Arts example; power as necessity, wisdom as fate, love as harmony
We find the same in the arts. For the architect necessarily sets the heavier and larger stones in the foundation, lest if placed in the roof they fall downward by their weight into the ruin of the house; the light ones and the timber he sets in the roof, because by necessity light things tend upward and heavy downward.
And this too happens by fate from the series of causes, that some things are light and small, others large and heavy, and that at the fitting time the architect needs them. And this at once results in harmony, because it is better for heavy things to be below and for light above — for their own sake, for the house more aptly formed and strengthened, and for the inhabitants' sake. And because what is better looks to love, what is ordered looks to wisdom, and what must be looks to the power of causes, therefore we call the influx of power necessity, of wisdom fate, of love harmony.
Latin
Idem in artibus invenimus. Nam architectus graviores amplioresque lapides necessario ponit in fundamento, ne in tecto positi pondere suo deorsum cadant in ruinam domus: leves et ligna in tecto, quia necessitate levia sursum, gravia deorsum tendunt. Hoc vero etiam fato fit ex causarum serie, ut alia sint levia et parva, alia grandia et gravia, et ut suo quoque tempore architectus iis indigat. Et hoc simul resultat in harmoniam, quia gravibus melius est esse infra, et levibus supra, tum gratia sui, tum gratia domus aptius formandae ac firmandae, tum gratia habitatorum. Et quia quod est melius respicit amor, et quod ordinatur respicit sapientia, et quod necesse est esse respicit potestas causarum, ideo influxum potestatis vocamus necessitatem, sapientiae fatum, amoris harmoniam.
