Generation of the Soul

The soul descends Corically [or after the manner of Proserpine] into generation, but is distributed into generation Dionysiacally,  and she is bound in body Prometheiacally  and Titanically: she frees herself therefore from its bonds by exercising the strength of Hercules; but she is collected into one through the assistance of Apollo and the savior Minerva, by philosophical discipline of mind and heart purifying the nature. – Olympiodorus
