13885But_ we_,--how do we train_ our_ youth?
13885Do you bemoan Your side was stripped of oarage in the blast?

28Then the fellow in the tree came down to his comrade, and, laughing, said"What was it that Master Bruin whispered to you?"
28This proposal met with general applause, until an old mouse got up and said:"That is all very well, but who is to bell the Cat?"

10657Do you suppose that the Romans are employed every day in the outer fortifications for mere amusement?

10657That on my arrival, in the very first attack, I routed the enemy''s fleet?

10657Why should he expose soldiers to be wounded; who had deserved so well of him?

1175Perhaps you will retort:"Why should he trouble to go abroad to seek for such things?
1175Simonides answered laughingly: How say you, Hiero?

21189Agreed,rejoined the wolf,"I''ll go: But pray, what work am I to do?"
21189And so,said he, to him below,"How dare you stir the water so?
21189Be it so,said his friend,"but what sound do I hear?
21189But pray,said the lion,"who sculptured that stone?"
21189But then there''s their barley; how much will they need? 21189 Do you not know, my friend,"says he,"Bird, beast, fish, reptile, man agree, To live henceforth in amity?
21189Elf, durst thou call me, vile pretender?
21189How d''ye do?
21189How so? 21189 Ill luck to my hurry, what now shall I do?
21189Is that the case?
21189My brother, What can the matter be? 21189 Now is not this to be preferr''d To your green peas?"
21189Now,thought he,"what''s the reason, I can not see any, That I have no favors, while he has so many?
21189Pray,said the satyr,"may I know For what you blow your fingers so?"
21189Six shillings a pair-- five-- four-- three- and- six, To prevent all mistakes, that low price I will fix; Now what will that make? 21189 So,"says he,"do n''t be prating,--look yonder, I pray, At that sculpture of marble, now what will you say?
21189Was it not then because of us,Said elephant,"that you descended?"
21189What was his trade?
21189What?
21189Whose voice is that which growls at mine?
21189A crab one day her daughter chid;"You never do as you are bid, Have I not told you o''er and o''er, That awkward gait to use no more?
21189A travell''d swallow, learn''d and wise, To all his feather''d neighbors cries:"See you yon laborers there below; What is it, think ye, that they sow?
21189A youth ask''d why so long in bed?
21189And lift the axle from the bog; Think''st thou Gods nothing have to do But listen to such knaves as you?"
21189But what d''ye call_ that_, hanging there?
21189Can thy weak warbling dare approach the thrush Or blackbird''s accents in the hawthorn bush?
21189Cries one of these, with saucy sneer, To a plain fig- tree growing near,"How comes it, honest friend, that thou Dost in the spring no blossoms show?"
21189Do you not see That you''re the noisiest of the three?
21189Eat sheep, and why not?
21189Echo as stern cried,"Who art thou?"
21189From this small hill you see a space Extended far beneath your view, I like it much; pray do not you?
21189Hast thou no bowels for thy kind?
21189Have I not learn''d from you to walk?
21189How should we read his will, And know that which from us he would conceal?
21189Idiot, what warning would''st thou have?
21189If bees a government maintain, Why may not rats of stronger brain And greater power, as well bethought By Machiavelian axioms taught?
21189Is it a sin?
21189Is it an iron chain, or what?"
21189Is this the knowledge to which we aspire, Is it an error or a crime thus to believe That future destiny can thus be known?
21189Is this your gratitude?"
21189Let me your story comprehend: Your bull, you say, my ox has gored?"
21189Now in Chance there can no science be, Or why should it be called by them_ Chance_-- And things uncertain, who knows in advance?
21189One day he bid the man attend-- And,"Well,"says he,"my honest friend, How is it that so well you thrive?
21189Or with the lark dost thou poor mimic, vie, Or nightingale''s unequal''d melody?
21189Others beneath their noon- tide sun-- Time''s deepest lines engrave thy brow, And dost thou hesitate to go?
21189Pray, what may be the profit clear, That you can earn within the year?"
21189Said the other,"Oh, what shall we do?"
21189So said he,"Is it you?
21189The carter to the porker turned,"Where have you manners learned, Why stun us all?
21189The lad entreats his life to save: The Don replies with aspect grave,"Sirrah, what business had you there?
21189The rustic then his axe did take,"Is this then the return you make?
21189This done they next were thus address''d:"Two lubbers on a little beast?
21189Were I to move the other way, How could I follow you I pray?"
21189What more?
21189What must be done?"
21189Where are you?
21189Which of the two best loved the other?
21189cried he,"Shall I take the life Of a musical bird like this?
21189do you so?"
21189foolish kite, thou hadst no wing, How could''st thou fly without a string?
21189is it a vice?
21189quoth he,"what have we here?
21189said his host, in accent rough,"Is not your pottage hot enough?"
21189says the Lion:"Who art thou?"
21189she cried,"puss are you there?
21189your''s, my friend?
1572''And what was the subject of the poem?''
1572''If they are the same, why have they different names; or if they are different, why have they the same name?''
1572''What do you mean?''
1572And how was the tale transferred to the poem of Solon?
1572And is all that which we call an intelligible essence nothing at all, and only a name?
1572And is the thought expressed in them to be attributed to the learning of the Egyptian priest, and not rather to the genius of Plato?
1572And what was the tale about, Critias?
1572And whence came the tradition to Egypt?
1572And( b) what proof is there that the axis of the world revolves at all?
1572Are not the words,''The truth of the story is a great advantage,''if we read between the lines, an indication of the fiction?
1572Are we right in saying that there is one world, or that they are many and infinite?
1572But are probabilities for which there is not a tittle of evidence, and which are without any parallel, to be deemed worthy of attention by the critic?
1572But then why, when things are divided after their kinds, do they not cease from motion?
1572Did Plato derive the legend of Atlantis from an Egyptian source?
1572For how can that which is divided be like that which is undivided?
1572Has not disease been regarded, like sin, sometimes as a negative and necessary, sometimes as a positive or malignant principle?
1572Have not many discussions arisen about the Atomic theory in which a point has been confused with a material atom?
1572Have not the natures of things been explained by imaginary entities, such as life or phlogiston, which exist in the mind only?
1572How came the poem of Solon to disappear in antiquity?
1572How can matter be conceived to exist without form?
1572How can we doubt the word of the children of the Gods?
1572How can we doubt the word of the children of the gods?
1572How or where shall we find another if we abandon this?
1572How, then, shall we settle this point, and what questions about the elements may be fairly raised?
1572In what relation does the archetype stand to the Creator himself?
1572Indeed, when it is in every direction similar, how can one rightly give to it names which imply opposition?
1572Is there any self- existent fire?
1572May they not have had, like the animals, an instinct of something more than they knew?
1572May we not claim for Plato an anticipation of modern ideas as about some questions of astronomy and physics, so also about medicine?
1572Or is there anything more, my dear Timaeus, which has been omitted?
1572Or rather was not the proposal too singular to be forgotten?
1572Or that which is changing be the copy of that which is unchanging?
1572Or, how can the essences or forms of things be distinguished from the eternal ideas, or essence itself from the soul?
1572Or, how could space or anything else have been eternal when time is only created?
1572Or, how could the Creator have taken portions of an indivisible same?
1572Or, how could the surfaces of geometrical figures have formed solids?
1572Or, how could there have been a time when the world was not, if time was not?
1572Or, how could there have been motion in the chaos when as yet time was not?
1572Or, how did chaos come into existence, if not by the will of the Creator?
1572Plato himself proposes the question, Why does motion continue at all when the elements are settled in their places?
1572SOCRATES: And what about the procreation of children?
1572SOCRATES: And what did we say of their education?
1572SOCRATES: Did we not begin by separating the husbandmen and the artisans from the class of defenders of the State?
1572SOCRATES: Do you remember what were the points of which I required you to speak?
1572SOCRATES: One, two, three; but where, my dear Timaeus, is the fourth of those who were yesterday my guests and are to be my entertainers to- day?
1572SOCRATES: Then have I now given you all the heads of our yesterday''s discussion?
1572The prelude is charming, and is already accepted by us-- may we beg of you to proceed to the strain?
1572This being supposed, let us proceed to the next stage: In the likeness of what animal did the Creator make the world?
1572This is the greatest boon of sight: and of the lesser benefits why should I speak?
1572Were they not to be trained in gymnastic, and music, and all other sorts of knowledge which were proper for them?
1572What is this but the atoms of Democritus and the triangles of Plato?
1572What makes fire burn?
1572What nature are we to attribute to this new kind of being?
1572When we accuse them of being under the influence of words, do we suppose that we are altogether free from this illusion?
1572and do all those things which we call self- existent exist?
1572or are only those things which we see, or in some way perceive through the bodily organs, truly existent, and nothing whatever besides them?
1572or created, and had it a beginning?
1572or in what does the story consist except in the war between the two rival powers and the submersion of both of them?
1572or why did Plato, if the whole narrative was known to him, break off almost at the beginning of it?
1677ALCIBIADES: And how long must I wait, Socrates, and who will be my teacher?
1677ALCIBIADES: Certainly not: for then what use could I make of them?
1677ALCIBIADES: How do you mean?
1677ALCIBIADES: How do you mean?
1677ALCIBIADES: How in the world, Socrates, do the words of the poet apply to him?
1677ALCIBIADES: Of what do you suppose that I am thinking?
1677ALCIBIADES: What is that, Socrates?
1677ALCIBIADES: Why, Socrates, how is that possible?
1677ALCIBIADES: Yes, Socrates, but you are speaking of a madman: surely you do not think that any one in his senses would venture to make such a prayer?
1677And was not his prayer accomplished, and did not many and terrible evils thence arise, upon which I need not dilate?
1677But perhaps we may consider the matter thus:-- ALCIBIADES: How?
1677Can ignorance possibly be better than knowledge for any person in any conceivable case?
1677Consider, my dear friend: may it not be quite otherwise?
1677Did we not?
1677Do you not speak of one who knows what is best in riding as a good rider?
1677For tell me, by heaven, do you not think that in the city the wise are few, while the foolish, whom you call mad, are many?
1677For we acknowledged that there are these two classes?
1677In such a case should we not be right if we said that the state would be full of anarchy and lawlessness?
1677May we not take an illustration from the artizans?
1677Or do you believe that a man may labour under some other disease, even although he has none of these complaints?
1677Or do you think that Orestes, had he been in his senses and knew what was best for him to do, would ever have dared to venture on such a crime?
1677Or is there a difference between the clever artist and the wise man?
1677Or what is your opinion?
1677SOCRATES: A man must either be sick or be well?
1677SOCRATES: And again, there are some who are in health?
1677SOCRATES: And both to the person who is ignorant and everybody else?
1677SOCRATES: And every disease ophthalmia?
1677SOCRATES: And if he do the contrary, both he and the state will suffer?
1677SOCRATES: And if you made many attempts, and each time failed to recognize Pericles, you would never attack him?
1677SOCRATES: And in a similar way you speak of a good boxer or a good flute- player or a good performer in any other art?
1677SOCRATES: And is every kind of ophthalmia a disease?
1677SOCRATES: And must every sick person either have the gout, or be in a fever, or suffer from ophthalmia?
1677SOCRATES: And some men seem to you to be discreet, and others the contrary?
1677SOCRATES: And that there is no third or middle term between discretion and indiscretion?
1677SOCRATES: And there can not be two opposites to one thing?
1677SOCRATES: And there is still another case which will also perhaps appear strange to you, if you will consider it?
1677SOCRATES: And they are not the same?
1677SOCRATES: And would you accept them if you were likely to use them to a bad and mischievous end?
1677SOCRATES: And you regard those as sensible who know what ought to be done or said?
1677SOCRATES: And you use both the terms,''wise''and''foolish,''in reference to something?
1677SOCRATES: Are you going, Alcibiades, to offer prayer to Zeus?
1677SOCRATES: But how could we live in safety with so many crazy people?
1677SOCRATES: But is it necessary that the man who is clever in any of these arts should be wise also in general?
1677SOCRATES: But ought we not then, think you, either to fancy that we know or really to know, what we confidently propose to do or say?
1677SOCRATES: But were you not saying that you would call the many unwise and the few wise?
1677SOCRATES: Did you not acknowledge that madness was the opposite of discretion?
1677SOCRATES: For you designed to kill, not the first who offered, but Pericles himself?
1677SOCRATES: He did not intend to slay the first woman he came across, nor any one else''s mother, but only his own?
1677SOCRATES: He must be either sane or insane?
1677SOCRATES: Ignorance, then, is better for those who are in such a frame of mind, and have such ideas?
1677SOCRATES: Madness, then, you consider to be the opposite of discretion?
1677SOCRATES: Nor again, I suppose, a person who knows the art of war, but does not know whether it is better to go to war or for how long?
1677SOCRATES: Nor are there any who are in neither state?
1677SOCRATES: Nor would any one else, I fancy?
1677SOCRATES: So I believe:--you do not think so?
1677SOCRATES: That ignorance is bad then, it would appear, which is of the best and does not know what is best?
1677SOCRATES: The latter will say or do what they ought not without their own knowledge?
1677SOCRATES: The many are foolish, the few wise?
1677SOCRATES: The senseless are those who do not know this?
1677SOCRATES: Then madness and want of sense are the same?
1677SOCRATES: Very good: and do you think the same about discretion and want of discretion?
1677SOCRATES: We are agreed, then, that every form of ophthalmia is a disease, but not every disease ophthalmia?
1677SOCRATES: Well, and are you of the same mind, as before?
1677SOCRATES: Well, but if Orestes in like manner had not known his mother, do you think that he would ever have laid hands upon her?
1677SOCRATES: While others are ailing?
1677SOCRATES: Would you call a person wise who can give advice, but does not know whether or when it is better to carry out the advice?
1677SOCRATES: Yet you would not accept the dominion and lordship of all the Hellenes and all the barbarians in exchange for your life?
1677SOCRATES: You acknowledge that for some persons in certain cases the ignorance of some things is a good and not an evil, as you formerly supposed?
1677SOCRATES:--If, then, you went indoors, and seeing him, did not know him, but thought that he was some one else, would you venture to slay him?
1677Surely, they are not the only maladies which exist?
1677Their envoys were also to ask,''Why the Gods always granted the victory to the Lacedaemonians?''
1677We acknowledge that some are discreet, some foolish, and that some are mad?
1677We think that some are sick; do we not?
1677What do you think?
1677You would distinguish the wise from the foolish?
47678And can any person call my precepts harsh?
47678And who is there that has not a thousand causes for anxiety?
47678But do you believe that, in her oaths, neither words( for what is there more deceptive than them?)
47678Colchian damsel, what did the herbs of the Phasian land avail thee, when thou didst desire to remain in thy native home?
47678Do you enquire what I would advise you about the gifts of Bacchus?
47678Do you enquire why Ægisthus became an adulterer?
47678Do you perceive how the yoke, at first, galls the oxen when caught?
47678If you inquire where you are to find them?
47678Of what use is it to rekindle the feelings, that have cooled, by my advice?
47678Of what use, Circe, were the herbs of thy mother Persia to thee, when the favouring breeze bore away the barks of Neritos?
47678Suppose that, although you shall have absented yourself, you return both hungry and thirsty; will not all this delay even act to your detriment?
47678That you may be healed in spirit, will you refuse to submit to anything?
47678What am I to do?
47678What but the solitary woods injured Phyllis?
47678What is the cause of thy flight?
47678What less can he prayed for by my entreaties?
47678What place can there be there for_ gentle_ dalliance?
47678What think you of the man who lies concealed, and beholds sights that usage itself forbids him to see?
47678Whither are you flying?
47678Who can read in safety the lines of Tibullus, or thine, thou, whose sole subject Cynthia was?
47678Who could endure Thais performing the part of Andromache?
47678Who, after reading Gallus, could retire with obdurate feelings?
47678Who, but one bereft of understanding, would forbid a mother to weep at the death of her son?
47678Why be moved by a dumb likeness?
47678Why dost thou weep, troublesome old man?
47678Why has one person, tying up his neck[ 1202] by the tightened halter, hung, a sad burden, from the lofty beam?
47678Why occupy myself with illustrations, the number of which exhausts me?
47678Why was there no one to court Hecale,[ 1275] no one to court Iras?
47678Why, Menelaiis, dost thou grieve?
47678Why, with the hard iron, has another pierced his own entrails?
47678Will you, with hesitation, commit the words of perfidy to the flames?
47678and yet she was not;"How much does she beg of her lover?"
47678how the new girth hurts the flying steed?
47678the son of Atreus perceived this; for what could he not see, under whose command was the whole of Greece?
5224But you men, who boast idly of your wisdom, but are in reality worthless brutes, what strange disease provokes you to outrage one another unnaturally?
5224Oh, who would dare to touch a subject handled by Diderot?
5224Or is it that this Mirabeau was merely careless?
5224What blind folly fills your minds, that you commit the two- fold error of avoiding what you should pursue, and pursuing what you should avoid?
5224Who does not admire the noble independence, the conjugal love, and the matronly virtues of Agrippina, the wife of Germanicus?
5224Who was it who first looked upon the male as female, violating him by force or villainous persuasion?
5224Why should we not pursue those pleasures which are mutual, which cause equal enjoyment to those who receive and to those who afford them?
5224should one love Phoedrus, remembering Lysias, whom he betrayed?
5218Did Encolpius drink all the satyrion there was in the house?
5218Is that so,Quartilla scoffed,"is she any younger than I was, when I submitted to my first man?
5218Madame,I burst out,"is this the night- cap which you ordered served to me?"
5218Please, mother,I wheedled,"you do n''t know where I lodge, do you?"
5218So you thought,said she,"that you could make a fool of me, did you?
5218What should I have done, you triple fool, when I was dying of hunger? 5218 What was it?"
5218What''s going on here, a blanket- wedding?
5218What''s that you say? 5218 Who is there?"
5218Given away by my laughter, the maid clapped her hands and cried,"I put one by you, young man; did you drink so much all by yourself?"
5218Not so Ascyltos, who was afraid of the law, and demurred,"Who knows us here?
5218Of what avail are any laws, where money rules alone, Where Poverty can never win its cases?
5218Since that, who has attained to the sublimity of Thucydides, who rivalled the fame of Hyperides?
5218Was I not a''brother''to you in the pleasure- garden, in the same sense as that in which this boy now is in this lodging- house?"
5218What ought we to do, and how shall we make good our claim?"
5218What, then, is there to do?
5218When this repartee had drawn to a close, Ascyltos exclaimed,"Do n''t I deserve a drink?"
5218Who could rival Arthur Golding''s rendering of the Metamorphoses of Ovid, or Francis Hicke''s masterly rendering of Lucian''s True History?
5218Who will place any credence in anything we say?
5218Who, today, could imbue a translation of the Golden Ass with the exquisite flavor of William Adlington''s unscholarly version of that masterpiece?
5218Why should n''t our pretty little Pannychis lose her maidenhead when the opportunity is so favorable?"
5218Wo n''t you hold your tongue, you nocturnal assassin, who, even when you swived it bravely, never entered the lists with a decent woman in your life?
5218she demanded;"where did you learn such tricks?
1635''Then why in this city of Athens, in which men of merit are always being sought after, is he not at once appointed a general?''

1635And if I were to ask whether I and you became acquainted with this fact by the help of the same art of arithmetic, you would acknowledge that we did?
1635And will they not choose Ion the Ephesian to be their general, and honour him, if he prove himself worthy?
1635Are not these the themes of which Homer sings?
1635Are you from your native city of Ephesus?
1635As he does not know all of them, which of them will he know?
1635But just now I should like to ask you a question: Does your art extend to Hesiod and Archilochus, or to Homer only?
1635But let me ask a prior question: You admit that there are differences of arts?
1635Do you mean to say that the art of the rhapsode and of the general is the same?
1635Do you think that the Hellenes want a rhapsode with his golden crown, and do not want a general?
1635Does not Homer speak of the same themes which all other poets handle?
1635For the rhapsode ought to interpret the mind of the poet to his hearers, but how can he interpret him well unless he knows what he means?
1635Have you already forgotten what you were saying?
1635ION: And what is there in Homer of which I have no knowledge?
1635ION: Who may he be?
1635ION: Why, what am I forgetting?
1635Is not war his great argument?
1635Let us consider this matter; is not the art of painting a whole?
1635Must the same art have the same subject of knowledge, and different arts other subjects of knowledge?
1635Now would you say that the art of the rhapsode or the art of medicine was better able to judge of the propriety of these lines?
1635Now, Ion, will the charioteer or the physician be the better judge of the propriety of these lines?
1635SOCRATES: And Homer in a better way?
1635SOCRATES: And are you aware that you produce similar effects on most of the spectators?
1635SOCRATES: And are you the best general, Ion?
1635SOCRATES: And can you interpret better what Homer says, or what Hesiod says, about these matters in which they agree?
1635SOCRATES: And do not the other poets sing of the same?
1635SOCRATES: And do the Epidaurians have contests of rhapsodes at the festival?
1635SOCRATES: And he who is a good general is also a good rhapsode?
1635SOCRATES: And he who judges of the good will be the same as he who judges of the bad speakers?
1635SOCRATES: And he will be the arithmetician?
1635SOCRATES: And if a different knowledge, then a knowledge of different matters?
1635SOCRATES: And if you judged of performers on the lyre, you would admit that you judged of them as a performer on the lyre, and not as a horseman?
1635SOCRATES: And if you knew the good speaker, you would also know the inferior speakers to be inferior?
1635SOCRATES: And if you were a prophet, would you not be able to interpret them when they disagree as well as when they agree?
1635SOCRATES: And in judging of the general''s art, do you judge of it as a general or a rhapsode?
1635SOCRATES: And the art of the rhapsode is different from that of the charioteer?
1635SOCRATES: And there are and have been many painters good and bad?
1635SOCRATES: And this is true of all the arts;--that which we know with one art we do not know with the other?
1635SOCRATES: And were you one of the competitors-- and did you succeed?
1635SOCRATES: And who is he, and what is his name?
1635SOCRATES: And will the reason be that this is his art, or will there be any other reason?
1635SOCRATES: And you admitted that being different they would have different subjects of knowledge?
1635SOCRATES: And you are the best of Hellenic rhapsodes?
1635SOCRATES: And you rhapsodists are the interpreters of the poets?
1635SOCRATES: Are there any things about which Homer and Hesiod agree?
1635SOCRATES: At any rate he will know what a general ought to say when exhorting his soldiers?
1635SOCRATES: But he will know what a slave ought to say?
1635SOCRATES: But he will know what a spinning- woman ought to say about the working of wool?
1635SOCRATES: But how did you come to have this skill about Homer only, and not about Hesiod or the other poets?
1635SOCRATES: Do you know that the spectator is the last of the rings which, as I am saying, receive the power of the original magnet from one another?
1635SOCRATES: Do you mean that a rhapsode will know better than the pilot what the ruler of a sea- tossed vessel ought to say?
1635SOCRATES: Do you not remember that you declared the art of the rhapsode to be different from the art of the charioteer?
1635SOCRATES: Is not the same person skilful in both?
1635SOCRATES: My good Ion, did you never hear of Apollodorus of Cyzicus?
1635SOCRATES: Nor do we know by the art of the carpenter that which we know by the art of medicine?
1635SOCRATES: Or will the rhapsode know better than the physician what the ruler of a sick man ought to say?
1635SOCRATES: Surely not about things in Homer of which you have no knowledge?
1635SOCRATES: Tell me, then, what I was intending to ask you,--whether this holds universally?
1635SOCRATES: Then he who has no knowledge of a particular art will have no right judgment of the sayings and doings of that art?
1635SOCRATES: Then he who is a good rhapsode is also a good general?
1635SOCRATES: Then upon your own showing the rhapsode, and the art of the rhapsode, will not know everything?
1635SOCRATES: Then which will be a better judge of the lines which you were reciting from Homer, you or the charioteer?
1635SOCRATES: Then you are the interpreters of interpreters?
1635SOCRATES: Well, but is the art of the rhapsode the art of the general?
1635SOCRATES: What do you mean?
1635SOCRATES: What, in a worse way?
1635SOCRATES: Why, does not Homer speak in many passages about arts?
1635SOCRATES: You would argue, as I should, that when one art is of one kind of knowledge and another of another, they are different?
1635Was not this the lesson which the God intended to teach when by the mouth of the worst of poets he sang the best of songs?
1635Were not the Ephesians originally Athenians, and Ephesus is no mean city?
1635Which do you prefer to be thought, dishonest or inspired?
1635Would he rather be regarded as inspired or dishonest?''
1635Would you like me to explain my meaning, Ion?
1635You ask,''Why is this?''
1635what is happening to you?
11448But why talk of Gavius? 11448 What has a Jew to do with_ pork_?"
11448What makes an action right or wrong? 11448 What reason is there", he asks,"why, when I have bought, built, repaired, and laid out much money, another shall come and enjoy the fruits of it?"
11448What should induce the Deity to perform the functions of an Aedile, to light up and decorate the world? 11448 What will history say of me six hundred years hence?"
11448Who does not know what my return home was like? 11448 Wouldest thou propitiate the gods?
11448Yea, was his reply;"but where are those commemorated who were drowned?"
11448After all, what is our eyesight worth?
11448And I should like to ask them how they hid themselves, and where?
11448And did you even think that I was unwilling to see you?
11448And lastly( a point of casuistry which must sometimes perplex the strictest conscience), of two''things honest'',[2] which is most so?"
11448And what is this courage?
11448And what is this pleasure which he makes of such high account?
11448But we do not understand even our own bodies; how, then, can we have an eyesight so piercing as to penetrate the mysteries of heaven and earth?"
11448But what consolation can we bring to ease the pain of the Epicurean?
11448But what says Milo?
11448But who is to fix the limit to such vague concessions?
11448But why, continues Cicero, why add to the miseries of life by brooding over death?
11448Can anything console the sufferer?
11448Could I possibly be angry with you?...
11448Did we not say that Cicero was modern, not ancient?
11448Did you really fear that I was angry, because I sent off the slaves without any letter to you?
11448Do you remember that before you put on the robe of manhood, you were a bankrupt?
11448Few modern brothers, probably, would write to each other in such terms as these:"Afraid lest your letters bother me?
11448For if formerly, when you had good examples to imitate, you were still not much of a proficient in that way, how can I suppose you will get on now?
11448He here resolves the question, If honour and interest seem to clash, which is to give way?
11448How can I describe those days, when all kept holiday, as though it were some high festival of the immortal gods, in joy for my safe return?
11448How could a man best bear pain and the other miseries of life?
11448How shall I learn to choose between my principles and my interests?
11448How the people of Brundusium held out to me, as I might say, the right hand of welcome on behalf of all my native land?
11448I angry with you?
11448I very nearly collapsed, gentlemen, when a man asked me what day I had left Rome, and whether there was any news stirring?
11448I wish you would bother me, and re- bother me, and talk to me and at me; for what can give me more pleasure?
11448If such improvements gave him pleasure, why should he have chosen to be without them so long?"
11448Is idleness the divinest life?
11448Is it an unmixed evil?
11448Is life to any of us such unmixed pleasure even while it lasts?
11448It is an important question, how, and when, and to whom, we should give?
11448It professed to answer, so far as it might be answered Pilate''s question,"What is truth?"
11448May we not argue still more strongly in the case of the gods?
11448The fifth and last book discusses the great question, Is virtue of itself sufficient to make life happy?
11448The very first words I said to him were,''How did you get on with our friend Paetus?''
11448Then comes the question, What_ is_ this nature that is so precious to each of us?
11448Then he proceeds:"Would you like us, then, to examine into your course of life from boyhood?
11448Then, rising to enthusiasm, the philosopher concludes:"Who can not but admire the incredible beauty of such a system of morality?
11448Was death an evil?
11448Was the soul immortal?
11448Was virtue any guarantee for happiness?
11448What character in history or in fiction can be grander or more consistent than the''wise man''of the Stoics?
11448What else can be this power which enables us to recollect the past, to foresee the future, to understand the present?
11448What is a duty?
11448What is expediency?
11448What need to dwell upon the charm of the green fields, the well- ordered plantations, the beauty of the vineyards and olive- groves?
11448What pleasure ever had I without you, or you without me?"
11448What reverence, what love, or what fear can men have of beings who neither wish them, nor can work them, good or ill?
11448What shall I say of the fact that fire, and red- hot plates, and other tortures were applied?
11448What, after all, are a man''s real interests?
11448When the man asked--''Whether anybody wanted to know anything?''
11448Which of us can tell whether he be taken away from good or from evil?
11448Who at one time was a greater favourite with our most illustrious men?
11448Who could be more greedy of money than he was?
11448Who could lavish it more profusely?
11448Who was a closer intimate with our very basest?
11448Who would have asked your help, we should answer, if these difficulties had not arisen?
11448Why feed your misfortune by dwelling on it?
11448Why grieve at all?
11448Why need I speak of my arrival at each place?
11448Why then call it wretched, even if we die before our natural time?
11448Why uphold a theory so dangerous in practice?
11448Why, exclaims the Stoic, introduce Pleasure to the councils of Virtue?
11448Why, then, did the Deity, when he made everything for the sake of man, make such a variety( for instance) of venomous reptiles?
11448With what powers of voice, with what force of language, with what sufficient indignation of soul, can I tell the tale?
11448do n''t you know that he was Quaestor at_ Syracuse_?''
11448how the people crowded the streets in the towns; how they flocked in from the country-- fathers of families with wives and children?
11448what line of conduct will best advance the main end of his life?
11448whose are?
11448yes, to be sure'', said he;''Africa, I believe?''
11339Afraid of a Mouse?
11339And how much might you be wanting for that one over there, now?
11339And may I ask if you have found one?
11339And what do you think of my subjects?
11339As big as...?
11339Come down,he called,"and be eaten: you remember our agreement?"
11339Dear me,said the latter,"how do you do?
11339Enormous, was he? 11339 Good?"
11339How can I?
11339Is that all?
11339Matter?
11339May we ask,said they,"what you were doing with yourself all last summer?
11339My dear friend,said the Lion,"how did you get the knack of it so well?"
11339Oho,he said,"so that''s what you''d be doing, is it?"
11339That one?
11339Was he as big as this?
11339Well, what about it?
11339What a coward you were,said he;"surely you did n''t think the Lion meant any harm?
11339What happened to Demeter?
11339What have I done to you,said the Vine,"that you should harm me thus?
11339What is the use,said he,"of being beautiful, with a voice like mine?"
11339What sort of bird is it, father?
11339What''s in a tuft of hair?
11339Why do you do that?
11339Why do you do that?
11339Why do you sigh?
11339You have not been altogether useless, I grant you,said the Man:"but who killed the fowls?
11339You impudent bird,said the Cat,"how dare you, a newcomer, make a noise like that?
11339A fox, who had seen it all happen, said to the Lion,"Come, do n''t be a coward: why do n''t you stay and show fight?"
11339A friend of the Rider''s met him in the road in his headlong career, and called out,"Where are you off to in such a hurry?"
11339Are n''t you aware of the risk you are running of being captured by the herdsmen?"
11339As soon as he saw the Fox he cried,"You scoundrel, what do you mean by trying to lure me to my death like that?
11339But the Ass just looked round lazily and said,"And if so, do you think they''ll make me carry heavier loads than I have to now?"
11339But the Fisherman replied,"Oh, no, I shall keep you now I''ve got you: if I put you back, should I ever see you again?
11339But what will become of us if he marries and begets other Suns?"
11339But, my dear friend, what in the world makes you wear those ugly horns?
11339Does n''t that prove to you that we are stronger than you?"
11339Fortune was displeased at this, and came to him and said,"My man, why do you give Earth the credit for the gift which I bestowed upon you?
11339He replied that he was in a very bad way:"But,"said he,"why do you stand outside?
11339How comes it, then, that you have failed to disarm the enmity of men?"
11339How will you get the birds to come to your nets?"
11339If you are my enemy, why do you play with me?"
11339If you are my friend, why do you bite me?
11339Is n''t there grass enough for you to feed on?
11339Just then a gnat came humming by, and the Elephant said,"Do you see that wretched little buzzing insect?
11339Looking up at the intruder, she said,"Who may you be, and where have you come from?"
11339On the road they met a troop of girls, laughing and talking, who exclaimed,"Did you ever see such a pair of fools?
11339Pray, how are our departed friends getting on there?"
11339Presently one of the Oxen said to him,"What has induced you to come in here?
11339Presently some other dogs met him, and said,"Well, what sort of a dinner did you get?"
11339So how shall I be able to come up with either of you when the debt falls due?"
11339Suddenly Mercury appeared, and belaboured him with his staff, saying as he did so,"You villain, where''s your nice sense of justice now?"
11339THE CRAB AND HIS MOTHER An Old Crab said to her son,"Why do you walk sideways like that, my son?
11339THE WOLVES AND THE DOGS Once upon a time the Wolves said to the Dogs,"Why should we continue to be enemies any longer?
11339The Cock replied,"Would you just wake my porter who sleeps at the foot of the tree?
11339The Fox heard him, and recognised him at once for the Ass he was, and said to him,"Oho, my friend, it''s you, is it?
11339The Fox replied,"Me?
11339The Wolf thanked her warmly, and was just turning away, when she cried,"What about that fee of mine?"
11339The gift of a friend, perhaps, eh?"
11339The latter was a good deal surprised to see him back so soon, and said,"Why, do you mean to say you have tested him already?"
11339Their remarks were overheard by the Dog, who spoke up at once and said,"Yes, and quite right, too: where would you be if it was n''t for me?
11339Then he said,"Since you and I are in like case, shall we not do well to marry and live together?
11339Then the Dog said in disgust,"Oh, throw it away, do: what''s the good of a thing like that?"
11339Then the King summoned his subjects and addressed them as follows:"What folly could be greater than yours?
11339Was he as big as this?"
11339What does your strength amount to after all?
11339What more do you want?"
11339When it had rested sufficiently and was about to fly away, it said to the Bull,"Do you mind if I go now?"
11339When the Boy heard it, he said,"You abandoned creatures, how can you find heart to whistle when your houses are burning?"
11339When the Cock saw what he was after, he too pleaded for his life, and said,"If you kill me, how will you know the time of night?
11339When the Woman heard his cries, she came and said,"Why, are you weeping still?"
11339When the coast was clear the timid one ran back, and, flourishing his weapon, cried in a threatening voice,"Where is he?
11339Where are all your gay trappings now?"
11339Who stole the meat?
11339Why did n''t you collect a store of food for the winter?"
11339Why do you make such a noise when we do all the work?"
11339Why, how can you set up to heal others when you can not even cure your own lame legs and blotched and wrinkled skin?"
11339Why, what will you do without me next time you go fowling?
11339Will you be pleased to accept it?"
11339Will you not play me a tune to dance to before I die?"
11339Wo n''t you come in and join me?"
11339You do n''t think, do you, that your bell was given you as a reward of merit?
11339and who will wake you up in the morning when it is time to get to work?"
11339said he, laughing;"and"( pointing to one of Juno)"how much is that one?"
5220Encolpius,said he,"I beseech you, I appeal to your honest recollection, did I leave you, or did you throw me over?
5220How many of you are there?
5220Is this the way in which you keep your promise not to recite a single verse today?
5220Since when have men in your outfit gone on pass in white shoes?
5220So you threaten, do you''?
5220Tell me,I demanded,"what are you going to do about that disease of yours?
5220''Is n''t there something you''d like to do?''
5220''Tell me, master,''he cried,''where''s the pacer?''
5220And as to the other, what about him?
5220And who condemned me to this desolation''?
5220Did I merit such an affront''?"
5220If not, why the axes?
5220Or stand and freeze In icy blasts, when near a cozy fire?
5220Then why, you demand, are you dressed so shabbily?
5220What can you say that will justify you in yielding your love to a stranger?
5220What fool would thirst upon a river''s brink?
5220What has become of logic?
5220What legion are you from?
5220What''s the meaning of all these sneaking preparations?
5220Where is the exquisite road to wisdom?
5220Who even goes into a temple to make a vow, that he may achieve eloquence or bathe in the fountain of wisdom?
5220Who goes there?
5220Who turned up that bed there?
5220Who''s your centurion?"
5220of astronomy?
1681And is virtue in your opinion, Prodicus, innate or acquired by instruction?
1681Are not certain things useful to the builder when he is building a house?
1681But do we not deem those men who are most prosperous to be the happiest?
1681But how do you mean, Socrates?
1681But if we are further asked, What is that from which, if we were free, we should have no need of wealth?
1681But surely, if they were a good, they could not appear bad for any one?
1681But what particular thing is wealth, if not all things?
1681But when have we the greatest and the most various needs, when we are sick or when we are well?
1681But why do you not finish the argument which proves that gold and silver and other things which seem to be wealth are not real wealth?
1681But why, as you have begun your argument so prettily, do you not go on with the rest?
1681CRITIAS: And does injustice seem to you an evil or a good?
1681CRITIAS: And if the wicked man has wealth and is willing to spend it, he will carry out his evil purposes?
1681CRITIAS: I should like to follow up the argument, and will ask Eryxias whether he thinks that there are just and unjust men?
1681CRITIAS: Well, and do you think that some men are intemperate?
1681Can ignorance, for instance, be useful for knowledge, or disease for health, or vice for virtue?
1681Can you repeat the discourse to us?
1681Do we not employ in our intercourse with one another speech and violence(?)
1681ERASISTRATUS: What would you wish to hear first?
1681For do we not say that silver is useful because it enables us to supply our bodily needs?
1681For instance, some men are gamblers, some drunkards, and some gluttons: and gambling and the love of drink and greediness are all desires?
1681For what man of sense could ever be persuaded that the wisest and the richest are the same?
1681For who has larger estates or more land at his disposal to cultivate if he please?
1681He was about to add something more, when Critias interrupted him:--Do you really suppose so, Eryxias?
1681Or how could he be the richest of men who might even have to go begging, because he had not wherewithal to live?
1681Or is wisdom despised of men and can find no buyers, although cypress wood and marble of Pentelicus are eagerly bought by numerous purchasers?
1681Or, again, should you call sickness a good or an evil?
1681SOCRATES: And also the instruments by which wealth is procured?
1681SOCRATES: And are not the healthy richer than the sick, since health is a possession more valuable than riches to the sick?
1681SOCRATES: And are they not most prosperous who commit the fewest errors in respect either of themselves or of other men?
1681SOCRATES: And do we think it possible that a thing should be useful for a purpose unless we have need of it for that purpose?
1681SOCRATES: And does not this apply in other cases?
1681SOCRATES: And he appears to you to be the richest who has goods of the greatest value?
1681SOCRATES: And how would you answer another question?
1681SOCRATES: And if any one gave you a choice, which of these would you prefer?
1681SOCRATES: And if anything appeared to be more valuable than health, he would be the richest who possessed it?
1681SOCRATES: And if they appear useless to this end, ought they not always to appear useless?
1681SOCRATES: And so, too, physic is not useful to every one, but only to him who knows how to use it?
1681SOCRATES: And the same is the case with everything else?
1681SOCRATES: And therefore conditions which are not required for the existence of a thing are not useful for the production of it?
1681SOCRATES: And we call those actions good which a man does for the sake of virtue?
1681SOCRATES: And were we not saying before that it was the business of a good man and a gentleman to know where and how anything should be used?
1681SOCRATES: And when we are in the worst state we have the greatest and most especial need and desire of bodily pleasures?
1681SOCRATES: And will not hearing be useful for virtue, if virtue is taught by hearing and we use the sense of hearing in giving instruction?
1681SOCRATES: But can a bad thing be used to carry out a good purpose?
1681SOCRATES: But can a man learn any kind of knowledge which is imparted by word of mouth if he is wholly deprived of the sense of hearing?
1681SOCRATES: But can that which is evil be useful for virtue?
1681SOCRATES: But if he possessed a thousand talents weight of some precious stone, we should say that he was very rich?
1681SOCRATES: But if, again, we obtain by wealth the aid of medicine, shall we not regard wealth as useful for virtue?
1681SOCRATES: Clearly we have not yet answered the question, What is wealth?
1681SOCRATES: In which way do you think you would be the richer?
1681SOCRATES: The reason is that the one is useless and the other useful?
1681SOCRATES: The same to you, I said; have you any good news from Sicily to tell us?
1681SOCRATES: Then if these things are useful for supplying the needs of the body, we must want them for that purpose?
1681SOCRATES: Then if they procure by this means what they want for the purposes of life, that art will be useful towards life?
1681SOCRATES: Then now we have to consider, What is money?
1681SOCRATES: Then our conclusion is, as would appear, that wealth is what is useful to this end?
1681SOCRATES: Then you consider that a man never wants any of these things for the use of the body?
1681SOCRATES: What is useful to us, then, is wealth, and what is useless to us is not wealth?
1681Suppose that we are asked,''Is a horse useful to everybody?''
1681The youth began by asking Prodicus, In what way did he think that riches were a good and in what an evil?
1681There are persons, are there not, who teach music and grammar and other arts for pay, and thus procure those things of which they stand in need?
1681What the Sicilians are doing, or how they are disposed towards our city?
1681Where would be the advantage of wisdom then?
1681and various other things?
1681can we give an answer?
1681whereas he who is short of means can not do what he fain would, and therefore does not sin?
1681will not our reply be,''No, but only to those who know how to use a horse?''
5223''And how can we be made thus white?''
5223''Knowest thou not,''replied the elder,''the word of the Lord?
5223And what did n''t I do to persuade him''?
5223Are these experts right in this?
5223Calonice:"And is it thick, too''?"
5223Do you think that Megaera had no buttocks?
5223For shame, lay by this envious art; Is this to act a sister''s part?"
5223For when was this NOT done?
5223Have you never set eyes on me before?
5223How often has Juno said the same to the lustful Thunderer?
5223KORITTO: Metro, where did you see that?
5223KORITTO: So Nossis had it, did she?
5223KORITTO: What did n''t I do, Metro dear''?
5223KORITTO: Why do you press me so?
5223METRO: But how did he happen to come to your house, Koritto dear?
5223METRO: Which Kerdon?
5223METRO: Why did n''t you buy the other one, too?
5223My tongue ought to be cut out; honestly it should: but to get back to the question I asked you a moment ago: who stitched the dildo?
5223Or is this but frenzy''s pleasing dream?

5223iii, 6),"Quirites, I can not bear to see Rome a Greek city, yet how small a fraction of the whole corruption is found in these dregs of Achaea?
5222But what were you up to in my absence?
5222Come now, confess, wo n''t you,I queried,"is this lady who loves me yourself?"
5222Do n''t you know what a serious crime you''ve committed? 5222 Suppose,"thought I,"some wily legacy hunter should dispatch an agent to Africa and catch us in our lie?
5222Well, Mr. Squeamish,she chirped, when she had greeted me,"have you recovered your appetite?"
5222What witches( she cried,)"have devoured your manhood?
5222What,she exclaimed,"would you really sacrifice the only one without whom you could not live''?
5222Where are the beans?

5222Why,she cried,"what has brought you into my cell as if you were visiting a newly made grave?
5222You have a brother already, I know, for I did n''t disdain to ask, but what is to prevent your adopting a sister, too? 5222 ''Oh heart of stone, how canst thou lie here alone?'' 5222 ( Infuriated at this affront,)What''s the matter,"demanded she;"do my kisses offend you?
5222Anything sluttish?
5222Are we not accustomed to swear at every member of the human body, the belly, throat, or even the head when it aches, as it often does?

5222For who knows not the pleasures Venus gives?
5222Growing tired of this nonsense at last,"See here,"said I,"could I not purchase immunity for a price, even though I had assaulted you''?
5222Have I some natural blemish that disfigures my beauty?

5222How could cheats and swindlers live unless they threw purses or little bags clinking with money into the crowd for bait?
5222Is my breath fetid from fasting?
5222Is there any evil smelling perspiration in my armpits?
5222Oh Jove, what''s come to pass that thou, thine armor cast away Art mute in heaven; and but an idle tale?
5222Or even suppose the hireling servant, glutted with prosperity, should tip off his cronies or give the whole scheme away out of spite?

5222Or, if it''s nothing of this kind, are you afraid of Giton?"
5222Was it right for you to slander my flourishing and vigorous years and land me in the shadows and lassitude of decrepit old age?

