Heraclitus was positive that the world was composed of fire; and, by the order of destiny, was one day to be enflamed and consumed in fire, and then to be again renewed. And Apuleius says of men:
Heraklitok finkatzen zuen mundua suz osatua eta, halabeharraren manuaz, izeki eta sutan desegin behar egun batez, eta oraino egun batez ere birsortu.
