We find then that the universe is not bounded   In any direction. If it were, it would need to have   An extremity. But nothing can have an extremity   Unless there is something outside to limit it, 960 Something beyond to bound it, some clear point   Further than which our senses cannot reach.   Now since we must admit that there is nothing   Beyond the sum of things, it has no extremity.   Therefore it has no end, nor any limit.   Nor does it matter in what part of it 965 You stand: wherever a man takes his place   It stretches always boundless, infinite.