5222said the God,''Thou joy of a thousand sweet mistresses, how, oh my slave?''
1584--or rather, to restrict the enquiry to that part of virtue which is concerned with the use of weapons--''What is Courage?''
1584Am I not correct in saying so, Laches?
1584And I will begin with courage, and once more ask, What is that common quality, which is the same in all these cases, and which is called courage?
1584And are you ready to give assistance in the improvement of the youths?
1584And is not that generally thought to be courage?
1584And yet Nicias, would you allow that you are yourself a soothsayer, or are you neither a soothsayer nor courageous?
1584Are you not risking the greatest of your possessions?
1584But a better and more thorough way of examining the question will be to ask,''What is Virtue?''
1584But what say you of the matter of which we were beginning to speak-- the art of fighting in armour?
1584But why, instead of consulting us, do you not consult our friend Socrates about the education of the youths?
1584Do you imagine that I should call little children courageous, which fear no dangers because they know none?
1584Do you imagine, Laches, that the physician knows whether health or disease is the more terrible to a man?
1584Do you not agree to that, Laches?
1584Do you now understand what I mean?
1584Do you or do you not agree with me?
1584For how can we advise any one about the best mode of attaining something of which we are wholly ignorant?
1584For who but one of them can know to whom to die or to live is better?
1584Had not many a man better never get up from a sick bed?
1584How is this contradiction to be solved?
1584In all things small as well as great?
1584In the discussion of the main thesis of the Dialogue--''What is Courage?''
1584Is not that, on the other hand, to be regarded as evil and hurtful?
1584Is that a practice in which the lads may be advantageously instructed?
1584Is this a slight matter about which you and Lysimachus are deliberating?
1584LACHES: How flying?
1584LACHES: I have but one feeling, Nicias, or( shall I say?)
1584LACHES: Indeed I do: who but he?
1584LACHES: To what extent and what principle do you mean?
1584LACHES: Well but, Socrates; did you never observe that some persons, who have had no teachers, are more skilful than those who have, in some things?
1584LACHES: What can he possibly mean, Socrates?
1584LACHES: What do you mean, Socrates?
1584LACHES: Why, Socrates, what else can a man say?
1584LYSIMACHUS: Why do you say that, Nicias?
1584LYSIMACHUS: Why, Laches, has Socrates ever attended to matters of this sort?
1584LYSIMACHUS: Why, yes, Socrates; what else am I to do?
1584Laches derides this; and Socrates enquires,''What sort of intelligence?''
1584Let me ask you a question: Do not physicians know the dangers of disease?
1584May not death often be the better of the two?
1584Must we not select that to which the art of fighting in armour is supposed to conduce?
1584NICIAS: And do you think that the same things are terrible to those who had better die, and to those who had better live?
1584NICIAS: What is that?
1584NICIAS: Why, Socrates, is not the question whether young men ought or ought not to learn the art of fighting in armour?
1584SOCRATES: And are we right in saying so?
1584SOCRATES: And at present we have in view some knowledge, of which the end is the soul of youth?
1584SOCRATES: And courage, my friend, is, as you say, a knowledge of the fearful and of the hopeful?
1584SOCRATES: And do you, Nicias, also acknowledge that the same science has understanding of the same things, whether future, present, or past?
1584SOCRATES: And for this reason, as I imagine,--because a good decision is based on knowledge and not on numbers?
1584SOCRATES: And in a word, when he considers anything for the sake of another thing, he thinks of the end and not of the means?
1584SOCRATES: And is anything noble which is evil and hurtful?
1584SOCRATES: And is this condition of ours satisfactory?
1584SOCRATES: And shall we invite Nicias to join us?
1584SOCRATES: And so should I; but what would you say of another man, who fights flying, instead of remaining?
1584SOCRATES: And suppose I were to be asked by some one: What is that common quality, Socrates, which, in all these uses of the word, you call quickness?
1584SOCRATES: And that is in contradiction with our present view?
1584SOCRATES: And that which we know we must surely be able to tell?
1584SOCRATES: And the fearful, and the hopeful, are admitted to be future goods and future evils?
1584SOCRATES: And the knowledge of these things you call courage?
1584SOCRATES: And the same science has to do with the same things in the future or at any time?
1584SOCRATES: And we are enquiring, Which of us is skilful or successful in the treatment of the soul, and which of us has had good teachers?
1584SOCRATES: And when he considers whether he shall set a bridle on a horse and at what time, he is thinking of the horse and not of the bridle?
1584SOCRATES: And when you call in an adviser, you should see whether he too is skilful in the accomplishment of the end which you have in view?
1584SOCRATES: And would you do so too, Melesias?
1584SOCRATES: And you would say that a wise endurance is also good and noble?
1584SOCRATES: But as to the epithet''wise,''--wise in what?
1584SOCRATES: But then, Nicias, courage, according to this new definition of yours, instead of being a part of virtue only, will be all virtue?
1584SOCRATES: But we were saying that courage is one of the parts of virtue?
1584SOCRATES: But what is this knowledge then, and of what?
1584SOCRATES: But what would you say of a foolish endurance?
1584SOCRATES: But would there not arise a prior question about the nature of the art of which we want to find the masters?
1584SOCRATES: But, my dear friend, should not the good sportsman follow the track, and not be lazy?
1584SOCRATES: But, surely, this is a foolish endurance in comparison with the other?
1584SOCRATES: Do you agree with me about the parts?
1584SOCRATES: Do you hear him, Laches?
1584SOCRATES: Do you understand his meaning, Laches?
1584SOCRATES: Great care, then, is required in this matter?
1584SOCRATES: His one vote would be worth more than the vote of all us four?
1584SOCRATES: How so?
1584SOCRATES: I will endeavour to explain; you would call a man courageous who remains at his post, and fights with the enemy?
1584SOCRATES: Must we not then first of all ask, whether there is any one of us who has knowledge of that about which we are deliberating?
1584SOCRATES: Nor the wisdom which plays the lyre?
1584SOCRATES: Suppose that we instruct instead of abusing him?
1584SOCRATES: Tell him then, Nicias, what you mean by this wisdom; for you surely do not mean the wisdom which plays the flute?
1584SOCRATES: Then must we not first know the nature of virtue?
1584SOCRATES: Then which of the parts of virtue shall we select?
1584SOCRATES: Then you would not admit that sort of endurance to be courage-- for it is not noble, but courage is noble?
1584SOCRATES: Then, Laches, we may presume that we know the nature of virtue?
1584SOCRATES: Then, according to you, only the wise endurance is courage?
1584SOCRATES: What is Laches saying, Nicias?
1584SOCRATES: What is it, Nicias?
1584SOCRATES: What, Lysimachus, are you going to accept the opinion of the majority?
1584SOCRATES: Why do you say so, Laches?
1584Should we not select him who knew and had practised the art, and had the best teachers?
1584Socrates proceeds: We might ask who are our teachers?
1584Tell me, my boys, whether this is the Socrates of whom you have often spoken?
1584There is this sort of courage-- is there not, Laches?
1584What do you say to that alteration in your statement?
1584What do you say, Socrates-- will you comply?
1584What do you say?
1584Who are they who, having been inferior persons, have become under your care good and noble?
1584Would you not say the same?
1584do you mean to say that the soothsayer ought to know the grounds of hope or fear?
1584or are the physicians the same as the courageous?
1584or do the courageous know them?
11582And do you still think that you can spin and weave as well as I?
11582And who are you, young man?
11582Athena, the queen of the air? 11582 But I have no ship, and how shall I go?"
11582But what shall I do?
11582But who is the Pythia that you spoke about?
11582But wo n''t you give us the start of you a little?
11582But you will at least take fifty young men, your companions, with you?
11582Can no one kill this beast?
11582Did he not tell you that it fits all guests?
11582Has anything happened to Coronis? 11582 Has the king a son?"
11582Have you a pine tree bent down to the ground and ready for me?
11582Have you dropped them, sister? 11582 How can you go to Athens in these lawless times?"
11582How could she teach me? 11582 Is it true,"said Theseus,"that you have lured hundreds of travelers into your den only to rob them?
11582Is there anything that you wish?
11582Is this the kind of bed on which you have your guests lie down?
11582Is this your wonderful bed?
11582My father?
11582O cowardly and shameless men,answered King Minos,"why do you ask this foolish question, since you can but know the cause of my wrath?
11582O mighty king,they said,"what have we done that you should wish thus to destroy us from the earth?"
11582Oh, how can I live,she cried,"now that I must never again use loom or spindle or distaff?"
11582Say you that I am the hope of Athens?
11582Shall I go north, or south, or east, or west?
11582Shall I kill him?
11582Shall this upstart cheat us out of our heritage?
11582Then how can I do otherwise than go?
11582We know a secret which even the Great Folk who live on the mountain top can never learn; do n''t we, sisters?
11582What did he mean?
11582What is a girl good for?
11582What is it called?
11582What is the matter?
11582What is the meaning of all this?
11582What is the name of this town?
11582What kind of entertainment have you?
11582What kind of presents do you want?
11582What must I do?
11582What right has a Cretan to demand tribute in Athens? 11582 What shall we call our city?"
11582What shall we give to this child?
11582What''s this?
11582What? 11582 Where is Cercyon, the wrestler?"
11582Where is the center of the world?
11582Where is the king?
11582Where is the tooth? 11582 Where is this King Cecrops?"
11582Which is the most perilous way?
11582Which of these mighty ones shall we elect to be the protector and patron of our city?
11582Which shall we choose?
11582Who asked where is the center of the world?
11582Who could it have been?
11582Who has done all this?
11582Who is my father, and why are you always watching and waiting and wishing that he would come? 11582 Who is this who comes so willingly?"
11582Who is your master, fair maiden, that I should be afraid of him?
11582Who says that Atalanta shall not go to the hunt? 11582 Who taught you to spin and weave so well?"
11582Why did Jupiter give them to me if I should never use them, nor so much as look at them?
11582Why do n''t you ask for Medusa''s head, for example?
11582Why do n''t you ask for something worth the having?
11582Why do they call him the Stretcher? 11582 Why shall I do that?"
11582Why should I care for what Athena told me?
11582Why should I flee?
11582Will you swear that what you tell me is true?
11582Would n''t you like to put away your arrows and your spear, and go and play with them?
11582Yes, girl- faced stranger,said another,"what do you want here?"
11582You have done so many wonderful things,said the king to Daedalus,"can you not do something to rid the land of this Minotaur?"
11582Admetus went away feeling very sad; for who had ever heard of harnessing a lion and a wild boar together in a chariot?
11582And she answered:"My child, do you see the great flat stone which lies there, half buried in the ground, and covered with moss and trailing ivy?
11582And she kept on, weeping and weeping and weeping, and saying,"How can I live?"
11582And what is that iron bed of his?"
11582And yet what could he mean by the bones of our mother?"
11582But tell us now, what shall be the fate of the seven youths and the seven maidens?"
11582But what of that?
11582But why do you come?"
11582But why do you wish me to lift it?"
11582Can she spin such skeins of yarn as these?
11582Can she weave goods like mine?
11582Could a mere girl outrun such fine fellows as they?
11582Do you agree to this?"
11582Do you still mean to say that I have not taught you how to spin and weave?"
11582Do you think you can lift it?"
11582Does Father Peneus turn you into a tree to keep you from me?"
11582For how should he ever make good his promise and do the king''s bidding?
11582For who among us knows what wealth is or what wisdom is?
11582Have you lost them?"
11582How now was he to build a city, with no one to help him?
11582How was it that Alcestis had been given back to life?
11582Into this house the seven youths and the seven maidens shall be thrust, and they shall be left there--""To perish with hunger?"
11582Is it true that it is your wo nt to fasten them in this bed, and then chop off their legs or stretch them out until they fit the iron frame?
11582Is there anything I can do for you?"
11582So he turned to her, and said:"Am I not right, Medea, in bidding this young hero welcome?"
11582So, when she could think of no other way to get rid of them, Atalanta called them together and said:"You want to marry me, do you?
11582Surely it was not his shepherd?
11582Tell me, is this true?"
11582Then Theseus smiled, and said:"Is your turtle hungry to- day?
11582Was it possible that a little bear could be changed into a pretty babe with fat white hands and with a beautiful gold chain around its neck?
11582What does he want here?"
11582What is the tribute which you require?"
11582What more could he want?
11582What shall I give you to reward you?"
11582What was this Medusa''s head which he had so rashly promised to bring?
11582Where are the Maidens who keep the golden apples of the Western Land?
11582Where is he?"
11582Where is the eye?"
11582Which shall we choose?"
11582Which way shall I go to find them?"
11582Who is our mother, if it is not the Earth, from whom all living things have sprung?
11582Would not each of them bring him a present to be given to her father?
11582[ Illustration:"OUT OF THE YAWNING CREVICE THERE SPRANG A WONDERFUL CREATURE"]"What is his name?"
11582and do you want me to feed him?"
11582and what is this tribute of which he speaks?"
11582asked Theseus--"to go by ship or to make the journey on foot round the great bend of land?"
11582he cried,"is this the way in which the river saves you?
11582the Theseus who has rid the world of the mountain robbers, and of Cercyon the wrestler, and of Procrustes, the pitiless Stretcher?"
11582who was that sitting on the hilltop, with the sheep around him listening to his music?
2808Ah, but if he had wished it?
2808Even if he had wished you to set fire to the Capitol?
2808Is Thais really much obliged to me?
2808After all, who is such a fool as to feel certain-- however young he may be-- that he will be alive in the evening?
2808Again, in the case of Vecellinus or Spurius Maelius, ought their friends to have assisted them in their attempt to establish a tyranny?
2808Again, is there not the fact that the wisest man ever dies with the greatest cheerfulness, the most unwise with the least?
2808And should my service, Titus, ease the weight Of care that wrings your heart, and draw the sting Which rankles there, what guerdon shall there he?
2808And this was at an incident in fiction: what would they have done, must we suppose, if it had been in real life?
2808And what can be a nobler employment?
2808Are there any occasions on which, assuming their worthiness, we should prefer new to old friends, just as we prefer young to aged horses?
2808Are there then no old men''s employments to be after all conducted by the intellect, even when bodies are weak?
2808As death, therefore, is hanging over our head every hour, how can a man ever be unshaken in soul if he fears it?
2808As for him, who can say that all is not more than well?
2808But what a poor dotard must he be who has not learnt in the course of so long a life that death is not a thing to be feared?
2808But what can be more in accordance with nature than for old men to die?
2808But what need of more?
2808But who am I?
2808But why mention others?
2808Can anything be richer in product or more beautiful to contemplate?
2808Can feet stand no more?
2808Could such a high spirit fail to make old age pleasant?
2808Did Africanus, for example, want anything of me?
2808Do n''t you see in Homer how frequently Nestor talks of his own good qualities?
2808Do you imagine that in his old age he used to address Aristides as Lysimachus?
2808Do you mean from those carried on by youth and bodily strength?
2808For can there be anything more absurd than to seek more journey money, the less there remains of the journey?
2808For in what respect did old age steal upon manhood faster than manhood upon childhood?
2808For instance, what scope would my affections have had if Scipio had never wanted my advice or co- operation at home or abroad?
2808For instance: suppose Coriolanus to have had friends, ought they to have joined him in invading his country?
2808For what blessing has life to offer?
2808For what can be more foolish than to regard the uncertain as certain, the false as true?
2808For what is more charming than old age surrounded by the enthusiasm of youth?
2808For who, in heaven''s name, would choose a life of the greatest wealth and abundance on condition of neither loving or being beloved by any creature?
2808From which of them?
2808Had it not been much better to pass an age of ease and repose without any labour or exertion?
2808Had the Roman people ever heard or seen the like before?
2808His funeral speech over him is in wide circulation, and when we read it, is there any philosopher of whom we do not think meanly?
2808How can a man be friends with another, if he thinks it possible that he may be his enemy?
2808I mean, is its object an interchange of good offices, so that each may give that in which he is strong, and receive that in which he is weak?
2808If then he had lived to his hundredth year, would he have regretted having lived to be old?
2808In the first place, who compelled them to hug an illusion?
2808In the next place, in what way would old age have been less disagreeable to them if they were in their eight- hundredth year than in their eightieth?
2808Is it not rather the case with all these that the active pursuit of study only ended with life?
2808Is not prosperity robbed of half its value if you have no one to share your joy?
2808Is sense grown senseless?
2808Mallet- shoots, slips, cuttings, quicksets, layers-- are they not enough to fill anyone with delight and astonishment?
2808Nay, do not some even add to their stock of learning?
2808Need I mention the greenery of meadows, the rows of trees, the beauty of vineyard and olive- grove?
2808Need I mention the starting, planting, and growth of vines?
2808Neither have you the strength of the centurion T. Pontius: is he the more eminent man on that account?
2808Now what can be more degrading than to be thus hoodwinked?
2808Now, what is the quality to look out for as a warrant for the stability and permanence of friendship?
2808Or who but loathes Tarquinius Superbus, Spurius Cassius, Spurius Maelius?
2808Shall we not allow old age even the strength to teach the young, to train and equip them for all the duties of life?
2808Should we not rather say what labour?
2808The question occurs in the poet Naevius''s_ Sport_: Pray, who are those who brought your State With such despatch to meet its fate?
2808There are certain pursuits adapted to childhood: do young men miss them?
2808There are others suited to early manhood: does that settled time of life called"middle age"ask for them?
2808To rebel against nature-- is not that to fight like the giants with the gods?
2808Was any family ever so well established, any State so firmly settled, as to be beyond the reach of utter destruction from animosities and factions?
2808Was these men''s old age an object of pity who found their pleasure in the cultivation of the land?
2808Well, then, what about friendship?
2808What about lawyers, pontiffs, augurs, philosophers, when old?
2808What can be more delightful than to have some one to whom you can say everything with the same absolute confidence as to yourself?
2808What could be weaker than Milo of Croton''s exclamation?
2808What could such a man have gained by the addition of a few years?
2808What is the point of all this?
2808What is the point of these remarks?
2808What is the value of this"freedom from care"?
2808What pleasures are there in feasts, games, or mistresses comparable to pleasures such as these?
2808What sort of charge is this against old age, when you see that it is shared by youth?
2808What then are the physical pleasures to be compared with the reward of influence?
2808What then is the purpose of such a long disquisition on Maximus?
2808What wonder, then, that old men are eventually feeble, when even young men can not escape it?
2808Where can you find the man to prefer his friend''s advancement to his own?
2808Which then of the two would you prefer to have given to you-- bodily strength like that, or intellectual strength like that of Pythagoras?
2808Who can love one whom he fears, or by whom he knows that he is feared?
2808Who could steel himself to endure such a life?
2808Who was more famous and powerful in Greece than Themistocles?
2808Who would not lose in his loneliness the zest for all pleasures?
2808Why then do I spend so many words on the subject of pleasure?
2808Why then should I be afraid if I am destined either not to be miserable after death or even to be happy?
2808With these premises, then, let us first, if you please, examine the question-- how far ought personal feeling to go in friendship?
2808and what ability have I?
2808what is"long"in a man''s life?
1642''Are they really true?''
1642''Is all the just pious?''
1642''Then what part of justice is piety?''
1642And must you not allow that what is hated by one god may be liked by another?
1642Are all these tales of the gods true, Euthyphro?
1642As in the case of horses, you may observe that when attended to by the horseman''s art they are benefited and improved, are they not?
1642But I see plainly that you are not disposed to instruct me-- clearly not: else why, when we reached the point, did you turn aside?
1642But Socrates would like first of all to have a more satisfactory answer to the question,''What is piety?''
1642But although they are the givers of all good, how can we give them any good in return?
1642But how do pious or holy acts make the gods any better?
1642But in what way does he say that you corrupt the young?
1642But just at present I would rather hear from you a more precise answer, which you have not as yet given, my friend, to the question, What is''piety''?
1642But may there not be differences of opinion, as among men, so also among the gods?
1642But what is the charge which he brings against you?
1642But what is the meaning of''attending''to the gods?
1642Do we not go at once to arithmetic, and put an end to them by a sum?
1642Do you dissent?
1642Do you mean that they are a sort of science of praying and sacrificing?
1642Do you mean that we prefer requests and give gifts to them?
1642Do you not agree?
1642Do you not agree?
1642Do you not recollect that there was one idea which made the impious impious, and the pious pious?
1642EUTHYPHRO: And do you imagine, Socrates, that any benefit accrues to the gods from our gifts?
1642EUTHYPHRO: And who is he?
1642EUTHYPHRO: How do you mean, Socrates?
1642EUTHYPHRO: Then some one else has been prosecuting you?
1642EUTHYPHRO: What else, but tributes of honour; and, as I was just now saying, what pleases them?
1642EUTHYPHRO: Why have you left the Lyceum, Socrates?
1642EUTHYPHRO: Why not, Socrates?
1642For surely neither God nor man will ever venture to say that the doer of injustice is not to be punished?
1642Have you forgotten?
1642How would you show that all the gods absolutely agree in approving of his act?
1642I suppose that you follow me now?
1642Is it not so?
1642Is not piety in every action always the same?
1642Is not that true?
1642Please then to tell me, what is the nature of this service to the gods?
1642SOCRATES: Again, there is an art which ministers to the ship- builder with a view to the attainment of some result?
1642SOCRATES: And I should also conceive that the art of the huntsman is the art of attending to dogs?
1642SOCRATES: And are you not saying that what is loved of the gods is holy; and is not this the same as what is dear to them-- do you see?
1642SOCRATES: And does piety or holiness, which has been defined to be the art of attending to the gods, benefit or improve them?
1642SOCRATES: And further, Euthyphro, the gods were admitted to have enmities and hatreds and differences?
1642SOCRATES: And is not attention always designed for the good or benefit of that to which the attention is given?
1642SOCRATES: And is not that which is beloved distinct from that which loves?
1642SOCRATES: And is, then, all which is just pious?
1642SOCRATES: And now tell me, my good friend, about the art which ministers to the gods: what work does that help to accomplish?
1642SOCRATES: And of the many and fair things done by the gods, which is the chief or principal one?
1642SOCRATES: And of what is he accused?
1642SOCRATES: And sacrificing is giving to the gods, and prayer is asking of the gods?
1642SOCRATES: And that which is dear to the gods is loved by them, and is in a state to be loved of them because it is loved of them?
1642SOCRATES: And the quarrels of the gods, noble Euthyphro, when they occur, are of a like nature?
1642SOCRATES: And the same is true of what is led and of what is seen?
1642SOCRATES: And upon this view the same things, Euthyphro, will be pious and also impious?
1642SOCRATES: And we end a controversy about heavy and light by resorting to a weighing machine?
1642SOCRATES: And well said?
1642SOCRATES: And what do you say of piety, Euthyphro: is not piety, according to your definition, loved by all the gods?
1642SOCRATES: And what is piety, and what is impiety?
1642SOCRATES: And what is your suit, Euthyphro?
1642SOCRATES: And what sort of difference creates enmity and anger?
1642SOCRATES: And when you say this, can you wonder at your words not standing firm, but walking away?
1642SOCRATES: As the art of the oxherd is the art of attending to oxen?
1642SOCRATES: As there is an art which ministers to the house- builder with a view to the building of a house?
1642SOCRATES: Because it is pious or holy, or for some other reason?
1642SOCRATES: But do they admit their guilt, Euthyphro, and yet say that they ought not to be punished?
1642SOCRATES: But for their good?
1642SOCRATES: But if not, Euthyphro, what is the meaning of gifts which are conferred by us upon the gods?
1642SOCRATES: But what differences are there which can not be thus decided, and which therefore make us angry and set us at enmity with one another?
1642SOCRATES: Does not every man love that which he deems noble and just and good, and hate the opposite of them?
1642SOCRATES: Good: but I must still ask what is this attention to the gods which is called piety?
1642SOCRATES: I should suppose that the art of horsemanship is the art of attending to horses?
1642SOCRATES: In like manner holiness or piety is the art of attending to the gods?--that would be your meaning, Euthyphro?
1642SOCRATES: Is not that which is loved in some state either of becoming or suffering?
1642SOCRATES: Is not the right way of asking to ask of them what we want?
1642SOCRATES: It is loved because it is holy, not holy because it is loved?
1642SOCRATES: Many and fair, too, are the works of the husbandman, if I am not mistaken; but his chief work is the production of food from the earth?
1642SOCRATES: May not this be the reason, Euthyphro, why I am charged with impiety-- that I can not away with these stories about the gods?
1642SOCRATES: Medicine is also a sort of ministration or service, having in view the attainment of some object-- would you not say of health?
1642SOCRATES: No doubt, Euthyphro; but you would admit that there are many other pious acts?
1642SOCRATES: Nor is every one qualified to attend to dogs, but only the huntsman?
1642SOCRATES: Of whom?
1642SOCRATES: Or suppose that we differ about magnitudes, do we not quickly end the differences by measuring?
1642SOCRATES: Ought we to enquire into the truth of this, Euthyphro, or simply to accept the mere statement on our own authority and that of others?
1642SOCRATES: Piety, then, is pleasing to the gods, but not beneficial or dear to them?
1642SOCRATES: Tell me then, oh tell me-- what is that fair work which the gods do by the help of our ministrations?
1642SOCRATES: Then once more the assertion is repeated that piety is dear to the gods?
1642SOCRATES: Then piety, Euthyphro, is an art which gods and men have of doing business with one another?
1642SOCRATES: Then the same things are hated by the gods and loved by the gods, and are both hateful and dear to them?
1642SOCRATES: Then we must begin again and ask, What is piety?
1642SOCRATES: Then, if piety is a part of justice, I suppose that we should enquire what part?
1642SOCRATES: Upon this view, then, piety is a science of asking and giving?
1642SOCRATES: Well, but speaking of men, Euthyphro, did you ever hear any one arguing that a murderer or any sort of evil- doer ought to be let off?
1642SOCRATES: Well; and now tell me, is that which is carried in this state of carrying because it is carried, or for some other reason?
1642SOCRATES: What is the charge?
1642SOCRATES: Who is he?
1642SOCRATES: Why, has the fugitive wings?
1642Shall I tell you in what respect?
1642Shall this be our definition of piety and impiety?
1642Socrates, who is desirous of stimulating the indolent intelligence of Euthyphro, raises the question in another manner:''Is all the pious just?''
1642Surely you can not be concerned in a suit before the King, like myself?
1642Tell me, then-- Is not that which is pious necessarily just?
1642To what end do we serve the gods, and what do we help them to accomplish?
1642Was not that said?
1642Were we not saying that the holy or pious was not the same with that which is loved of the gods?
1642What are they?
1642What do you say?
1642What else can I say, confessing as I do, that I know nothing about them?
1642What should I be good for without it?
1642What then is piety?
1642Would you not say that victory in war is the chief of them?
1642Would you say that when you do a holy act you make any of the gods better?
1642You know that in all such cases there is a difference, and you know also in what the difference lies?
1642and what are you doing in the Porch of the King Archon?
1642are you the pursuer or the defendant?
1642my companion, and will you leave me in despair?
1642my good man?
1642or, is that which is pious all just, but that which is just, only in part and not all, pious?
27458And how can thy father- land, after having been taken by the spear through thy means, ever be an ally to thee? 27458 And are we to expect that any one will get the mastery of Jove? 27458 And didst thou chance to advance even beyond this? 27458 And do the creatures of a day now possess bright fire? 27458 And for what offenses art thou paying the penalty? 27458 And has he no refuge from this misfortune? 27458 And how is it that thou art not dismayed blurting out words such as these? 27458 And how not so, I, who through Jupiter am suffering ill? 27458 And how shall it be his good pleasure? 27458 And is no period to thy toils set before thee? 27458 And what Justice shall staunch the fountain of thy mother''s tears? 27458 And what new event is happening to our city? 27458 And yet what is it I am saying? 27458 Ay, but in foresight along with boldness[27] what mischief is there that thou seest to be inherent? 27458 But why ask its nature? 27458 By finding what remedy for this malady? 27458 Came they even to that? 27458 Can not ye endure it in silence, and confusion to ye? 27458 Celestial or mortal? 27458 Come, my friend, own how boonless was the boon; say where is any aid? 27458 Does not then the sovereign of the gods seem to you to be violent alike toward all things? 27458 Dreadest thou not this the rather? 27458 For in what point doth his fate fall short of insanity? 27458 For some are advancing against the towers in all their numbers, in all their array;( what will become of me?) 27458 From whence utterest thou the name of my father? 27458 Have I not known two monarchs[78] dethroned from it? 27458 Hear ye, or hear ye not, the clash of bucklers? 27458 Heard''st thou, or heard''st thou not, or am I speaking to a deaf woman? 27458 Hearest thou the address of the ox- horned maiden? 27458 How is it that thou urgest me to practice baseness? 27458 How sayest thou? 27458 How shall I have the heart neither to bewail thee nor to escort thee to the tomb? 27458 How, when will it be thy destiny to make the haven and see the end of these thy sufferings? 27458 How, where must a termination of these toils arise? 27458 I grant it-- but how is it possible to disobey the Sire''s word? 27458 In what manner? 27458 In what will mortals be able to alleviate these agonies of thine? 27458 In what, in what, O son of Saturn, hast thou, having found me transgressing, shackled me in these pangs? 27458 Is Jupiter then less powerful than these? 27458 Is it by a consort that he is to be ejected from his throne? 27458 Is it indeed on charges such as these that Jupiter is both visiting thee with indignities, and in no wise grants thee a respite from thy pains? 27458 Is it not then enough that I take measures for this? 27458 Is it that you may contemplate my misfortunes, and as sympathizing with my woes that thou hast come? 27458 Knowest thou not this then, Prometheus, that words are the physicians of a distempered feeling? 27458 O thou that didst dawn a common benefit upon mortals, wretched Prometheus, as penance for what offense art thou thus suffering? 27458 Of what trespass is the retribution destroying thee? 27458 Oh dark and fatal curse of the race and of OEdipus, what horrible chill is this that is falling upon my heart? 27458 Oh ye blessed beings, seated on your glorious thrones,''tis high time for us to cling to your statues-- why do we deeply sighing delay? 27458 ST. Again thou art hanging back, and sighest thou over the enemies of Jupiter? 27458 Sawest thou not the powerless weakness, nought better than a dream, in which the blind race of men is entangled? 27458 Say who it was that bound thee fast in this cleft? 27458 Seem I to thee in aught to be dismayed at, and to crouch beneath the new gods? 27458 Seest thou not that thou didst err? 27458 Shall I then prostrate myself before the statues of the divinities? 27458 Shall child of mine release thee from thy ills? 27458 Shall not this, then, be at the disposal of the gods? 27458 Thou too in thy turn[57] art crying out and moaning: what wilt thou do then, when thou learnest the residue of thy ills? 27458 To what point is the deity conducting the issue? 27458 What Nemesis can feel offended at this? 27458 What can I devise? 27458 What dost thou impute to me also any blame for thy mischances? 27458 What gain then is it for me to live? 27458 What hope is there? 27458 What of these things can speech picture? 27458 What relief can come from the creatures of a day? 27458 What shall I do? 27458 What shall I say? 27458 What then? 27458 What will become of it? 27458 What will become of me? 27458 What wilt thou do? 27458 What with him who hath lately seated himself on the throne that ruleth over all? 27458 What, but that of a certainty troubles on troubles are constant inmates of this house? 27458 What? 27458 When, if not now, shall we set about the orison of the peplus[100] and chaplets? 27458 Who else could do so with better right? 27458 Who is there that sympathizes not with thy sufferings, Jove excepted? 27458 Who of the gods is so hard- hearted as that these things should be grateful to him? 27458 Who then is the pilot of necessity? 27458 Who then will rescue us, who then of gods and goddesses will aid us? 27458 Who will abide his vaunting and not tremble? 27458 Who will agree to this? 27458 Who will engage with him? 27458 Who, then, is he that shall liberate thee in despite of Jupiter? 27458 Who, when the fastenings give way, is fit to be intrusted with the defense of the gate of Proetus? 27458 Who? 27458 Why art thou delaying and vainly commiserating? 27458 Why art thou eager, my son? 27458 Why at what should I be terrified to whom it is not destined to die? 27458 Why loathest thou not the god that is most hateful to the gods, who has betrayed thy prerogative to mortals? 27458 Why then delayest thou to utter the whole? 27458 Why, art thou not a boy, and yet sillier than one, if thou lookest to obtain any information from me? 27458 Why, what is doomed for Jupiter but to reign for evermore? 27458 Wilt thou not be silent? 27458 Wilt thou not then accord to me this boon? 27458 [ 123] Whom wilt thou marshal against this[ foe]? 27458 [ 12] ST. Wilt thou not then bestir thyself to cast fetters about this wretch, that the Sire may not espy thee loitering? 27458 [ 33] And yet who but myself defined completely the prerogative for these same new gods? 27458 [ 45] What land is this? 27458 [ 81] What doth it abate from ravings? 27458 and hast thou too come to be a witness of my pangs? 27458 but why did I not quickly fling myself from this rough precipice, that dashing on the plain I had rid myself of all my pangs? 27458 does the mariner who flees from the stern to the prow[111] find means of escape, when his bark is laboring against the billow of the ocean? 27458 hast thou aught of suffering left to tell to her? 27458 is it possible that Jupiter should ever fall from his power? 27458 knowest thou not exactly, extremely intelligent as thou art, that punishment is inflicted on a froward tongue? 27458 that endure woes such as mine? 27458 what can this hasty motion of birds be which I again hear hard by me? 27458 what means this? 27458 what race? 27458 what sound, what ineffable odor[17] hath been wafted to me, emanating from a god, or from mortal, or of some intermediate nature? 27458 where in the land shall we place them both? 27458 whither do my far- roaming wanderings convey me? 27458 who will purify them? 27458 whom shall I say I here behold storm- tossed in rocky fetters? 27458 wilt thou honor with a tomb him whom our state abhors? 27458 wilt thou shed the blood of thine own brother? 27458 wilt thou, O Mars, ancient guardian of our soil, abandon thine own land? 27458 ye that overthrew the walls of your palace, and having cast an eye on bitter monarchy, how have ye now settled your claims with the steel? 10523 Is that a curse?"
10523Not died for thee?...
10523''Tis not Alcestis?
10523''Tis not Alcestis?]
10523''Tis so?
10523''Twould please thee, so?...
10523(_ A pause; then suddenly_) Where lies the tomb?--Where shall I find her now?
10523(_ Recovering_) Where am I?
10523(_ Taking the_ LITTLE GIRL_ to her_) What good And gentle care will guide thy maidenhood?
10523-- Does this mean"Go on being hospitable, as you have been,"or"Learn after this not to take liberties with other guests"?
10523--Admetus cast that dear wife to the grave Alone, with none to see?
10523--Dead, and this quiet?
10523--Hear ye no sob, or noise of hands Beating the breast?
10523--No end, no end, Wilt thou lay to lamentations?
10523--Why?
10523--Yet''tis this very day...--This very day?
10523A stranger, or of kin to thee?
10523A wife dead; a dear chair Empty: is that so rare?
10523A woman dead, of no one''s kin; why grieve So much?
10523ADMETUS(_ approaching with awe_), Beloved eyes; beloved form; O thou Gone beyond hope, I have thee, I hold thee now?
10523Again, what are the feelings of Admetus himself?
10523Ah, and what paths are these I tread?
10523Ah, then she may yet... she may yet grow old?
10523Alcestis?...
10523And after, think you he would mannerly Take what was set before him?
10523And aid this house unjustly?
10523And dare I touch her, greet her, as mine own Wife living?
10523And had I turned the stranger from my door, Who sought my shelter, hadst thou praised me more?
10523And he who feeds such beasts, who was his sire?
10523And how can I, forlorn of thee, live on?
10523And is Admetus in his home?
10523And is it life, To live with such an oath hung o''er her head?
10523And more, when bards tell tales, were it not worse My house should lie beneath the stranger''s curse?
10523And now wilt mourn for her?
10523And this good damsel, thou wilt take her home?
10523And thy charge I fain would hold Sacred.--If not, wouldst have me keep her in The women''s chambers... where my dead hath been?
10523And who hath said that Love shall bring More joy to man than fear and strife?
10523Art thou mad?
10523Because none wrongs thee, thou must curse thy sire?
10523Bitter the homeward way, Bitter to seek A widowed house; ah me, Where should I fly or stay, Be dumb or speak?
10523But how... how didst thou win her to the light?
10523But how...?
10523But now How dare I enter in?
10523But where?
10523But why this mourning hair, this garb of woe?
10523Children, ye heard his promise?
10523Died she through me?...
10523Dost comprehend things mortal, how they grow?...
10523Doth it win, with no man''s telling, Some high vision of the truth?
10523For men whom the Gods had slain He pitied and raised again; Till God''s fire laid him low, And now, what help have we?
10523For never shall ye be From henceforth under the same roof with me.... Must I send heralds and a trumpet''s call To abjure thy blood?
10523Friend, why so solemn and so cranky- eyed?
10523Given this form and this story, the next question is: What did Euripides make of them?
10523Go forth, when none is there To give me a parting word, and I to her?...
10523Hath mine own friend so wronged me in his hall?
10523Have they nostrils breathing flame?
10523Heard''st thou not of yore The doom that she must meet?
10523How break the snare That is round our King?
10523How came she to be in Thy house to die?
10523How can an old life weigh against a young?
10523How canst thou?
10523How could I have this damsel in my sight And keep mine eyes dry?
10523How could I lay this woman where my bride Once lay?
10523How could he?...
10523How often with these kings of Ares''kind Must I do battle?
10523How other?
10523How should thy revelling hurt, if that were all?
10523How, master?
10523How?
10523I might have lived to we d some prince of pride, Dwell in a king''s house.... Nay, how could I, torn From thee, live on, I and my babes forlorn?
10523I still fear: what makes your speech so brave?
10523If Heracles set out straight to the grave and Admetus with the procession was returning from the grave, how was it they did not meet?
10523If Milton had had to make a child speak in_ Paradise Lost_, what sort of diction would he have given it?
10523If my truth of tongue Gives pain to thee, why didst thou do me wrong?
10523Is he strange to thee?
10523Is it magnificent hospitality, or is it gross want of tact?
10523Is not life his one desire?
10523Is one in all this land more hospitable, One in all Greece?
10523Is she alive or dead?
10523Is there wit in Death, who seemed so blind?
10523Is this some real grief he hath hid from me?
10523Live?
10523Look in her face; Look; is she like...?
10523Man, hast thou heard nothing of our woe?
10523Must I go starved because some stranger dies?
10523My broad lands shall be made Thine, as I had them from my father.... Say, How have I wronged thee?
10523My son, whom seekest thou... some Lydian thrall, Or Phrygian, bought with cash?...
10523My wife... she whom I buried?
10523Nay, daughter, can the same soul live and die?
10523No mourners''cries For one they can not save?
10523Not easy?
10523O Zeus, What escape and where From the evil thing?
10523Oh, what has happened?
10523Oh, why didst hinder me to cast This body to the dust and die With her, the faithful and the brave?
10523One cometh?...
10523Or doth God mock at me And blast my vision with some mad surmise?
10523Or how could any wife more shining make Her lord''s love, than by dying for his sake?
10523Or, entered, how Go forth again?
10523Otherwise, Let all these questions sleep and just obey My counsel.... Thou believest all I say?

10523There is no hope, methinks, to save her still?

10523Thou hast touched her?
10523Thou know''st not?
10523Thou lovest this light: shall I not love it, I?...
10523Thou will not grant me, then, this boon?

