None believeth in the soul of man, but only in some man or person old and departed.

Summary

This quote suggests that people tend to believe in the existence of a soul only in the context of individuals who have passed away or in figures from the past. It implies that faith in the soul is often rooted in the belief in the existence and continuity of a specific person's essence after death, rather than acknowledging the concept of a soul as a universal and inherent part of every human being.
