Ennead V.2 [11]: On the origin and order of the beings after the First
Περὶ γενέσεως καὶ τάξεως τῶν μετὰ τὸ πρῶτον
A brief account of procession: the One, being perfect, overflows, and what it produces turns back towards it and becomes Intellect; Intellect in turn produces Soul. "The One is all things and not one of them."