1600''And how, Socrates,''she said with a smile,''can Love be acknowledged to be a great god by those who say that he is not a god at all?''
1600''And is that which is not wise, ignorant?
1600''And is this wish and this desire common to all?
1600''And not only the possession, but the everlasting possession of the good?''
1600''And what does he gain who possesses the good?''
1600''And what may that be?''
1600''And what,''I said,''is his power?''
1600''And who are they?''
1600''And who,''I said,''was his father, and who his mother?''
1600''And you admitted that Love, because he was in want, desires those good and fair things of which he is in want?''
1600''And you mean by the happy, those who are the possessors of things good or fair?''
1600''But how can he be a god who has no portion in what is either good or fair?''
1600''But who then, Diotima,''I said,''are the lovers of wisdom, if they are neither the wise nor the foolish?''
1600''But why of generation?''
1600''By those who know or by those who do not know?''
1600''Do you know what I am meditating?
1600''How can that be?''
1600''Hush,''she cried;''must that be foul which is not fair?''
1600''Right opinion,''she replied;''which, as you know, being incapable of giving a reason, is not knowledge( for how can knowledge be devoid of reason?
1600''Still,''she said,''the answer suggests a further question: What is given by the possession of beauty?''
1600''Then if this be the nature of love, can you tell me further,''she said,''what is the manner of the pursuit?
1600''Then love,''she said,''may be described generally as the love of the everlasting possession of the good?''
1600''To which must be added that they love the possession of the good?''
1600''What are you meditating?''
1600''What do you mean, Diotima,''I said,''is love then evil and foul?''
1600''What is he, Diotima?''
1600''What then is Love?''
1600''What then?''
1600''What then?''
1600''Why, then,''she rejoined,''are not all men, Socrates, said to love, but only some of them?
1600''Will you have a very drunken man as a companion of your revels?
1600''Would you desire better witness?''
1600And I remember her once saying to me,''What is the cause, Socrates, of love, and the attendant desire?
1600And Socrates, looking at Eryximachus, said: Tell me, son of Acumenus, was there not reason in my fears?
1600And am I not right in asserting that there are two goddesses?
1600And are you not a flute- player?
1600And as you have spoken so eloquently of his nature, may I ask you further, Whether love is the love of something or of nothing?
1600And does he possess, or does he not possess, that which he loves and desires?
1600And first tell me, he said, were you present at this meeting?
1600And if this is true, Love is the love of beauty and not of deformity?
1600And now, said Socrates, I will ask about Love:--Is Love of something or of nothing?
1600And suppose further, that when he saw their perplexity he said:''Do you desire to be wholly one; always day and night to be in one another''s company?
1600And the admission has been already made that Love is of something which a man wants and has not?
1600And when you say, I desire that which I have and nothing else, is not your meaning that you want to have what you now have in the future?''
1600And would you call that beautiful which wants and does not possess beauty?
1600And you would say the same of a mother?
1600Are they not all the works of his wisdom, born and begotten of him?
1600Are we to have neither conversation nor singing over our cups; but simply to drink as if we were thirsty?
1600But Love desires the beautiful; and then arises the question, What does he desire of the beautiful?
1600But before the many you would not be ashamed, if you thought that you were doing something disgraceful in their presence?
1600But first tell me; if I come in shall we have the understanding of which I spoke( supra Will you have a very drunken man?
1600But what have you done with Socrates?
1600But why again does this extend not only to men but also to animals?
1600By Heracles, he said, what is this?
1600By all means; but who makes the third partner in our revels?
1600Can you tell me why?''
1600Consider then: How can the drinking be made easiest?
1600Do you expect to shoot your bolt and escape, Aristophanes?
1600Eryximachus said: What is this, Alcibiades?
1600First, is not love of something, and of something too which is wanting to a man?
1600For he who is anything can not want to be that which he is?
1600For what lover would not choose rather to be seen by all mankind than by his beloved, either when abandoning his post or throwing away his arms?
1600He desires, of course, the possession of the beautiful;--but what is given by that?
1600He must agree with us-- must he not?
1600I am especially struck with the beauty of the concluding words-- who could listen to them without amazement?
1600I asked;''Is he mortal?''
1600I said,''O thou stranger woman, thou sayest well; but, assuming Love to be such as you say, what is the use of him to men?''
1600I was astonished at her words, and said:''Is this really true, O thou wise Diotima?''
1600I will also tell, if you please-- and indeed I am bound to tell-- of his courage in battle; for who but he saved my life?
1600Is he not like a Silenus in this?
1600Is that the meaning of your praise?
1600Is there anything?''
1600Man may be supposed to act thus from reason; but why should animals have these passionate feelings?
1600May I say without impiety or offence, that of all the blessed gods he is the most blessed because he is the fairest and best?
1600Of what am I speaking?
1600On his appearing he and the host jest a little; the question is then asked by Pausanias, one of the guests,''What shall they do about drinking?
1600Or shall I crown Agathon, which was my intention in coming, and go away?
1600Or who would desert his beloved or fail him in the hour of danger?
1600Or who would not have such children as Lycurgus left behind him to be the saviours, not only of Lacedaemon, but of Hellas, as one may say?
1600See you how fond he is of the fair?
1600She said to me:''And do you expect ever to become a master in the art of love, if you do not know this?''
1600So I gave him a shake, and I said:''Socrates, are you asleep?''
1600Socrates asks: Who are his father and mother?
1600That is, of a brother or sister?
1600The same to you, said Eryximachus; but what shall we do?
1600Then Love wants and has not beauty?
1600Then in wanting the beautiful, love wants also the good?
1600Then it must have been a long while ago, he said; and who told you-- did Socrates?
1600Then would you still say that love is beautiful?
1600Then, said Glaucon, let us have the tale over again; is not the road to Athens just made for conversation?
1600What are you about?
1600What do you suppose must have been my feelings, after this rejection, at the thought of my own dishonour?
1600What do you think, Eryximachus?
1600What do you think?
1600What do you want?
1600What say you to going with me unasked?
1600Who will deny that the creation of the animals is his doing?
1600Who would not emulate them in the creation of children such as theirs, which have preserved their memory and given them everlasting glory?
1600Who would not sooner have these children of the mind than the ordinary human ones?
1600Who, if not you, should be the reporter of the words of your friend?
1600Who, when he thinks of Homer and Hesiod and other great poets, would not rather have their children than ordinary human ones?
1600Why then is there all this flutter and excitement about love?
1600Why, my dear friend, said Socrates, must not I or any one be in a strait who has to speak after he has heard such a rich and varied discourse?
1600Will that be agreeable to you?
1600Will you drink with me or not?''
1600Will you laugh at me because I am drunk?
1600Would he who is great, desire to be great, or he who is strong, desire to be strong?
1600Would that be an ignoble life?''
1600Yet let me ask you one more question in order to illustrate my meaning: Is not a brother to be regarded essentially as a brother of something?
1600You were quite right in coming, said Agathon; but where is he himself?
1600and do all men always desire their own good, or only some men?--what say you?''
1600and was I not a true prophet when I said that Agathon would make a wonderful oration, and that I should be in a strait?
1600and what is the object which they have in view?
1600do you not see that there is a mean between wisdom and ignorance?''
1600etc.)?
1600said Alcibiades: shall I attack him and inflict the punishment before you all?
1600said Socrates; are you going to raise a laugh at my expense?
1600what are they doing who show all this eagerness and heat which is called love?
1673And that person is he who is good at calculation-- the arithmetician?
1673But is it better to do wrong intentionally or unintentionally?
1673But to return: what say you of Odysseus and Achilles?
1673EUDICUS: Why are you silent, Socrates, after the magnificent display which Hippias has been making?
1673For example, had a man better have a rudder with which he will steer ill, voluntarily or involuntarily?
1673For who always does justice to himself, or who writes with equal care at all times?
1673HIPPIAS: Certainly not, Socrates; what makes you say so?
1673HIPPIAS: Certainly; how can I have any other?
1673HIPPIAS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1673HIPPIAS: Where is that?
1673He who runs slowly voluntarily, or he who runs slowly involuntarily?
1673I will therefore remind you of what you were saying: were you not saying that Achilles was a true man, and Odysseus false and wily?
1673Is he not the good man?
1673Is not he who is better made able to assume evil and disgraceful figures and postures voluntarily, as he who is worse made assumes them involuntarily?
1673Is not the same person best able to speak falsely or to speak truly about diagrams; and he is-- the geometrician?
1673Must it not be so?
1673Must not justice, at all events, be one of these?
1673Please to answer once more: Is not justice a power, or knowledge, or both?
1673SOCRATES: And Homer must be presumed to have meant that the true man is not the same as the false?
1673SOCRATES: And are you not likewise said to speak truly about calculation?
1673SOCRATES: And being as you are the wisest and ablest of men in these matters of calculation, are you not also the best?
1673SOCRATES: And could you speak falsehoods about them equally well?
1673SOCRATES: And does not the same hold of astronomy?
1673SOCRATES: And does not the same hold of the bow and the lyre, the flute and all other things?
1673SOCRATES: And having this knowledge, are they ignorant, or are they wise?
1673SOCRATES: And he who runs slowly runs badly?
1673SOCRATES: And he who runs slowly runs ill, and he who runs quickly runs well?
1673SOCRATES: And he who runs well is a good runner, and he who runs ill is a bad runner?
1673SOCRATES: And if a species of doing, a species of action?
1673SOCRATES: And if justice is knowledge, then the wiser will be the juster soul, and the more ignorant the more unjust?
1673SOCRATES: And if some one were to ask you what is the sum of 3 multiplied by 700, you would tell him the true answer in a moment, if you pleased?
1673SOCRATES: And if they are prudent, do they know or do they not know what they do?
1673SOCRATES: And is it better to possess the mind of an archer who voluntarily or involuntarily misses the mark?
1673SOCRATES: And is it worse or more dishonourable at a wrestling match, to fall, or to throw another?
1673SOCRATES: And is not blinking a defect in the eyes?
1673SOCRATES: And is not running a species of doing?
1673SOCRATES: And is not the soul which has the greater power and wisdom also better, and better able to do both good and evil in every action?
1673SOCRATES: And is that your own opinion, Hippias?
1673SOCRATES: And now do you perceive that the same person has turned out to be false as well as true?
1673SOCRATES: And should we not desire to have our own minds in the best state possible?
1673SOCRATES: And tell me, Hippias, are you not a skilful calculator and arithmetician?
1673SOCRATES: And that would be true of a dog, or of any other animal?
1673SOCRATES: And the good man is he who has the good soul, and the bad man is he who has the bad?
1673SOCRATES: And the true differ from the false-- the true and the false are the very opposite of each other?
1673SOCRATES: And there are bad runners?
1673SOCRATES: And therefore you would be the most able to tell the truth about these matters, would you not?
1673SOCRATES: And to do injustice is to do ill, and not to do injustice is to do well?
1673SOCRATES: And were you not yourself just now shown to be best able to speak falsely about calculation?
1673SOCRATES: And what do you say about grace, Hippias?
1673SOCRATES: And what would you say of an unmusical voice; would you prefer the voice which is voluntarily or involuntarily out of tune?
1673SOCRATES: And what would you say of the art of medicine;--has not the mind which voluntarily works harm to the body, more of the healing art?
1673SOCRATES: And what would you say of the characters of slaves?
1673SOCRATES: And will not the better and abler soul when it does wrong, do wrong voluntarily, and the bad soul involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: And will our minds be better if they do wrong and make mistakes voluntarily or involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: And would you choose to possess goods or evils?
1673SOCRATES: And would you rather always have eyes with which you might voluntarily blink and not see, or with which you might involuntarily blink?
1673SOCRATES: And would you rather have a horse of such a temper that you may ride him ill voluntarily or involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: And would you rather have feet which are voluntarily or involuntarily lame?
1673SOCRATES: Are you not also skilled in geometry?
1673SOCRATES: But is not lameness a defect or deformity?
1673SOCRATES: Do you not see, then, that the same man is false and also true about the same matters?
1673SOCRATES: Do you say that the false, like the sick, have no power to do things, or that they have the power to do things?
1673SOCRATES: Does the false man tell lies about other things, but not about number, or when he is making a calculation?
1673SOCRATES: He and no one else is good at it?
1673SOCRATES: I am very desirous, Hippias, of examining this question, as to which are the better-- those who err voluntarily or involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: In a word, then, the false are they who are wise and have the power to speak falsely?
1673SOCRATES: Is not that because you are the wisest and ablest of men in these matters?
1673SOCRATES: Now, Hippias, I think that I understand your meaning; when you say that Odysseus is wily, you clearly mean that he is false?
1673SOCRATES: O rare Hippias, will you be so good as not to laugh, if I find a difficulty in following you, and repeat my questions several times over?
1673SOCRATES: Shall we examine other instances?
1673SOCRATES: That would be the better horse?
1673SOCRATES: The involuntary is the worse of the two?
1673SOCRATES: The soul, then, which acts ill, acts voluntarily by power and art-- and these either one or both of them are elements of justice?
1673SOCRATES: Then Odysseus would appear after all to be better than Achilles?
1673SOCRATES: Then a man who has not the power of speaking falsely and is ignorant can not be false?
1673SOCRATES: Then he who involuntarily does evil actions, is worse in a race than he who does them voluntarily?
1673SOCRATES: Then he who runs badly does a bad and dishonourable action in a race?
1673SOCRATES: Then in a race, and in running, swiftness is a good, and slowness is an evil quality?
1673SOCRATES: Then in astronomy also, the same man will be true and false?
1673SOCRATES: Then in the art of medicine the voluntary is better than the involuntary?
1673SOCRATES: Then in your own case you deem that which voluntarily acts ill, better than that which involuntarily acts ill?
1673SOCRATES: Then may we further assume, Hippias, that there are men who are false about calculation and number?
1673SOCRATES: Then the good man will voluntarily do wrong, and the bad man involuntarily, if the good man is he who has the good soul?
1673SOCRATES: Then the good runner does this bad and disgraceful action voluntarily, and the bad involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: Then the mind which involuntarily errs is worse than the mind which errs voluntarily?
1673SOCRATES: Then the same person is able to speak both falsely and truly about calculation?
1673SOCRATES: Then they are prudent, I suppose?
1673SOCRATES: Then voluntary ungracefulness comes from excellence of the bodily frame, and involuntary from the defect of the bodily frame?
1673SOCRATES: Then with a horse of better temper, vicious actions would be produced voluntarily; and with a horse of bad temper involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: Then, Hippias, he who voluntarily does wrong and disgraceful things, if there be such a man, will be the good man?
1673SOCRATES: Then, according to you, they are both powerful and wily, are they not?
1673SOCRATES: Then, according to your view, it would seem that the false are to be ranked in the class of the powerful and wise?
1673SOCRATES: Then, at a wrestling match, he who voluntarily does base and dishonourable actions is a better wrestler than he who does them involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: This would be the better mind for the purposes of archery?
1673SOCRATES: Well, and does not the same hold in that science also?
1673SOCRATES: Well, but at a wrestling match-- which is the better wrestler, he who falls voluntarily or involuntarily?
1673SOCRATES: Which of the two then is a better runner?
1673SOCRATES: Who can they be?
1673SOCRATES: Who, then, Hippias, is discovered to be false at calculation?
1673SOCRATES: Why, were not the voluntary liars only just now shown to be better than the involuntary?
1673Which is the better of the two?
1673Why do you not either refute his words, if he seems to you to have been wrong in any point, or join with us in commending him?
1673Will you tell me, and then I shall perhaps understand you better; has not Homer made Achilles wily?
1673Would the ignorant man be better able to tell a falsehood in matters of calculation than you would be, if you chose?
1673Would you not call a man able who could do that?
1673and in what particular does either surpass the other?
5221And who were the rascals who were being shaved last night by the light of the moon?
5221But why should I keep you longer in suspense? 5221 But why should they shave themselves like suppliants?"
5221But,demanded he,"what is this ambush?
5221Father,I quavered,"on your word of honor, can you tell me whose ship this is, and whom she has aboard?"
5221It is unfortunate,( said I to myself,)"that the lad has so taken our friend''s fancy, but what of it?
5221Not a bad scheme,Eumolpus agreed,"if it could only be carried out: but who could help seeing you when you start?
5221So someone aboard my ship cut off his hair, did he?
5221Still, what''s to prevent our searching the ship?

5221How can they fear my glory or see in my battles A menace?

5221If muffled, who would not want to lend the sick man a hand?
5221Is not nature''s every masterpiece common to all?
5221Oh thou lover eternally faithful to change, and Possession''s betrayer, dost own thyself crushed by the power Of Rome?
5221Or must it be fury and war and the blood- lust of daggers?"

7524Can you imagine that the Romans are as brave in war as they are licentious in peace? 7524 How often on a march, when embarrassed with mountains, bogs and rivers, have I heard the bravest among you exclaim,''When shall we descry the enemy? 7524 Might they not have been lost by some of these people in one of their landings? 7524 Tacitus answered,You know me from your reading,"to which the knight quickly replied,"Are you then Tacitus or Pliny?"

35472Are her sons slain?
35472Canst face mine eyes, fresh from thy deed of shame?
35472Is that so?
35472Is the coast clear? 35472 No,"is the answer:"Why should men be repelled by one another''s sufferings?"
35472The fire of Hell,to use Dr. Verrall''s phrase, has been let loose; rage, hatred, revenge, all blazing to the point of madness; what more can befall?
35472What hope can Iolaus possibly cherish?
35472Who are you? 35472 Why do they not rush in and save the children?"
35472Will not his own splendid Myrmidons protect him?

35472And what did this freedom and democracy mean?
35472Another large experiment of this time is the_ Phoenissae_, or_ Tyrian Women_( 410?).
35472But Apollo?
35472But then comes the thought, itself fraught with the wisdom of the sophists:"What if the multitude is bent on evil, or is blind?
35472But what was it of Admetus to let her die?
35472But why does it let out the secret of what is coming?
35472CHAPTER III LIFE CONTINUED: WHAT IS A GREEK TRAGEDY?
35472Can not we be made wise?
35472Can we in the least understand what he gained by it?
35472Did ye hear?
35472Fame and the crown of the East and chambers piled with gold, what are they all compared with Youth?"
35472For if He were not re- born, what would happen?
35472HENCHMAN Ye women, whither shall I go to seek King Theseus?
35472He tells his story of the Argive attack and its repulse from every gate.--"But what of the two brothers?"
35472Heard ye the children''s cry?
35472How closed the snare Of Heaven to slay the shamer of my blood?
35472How did he die?
35472How is the Messenger brought on?
35472If so, why is Apollo the villain of the piece?
35472Is Aristophanes ironical, and are the scholiasts and grammarians merely stupid?
35472Is he in this dwelling?
35472Is it a glorification of ancient Athens, her legends and her shrines?
35472Is it a pious offering to Apollo, the ancestor of the Ionian race?
35472Is it quite safe for Athens to break all laws of right?
35472Is this the result, one is inclined to ask, of the great ideals of democracy and enlightenment?
35472It is in a fragment of this play that we have the outcry of some sufferer: Doth any feign there is a God in heaven?
35472Jason has never been able to tell the truth to Medea yet; who could?
35472Nay, more, why must the cycle of summer and winter roll as it does?
35472Or is there some explanation for this extraordinary judgment?
35472Or will he even now soften?
35472Perhaps he was a miser and had secret stores of wealth?
35472Some new stroke hath touched, unknown to me The sister cities of my sovranty?
35472Something has happened, but what?
35472Suppose a wife murdered her husband, ought her son to slay her?
35472THESEUS What?
35472THESEUS(_ as though unmoved_) How slain?
35472The forbidden name is spoken; there is evidently a moment of shock, but how will Theseus take the news?
35472The note of the_ Medea_ was struck again some two years later( 426?)
35472The rude Theban herald enters asking,"Who is monarch of this land?"
35472Then you can not say, we may ask, that one or other impression is false, and will prove false on further inquiry?
35472There are many men who are evil but seem righteous; what if the man who is righteous seems to be evil?"
35472They would surely, as enlightened Athenians, prevent such atrocities?
35472This letter simply bids her not send the girl.--The Old Slave is bewildered;"What does it mean?"
35472Very likely just because the City, corrupted by the"charm of words,"had allowed such wicked sophists to live?
35472Was he not ashamed?"
35472Was there some other man, whose wife He had like mine defiled, who sought his life?
35472Were the consciences of the sackers of Melos quite easy during that prologue?
35472What does it mean?
35472What else is there in the basket?
35472What is her miserable life compared with his?
35472What is it about these men that has made them so different from you and me and the other farmers who meet in the agora on market- day?
35472What is it?
35472What must his personal life be, if these were his principles?
35472What of him?
35472What sort of man do they take him for, to use his name thus without his authority?
35472What, then, shall be our method in approaching him?
35472Why could not they ask his consent?
35472Why does it spoil the excitement beforehand?
35472Why must"He"die and men die?
35472Why should the mothers''grief be made more bitter?
35472Why then this large place in Thucydides''brief and severe narrative?
35472Will Theseus guess?
35472Will Theseus turn in fury on the speaker?
35472Will he see that this is one of his son''s servants?
35472Will he soften?
35472Wilt verily Spill with thine hand that life, the vintage stored Of thine own agony?
35472Yes?"
35472_ Voice of a Child within._ What shall I do?
35472says the angry father in this play; and his son answers,"What_ is_ shame, when the doer feels no shame?"
35472what else can you expect of them?
35472what would ye?
35472who is it?
6003All powerful Jove Who sways the world below and heaven above, Has sent me down with this severe command: What means thy lingering in the Libyan land? 6003 Are you not ashamed, Trojans,"cried he,"to be a second time shut up behind walls?
6003But tell me,said the king,"why did they make this horse?
6003Citizens,he exclaimed,"will you still persist in talking about peace even now that the enemy is almost at your doors?"
6003Do you dare, base Trojans,said she,"to make war upon us after killing our oxen?
6003How has this discord arisen? 6003 Is it not a shame, Rutulians, to permit one man to expose his life to danger for you all?
6003Must I then,said she,"desist from my purpose?
6003Noble heroine,replied the Rutulian chief,"how can I express my thanks?
6003Through every heart a shudder ran,''Apollo''s victim-- who the man?''
6003What offence, O king of heaven,said she,"has my AEneas committed?
6003What other fortifications have you but this? 6003 Whither do you flee?"
6003Whither do you rush?
6003Why do I live, my son,cried he,"at the cost of thy life?
6003Why do you attempt,said he,"what you have not strength to accomplish?
6003Ye gods,said he,"why do you seek to alter the decrees of heaven?
6003AEneas answered:"None of your sisters have we seen, O virgin, or shall we call you goddess, for such you seem to be?
6003Am I to wait until it pleases Turnus to accept my challenge?
6003Am I, the queen of heaven, not able to prevent the Trojans from establishing their kingdom in Italy?
6003Appalled at the sight, Aeneas stood in silence gazing at the apparition while it thus spoke:"Beloved husband, why do you give way to grief?
6003Are they to be forever persecuted on account of the anger of one goddess?"
6003Are you not ashamed?
6003Are you so foolish as to suppose that the enemy are gone, or that any offering of theirs can be free from deception?
6003Do you dare to drive the Harpies from the place which is their own?
6003Have you forgotten your father Anchises and your wife and little son?
6003Have you no pity for your own people?
6003Have you no regard for your unhappy country, your ancient gods, or your great leaders?"
6003He knew that he must obey, but how could he break the intelligence to Dido, or what excuse could he offer for so sudden a departure?
6003How have the Trojans offended?
6003How was AEneas to find out the wonderful tree?
6003If upon your death I am resolved to make an alliance with the Trojans, is it not better to put an end to the war while you are still alive?"
6003Shall one man be permitted to work such destruction in our camp?
6003Was it for a religious purpose or as an engine of war?"
6003What is to be the end of their sufferings?
6003What madness has brought you to Italy?
6003What miserable doom does fortune reserve for us?
6003What should he say, or how should he begin?
6003What will not men to slake such thirst?
6003When they had eaten the fruit, they proceeded to eat the cakes, upon which Iulus exclaimed,"What, are we eating our tables too?"
6003Where is your regard for me?
6003Who then will hereafter worship Juno or offer sacrifices on her altars?"
6003Why do you hesitate to march against them?"
6003Why do you hesitate to take advantage of it?
6003Why should we not settle here in Sicily?
6003Why then have you incited them to arms?
6003Why then should we permit fear to overcome us almost at the beginning of the struggle?
6003Will he approve the union of the two nations?
6003dost thou, dost thou to grace pretend, Clad, as thou art, in trophies of my friend?
6003why do you tear an unhappy wretch?
10096''Fore God, the wisdoms and the greatnesses Of seeming, are they hollow all, as things Of naught?
10096''Tis bitter that mine eye Should see it.... O ye Argives, was your spear Keen, and your hearts so low and cold, to fear This babe?

10096And I, whose slave am I, The shaken head, the arm that creepeth by, Staff- crutchèd, like to fall?
10096And comest thou now Forth, and hast decked thy bosom and thy brow, And breathest with thy lord the same blue air, Thou evil heart?
10096And hast thou turned from the Altar of frankincense, And given to the Greek thy temple of Ilion?
10096And her own Prize that God promised Out of the golden clouds, her virgin crown?...
10096And is it granted that I speak, or no, In answer to them ere I die, to show I die most wronged and innocent?

10096And thou, Polyxena, Where art thou?
10096And thou, what tears can tell thy doom?
10096And will ye leave her downstricken, A woman, and so old?
10096And yet, what help?...
10096And, to say nothing of Zeus, how can the Goddess of Morning rise and shine upon us uncaring?
10096Argos, belike, or Phthia shall it be, Or some lone island of the tossing sea, Far, far from Troy?
10096But what minion of the Greek Is this that cometh, with new words to speak?
10096Canst thou see help, or refuge anywhere?
10096Dear God, what would they?

10096Why didst thou cheat me so?
10096Why raise me any more?
10096Why should I speak the shame of them, before They come?...
10096Why will ye slay this innocent, that seeks No wrong?...
10096Will they leave him here to build again The wreck?...
10096Yea, and thou, And these that lie around, do they not know?
10096Yet I would ask thee, what decree is gone Forth for my life or death?
10096and is it come, the end of all, The very crest and summit of my days?
10096p. 35"Why call on things so weak?"
10096who is there That prayeth heaven, and in so strange a prayer?
5219A poor man and a rich man were enemies,Agamemmon began, when:"What''s a poor man?"
5219But why is n''t Fortunata at the table, Gaius? 5219 But,"demanded Trimalchio,"what did you have for dinner''?"
5219Habinnas, you were there, I think, I''ll leave it to you; did n''t he say--''You took your wife out of a whore- house''? 5219 What do you think about this?"
5219What do you think of the fellow in the freedman''s place? 5219 What should we say was the hardest calling, after literature?"
5219What''s so funny, you curly- headed onion,he bellowed,"are the Saturnalia here, I''d like to know?
5219What''s that,Trimalchio replied;"do n''t you know her better than that?
5219What''s that?
5219What''s that?
5219When did you pay your twentieth? 5219 When were the gardens at Pompeii bought for me?"
5219Why do you pray to me?
5219Why has n''t one of you asked my Fortunata to dance?
5219You have n''t had anything to eat yet, have you?
5219You see these things, do n''t you?
5219''Is Ulysses no better known?''
5219''Is everything in its place?''
5219A draggled fox is a fine sight, ai n''t it''?
5219Ai n''t that the truth, you high- stepping hussy''?
5219And honestly, what did that fellow ever do for us?
5219As he had often experienced byplay of this sort he explained,"You see that fellow who is carving the meat, do n''t you?
5219But I say, you did n''t think I''d be satisfied with any such dinner as you saw on the top of that tray?
5219But as for Trimalchio,"What the hell''s next?"
5219But what does it amount to?
5219CHAPTER THE FORTY- SIXTH"Agamemnon, your looks seem to say, What''s this boresome nut trying to hand us?''
5219Do you see all those cushions?
5219He has a good front, too, has n''t he?
5219He''s worth my attention, ai n''t he?
5219How could Glyco ever imagine that a sprig of Hermogenes''planting could turn out well?
5219How could anyone forget to draw a hog?
5219How could the slave go wrong when he only obeyed orders?
5219How old would you think he was?
5219How''s this-- what part of us am I?
5219I took her off the auction block and made her a woman among her equals, did n''t I?
5219I''d rather have my reputation than riches, for my part, and before I make an end of this-- who ever dunned me twice?
5219I''m of the opinion that the first was the more eloquent, but that the last moralizes more beautifully, for what can excel these lines?
5219India surrenders her pearls; and what mean they to thee?
5219Is his family so damned fine- haired?
5219Is it December now?
5219Or the fire of the ruby?
5219See the fellow reclining at the bottom of the end couch?
5219So you''re laughing, are you, Fortunata?
5219That thy wife decked with sea- spoils adorning her breast and her head On the couch of a stranger lies lifting adulterous legs?
5219The emerald green, the glass bauble, what mean they to thee?
5219There came a pause, presently, and"You do n''t any of you know the plot of the skit they''re putting on, do you?"
5219Trimalchio scrutinized it closely and"What the hell,"he suddenly bawled out,"this hog hain''t been gutted, has it?
5219Trimalchio shouted,"You''d think he''d only left out a bit of pepper and cummin, would n''t you?
5219Was ever anyone nearer dead from fright than me?
5219Well, it''s because the bronze worker I patronize is named Corinthus, and what''s Corinthian unless it''s what a Corinthus makes?
5219Well, what are you gaping at now, like a billy- goat in a vetch- field?"
5219Well, what of it?
5219What is there left to tell?
5219What part of us grows but always grows less?
5219What part of us runs but never moves from its place?
5219What t''hell do I care who laughs?
5219What the hell''s he got to laugh at?
5219What would you think happened then?
5219What''s going to happen to this town, if neither gods nor men take pity on it?
5219What''s he got to kick about''?
5219What''s this to you, you gallows- bird, you crow''s meat?
5219What, grunting- sow, still bawling?
5219When the crestfallen cook stood at the table and owned up that he had forgotten to bowel him,"So you forgot, did you?"
5219When the fellow made answer that he was from the fortieth,"Were you bought, or born upon my estates?"
5219Who could hold a candle to me except, of course, the one and only Apelles?"
5219Why do we have to put up with an AEdile here, who''s not worth three Caunian figs and who thinks more of an as than of our lives?
5219You do n''t think I lost my pep, do you?
5219You have n''t entertained us at all, have you?
5219You''ve got more coin than we have, have you?
1181Laws,831 C. If it be pleaded that persuasion is his instrument, not violence; is that no reason rather for a deeper loathing?
1181Rep.521 A;"Laws,"678 C. And you, Socrates, yourself( their host demanded), what is it you pride yourself upon?
1181Where will he find a teacher to instruct him in that wisdom?
1181( 13) Does not this worthy person strike you as somewhat like a bully seeking to pick a quarrel?
1181( 16) But what( he added, turning to Critobulus) do you most pride yourself upon?
1181( 2) Was it not enough to set before your guests a faultless dinner, but you must feast our eyes and ears on sights and sounds the most delicious?
1181( 31) Now all is changed, and who will be at pains to ask me out to dinner any more?
1181( 32) Philippus would seem to have anticipated Mr. Woodward; see Prologue to"She Stoops to Conquer": Pray, would you know the reason I''m crying?
1181( 39) Are not all these the outward tokens of true loveliness?
1181( 56) Is Antisthenes thinking of Callias and Hermogenes?
1181( 6) Is that your statement?
1181( 70) Is not Xenophon imputing himself to Socrates?
1181( 8) Or,"Have you the knowledge also how to play the king?"
1181( 83)( Socrates exclaimed, when he heard that), what crime can they conceive your boy is guilty of that they should wish to make an end of him?
1181( 86) Is it not at your house that their noblest citizens are lodged as representatives of a foreign state?
1181( 90) Are you agreed to that?
1181( 92) Are you agreed to that?
1181( 98)( 98) Or,"going to give up business, and hand on the trade to me as your successor?"
1181( cried Antisthenes); and pray how?
1181142 D. You have not forgotten( interposed Antisthenes), perhaps, that besides yourself there is not a rhapsodist who does not know these epics?
1181158 C. The company were charmed to hear him speak, and turned and looked; and some one asked: On what is it then, Autolycus?
1181And I must needs believe you, for are you not all honourable men?
1181And amongst all animals, you will tell us that the crab has loveliest eyes?
1181And did you ever come across a sillier tribe of people than these same rhapsodists?
1181And do you pretend to make their souls more righteous by putting money in their pockets?
1181And how do you do that, good sir?
1181And if his name died on my lips, think you my mind would less recall his memory?
1181And if that happened, you on your side, it appears, believe the boy will be corrupted?
1181And is he the better go- between who can make his clients pleasing to one person only, or can make them pleasing to a number?
1181And is there anything more transcendental than the gods?
1181And now you, Lycon, tell us, wo n''t you( asked Antisthenes), what it is you take the greatest pride in?
1181And now, sir, if you do not like this frigid( 10) argument, why do you cause me trouble?
1181And pray, do they repay you these same moneys?
1181And there are words that bear the stamp of hate, and words that tend to friendliness?
1181And this friendship, what is it?
1181And to this his very name bears witness, for is it not written in Homer?
1181And what may that be?
1181And what use will you make of them?
1181And whence shall a man obtain this chrism?
1181And why?
1181And you, Hermogenes, on what do you plume yourself most highly?
1181And, further, that towards agreeableness, one step at any rate consists in wearing a becoming fashion of the hair and dress?
1181Are you agreed it is the business of a good go- between to make him( or her) on whom he plies his art agreeable to those with them?
1181Are you agreed?
1181Are you aware that you at present are annoying us by silence?
1181Are you that person commonly nicknamed the thinker?
1181At this remark they turned their eyes upon the speaker, and several spoke together, asking: Will you make them known to us?
1181At which sight Callias, turning to the father: Do you know you are the richest man in the whole world, Lycon?
1181But consider, a snubness of the nose, how is that more beautiful than straightness?
1181But how is it that you alone, Antisthenes, you misanthrope, love nobody?
1181But if my tongue is not to wag, whatever shall I do to earn my dinner?
1181But the lover who depends upon the body,( 41) what of him?
1181But what can he expect, who stretches forth an eager hand to clutch the body, save to be treated( 47) as a beggar?
1181But what is it you keep on laughing at-- the wish on my part to reduce to moderate size a paunch a trifle too rotund?
1181But whence, then?
1181Can you explain to us?
1181Can you tell me, then, what need is satisfied by our eyes?
1181Did ever man anoint himself with oil of myrrh to please his fellow?
1181Do you consider that the quality of beauty is confined to man, or is it to be found in other objects also?
1181Do you hear that, my son?
1181Do you hesitate?
1181Eh, bless my ears, what''s that?
1181First, why should love- for- love be given to such a lover?
1181For what lover would not choose rather to be seen by all mankind than by his beloved, either when abandoning his post or throwing away his arms?
1181Have you the cramp?
1181Here Callias demanded: And when our friend( Antisthenes) essays to cross- examine people( 3) at a banquet, what kind of piping( 4) should he have?
1181Here Lycon interposed: That may be well enough for youths, but what shall we do whose gymnastic days are over?
1181How can you boast of so discredited an art?
1181How is it possible that things, in no respect resembling one another, should each and all be beautiful?
1181How so?
1181How value less the gods, not more, if being above us they make the void of use to send us rain, and cause their light to shine on us?
1181How, in the first place, is it possible for him to hate a lover who, he knows, regards him as both beautiful and good?
1181Is it not from want?
1181Is that conclusive?
1181Is that the source of merriment?
1181Must I discourse to you in answer to the flute?
1181No doubt, upon the boy?
1181Oh, Socrates( he answered, deprecatingly), will you not leave it to the arbitrament of Cleinias?
1181Or would desert his beloved or fail him in the hour of danger?
1181Pray how?
1181Pray( interposed Antisthenes),( 7) do you also know the way to be a king?
1181Pray, do you find it so ridiculous my wishing to improve my health by exercise?
1181Pray, where''s the wonder?
1181Sausage Seller.... What for?
1181Shall we feast on perfumes also?
1181Since when, then?
1181Since when?
1181So beautiful you claim to rival me, you boaster?
1181Socrates replied: Do you suppose the sad condition of the patient dates from the moment only of our intimacy?
1181The good go- between will therefore make his choice between them, and teach only what conduces to agreeableness?
1181The other( in a tone of deep vexation): Pray, what thing of the sort are you aware I ever perpetrated?
1181Then Callias: What ails you, sirrah?
1181Then Socrates: Will you never tire of repeating that one name?
1181Then you possess large property in land?
1181They could hear the question asked by Dionysus, did she love him?
1181This is obvious; or else, why do states and nations, one and all, inquire of the gods by divination what they ought to do and what they ought not?
1181To come to our two noses, which is the more handsome, yours or mine?
1181To which the host: And that reminds me, a supply of unguents might not be amiss;( 3) what say you?
1181Was Cleinias there as a"muta persona"?
1181Well then, do they requite your gifts of gold with gratitude?
1181Well, and what is it you pride yourself upon, Antisthenes?
1181Well, let that be( the other answered); answer me one question: How many fleas''feet distance is it, pray, from you to me?
1181Well, on what then?
1181What can it be, you laughter- making man, except to set folk laughing?
1181What does it seem?
1181What fragrance is left for us?
1181What have you to say to justify your choice?
1181What is your belief on this point?
1181What( Socrates rejoined), shall you be able to maintain that by your beauty you can make us better?
1181What, then, to nothing, and to nobody?
1181What, whilst you are talking?
1181What, would you have me imitate Nicostratus( 1) the actor, reciting his tetrameters( 2) to the music of the fife?
1181What, would you have me then compare him to worse villains?
1181When shall I find my willing heart All taken up by Thee?
1181Whereat Socrates turned to the silent man, and thus accosted him: Hermogenes, what is a drunken brawl?
1181Whereat Socrates: When will you have done with your gibes, Callias?
1181Whereupon Hermogenes inquired: Had he then a large amount of money?
1181Which surely is a better fate than to be called a thoughtless person?
1181Whom do we choose to bear the sacred olive- shoot( 31) in honour of Athena?--whom else save beautiful old men?
1181Why do men steal?
1181You can render people just to all the world, but towards yourself you can not?
1181You do n''t spend nights with him?
1181and with the same tongue and lips and voice may speak with modesty or boastfulnes?
1181and you, sir( turning to the Syracusan), what do you pride yourself upon?
1181are you going to pass on the business?
1181because, forsooth, he bestows upon himself what he desires, and upon his minion things of dire reproach?
1181by teaching them some base mechanic art?
1181exclaimed another; to which a third rejoined:"Why should it not be learnt as well as other things?"
1181he there-- caught me only the other morning in the act of dancing?
1181is it likely( he replied), considering I had to listen to them almost daily?
1181or is it the sort of exercise I set my heart on?
1181or teaching them nobility of soul?
1181or that what he hastens to exact, infallibly must separate that other from his nearest friends?
1181or to enjoy my victuals better?
1181the toothache?
1181to sleep better?
1181what ampler greatcoat than the tiles above my head?
1181what?
1181why break burglariously into houses?
1181why hale men and women captive and make slaves of them?
1181will you devolve this art of yours on me as your successor, Socrates?
1181you do n''t say so?

47677And am I to endure it?
47677And could you, forsooth, have preferred Hermione[ 990] to Helen?
47677And dost thou entrust, madman, the timid doves to the hawk?
47677And is any one in my presence to be making signs to my mistress?
47677And is not my anger to hurry me away to any extreme?

47677But the unhappy father, a father now no longer, cried aloud,"Icarus, where art thou?

47677By whom have not been lamented the flames[ 757] of the Ephyrean Creusa?

47677What but fame alone is sought by the hallowed Poets?
47677What can a keeper do, when there are so many Theatres in the City?
47677What discreet person would not mingle kisses with tender words?

47677What is there harder than stone?
47677What meant, Menelaus, this stupidity of thine?
47677What more yielding than water?
47677What must I do?
47677What need is there to be teaching stratagems and trifling precepts, when the keeper may be purchased by the smallest present?
47677What safety is there, while the defiler of character exists, and desires to be thought that he is that which it has not proved his lot to be?
47677What should they do?

47677What was becoming to Phoebus, to whom is it not becoming?
47677What was there for Andromeda, when bound, less to hope for, than that her tears could possibly charm any one?
47677What was there more coy than Atalanta of Nonacris?
47677What, Parthian, dost thou leave to the conquered, who dost fly that thou mayst overcome?
47677What, Procris, were thy feelings, when thus, in thy frenzy, thou didst he concealed?
47677What, wretched man, art thou about?
47677When a female confidant can carry the note you have penned, which her broad girth[ 1113] can conceal in her warm bosom?
47677When she is sitting in attendance upon the sistra of the Pharian heifer, and at the place where her male friends are forbidden to go?
47677When, eagerly she is a spectator of the harnessed steeds?
47677Where now is this violence?
47677Whither, in my folly, am I led on?
47677Who could have supposed it?

47677Why is the smell of the oesypum[ 1042] so powerful, sent from Athens though it be, an extract drawn from the filthy fleece of the sheep?
47677Why mention Baiæ,[ 747] and the shores covered with sails, and the waters which send forth the smoke from the warm sulphur?
47677Why mention Byblis, who burned with a forbidden passion for her brother, and who resolutely atoned with the halter for her crimes?
47677Why should I recommend you to send tender lines as well?
47677Why should your mistress be able to say of you,"There is no getting rid of this man?"
47677Why with bared breast do I strive against the foe, and why, myself, am I betrayed through information that is my own?
47677Why, Phineus, dost thou tear out the eyes of thy guiltless sons?
47677Why, foolish one, art thou so often arranging thy smoothed locks?
47677Why, learned Erato, art thou thus diverging into the medical art?
47677Why, with gentle voice, Deidamia, dost thou detain the perpetrator of thy disgrace?
47677You inquire if it is of use[ 764] to win the handmaid herself?
47677[ 974] Who would dare to publish to the profane the rites of Ceres,[ 975] and the great mysteries that were established in the Thracian Samos?

47677how oft with jealous look does she eye a cow, and say,"Why is she thus pleasing to my love?
658Phoebus, why dost thou in mine own despite Stir me to fight with Gods, and wouldst protect The arrogant Trojans? 658 All, was it that the sons Of Troy might win a breathing- space from woes, Might come and slay the Greeks, now thou art not? 658 And is she not the child of thine own seed? 658 And thoughtest thou to fare Home from the war alive, to bear with thee Right royal gifts from Priam the old king, Thy guerdon for slain Argives? 658 And where the might that should beseem a king All- stainless? 658 Answer me, who art thou? 658 But first Eurypylus cried the challenge- cry;Who art thou?
658But wherefore for Achilles''glorious arms With words discourteous wrangling stand we here?
658But why like witless children stand we here Babbling our parents''fame and our own deeds?
658But why should I consort, I, a brave man, with the abominable?
658Dost not know what misery This self- same woman- madness wrought for Troy?
658Fool, wherefore hast thou ruthlessly destroyed Trojans, and vaunted thee the mightiest man Of men, a deathless Nereid''s son?
658Glory waits our toil?"
658Ha, dost thou hope still to return, to''scape Mine hands?
658Ha, in thy many helpers dost thou trust Who with thee, like so many worthless flies, Flit round the noble Achilles''corpse?
658Hath Zeus forgotten his daughter''s paramour?
658He spake: with scornful glance and bitter speech Odysseus the resourceful chode with him:"Aias, unbridled tongue, why these vain words To me?
658If Quintus did not follow the Cyclic poets, from what source did he draw his materials?
658Know''st thou not That round all men which dwell upon the earth Hovereth irresistible deadly Fate, Who recks not even of the Gods?
658My ships?
658Or my despair, my day of slavery?
658Or shall we still maintain A hopeless fight against these ruthless foes, Or shall we straightway flee a city doomed?
658Shouted Achilles''son:"Ho, Priam''s son, why thus so mad to smite Those weaker Argives, who have feared thy wrath And fled thine onset?
658Sorry wretch, where now Is all thy goodly prowess?
658Then chode with him Anchises''valiant son:"Polydamas, wherefore do they call thee wise, Who biddest suffer endless tribulations Cooped within walls?
658Then cried a scoffing voice an ominous word:"Why doth a raving tongue of evil speech, Daughter of Priam, make thy lips to cry Words empty as wind?
658Then in hot anger Aias rose, and spake:"Odysseus, frantic soul, why hath a God Deluded thee, to make thee hold thyself My peer in might invincible?
658Then let us shrink not from the fray See ye not yonder a woman far excelling Men in the grapple of fight?
658Those unimagined ills my sons, my king Have suffered?
658Thou wretch, and doth thy false heart know not this, What man is an offence, and meriteth Suffering, and who is honoured of the Gods?
658What madness thrills thy soul?
658What profits it to call ill deeds to mind?"
658What, know ye not that to men sorely tried Prosperity and joyance follow toil?
658Whence hast come to brave me here?
658Where is Aias''bulk?
658Where skulketh now the strength of Tydeus''son, And where the might of Aeacus''scion?
658Who could rejoice Beholding strivings, struggles of despair?
658Who cozened thee to come Forth against me?
658Who is of more avail For war than Ares, when he aideth men Hard- fighting?
658Whomso he met besides he slew-- the names What man could tell of all that by the hands Of Neoptolemus died?
658Whose be the steeds that bear thee exultant on?"
658art not shamed To let some evil Power beguile thine heart To pity of a pitiful Amazon Whose furious spirit purposed naught but ill To us and ours?
658have we not Endured much battle- travail heretofore?
658how wilt thou meet the Nereid''s eyes, When she shall stand in Zeus''hall midst the Gods, Who praised thee once, and loved as her own son?"
658is she not Most wondrous like the heavenly Goddesses?
658or my city, or daughters shamed?
658what sorrows first or last shall I Lament heart- anguished, who am full of woes?
658where now is Love''s Queen glory- crowned?
658where thy wit?
658why do the Gods abhor me so?
658why with arrogant heart dost thou Speak such great swelling words?
35170''Tis ever found My helper in great perils.--Where doth lie Rhesus, mid all this host of Barbary?
35170''Tis ransom, then?
35170--It would be unparalleled in classical Greek to describe a man by his religion; but this phrase seems only to mean:"What is his tribal God?"
3517011- 28] Who goes there?
35170204- 223] What other raiment wilt thou need than this?
35170492- 509] Achilles?
35170585- 598] Could we not find Aeneas?
35170677- 685] Who is that fellow?
35170704- 724] This night must be Odysseus''work, or whose?-- Odysseus?
35170810- 834] And then pass back unwounded, laughing deep Amid the galleys at the news they bring Of Trojan sluggards and the fool their king?
3517091- 109] What is it?
35170915- 941] Returned from death to pierce my heart again?
35170A friend?
35170An ally?
35170And after?
35170And we, in dread What such things boded, turned and sped Hither; dost blame us, Lord?
35170Are ye in love with death?
35170Art thou a Greek to blind My barbarous wit so nimbly, in a wind Of words?
35170Aye, Hector will be hard.-- What will he say?--He will suspect.--Suspect?
35170Aye, to judge by ancient use.-- Odysseus surely!--That is thy belief?-- What else?
35170Block, Com''st thou to us with tidings of thy flock Here in the field in arms?
35170By what right Do men come prowling in the night Across my quarters?
35170Comes he alone or with his guards?
35170Did we not baulk and kill Dolon, their spy, and bear his tokens still?
35170Dost think the whole camp should be thine to quell?
35170Doth none Offer?
35170Doth not the Cyprian''s eye Mark all thy peril and keep watch above Thy battles?
35170Doth the Argive steal Some march, some ambush in the day''s eclipse?
35170Down with them!--Where are they?
35170Even as I held him fast, Laughed, and I loosed my hold?
35170From what nation do ye bring This host with aid to Ilion and her king?"
35170From whence?
35170Go by night searching through these lines of men For chiefs to kill?
35170God guide them!--Why then do you arm the host?
35170Had we any need Of seers to tell this was Odysseus''deed?
35170Have your eyes No sight?
35170Hector, what means it?
35170Ho, every man hold back his spear!-- Then know''st thou where the men are gone?
35170How can I live?
35170How can our men, returning, learn The tricks of the palisade?
35170How do his name and lineage run?
35170How know''st thou?--Have we proof that it is flight?
35170How not one blow?
35170How shall Achilles, how Shall Ajax bear him now, Or face thy lance?
35170How shall I forget the love I owe thee, and thy faithful offices?
35170How so?
35170I ran to seek Some scout or pioneer who led the van And called in Thracian:"Ho, what child of man Doth lead you?
35170In such a rout?
35170Is he of Thessaly, Born by the Locrian sea, Or harvester of some starved island''s corn?
35170Is it, then, the work of a somewhat imitative fourth- century poet, naturally influenced by his great forerunners?
35170Is there an ambush?
35170It seems he hath no fear Of such as we!--Whom praise ye there?
35170Master, dost think already that our foe Is ta''en?
35170Must I do everything, one hand Alone, to save our allies and our land?
35170My king, what cometh?
35170No?
35170Not Rhesus, here on Trojan soil?
35170O ancient City, O Ida''s daughter, Is God the Deliverer found indeed?
35170Or should we rouse the army?
35170Or the bed Of Paris the accurst, and have his head?
35170Right, left, or midmost in the allies?
35170Say, Diomede, wilt make the men thy share, Or catch the steeds and leave the fight to me?
35170Say, whose is the watch?
35170Say; what captain and what company?
35170Sleepest thou still?
35170Take All the Greek armies, is there one but he Could have devised, or dared, this devilry?
35170Tell me, what?
35170The chariots how Keep to the bridges on the trenches''brow, Save with jammed wheels and broken axles?
35170Then Rhesus taught us Trojans what avail His words are.--He comes early to the feast; Where was he when the hunters met the beast?
35170Then what of the other difficulties, the three different opening scenes and the few passages of late phrasing or technique?
35170There is nothing improbable in this suggestion, but have we any evidence?
35170These Greeks that face thee, are they not their best?
35170This is plain enough; but why were the Guards brought away from their original position-- from the orchestra to the stage?
35170Thou know''st the watchword, if we stir some guard?
35170Thou seem''st content to suffer, not to do?
35170Thou wilt not ask for Ajax, Îleus''son?
35170Thy house?
35170Tidings?
35170To some ambush is he gone?
35170To think thus pleasures thee?
35170Watchers in affright Who gather shouting at thy doors, and then Hold midnight council, shaking all our men?
35170What Greek could pass the screen Of Trojan posts in front of us, unseen?
35170What ally passes?
35170What art thou?
35170What evil?
35170What grave ambassadors prayed not before Thy throne, what herald knelt not at thy door?
35170What make ye, from these sleepers thus to part Desponding and with sorrow- wounded heart If Hector be not granted you to slay Nor Paris?
35170What makes he there towards Ida?
35170What makes them light their beacons?
35170What man hath seen his face?
35170What man of yours was slain or wounded when Your Greek spies came?
35170What means it?
35170What pride of gifts did Troy not send to thee?
35170What prisoner cravest thou?
35170What prize more rich than all?
35170What seeks the man?
35170What shall I deem of him, To steal thro''the guards a- row, Quaking not, eye nor limb, On thro''the starlight dim?
35170What station will best please thee in this fight To ground the targe and stablish thine array?
35170What stranger in that darkness could have trod Straight to where Rhesus lay-- unless some God Pointed his path?
35170What tidings?
35170What was his name or race, What the high God by whom his sires have sworn?
35170What will thy wrapping be?
35170What, feared?
35170What, strike an ally in the field?
35170Whence comest thou?
35170Where shall I find him now?
35170Where shall ye find the fool to mock Our works in war?
35170Where sleeps your king beneath his shield, Hector?
35170Where, when we sank beneath the Argive spear?
35170Who bears the blame Of this but thou?
35170Who comes?
35170Who cries?
35170Who drew the first night- watch?
35170Who exchanges With us?
35170Who is awake?
35170Who next to him hath honour in their host?
35170Who wants thee here?
35170Who was the man that passed?
35170Who will go tell The fifth watch?
35170Who will so help his fatherland?
35170Whom will he stab a- sleeping, whom, The quick grey wolf, the crawling doom?
35170Whose prowess?
35170Why didst thou-- not for lack of need made plain!-- Not come, not send, not think of us again?
35170Why have we still no word nor sign Of that scout in the Argive line?
35170Why threaten them?
35170Will murderers''nursing give me peace?
35170Wouldst have a daughter of the King to wife?
35170Ye gathered Trojans, sharers of my word, Who dares to creep through the Greek lines alone?
35170_ i.e._ what is his tribe?
35170or am I full of void alarms?
3012( 1) And why dress in these miserable tragic rags?
3012( 1) What do you bring?

