I will examine briefly the overarching Neoplatonic structure of the text; then I will explore in more detail some specific instances of Neoplatonic concepts being transposed from Latin into the vernacular. In other words, the text moves from purification (in the removal of bodily imperfections that will occur at the resurrection) to illumination (in heaven) to union (with other righteous souls and ultimately with God).\n The marginal and supralineal notes in die Bodleian manuscript demonstrate a concern with language, grammar, and etymology, which could represent the transitional stage between the expression in Latin of the types of ideas mentioned above by Plato, his commentators, and John Scottus Eriugena on the one hand, and the expression in Irish of similar philosophical concepts on the other, as Irish scholars developed a vernacular vocabulary to express the complex philosophical and dieological ideas of die twelfth century.
