Meditations · Book IX
Meditations, IX, 19
Chapter 19 of Book IX of the Meditations. First the passage as Stoïque shows it, after Long, 1862; then the whole chapter, word for word, in that edition, and the same chapter in French.
The passage in the app
All things are changing: and thou thyself art in continuous mutation and in a manner in continuous destruction, and the whole universe too.
— MARCUS AURELIUS · MEDITATIONS, IX, 19
After Long, 1862 — modernized.
On the widgets
Not every widget family holds a passage this long. The app never cuts one: where it does not fit, a shorter passage takes its place, with its reference. The circular widget carries the locator alone.
The whole chapter in Long’s 1862 edition
All things are changing: and thou thyself art in continuous mutation and in a manner in continuous destruction, and the whole universe too.

In French
Tout est dans un changement continuel. Toi-même tu ne cesses pas de changer et de mourir par quelque côté ; il en est de même de l’univers tout entier.

Tout est soumis au changement. Et toi-même tu es sujet à une perpétuelle modification, et, sous certains rapports, à une destruction perpétuelle. L’univers entier est comme toi.