3012AMPHITHEUS Has anyone spoken yet?
3012AMPHITHEUS Oh, Triptolemus and Ceres, do ye thus forsake your own blood?
3012AMPHITHEUS Well?
3012Am I a beggar?
3012And as to the rest, what do you wish to sell me?
3012And this other one?
3012And you, Dracyllus, Euphorides or Prinides, have you knowledge of Ecbatana or Chaonia?
3012Art thou sensible of the dangerous battle we are about to engage upon in defending the Lacedaemonians?
3012BOEOTIAN Anchovies, pottery?
3012BOEOTIAN And what will you give me in return?
3012BOEOTIAN What harm have I done you?
3012But HAVE you brought me a treaty?
3012But as you are so strong, why did you not circumcise me?
3012But come( there are only friends who hear me), why accuse the Laconians of all our woes?
3012But how, great gods?
3012But what else is doing at Megara, eh?
3012But who would make so sorry a deal as to buy you?
3012But will you buy anything of me, some chickens or some locusts?
3012CHORUS Acharnians, what means this threat?

3012HERALD Who asks to speak?
3012HERALD Your name?
3012Has he got one of our children in his house?
3012I may not denounce our enemies?
3012I see another herald running up; what news does he bring me?
3012Is it not Straton?
3012Is it not to convict him from the outset?
3012Is this not a scandal?
3012LAMACHUS But what have you said?
3012LAMACHUS What are you then?
3012LAMACHUS Whence comes this cry of battle?
3012LAMACHUS Why do you embrace me?
3012LAMACHUS You are but a mendicant and you dare to use language of this sort?

3012SECOND SEMI- CHORUS Where are you running to?
3012SLAVE Who''s there?
3012Shall we wager and submit the matter to Lamachus, which of the two is the best to eat, a locust or a thrush?
3012Speak, Marilades, you have grey hair; well then, have you ever been entrusted with a mission?
3012Suppose that a Lacedaemonian had seized a little Seriphian(4) dog on any pretext and had sold it, would you have endured it quietly?
3012That is what you assuredly would have done, and would not Telephus have done the same?
3012Then our ambassadors are seeking to deceive us?
3012Those in which I rigged out Aeneus(1) on the stage, that unhappy, miserable old man?

3012what are you going to say?
3012what are you proposing to do?
3012what bird''s?
3012where must I bring my aid?
3012where must I sow dread?
3012who wants me to uncase my dreadful Gorgon''s head?
3012will you hear them squeal?
3012will you kill this coal- basket, my beloved comrade?
3012you declare war against birds?
1580), said he; did I ever acknowledge that those who do the business of others are temperate?
1580Admitting this view, I ask of you, what good work, worthy of the name wise, does temperance or wisdom, which is the science of itself, effect?
1580And are not we looking and seeking after something more than is to be found in her?
1580And are they temperate, seeing that they make not for themselves or their own business only?
1580And are you about to use violence, without even going through the forms of justice?
1580And can that be good which does not make men good?
1580And do they make or do their own business only, or that of others also?
1580And does not he who does his duty act temperately or wisely?
1580And he who does so does his duty?
1580And he who judges rightly will judge of the physician as a physician in what relates to these?
1580And he who would enquire into the nature of medicine must pursue the enquiry into health and disease, and not into what is extraneous?
1580And in all that concerns either body or soul, swiftness and activity are clearly better than slowness and quietness?
1580And in leaping and running and in bodily exercises generally, quickness and agility are good; slowness, and inactivity, and quietness, are bad?
1580And in playing the lyre, or wrestling, quickness or sharpness are far better than quietness and slowness?
1580And is it not better to teach another quickly and energetically, rather than quietly and slowly?
1580And is not shrewdness a quickness or cleverness of the soul, and not a quietness?
1580And is temperance a good?
1580And medicine is distinguished from other sciences as having the subject- matter of health and disease?
1580And that knowledge which is nearest of all, I said, is the knowledge of what?
1580And the inference is that temperance can not be modesty-- if temperance is a good, and if modesty is as much an evil as a good?
1580And the odd and even numbers are not the same with the art of computation?
1580And the same holds in boxing and in the pancratium?
1580And the temperate are also good?
1580And they are right, and you would agree with them?
1580And to read quickly or slowly?
1580And was there anything meddling or intemperate in this?
1580And what if I am?
1580And what is it?
1580And what is the meaning of a man doing his own business?
1580And which is better, to call to mind, and to remember, quickly and readily, or quietly and slowly?
1580And which, I said, is better-- facility in learning, or difficulty in learning?
1580And why, he replied, will not wisdom be of use?
1580And will wisdom give health?
1580And yet if reading and writing are the same as doing, you were doing what was not your own business?
1580And yet were you not saying, just now, that craftsmen might be temperate in doing another''s work, as well as in doing their own?
1580And you would infer that temperance is not only noble, but also good?
1580Are not these, my friend, the real advantages which are to be gained from wisdom?
1580Are you right, Charmides?
1580But all sciences have a subject: number is the subject of arithmetic, health of medicine-- what is the subject of temperance or wisdom?
1580But can any one attain the knowledge of either unless he have a knowledge of medicine?
1580But even if knowledge can know itself, how does the knowledge of what we know imply the knowledge of what we do not know?
1580But is knowledge or want of knowledge of health the same as knowledge or want of knowledge of justice?
1580But must the physician necessarily know when his treatment is likely to prove beneficial, and when not?
1580But of what is this knowledge?
1580But surely we are assuming a science of this kind, which, having no subject- matter, is a science of itself and of the other sciences?
1580But temperance, whose presence makes men only good, and not bad, is always good?
1580But then what profit, Critias, I said, is there any longer in wisdom or temperance which yet remains, if this is wisdom?
1580But what matter, said Charmides, from whom I heard this?
1580But where does Dr. Jackson find any such notion as this in Plato or anywhere in ancient philosophy?
1580But which is best when you are at the writing- master''s, to write the same letters quickly or quietly?
1580But which most tends to make him happy?
1580But why do you not call him, and show him to us?
1580Can you show me any such result of them?
1580Can you tell me?
1580Chaerephon called me and said: What do you think of him, Socrates?
1580Could there be any desire which is not the desire of any pleasure, but of itself, and of all other desires?
1580Did you ever observe that this is what they say?
1580Do you admit that?
1580Do you mean a knowledge of shoemaking?
1580Do you mean that this doing or making, or whatever is the word which you would use, of good actions, is temperance?
1580For is not the discovery of things as they truly are, a good common to all mankind?
1580For why should Aristotle, because he has quoted several Dialogues of Plato, have quoted them all?
1580Has he not a beautiful face?
1580Have we not long ago asseverated that wisdom is only the knowledge of knowledge and of ignorance, and of nothing else?
1580He will consider whether what he says is true, and whether what he does is right, in relation to health and disease?
1580How can you think that I have any other motive in refuting you but what I should have in examining into myself?
1580How is that?
1580How is this riddle to be explained?
1580How so?
1580How then can wisdom be advantageous, when giving no advantage?
1580How will wisdom, regarded only as a knowledge of knowledge or science of science, ever teach him that he knows health, or that he knows building?
1580I asked; do you mean to say that doing and making are not the same?
1580I have no particular drift, but I wish that you would tell me whether a physician who cures a patient may do good to himself and good to another also?
1580I said, or without my consent?
1580I said; is not this rather the effect of medicine?
1580I was, he replied; but what is your drift?
1580In order, then, that I may form a conjecture whether you have temperance abiding in you or not, tell me, I said, what, in your opinion, is Temperance?
1580Is it of him you are speaking or of some one else?
1580Is not medicine, I said, the science of health?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is not that true?
1580Is that true?
1580Is the scribe, for example, to be regarded as doing nothing when he reads or writes?
1580Just as that which is greater is of a nature to be greater than something else?
1580Let us consider the matter in this way: If the wise man or any other man wants to distinguish the true physician from the false, how will he proceed?
1580May I infer this to be the knowledge of the game of draughts?
1580Now, I want to know, what is that which is not wisdom, and of which wisdom is the science?
1580Or can you imagine a wish which wishes for no good, but only for itself and all other wishes?
1580Or did you ever know of a fear which fears itself or other fears, but has no object of fear?
1580Or does wisdom do the work of any of the other arts,--do they not each of them do their own work?
1580Or if there be a double which is double of itself and of other doubles, these will be halves; for the double is relative to the half?
1580Or in wool, or wood, or anything of that sort?
1580Or is there a kind of hearing which hears no sound at all, but only itself and other sorts of hearing, or the defects of them?
1580Or of an opinion which is an opinion of itself and of other opinions, and which has no opinion on the subjects of opinion in general?
1580Or of computation?
1580Or of health?
1580Or of working in brass?
1580Or would you say that there is a love which is not the love of beauty, but of itself and of other loves?
1580Please, therefore, to inform me whether you admit the truth of what Critias has been saying;--have you or have you not this quality of temperance?
1580Shall I tell you the nature of the difficulty?
1580Shall I tell you, Socrates, why I say all this?
1580Shall we speak of the soul and its qualities, of virtue, power, wisdom, and the like, as feminine or neuter?
1580That is your meaning?
1580The beautiful youth, Charmides, who is also the most temperate of human beings, is asked by Socrates,''What is Temperance?''
1580Then I suppose that modesty is and is not good?
1580Then he who is ignorant of these things will only know that he knows, but not what he knows?
1580Then how will this knowledge or science teach him to know what he knows?
1580Then not he who does evil, but he who does good, is temperate?
1580Then temperance, I said, will not be doing one''s own business; not at least in this way, or doing things of this sort?
1580Then, I said, in all bodily actions, not quietness, but the greatest agility and quickness, is noblest and best?
1580Then, as would seem, in doing good, he may act wisely or temperately, and be wise or temperate, but not know his own wisdom or temperance?
1580Then, before we see his body, should we not ask him to show us his soul, naked and undisguised?
1580Then, in reference to the body, not quietness, but quickness will be the higher degree of temperance, if temperance is a good?
1580Think over all this, and, like a brave youth, tell me-- What is temperance?
1580Very good, I said; and are you quite sure that you know my name?
1580Very good, I said; and did you not admit, just now, that temperance is noble?
1580Very good, I said; and now let me repeat my question-- Do you admit, as I was just now saying, that all craftsmen make or do something?
1580Was he a fool who told you, Charmides?
1580Was he right who affirmed that?
1580Was not that your statement?
1580Was not this, Critias, what we spoke of as the great advantage of wisdom-- to know what is known and what is unknown to us?
1580Well then, this science of which we are speaking is a science of something, and is of a nature to be a science of something?
1580Well, I said; but surely you would agree with Homer when he says,''Modesty is not good for a needy man''?
1580Were we not right in making that admission?
1580What do you mean?
1580What do you mean?
1580What is that?
1580What makes you think so?
1580Which is less, if the other is conceived to be greater?
1580Who is he, I said; and who is his father?
1580Why not, I said; but will he come?
1580Why not?
1580With my consent?
1580Yes, I said; and facility in learning is learning quickly, and difficulty in learning is learning quietly and slowly?
1580Yet I should like to know one thing more: which of the different kinds of knowledge makes him happy?
1580You sirs, I said, what are you conspiring about?
1580and in what cases do you mean?
1580or do all equally make him happy?
1580or must the craftsman necessarily know when he is likely to be benefited, and when not to be benefited, by the work which he is doing?
1580the knowledge of what past, present, or future thing?
47157Art thou come again,she cried,"to bear me to some son of earth beloved of thee, that I may serve his pleasure to my own shame?
47157Him answered swift- footed Achilles:Why, dearest and most honored, hast thou hither come, to lay on me this thy behest?
47157How long will ye lie idle?
47157Is she heavier than she used to be?
47157What mean you,they exclaim,"by scenting like a dog for blood upon this royal threshold?"
47157What was Laius like?
47157What,he asks,"is the value of tears now, of prayers now?
47157What,says the messenger,"do you fear her because she is your mother?
47157Where did you find me?
47157Where now,shouts impious Jocasta,"are your oracles-- that you should slay your father?
47157Who told you all this?
47157Who were with him?
47157Why?
47157..."What is the advantage of noble birth, if favor follow not the speech and counsel of a man?"
47157A wide application may thus be given to Augustine''s passionate outcry:"Quo vobis adhuc et adhuc ambulare vias difficiles et laboriosas?
47157And for whom has he done this?
47157And what has he received as guerdon?
47157But is all this of any value except as a machine for arranging and formulating thoughts and opinions?
47157But is this all?
47157But who sought to preserve the antiquated hymns to Phoebus and to Zeus, when the rites of Isis and Serapis and the Phrygian mother were in vogue?
47157Can we doubt that Æschylus availed himself of this so solemn and sublime a cadence?
47157Cassandra only answers:"Are not these children wailing for their death enough?
47157Does Max Müller mean that language suffered, or that the thinking subject suffered through the action of the bane?
47157For what do men disquiet themselves in warfare to the death, and tossing on sea- waves?
47157From what glory, from what immeasurable bliss, have I now sunk to roam with mortals on this earth?"
47157Had ever any other man so splendid a heritage of song allotted to him?
47157Had the Greek race perceptions infinitely finer than ours?
47157Had there been any one to ask the myth- maker: Who told you this strange tale?
47157He asks at once:"Where was the spot?"
47157He stood above the hero''s head, and spake to him:"Sleepest thou, and me hast thou forgotten, Achilles?
47157Hear ye not whereby, Loving like ghouls these banquets, ye''re become To gods abominable?
47157Her second- sight pierces the palace- walls, and she shrieks:"Mad woman, are you decking your husband for the bath?
47157Here, again, all turns upon the question, What sort of universals?
47157Hesiod poses the eternal problems: What is the origin and destiny of mankind?
47157How came the gods to be our tyrants?
47157How can he pipe or sing, when from the market- place he sees his own land made the prey of revellers?
47157How could a poet have bewailed his loves or losses in the stately structure of the Pindaric ode?
47157How darest thou descend to Hades, where dwell the thoughtless dead, the phantoms of men whose life is done?
47157How did evil and pain and disease begin?
47157How did it come into existence?
47157How then could being have a future or a past?
47157How, thinkest thou, can man of the Achaians with glad heart follow at thy word to take the field or fight the foe?
47157In other words, is this, which the current hand- books tell us about Herakles, the pith of the matter as it appeared to the Greeks?
47157Is Agamemnon really to be slain?
47157Is everything the dawn?
47157Is it a net of hell?
47157Is it so?
47157Is not the shield of Achilles, like Dante''s pavement of the purgatorial staircase, a forecast of the future?
47157Is not their flesh, tasted by their father at their uncle''s board, my witness?"
47157Need we ask ourselves again the question whether he existed, or whether he sprang into the full possession of consummate art without a predecessor?
47157Now, however, we ask, In what true sense was Prometheus criminal?
47157One of these concerned Helen: Did she really go to Troy?
47157Say, is it to behold the violence of Agamemnon, Atreus''s son?
47157See you not how foolish it is to trust to Phoebus and to auguries of birds?
47157See you those children seated on the house- roof?
47157Shall I, to please Agamemnon, hasten on my own end?
47157Then Cassandra breaks forth afresh, this time vaticinating imminent calamity:"What is she plotting, what doom unbearable?
47157Then, too, what necessity could have forced it to the birth at an earlier or later moment?
47157This rouses the Chorus, and they ask:"What cry of wailing hast thou shrieked about Apollo?
47157Those very woes, perhaps, may have added pathos to her charm; for had not she too suffered in the strife of men?
47157Was he not, therefore, justified in saying that he had won again his rights divine, and transformed himself into a god on earth?
47157Was it possible that anything so exquisite should have endured rough ravishment and borne the travail of the siege of Troy?
47157We hear the voice that called--# ô houtos houtos Oidipous ti mellomen chôrein?
47157What can be left unsaid of the many thoughts that ought to be expressed?
47157What can be said adequate to such a theme?
47157What happens to literature in this period of metamorphosis, expansion, and anarchy?
47157What he saw with his fancy, could the heroic artisans have fashioned with their tools?
47157What is justice?
47157What is the meaning of these changes?
47157What is the use of all this muscular development?
47157What origin shall we seek of it?
47157What shall we have?
47157What was mythology before Homer?
47157What, then, was this central subject, which gives the unity of a true work of art to the_ Iliad_?
47157What?
47157When Theodora was exhibiting her naked charms in the arena, who could commend the study of Anacreon in the school- room?
47157Where and how did it grow?
47157Who can endure to look upon these things?"
47157Who does not know his lines upon the valley of Eurotas?
47157Whose daughter was Helen?
47157Why linger they in those hypæthral temple- chambers, resonant with song and gladdened by the feet of youths and maidens bearing bays?
47157Why should we toil painfully upon the upward path of virtue?
47157Why wear I, then, these gauds to laugh me down-- This rod, these necklace- wreaths oracular?
47157Why, then, is the style called Dorian?
47157Will ye not put an end to this accursed slaughter?
47157Will ye not see that ye consume each other in blind ignorance of soul?"
47157Yet how could he forget the grief of his bereavement, the taunts of Achilles and Thersites, and the ten years''toil at Troy endured for her?
47157Yet who has read the_ Iliad_ without carrying away a distinct conception of this, the most lovable among the women of Homer?
47157is everything the sun?
47157is there, then, among the dead soul and the shade of life, but thought is theirs no more at all?
47157or must we hence away?
47157pôs gar authis an palin strateum''agoimi tauton eisapax tresas?# when she persists, he repeats# mê peith''ha mê dei#.
47157what god, what hero, what man shall we make famous?"
47157what is your authority for imposing it upon us?
47157why prophesy my death?
1174And how many dwelling- houses have you? 1174 Are the men of Piraeus,"they asked,"prepared to surrender Piraeus and Munychia in the same way?
1174As long as their own bodies were safe and sound, why need they take to heart the loss of a few wooden hulls? 1174 Do you not see,"he urged,"that your success followed close on the heels of necessity?
1174I ask then is the man who tenders such advice in the full light of day justly to be regarded as a traitor, and not as a benefactor? 1174 Men of Lacedaemon and of the allied states,"he said,"are you aware of a silent but portentous growth within the bosom of Hellas?
1174Such being our unbiased wishes,he continued,"for what earthly reason should( the Hellenes or) the king go to war with us?
1174Was he to continue his advance?
1174Were these magistrates, or merely popular leaders?
1174While, then, I am on my way thither,rejoined Agesilaus,"will you support my army with provisions?"
1174Why yield obedience to these Thirty?
1174( 14) Or,"are you aware of a new power growing up in Hellas?"
1174( 14) What is the date of this incident?
1174( 5) Accordingly the ephors questioned their informant:"How say you the occurrence is to take place?"
1174( 5) Is it not self- evident that your safety altogether depends upon the sea?
1174( 7) Then, as the inquiry went on, the question came:"And where did they propose to find arms?"
1174( 8) In what part of Hellas, tell me, sir, do Hellenes keep a truce with traitors, double- dyed deserters, and tyrants?
1174( 8) Or,"what consistency is there between these precepts of yours and political independence?"
1174369?
1174400(?).
1174400- 399(?).
1174401(?).
1174416?
1174Accordingly he sent to Pharnabazus and put it to him point- blank: Which will you have, peace or war?
1174Again he replied-- How could he trust to their words when they had lied to him already?
1174Agesilaus:"Have you observed how beautiful his son is?"
1174And as to men, which will be the better able to man vessels, think you-- Athens, or ourselves with our stalwart and numerous Penestae?
1174And as to their confident spirit, who shall attempt to describe it?
1174And being asked,"What act( would satisfy him)?"
1174And what shall we say of the Corinthians?
1174And when the latter demurred to that solution, asking"What sort of trial that would be where the offenders were also the judges?"
1174But after dinner, when Cyrus drank to his health, asking him"What he could do to gratify him most?"
1174But tell me, Cinadon,''I said to him,''why have you bidden me count them?''
1174But the Eleians?
1174But they seemed to tarry a long time, and Agesilaus asked:"What say you, King Otys-- shall we summon him hither ourselves?
1174But what of the man who pleases neither?
1174Can it be our duty at all to spare him?
1174Did you not say just now, Sir, that you came to make an alliance on terms of absolute equality,''share and share alike''?
1174Do you imagine that you may be robbed of the power of life and death over whom you please, should you condescend to a legal trial?
1174Do you know the poem?"
1174Do you not agree?
1174Do you not think that the ephors themselves, and the whole commonwealth besides, would hold this renegade worthy of condign punishment?
1174For what does the alternative mean?
1174For what were their services to you?
1174Had he not been defeated in Lacedaemon, with a large body of heavy infantry, by a handful of men?
1174Had we been forced to meet them vanguard to vanguard, on an equal footing, who could have been surprised?
1174Have I not avenged you of your enemy?"
1174He said,"Men of Athens, do you not see how you are being deluded?
1174He sat down, and then Procles of Phlius got up and spoke as follows:"What would happen, men of Athens, if the Lacedaemonians were well out of the way?
1174How many friends have they left to them to- day?
1174How shall I, who dealt justice upon him, justly suffer death at your hands?
1174How shall you longer be held blameless before that fatherland which honours you and in which you fare so well?''
1174If danger were ever again to visit Hellas from the barbarian world outside, in whom would you place your confidence if not in the Lacedaemonians?
1174If so, what fairer test of courage will you propose than the arbitrament of war-- the war just ended?
1174If, then, you have no monopoly of justice, can it be on the score of courage that you are warranted to hold your heads so high?
1174In danger, do I say, of losing their lives?
1174Is it not plain that these preparations are for an expedition which will do us some mischief?"
1174Is it not then reasonable that out of agreement should spring concord rather than discord?
1174Is it that you are more just than ourselves?
1174Is it their wide empire of which you are afraid?
1174It is this: Satyrus, bade him"Be silent, or he would rue the day;"to which he made answer,"And if I be silent, shall I not rue it?"
1174Jason, if all you say be true, why do you hesitate?
1174Leotychides:"How so, seeing that I am not dead?"
1174Nor was Thebes an exception; for was not the governor a brother of Agesilaus?
1174Of Pellene( or Pellana) in Laconia, not Pellene in Achaia?
1174Or is it conceivable that he prefers spending money in making others great to finding his favourite projects realised without expense?
1174Or is it on these Laconian friends of yours that you pride yourselves?
1174Or,"upon the strand or coast road or coast land of Achaia"( aliter{ ten aigialon}(?)
1174Otys asked:"Is Spithridates of one mind with you in this proposal?"
1174Otys:"Why not ask if your project pleases Spithridates too?"
1174Ought we not rather, when we know the doublings of his nature, to guard against them, lest we enable him presently to practise on ourselves?
1174Pharnabazus replied:"Shall I tell you plainly what I will do?"
1174Presently the question rose, How they were to get money to pay their guards?
1174Suppose, then, we were to shake hands, from what quarter can we reasonably anticipate danger and trouble?
1174That which I have pictured as desirable, or that which my colleagues yonder are producing?
1174The Thebans, it was certain, would soon be with them; for had they not borrowed ten talents( 20) from Elis in order to be able to send aid?
1174The ephors asked:"How many do you reckon are in the secret of this matter?"
1174The two armies were now close together, when one of the older men lifted up his voice and cried:"Why need we fight, sirs?
1174Then Meidias asked,"And where am I to live, Dercylidas?"
1174Then, again, what was the proper depth of line to be given to the different army corps?
1174Trubner, 1884)?
1174Was Gytheum taken?
1174Was ever bride led home by such an escort of cavalry and light- armed troops and heavy infantry, as shall escort your wife home to your palace?"
1174Was it not the people itself, the democracy, who voted the constitution of the Four Hundred?
1174Was it not, pray, the great king who demanded that all the states in Hellas should be independent?
1174Was not my door open in old days to every comer?
1174Was there not timber enough and to spare in the king''s territory?"
1174Was this portion of the"Hellenica"written before the expedition of Cyrus?
1174Well, then, freedom given and wealth added-- what more would you desire to fill the cup of happiness to overflowing?"
1174Well, then, how does the matter stand?
1174Were ever nuptials celebrated on so grand a scale before?
1174What are you afraid of, that you press forward with such hot haste?
1174What in heaven''s name are we to call him?
1174What then, when he came furnished with vile moneys, to corrupt you therewith, to bribe you to make him once more lord and master of the state?
1174What, I ask you, of a man who so openly studied the art of self- seeking, deaf alike to the pleas of honour and to the claims of friendship?
1174When he had reached that city the first move was made by Tissaphernes, who sent asking,"With what purpose he was come thither?"
1174When the inventory of the paternal property was completed, he proceeded:"Tell me, Meidias, to whom did Mania belong?"
1174When they were seated Dercylidas put certain questions:"Tell me, Meidias, did your father leave you heir to his estates?"
1174Who else but they have now brought it about that we should be fined for appearing at Lacedaemon?
1174Why not rather make truce and part friends?"
1174Will some one of you escort me to the place where the property of Mania and Pharnabazus lies?"
1174With which condition of affairs here in Athens do you think will Thrasybulus and Anytus and the other exiles be the better pleased?
1174Would not leniency towards such a creature be misplaced?
1174and for what purpose but to deter any one else for the future from venturing to expose the proceedings at Phlius?"
1174and what have we Athenians, who are in full agreement with the king, both in word and deed, to fear from him?
1174how much pasturage?"
1174how, again, was he to prevent Pharnabazus from overriding the Hellenic states in pure contempt with his cavalry?
1174or is it not more likely a Persian or native word, Karanos?
1174or is{ koiranos} the connecting link?
1174or why should he expend his money?
1174or why, when we tell them that we have no need of them at present, do they insist on preparing for a foreign campaign?
1174the Achaeans?
1174the Arcadians?
1174they asked,"Why assign to them the privilege of destroying the State?"
1174what evil have we wrought you at any time?
1174what is it really that has brought us here?
1174what landed estates?
1174why do you not march at once against Pharsalia?"
1174why would you slay us?
1174you-- Critias?
1174{ karenon})= chief?
7491But if he had?
7491Does one say No or Yes? 7491 Great thanks indeed did Thais render to me?"
7491What are these?
7491As for him, indeed who can deny that the issue has been to his pre- eminent glory?
7491But do you see your father Paulus coming to you?"
7491But what is more disgraceful than to be made game of?
7491Did Africanus need me?
7491Do you not see into the midst of what temples you have come?
7491For how can one be a friend to him to whom he thinks that he may possibly become an enemy?
7491For what house is so stable, what state so firm, that it can not be utterly overturned by hatred and strife?
7491For what reputation from the speech of men, or what fame worth seeking, can you obtain?
7491For where will you find him who prefers a friend''s promotion to his own?
7491How could you have full enjoyment of prosperity, unless with one whose pleasure in it was equal to your own?
7491I then asked him,"Even if he had wanted you to set fire to the Capitol, would you have done it?"
7491In the first, place, as Ennius says;--"How can life be worth living, if devoid of the calm trust reposed by friend in friend?
7491Indeed, to what purpose is it to say that among such men if one had asked anything wrong, he would not have obtained it?
7491On the other hand, who is there that can fail to hate Tarquinius Superbus, Spurius Cassius, Spurius Maelius?
7491Then, too, as regards the very persons who tell of your renown, how long will they speak of it?
7491This is, indeed, the employing of force; for what matters the way in which you compel me?
7491To what purpose am I saying this?
7491What benefit, then, could he have derived from a few more years?
7491What is the ease of which they speak?
7491What like this had the Roman people ever heard or seen before?
7491What may we suppose that they would have done, had the same thing occurred in real life?
7491What more shall I say?
7491What sweeter joy than in the kindred soul?
7491What?
7491When I had recovered from my amazement at these things I asked,"What is this sound so strong and so sweet that fills my ears?"
7491While I was gazing more intently on the earth, Africanus said:"How long, I pray you, will your mind be fastened on the ground?
7491Who had greater influence than he had?
7491Who in Greece was more renowned than Themistocles?
7491Who, in what other lands may lie in the extreme east or west, or under northern or southern skies, will ever hear your name?
7491Whose converse differs not from self- communion?"
7491have aided them in the endeavor to usurp regal power?
7491of his integrity in his relations with all men?
7491such a life, and whom solitude would not render incapable of enjoying any kind of pleasure?
35171''Fore God, the wisdoms and the greatnesses Of seeming, are they hollow all, as things Of naught?
35171''Tis we, thy children; shall no man aid us?
35171( How?
35171A deadly wrong they did me, yea within Mine holy place: thou knowest?
35171Ah me, Phthia or Thebes, or sea- worn Thessaly?
35171Ah, husband still, how shall thy hand be bent To slay me?
35171Ah, is it thou?
35171Ah, what bringeth he Of news or judgment?
35171Ah, woe is me; hath Ajax come again?
35171Am I still alone?
35171And Hector''s woe, What is it?
35171And I, whose slave am I, The shaken head, the arm that creepeth by, Staff- crutchèd, like to fall?
35171And comest thou now Forth, and hast decked thy bosom and thy brow, And breathest with thy lord the same blue air, Thou evil heart?
35171And hast thou turned from the Altar of frankincense, And given to the Greek thy temple of Ilion?
35171And her own Prize that God promisèd Out of the golden clouds, her virgin crown?
35171And is it granted that I speak, or no, In answer to them ere I die, to show I die most wronged and innocent?
35171And is this not woe?)
35171And my sons?
35171And this their King so wise, who ruleth all, What wrought he?
35171And this unhappy one-- would any eyes Gaze now on Hecuba?
35171And thou, Polyxena, Where art thou?
35171And thou, what tears can tell thy doom?
35171And will ye leave her downstricken, A woman, and so old?
35171And yet, what help?
35171And, to say nothing of Zeus, how can the Goddess of Morning rise and shine upon us uncaring?
35171Argos, belike, or Phthia shall it be, Or some lone island of the tossing sea, Far, far from Troy?
35171But what minion of the Greek Is this that cometh, with new words to speak?
35171Canst thou see help, or refuge anywhere?
35171Dear God, what would they?
35171Do I not know her?
35171Doth he not go With me, to the same master?
35171For Helen''s sister''s pride?
35171For this land''s sake Thou comest, not for Hellas?
35171For what woe lacketh here?
35171Had ye so little pride?
35171Hath that old hate and deep Failed, where she lieth in her ashen sleep?
35171Heard ye?
35171Here on the shore Wouldst hold them or amid mine own salt foam?
35171How have they cast me, and to whom A bondmaid?
35171How say''st thou?
35171How shall it be?
35171How should a poet carve the funeral stone To tell thy story true?
35171How, for his Spartan bride A tirewoman?
35171How?
35171How?
35171How?
35171How?
35171I ask not thee; I ask my own sad thought, What was there in my heart, that I forgot My home and land and all I loved, to fly With a strange man?
35171In the other( Stesichorus,_ Sack of Ilion_(?))
35171Is God''s word As naught, to me in silence ministered, That in this place she dies?
35171Is it all in vain that our Trojan princes have been loved by the Gods?
35171Is it the Isle Immortal, Salamis, waits for me?
35171Is it the Rock that broods Over the sundered floods Of Corinth, the ancient portal Of Pelops''sovranty?''
35171Is it the flare Of torches?
35171Is the fall thereof Too deep for all that now is over me Of anguish, and hath been, and yet shall be?
35171Is''t not rare fortune that the King hath smiled On such a maid?
35171Know''st thou my bitter stress?

35171Mother of him of old, whose mighty spear Smote Greeks like chaff, see''st thou what things are here?
35171My daughter?
35171Nay, Hadst thou no surer rope, no sudden way Of the sword, that any woman honest- souled Had sought long since, loving her lord of old?
35171Nay, why, my little one?
35171Nay: Why call I on the Gods?
35171Nay: Why should Odysseus''labours vex my breath?
35171O Fire, Fire, where men make marriages Surely thou hast thy lot; but what are these Thou bringest flashing?
35171O Helen, Helen, thou ill tree That Tyndareus planted, who shall deem of thee As child of Zeus?
35171O ye Argives, was your spear Keen, and your hearts so low and cold, to fear This babe?
35171Oh, How can I tell her of it?
35171Or is it tidings heard From some far Spirit?
35171Or what child meanest thou?
35171Out of the tent of the Greek king I steal, my Queen, with trembling breath: What means thy call?

35171Say then what lot hath any?
35171See''st thou what end is come?
35171Seëst thou, seëst thou?
35171Shall I thrust aside Hector''s belovèd face, and open wide My heart to this new lord?
35171Shall the ship go heavier for her sin?
35171She liveth still?
35171Speak first; wilt thou be one In heart with me and hand till all be done?
35171Speak, Friend?
35171The flame of the cakes of corn, is it gone from hence, The myrrh on the air and the wreathèd towers gone?
35171The sainted of Apollo?
35171Thou hast some counsel of the Gods, or word Spoken of Zeus?
35171Thou of the Ages, O wherefore fleëst thou, Lord of the Phrygian, Father that made us?
35171Thou pitiest her?
35171Thy land is fallen and thy lord, and thou A prisoner and alone, one woman; how Canst battle against us?
35171To Odysseus''gate My mother goeth, say''st thou?
35171To watch a tomb?

35171Weepest thou, Mother mine own?
35171Weepest thou?
35171What fall yet lacketh, ere we touch The last dead deep of misery?
35171What fashion of the laws of Greece?
35171What hope have I To hold me?
35171What is it?
35171What is there that I fear to say?
35171What is this?
35171What knoweth she of evils like to these, That dead Polyxena, thou weepest for?
35171What lingereth still O wounded City, of unknown ill, Ere yet thou diest?
35171What man now hath her, or what doom?
35171What meanest thou?
35171What means that sudden light?
35171What of Andromache, Wife of mine iron- hearted Hector, where Journeyeth she?
35171What of joy Falls, or can fall on any child of Troy?
35171What of that other child Ye reft from me but now?
35171What seekest thou?
35171What sought ye then that ye came?
35171What was the"device"?
35171What woman''s lips can so forswear her dead, And give strange kisses in another''s bed?
35171When wast thou taken?
35171Wherefore should great Hera''s eyes So hunger to be fair?
35171Wherefore?
35171Whither moves thy cry, Thy bitter cry?
35171Whither shall I tread?
35171Who am I that I sit Here at a Greek king''s door, Yea, in the dust of it?
35171Who be these on the crested rock?
35171Who found thee so?
35171Why call on things so weak For aid?
35171Why didst thou cheat me so?
35171Why raise me any more?
35171Why should I speak the shame of them, before They come?
35171Why will ye slay this innocent, that seeks No wrong?
35171Will they leave him here to build again The wreck?
35171Yea, and thou, And these that lie around, do they not know?
35171Yet I would ask thee, what decree is gone Forth for my life or death?
35171[_ Turning upon the Herald._ Where lies the galley?
35171_ Some Women._ Deep in the heart of me I feel thine hand, Mother: and is it he Dead here, our prince to be, And lord of the land?
35171and is it come, the end of all, The very crest and summit of my days?
35171and wert thou nothingness?
35171p. 35"Why call on things so weak?"
35171who is there That prayeth heaven, and in so strange a prayer?
30201Add farther, to what deity did the Romans pay a more ceremonial respect than to Flora, that bawd of obscenity?
30201Again, are you in love with any handsome lady?
30201And if so, how am I concerned to make any farther excuse?
30201And indeed to what purpose would it be singly to recount the commonalty and rabble of mankind, who beyond all question are entirely on my side?
30201And now since I have made good my title to valour and industry, what if I challenge an equal share of wisdom?
30201And now( dear friend) how shall we to thy brow Pay all those laurels which we justly owe?
30201And what are such?
30201And what else can we imagine all this to be than downright madness?
30201And what is the argument of all Homer''s Iliads, but only, as Horace observes:-- They kings and subjects dotages contain?
30201And what made this great man poison himself to prevent the malice of his accusers?
30201And what?
30201And whence reaps it this happiness?
30201And would he not deserve to be hissed and thrown stones at till the pragmatical fool could learn better manners?
30201And yet what is more faithful to his master?
30201And yet what is more sporting and inoffensive?
30201As namely, can there be any one sort of men that enjoy themselves better than those which we call idiots, changelings, fools and naturals?
30201But prithee what city would choose such a magistrate?
30201But what if I make it appear that I also am the main spring and original of this endearment?
30201But what matter is it if these things are resented by the vulgar?
30201But why should I confine my discourse to the narrow subject of mankind only?
30201Farther, what scoffs and jeers did not the old comedians throw upon him?
30201Farther, why should I desire a temple, since the whole world is but one ample continued choir, entirely dedicated to my use and service?
30201For farther, what city would ever submit to the rigorous laws of Plato, to the severe injunctions of Aristotle?
30201For which of the enemies would not veil their turbans at so solemn an appearance?
30201For who would not hate and avoid such a person as should be deaf to all the dictates of common sense?
30201How much of their pleasure would be abated if they were but endowed with one dram of wisdom?
30201How positive also is Tully''s commendation that all places are filled with fools?
30201How would these heroes crouch, and shrink into nothing, at the sight of drawn swords, that are thus quashed and stunned at the delivery of bare words?
30201Is it likely any one should agree with a friend that is first fallen out with his own judgment?
30201Now what is the meaning of the phrase[_ I did it ignorantly_] but only this?
30201Or is it probable he should be any way pleasing to another, who is a perpetual plague and trouble to himself?
30201Or what occasion for rhetoric, where no difference arose to require any laborious decision?
30201Or what vigour in youth, if it be harassed with a pettish, dogged, waspish, ill humour?
30201They are prejudiced against it upon this account, because they suppose it justles out all truth and sincerity?
30201This you will say is much, but you shall yet hear what is more; tell me then, can any one love another that first hates himself?
30201Was it any sinewy starched oration?
30201Well, but what is the meaning( will some say) of all this?
30201What architect could ever form so curious a structure as they give a model of in their inimitable combs?
30201What heights and falls in their voice?
30201What is more fawning than a spaniel?
30201What is more fond and loving than a tame squirrel?
30201What kingdom can be governed with better discipline than they exactly observe in their respective hives?
30201What made him the instrument of his own death, but only his excessiveness of wisdom?
30201What need of logic, when they were too wise to enter into any dispute?
30201What shall I say of such as cry up and maintain the cheat of pardons and indulgences?
30201What signifies my inner purple, but only an ardent love and zeal to God?
30201What signifies[_ I obtained mercy_] but only that I should not otherwise have obtained it had not folly and ignorance been my vindication?
30201What was it that quieted and appeased the Roman people, when they brake out into a riot for the redress of grievances?
30201Whence indeed, but from me only, by whose procurement it is furnished with little of wisdom, and so with the less of disquiet?
30201Which of the fiercest Janizaries would not throw away his scimitar, and all the half- moons be eclipsed by the interposition of so glorious an army?
30201Who knows not that the first scene of infancy is far the most pleasant and delightsome?
30201Why are you so backward in making an answer?
30201Why is Cupid feigned as a boy, but only because he is an under- witted whipster, that neither acts nor thinks any thing with discretion?
30201Why, can any one be said properly to live to whom pleasure is denied?
30201Wisdom, did I say?
30201[ Illustration: 060][ Illustration: 063][ Illustration: 064] For instance, in the first place, what can be more dear and precious than life itself?
30201[ Illustration: 336] Farther, does any one appear a candidate for any ecclesiastical dignity?
30201and how ready to become serviceable upon all occasions?
30201and were it so possible that the Godhead had appeared in any shape of an inanimate substance, how he should then have preached his gospel?
30201for who can set me forth better than myself?
30201how mimical are their gestures?
30201or how have been nailed to the cross?
30201or the more unpracticable tenets of Socrates?
30201or what servant would be retained by such a master?
30201or what woman would be content with such a do- little husband?
30201or who can pretend to be so well acquainted with my condition?
30201that feeds upon himself and his own thoughts, that monopolises health, wealth, power, dignity, and all to himself?
30201that loves no man, nor is beloved of any?
30201that should have no more power of love or pity than a block or stone, that remains heedless of all dangers?
30201that thinks he can never mistake, but can foresee all contingencies at the greatest distance, and make provision for the worst presages?
30201the difference betwixt the several attributes of Christ in heaven, on the cross, and in the consecrated bread?

