[134] κοινότερον δὲ καὶ ταῦτα δύναται λέγεσθαι. εἴ ἐστί τι ὁ τόπος, ἤτοι σῶμὰ ἐστιν ἢ ἀσώματον· ἑκάτερον δὲ τούτων
ἀπορεῖται, ὡς ὑπεμνήσαμεν· καὶ ὁ τόπος ἄρα ἐστὶν ἄπο- ρος. ὁ τόπος πρὸς ἰῷ σώματι νοεῖται, οὗ ἐστι τόπος· ἄπορος δέ ἐστιν ὁ περὶ τῆς ὑπάρξεως τοῦ σώματος λόγος· καὶ ὁ περὶ τοῦ τόπου ἄρα. ὁ τόπος ἑκάστου ἀίδιος μὲν οὔκ ἐστιν, γίνεσθαι δὲ λεγόμενος ἀνυπόστατος εὑρίσκεται
γενέσεως μὴ ὑπαρχούσης.

[134] These objections may also be stated more generally.¹ If place is anything, it is either corporeal or incorporeal; but each of these alternatives is, as we have shown, disputed; therefore place is in dispute. Place is conceived in relation to the body whereof it is the place; but the doctrine of the reality of body is disputed, therefore that of place is likewise disputable. The place of each thing is not eternal, but if we say that it becomes it is found to be unreal as becoming does not exist.
