Some, while admitting it to have a real existence, imagine that it sleeps in a state of insensibility from
Death to the Judgment - day, when it will awake from its sleep; while others will sooner admit anything than its real existence, maintaining that it is merely a vital power which is derived from arterial spirit on the action of the lungs, and being unable to
exist without body, perishes along with the body, and vanishes away and becomes evanescent
till the period when the whole man shall be raised again.