30201what time is required for the transubstantiating the bread into flesh?
30201whether Christ, as a son, bears a double specifically distinct relation to God the Father, and his virgin mother?
30201whether God, who took our nature upon him in the form of a man, could as well have become a woman, a devil, a beast, a herb, or a stone?
30201whether after the resurrection we shall carnally eat and drink as we do in this life?
30201whether in Christ''s corporal presence in the sacramental wafer, his humanity be not abstracted from his Godhead?
30201whether this proposition is possible to be true, the first person of the Trinity hated the second?
30201who would invite such a guest?
2811< a href=#linknote-89"name="linknoteref-89"id="linknoteref-89">[89] What is my object in telling you these things?
2811And pray,I asked him, when the youth had left us,"did you never commit a fault yourself which deserved your father''s correction?
2811And why, then,you will be ready to ask,"not have them yourself?"
2811But what is the object of all this?
2811How can that be?
2811I ask you,he repeated,"what is your opinion of Modestus?"
2811Let us know,exclaims one,"who is the subject of this informal motion?"
2811Not excepting even your freedmen?
2811Pray then,he asked,"what is your method upon such occasions?"
2811Pray, then, is it Tacitus or Pliny I am talking with?
2811Pray,says he,"what is your opinion of Modestus?"
2811What need is there,said I,"of my taking a bath at all?"
2811Who is it,( asked another)"that is thus accused, without acquainting the house with his name, and his crime?"
2811-- Tell me then whether you think these votes should have been taken separately?
2811--What follows is conceived in a yet higher strain of metaphor:"Will you not expel this man as the common calamity of Greece?
2811Am I not then obliged to confirm what my freedman has thus done in pursuance of my inclinations?
2811And have we not each of us our particular follies in which we fondly indulge ourselves?
2811And what else?
2811Are not all mankind subject to indiscretions?
2811At last he enquired who it was that was speaking?
2811Besides, how shall you know that what an advocate has farther to offer will be superfluous, until you have heard him?
2811Besides, recollect what credit he has, and with what powerful friendships he is supported?"
2811Blaesus dies, and, as if he had overheard every word that Regulus had said, has not left him one farthing.--And now have you had enough?
2811But are we wiser than our ancestors?
2811But does Aeschines himself avoid those errors which he reproves in Demosthenes?
2811But how does that affect the parties who vote?
2811But pray was there never a praetor before this man?
2811But still, who are these, let me ask, that are better acquainted with my friends than I am myself?
2811But why do I dwell any longer upon the virtues of a man whose conversation I am so unfortunate as not to have time sufficiently to enjoy?
2811But why do I mention myself, who am diverted from these pursuits by numberless affairs both public and private?
2811But, after all, why this air of threatening?
2811By way of requiting their kindnesses( for what generous mind can bear to be excelled in acts of friendship?)
2811CVIII-- TO FUSCUS You want to know how I portion out my day, in my summer villa at Tuscum?
2811Casting his eyes round the room,"Why,"he exclaimed,"do you suppose I endure life so long under these cruel agonies?
2811Could he place the dignity of Cato in a stronger light than by representing him thus venerable even in his cups?
2811Did I ever interfere in the affair of Crassus[4] or Camerinus?
2811Did she supply him likewise with materials for the purpose?
2811Did you never?
2811Do you consider the risks you expose yourself to?
2811Does it not seem to you but yesterday that Nero was alive?
2811For what can be better for society than such government, what can be more precious than freedom?
2811For what have death and banishment in common with one another?
2811For who is there so unprejudiced as not to prefer the attractive and sonorous to the sombre and unornamented in style?
2811For, on one side, what obstacles would not the business of a court throw in his way?
2811Have you not observed what acclamations our rope- dancers excite at the instant of imminent danger?
2811He fell with such fury upon the character of Herennius Senecio that Metius Carus said to him, one day,"What business have you with my dead?
2811How ignominious then must his conduct be who turns good government into anarchy, and liberty into slavery?
2811How more acceptable than a far larger one?
2811How thoroughly conversant is he in every branch of history or antiquity?
2811I am myself employed in the same sort of work; and since I have you, who shall deny I have reason on my side?
2811I not only acknowledge the charge, but glory in it; for can there be a nobler error than an overflowing benevolence?
2811If that should unhappily result, where shall I find one who will read my works so well, or appreciate them so thoroughly as he?
2811In a word,( for why should I conceal from my friend either my deliberate opinion or my prejudice?)
2811Is it reasonable, then, that one should be thrown into the scale merely to weigh down another?
2811Is it to increase my regret and vexation that I can not enjoy it?
2811Is there anything in nature so short and limited as human life, even at its longest?
2811LXI-- To PRISCUS You know Attilius Crescens, and you love him; who is there, indeed, of any rank or worth, that does not?
2811LXXX VIII-- To ROMANUS HAVE you ever seen the source of the river Clitumnus?
2811My subject, indeed, seemed naturally to lend itself to this( may I venture to call it?)
2811Nay, are you not sometimes even now guilty of errors which your son, were he in your place, might with equal gravity reprove?
2811Now the following story, which I am going to tell you just as I heard it, is it not more terrible than the former, while quite as wonderful?
2811Or could it have been looked upon as one consistent motion when it united two such different decisions?
2811Or, may not this small collection of water be successively contracted and enlarged upon the same principle as the ebb and flow of the sea?
2811Otherwise, what good do friends do you who assemble merely for their own amusement?
2811Rufinus, calling his friend''s attention to me, said to him,"You see this man?"
2811Scarcely had he left me when a second came up:"Whatever,"said he,"are you attempting?
2811Shall I consider this as an honour done to myself or to literature?
2811Since you can not preserve his life, why do you grudge him the happy release of death?"
2811Still I can not forbear to lament him, as if he had been in the prime and vigour of his days; and I lament him( shall I own my weakness?)
2811The person who told the story was a man of unsuspected veracity:--but what has a poet to do with truth?
2811Though indeed what can a man have conferred on him more valuable than the honour of never- fading praise?
2811Though why should I wonder at this?
2811Upon his acknowledging that he did,"Why then,"said he,"did you make him go back again?
2811Upon this Nigrinus asked me,"To whom are these deputies sent?"
2811Was her mother privy to this transaction?
2811What else?
2811What?
2811When you rise up to plead, are you not at that juncture, above all others, most self- distrustful?
2811Where is the sick man who is either solicited by avarice or inflamed with lust?
2811Who is he then who sets up in this way for a public reformer?
2811Whose tones will my ears drink in as they do his?
2811Why do I say all this?
2811Why ever will you ruin yourself?
2811Why will you presume too much on the present situation of public affairs, when it is so uncertain what turn they may hereafter take?
2811Would you make me a suitable return for this letter?
2811XCI-- To MACRINUS Is the weather with you as rude and boisterous as it is with us?
2811Yet grant there are any such, why will they deny me the satisfaction of so pleasing a mistake?
2811Yet what was the subject which raised this uncommon attention?
2811You ask me why I conjecture this?
2811You think I am joking?
2811You will ask,"How that can possibly be in the midst of Rome?"
2811You will be inclined perhaps to enquire whether I can easily raise the purchase- money?
2811You will, ask, perhaps,"Why do you apply for information concerning a point on which you ought to be well instructed?"
2811and do you not wish, I will not say some particular parts only, but that the whole arrangement of your intended speech were altered?
2811and on the other, what is it that such intense application might not effect?
2811are we more equitable than the laws which grant so many hours and days of adjournments to a case?
2811especially if the concourse should be large in which you are to speak?
2811may not I, then, be allowed to congratulate myself upon the celebrity my name has acquired?
2811or are you for the third, according to rhetorical canon?
2811or lyric poetry, as it is not a reader, but a chorus of voices and instruments that it requires?
2811or why tragedy, as it is composed for action and the stage, not for being read to a private audience?
2811this only stirs in me a keener longing for you; for how sweet must her conversation be whose letters have so many charms?
2811were our forefathers slow of apprehension, and dull beyond measure?
2811what would you have said, could you have heard the wild beast himself?"
2811when any particular opinion is received, do not all the rest fall of course?
6762And here it seems very proper to consider this question, When shall we say that a city is the same, and when shall we say that it is different?
6762And why?
6762Besides, of what use are the husbandmen to this community?
6762Besides, why should such a form of government be changed into the Lacedaemonian?
6762But do we never find those virtues united which constitute a good man and excellent citizen?
6762But if any person prefers a kingly government in a state, what is to be done with the king''s children?
6762But if this law appoints an aristocracy, or a democracy, how will it help us in our present doubts?
6762But since he admits, that all their property may be increased fivefold, why should he not allow the same increase to the country?
6762But what avails it to point out what is the height of injustice if this is not?
6762For what is the difference, if the power is in the hands of the women, or in the hands of those whom they themselves govern?
6762For what?
6762I mean, whether in a democracy, an oligarchy, an aristocracy, and a monarchy, the same persons shall have the same power?
6762If the virtuous should be very few in number, how then shall we act?
6762In different states shall the magistrates be different or the same?
6762Is it right then that the rich, the few, should have the supreme power?
6762Is it to instruct, to amuse, or to employ the vacant hours of those who live at rest?
6762Is the family also to reign?
6762Is this state then established according to perfect democratical justice, or rather that which is guided by numbers only?
6762Now the first thing which presents itself to our consideration is this, whether it is best to be governed by a good man, or by good laws?
6762Or shall the magistrates differ as the communities differ?
6762Rhetorica: A summary by T. Hobbes, 1655(?
6762Shall it be with the majority, or the wealthy, with a number of proper persons, or one better than the rest, or with a tyrant?
6762The first question is, whether music is or is not to make a part of education?
6762Thus says the Helen of Theodectes:"Who dares reproach me with the name of slave?
6762What remedy then shall we find for these three disorders?
6762Which then shall we prefer?
6762and of those three things which have been assigned as its proper employment, which is the right?
6762and upon what principles would they do it, unless they should establish the wise practice of the Cretans?
6762as, for instance, in decency of manners, shall it be one cause when it relates to a man, another when it relates to a woman?
6762for they are neither[ 1278a] sojourners nor foreigners?
6762or if he is to be governed, how can he be governed well?
6762or may not all three be properly allotted to it?
6762or shall it vary according to the different formation of the government?
6762or shall we not establish our equality in this manner?
6762or shall we say, that it is of any service in the conduct of life, and an assistant to prudence?
6762or should they be so many as almost entirely to compose the state?
6762shall the poor have it because they are the majority?
6762shall we prefer the virtuous on account of their abilities, if they are capable of governing the city?
6762the custom which is already established, or the laws which are proposed in that treatise?
6762why should any others have a right to elect the magistrates?
2571( 4) And wo n''t we laugh? 2571 ( 1) What is he going to tell us? 2571 ( 1) f(1) Before sacrificing, the officiating person asked,Who is here?"
2571( TO PEACE) What now?
2571A BREASTPLATE- MAKER Good gods, what am I going to do with this fine ten- minae breastplate, which is so splendidly made?
2571A SICKLE- MAKER Trygaeus, where is Trygaeus?
2571A TRUMPET- MAKER What is to be done with this trumpet, for which I gave sixty drachmae the other day?
2571A fatted bull?
2571Again you come back without it?
2571Are there any good men?
2571BREASTPLATE- MAKER But how can you wipe, idiot?
2571BREASTPLATE- MAKER So you would pay ten minae(1) for a night- stool?
2571But I bethink me, shall I give her something to eat?
2571But is it my death you seek then, my death?
2571But what is my master doing?
2571But where was she then, I wonder, all the long time she spent away from us?
2571CHORUS But not to Ares?
2571CHORUS Nor doubtless to Enyalius?
2571CHORUS Why does not the work advance then?
2571CREST- MAKER What do you bid for them?
2571Come then, what must be done?
2571Do n''t you know all that a man should know, who is distinguished for his wisdom and inventive daring?
2571Do you think I have been long?
2571Do you think I would sell my rump for a thousand drachmae?
2571Do you turn your nose towards the cesspools?
2571Dost thou not see this, that our cities will soon be but empty husks?
2571FIRST SEMI- CHORUS What shall we do to her?
2571FIRST SERVANT But perhaps some spectator, some beardless youth, who thinks himself a sage, will say,"What is this?
2571FIRST SERVANT For what purpose?
2571FIRST SERVANT Who was it then?
2571First of all, how is Sophocles?
2571HERMES And how could she speak to the spectators?
2571HERMES And why?
2571HERMES And wise Cratinus,(1) is he still alive?
2571HERMES Do n''t you know that Zeus has decreed death for him who is surprised exhuming Peace?
2571HERMES How then did Cleonymus behave in fights?
2571HERMES How?
2571HERMES Into Simonides?
2571HERMES Is it then a smell like a soldier''s knapsack?
2571HERMES Rash reprobate, what do you propose doing?
2571HERMES She asks, what will be the result of such a choice of the city?
2571HERMES Tell me, my dear, what are your feelings with regard to them?
2571HERMES What for?
2571HERMES What then?
2571HERMES Why do you come?
2571HERMES Your country?
2571HERMES Your father?
2571HIEROCLES And that is?
2571HIEROCLES And what am I to do?
2571HIEROCLES To whom are you sacrificing?
2571HIEROCLES What are you laughing at?
2571HIEROCLES What oracle ordered you to burn these joints of mutton in honour of the gods?
2571HIEROCLES What sacrifice is this?
2571HIEROCLES You will not give me any meat?
2571Has he done eating?
2571Has the lash rained an army of its thongs on you and laid your back waste?"
2571How so?
2571Is he crazy?
2571Is it true?
2571Is that your grievance against them?
2571LITTLE DAUGHTER And if it fell into the watery depths of the sea, could it escape with its wings?
2571LITTLE DAUGHTER And what harbour will you put in at?
2571LITTLE DAUGHTER But how will you make the journey?
2571LITTLE DAUGHTER Why not saddle Pegasus?
2571Master, have you got garlic in your fist, I wonder?
2571No one?
2571Nothing is more pleasing, when the rain is sprouting our sowings, than to chat with some friend, saying,"Tell me, Comarchides, what shall we do?
2571SECOND SEMI- CHORUS What shall we do to her?
2571SECOND SERVANT And if he does n''t tell you?
2571SECOND SERVANT But what is your purpose?
2571SECOND SERVANT( TO TRYGAEUS) But why start up into the air on chance?
2571SERVANT And those stars like sparks, that plough up the air as they dart across the sky?
2571SERVANT And why not?
2571SERVANT But tell me, who is this woman?
2571SERVANT But where then did you get these pretty chattels?
2571SERVANT Did you see any other man besides yourself strolling about in heaven?
2571SERVANT He has a self- important look; is he some diviner?
2571SERVANT Is it true, what they tell us, that men are turned into stars after death?
2571SERVANT Is that you, master?
2571SERVANT Pots of green- stuff(1) as we do to poor Hermes-- and even he thinks the fare but mean?
2571SERVANT Then who is that star I see over yonder?
2571SERVANT Well then, what must be done now?
2571SERVANT What has happened to you?
2571SERVANT What were they doing up there?
2571SON OF LAMACHUS My father?
2571SON OF LAMACHUS Then what should I sing?
2571SON OF LAMACHUS"The meal over, they girded themselves..."TRYGAEUS With good wine, no doubt?
2571SPEAR- MAKER What will you give?
2571TRYGAEUS A great fat swine then?
2571TRYGAEUS A sheep?
2571TRYGAEUS And do you see with what pleasure this sickle- maker is making long noses at the spear- maker?
2571TRYGAEUS And what is he going to do with his mortar?
2571TRYGAEUS And when I lie beside her and caress her bosoms?
2571TRYGAEUS And why have the gods moved away?
2571TRYGAEUS And''twas with justice too; did they not break down my black fig tree, which I had planted and dunged with my own hands?
2571TRYGAEUS But not the women?
2571TRYGAEUS But where will the poor wretch get his food?
2571TRYGAEUS But why have they left you all alone here?
2571TRYGAEUS Come, come, what are you asking for these two crests?
2571TRYGAEUS Come, who wishes to take the charge of her?
2571TRYGAEUS Do n''t I look like a diviner preparing his mystic fire?
2571TRYGAEUS Do you not hear them wheedling you, mighty god?
2571TRYGAEUS How shall we set about removing these stones?
2571TRYGAEUS How, you cursed animal, could the wolf ever unite with the sheep?
2571TRYGAEUS In short, where are they then?
2571TRYGAEUS Is it not a shame?
2571TRYGAEUS Let us see, who of you is steady enough to be trusted by the Senate with the care of this charming wench?
2571TRYGAEUS My father?
2571TRYGAEUS On what day?
2571TRYGAEUS Tell me, what is War preparing against us?
2571TRYGAEUS Tell me, you little good- for- nothing, are you singing that for your father?
2571TRYGAEUS Then what should be done?
2571TRYGAEUS To what part of the earth?
2571TRYGAEUS Very well then, but how am I going to descend?
2571TRYGAEUS What are they?
2571TRYGAEUS What do I bid?
2571TRYGAEUS What other victim do you prefer then?
2571TRYGAEUS What reason have they for treating us so?
2571TRYGAEUS What will you offer them?
2571TRYGAEUS Where has he gone to then?
2571TRYGAEUS Where?
2571TRYGAEUS Where?
2571TRYGAEUS Who is it?
2571TRYGAEUS Why is there not the harbour of Cantharos at the Piraeus?
2571TRYGAEUS Why not?
2571TRYGAEUS Why, where am I likely to be going across the sky, if it be not to visit Zeus?
2571TRYGAEUS Why, where has she gone to then?
2571TRYGAEUS Will you never stop fooling the Athenians?
2571TRYGAEUS You believe so?
2571TRYGAEUS You have thrown it?
2571TRYGAEUS You?
2571TRYGAEUS( TO THE AUDIENCE) What is going to happen, friends?
2571TUMULT What do you want?
2571TUMULT( WHO HAS RETURNED) Well, what?
2571Tell me, Hermes, my master, do you think it would hurt me to love her a little, after so long an abstinence?
2571WAR How, varlet?
2571WAR Well?
2571WAR What is it?
2571WAR You have brought back nothing?
2571What I to do with them?
2571What are you up to?
2571What does the beetle mean?"
2571What is your next bidding?
2571When his trouble first began to seize him, he said to himself,"By what means could I go straight to Zeus?"
2571Where is the table?
2571Who is here?
2571Who is your father then?
2571Who rules now in the rostrum?
2571Who was her greatest foe here?
2571Why, what plague is this?
2571Will anything that it behooves a wise man to know escape you?
2571Will no one open?
2571Will you not bury that right away and pile a great heap of earth upon it and plant wild thyme therein and pour perfumes on it?
2571Zeus, what art thou going to do for our people?
2571Zeus,"he cries,"what are thy intentions?
2571and furthermore, had she a friend who exerted himself to put an end to the fighting?
2571but what shall I be, when you see me presently dressed for the wedding?
2571do n''t shout, I beg you, dear little Hermes.... And what are you doing, comrades?
2571do n''t you see, little fool, that then twice the food would be wanted?
2571do you see that armourer yonder coming with a wry face?
2571do you wipe with both hands?
2571how did you come here?
2571in the name of the gods, what possesses you?
2571must I really and truly die?
2571my good friend, did you have a good journey?
2571of the earth, did you say?
2571tell me... TRYGAEUS What?
2571to what god are you offering it?
2571venerated goddess, who givest us our grapes, where am I to find the ten- thousand- gallon words(1) wherewith to greet thee?
2571what are you doing?
2571what are you drawing there?
2571what do you reckon to sing?
2571what is this I hear?
2571what is to become of us, wretched mortals that we are?
2571where is the doorkeeper?
2571who is this man, crowned with laurel, who is coming to me?
2571who will buy them?
2571why art thou silent?
2571wo n''t the crests go any more, friend?
2571would you mock me?
2571you are so ignorant you do n''t understand the will of the gods and you make a treaty, you, who are men, with apes, who are full of malice?
2571you down there, what are you after now?
2571you would leave me, you would vanish into the sky, you would go to the crows?
2571your name?
7768But thou, O son of Thetis,said he,"why dost thou disparage the state of the dead?
7768O Circe,he cried,"that is impossible: who shall steer my course to Pluto''s kingdom?
7768What desperate adventure has brought Ulysses to these regions,said Achilles;"to see the end of dead men, and their foolish shades?"
7768What washing does my daughter speak of?
7768And Telemachus said,"Is this the man who can tell us tidings of the king my father?"
7768And he said,"What chief or what ruler is this, that thou commendest so highly, and sayest that he perished at Troy?
7768Are you so soon tired of your country; or did not our present please you?
7768But his father permitted not, but said,"Look better at me; I am no deity; why put you upon me the reputation of godhead?
7768But what says fame?
7768He held Ulysses by the wrist, to stay his entrance; and"Whither wouldest thou go?"
7768Indignation seized Aeolus to behold him in that manner returned; and he said,"Ulysses, what has brought you back?
7768Merchants or wandering thieves?"
7768Then said Ulysses,"Tell me who these suitors are, what are their numbers, and how stands the queen thy mother affected to them?"
7768Thy meats, spiced with poison; or thy wines, drugged with death?
7768What pleasure canst thou promise which may tempt the soul of a reasonable man?
7768What should so poor and old a man as you do at the suitors''tables?
7768What should the cause be?
7768What, can not you quit your wiles and your subtleties, now that you are in a state of security?
7768Where now are all their anxious thoughts of home?
7768Who has not heard of Calypso?
7768and think you that you are unknown?"
7768and what cause he had for making such horrid clamours in the night- time to break their sleeps?
7768art thou prepared to share their fate, from which nothing can ransom thee?"
7768do you wilfully give way to their ill manners?
7768guests, what are you?
7768he said,"what madness from heaven has seized you, that you can laugh?
7768if his fright proceeded from any mortal?
7768if strength or craft had given him his death''s blow?
7768is my son yet alive?
7768lives he in Orchomen, or in Pylus, or is he resident in Sparta, in his uncle''s court?
7768must the first word with which you salute your native earth be an untruth?
7768or do you mistrust your kinsfolk and friends in such sort as without trial to decline their aid?
7768or has your government been such as has procured ill- will towards you from your people?
7768see you not that your meat drops blood?
1666And Byrrhena spake unto mee and sayd, I pray you Cousine how like you our countrey?
1666And dost thou live here as a ghost or hogge, to our great shame and ignominy?
1666And if it had so come to passe that this fearefull maid had beene slaine by him, what danger had we beene in?
1666And moreover she sayd, O Lucius, I have nourished thee with myne owne proper hand: and why not?
1666And to counterfeit the matter, he would come to Charites and say: O what a losse have I had of my friend, my fellow, my companion Lepolemus?
1666And when I was out I cried, O sirrah Hostler where art thou?
1666And wil you not cease in your husbands armes?
1666And you( you harlot) doe you not goe to see your parents?
1666And( espying a Church on the top of a high hill) she said, What can I tell whether my husband and master be there or no?
1666Are you in the mind that you will not tarry in Thessaly?
1666Art thou afraid of the old woman more then halfe dead, whom with a stripe of thy heele thou maist easily dispatch?
1666Be you not afraid of spirits?
1666But I finely feigning and colouring the matter for the time, did breake off his talk, and tooke him by the hand and sayd, Why tarry we?
1666But I pray you tell me how have you been the cause and mean of my trouble and sorrow?
1666But Venus began to cry and sayd, What hath my sonne gotten any Love?
1666But what gainest thou through my delay?
1666But whither shall I fly?
1666Canst thou not goe?
1666Come on, we will beare you company?
1666Commest thou hither to eat, where we should weepe and lament?
1666Couldest not thou( that so often in his life time diddest spurne and kicke him) defend him now at the point of death by the like meane?
1666Did not I alwayes give thee a charge?
1666Did not I gently will thee to beware?
1666Do dead men use to run away in this Countrey?
1666Doest thou not know( Foole as thou art) if thou be naked, if ten Gyants should assaile thee, they could not spoyle or rob thee?
1666Doth he seeme alwayes unto you to be a childe?
1666For what availed the theeves: the beasts savage: thy great servitude: the ill and dangerous waits: the long passages: the feare of death every day?
1666How happy shall we be, that shall see this Infant nourished amongst so great plenty of Treasure?
1666How shall I represse this beast?
1666I being then forced by necessity, though it were against my wil, uncovered the bodies: but O good Lord what a strange sight did I see, what a monster?
1666I pray thee gentle bird that doest serve me so faithfully, tell me what she is, and what is her name that hath troubled my son in such sort?
1666If Jupiter transformed himselfe into a Bull, why may it not be that under the shape of this Asse, is hidden the figure of a man, or some power divine?
1666If you be a bird, where shall I seek you, and when shall I see you?
1666In their returne homeward they murmured within themselves, saying, How say you sister to so apparent a lye of Psyches?
1666In what cave or darknesse shall I hide my selfe, to avoid the furor of Venus?
1666Is this an honest thing, is this honourable to thy parents?
1666Know you not in what place you be?
1666Know you not that we use to take no gage, unless it be either plate or Jewels?
1666Knowst thou not that the theeves have ordained to slay thee?
1666Mary( quoth shee) do you see these Bay windowes, which on one side abut to the gates of the city, and on the other side to the next lane?
1666O rash and bold lampe, the vile ministery of love, how darest thou bee so bold as to burne the god of all fire?
1666Or have you forgotten of what yeares he is?
1666Or shall I seeke for counsel of every poore rusticall woman?
1666Or why did they not slay thee likewise?
1666Passe you all the day and the night in weeping?
1666Saw you not sister what was in the house, what great store of jewels, what glittering robes, what Gemmes, what gold we trod on?
1666Shall I aske ayd of myne enemy Sobriety, whom I have often offended to engender thee?
1666The Hostler lying behinde the stable doore upon a pallet, and half asleepe, What( quoth hee) doe you not know that the wayes be very dangerous?
1666Then Thrasillus having found opportunity to worke his treason, said to Lepolemus: What stand we here amazed?
1666Then Venus with indignation cried out, What is it she?
1666Then answered he, I will tell you soone, but brother I pray you tell mee of your comming from the isle of Euboea, and how you sped by the way?
1666Then he laughed upon me saying: How long shall we nourish and keepe this fiery Asse in vaine?
1666Then one of the shepheards said: Why doe we not make sacrifice of this common adulterous Asse?
1666Then one of them that came last answered, Why are you only ignorant, that the greater the number is, the sooner they may rob and spoyle the house?
1666Then said Fotis, Wil you go about to deceive me now, and inforce me to work my own sorrow?
1666Then said I, It is well nigh day, and moreover, what can theeves take from him that hath nothing?
1666Then said the shepheards, What?
1666Then there came forth a maid which said, Ho sirrah that knocks so fast, in what kinde of sort will you borrow money?
1666Then thought I with my selfe, Alasse where is faith?
1666Then with resemblance of admiration, What( quoth I) is she so excellent a person as you name her to be?
1666To what a point am I now driven?
1666To whom I answered, I pray you maid speak more gently, and tel me whether thy master be within or no?
1666To whom he made answere saying: Doe you looke for any meate or drinke, or any other refection here?
1666To whom shall I seeme to tell any similitude of truth, when as I shall tell the trueth in deed?
1666We most humbly intreat you to pardon his fault if he have accorded to the mind of any maiden: what do you not know that he is a young man?
1666What a comfort will it be unto all the house?
1666What crime hast thou committed?
1666What did he think that I was a bawd, by whose shew he fell acquainted with the maid?
1666What do I finde heere?
1666What do I know whether he( whom I seeke for) be in his mothers house or no?
1666What is he that in so short a space can become so old?
1666What is that?
1666What judgement was there likewise amongst the Athenian lawyers, sage and expert in all sciences?
1666What lodging shall I seek?
1666What meane you to revenge your selves upon us, that doe you no harme?
1666What meane you to rise at this time of night?
1666What shall I do?
1666What sudden change of all my sorrows?
1666What thinke you to gaine by us?
1666What, dost thou make thy selfe ignorant, as though thou didst not understand what travell wee have taken in searching for thee?
1666What, thinke you( quoth she) to deprive our young men of the price of your ransome?
1666What?
1666When night was passed Venus called Psyches, and said, Seest thou yonder Forest that extendeth out in length with the river?
1666Where is his great and new cut?
1666Where is his wound?
1666Where is remorse of conscience?
1666Where is the Sponge?
1666Wherefore sell you this fish so deare, which is not worth a halfepenny?
1666Which when I heard, I sayd to one who passed by, What is here to doe?
1666Which when her husband did heare, he demanded of her by what reason she knew it?
1666Whither shall I goe?
1666Who is he that passeth by the way and will not take me up?
1666Why did they spare thee that stood by and saw them commit that horrible fact?
1666Why do I not take a good heart, and offer my selfe with humilitie unto her, whose anger I have wrought?
1666Why do we not give him to some body for he earneth not his hay?
1666Why doe I delay?
1666Why dost thou not looke for thy death?
1666Why dost thou not rather tell us where thou hast hidden the boy whom thou hast slaine?
1666Why dost thou rashly yeeld unto thy last perill and danger?
1666Why dost thou seek thine own harme, and mine likewise?
1666Why knocke ye your breasts for me?
1666Why leese we so worthy a prey with our feminine hearts?
1666Why lose wee the pleasure of this faire morning?
1666Why show we our selves like dastards?
1666Why soyle ye your faces with teares, which I ought to adore and worship?
1666Why teare you my eyes in yours?
1666Why trouble you your spirits, which are more rather mine than yours?
1666Why wilt thou not goe?
1666Why wilt thou runne into destruction by meane of my feet?
1666Why wouldst thou goe so willingly to hell?
1666Will you blame his luxury?
1666Will you bridle his love?
1666Will you rob me?
1666Yea verily( quoth I), why not?
1666Yes( quoth shee) that he is, why doe you aske?
1666You are his mother, and a kind woman, will you continually search out his dalliance?
1666and why should you seeke the death of her, whom he doth fancie?
1666and will you reprehend your owne art and delights in him?
1666how faireth it with thee?
1666seest thou not these sharpe and pointed flints which shall bruise and teare thee in peeces, if by adventure thou happen upon them?
1666the usurper of my beauty, the Vicar of my name?
1666thinkest thou we handle thee otherwise then thou deservest, which hast stollen away our Asse?
1666what shall I do?
1666whether shee be any of the Nymphs, of the number of the goddesses, of the company of the Muses, or of the mistery of the Graces?
1666whither shall I go?
1666why pull you your hory haires?
11533And so I fail to please, false lady mine? 11533 And who shall match her offspring, If babes are like their mother?
11533Back,quoth she, And screamed and stormed;"a sorry clown kiss me?
11533But thou mislik''st my hair? 11533 Didst thou e''er study dreams?
11533Now therefore take and punish And fairly cut away These all unruly tusks of mine; For to what end serve they? 11533 Slumberest so soon, sweet bridegroom?
11533Soul, why deal with me in this wise? 11533 Wilt not speak?
11533A maid, and flout the Paphian?
11533Am I forgot?
11533Am I not fair?
11533Am I transformed?
11533And Ptolemy do music''s votaries hymn For his good gifts-- hath man a fairer lot Than to have earned much fame among mankind?
11533And did not Rhea for a herdsman weep?
11533And lo, what is she but an o''er- ripe pear?
11533And so forsooth you vote My kid a trifle?
11533And to what region then hath flown the cattle''s rightful lord?
11533And what lass flouts thee?
11533And who asked thee, thou naughty knave, to whom belonged these flocks, Sibyrtas, or( it might be) me?
11533Another lies more welcome in thy lap?
11533Are not we made dependent each on each?"
11533Art thou o''erfond of sleep?
11533Art thou on fire?
11533At shearing who''d prefer Horsehair to wool?
11533BATTUS._ What now, poor o''erworked drudge, is on thy mind?
11533But if you consign all my words to the wind And say,''Why annoy me?
11533But pray, Cometas, say, What is that skin wherewith thou saidst that Lacon walked away?
11533But prythee tell me thou-- so shalt thou best Serve thine own interests-- wherefore art thou here?
11533But to what mortal''s roof may I repair, I and my Muse, and find a welcome there?
11533But what''s thy grievance now?
11533But what, for champions such as we, would, seem a fitting prize?
11533But who shall be our judge?
11533But who shall be our umpire?
11533By noon and midday what will be thy plight If now, so soon, thy sickle fails to bite?
11533Can silver move thee?
11533Can you, could damsel e''er, give Love the slip?
11533Canst thou discern it, pray?
11533Canst thou look upon these temples, with their locks of silver crowned, And still deem thee young and shapely?
11533Corinthians bred( to tell you one fact more) As was Bellerophon: islanders in speech, For Dorians may talk Doric, I presume?
11533Dear lad, what can I do?
11533Did Lacon, did Calæthis''son purloin a goatskin?
11533Didst not thou, Zeus, become a wandering bird, To win the love of one who drove a herd?
11533Do the dogs cry?
11533Dost milk them in the gloaming, when none is nigh to see?
11533Dost speed, a bidden guest, to some reveller''s board?
11533Doth he then treasure something sweet elsewhere?
11533Empress Athenè, what strange sempstress wrought Such work?
11533First Lynceus shouted loud from''neath his helm:"Whence, sirs, this lust for strife?
11533First from the mountain Hermes came, and said,"Daphnis, who frets thee?
11533Fly, Eunoä, ca n''t you?
11533For who can fathom all his fellow''s mind?
11533From the palace, mother?
11533Had he withal an understanding heart, To teach him when to rage and when forbear, What brute could claim like praise?
11533Hast seen A wolf?"
11533Hast thou not heard?
11533Hath a near view revealed him satyr- shaped Of chin and nostril?
11533Hath love ne''er kept thee from thy slumbers yet?
11533Have I guessed aright?
11533Have ye not eyes to see Cometas, him who filched a pipe but two days back from me?
11533Have you forgot that cudgelling I gave you?
11533He may have come from sacred Argos''self, Or Tiryns, or Mycenæ: what know I?
11533He scoured far fields-- what hill or oaken glen Remembers not that pilgrimage of pain?
11533Hear''st thou our child, our younger, how he cries?
11533Her modest virtues oft shall men rehearse; Who doubts it?
11533Hewn from hard rocks, untired at set of sun, Milo, didst ne''er regret some absent one?
11533How came it among rivered Nemea''s glens?
11533How fell sage Helen?
11533How slew you single- handed that fell beast?
11533How, when shall we get past This nuisance, these unending ant- like swarms?
11533How?
11533I''ll wash my mouth: where go thy kisses then?
11533I, a leaflet of to- day, I whose breath is in my nostrils, am I wrong to own his sway?"
11533In fair Penëus''or in Pindus''glens?
11533Is his the goat?
11533Is his the horned ram?
11533Is it fair Of access?
11533Is our prattle aught To you, Sir?
11533Is this enjoying wealth?
11533It is right to torment one who loves you?
11533Lad, whom lov''st thou so?"
11533May we not then recognise them by introducing similar assonances, etc., here and there into the English version?
11533My maid, my own, Eyes me and asks''At milking time, rogue, art thou all alone?''
11533Nay, pile it on: Where are thy wits flown, timorous Thestylis?
11533Need I prate to thee, Sweet Moon, of all we said and all we did?
11533No?
11533Not e''en such grace as from yon spring to sip?
11533Now, all alone, I''ll weep a love whence sprung When born?
11533O Cyclops, Cyclops, where are flown thy wits?
11533O saviours, O companions of mankind, Matchless on horse or harp, in lists or lay; Which of ye twain demands my earliest song?
11533Or hadst thou drunk too deep When thou didst fling thee to thy lair?
11533Or hast thou leadenweighted limbs?
11533Or townward to the treading of the grape?
11533Philondas?
11533Praxinoä in?
11533Pray, does she browse on dewdrops, as doth the grasshopper?
11533Priapus came And said,"Why pine, poor Daphnis?
11533Run,( will ye?)
11533Satyr, ne''er boast:''what''s idler than a kiss?''
11533Satyr, what mean you?
11533Say''st thou mine hour is come, my sun hath set?
11533Seeking Augéas, or mayhap some slave That serves him?
11533Seest thou yon walls illumed at dead of night, But not by morn''s pure beam?
11533Shall I be flouted, I, by such as thou?
11533Shall thy folly know no bound?
11533Should I say yea, what dower awaits me then?
11533Sibyrtas''bondsman own a pipe?
11533Still haunt the dark- browed little girl whom once he used to tease?
11533Swear not to we d, then leave me in my woe?
11533That learned I when( I murmuring''loves she me?'')
11533The pipe that erst he fashioned is doubtless scored with rust?
11533Then what shall be the victor''s fee?
11533Think''st thou scorn of him?
11533This arm, these gauntlets, who shall dare withstand?
11533This art thou fain to ascertain, and risk a bet with me?
11533Thou wilt not?
11533To Aphroditè then he told his woe:''How can a thing so tiny hurt one so?''
11533To him said Aphroditè:"So, worst of beasts,''twas you Who rent that thigh asunder, Who him that loved me slew?"
11533Tootling through straws with Corydon mayhap''s beneath thee now?
11533Was not he born to compass noblest ends, Lagus''own son, so soon as he matured Schemes such as ne''er had dawned on meaner minds?
11533We''ve Homer; and what other''s worth a thought?
11533Were ye and song forgot, What grace had earth?
11533What art thou?
11533What boots it to weep out thine eyes?
11533What boots it?
11533What can this mean?
11533What did it stand you in, straight off the loom?
11533What does woman dread?
11533What fires the Muse''s, what the minstrel''s lays?
11533What hero son- in- law of Zeus Hath e''er aspired to be?
11533What is he else?
11533What minstrel loves not well The Tyndarids, and Helen, and the chiefs That trod Troy down for Meneläus''sake?
11533What painter painted, realized Such pictures?
11533What reck''st thou?
11533What time have workers for regret?
11533What wager wilt thou lay?
11533What was Endymion, sweet Selenè''s love?
11533What were they?
11533What, Firefly, is thy sleep so deep?
11533What, again?
11533What, what to my old father must I say?
11533When learned I from thy practice or thy preaching aught that''s right, Thou puppet, thou misshapen lump of ugliness and spite?
11533When?
11533Where are like cities, peopled by like men?
11533Where are the bay- leaves, Thestylis, and the charms?
11533Where are those good old times?
11533Where did he spring from?
11533Where were ye, Nymphs, oh where, while Daphnis pined?
11533Who dreamed what subtle strains our bumpkin wrought?
11533Who own this shore?
11533Who owns these cattle, Corydon?
11533Who thanks us, who, For our good word?
11533Who would not change for this the ocean- waves?
11533Who wrought my sorrow?
11533Whose threshold crossed I not, Or missed what grandam''s hut who dealt in charms?
11533Why be so hot?
11533Why be so timorous?
11533Why no more Greet''st thou thy darling, from the caverned rock Peeping all coyly?
11533Why what ails him now?
11533Why, sword in hand, Raise ye this coil about your neighbours''wives?
11533Wilt thou, to crown our strife, some meed assign?
11533With fists?
11533Yet found he that one cure: he sate him down On the tall cliff, and seaward looked, and sang:--"White Galatea, why disdain thy love?
11533Yet what if all your chests with gold are lined?
11533Yet who, of all that see the gray morn rise, Lifts not his latch and hails with eager eyes My Songs, yet sends them guerdonless away?
11533You note it, I presume, Morson?
11533Your Artemis shall be your saviour still?
11533am I wandering?
11533brutish churl, or o''erproud king?
11533hadst not thou thy lady- loves?"
11533is he at his tricks again?
11533is not''Cleita''s worth''a proverb to this day?
11533or by availing ourselves of what Professor Blackie again calls attention to, the"compensating powers"[B] of English?
11533or does night pass slow?"
11533or fist and foot, eye covering eye?
11533or if not, what can?
11533or when the goat stood handy, suffer her To nurse her firstling, and himself go milk a blatant cur?
11533was the wrestler''s oil e''er yet so much as seen by him?
11533were that fair for either?
11533whence gotst thou that, and how?
11533who listen to our strain?
11533why, like the marsh- born leech, Cling to my flesh, and drain my dark veins dry?
13725''Thou knowest my need,''I answered;''why dost thou waste thy words? 13725 Are ye merchants,"he said,"or bold buccaneers, who roam the seas, a peril to others, and ever in peril themselves?"
13725Are ye not covered with shame already, by your foul deeds done in this house in the absence of its lord? 13725 Art thou a goddess, or a mortal woman?
13725But tell me truly, how did he with his single hand gain the mastery over such a multitude?
13725Dost thou doubt my power to help thee? 13725 Father,"she said,"may I have the waggon to take the household raiment to the place of washing?
13725Go to,replied his brethren,"if no man is using thee despitefully, why callest thou to us?
13725Hast thou lost thy wits?
13725How say ye, fair sirs?
13725How was it,he asked,"that already in early childhood thou wast cast on the mercy of strangers?
13725How would it be if I showed myself to the wooers? 13725 Is the public voice against thee,"he asked,"or art thou at feud with thy brethren, so that they will not help thee?
13725Is there not one among you,he cried indignantly,"who will speak a word for Telemachus, or testify against the wickedness of these men?
13725Now tell me,began Penelope, when the chair had been brought,"who art thou, and of what country?
13725O my mother,cried Odysseus in deep distress,"why dost thou mock me thus?
13725Of my own free will I lent her,answered the lad,"why should I not help him in his need?
13725Royal son of Atreus,he said, in a voice broken with weeping,"is it here that I find thee, great chieftain of the embattled Greeks?
13725Shall I bring them in,asked the squire,"or send them on to another house?"
13725Shall I not go to Laertes, and tell him also?
13725Shall we, who owe so much to the kindness of strangers, in the long years of our wanderings, send any man from our doors? 13725 Son of Laertes,"he said,"thou man of daring, hast thou reached the limit of thy rashness, or wilt thou go yet further?
13725Son of Laertes,he said,"why goest thou thus unwarily, even as a silly bird into the net of the fowler?
13725Speak not to me of such vanities,answered Penelope;"why should I wish to preserve this poor remnant of my beauty?
13725Thinkest thou that the poor man will win me for his wife if he succeeds? 13725 Thou art mad, nurse,"answered Penelope pettishly, turning in her bed and rubbing her eyes;"why mockest thou me in my sorrow with thy folly?
13725Thou surely art of some country,she said, smiling;"or art thou one of those of whom old stories tell, born of stocks and stones?"
13725Was it that he might suffer as I have suffered, in wandering o''er the deep, while others devour his living?
13725What ails the hounds?
13725What ails thee, Polyphemus,they asked,"that thou makest this dreadful din, murdering our sleep?
13725What can I do?
13725What sayest thou to Athene and her father, Zeus? 13725 Where is thy faith?"
13725Who art thou,he asked,"that comest back in a moment thus wondrously transfigured?
13725Who put such a thought into thy heart?
13725Who put such a thought,he asked,"into thy mind?
13725Why came he hither to bring strife among us?
13725Why comest thou alone?
13725Why didst thou permit him to go on a vain errand?
13725Why should not the stranger try his skill with the rest?
13725Why sit ye thus,he cried,"huddled together like sheep?
13725Why standest thou idle?
13725Why wilt thou take this dreadful journey, thou, an only child, so loved, and so dear? 13725 Wilt thou be ever harping on that string?
13725''And hast thou a mind to see thy native land again?''
13725A common question addressed to persons newly arrived from the sea is,"Are you a merchant, a traveller, or a pirate?"
13725Am I not tall and fair, and worthy to be called a daughter of heaven?
13725And art thou indeed the son of Odysseus, whom none could match in craft and strategy?
13725And how did Ægisthus contrive to slay a man mightier far than himself?"
13725And knowest thou aught of my father, Peleus?
13725And what cause has brought all these men hither?"
13725And what if a god should visit this house in some strange disguise, to make trial of our hearts?
13725And where shall I find means to pay back her dower?
13725And who could tell what heavy trials awaited him when once more he set foot on his native soil?
13725And who were thy father and mother?"
13725Antinous heard him to the end with ill- disguised impatience, and then broke out in angry tones:"Who brought this wretched fellow here to vex us?
13725Are there no perils left for thee in the land of the living that thou must invade the very realm of Hades, the sunless haunts of the dead?"
13725Are there not beggars enough here already to mar our pleasure when we sit down to meat?
13725Are they savage and rude, or gentle and hospitable to strangers?"
13725Art thou not ashamed to take sides with this malapert boy, feeding his passion and folly with thy crazy prophecies?
13725Art thou still wandering on thy long voyage from Troy, or hast thou been in Ithaca, and seen thy wife?"
13725Art thou that Odysseus of whom Hermes spake, telling me that he should come hither on his voyage from Troy?
13725Art thou tired of thy life?"
13725As soon as he appeared on the threshold Penelope looked at him reproachfully, and said:"What message bringest thou from thy fair masters?
13725But I fear me greatly that this task is too hard for us; how shall two men prevail against so many?
13725But answer me once more, what means this lawless riot in the house?
13725But come, ye bold wooers, which of you will be the first to enter the lists for this matchless prize, a lady without peer in all the land of Hellas?
13725But tell me now of a truth, art not thou the son of that man?
13725But tell me now, and answer me truly, what was the manner of thy death?
13725But tell me truly, where didst thou moor thy vessel on thy landing?
13725But to Menelaus I would have thee go; him thou must by all means consult; for who knows what he may have learnt on that wondrous voyage?
13725But what am I saying?
13725But what can one do against so many?
13725But what has it availed him?
13725But what miracle was this?
13725But who is that tall and goodly lad, who sits apart, with gloomy brow, and seems ill- pleased with the doings of that riotous crew?
13725But why do I ask?
13725But why do I speak thus to thee?
13725Came he to fight with the Trojans after I was gone, and did he acquit him well?
13725Came it slowly, by long disease, or did Artemis lay thee low in a moment with a painless arrow from her bow?
13725Comest thou for the first time to Ithaca, or art thou an old friend of this house, bound to us by ties of ancient hospitality?"
13725Did I not save him and cherish him when he was flung naked and helpless on these shores?
13725Did he bring any tidings of thy father?"
13725Do they still live, or have they gone to their rest?"
13725Egypt, sayest thou?
13725For what wilt thou say of me, when thou art wandering in distant lands, if I suffer thee to abide here thus poorly clad, unwashed, and uncared for?
13725For who ever beheld such wooing as yours?
13725Foul or fair, what matters it in my widowed state?
13725Had he not borne even worse than this on the day when the Cyclops devoured his comrades in the cave?
13725Has she not grief enough already?
13725Hast thou ever seen such lavish ornament of silver, and gold, and ivory?
13725Hast thou not heard of the fame which Orestes won, when he slew the murderer of his sire?
13725Hast thou not turned my men into swine, and didst thou not seek even now to put thy wicked spells upon me?"
13725Hath any tidings come of the return of those who followed him to Troy, or is it some other business of public moment which has called us hither?
13725He seemed a goodly man; but why did he start up and leave us so suddenly?
13725He was in the prime of his manhood, surrounded by his friends, and in the midst of a joyous revel; who would dream of death and doom in such an hour?
13725Hearts of stone, why did ye not tell me of his going?
13725How camest thou by this raiment?
13725How shall a man cross this dreadful gulf, where no ship is ever seen, on a raft?
13725How was he with such help as Telemachus could give him to overpower and slay a hundred men in the prime of their youth and strength?
13725Hungry and weary as we are, wouldst thou have us turn away from this fair isle, where we could prepare a comfortable meal, and take refreshing sleep?
13725I would fain speak with this stranger; who knows but he may have somewhat to tell me of Odysseus, my lord?"
13725If he killed Polyphemus, how was he to escape from the cavern?
13725Is anyone stealing thy sheep or thy goats?
13725Is it not enough that I have lost my brave father, whose gentleness and loving- kindness ye all knew, when he was your king?
13725Is it their pleasure that my maidens should leave their tasks and spread the board for them?
13725Is my power to be defied, and my worship slighted, by these Phæacians, who are of mine own race?"
13725Is not Odysseus mine?
13725Is their aid enough or shall we look for more?"
13725It was of Antiphus that he thought, as he stood up and made harangue among the elders:"Who has summoned us hither, and what is his need?
13725Know ye when he is to return from Pylos?"
13725Knowest thou not that thou art a child of great hopes, and a favourite of heaven?"
13725Lies she near at hand, or on a distant part of the coast?"
13725Must I show you the way?
13725Now tell me truly, I implore thee, what is this place where I am wandering?
13725Of all his gallant peers, for ten years his companions in many a joyful feast, and many a high adventure, how many were left?
13725Oh, for an hour of life, with such might as was mine when I fought in the van for Greece?
13725Or art thou but the shadow of a shade, a phantom sent by Persephone to deceive me?"
13725Or art thou keeping thy tidings until the wooers return?
13725Or do his looks belie his qualities?
13725Or seeks anyone to slay thee by force or by guile?"
13725Say, hast thou brought any news of thy father?"
13725Say, how comest thou hither, and what arm aimed the stroke which laid thee low?"
13725Say, therefore, who art thou, and where is thy home?
13725Shall I become a byword among the people, as false to the memory of my true lord?
13725Shall we add the horrors of night to the horrors of the sea, and confront the demons of storm that haunt the caverns of darkness?
13725Sweet home of my wedded joy, must I leave thee, and all the faces which I love so well, and the great possessions which he gave into my keeping?
13725Telemachus replied:"How can I drive away the mother who bare me and nourished me?
13725Tell me, how long is it since thou didst receive him, and who art thou, and where is thy home?"
13725Then he called to Odysseus, and said:"How sayest thou, friend, wilt thou be my thrall, and work on my farm among the hills for a fixed wage?
13725Then said Polyphemus, as his great hands passed over his back:"Dear ram, why art thou the last to leave the cave?
13725Then wise Penelope made answer, slumbering right sweetly at the gates of dreams:"Dear sister, what has brought thee hither from thy far distant home?
13725Thinkest thou that every fowl of the air is a messenger from heaven?
13725Thou saidst''twas Ithaca, but in that I think thou speakest falsely, with intent to deceive me; or is this indeed my native land?"
13725Ungrateful men, have ye forgotten all the good deeds that were wrought here by the hands of Odysseus, and all the kindness that ye received from him?
13725Was it not but too probable that he would find his house made desolate, Telemachus dead, and Penelope wedded to another?
13725Wast thou taken captive in war, or did robbers seize thee as thou satst watching sheep on the lonely hills, and sell thee into bondage?"
13725We have slain the noblest in the land, not one, but many, who leave a host of friends to take up their cause: how then shall we escape the blood feud?
13725Were it not better that I took him with me to my farm?
13725What if he had come by his death through this violence?
13725What shall I do?
13725What was he to do with all this wealth?
13725When she had drunk she said:"Whence comest thou, my son?
13725When she observed it, Circe rallied him for his sullenness:"Art thou afraid to eat?"
13725When they had supped, Calypso looked at Odysseus and said:"And wilt thou indeed leave me, thou strange man?
13725Where was Menelaus when that foul deed was done?
13725Who hath moved my bed from its place?
13725Who in all the world will ever draw near to thee again, after the hideous deeds which thou hast wrought?"
13725Who knows but that Odysseus will yet return, and make them drink the cup which they have filled?
13725Who knows but thy master is now in like evil case, grown old before his time through care and misery?"
13725Why didst thou bring this caitiff to the town?
13725Why holdest thou thus aloof from my father, who has come back to thee after twenty years of suffering and toil?
13725Why pierce ye the heart of the lady with your howlings?
13725Why sit ye thus silent?
13725Why will she delay us further?
13725Will not one of you run down to the camp, and ask Agamemnon to send us further succour?''
13725Wilt thou go begging at other men''s tables, or art thou waiting to taste of my fists?"
13725Wilt thou not repay us by telling something of thyself?
13725With a cry of dismay he sprang to his feet, and cried aloud:"Good lack, what land have I come to now, and who be they that dwell there?
13725With a stern look Odysseus answered him, and said:"What possesses thee, fellow, that thou seekest a quarrel with me?
13725Would ye be for the wooers or for him?"
13725Wouldst thou be wedded in soiled attire, and have all thy friends clad unseemly, to put thee to shame?
13725Wouldst thou destroy him whom thou hast nursed at thine own breast?"
13725Wretch, why dost thou lay snares against the life of my son?
13725and why hast thou disturbed me in the sweetest sleep that ever I had since the fatal, the accursed day when my lord sailed for Troy?
13725art thou there?"
13725cried Antinous,"thinkest thou that there are no better men here than thou art?
13725hast thou no heart at all?
13725he cried,"when shall my troubles have an end?
13725he cried,"would these dastards fill the seat and we d the wife of that mighty man?
13725said the implacable god, shaking his head;"and have the other powers plotted against me in my absence, to frustrate my just anger?
13725she said, smiling:"have I not sworn to do thee no harm?
13725she said,"wilt thou never forget thy cunning shifts, wherein none can surpass thee, no, not the gods themselves?
13725son of Telamon,"he said,"canst thou not forgive me, even here?

