I picked this sentence because of the last few words. The mysticism in them stood out to me. After doing the translation alignment, I've realized how many transition words the Greek uses.

Ἑλληνική Transliterate

English

οὐδενὶ γὰρ ἂν δόξειεν τοῦτʼ εἶναι ἡ τῶν ἀφροδισίων συνουσία , ὡς ἄρα τούτου ἕνεκα ἕτερος ἑτέρῳ χαίρει συνὼν οὕτως ἐπὶ μεγάλης σπουδῆς · ἀλλʼ ἄλλο τι βουλομένη ἑκατέρου ἡ ψυχὴ δήλη ἐστίν , ὃ οὐ δύναται εἰπεῖν , ἀλλὰ μαντεύεται ὃ βούλεται , καὶ αἰνίττεται .

No one can think it is for the sake of sexual intercourse that the one so eagerly delights in being with the other . Instead , the soul of each clearly wishes for something else it can ' t put into words ; it divines what it wishes , and obscurely hints at it .
