INCARNATE JUSTICE IS INDIVIDUAL; IF ABSOLUTE, IT IS INDIVISIBLE.

Must justice ever imply multiplicity if it consist in fulfilling its

proper function? Surely, as long as it inheres in a principle with

several parts (such as a human soul, in which several functions may

be distinguished); but its essence lies in the accomplishment of

the function proper to every being, even when inhering in a unitary

principle (such as Intelligence). Absolute and veritable Justice

consists in the self-directed action of an unitary Principle, in which

no parts can be distinguished.