909013, 164:_ Caerula_ quis stupuit_ Germani lumina?
90904, 17: Quis est, qui non beneficus_ videri_ velit?
9090An eandem Romanis in bello virtutem, quam in pace lasciviam adesse creditis?"
9090And why is the purpose so scrupulously concealed, that confessedly it can be gathered only from obscure intimations, and those of ambiguous import?
9090But then what is_ retro_ sequuntur?
9090Equidem saepe in agmine, cum vos paludes montesve et flumina fatigarent, fortissimi cujusque voces audiebam, Quando dabitur hostis, quando acies?
9090Greek authors make early mention of Albion( plural of Alp?)
9090Moreover, how could T. properly use the word_ hostium_ of his own countrymen?
9090Nec tamen affirmaverim, nullam Germaniae venam argentum aurumve gignere: quis enim scrutatus est?

9074I am not general-- you are; why should I do your work for you?
9074What, then, is the meaning of your question, whether we have done you or your allies any service during this war? 9074 Can anyone assert that our connexion with Athens answers to this description? 9074 Encouraged by the shouts of the multitude, who were crying to Cleon,Why do n''t you go and do it?"
9074Have we not seen how the confederacy of maritime cities formed against Persia was gradually converted into an Athenian empire?
9074Have you forgotten the debt which you owe to her?
9074If you ask as foes, how can you claim any service?
9074Or why should we relax our hold upon our allies, or break off the relations with them which were sanctioned by the Thirty Years''Truce?
9074Shall we, then, sell our honour to save a few vineyards and olive- grounds from temporary damage?
9074Was it possible that a favoured and privileged ally had taken up arms against them in the hour of their distress?
9074Was there anything in his character, any fact in his whole life, which justified them in suspecting him of unworthy motives?
9074What, then, will men say, if Spartan judges are guilty of blotting Plataea out of the map of Greece, and of the judicial murder of her citizens?
9074Where is your loyalty to Sparta?
9074Who drove us into the arms of Athens, when we were hard pressed by the tyranny of Thebes?
9074Who, then, was worthier than she to hold empire over Greeks?
9074Why had not the Spartans listened to the warnings which they had heard, when the Athenians were rebuilding their walls?
9074Why, then, were they now indulging in weak regrets, and turning against him whom they had appointed as their chosen guide and adviser?
9074Will ye enslave those fields which saw the triumph of Greek liberty, and dishonour the gods by whose favour the victory was won?
9074who are guilty of their blood?
1170A peltast, then?
1170And the neighbouring country?
1170And yet, if we yield ourselves and fall into the king''s power, need we ask what our fate will be? 1170 But consider one point,"urged Xenophon;"if we are to march by night, is not the Hellenic fashion best?
1170But how,it was asked,"will they manage to wrestle on the hard scrubby ground?"
1170But let me ask you, in what condition do you turn your backs on this 31 land to- day? 1170 But what right have I to be drawing conclusions about stealing in your presence, Cheirisophus?
1170But when they have expended their ammunition,said Xenophon,"there is nothing else, is there, to hinder our passing?
1170Dost thou not mark how my son has sneezed a blessing on all my words?
1170Good,said Xenophon,"but to what use do you propose to put us, if we become your allies?
1170How then are we to get them collected?
1170Nay,retorted Xenophon,"by the same token we shall all one day be dead, but that is no reason why meantime we should all be buried alive?"
1170Some one may say, are you not ashamed to be so taken in like a fool? 1170 Then what injury have you received from me,"Cyrus asked,"that now for the third time, you have been detected in a treasonous plot against me?"
1170Then, once more having discovered the limits of your power, did you flee to the altar of Artemis, crying out that you repented? 1170 Well then,"said Xenophon,"supposing we came, what should you be able to give us?
1170Well then,said they,"he will oppose our taking away the troops, will he not?"
1170Well,said he,"was he any the less dead when I reported him to you?"
1170What was the country?
1170What, must we anticipate, will now be our fate? 1170 Why had he not invited Xenophon with the others?"
1170Why, when we had it in our power to destroy you, did we not proceed to do it? 1170 ( 1) Can this be the same man whose escape is so graphically described above? 1170 --How say you the same views?"
11705 Then at last he recognised him, and inquired:"Are you the fellow who carried home the sick man?"
1170After that they asked,"Were there any captains of light infantry willing to accompany the expedition?"
1170After that,"and at this point Cyrus turned to Orontas, and addressed him personally--"after that, did I do you any wrong?"
1170And Clearchus answered:"So, then, that is your 20 deliberate view?
1170And again,"For whom are the horses being bred?"
1170And how do you propose to stimulate their sense of awe, and keep them in good behaviour towards you?
1170And now, since we have reached Hellenic cities, how has it fared with us?
1170And what had we?
1170And what will you in turn be able to do to assist our passage?"
1170And you, who know all this, how can you say that it is mere nonsense to talk of self- defence?
1170Are not all things in all ways subject to the gods?
1170Are these things so?"
1170Are you minded to stop and keep truce, or is there to be war?
1170As soon as he was fully awake, the first clear thought which came into his head was, Why am I lying here?
1170As to the generals, their immediate concern was to try and gain some information as to Seuthes:"Was he hostile or friendly?
1170At this point he again questioned Medosades,"Whether the words attributed to him were exact?"
1170But how so?
1170But if he who partly gave you this security has failed to pay in full the wages due to you therefrom, is not that a terrible misfortune?
1170But now, what do you think of their case, these men of Cerasus?
1170But what is your behaviour?
1170But you will tell me, perhaps, that I get from Seuthes what is by right yours, and that I deal subtly by you?
1170But, granted that the rivers do bar our passage, and that guides are not forthcoming, what care we?
1170Cheirisophus answered:"But why should you go and leave your command in the rear?
1170Cheirisophus answered:"Look up there,"pointing as he spoke to the mountain,"do you see how inaccessible it all is?
1170Clearchus listened to the reasoning, and then he asked the messenger,"How large the country between the Tigris and the canal might be?"
1170Clearly, the attacking party must either conquer or be worsted: if they conquer, what need of their breaking down the bridge?
1170Consider, then; is it better to go and meet the foe with arms advanced, or with arms reversed to watch him as he assails us on our rear?
1170Could any one make you believe that the sun rises here and sets there, or that he sets here and rises there?
1170Did Cheirisophus conceivably die of fever brought on by some poisonous draught?
1170Did I ask you for something and, on your refusing it to me, did I proceed to beat you?
1170Did any one ever die in battle from the bite or kick of a horse?
1170Do I hinder any of them from speaking any word of import in his power?
1170Do not the cities which gave us birth yield them obedience also?
1170Do you not see all these great plains, which you find it hard enough to traverse even when they are friendly?
1170Does not the surgeon also cauterise and cut us for our good?
1170Eucleides congratulated Xenophon upon his safe return, and asked him how much gold he had got?
1170For if I am not much mistaken, the enemy were close at our heels?"
1170For what of the man who can not be trusted?
1170Galloping up to the front himself, he asked:"Why do you summon me?"
1170Have you not wintered here in the lap of plenty?
1170Hearing this, Xenophon dismounted, and the other asked:"Why do you dismount just when speed is the thing we want?"
1170How are we to march most safely?
1170However, why do you address yourself to me?
1170I ask then, with all these banded together against us, is there any one so insensate as to imagine that we can survive the contest?
1170I ask you, does it seem to you that we lack the means, if we had the will, to destroy you?
1170I now call upon you, and you first, Clearchus, to declare your opinion-- what think you?"
1170If as our master, why need he ask for them rather than come and take them?
1170If we can trust any guide whom Cyrus may vouchsafe to us, why not order Cyrus at once to occupy the pass on our behoof?
1170In this way he contrived to turn back and consult the victims,"Would the gods allow him to try and bring the army over to Seuthes?"
1170In your choice of leaders do I stand in the way of any one, is that it?
1170It is a little dangerous for myself, is it not?
1170Nay, if in a fit of madness we murdered you, what then?
1170Now is that a point in which a man might hope to cheat you?
1170Now, sirs, is it not clear that all these good things belong to whoever has strength to hold them?
1170Or again, which will be the greater drain on your purse?
1170Or do you impute the fault to some one not here?
1170Other people with Cyrus won great success, they were told( 1); why should it not be so with them?
1170Presently the Lacedaemonians asked:"What sort of man is Xenophon?"
1170Seuthes put the question,"Would you like to die on his behalf, Episthenes?"
1170Seuthes, turning to the boy, asked,"Shall I smite him instead of you?"
1170Should we not ourselves bestow the worst of names on the perpetrators of like deeds?"
1170The other again asked:"Peace or war, what answer shall I make?"
1170The others asked,"Were they willing to give them pledges to that effect?"
1170The soldiers held a meeting, and took counsel about the remainder of the journey: should they make their exit from the Pontus by sea or by land?
1170The soldiers, on their side, laid the blame of course on Xenophon:"Where was their pay?"
1170The two were brought up at once and questioned separately:"Did they know of any other road than the one visible?"
1170Then the Arcadians inquired of Xenophon''s officers-- why they had quenched the watch- fires?
1170There is no passing, 39 until we have dislodged these fellows; why have you not brought up the light infantry?"
1170Thereupon they consulted together, and to Xenophon''s inquiry,"What it was which hindered their simply walking in?"
1170They asked:"Does he play the popular leader?"
1170Was I not actually on my road home when I turned back?
1170Was I the worse for liquor, and behaving like a drunkard?"
1170Was he really leading them to attack the king?
1170Was it a debt, for which I demanded payment?
1170Was it not rather, that they had noticed my abundant zeal on your behalf?
1170Was it, do you suppose, because they detected some ill- will in me towards you that they made the allegation?
1170What answer shall I take from you?"
1170What follows?
1170What friendly city will receive us when they see rampant lawlessness in our midst?
1170What is it?
1170What then did common sense suggest?
1170What wrong did I commit in bringing you, whither you were eager to go?
1170When Polynicus and I asked Seuthes, what sort of a man he was?
1170When asked,"What shall you need?"
1170When the man met each of these questions with a negative, he questioned him further:"Are you a heavy infantry soldier?"
1170When, lithe of limb, she danced the Pyrrhic( 4), loud clapping followed; and the Paphlagonians asked,"If these women fought by their side in battle?"
1170Where are the men posted to intercept us?
1170Who indeed would care to carry a flag of truce, or go as a herald with 30 the blood of heralds upon his hands?
1170Who was there now to furnish them with a market?
1170Who will have the courage to afford us a market, when we prove our worthlessness in these weightiest concerns?
1170Why should it be guarded since it was friendly?
1170Why?
1170Will you take us for your allies?
1170Will you then please inform us as to that point also?
1170Would you, Xenophon, repeat what you said to us?"
1170Xenophon inquired:"And how far from the sea shall you expect the army to follow you?"
1170Xenophon laughed and said:"But supposing these all together do not amount to the pay; for whom is the talent, shall I say?
1170You ask what it is I would have you to do?
1170You heard the threats?"
1170a general to undertake the work?
1170also, would they have to march through the Sacred mountain( 1), or round about through the middle of Thrace?"
1170am I waiting till I am older mysef and of riper age?
1170and all yonder great mountain chains left for you to cross, which we can at any time occupy in advance and render impassable?
1170and did you thus work upon my feelings, that we a second time shook hands and made interchange of solemn pledges?
1170and from what city?
1170and what becomes of the praise we expect to win from the mouths of men?
1170have we not horsemen enough, or infantry, or whatever other arm you like, whereby we may be able to injure you, without risk of suffering in return?
1170how can you bid us go again and try the arts of persuasion?
1170in slaying our benefactor should we not have challenged to enter the lists against us a more formidable antagonist in the king himself?
1170is not their lordship over all alike outspread?
1170of striking a blow in your behalf and his own, if that is his choice?
1170or a quarrel about some boy or other?
1170or did he die under treatment?
1170or did he take poison whilst suffering from fever?
1170or how shall we, who lay the knife to each other''s throats, give battle to our enemies?
1170or where blows are needed, how are we to fight to the best advantage?
1170or, finally, of keeping his eyes and ears open to secure your safety?
1170or, possibly, do we seem to you 17 to lack the physical surroundings suitable for attacking you?
1170the question arises, Was he equally good as a commander?
1170the soldiers, the officers, and the generals?
1170to pay off your present debt, or, with that still owing, to bid for more troops, and of a better quality?
1170what am I waiting for?
1170what did I say,"he asked,"at your next visit, when 28 you came to me in Selybria?"
1170what is happening at this instant?
1170while others hearing from us a hundred stories in your praise, hasten to present themselves at your desire?
1170who will vouchsafe it to us, if this is our behaviour?
1170why have I managed my affairs no better?
35173''Tis he!--What, sirrah, how Show''st thou before my portals?
35173Ah, saw ye, marked ye there the flame From Semelê''s enhallowed sod Awakened?
35173And Pentheus, O Mother, Thy child?
35173And after?
35173And comest thou first to Thebes, to have thy God Established?
35173And deem''st thou Thebes so beggared, so forlorn Of manhood, as to sit beneath thy scorn?
35173And how Mean''st thou the further plan?
35173And if for once thou hast slipped thy chain, Give thanks!--Or shall I knot thine arms again?
35173And if thou prove Their madness true, aye, more than true, what love And thanks hast thou for me?
35173And in all Thebes shall no man dance but we?
35173And is it a Wild Bull this, that walks and waits Before me?
35173And seeing ye must, what is it that ye wait?
35173And so thine eyes Saw this God plain; what guise had he?
35173And that wild tremor, is it with thee still?
35173And what child in Echîon''s house had birth?
35173And what good bring they to the worshipper?
35173And what of import may thy coming bring?
35173And whence these revelations, that thy band Spreadeth in Hellas?
35173Are we not told His is the soul of that dead life of old That sprang from mine own daughter?
35173Aye, and Pentheus, where is he, My son?
35173Aye, and next?
35173Aye, if I obey Mine own slaves''will; how else?
35173Aye, men will rail that I forget my years, To dance and wreathe with ivy these white hairs; What recks it?
35173Blasphemies That crave the very gibbet?
35173But how should we be on the hills this day?
35173But soft, methinks a footstep sounds even now within the hall;''Tis he; how think ye he will stand, and what words speak withal?
35173But what is it?
35173Canst hearken then, being changed, and answer, now?
35173Canst lead me hence Unseen of any?
35173Clasped he his death indeed, Clasped the rod?
35173Come, say what it shall be, My doom; what dire thing wilt thou do to me?
35173Dost praise it?
35173Dost thou mark us not, nor cherish, Who implore thee, and adore thee?
35173Doth it change So soon, all thy desire to see this strange Adoring?
35173Dreams?
35173Fell ye so quick despairing, when beneath the Gate I passed?
35173Gibes of the unknown wanderer?
35173Ha, have I found the way to sting thee, there?
35173Hast thou aught beyond?
35173Have I not welcomed thee?
35173He is no man, but a wonder; Did the Earth- Child not beget him, As a red Giant, to set him Against God, against the Thunder?
35173His own house, or where?
35173How comest thou here?
35173How didst thou break thy cage?
35173How hast thou''scaped the man of sin?
35173How hath it sped?
35173How is thy worship held, by night or day?
35173I praise this?
35173In full day Or vision of night?
35173In my right hand Is it, or thus, that I should bear the wand, To be most like to them?
35173In thine own Nysa, thou our help alone?
35173In what place was it?
35173Injurious King, hast thou no care for God, Nor Cadmus, sower of the Giants''Sod, Life- spring to great Echîon and to thee?
35173Is it joy or terror, ye storm- swift feet?
35173Is it the same, or changèd in thy sight?
35173Is there a Zeus there, that can still beget Young Gods?
35173Is there any way With man''s sore heart, save only to forget?
35173Is there not blood before thine eyes even now?
35173Kithaeron''s steeps and all that in them is-- How say''st thou?--Could my shoulders lift the whole?
35173Kithaeron?
35173Laid in due state?
35173Nay; am I a woman, then, And no man more?
35173Never more, then, shalt thou lay Thine hand to this white beard, and speak to me Thy"Mother''s Father"; ask"Who wrongeth thee?
35173O Child, why wilt thou reach thine arms to me, As yearns the milk- white swan, when old swans die?
35173O Light in Darkness, is it thou?
35173O Priest, is this thy face?
35173O cruel Truth, is this thine home- coming?
35173Oh, what echoes thus?
35173Oh, what was left if thou wert gone?
35173Or prove our wit on Heaven''s high mysteries?
35173Or this bare hand And shoulder to the crags, to wrench them down?
35173Or were it best to wait Darkened for evermore, and deem your state Not misery, though ye know no happiness?
35173P. 121, l. 822, Am I a woman, then?]
35173P. 127, l. 920, Is it a Wild Bull, this?]
35173P. 142, l. 1195, And Pentheus, O Mother?]
35173Said I not, or didst thou mark not me, There was One living that should set me free?
35173Say; stand I not as Ino stands, or she Who bore me?
35173See I not In motley fawn- skins robed the vision- seer Teiresias?
35173Shall I feel the dew on my throat, and the stream Of wind in my hair?
35173Shall I set My whole tale forth, or veil the stranger part?
35173Shall it be bars of iron?
35173Shall our white feet gleam In the dim expanses?
35173Shall the hall Of Pentheus racked in ruin fall?
35173Shall things of dust the Gods''dark ways despise?
35173Should God be like a proud man in his rage?
35173Should the gates of Pentheus quell me, or his darkness make me fast?
35173So much?
35173So soft?
35173The daughters?
35173The woman''s?
35173Think thee now; How toucheth this the part of Dionyse To hold maids pure perforce?
35173Thou art glad?
35173Thou bearest in thine arms an head-- what head?
35173Thou fearest for the damsels?
35173Thou hast heard of Tmolus, the bright hill of flowers?
35173To stand from fear set free, to breathe and wait; To hold a hand uplifted over Hate; And shall not Loveliness be loved for ever?
35173To stand from fear set free, to breathe and wait; To hold a hand uplifted over Hate; And shall not Loveliness be loved for ever?
35173Wears it the likeness of a lion to thee?
35173What Dost fear?
35173What am I carrying here?
35173What array?
35173What art thou, man or beast?
35173What call ye these?
35173What could I but despair?
35173What dost thou bid me seek for there?
35173What else is Wisdom?
35173What else is Wisdom?
35173What flesh bare this child?
35173What garb wilt thou bestow About me?
35173What husband led thee of old from mine abode?
35173What like be they, these emblems?
35173What of man''s endeavour Or God''s high grace so lovely and so great?
35173What of man''s endeavour Or God''s high grace, so lovely and so great?
35173What of the city streets?
35173What portion had my child therein?
35173What seest thou here to chide, or not to bless?
35173What sought he?
35173What way Descended he upon thee?
35173What, can not God o''erleap a wall?
35173What?
35173When I look on thee, it seems I see their very selves!--But stay; why streams That lock abroad, not where I laid it, crossed Under the coif?
35173Whence have ye brought him?
35173Where in the wildwood?
35173Where is he?
35173Where shall I turn me else?
35173Where then shall I stand, where tread The dance and toss this bowed and hoary head?
35173Who espies us?
35173Who first came nigh him?
35173Who freed thee from the snare?
35173Who slew him?--How came I to hold this thing?
35173Who speaketh?
35173Who stints thine honour, or with malice stirs Thine heart?
35173Who was next in the band on him?
35173Who?
35173Why make ye much ado, and boast withal Your armourers''engines?
35173Why should we tarry?
35173Why went he to Kithaeron?
35173Wilt thou be led By me, and try the venture?
35173Wore he the woman''s weed?
35173Wouldst have them slay thee dead?
35173Wouldst liefer draw the sword and spill men''s blood?
35173Wouldst wreck the Nymphs''wild temples, and the brown Rocks, where Pan pipes at noonday?
35173Ye Damsels of the Morning Hills, why lie ye thus dismayed?
35173Yea, the Death that came Ablaze from heaven of old, the same Hot splendour of the shaft of God?
35173Yet cravest thou such A sight as would much grieve thee?
35173_ A Maiden._ Oh, where art thou?
35173_ All._ Still my prayer toward thee quivers, Dircê, still to thee I hie me; Why, O Blessèd among Rivers, Wilt thou fly me and deny me?
35173_ Another._ Who lingers in the road?
35173_ Divers Maidens._ Where is the Home for me?
35173_ Some Maidens._ Acheloüs''roaming daughter, Holy Dircê, virgin water, Bathed he not of old in thee, The Babe of God, the Mystery?
35173_ Some Maidens._ Will they ever come to me, ever again, The long long dances, On through the dark till the dim stars wane?
35173what is coming?
35173with women worshipping?
22900''Do you find it pleasant to stand there by the gate with a big sword?
22900''Here we are still fighting with the protectors of the old ignorance''; can not Wolsey persuade the Pope to stop it here?
22900''How dare you usurp the office of a general censor, and condemn what you have hardly ever tasted?
22900''I ask you, who can be more impudent or abject than I, who for such a long time already have been openly begging in England?''
22900''Just look,''he exclaims,''at the Evangelical people, have they become any better?
22900''Lives of saints?''
22900''Those studies can make a man opinionated and contentious; can they make him wise?
22900''What do you want from me?''
22900''What is exempt from error?''
22900''What is free of error?''
22900''What is harder than to write with aversion; what is more useless than to write something by which we unlearn good writing?''
22900''What is wrong with you?''
22900''What on earth has occurred to the man?
22900''When will that be?
22900''Where is gladness or repose?
22900''Why are we so precise as to our food, our clothes, our money- matters and why does this accuracy displease us in divine literature alone?
22900''Why, then, do you overwhelm us with so many books'', someone at Louvain objected,''if you do not really approve of any of them?''
22900''Why?''
2290050.4( 51.3)]_ Et peccatum meum contra me est semper_,[32] unless he has read the Greek?
22900And did not the judge say:''Paul, thou art beside thyself''?
22900And did their own times pass without being influenced by them?
22900And for the rest, my Servatius, what is it makes you draw in and hide yourself like a snail?
22900And if anything is said in them touching matters of faith, it is not I who say it, is it?
22900And in such a bustle and clamour about me you wish me to find leisure for the work of the Muses?''
22900And was his warning against the partiality for classic proverbs and turns applicable to anything more than to the_ Adagia_?
22900And what else makes youth so elegant?
22900And why is it the monks, above all, who contribute to the deterioration of faith?
22900And yet, were not Erasmus and his fellow- workers as leaders of civilization on a wrong track?
22900As early as 1501, to Anna of Borselen he writes,''Go to Italy and obtain the doctor''s degree?
22900But I, suspecting what the matter was, said''What, does he think it is the plague?''
22900But can Erasmus have seriously thought that the next generation would play at marbles in Latin?
22900But does not, then, Quintilian confess openly that wisdom is an impediment to good execution?
22900But once faced by the necessity of hard, clear resolutions, what would he have effected?
22900But perhaps you think it a great part of happiness to die amid one''s fellow- brethren?
22900But was it possible to keep to that course?
22900But what am I to do now?
22900But why do I pick out a few trifling examples from so many important ones, when I have on my side the venerable authority of the papal Curia?
22900But why does that name still sound so clear and articulate?
22900But why need I say all this to you, an advocate so remarkable that you can defend excellently even causes far from excellent?
22900But why should I catalogue the rest?
22900Could it be a union?
22900Did he know himself for one who is awkward when not bending over his books, but confronting men and affairs?
22900Did he not realize that the whole world had its eyes turned on him alone?
22900Did his mind at last give way too?
22900Did you smile your delicate smile, O author of the_ Colloquies_, while writing this?
22900Do they yield less to luxury, lust and greed?
22900Do we pity a man because he can not fly or does not walk on four legs?
22900Does he not ascribe weaknesses to himself?
22900Does this look like Erasmus in any respect?
22900Else on how many counts do I censure myself?
22900For did not he, too, write theological books, in which he tied such syllogistic knots as he would never have been able to loosen?
22900For did not the simple- minded people of the Golden Age live happily, unprovided with any science, only led by nature and instinct?
22900For has he not proposed a dispute, and submitted himself to everybody''s judgement?
22900For is not all that is done at all among mortals, full of folly; is it not performed by fools and for fools?''
22900For what else is love?
22900For what is more foolish than the game of procreation?
22900Had he come to Paris for this-- to experience the dismal and depressing influences of his youth anew in a more stringent form?
22900Had he not everywhere won recognition from friends and patrons?
22900Had he, then, lived a worse life in the world?
22900Had not one of Hutten''s rash satires been ascribed to him, Erasmus?
22900Has he been rightly called a precursor of the modern spirit?
22900Have others set him on against me?
22900He is critical, they say?
22900He permits himself to insert digressions?
22900Here they will exclaim perchance,''What have_ you_ to do with a mythical god?''
22900How can anyone envy_ me_?''
22900How could people continue to oppose themselves to what, to him, seemed as clear as daylight and so simple?
22900How dare you despise all but yourself?
22900How shall I be so impudent as to teach that which I have not learned myself?
22900How shall I warm others while shivering and trembling with cold?...
22900I was seized by the power of fate: what else am I to say?
22900If it is human to err, why should a man be called unhappy because he errs, since he was so born and made, and it is the fate of all?
22900If you decide not to print the_ Tragedies_, will you return the copy to the bearer to bring back to me?
22900Is it not still the Humanist who speaks?
22900Is it then to be a crime henceforward to have written verse, because_ they_ have not learned the theory of metre?
22900Is this the deepest foundation of Erasmus''s being, which he reveals for a moment to his old and intimate friend?
22900Must I comfort you or scold you?
22900Need I continue?
22900Not romantic virtues, if you like; but are they the less salutary?
22900Now they have thrown the images out of the churches and abolished mass( he is thinking of Basle especially): has anything better come instead?
22900Or did it rest in him too deep for utterance?
22900TO THOMAS MORE[47][ Paris?]
22900That is the question, and we shall not attempt to answer it: to what extent did humanism influence the course of events?
22900That the Church should possess Holy Scripture as correct as possible, or not?''
22900They are already nearly insufferable, when things do not go well with them; but who can stand them when they triumph?
22900To England, to Italy, or back to Paris?
22900To what purpose is obedience praised, if for good and evil works we are equally but tools to God, as the hatchet to the carpenter?
22900To what purpose should he require prescriptions who, of his own accord, does better things than human laws require?
22900V. TO ANTONY OF BERGEN[31][ Paris?]
22900Was Erasmus aware that he here attacked his own past?
22900Was Erasmus aware that in saying this he almost literally reproduced feelings which Petrarch had expressed a hundred and fifty years before?
22900Was Erasmus qualified to write about such a subject?
22900Was Luther right at the core?
22900Was he altogether unaware of the deepest mystery?
22900Was he not reflecting as to the role he was sustaining?
22900Was it a fit of melancholy which made Erasmus write those words of repentance and renunciation?
22900Was it not thought the apostles were full of new wine?
22900Was it true reality they were aiming at?
22900Was not Erasmus rather one of those people whom good fortune can not help?
22900Was not his failure to attain to still loftier heights partly due to the fact that his character was not on a level with the elevation of his mind?
22900Was their proud Latinity not a fatal error?
22900Was there, then, any objection to his works: the_ Enchiridion_, the_ Adagia_?
22900Was, then, Erasmus''s cause in all respects inferior?
22900Were not the Ancients critical?
22900What did they want grammar for, when all spoke the same language?
22900What do people wish?
22900What has Nature ever fashioned gentler or sweeter or happier than the character of Thomas More?
22900What has he been to his age, and what was he to be for later generations?
22900What have all the great controversies about the Trinity and the Virgin Mary profited?
22900What if I had painted a lion and added as a device''Flee, unless you prefer to be torn to pieces''?
22900What is fame?
22900What is it, that great commotion about matters of spirit and of faith?
22900What is the sense of this hateful swaggering with the name Ciceronian?
22900What is this but some fatal malady, consisting in misrepresenting everything?
22900What may Epimenides have dreamt?
22900What more defiled or more impious than these lax rituals?
22900What of his trust in good will and rational insight, in which he wrote the_ Institutio Principis Christiani_ for the youthful Charles V?
22900What prompted the Deciuses, what Curtius, to sacrifice themselves?
22900What remains of that happy expectation of a golden age of peace and light, in which he had believed as late as 1517?
22900What remains to him?
22900What was his positive importance?
22900What was there in the mind of the great Rotterdamer which promised so much to the world?
22900What were their names?
22900What would Erasmus have been without the printing- press?
22900What would the Turks say of our scholasticism?
22900When are we beside ourselves?
22900When he received the false news of the murder of Luther at Whitsuntide 1521, Dürer wrote in his diary:''O Erasmus of Rotterdam, where art thou?
22900Whence come these sorrowful downcast eyes, whence this perpetual silence, so unlike you, whence the look of a sick man in your expression?
22900Where had more good things fallen to his lot than in England?
22900Where is your wonted and beloved cheerful countenance gone, your former beauty, your lively glance?
22900Where to live when he shall be free?
22900Which country had he always praised more?
22900Which state, he exclaims, would desire such an absolutely wise man for a magistrate?
22900Whither indeed shall I not follow a youth so polite, so kindly, so lovable?
22900Who saw so clearly the social danger of marriages of persons infected with the new scourge of Europe, so violently abhorred by Erasmus?
22900Who stood up at that time, as he did, for the fallen girl, and for the prostitute compelled by necessity?
22900Who would not marvel at the perfection of encyclopaedic learning in Grocyn?
22900Why do people marry, if not out of folly, which sees no objections?
22900Why do we rather want to conquer than cure, suppress than instruct?
22900Why do we slight any word of Him whom we venerate and worship under the name of the Word?
22900Why do we so uncharitably persecute the lapses of others, though none of us is free from error?
22900Why do you hide your pain from me as if we did not know each other by this time?
22900Why does he keep regarding us, as if he still knew a little more than he has ever been willing to utter?
22900Why have dialectics, when there were no quarrels and no differences of opinion?
22900Why jurisprudence, when there were no bad morals from which good laws sprang?
22900Why not call it''drag''?
22900Why should any one desire true erudition?
22900Why so?
22900Why then did you not pour forth this marvellous piece of invective on the Bishop of Rochester[96] or on Cochleus?
22900Would Erasmus in years of greater strength have seen his way to co- operate actively in the council of the great?
22900Would his spirit of peace and toleration, of reserve and compromise, have brought alleviation and warded off the coming struggle?
22900Would they attribute these words to me instead of the lion?
22900You say, what is that to me?
22900You worship the saints, you like to touch their relics; do you want to earn Peter and Paul?
22900[ 117]''The lion shall roar, who shall not fear?''
22900[ 16 March?
22900[ 26] What could be keener or nobler or nicer than Linacre''s[27] judgement?
22900if all happened according to mere and inevitable necessity?
9313And why is he not here with you?
9313Are we to live on this great earth all alone?
9313But humbled as I am and worn with toil, how shall I ever please him? 9313 But what does he look like?"
9313Is it your voice, Syrinx?
9313Nay,said Pylades;"how can I swear?
9313Shall we sing together?
9313What are ye?
9313What does she possess that I have not in greater abundance? 9313 Where is your husband?"
9313Why do you worship Latona before me?
9313And are you deceived by this show of kindliness?
9313And what should her bones be but the rocks that are a foundation for the clay, and the pebbles that strew the path?"
9313Are birds careful?
9313Art thou slain?
9313But now what remains to us?
9313But where is your cockle- shell that brought you hither?"
9313Have you forgotten what the Oracle decreed,--that you were destined for a dreadful creature, the fear of gods and men?
9313Have you fought them for ten years without learning their devices?
9313Then, seeing that even the old and wretched clung to their gift of life, who should offer herself but the young and lovely queen, Alcestis?
9313What is it that you trust?
9313What were hounds to such as he, or nets spread for a snare?
9313Who could pass by such a marvel?
9313Who could remember to be careful when he was to fly for the first time?
9313Who has done thee any hurt?"
9313he roared then,"robbers or rovers?"
1636''But did I call this"love"?
1636Am I not right, Phaedrus?
1636Am I not right, sweet Phaedrus?
1636And are not they held to be the wisest physicians who have the greatest distrust of their art?
1636And do you tell me, instead, what are plaintiff and defendant doing in a law court-- are they not contending?
1636And if I am to add the praises of the non- lover what will become of me?
1636And if he came to his right mind, would he ever imagine that the desires were good which he conceived when in his wrong mind?
1636And now, dear Phaedrus, I shall pause for an instant to ask whether you do not think me, as I appear to myself, inspired?
1636And so, Phaedrus, you really imagine that I am going to improve upon the ingenuity of Lysias?
1636And what is good or bad writing or speaking?
1636But I should like to know whether you have the same feeling as I have about the rhetoricians?
1636But how much is left?
1636But if I am to read, where would you please to sit?
1636But if this be true, must not the soul be the self- moving, and therefore of necessity unbegotten and immortal?
1636But let me ask you, friend: have we not reached the plane- tree to which you were conducting us?
1636But of the heaven which is above the heavens, what earthly poet ever did or ever will sing worthily?
1636But what do you mean?
1636But what pleasure or consolation can the beloved be receiving all this time?
1636But why did you make your second oration so much finer than the first?
1636But will you tell me whether I defined love at the beginning of my speech?
1636Can I be wrong in supposing that Lysias gave you a feast of discourse?
1636Can we suppose''the young man to have told such lies''about his master while he was still alive?
1636Can we wonder that few of them''come sweetly from nature,''while ten thousand reviewers( mala murioi) are engaged in dissecting them?
1636Do we see as clearly as Hippocrates''that the nature of the body can only be understood as a whole''?
1636Do you ever cross the border?
1636Do you not perceive that I am already overtaken by the Nymphs to whom you have mischievously exposed me?
1636Do you think that a lover only can be a firm friend?
1636Do you?
1636Does he not define probability to be that which the many think?
1636For do we not often make''the worse appear the better cause;''and do not''both parties sometimes agree to tell lies''?
1636For example, are we to attribute his tripartite division of the soul to the gods?
1636For example, when he is speaking of the soul does he mean the human or the divine soul?
1636For lovers repent--''SOCRATES: Enough:--Now, shall I point out the rhetorical error of those words?
1636For this is a necessary preliminary to the other question-- How is the non- lover to be distinguished from the lover?
1636For what should a man live if not for the pleasures of discourse?
1636How could there have been so much cultivation, so much diligence in writing, and so little mind or real creative power?
1636Is he serious, again, in regarding love as''a madness''?
1636Is not all literature passing into criticism, just as Athenian literature in the age of Plato was degenerating into sophistry and rhetoric?
1636Is not legislation too a sort of literary effort, and might not statesmanship be described as the''art of enchanting''the house?
1636Is not pleading''an art of speaking unconnected with the truth''?
1636Is not the discourse excellent, more especially in the matter of the language?
1636Is there any principle in them?
1636Lysias then, I suppose, was in the town?
1636May I reckon the wise to be the wealthy, and may I have such a quantity of gold as a temperate man and he only can bear and carry.--Anything more?
1636Might he not argue,''that a rational being should not follow the dictates of passion in the most important act of his or her life''?
1636Might he not ask, whether we''care more for the truth of religion, or for the speaker and the country from which the truth comes''?
1636Nor, until they adopt our method of reading and writing, can we admit that they write by rules of art?
1636Now I have no leisure for such enquiries; shall I tell you why?
1636Now in what way is the lover to be distinguished from the non- lover?
1636Now what is that sort of thing but a regular piece of authorship?
1636Now, Socrates, what do you think?
1636Of the world which is beyond the heavens, who can tell?
1636Or is he serious in holding that each soul bears the character of a god?
1636Or is this merely assigned to them by way of parallelism with men?
1636Or that Isocrates himself is the enemy of Plato and his school?
1636Or, again, in his absurd derivation of mantike and oionistike and imeros( compare Cratylus)?
1636PHAEDRUS: About what conclusion?
1636PHAEDRUS: And is this the exact spot?
1636PHAEDRUS: And what are these arguments, Socrates?
1636PHAEDRUS: Do you see the tallest plane- tree in the distance?
1636PHAEDRUS: Had not Protagoras something of the same sort?
1636PHAEDRUS: How do you mean?
1636PHAEDRUS: How so?
1636PHAEDRUS: How so?
1636PHAEDRUS: How so?
1636PHAEDRUS: I have never noticed it; but I beseech you to tell me, Socrates, do you believe this tale?
1636PHAEDRUS: I think that I understand you; but will you explain yourself?
1636PHAEDRUS: In what direction then?
1636PHAEDRUS: In what way?
1636PHAEDRUS: Isocrates the fair:--What message will you send to him, and how shall we describe him?
1636PHAEDRUS: Need we?
1636PHAEDRUS: Not yet, Socrates; not until the heat of the day has passed; do you not see that the hour is almost noon?
1636PHAEDRUS: Show what?
1636PHAEDRUS: Then why are you still at your tricks?
1636PHAEDRUS: There is a great deal surely to be found in books of rhetoric?
1636PHAEDRUS: What are they?
1636PHAEDRUS: What do you mean, my good Socrates?
1636PHAEDRUS: What do you mean?
1636PHAEDRUS: What do you mean?
1636PHAEDRUS: What error?
1636PHAEDRUS: What gifts do you mean?
1636PHAEDRUS: What is our method?
1636PHAEDRUS: What is the other principle, Socrates?
1636PHAEDRUS: What is there remarkable in the epitaph?
1636PHAEDRUS: What name would you assign to them?
1636PHAEDRUS: What of that?
1636PHAEDRUS: What shall we say to him?
1636PHAEDRUS: What would you prophesy?
1636PHAEDRUS: What?
1636PHAEDRUS: Who are they, and where did you hear anything better than this?
1636PHAEDRUS: Whom do you mean, and what is his origin?
1636PHAEDRUS: Will you go on?
1636PHAEDRUS: You mean the living word of knowledge which has a soul, and of which the written word is properly no more than an image?
1636SOCRATES: About the just and unjust-- that is the matter in dispute?
1636SOCRATES: And can we suppose that he who knows the just and good and honourable has less understanding, than the husbandman, about his own seeds?
1636SOCRATES: And do you think that you can know the nature of the soul intelligently without knowing the nature of the whole?
1636SOCRATES: And how did he entertain you?
1636SOCRATES: And when he speaks in the assembly, he will make the same things seem good to the city at one time, and at another time the reverse of good?
1636SOCRATES: And when men are deceived and their notions are at variance with realities, it is clear that the error slips in through resemblances?
1636SOCRATES: And will not Sophocles say to the display of the would- be tragedian, that this is not tragedy but the preliminaries of tragedy?
1636SOCRATES: And will you go on with the narration?
1636SOCRATES: And you will be less likely to be discovered in passing by degrees into the other extreme than when you go all at once?
1636SOCRATES: But when any one speaks of justice and goodness we part company and are at odds with one another and with ourselves?
1636SOCRATES: Can this be said of the discourse of Lysias?
1636SOCRATES: Do you know how you can speak or act about rhetoric in a manner which will be acceptable to God?
1636SOCRATES: Do you mean that I am not in earnest?
1636SOCRATES: Does not your simplicity observe that I have got out of dithyrambics into heroics, when only uttering a censure on the lover?
1636SOCRATES: He, then, who would deceive others, and not be deceived, must exactly know the real likenesses and differences of things?
1636SOCRATES: I have now said all that I have to say of the art of rhetoric: have you anything to add?
1636SOCRATES: In good speaking should not the mind of the speaker know the truth of the matter about which he is going to speak?
1636SOCRATES: In which are we more likely to be deceived, and in which has rhetoric the greater power?
1636SOCRATES: It was foolish, I say,--to a certain extent, impious; can anything be more dreadful?
1636SOCRATES: Let me put the matter thus: When will there be more chance of deception-- when the difference is large or small?
1636SOCRATES: May not''the wolf,''as the proverb says,''claim a hearing''?
1636SOCRATES: My dear Phaedrus, whence come you, and whither are you going?
1636SOCRATES: Now to which class does love belong-- to the debatable or to the undisputed class?
1636SOCRATES: Shall I tell you what I will do?
1636SOCRATES: Shall we discuss the rules of writing and speech as we were proposing?
1636SOCRATES: Should we not offer up a prayer first of all to the local deities?
1636SOCRATES: Then as to the other topics-- are they not thrown down anyhow?
1636SOCRATES: Then do you think that any one of this class, however ill- disposed, would reproach Lysias with being an author?
1636SOCRATES: Then in some things we agree, but not in others?
1636SOCRATES: Well, and is not Eros the son of Aphrodite, and a god?
1636SOCRATES: What do you mean?
1636SOCRATES: When any one speaks of iron and silver, is not the same thing present in the minds of all?
1636SOCRATES: Who is he?
1636SOCRATES: Why, do you not know that when a politician writes, he begins with the names of his approvers?
1636Shall we say a word to him or not?
1636Socrates as yet does not know himself; and why should he care to know about unearthly monsters?
1636Then again in the noble art of politics, who thinks of first principles and of true ideas?
1636These are the commonplaces of the subject which must come in( for what else is there to be said?)
1636Was he equally serious in the rest?
1636We may raise the same question in another form: Is marriage preferable with or without love?
1636Well, the teacher will say, is this, Phaedrus and Socrates, your account of the so- called art of rhetoric, or am I to look for another?
1636What would Socrates think of our newspapers, of our theology?
1636What would he have said of the discovery of Christian doctrines in these old Greek legends?
1636What would he say of the Church, which we praise in like manner,''meaning ourselves,''without regard to history or experience?
1636What would they say if they saw that we, like the many, are not conversing, but slumbering at mid- day, lulled by their voices, too indolent to think?
1636While acknowledging that such interpretations are''very nice,''would he not have remarked that they are found in all sacred literatures?
1636Who would imagine that Lysias, who is here assailed by Socrates, is the son of his old friend Cephalus?
1636Who would suspect that the wise Critias, the virtuous Charmides, had ended their lives among the thirty tyrants?
1636Who, for example, could speak on this thesis of yours without praising the discretion of the non- lover and blaming the indiscretion of the lover?
1636Why did history degenerate into fable?
1636Why did poetry droop and languish?
1636Why did the physical sciences never arrive at any true knowledge or make any real progress?
1636Why did words lose their power of expression?
1636Why do I say so?
1636Why do you not proceed?
1636Why should the next topic follow next in order, or any other topic?
1636Why were ages of external greatness and magnificence attended by all the signs of decay in the human mind which are possible?
1636Will he not choose a beloved who is delicate rather than sturdy and strong?
1636Would he not have asked of us, or rather is he not asking of us, Whether we have ceased to prefer appearances to reality?
1636Would they not have a right to laugh at us?
1636Yes; but is not even a ridiculous friend better than a cunning enemy?
1636and are they both equally self- moving and constructed on the same threefold principle?
1636and will not Acumenus say the same of medicine to the would- be physician?
1636or, whether the''select wise''are not''the many''after all?
1579''But how is this?''
1579After the return of Menexenus, Socrates, at the request of Lysis, asks him a new question:''What is friendship?
1579Am I not right?
1579And also the vessel which contains the wine?
1579And another disputed point is, which is the fairer?
1579And are they right in saying this?
1579And can he who is not loved be a friend?
1579And did you ever behave ill to your father or your mother?
1579And disease is an enemy?
1579And disease is an evil?
1579And do they entrust their property to him rather than to you?
1579And do they esteem a slave of more value than you who are their son?
1579And do they then permit you to do what you like, and never rebuke you or hinder you from doing what you desire?
1579And do they trust a hireling more than you?
1579And does not this seem to put us in the right way?
1579And everything in which we appear to him to be wiser than himself or his son he will commit to us?
1579And friends they can not be, unless they value one another?
1579And has he a motive and object in being a friend, or has he no motive and object?
1579And have we not admitted already that the friend loves something for a reason?
1579And have you not also met with the treatises of philosophers who say that like must love like?
1579And he is in want of that of which he is deprived?
1579And he is the friend of the physician because of disease, and for the sake of health?
1579And he who loves not is not a lover or friend?
1579And he who wants nothing will desire nothing?
1579And health is also dear?
1579And if dear, then dear for the sake of something?
1579And if neither can be of any use to the other, how can they be loved by one another?
1579And in like manner thirst or any similar desire may sometimes be a good and sometimes an evil to us, and sometimes neither one nor the other?
1579And in matters of which you have as yet no knowledge, can you have any conceit of knowledge?
1579And is he a slave or a free man?
1579And is he a slave?
1579And is health a friend, or not a friend?
1579And is the object which makes him a friend, dear to him, or neither dear nor hateful to him?
1579And may not the same be said of the friend?
1579And must not a man love that which he desires and affects?
1579And shall we be friends to others, and will any others love us, in as far as we are useless to them?
1579And shall we further say that the good is congenial, and the evil uncongenial to every one?
1579And sickness is an evil, and the art of medicine a good and useful thing?
1579And surely this object must also be dear, as is implied in our previous admissions?
1579And that of which he is in want is dear to him?
1579And that something dear involves something else dear?
1579And the body is compelled by reason of disease to court and make friends of the art of medicine?
1579And the good is loved for the sake of the evil?
1579And the hated one, and not the hater, is the enemy?
1579And the hater will be the enemy of that which is hated?
1579And the more vain- glorious they are, the more difficult is the capture of them?
1579And the same of thirst and the other desires,--that they will remain, but will not be evil because evil has perished?
1579And there is Ctesippus himself: do you see him?
1579And we shall be allowed to throw in salt by handfuls, whereas the son will not be allowed to put in as much as he can take up between his fingers?
1579And what does he do with you?
1579And what is this building, I asked; and what sort of entertainment have you?
1579And what of health?
1579And which is the nobler?
1579And who is yours?
1579And why do you not ask him?
1579And yet there is a further consideration: may not all these notions of friendship be erroneous?
1579And yet whiteness would be present in them?
1579And, if so, not the lover, but the beloved, is the friend or dear one?
1579Answer me now: Are you your own master, or do they not even allow that?
1579Are you disposed, he said, to go with me and see them?
1579Aye, I said; and about your neighbour, too, does not the same rule hold as about your father?
1579But I dare say that you may take the whip and guide the mule- cart if you like;--they will permit that?
1579But do you think that any one is happy who is in the condition of a slave, and who can not do what he likes?
1579But does he therefore value the three measures of wine, or the earthen vessel which contains them, equally with his son?
1579But if the lover is not a friend, nor the beloved a friend, nor both together, what are we to say?
1579But if this can not be, the lover will be the friend of that which is loved?
1579But is not some less exclusive form of friendship better suited to the condition and nature of man?
1579But is there any reason why, because evil perishes, that which is not evil should perish with it?
1579But now our view is changed, and we conceive that there must be some other cause of friendship?
1579But say that the like is not the friend of the like in so far as he is like; still the good may be the friend of the good in so far as he is good?
1579But see now, Lysis, whether we are not being deceived in all this-- are we not indeed entirely wrong?
1579But surely, I said, he who desires, desires that of which he is in want?
1579But that would not make them at all the more white, notwithstanding the presence of white in them-- they would not be white any more than black?
1579But the human body, regarded as a body, is neither good nor evil?
1579But the sick loves him, because he is sick?
1579But then again, will not the good, in so far as he is good, be sufficient for himself?
1579But then arises the consideration, how should these friends in youth or friends of the past regard or be regarded by one another?
1579But what if the lover is not loved in return?
1579But why should the indifferent have this attachment to the beautiful or good?
1579By heaven, and shall I tell you what I suspect?
1579Can they now?
1579Do any remain?
1579Do they want you to be happy, and yet hinder you from doing what you like?
1579Do you agree?
1579Do you agree?
1579Do you mean, I said, that if only one of them loves the other, they are mutual friends?
1579Do you mean, I said, that you disown the love of the person whom he says that you love?
1579Do you not agree with me?
1579Do you not agree?
1579Here, intending to revise the argument, I said: Can we point out any difference between the congenial and the like?
1579How can such persons ever be induced to value one another?
1579How do you mean?
1579How do you mean?
1579How so?
1579I mean, for instance, if he knew that his son had drunk hemlock, and the father thought that wine would save him, he would value the wine?
1579I said, may we not have been altogether wrong in our conclusions?
1579I shall not ask which is the richer of the two, I said; for you are friends, are you not?
1579I turned to Menexenus, and said: Son of Demophon, which of you two youths is the elder?
1579If he is satisfied that you know more of housekeeping than he does, will he continue to administer his affairs himself, or will he commit them to you?
1579In such a case, is the substance which is anointed the same as the colour or ointment?
1579In that case, the one loves, and the other is loved?
1579Is not friendship, even more than love, liable to be swayed by the caprices of fancy?
1579Is not that true?
1579Is not that true?
1579Is not this rather the true state of the case?
1579Is not this the nature of the good-- to be loved by us who are placed between the two, because of the evil?
1579Is that also a matter of dispute?
1579Is that good or evil, or neither?
1579May not desire be the source of friendship?
1579May we then infer that the good is the friend?
1579Nay, but what do you think?
1579Neither can he love that which he does not desire?
1579Neither can your father or mother love you, nor can anybody love anybody else, in so far as they are useless to them?
1579No answer is given in the Lysis to the question,''What is Friendship?''
1579Now is not that ridiculous?
1579Or are both friends?
1579Or is, perhaps, even hated?
1579Or may we suppose that hunger will remain while men and animals remain, but not so as to be hurtful?
1579Or rather is there anything to be done?
1579Or rather shall I say, that to ask what either will be then or will not be is ridiculous, for who knows?
1579Socrates asks Lysis whether his father and mother do not love him very much?
1579Thank you, I said; and is there any teacher there?
1579That I may make a fool of myself?
1579The sick man, as I was just now saying, is the friend of the physician-- is he not?
1579Then if you are friends, you must have natures which are congenial to one another?
1579Then nothing which does not love in return is beloved by a lover?
1579Then now we know how to answer the question''Who are friends?''
1579Then one half of the saying is untrue, if the wicked are like one another?
1579Then that which is neither good nor evil becomes the friend of good, by reason of the presence of evil?
1579Then that which is neither good nor evil is the friend of the good because of the evil and hateful, and for the sake of the good and the friend?
1579Then that which is neither good nor evil may be in the presence of evil, but not as yet evil, and that has happened before now?
1579Then the friend is a friend for the sake of the friend, and because of the enemy?
1579Then we are to say that the greatest friendship is of opposites?
1579Then what can be the reason, Lysis, I said, why they allow you to do the one and not the other?
1579Then what is to be done?
1579Then which is the friend of which?
1579Then you have a master?
1579Then, I said, may no one use the whip to the mules?
1579Then, even if evil perishes, the desires which are neither good nor evil will remain?
1579Then, even if evil perishes, there may still remain some elements of love or friendship?
1579They had another perplexity: 8) How could one of the noblest feelings of human nature be so near to one of the most detestable corruptions of it?
1579They will then proceed to ask whether the enemy is the friend of the friend, or the friend the friend of the enemy?
1579This we do know, that in our present condition hunger may injure us, and may also benefit us:--Is not that true?
1579Well, I said; look at the matter in this way: a friend is the friend of some one; is he not?
1579Well, but is a just man the friend of the unjust, or the temperate of the intemperate, or the good of the bad?
1579What do the rest of you say?
1579What do you mean?
1579What do you mean?
1579What should you say of a hunter who frightened away his prey, and made the capture of the animals which he is hunting more difficult?
1579When one man loves another, which is the friend-- he who loves, or he who is loved?
1579Who are you, I said; and where am I to come?
1579Who is Lysis?
1579Whom are we to call friends to one another?
1579Whom then will they allow?
1579Why do you say so?
1579Will not the Athenian people, too, entrust their affairs to you when they see that you have wisdom enough to manage them?
1579Will you tell me by what words or actions I may become endeared to my love?
1579Yes, I said; but I should like to know first, what is expected of me, and who is the favourite among you?
1579Yes, Menexenus; but will not that be a monstrous answer?
1579You do not mean to say that your teachers also rule over you?
1579You remember that?
1579You think not?
1579You think that he is right?
1579You will agree to that?
1579You would agree-- would you not?
1579and allow him to do what he likes, when they prohibit you?
1579and at the time of making the admission we were of opinion that the neither good nor evil loves the good because of the evil?
1579and do they pay him for this?
1579and may he do what he likes with the horses?
1579and may not the other theory have been only a long story about nothing?
1579and what can that final cause or end of friendship be, other than the good?
1579any more than in the Charmides to the question,''What is Temperance?''
1579but may not that which is neither good nor evil still in some cases be the friend of the good?
1579how can you be making and singing hymns in honour of yourself before you have won?
1579will you tell me, I said, whether if evil were to perish, we should hunger any more, or thirst any more, or have any similar desire?
10907But why do I argue thus, as if the cause of the patricians, respecting the priesthood, were untouched? 10907 For how could Hasdrubal and Mago bring up their troops without opposition, unless they had terminated their part of the war?
10907For what,said he,"did the boy Hieronymus ever do of his own accord?
10907For why,said they,"did not those who sent for them come themselves, since there would be equal facility of forming a junction?
10907Is it to be borne,said he,"that a mongrel African should impose restraints upon me, a Carthaginian general, commissioned by the senate and people?"
10907Shall we even be blockaded,said he,"in our camp, and die, with ignominy, by famine, rather than bravely by the sword, if it must be so?
10907A short time ago, what was it that gave victory to Caius Lutatius but expedition?
10907All turned their thoughts towards arms and war,[ and the general cry was,]"When shall we be permitted with arms in our hands to meet the Samnites?"
10907An unwarlike and unarmed multitude, shall I suppose?
10907And how most recently we sent him hence to lay siege to Rome?
10907And might not the same Publius Decius have been, with propriety, chosen to perform the public worship of the Roman people?
10907And though other assistance be wanting, will you have the hardihood to strike me when I oppose my body in defence of Hannibal''s?
10907And what is there left,"said he,"to a handful of men, surrounded by a multitude, in a valley hemmed in by a wood and mountains, except death?
10907Another would say,"Whither, or by what way can we go?
10907Are we afraid that the son of Hamilcar should be too late in seeing the immoderate power and splendour of his father''s sovereignty?
10907Are we then desirous that the Roman people should have and equip a fleet?
10907Are you unacquainted with the enemy, or with yourselves, or with the fortune of either nation?
10907But though they had not courage to sally forth from the camp, had they courage to defend it strenuously?
10907But what ground was now unsurmountable to Roman valour?"
10907But who is there among you, who has promised that he would open the gates to me, and receive my armed troops within the city?
10907But why do I call on you, who, with as much regard to faith as you are able to show, return yourself a prisoner into the hands of the conqueror?
10907But why do I charge those men with cowardice, when I might tax them with villany?
10907But why not compare the success of one general with that of another?
10907Can a citizen?
10907Can our country regret such citizens as these, whom if all the rest resembled, she would not have one citizen of all those who fought at Cannae?
10907Can the enemy?
10907Can we order a supply of infantry, as if we had any cavalry?
10907Can we say we are deficient in money, as if that were the only thing we wanted?
10907Could I conciliate Hannibal to my son, and not my son to Hannibal?
10907Decius, calling aloud,"Whither were they flying, or what hope could they have in running away?"
10907Did not the people create him with the fullest privileges with which any censor ever was created?
10907Did the latter perform his private acts of adoration with a purer mind, or worship the gods more religiously than he?
10907Do the Roman people disapprove of their legions being saved by an ignominious peace?
10907Do we expect to remove the mountains from their foundations?
10907Do you doubt, therefore, whether by remaining quiet we shall not conquer him who is daily sinking into decrepitude?
10907Do you mean to say, Appius, that the people are not bound by the Aemilian law?
10907Do you then, conscript fathers, pardon yourselves and your children, while you exercise severity towards such insignificant persons as we are?
10907Do you want courage to effect your preservation?
10907Do you wish to make trial of our valour by sea, by land, in a pitched battle, or in the assault of towns?
10907Does Marcellus now a second time with impunity assail us with a band of raw recruits and Nolan auxiliaries?
10907For from what source could they procure rowers, when there was no money in the treasury?
10907For what more could possibly be done towards appeasing the gods, and softening the anger of men, than we have done?
10907For what part had ye, conscript fathers; what part had the people, in this affair?
10907For who will protect them?
10907For why should there be any longer protraction or waste of time?
10907For, on going out to receive him, when they had scarcely exchanged salutations, he said,"Is all well, Lucius Volumnius?
10907For, setting aside only the splendour of the Roman name, what remains in which they can be compared to you?
10907Have the Romans sent any ambassadors to Hannibal to treat of peace?
10907Have you already forgotten at what a juncture we revolted from the Romans, and what were their circumstances?
10907Have you forgotten how at the time of the revolt we put to death, with torture and indignity, their garrison, which might have been sent out?
10907Have you, in short, ever heard that any mention has been made of peace at Rome?"
10907Having endured a siege for several days and nights, did they protect their rampart by their arms, and themselves by their rampart?
10907He said,"Why do I any longer defer the fate entailed on my family?
10907How could he, by his sole resistance, benefit the republic, unless his death would remedy the public disasters?
10907How long before the walls of Geronium, a miserable fortress of Apulia, as if before the walls of Carthage--?
10907How many Roman commanders might I name who never lost a battle?
10907How many fleets, generals, and armies were lost in the former war?
10907How often, and with determined hostility, we have sallied out against them when besieging us, and assaulted their camp?
10907How safe, think you, would a passage have been for nearly two legions?
10907How stand affairs in Samnium?
10907How was it that his brother had not opposed his progress or followed on his rear?
10907How we invited Hannibal to come and cut them off?
10907In the next place, has any individual of the five and thirty tribes deserted to Hannibal?"
10907In what manner standing in the way of liberty or the laws?
10907Is it a small thing that you take away my most ancient provinces Sicily and Sardinia?
10907Is it that the steel hath lost its edge?
10907Now, when their aim was Rome, the capital of the world, could any thing appear so dangerous or difficult as to delay their undertaking?
10907On the other hand, if he persisted in preferring to hold out against the siege, what hope could he have, shut up as he was by sea and land?"
10907Or is yours an excepted case, in which this peculiarity and singularity takes place?
10907Or shall I compare with it the defeat in Africa under which this same Hannibal afterwards sunk?
10907Or will you fill up the vacancy with another colleague, a proceeding not allowable, even in the case of the death of a censor?
10907Or, that the people are bound, and you alone exempted?
10907Shall we be able then to withstand three generals and three armies, whom Cneius Scipio with his army unimpaired could not withstand?
10907Shall we, therefore, some one will say, deliver up Hannibal?
10907Shall you return by purchase to that degree which you have forfeited by cowardice and neglect?
10907Some of the Arpinians and Romans recognised each other, which led to conversations, in which the Romans asked them, what it was they meant?
10907Spurius Postumius, if you believe that there are gods, why do you not undo all that has been done, or fulfil your agreement?
10907Still he persisted in his opposition, asking,"To what purpose were laws enacted, if they eluded by the very persons who procured them?
10907The Roman, whom Claudium, whom Cannae, did not crush, what line of battle could crush?
10907The matrons, wandering through the streets, ask all they meet, what sudden disaster was reported?
10907The only question is, whether he took this route to the city, or returned by it from the city into Campania?
10907The people having been asked according to this form: Do ye will and order that this thing should be performed in this manner?
10907Then what soldier is comparable to the Roman in the throwing up of works?
10907They said"that they had created indeed two consuls, that they had but one; for what regular authority had the other, or what auspices?
10907To the armed soldier, carrying nothing with him but the instruments of war, what in reality was impervious or insurmountable?
10907Was there any danger that the gods would give less attention to his prayers than to those of Appius Claudius?
10907Were they passable by a few men and impassable to armies?
10907What arbitrator shall I call in to judge of your resentment, and of my punishment?
10907What could he do who had scarce as yet arrived at puberty?
10907What danger could arise to any one from them, from a solitary, and in a manner, widowed woman and girls living in a state of orphanage?
10907What else are the Trebia, the Trasimenus, and Cannae, but monuments of Roman armies and consuls slain?
10907What else would you ask had you been plundered and stripped of your camp?
10907What else would you ask if you had been conquered?
10907What greater outrage could have been committed had Capua been captured?
10907What more, Roman, do I owe to thee?
10907What motive induced you to remove out of your province?"
10907What must have been the consequence, if his love of wine had daily become more intense?
10907What the eyes of all intent on him alone?
10907What third consul, what other army did they wait for?
10907What those so many right hands?
10907What will that numerous throng of freemen and slaves be doing?
10907What would you do if you had to die for your country?
10907What?
10907Where is that soldier of mine, who took off the head of Caius Flaminius, the consul, after dragging him from his horse?
10907Where is the man who slew Lucius Paulus at Cannae?
10907Whether do I appear, while declining the contest, to have fallen in unexpectedly with this dreaded foe, or encounter him in his track?
10907While these cliffs hang over us, by what road will you reach the enemy?
10907Who can call upon you?
10907Who can say, that he has been deceived by you?
10907Who then, do you think, would be content with a dictatorship of six months?
10907Whom would you, with confidence, create dictator, for the purpose of driving the nail, or of exhibiting games?
10907Why had they disturbed him, at that time of his life, if they intended to give the management of the war to another?"
10907Why not attack the cities and fortified places?
10907Why should I bring instances from antiquity?
10907Why should I mention what has occurred in this present war?
10907Will they be torpid amidst your madness?
10907Will they call to their succour an army from Veii, with Camillus at its head?
10907Will ye never want an excuse for not standing to the compacts which ye make on being defeated?
10907Will you be able to bear the look of Hannibal himself, which armed hosts can not sustain, from which the Roman people shrink with horror?
10907Will you singly attack Hannibal?
10907Would I return to my country, a citizen, and not considered worth three hundred denarii?
10907and as if we were not already in possession of one sacerdotal office, of the highest class?
10907and how, without fleets, could Sicily be kept in subjection, or Philip be prevented from entering Italy, or the shores of Italy be protected?
10907and should I withdraw thence, you will cross over into Africa-- will cross, did I say?
10907and since it is allowable to admit new allies, who could think it proper, either that no people should be received for any services into friendship?
10907and, that this city, these temples, and consecrated grounds, these lands and waters, were become the property of the Samnites?
10907do you now also regret that the war against the Romans was entered upon?
10907if his fierce and uncontrollable anger?
10907none of them know, that, whatever was the last order of the people, that was law?
10907or do ye choose to cherish hopes proportioned to your bravery?
10907or that we shall not soon enough become slaves to the son of him, to whose son- in- law our armies were bequeathed as an hereditary right?
10907or that your right hands are benumbed?
10907or that, being received under protection, they should not be defended?
10907or was it by pressing and besieging Luceria, and challenging the victorious enemy?
10907or what other miracle is it?
10907that private individuals should without repugnance furnish rowers?
10907to challenge him and drag him out to decide the contest?
10907what to the gods, the guarantees of the treaty?
10907what to the treaty?
10907what was the fate of the army?
10907who better calculated to endure fatigue?
10907who has neither provisions nor money?
10907who, with the office of interrex for five days?
10907will you take Spain also?
12582Again, when Rome was taken by the Gauls, whence was the city ransomed?
12582And even had you got the better of all these, would you bear arms in conjunction with the Carthaginians against your country, against your countrymen?
12582And what else do they resume when the mourning is over?
12582And when you, the husband, may wear purple in your great coat, will you not suffer your wife to have a purple mantle?
12582Are there now larger armies in Africa, more and better generals, than were then in Spain?
12582Are your blandishments more seducing in public than in private; and with other women''s husbands, than with your own?
12582As these two kinds are thus distinct in their nature, of which kind does that law appear to be which we now propose to repeal?
12582At first they only discoursed in private, asking what they were doing among people who were at peace with them, if there was a war in the province?
12582But what are they compared with what we endure this day?
12582But what are they in comparison with those atrocious deeds, that are daily perpetrated by you and your adherents, in continual succession?
12582But what have they done?
12582But whence has this concern for me so suddenly sprung?
12582But why do I plead the cause of those states, which it would be fitter that both we and the king should hear pleaded by themselves?"
12582But why do I speak of Capua, when even to vanquished Carthage we granted peace and liberty?
12582By what acts is friendship violated?
12582Can I call you countrymen, who have revolted from your country?
12582Can I call you enemies?
12582Can a war with a Carthaginian enemy be carried on with greater convenience in Spain than in Africa?
12582Can there be a stronger instance than Hannibal himself, or one more to the point?
12582Can you place any confidence in Numidians after having experienced a defection in your own soldiers?
12582Can you say this to the deliverers of Greece; to people who crossed the sea, and have maintained a war on sea and land, to effect its deliverance?
12582Could not each have made the same request to her husband at home?
12582Could the armies, the generals themselves, their dignity or their cause, be compared with one another?
12582Did not the matrons, by unanimous agreement, bring their gold into the public treasury?
12582Did we then approve of that deed?
12582Do you believe that these would continue quiet and faithful, if Philip should come over to Italy?
12582Do you seek to obtain the distinguished honour of having finished the Punic war?
12582Do you trust in the Numidians and Syphax?
12582Does not the reason occur to the mind of any one of you why those, who are not yet our allies, require more than he who is?
12582Equal, do I say?
12582For what rivalry can there exist between myself and a man who is not equal in years even to my son?
12582For what similarity is there between them?
12582For what will they not attempt, if they now come off victorious?
12582For, if rejected by the Romans, to whom could they apply?
12582For, what are they doing, at this moment, in your streets and lanes?
12582For, what similarity is there in the cases of those states which you have brought into comparison?
12582Had you possessed the same spirit, would the enemy have seen your backs?
12582Has some greater disaster been suffered in Africa now than had at that time befallen us in Spain?
12582Have they never before appeared in public?
12582Have your forces been diminished by them, or theirs increased?
12582He even relates one of their conversations, in which Scipio asked Hannibal,"whom he thought the greatest captain?"
12582How do they distinguish themselves on occasion of public thanksgivings and supplications, but by adding unusual splendour of dress?
12582How many instances must I produce of your having done so?
12582How then can you suppose we shall conduct ourselves towards the Argives, who are acquitted of having publicly authorized misconduct?
12582If of his own will he gave up so many allies to the ravages of the enemy, what objection can he make to these allies consulting for their own safety?
12582If so, for what offence on the part of your country?
12582If they esteemed him a good man, why had they thus passed a sentence of condemnation upon him as a wicked and guilty one?
12582If they had proved him a guilty man, why should they thus trust him with a second consulate after having improperly committed to him the first?"
12582In the late war, not to go back to remote antiquity, when there was a want of money, did not the funds of the widows supply the treasury?
12582In what manner shall I defend this?
12582Is it an ancient law of the kings, coeval with the city itself?
12582Is it one, without which our ancestors thought that the honour of the female sex could not be preserved?
12582Is it to solicit that their parents, their husbands, children, and brothers may be ransomed from captivity under Hannibal?
12582Is not the great difference which this makes proved to you even by the recent precedent of Claudius and Livius, the consuls?
12582Marcellus was moved by this consideration, and observed to his colleague,"Why not go ourselves with a few horsemen and reconnoitre?
12582On being asked by Scipio"who he was, of what country, and why at that age he was in the camp?"
12582On his proceeding to ask,"whom he esteemed the third?"
12582On this Scipio laughed, and added,"What would you have said if you had conquered me?"
12582Or, what is next to that, was it written in the twelve tables by the decemvirs, appointed to form a code of laws?
12582Philip, do you at last restore to us Pharsalus and Larissa, with Cremaste, Echinus, and Thebes in Phthiotis?"
12582Scipio then asked,"to whom he gave the second place?"
12582Shall our children wear gowns bordered with purple?
12582Shall we men have the use of purple, wearing the purple- bordered gown in magistracies and priests''offices?
12582Shall we ourselves, with our own arms, defend, against the Roman forces, the cities that will be attacked?
12582Shall we then at length send for you, our consul, out of Africa, as we formerly sent for Quintus Fulvius from Capua?
12582Shall your horse be more splendidly caparisoned than your wife is clothed?
12582That, as soon as they shall see a Roman army in Greece, they will turn away to that government to which they have been accustomed?
12582The question is, Whether you must transport your legions to Macedonia, or admit the enemy into Italy?
12582This the king refused; and on Quinctius asking him,"Whom do you fear?"
12582This would hurt the feelings even of men, and what do you think must be its effect on those of weak women, whom even trifles can disturb?
12582Us, do I say?
12582Villius then asked, whether they chose that he should consider himself as having come to friends, or to enemies?
12582Was it your purpose to hold Sucro as a place of abode?
12582Was my age then more mature for conducting a war than now?
12582Well, but you say, though all these things were so, Romans, how do they concern you?
12582What alteration has last night, what on this day, produced?
12582What called forth the Licinian law, restricting estates to five hundred acres, but the unbounded desire for enlarging estates?
12582What circumstances induce me to believe that Philip may be brought to a union with us?
12582What difference is there, as a demonstration of fear, between this and his shutting himself up within the walls of a city to stand a siege?
12582What duty of a commander had he ever discharged?
12582What else do they lay aside when in mourning, except their gold and purple?
12582What grief, what resentment instigated you?
12582What motive, that even common decency will allow to be mentioned, is pretended for this female insurrection?
12582What new thing, let me ask, have the matrons done in coming out into public in a body on an occasion which nearly concerns themselves?
12582What panic was this?
12582What shall we say when we consider that in Africa also both parties will be liable to the chances of war?
12582What sudden forgetfulness of who you are, and who the persons with whom you were fighting, took possession of your minds?
12582What terror?
12582What the Cincian law, concerning gifts and presents, but that the plebeians[1] had become vassals and tributaries to the senate?
12582What the Roman people, when, taking the command from the tribunes appointed by their suffrages, you conferred it on private men?
12582What, but arguing, some in support of the motion of the plebeian tribunes; others, for the repeal of the law?
12582What, therefore, was the result, conscript fathers?
12582What, think you, was the reason?
12582Why Locris and Phocis?
12582Why are not slaves brought to serve in the army?
12582Why do not I make a figure, distinguished with gold and purple?
12582Why do not we, private subjects, supply rowers as we did then?
12582Why do we contract for public works for ready money?
12582Why do you send yearly to Syracuse, and other Grecian cities of Sicily, a praetor, vested with sovereign power, and attended by his rods and axes?
12582Why does he at present suffer Elatia to be besieged?
12582Why so many cities of Thessaly?
12582Why, on this showing, has he suffered Eretria and Carystus to be taken?
12582Will you then, I pray, have more power in Africa and alone, or here, with your own and your colleague''s army united?
12582Would they have carried off a standard from any company or cohort?
12582Would you rather have drawn away Hamilcar from Drepanum and Eryx than have expelled the Carthaginians and Hannibal from Italy?
12582Would you wish that Africa should rule Italy, and Carthage the city of Rome?
12582Yet how can I give them an answer, unless by a decree of yours?
12582and, therefore, have we also reason to fear, that, together with it, we should repeal the modesty and chastity of our females?
12582if I were dead, was the state to expire with me?
12582if the war was terminated and the province completely subdued, why were they not conveyed back into Italy?
12582or soldiers, who have rejected the command and authority of your general, and violated the solemn obligation of your oath?
12582to leave no obligation, divine or human, unviolated?
12582to revolt from the Roman people and join the Ilergetians?
12582was the empire of the Roman people to fall with me?
12582whom they ordered to grant that peace, and whom to conduct the army out of Africa?
7990Quis erat hujus( Syllae) imperii minister? 7990 Will you not, then, awake to action?
7990--_Quis autem amicior, quam frater fratri?_"[ Greek:_ Nomiz adelphous tous alaethinous philous_] Menander."
7990Am I of opinion, then, you will ask, that the conspirators should be set free, and that the army of Catiline should thus be increased?
7990And what is understood in French by prudence?
7990And who can be a greater friend than one brother to another?
7990But how does it weaken the body?
7990But some will ask me,''What course of conduct, then, would you advise us to pursue?''
7990But who are these that have thus taken the government into their hands?
7990But who is the god of faith?
7990But who it may be asked, will blame any severity that shall be decreed against these parricides[247] of their country?
7990Could I go, indeed, to any place where there are not abundance of hostile monuments of my ancestors?
7990Have there not been other men of whom the same may be said, as Mirabeau, for example?
7990In addition, he gave him this verbal message:"Since he was declared an enemy by the senate, for what reason should he reject the assistance of slaves?
7990In such a case, does any one talk to me of gentleness and compassion?
7990Of mutual trust, or concord, what hope is there?
7990Or was it because scourging is a severer penalty than death?
7990Quis nisi Catilina jam in omne facinus manus exercens?"
7990Sed cur oratio ejus tam apta et composita suprà  , c. 20 refertur?
7990Sed quis talia ab historico exegerit?
7990Shall I go to nations and kings, who, from our friendship with Rome, are all hostile to my family?
7990Shall our family, then, never be at peace?
7990Shall we always be harassed with war, bloodshed, and exile?
7990That noble youth suffered for excess of bravery; and do you hesitate what sentence to pass on the most inhuman of traitors?
7990To such indignities, O bravest of men, how long will you submit?
7990Unhappy that I am, to what place, rather than another, shall I betake myself?
7990Was it because the Porcian law[245] forbids it?
7990Was it intended to render you indignant at the conspiracy?
7990What can this impious av''rice stay?
7990What then is left, except your arms, that can make an impression upon him?
7990Which of the two do you believe?"
7990Why should centurions only have been selected, and not common soldiers as well as their officers?
7990Will any one, who, has ever been at enmity with you, take pity upon me?
7990With feelings so opposite, can peace or friendship subsist between you?
7990Yet what can be too severe, or too harsh, toward men convicted of such an offense?
7990[ 141] The parents and children of the soldiers, etc.-- Quid quod usque proximos Revellis agri terminos, et ultra Limites clientium Salis avarus?
7990[ 243] Yet his proposal appears to me, I will not say cruel( for what can be cruel that is directed against such characters?
7990[ 266] As to Gabinius, Slatilius, Coeparius, why should I make any remark upon them?
7990[ 33] And who can be a greater friend than one brother to another?
7990[ 33] Or what stranger will you find faithful, if you are at enmity with your own family?
7990[ 51] What course can I now take?
7990was such eloquence directed?
35451How can Medea dream of asking that stainless land to shelter her crimes? 35451 O Zeus, O Earth, O Light:"The cry of a bride forlorn Heard ye, and wailing born Of lost delight?

35451Doth it call No tears?
35451Fond woman, why wilt empty thus thine hand Of treasure?
35451For whom hast thou in thy direst wrong For comfort?
35451Had thy days run by unseen On that last edge of the world, where then had been The story of great Medea?
35451Hast thou lived all these years, and learned but now That every man more loveth his own head Than other men''s?
35451Hath it been a very foul Death, prithee?
35451Have I counselled ill?
35451Have I not my children?
35451Have I not suffered?
35451He hath not dared to do, Jason, a thing so shameful?
35451He knelt, and groaning low, Folded her in his arms, and kissed her:"Oh, Unhappy child, what thing unnatural hath So hideously undone thee?
35451Heard ye the children''s cry?
35451Home?
35451How can any man, whose eyes Are wholesome, seek to rear his children wise Beyond men''s wo nt?
35451How said he?
35451How, who gives the bride?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451How?
35451I heard a voice and a moan, A voice of the eastern seas: Hath she found not yet her ease?
35451I must face the harsher task?
35451In that old room?
35451Insult?
35451Is some word of wrath Here hidden that I knew not of?
35451Is sworn faith so low And weak a thing?
35451It is but just, Thou smite him.--And that weeping in the dust And stormy tears, how should I blame them?
35451Know I not we are but exiles, and must go Beggared and friendless else?"
35451Mine own hand is so The stronger, if I have this plea to show Thy persecutors: and for thee withal The bond more sure.--On what God shall I call?
35451My babes, my own, Why gaze ye so?--What is it that ye see?-- And laugh with that last laughter?
35451Names have I Among your folk?
35451O Love of Woman, charged with sorrow sore, What hast thou wrought upon us?
35451O Zeus, O Earth, O Light, Will the fire not stab my brain?
35451O woman, woman of sorrow, Where wilt thou turn and flee?
35451Oh, Shall I not lift the slow Yoke, and let Life go, As a beast out in the night, To lie, and be rid of pain?
35451Oh, joy on thee, too, Aegeus, gentle king Of Athens!--But whence com''st thou journeying?
35451Oh, merry mocking when the lamps are red:"Where go the bridegroom''s babes to beg their bread In exile, and the woman who gave all To save him?"
35451Oh, say, how call ye this, To face, and smile, the comrade whom his kiss Betrayed?
35451One Pittheus know''st thou, high lord of Trozên?
35451One light?
35451One weak of hand?
35451Or is it thou He turns from?
35451Or shall man spill The life divine?
35451Or slay the bridegroom and the king, And win herself God knows what direr thing?
35451Or stealing past unseen To Jason''s bed-- I have a blade made keen For that-- stab, breast to breast, that wedded pair?
35451Or what thing troubleth thee?
35451Or what wrath Of gods, to make this old grey sepulchre Childless of thee?
35451P. 13, l. 190, Alas, the brave blithe bards,& c.]--Who is the speaker?
35451P. 31, l. 565, What more need hast thou of children?]
35451P. 8, l. 111, Have I not suffered?]
35451Say clearly what thus makes thy visage dim?
35451Say: now whither shall I go?
35451Scorn?
35451Shall I burn Their house with fire?
35451Shall it be A long time more, my children, that ye live To reach to me those dear, dear arms?
35451Shall the deep yawn to shield her?
35451Shall the height Send wings, and hide her in the vaulted sky To work red murder on her lords, and fly Unrecompensed?
35451Shall the land that succours all, succour thee, Who art foul among thy kind, With the tears of children blind?
35451Shall they trample thee again?
35451Since life began, Hath there in God''s eye stood one happy man?
35451Some passion sweepeth him?
35451Sons, did ye perish for your father''s shame?
35451Spurn me when I kneel to thee?
35451That cheek of royal mien, Where was it-- or the place where eyes had been?
35451That will I: though what words of mine Or love shall move her?
35451The woman would kill me?
35451Thou ancient treasure of my lady''s room, What mak''st thou here before the gates alone, And alway turning on thy lips some moan Of old mischances?
35451Thou art found in sin Most bloody wrought against the king''s high head, And laughest at the tale, and hast no dread?
35451Thou comest to befriend me?
35451Thou wilt not?
35451Thou: what has thou ever done To wrong me?
35451To do what thing or not do?
35451To those poor Peliad maids?
35451Until?
35451What beareth he of good To man, or glory?
35451What beside Resteth to tremble for?
35451What cause, old man?
35451What crime?
35451What dire deed?
35451What fearest thou?

35451What hath he done?
35451What have they to do, Babes, with their father''s sin?
35451What hopeth she of flight?
35451What is it?
35451What mad''st thou there?
35451What make ye at my gates?
35451What more need hast thou Of children?
35451What profit, o''er the banquet''s swell That lingering cry that none may heed?
35451What profiteth living?
35451What profits life to me?
35451What say''st thou?
35451What think ye of your father''s love?
35451What town shall be thine to- morrow, What land of all lands that be, What door of a strange man''s home?
35451What word did Phoebus speak, to change thy fate?
35451What word is this?
35451What would I with thy pains?
35451When the hand knows what it dares, When thine eyes look into theirs, Shalt thou keep by tears unblinded Thy dividing of the slain?
35451Where Earth''s heart speaks in song?
35451Where did she murder them?
35451Which I may hear?
35451Who looks for more in women?
35451Who?
35451Why batter ye With brazen bars, seeking the dead and me Who slew them?
35451Why call Thy curse on these?
35451Why clinging to mine hand?
35451Why hast thou taken on thee, To make us desolate, This anger of misery And guilt of hate?
35451Why longer tarry we to win Our crown of dire inevitable sin?
35451Why must thou to- day Turn strange, and make thee like some evil thing, Childish, to meet my childish passioning?
35451Why should I seek a war So blind: by these babes''wounds to sting again Their father''s heart, and win myself a pain Twice deeper?
35451Why then so wild?
35451Why weariest thou this day, Wild heart, for the bed abhorrèd, The cold bed in the clay?
35451Will our mistress be Content, this long time to be left by thee?
35451Will she creep alone to die Bleeding in that old room, where still is laid Lord Jason''s bed?
35451Wilt change that prayer, and choose a wiser part?
35451Wilt hunt me?
35451Wilt verily Spill with thine hand that life, the vintage stored Of thine own agony?
35451Woe is me, What shall I do?
35451Woman, is thy mind within Clear, and not raving?
35451Woman, what mak''st thou here, Thou from beyond the Gate Where dim Symplêgades Clash in the dark blue seas, The shores where death doth wait?
35451Would I be a thing Mocked at, and leave mine enemies to sting Unsmitten?
35451Would she but come to seek Our faces, that love her well, And take to her heart the spell Of words that speak?
35451Wouldst hear me then no more?
35451Wouldst love them and entreat?
35451Ye women by this doorway clustering Speak, is the doer of the ghastly thing Yet here, or fled?
35451Yet her eye-- Know ye the eyes of the wild kine, The lion flash that guards their brood?
35451Yet, though stricken sore, I still will ask thee, for what crime, what thing Unlawful, wilt thou cast me out, O King?
35451_ A Child within._ What shall I do?

14322What first flood of hate To loose upon thee?
14322What force was with him?
14322What have I still of wreathing for the head Stored in my chambers?
14322What last curse to sate My pain, or river of wild words to flow Bank- high between?...
14322What love that shall kiss my brow Nor blench at the brand thereof?
14322What must we do?

14322Who tended thee?
14322Who wrought thee any ill, That thou shouldst make me fatherless?
14322Who, that is clean, shall see And hate not the blood- red hand, His mother''s murderer?
14322Whom shall I seek?
14322Why didst render not Back unto us, the children of the dead, Our father''s portion?
14322Why dost thou keep thine husband ever hot Against me?
14322Why goeth not my mother straight Forth at her husband''s side?
14322Why is not he Who cast Orestes out, cast out again?
14322Why lurk''st thou by my house?
14322Will he ever now Come back and see his sister bowed so low?
14322Wilt softly hear, and after work me ill?
14322Wilt thou have it so?
14322With watchers doth he go Begirt, and mailèd pikemen?
14322Women?...
14322Wouldst thou dare with him, if he came, thou too, To slay her?
14322Wouldst thou fling This lord on the rotting earth for beasts to tear?
14322Wouldst thou lay Hand on a body that is not for thee?
14322Wouldst thou more?
14322Ye Gods, ye brethren of the dead, Why held ye not the deathly herd Of Kêres back from off this home?
14322Yea, and beyond, beyond, Roaming-- what rest is there?
26275A whole month the monarch entertained me;what was again the interest?
26275All feast from day to day with endless change of meats;why ask whence the viands come?
26275How shall I escape afterward, if I succeed?
26275Ill- fated man,she cries,"why hast thou so angered Neptune?"
26275No more honor for me from mortals or Gods,cries Neptune,"if I can be thus defied?"
26275Phæacians, how does this man seem to you now in form, stature, and mind?
26275Shall I drop into the sea and perish, or shall I still endure and stay among the living?
26275Telemachus was much the first to observe her;why just he?
26275Why art thou last to leave, who wast always first? 26275 Why dost thou a God ask me a God why I come?"
26275A foolish question has been asked here and much discussed: How did Ulysses know what his companions said during his sleep?
26275A great change in manner of treatment; why?
26275Above all, does Menelaus love me still?
26275Again the question comes up: what is it to know Homer?
26275An idyllic spot and forever beautiful; who but Homer has ever gotten so much poetry out of a pig- sty?
26275And indeed what can he gain thereby?
26275And what is the connection with the preceding portion of the poem?
26275And, Will he return home?
26275Are literal rocks passed by putting wax into the ears of the crew and by tying the captain to the mast?
26275Are they transformed men, or merely wild animals tamed?
26275As that father is not present the question arises, Where is he?
26275At once she recognizes who it is:"Art thou that wily Ulysses whose coming hither from Troy in his black ship has often been foretold to me?"
26275But after such a fit, he is ready for action:"when I had enough of weeping and rolling about, I asked Circe: Who will guide me?"
26275But can the mortal hide himself from the deity, specially from the deity of wisdom?
26275But for what purpose?
26275But if it be utterly rotten, what then?
26275But is not Ulysses himself inhuman and uncharitable toward his poor beggar rival?
26275But is this separation never to be overcome?
26275But the aid for such an enterprise-- whence?
26275But the singer is tired and sleepy; moreover has he not told the essence of the matter in this portion of his song?
26275But what else is allegory but this embodiment of subjective wisdom?
26275But what if he falls out with both?
26275But what is the attitude of the Suitors toward such a view?
26275But what is this thought?
26275But what reader ever found these few lines tiresome?
26275But where is this Syria?
26275But who are the Cyclops?
26275But who are these spirits or weird powers dwelling in the lone island or in the solitary wood?
26275But who has not felt that in the preceding division the three Greek heroes were under the inevitable penalty of their own deeds?
26275But who was the author of such work?
26275But why did Helen do thus?
26275But why should the Læstrigonians be portrayed as giants?
26275But why this blame?
26275Can not the other two adventures be derived in a general way from the experiences of the Underworld?
26275Can we not see Orient and Occident imaging themselves in their respective ideal products?
26275Can we not see that herein is an attempt to rise out of that twofold prison of the spirit, Space and Time, into what is true in all places and times?
26275Cunning indeed she has and boundless artifice; what shall we make of her?
26275Did he not see the limits of his world?
26275Did they get their knowledge from Egypt or Chaldea?
26275Did they not undergo all this severing of the dearest ties for the sake of Helen, for the integrity of the family, and of their civil life also?
26275Do they still retain their affection for their families?
26275Does he not show within himself a deep scission-- between his desire to return and his deed?
26275Does her end justify her means?
26275Does not the man at times conceal himself to the God, by self- deception, self- excuse, by lying to his higher nature?
26275Does she not thus announce to the much- enduring man that she is free, though under a good deal of pressure?
26275Does the poet hint through a side glance the real state of the case?
26275Dost thou long to see the eye of thy ruler, which has been put out by that vile wretch, Nobody?"
26275Doth he live?
26275Finally comes the demand: who art thou and why didst thou weep?
26275For has he not the proof in his own heart?
26275For is not the career of every true hero or heroine vicarious to a certain degree?
26275For is not the universal man all men-- both himself and others in essence?
26275Has a change come over the Goddess through this visit from Olympus?
26275Has he not negatived Polyphemus, who was himself a negative, so carefully and fully defined by the poet at the start?
26275Has it any connection with the other songs of this Book, or with Homer in general?
26275Has not the poet derived the noble Arete and Alcinous and institutional Phæacia from the savage Cyclops?
26275Have the Gods, then, nothing to do in this world?
26275He dares not kill the giant outright,"with my sharp sword stubbing him where the midriff holds the liver,"for how could they then get out?
26275He denies his own reason; how then can he rise after a fall?
26275He must have looked within in order to see his world; where else was it to be found in any such completeness?
26275He recognizes this descent to Hades as the greatest deed of Ulysses:"What greater deed, rash man, wilt thou plan next?"
26275How can we best see the sweep of these eight Books and their organic connection with the total Odyssey?
26275How could he, with his bent toward the godless?
26275How shall he know the truth of the reality about him in his new situation, how understand this world of wisdom?
26275How shall we consider this prophecy?
26275In fact, how can they have any unity?
26275In general, the question comes up: What constitutes a lie?
26275In such case is not the God also hidden, in fact compelled to assume a mask?
26275In the harbor of Piræus the hackman will ask the traveler:"Do you want my_ amaxa_?"
26275In the second place one asks very emphatically: Why this present treatment of the Gods on Homer''s part?
26275Indeed have we not just seen him in the fierce conflict between knowing and doing, which he has not been able to unify in the last adventure?
26275Indeed what else could he do?
26275Indeed what use is there of rising?
26275Indeed whom else ought he to find?
26275Insane laughter of the Suitors, yet with eyes full of tears, and with hearts full of sorrow: what does it all forbode?
26275Is it a wonder that Pallas, taking the human shape of Mentor, comes and speaks to him?
26275Is it not manifest that we have passed out of dualism into unity, out of strife into harmony?
26275Is not this a glorious starting- point for a poem which proposes to reveal the ways of providence unto men?
26275Is she justified?
26275Is she right?
26275Is such deception allowable under the circumstances?
26275Is the disguise of Ulysses justifiable?
26275Is the subtlety of Penelope morally reprehensible?
26275Is there to be no positive result of such bloody work?
26275Is there to be no return to the East and completion of the world''s cycle?
26275Is this test of charity, selected by the poet here, a true test of such characters?
26275It is certainly a product of early Greek poesy; can it be organically jointed into anything before it and after it?
26275It is to be noticed, however, that Pallas has little to do with Ulysses in Fableland; for is she not substantially negated?
26275Knowledge and suffering-- are they not the two poles of the universal character?
26275Lofty is the response of Ulysses:"O Circe, what right- minded man would endure to touch food and drink before seeing his companions released?"
26275Mark the words of Ulysses:"Woman, thou hast spoken a painful word,"when she commanded the bed to be removed;"who hath displaced my bed?"
26275Menelaus holds the Old Man fast, and asks: What God detains me from my return?
26275Moreover he was one of those who returned home successfully, can he tell how it was done?
26275Nor should we fail to scan her second question:"Do you not say that you have come hither a wanderer over the deep?"
26275Now what is this problem?
26275Now what will he do?
26275Now what?
26275One asks: Is not this imaginative form still a vital element of education?
26275Onward the wanderer, now with his single ship, has to sail again; whither next?
26275Our first question is, why call in a goddess for such a purpose?
26275Pallas appears to Ulysses,"but Telemachus beheld her not;"Why?
26275Pallas has at last to come and to answer his two troublesome thoughts:"How shall I, being only one, slay the Suitors, being many?"
26275Pass them the man must; what is to be done?
26275Prophetic Circe can tell all this, for does it not lie just in the domain of her experience, which has also been twofold?
26275She has to obey, for is she not really conquered by Ulysses?
26275She must not be seen with Ulysses; men with evil tongues would say:"What stranger is this following Nausicaa?
26275She takes pleasure in the exercise of her gift, who does not?
26275So much for Circe in her new relation in the present Book; how about Ulysses?
26275So the old Greek poet must have thought; was he very far from right?
26275Soon by the light of his fire he sees the lurking strangers and asks,"Who are you?"
26275Soon, however, we catch the reason of her conduct in the question:"Stranger, where did you get those garments?"
26275Such continual recurrence of the God''s interference with the course of events-- what does it mean?
26275Such is her lively admiration now, but what means this?
26275Such is the promise, has it not been fulfilled?
26275Such is this ideal world of Phæacia, still ideal to- day; for where is it realized?
26275Such was the supreme test, that of charity; how will the Suitors treat the poor beggar?
26275Telemachus is to see Helen; what does that signify in education?
26275The highest and the humblest of the social order are here placed side by side; with what result?
26275The old dispute as to conduct rises in full intensity: Does the end justify the means?
26275The present Tale seeks to give an answer to the two main questions of Telemachus: Where is my father now?
26275The question arises: Did Homer find those Tales already collected?
26275The question is, How can they truly get back after so long a period of violence?
26275The question of the hour is, How shall I get out of the difficulty?
26275The question rises, Why does the poet hold it so necessary to keep the matter secret from Eumæus?
26275The question, therefore, is at present: How shall this man come into the knowledge of the Goddess?
26275The reader naturally asks, will there be any return to the Orient after the grand Greek separation, first heralded on the plains of Ilium?
26275The rest of the companions were ordered aboard, they obeyed; off they sail again on the hoary deep-- whitherward?
26275The result is when the other Cyclops, roused by the cries of Polyphemus, ask him from outside the cave: What is the matter?
26275Then why should the Suitors injure the son because they have been wheedled by the mother?
26275There he sacrifices to the Highest God, Zeus, who, however, pays no heed-- how is it possible?
26275This fact we may accept; but the question comes up: Is Homer such a balladist and nothing more?
26275This test is that of humanity, of charity toward a beggar; how will the Suitors behave toward him?
26275Unquestionably a glorious ideal is set up before the Sisterhood of all time for emulation; or is it unattainable?
26275Was it a hostile act on her part?
26275Was not Troy destroyed because of a wrong done to the Greek Family?
26275Was there some intimate personal relation figured in this character which we still seem to feel afar off there in antiquity?
26275What are these shapes and why?
26275What are we doing now but trying to grasp Proteus in this exposition?
26275What can be the matter?
26275What did not Telemachus see and hear at Sparta?
26275What did these companions do?
26275What does all this mean?
26275What does he get?
26275What does it all mean?
26275What does this suggest to the reader-- this duplication of the threefold form of the Book?
26275What else can she do?
26275What else indeed has man to do?
26275What else indeed is Gravitation?
26275What experience has called forth such a marvelous character?
26275What follows?
26275What have we to encounter?
26275What hint lies in that?
26275What is the ground of such a marked transition?
26275What is the location of the Læstrigonians?
26275What is the outcome?
26275What is thy relation to Troy?
26275What men are here-- wild, insolent, unjust, or are they hospitable, reverencing the Gods?
26275What motive for weeping?
26275What next?
26275What reason for it?
26275What shall I do with this world of the senses?
26275What then?
26275What then?
26275What then?
26275What will Ulysses do in such extremity?
26275What will the Suitors do?
26275What will this discipline be?
26275What, then, is left for the poor mortal?
26275When did it take place, at what period during the struggle?
26275Whence did she obtain them?
26275Wherein does the negative nature of Hades lie?
26275Wherein is the escort by the Phæacians a violation of the divine order as voiced by the Supreme God?
26275Which is paramount?
26275Whither now does he go?
26275Whither?
26275Who are present?
26275Who can not feel that this touch is taken from life, is an echo of his own experience in some princely hall?
26275Who does not love this fealty of the old bard to the highest order of things?
26275Who is this Goddess?
26275Who is this stranger anyhow?
26275Who will recognize her?
26275Who, then, according to the theory, put these ballads together?
26275Why a Goddess here?
26275Why is he thus repelled by Family and State?
26275Why just that in her case?
26275Why not?
26275Why should he not be angry at the man who seeks to tame him?
26275Why should he not make a philologer and a professor the author of the Homeric poems?
26275Why then introduce the Goddess at all?
26275Why then regard them as Gods?
26275Why this change in the everlasting powers?
26275Why this difference?
26275Why this interference from above?
26275Why?
26275Why?
26275Will they answer the call of their wives?
26275Will they behave toward him as Eumæus has?
26275Will you still keep sneaking through the house by night to spy out women?"
19559Wilt thou,replied my lord,"King of this state, an exile''s treachery dread?
195597 O supreme of heav''n, What shall we say?
19559Ah, whither find my way, In words that have no issue?
19559And art thou come?
19559And for what?
19559And if not, is your plea blood for blood?
19559Are we not then fastidious to repine At such a life so furnish''d by the gods?
19559Art thou dead?
19559Besides, are they sure they are the stronger?
19559But how wast thou delivered From thy ungodly foe?
19559But the Chorus like not this graceless deed of grace: what ransom can be found for the overthrow of the lord of a house?
19559But_ Admetus_ asks how could he let a guest depart from his house?
19559By blows and stripes, or this unseemly life?
19559By poverty?
19559By riches?
19559CLYTEMNESTRA Heed not thou too highly of them-- let the cur- pack growl and yell-- I and thou will rule the palace and will order all things well?
19559Did it a middle nature share?
19559Do I not wail my brother, who is dead?
19559Dost drowse?
19559Dost slumber?
19559Each servant through the house burst into tears In pity of their mistress; she to each St[r?
19559Fate is resistless: shall sorrow then have no bounds?
19559Ha, ha, what dost thou, son of Zeus?
19559Have they not formed connubial ties to which No law assents?
19559Have they not gall''d with chains Their fathers through ambition?
19559His manner raises Hercules''suspicions that Admetus has been keeping something back:_ Herc._ Is it some sorrow which he told not me?
19559How bear thy mother''s death, Seeing her thus before thine eyes expire?
19559How can you plead thus while living in open guilt with him who slew your husband?
19559How find rest there, in the heavy woes to which he is now doomed?
19559How shall I bear To enter here?
19559How shall I speak acceptably?
19559How then discerning shall we judge aright?
19559How to my father pray?
19559I could reply if permitted.--_Clyt._ permits.--_Elec._ You admit the monstrous admission, that you slew your husband-- for justice sake?
19559If they are noble, as their port Denotes them, will they not alike enjoy Contentment, be their viands mean or rich?
19559If this be right, What need of darkness?
19559Is aught obscure, aught hid?
19559Is he a slave to be so rated by his own son?
19559It is a joy to thee{ 730} To view the light of heaven, and dost thou think Thy father joys not in it?
19559It seems even now his sandal Is sounding on its way; Soon is he here before us, And what now will he say?
19559Know''st thou aught besides my tale?
19559Must I not trust such oracles as these?
19559My king, my king, how shall I weep for thee?
19559Never could I think--_ Herc._ Will thou still lead a lonely widow''d life?
19559Not one to check?
19559Not thou, I ween: how shouldst thou?
19559Now what will they say who contend that the Gods care not when mortal men trample under foot the inviolable?
19559Or doth some god distract me with false joy?
19559Or if from them remov''d I hide her in th''apartments late my wife''s, How to my bed admit her?
19559Or sees she the light awhile longer, Our Queen, brightest pattern of women The wide world through, Most devoted of wives, our Alcestis?
19559Or where in solitary state, Mid thirsty deserts wild and wide That close him round on every side, Prophetic Ammon holds his awful seat?
19559See I my wife indeed?
19559See ye not as ye may, How Bacchus Pentheus''palace In wrath hath shaken down?
19559See ye these heart- wounds, whence and how they came?
19559Shall I Through this respect forbear to slay my mother?
19559Shall we pronounce by arms?
19559So, up with the famous foot, thou Iris, march to Olu[y?
19559The name of Orestes would suggest the proverbial friendship of Qrestes[ Transcriber''s note: Orestes?]
19559Then between our locks What can th''agreement be?
19559They have had their tossings on the sea, their exposure to the night dews till their hair is shaggy as beasts''; but why remember these now?
19559Thou alone Hast rais''d her to me; from the realms below How hast thou brought her to the light of life?
19559Thou live with me, who did''st slay my father?
19559Thou resistest?
19559To Lycia''s hallow''d strand?
19559To whom shall I address My speech?
19559Was this then human, or divine?
19559What charm, what potent hand Shall save her from the realms beneath?
19559What deem''st thou are thy brother''s thoughts?
19559What dost thou?
19559What evil dost thou indicate by this?
19559What have ye ever done but work out ill?
19559What is this strange presence in her own city, and who is this suppliant?
19559What joy for a wife equal to that of a husband''s return?
19559What man is dead?
19559What mortal shall declare?
19559What need of sleepers now?
19559What new obligation is this for Greece to submit to, that a father should die for his son?
19559What shall I say?
19559What shall I speak from heart that truly loves?
19559What shall I speak from heart that truly loves?
19559What?
19559When men are plunged in ills What gain can one who stands condemned to die Reap from delay?
19559Where should her youth With me be guarded?
19559Where will it cease at last, The mighty Atè dread, Lulled into slumber deep?
19559Where will it end?
19559Wherefore art thou speaking thus?
19559Which way shall I turn?
19559Who guards us If thou shouldst come to woe?
19559Who hears the wailing voice and thud of hands, The seemly woe of the maidens?
19559Who in Thessalia bears a warmer love To strangers?
19559Who is''t thou dost not know?
19559Who now shall aid impart?
19559Who shall the secret bounds define?
19559Who will perform funeral rites and chant the dirge?
19559Who, through all the realms of Greece?
19559Whose greeting renders my return Delightful?
19559Why not slay at once?
19559Why, then,_ Orestes_ enquires, did they not pursue her while alive?
19559Will you never learn that you are a woman and not a man?
19559Will you not learn by manners and by deeds To judge the noble?
19559Will you not then learn wisdom, you whose minds Error with false presentments leads astray?
19559Wilt thou leave us so?
19559Wilt thou not rise and speed?
19559[_ Noises repeated._] Dost snort?
19559_ 1st Semi._ To so precious a corpse could Admetus Give burial bare of its honours?
19559_ 2nd Semi._ Nay, why so confident answer?
19559_ 2nd Semichorus._ Not a soul is at hand of the household To answer our friendly enquiry-- Is it over, all over but weeping?
19559_ Adm._ And do I see my wife, whom I entomb''d?
19559_ Adm._ But wherefore doth my wife thus speechless stand?
19559_ Adm._ Dearest of women, do I see again That face, that person?
19559_ Adm._ How dost thou?
19559_ Adm._ I know thy friendly will; but how can this Be done?
19559_ Adm._ I touch her; may I speak to her as living?
19559_ Adm._ Is death alike then to the young and old?
19559_ Adm._ No more: What say''st thou?
19559_ Adm._ O, Gods, what shall I say?
19559_ Adm._ Time say''st thou?
19559_ Adm._ To this assenting is she not no more?
19559_ Adm._ Where with the gloomy tyrant didst thou fight?
19559_ Aegis._ And did they say distinctly he was dead?
19559_ Aegis._ And is it here, that we may see it plain?
19559_ Aegis._ Dost think I''ll flee?
19559_ Aegis._ Into whose snares, whose closely- tangled mesh Have I, poor victim, fallen?
19559_ Aegis._ Why dost thou force me in?
19559_ Antistrophe IV_ What mortal man then doth not bow in awe And fear before all this, Hearing from me the destined ordinance Assigned me by the Gods?
19559_ Cho._ Living and dead at once, how may that be?
19559_ Cho._ What herald could arrive with speed like this?
19559_ Chor._ And how equipped then doth she bid him come?
19559_ Chor._ But what if Zeus will turn the tide of ill?
19559_ Chor._ By spearmen followed, or himself alone?
19559_ Chor._ Did love for this thy fatherland so try thee?
19559_ Chor._ How could I less?
19559_ Chor._ Silence I''ve held long since a charm for ill._ Her._ How, when your lords were absent, feared ye any?
19559_ Chor._ Thy hands had he not bound them In halters strong and tight?
19559_ Chor._ Wretched Electra, how could''st thou sustain A sight like this?
19559_ Clytaem._ Dost thou not fear a parent''s curse, my son?
19559_ Clytaem._ Where is the price, then, that I got for thee?
19559_ Elec._ And am I so dishonoured by the dead?
19559_ Elec._ And does he live?
19559_ Elec._ But with what message art thou from him charg''d?
19559_ Elec._ Finds he with toil what life each day requires?

6370''Who are ye?'' 6370 And when the goddess perceived that I was silent and ate not, she said:''Why dost thou sit, Ulysses, as though thou wert dumb?
6370Nay,said Ulysses,"what is this that thou sayest?
6370Stranger, do these men treat thee well?
6370Then I made answer,''Nay, but who could think of meat and drink when such things had befallen his companions?'' 6370 ''Are ye traders or pirates?'' 6370 Afterwards came Telemachus, and spake to the nurse, saying,Hast thou given to the guest food and bedding, or doth he lie uncared for?"
6370And Arete recognized his clothing, and said:--"Whence art thou, stranger?
6370And I doubt not that were thou with me some one would say:` Who is this stranger, tall and fair, that cometh with Nausicaa?
6370And Penelope said again to Eumaeus:"Call now this stranger; didst thou not mark the good omen, how my son sneezed when I spake?
6370And Penelope said:"How camest thou here, my sister?
6370And Telemachus said:"Mother, evil mother, sittest thou apart from my father, and speakest not to him?
6370And afterwards she said:--"Why art thou so eager for thy home?
6370And as for Ulysses, did not I save him when Zeus had smitten his ship with a thunderbolt, and all his comrades had perished?
6370And he said to himself:"What is this land to which I have come?
6370And he spake to Ulysses bitter words:"Wilt thou still plague us, stranger, with thy begging?
6370And how can I cease to weep when my husband is lost?
6370And is not thy wife within, and thy son, a noble lad?"
6370And my father and my son, have they enjoyment of that which is mine, or have others taken it from them?
6370And my wife, is she true to me, or hath she wedded some prince among the Greeks?''
6370And she spake, saying:"Wakest thou still, man of many troubles?
6370And the Cyclops knew him as he passed, and said:--"''How is this, thou who art the leader of the flock?
6370And the vision stood over her head and spake:"Sleepest thou, Penelope?
6370And when I said,''How is this, my mother?
6370And when she had drunk, she knew her son, and said:''My son, why hast thou come into the land of darkness, being yet alive?
6370And when she saw the strangers she said:--"Who are these, Menelaus?
6370And when they had dried their tears, Telemachus said,"Tell me how thou camest back, my father?"
6370And whither shall I go myself?
6370Are the men barbarous and unjust, or are they hospitable and righteous?
6370Are the suitors come back from their ambush, or do they still watch for my ship?"
6370Are they that dwell therein fierce or kind to strangers?
6370Are they yet alive?"
6370Are we not met together that we may give gifts to this stranger, and send him to his home?
6370Athene spake, saying:"Why hath thy mother so careless a child, Nausicaa?
6370But I answered him:''Wherefore dost thou beguile me, old man, with crooked words?
6370But Menelaus was wroth, and said:"Shall we, who have eaten so often of the bread of hospitality, send these strangers to another?
6370But Telemachus answered,"How shall I speak to him, being so untried and young?"
6370But Telemachus answered:"Think ye that I will eat and drink with you, who so shamefully waste my substance?
6370But Telemachus made reply:"Why dost thou grudge the minstrel, my mother, to make us glad in such fashion as his spirit biddeth him?
6370But Ulysses answered:"Why askest thou this?
6370But Ulysses laid his hand on her throat and said softly:"Mother, wouldest thou kill me?
6370But Ulysses said to the goddess:"Why didst thou not tell him, seeing that thou knewest all?
6370But at the last he spake:"My friend, who was this, thy lord, of whom thou speakest?
6370But come, tell me truly, whose servant art thou?
6370But come, tell me where have you left your ship?''
6370But first, tell me true-- what land is this to which I am come, and what is the people?
6370But say, who shall bear the light, if thou wilt not have any of the women to go before thee?"
6370But tell me truly, is it long time since thou didst give him entertainment?
6370But tell me, how didst thou die?
6370But tell me, what news didst thou get of thy father?"
6370But tell me, who are these that I see?
6370But tell me, who art thou?
6370But the Phaeacians said one to another:"Who is this that hath hindered our ship, as she journeyed homeward?
6370But the old woman said, weeping:"What meanest thou, being an only son, thus to travel abroad?
6370But when they came the next day to Pylos, Telemachus said to Peisistratus:"Son of Nestor, wilt thou be as a friend to me, and do my bidding?
6370CHAPTER V MENELAUS''S TALE The next day Menelaus said to Telemachus:"For what end hast thou come hither to fair Lacedaemon?"
6370Come now, old man, and tell me who art thou, and whence?
6370Did Zeus send this sign to us or thee?"
6370Did a wasting disease slay thee, or did Artemis[ Footnote: Ar''-te- mis] smite thee with a sudden stroke of her arrow?
6370Did he bring tidings of thy father?
6370Did he not offer thee many sacrifices in the land of Troy?
6370Did thine own ship bring thee hither, and thy companions with thee, or didst thou come as a trader upon the ship of another?"
6370Didst not thou thyself plan this in order that the vengeance of Ulysses might be wrought upon the suitors?
6370Do not the suitors devour it?
6370Do the people hate thee, that thou canst not avenge thyself on them?
6370Dost thou not remember how thy father fled to this house, fearing the anger of the people?
6370Dost thou plot against the life of my son, having no regard for the gods, nor any memory of good deeds?
6370Fearest thou any craft of mine?
6370For am I master in my house?
6370For who could move away the great rock that lay against the door of the cave?
6370Hadst thou, perchance, a kinsman, or a friend-- for a wise friend is ever as a brother-- among those that perished at Troy?"
6370Hast thou not yet returned to thy home?''
6370Hath he heard any tidings of the coming back of the host?
6370How can she know that I am indeed her son?''
6370How can the gods dishonour thee, who art the eldest among them?
6370If it be Telemachus, what doth he want?
6370Is any one robbing thee of thy sheep, or seeking to slay thee by craft or force?''
6370Is he yet alive, wandering on the deep, or is he dead?
6370Is it an island, or a portion of the mainland?"
6370Is my husband yet alive?"
6370Is not this thy house?
6370Is this the gathering of a clan, or a wedding feast?"
6370Just now I seemed to hear the voice of nymphs[ Footnote: nymphs, spirits of the woods and waters], or am I near the dwellings of men?"
6370Knoweth Queen Penelope of thy coming, or shall I send a messenger to tell her?"
6370Much did I wonder to see him, and I asked,''How comest thou hither, Elpenor, to the land of darkness?
6370Much did they wonder to see me, saying,''What evil power has hindered thee, that thou didst not reach thy country and home?''
6370Nay, but that may not be, for have I not sworn the great oath that binds the gods?''
6370Or came he on some matter of his own?
6370Sail ye over the seas for trade, or as pirates that wander at hazard of their lives?"
6370Shall I pass in a raft over the dreadful sea, over which even ships go not without harm?
6370Shall we keep them here, or send them to another?"
6370Shall we twain be able to make war upon them or must we get the help of others?"
6370So the nurse brought the settle and the fleece, and Ulysses sat him down; and Penelope spake, saying:"Stranger, I will ask thee first who art thou?
6370Some put trust in men, yet men are weaker than the gods; why trustest not thou in me?
6370Telemachus spake to him, saying:"What news is there in the city?
6370Tell me now which of the gods have I offended, and how shall I contrive to return to my own home?''
6370Tell me now which of the gods hindereth me, and how I may return across the sea?''
6370Tell me this also: is this, indeed, the land of Ithaca to which I am come?
6370Tell me truly, therefore; knowest thou anything thyself about my father, or hast thou heard anything from another?"
6370Tell me, who is this stranger that came but just now to thy house?
6370That thy husband will return no more, when he is even now in his own house?
6370The sickness which great Zeus may send, who can avoid?
6370Then Calypso said to Hermes:"Wherefore hast thou come hither, Hermes of the golden wand?
6370Then Laodamas said to Ulysses,"Wilt thou not try thy skill in some game, and put away the trouble from thy heart?"
6370Then Ulysses asked her:"My child, canst thou tell me where dwells Alcinous?
6370Then answered Telemachus:"How can I send away against her will her who bare me and brought me up?
6370Then he lay down on the rushes by the bank of the river and kissed the earth, thinking within himself:"What now shall I do?
6370Then he ran to his father and said,"Shall I fetch arms for us and our helpers?"
6370Then said Antinous:"How is this, thou braggart, that thou fearest this old man, all woebegone as he is?"
6370Then said Ulysses:"But why dost thou bear with these men?
6370Then she called to her maidens:"What mean ye to flee when ye see a man?
6370Then she caught me by the knees, and cried aloud:''Who art thou?
6370Then spake Athene to Zeus:"Tell me, my father, what dost thou purpose in thy heart?
6370Then the nurse spake, saying:"What is that thou sayest?
6370To her Zeus made answer:"What is this that thou sayest?
6370To her Zeus made answer:"Why dost thou inquire this thing of me?
6370To her Zeus, the father of the gods, made reply:"What is this that thou sayest, my daughter?
6370To him Zeus made answer:"What is that thou sayest, lord of the sea?
6370To what land am I come?
6370Was it not of thy contriving that Ulysses slew the suitors in his palace?
6370Was it that he too might wander over the seas in great affliction, and that others meanwhile might consume his goods?"
6370What is thy city and thy father''s name?"
6370What is thy race?
6370What meaneth the wanderer?
6370When they had eaten and drunk their fill, Nestor said:"Strangers, who are ye?
6370Whence didst thou come?
6370Where is thy city, and what thy parentage?
6370Wherefore hast thou such wrath against him?"
6370Whither shall I carry these riches of mine?
6370Who could tell the tale of all that we endured?
6370Who now hath called us together?
6370Whose orchard dost thou tend?
6370Will he be her husband?
6370Wilt thou perish, as thy father has perished?
6370Wilt thou that there be strife or friendship between these two?"
6370Would another wife have kept away from her husband, coming back now after twenty years?"
6370Would ye fight for him or for the suitors?"
6370], bade thee thus waylay me?''
6370and hast thou not kinsmen to help thee?
6370and how have thy feet outstripped my ship?''
6370and who gave thee these garments?"
6370art thou then but a phantom that the queen of the dead hath sent me?''
6370can it be that another of the gods is contriving a snare for me, bidding me leave my raft?
6370on the other, avenge me on this monster, when she would take my comrades for a prey?''
1173And are we two not come together,I continued,"for a closer partnership, being each a sharer in the other''s body?"
1173And may we not, Meno, truly call those men divine who, having no understanding, yet succeed in many a grand deed and word?
1173And what may these things be?
1173And what sort of works are these?
1173And why is this?
1173But what is there that I can do,my wife inquired,"which will help to increase our joint estate?"
1173Formal language,say you, Socrates?
1173Has got?
1173Is questioning after all a kind of teaching?
1173Shall I then have to do these things?
1173So I said to her,''Tell me, my wife, after which fashion would you find me the more delectable partner in our joint estate--were I to...? 1173 What art makes an ampler return for their labour to those who work for her?
1173What art welcomes the stranger with greater prodigality?
1173When will God moisten the earth,they ask,"and suffer men to sow their seed?"
1173is it synonymous with dwelling- place, or is all that a man possesses outside his dwelling- place part of his house or estate?
1173what kind of material, what kind of soil does not become manure when thrown into stagnant water?
1173what kind of people can be taught them? 1173 when she heard did she give ear at all?"
1173will he still need something further to complete him?
1173( Critobulus exclaimed); do you, Socrates, really believe that the king of Persia pays a personal regard to husbandry, along with all his other cares?
1173( I exclaimed): you mean to say you educate your bailiffs to that extent?
1173A thing so easy to be learnt, you say?
1173Actually you make them capable of rule?
1173After what particular manner do you practise the arts of war?
1173And are persons devoid of self- control in this respect the only people incapable of diligence and carefulness?
1173And by the same token land itself is no wealth to a man who so works it that his tillage only brings him loss?
1173And did your wife join in sacrifice and prayer to that effect?
1173And does this method of planting apply also to the fig- tree?
1173And how did you introduce the order she demanded, Ischomachus?
1173And how do you expect your cutting to root best?--if set straight up from end to end, pointing to the sky?
1173And how, in Heaven''s name( I asked), do you contrive to educate another in the skill to govern human beings?
1173And how, in the name of all that is holy, do you pick out whom you will and teach him to have kindly feeling towards yourself and yours?
1173And is there any one with whom you are less in the habit of conversing than with your wife?
1173And pray, what may be the reason of that, Socrates?
1173And should you merely sever the ears at top, or reap close to the ground?
1173And so I seem to you ridiculous?
1173And supposing another man''s house to be entrusted to him, he would be able, if he chose, to manage it as skilfully as his own, would he not?
1173And the others?
1173And the question which I put to you is this: Would you allow both sorts of soil an equal share of seed?
1173And what of the foeman?
1173And what when the weeds spring up together with the corn and choke it?
1173And when you have no such business on hand( I said) where in heaven''s name do you spend your time and how do you employ yourself?
1173And who, pray, are these lords that rule them and yet remain unseen?
1173And why is it that, for all their crowding, the ship''s company[ 9] cause each other no distress?
1173And, pray, how do you conduct your own case?
1173And, pray, what is your system when you need a bailiff?
1173Are they, too, incapable of being trained to give attention to field and farming operations?
1173Are you not agreed the corn- fields sorely need relief at such a season?
1173As I understand, you would limit the term to what we may call a man''s useful or advantageous possessions?
1173At this point[ 4] he took me up, observing: So what you now command me is to teach the art itself of tillage, Socrates?
1173At what point shall I begin then, Socrates, to revive your recollection[ 10] of the art of husbandry?
1173Because, you know, we agreed that a man''s estate was identical with his possessions?
1173But for ordinary people?
1173But let me ask you a question, Socrates: have those happy husbands, you tell us of, who are blessed with good wives educated them themselves?
1173But may I ask, is the planting of trees[ 1] a department in the art of husbandry?
1173But now, should you content yourself with merely heaping up the earth, or will you press it firmly round your plant?
1173But now, suppose you begin winnowing on the"lee"side of the threshing- floor?
1173But perhaps, Socrates, you have already passed sentence on us-- we are rich enough already, and not in need of any further wealth?
1173But suppose him to have learnt the whole routine of business, will he need aught else, or have we found at last your bailiff absolute?
1173But what is the proof of sober- mindedness in man or woman?
1173But what, Socrates, is your opinion?
1173But when it comes to sowing, what is your opinion?
1173Can you by eyesight recognise the difference between a dry soil and a moist?
1173Can you call that[ 27] anything but idleness?
1173Did I not tell you long ago that of all arts husbandry was the noblest, the most generous, just because it is the easiest to learn?
1173Did you ever see a trench more than three feet broad?
1173Did you ever see one more than three feet deep?
1173Do you put defence and accusation into formal language?
1173Does it not come to this, the hand needs practice( like the fingers of a harp- player) to obey the will?
1173Does your eyesight take you further?
1173Given they are self- controlled to suit your bidding,[ 17] given they possess a wholesome appetite for gain, how will you lesson them in carefulness?
1173Granted, you see: what is there in the matter that you do not understand?
1173How better than by lifting up and lightening the soil?
1173How can such folk be other than sorry friends and ill defenders of the fatherland?
1173How can you ask me?
1173How do you take pains to create a surplus which will enable you to benefit your friends and to gratify the state?
1173How is it, then, that I can know about the processes of sowing and at the same time have no knowledge about planting?
1173How shall we aid the stricken portion lying mud- bedabbled?
1173How shall we plant the olive, pray, Ischomachus?
1173I do not follow; by"light"do you mean weak?
1173I see, Critobulus, you wish to direct the discussion to the topic of slaves?
1173I understand you to say, Ischomachus, that the weaker soil must receive a scantier dose of seed?
1173IV But why need you illustrate all the sciences, Socrates?
1173IX Well( I replied), and did your wife appear, Ischomachus, to lend a willing ear to what you tried thus earnestly to teach her?
1173If I take your meaning rightly, you would say that those who enjoy your good things grow well disposed to you and seek to render you some good?
1173If a man knows how to use his friends so as to be benefited by them, what of these?
1173In planting, would you dig( what I may call) deep trenches in a dry soil or a moist?
1173Is it possible for a man devoid of carefulness himself to render others more careful?
1173Is it so certain that you have no knowledge?
1173Is it your opinion that these animals know more than merely how to tread the corn while driven with the goad?
1173Is there a subtle art in scattering the seed?
1173It appears, you hold to the position that wealth consists of things which benefit, while things which injure are not wealth?
1173It looks as if spring- time were the season to begin this work, then?
1173It seems, then, you and I and all mankind hold one opinion on these matters?
1173It would seem, it is the part of a good economist[ 15] to know how to deal with his own or his employer''s foes so as to get profit out of them?
1173Nay, now in Heaven''s name, once more, how can that be?
1173Now, suppose they are on the march; how are they to get along?
1173Ought the husband or the wife to bear the blame of that?
1173Perhaps you are ignorant how you are to lay the potsherd on the clay at top?
1173Pray, how may that be?
1173Pray, then, what sort of people have the privilege?
1173Precisely so, but now suppose the soil is light in one part and heavy in another?
1173Really, Ischomachus, I am disposed to ask:"Does teaching consist in putting questions?"
1173She did, however, put to me a question: Could I advise her how she might become not in false show but really fair to look upon?
1173So likewise as regards the processes of husbandry, think you the propitiation of heaven is less needed here?
1173So then I stepped up boldly to the groom and asked him,"Has the horse much wealth?"
1173So you wish me to set up as a breeder of young horses,[ 10] do you, Socrates?
1173Socrates replied: What say you then?
1173That the seed must be cast by hand, I presume you know yourself?
1173The fellow looked at me as if I were hardly in my right mind to put the question, and retorted,"How can a horse have wealth?"
1173The same things, in fact, are wealth or not wealth, according as a man knows or does not know the use to make of them?
1173Then all else( said I) you taught your wife yourself, Ischomachus, until you had made her capable of attending carefully to her appointed duties?
1173Then shall we say that a man''s enemies form part of his possessions?
1173Then what is to be done, in your opinion?
1173Then which are the arts you would counsel us to engage in?
1173Then would it not be more astonishing that she should have real knowledge how to speak and act than that she should go altogether astray?
1173Thus I addressed her, Socrates, and thus my wife made answer:"But how can I assist you?
1173Thus far the statement of the case would seem to be conclusive-- but what are we to make of this?
1173To begin then: You know that corn needs cutting?
1173To- morrow is a good day to commence a course of virtue, is it not?
1173Well then, a bed of earth must be laid beneath the plant?
1173Well then, supposing we begin to plough our land in winter?
1173Well then, what would you say to summer?
1173Well, I suppose you are aware of this much: corn is threshed by beasts of burthen?
1173Well, and what of those addicted to another passion, that of gain?
1173Well, granted the man is well disposed to you does it therefore follow, Ischomachus, that he is fit to be your bailiff?
1173Well, then, Ischomachus, supposing the man is now so fit to rule that he can compel obedience,[ 1] is he, I ask once more, your bailiff absolute?
1173Well, then, the next point: in the act of cutting corn how will you choose to stand?
1173Well, we shall not be ashamed, I hope, to imitate the kings of Persia?
1173Were it better for a man to choose and turn to sole account a single sowing season, be it much he has to sow or be it little?
1173What answer( said I) did she make, in Heaven''s name, to what you said?
1173What art more sweetly welcomes him that is devoted to her?"
1173What do you say?
1173What good will he extract from it?
1173What more can they know, being beasts of burthen?
1173What particular toil do you impose on yourself in order to secure good health and strength?
1173What say you?
1173What sort of thing?
1173What then?
1173What topic, pray, was that?
1173What( I exclaimed), can I believe my ears?
1173What, then, if I exhibit to you a third contrast, which bears on the condition of domestic slaves?
1173When, then( I asked), Ischomachus, how fared it?
1173Where would be the use of farming the land by help of such an overseer?
1173Whose but my own wife''s?
1173Would not that argue great lack of understanding in our two selves?
1173XII But( I continued presently), perhaps I am preventing you from going, as you long have wished to do, Ischomachus?
1173You agree there is some show of reason for letting in these gangs of hoers?
1173You have seen, I know, the sort of trenches which are dug for plants?
1173You know, I daresay, that in winter there are heavy rains?
1173You seem to say, Socrates, that money itself in the pockets of a man who does not know how to use it is not wealth?
1173[ 10] Are we to regard these as the only people incapable of being taught this virtue of carefulness?

1173[ 13] But now, what shall we say of friends?
1173[ 16] What reason indeed would there be for rejecting in the case of other plant- growths[ 17] what is found to answer so well with the vine?

1173[ 7] Or would your citizen serve on foot?

1173[ 9] Should you mind pointing them out to me with some distinctness?
1173and by"heavy"strong?
1173and that other portion lying naked to the roots and defenceless, how aid it?

1173how teach them growth in diligence to meet your wishes?
1173is it not that the gallant ship sails so swiftly?
1173now answer me this question: Did you ever see a trench less than one foot deep?
1173or are there others in a like condition?
1173or are there others in like case?
1173or are we to include all a man''s possessions outside the actual dwelling- place?
1173or even though possessed of all the qualifications you have named, does he still lack something?
1173or is there aught else which he must learn in order to play the part of an efficient bailiff?

6969Am I not justified in my anger against the slanderer, and in coming to my father''s rescue as if he were slandered by this charge?
6969And as he paid no penalty for that, what sort of an office has he now established for himself?
6969And from what kind of baseness do you think a man would abstain who grudges( giving to) those whom others pity?
6969And how are they to cease grieving?
6969And how could there be a greater wretch than he who, knowing that there were many at Phyle whom he himself had banished, dared to go there to them?
6969And that I use two crutches while others use but one,( why does he) not charge me that this is a mark of sound men?
6969And those whom the Strategi enroll?
6969And while he dared betray us in our success, what would he have done, if we had been unsuccessful?
6969And who of the other Greeks would have claimed to be equal in intelligence, numbers and courage?
6969And why should any one acquit him?
6969Are they not aware that they should speak about the question at issue?
6969Are they not those of military age?
6969Are you a metic on condition of obeying the laws of the city or doing what you please?
6969Are you not ashamed to have the thought that you should claim advantages, not from your services to the state, but from your unpunished deeds?
6969As if he had done no wrong?
6969Because I am meddlesome, and harsh and quarrelsome?
6969Because he has spent his money, and many, many contributions?
6969Because some one in a trial ever lost his property through me?
6969But how is it reasonable for you to accept the statements of the Thirty themselves, if they throw the blame on each other?
6969But in private troubles, when they see those formerly their friends leaving them in their distress, and their enemies exulting over their misfortunes?
6969But is it then reasonable that they grieve, as their children are dead, and the living are reaping the benefits of their valor?
6969But now if you set free those who confess that they have broken the law, would you not seem to be doing a strange thing?
6969But that I am violent and disorderly?
6969But that being in power in the reign of the Thirty I maltreated many of the citizens?
6969But that he will pay you if you spare him?
6969But who was he?
6969But, because you arrested and tried to kill us, do you not think that you should suffer punishment for this?
6969Come now, what would you do if you happened to be brother or son of his?
6969Did they take such walls as those of their own country which they dismantled?
6969Did you agree with those advising to kill, or did you oppose?
6969Did you lead away Polemarchus, or not?
6969Do you expect to escape death if you transgress the laws of which the penalty is death?
6969First stand up and tell me whether you are a metic?
6969For did they take as many arms from the enemy as they have taken from you?
6969For if I have spoken about the main points, why should I like him speak earnestly about trivial matters?
6969For if I have the disposition corresponding with this trouble, and conduct myself otherwise, how shall I differ from this man?
6969For to whom do we owe greater thanks than to these men before us?
6969For what greater sorrow could befall me than this, to hear such base charges in relation to such a father?
6969For what hope is there that others would wish to obey their generals''commands, when these very men try to screen offenders against discipline?
6969For what is the difference of which this man speaks?
6969For what speech or time or orator could adequately testify to the valor of these men lying here?
6969For what statesman ever thought of such a thing, or what lawgiver ever supposed a citizen would commit such an offense?
6969For what would a man do to those who were not connected with him if lie commits such offenses against his own relatives?
6969For who else was the author, if not you who deposed them?
6969For who in this city is more liable to punishment than Nicomachus?
6969For who was less likely to be a servant in these things than the man who opposed what they wished to be done?
6969For who would not feel alarm, seeing them gaining in importance in the war with each other?
6969For why should I find you of such a disposition?
6969He who has written for four years when he could have finished in thirty days?
6969How can it be probable that this man who never entered danger even behind others, should be foremost in action and so now be worthy of honor?
6969How should not a man be hated with reason by you if he put the same energy into being wicked that he might have used aiding you?
6969How then could you allow him to pass?
6969How then would men be more wretched than to be thought to hold the property of others, after loss of their own?
6969If he did not testify according to a plot, why did not the Boule compel Theocritus to give their names, and not to give testimony without names?
6969In the crises of the state?
6969In the time of common prosperity?
6969Is it on the ground that in relation to the state they have been unfortunate, but otherwise have lived with moderation and in an orderly fashion?
6969On account of his ancestry?
6969On the ground of his being a man brave against the enemy in many land and naval battles?
6969Or how would he keep secret engagements, if he thought it right to disregard the regularly appointed ones?
6969Or how would he make any useful law for the constitution, if he wished his country to be deprived of her freedom?
6969Or what vote do you think they would cast were it in their power?
6969Ought not, then, those doing this wrong to receive punishment at your hands when you kill those not able to restrain it?
6969So is it not evident that she knew well that he would not do his duty even to a relative?
6969So, seeing you have this opinion, who could not be induced to work and speak in behalf of the city?
6969So, then, in what way are you not their murderer, taken in the very act?
6969That he will improve?
6969That the defendant is a nobler man and from nobler family than I?
6969That there was justice in his accusation?
6969That we might not be killed?
6969That, having thrown away my shield, I am accused of libel by the one who rescued it?
6969Then because, as you say, by opposing you did no good, do you claim to be considered an honest man?
6969Therefore is he, who is the author of their death, not"taken in the very act"?
6969Thinking that we would suffer unjustly or justly?
6969To whom then was it less likely to be commanded than( to one) who happened to oppose them, and declared his opinion?
6969Was it not easier for me,( members of the) Boule, to break the laws during the Democracy than under the Thirty?
6969Were it not better for him to have died there rather than to come home to such a fate?
6969Were you in the council chamber when speeches were made about us?
6969What can be clearer than that my accuser is lying?
6969What charge have you against me?
6969What god would not pity them for the magnitude of the danger?
6969What man would not weep?
6969What opinion, gentlemen of the jury, do you think they who were deprived of their dear ones by this man would have of him?
6969What purpose have the prosecutors in disregarding the main point, and trying to attack my character?
6969Who has done less good or more harm to the city than he?
6969Who would not wonder at their daring?
6969Why do I relate this to you?
6969Why, then, is it not proper for you all to convict this man?
6969Why, then, should you be disgusted with men of this sort?
6969Would any one have been so utterly reckless, such, being the case, as to have done such a deed?
6969Would it be at all just for me to pay the penalty for the damage done by our public disasters?
6969Would it not be strange if, judging about the same offenses, you were more desirous to take punishment from the guiltless?
6969Would you acquit him?
6969and even more wretched?
6969but because I ride borrowed horses that he tries to persuade you that I am sound?
6969did you oppose, in order to save us, but arrest us, in order to kill us?

9610Did they not bring to crown your hallowed brows Garlands of ripest corn, or pour new wine In pure libation on the thirsty ground?

9610This night of mine Shall I in sighs employ?
9610Through weary marches over land, through wandering waves at sea, Armed_ cap- a- pie_, will that small god the hero''s comrade be?
9610Thy heart in guilt so bold?
9610To see his pale, neglected brow, And unkempt tresses, once so fair,-- They cried,"O where is Phoebus now?

27673How came death to her?
27673How came the all- knowing seer to leave it so?
27673How can I, when I hold Such clues as these, refrain from knowing all?
27673How cast it out?
27673How clear?
27673How else should he bear That fruited laurel wreathed about his hair?
27673How many years and months have passed since then?
27673How now, assassin?
27673How saviour?
27673How sayst thou?
27673How shall I hold this counsel of thy mind True?
27673How shall man compel his God?
27673How then?
27673How?
27673How?
27673How?
27673How?
27673How?
27673How?--Is there one of you within my pale Standing, that knows the shepherd of his tale?
27673If I might touch them, I should seem to keep And not to have lost them, now mine eyes are gone.... What say I?
27673If honour to such things be, Why should I dance my dance?
27673In my need Be false to me, and let thy city bleed?
27673In what way Came it to thee?
27673Is he fled to the wild forest, To caves where the eagles nest?
27673Is he in the house to- day?
27673Is he yet living?
27673Is it true?
27673Is life like mine a thing To cast aside and plot to be a King?
27673Is old Polybus in power no more?
27673Is that not Creon drawing near?
27673Is there in your eyes No pity, thus, when all our city lies Bleeding, to ply your privy hates?...
27673King, what was that?
27673Know and speak not?
27673Know ye not, my will Is yours for aid''gainst all?
27673Know''st thou not?
27673Let him fly, fly, for his need Hath found him; oh, where is the speed That flew with the winds of old, the team of North- Wind''s spell?
27673Look up, and answer everything I ask thee.--Thou wast Laïus''man of old?
27673Meet for mine ears?
27673Menoikeus''son, What message from the God?
27673Most gentle master, how do I offend?
27673My God, what hast thou willed to do with me?
27673My sister is thy wife this many a day?
27673Nay, but what is the message?
27673No message, nor None of his company, that ye might hear?
27673Not murdered?...
27673O fearful sufferer, and could''st thou kill Thy living orbs?
27673O great King, our master, How oped the one haven to the slayer and the slain?
27673O wife, O face I love to look upon, Why call''st thou me from where I sat alone?
27673O wife, why then should man fear any more The voice of Pytho''s dome, or cower before These birds that shriek above us?
27673O wild Kithairon, why was it thy will To save me?
27673OEDIPUS(_ to_ LEADER,_ who tries to calm him._) How can I hear such talk?--he maketh jest Of the land''s woe-- and keep mine anger dumb?
27673Oedipus''father dead?
27673Old Man, do thou declare-- the rest have thus Their champion-- in what mood stand ye so still, In dread or sure hope?
27673One new as our new- come affliction, Or an old toil returned with the years?
27673Or children-- born as mine were born, to see Their shapes should bring me joy?
27673Or how withal Find the blurred trail of such an ancient stain?
27673Or in this town?
27673Or of some secret sort?
27673Or, better, to himself if that may be?
27673P. 25, l. 437, Who were they?]
27673Robbers?...
27673Rode he full of youth and might?
27673Saw''st ever there this man thou seëst now?
27673Say then: thou gavest me once, there in the wild, A babe to rear far off as mine own child?
27673Says he hath witnesses?
27673Says it himself?
27673Shall I say more, to see thee rage again?
27673So dull a brain hast found in me Aforetime, such a faint heart, not to see Thy work betimes, or seeing not to smite?
27673Some passing of disease?
27673Spoke what?
27673That Laïus who was king in Thebes of old?
27673The charge was made, then, that Tiresias hath Made answer false, and that I bribed him, I?
27673The herd whose presence here We craved for, is it he this man would say?
27673The one man...?
27673The tale, yes: but the witness, where is he?
27673There is my lineage true, which none shall wrest From me; who then am I to fear this quest?
27673There, Lord?
27673Think''st thou that any man Would rather rule and be afraid than rule And sleep untroubled?
27673Think, with what eyes hereafter in the place Of shadows could I see my father''s face, Or my poor mother''s?
27673Thou first, our guest from Corinth: say withal Is this the man?
27673Thou givest thine oath?
27673Thou hadst me from another?
27673Thou man more wronged than tongue can tell, What madness took thee?
27673Thou needs must trouble God for one so low?
27673Thou reignest, giving equal reign to her?
27673Thou think''st''twill help thee, thus to speak and speak?
27673Thou wast one That wandered, tending sheep for hire?
27673To banish me is thy intent?
27673To brook such words from this thing?
27673To leave the Truth half- found?
27673To see, to endure, to hear words kindly spoken, Should I have joy in such?
27673To what end Wast travelling in these parts?
27673To what end askest thou?
27673Vain men, what would ye with this angry swell Of words heart- blinded?
27673Walking at my gate With eye undimmed, thou plotter demonstrate Against this life, and robber of my crown?
27673Was I in some suffering Or peril?
27673Was it as I say?
27673Was it thine own child, or Another''s?
27673Was there something that I said...?
27673Went he with scant array, or a great band Of armèd followers, like a lord of land?
27673Were not your King and Queen My parents?
27673Were that as sweet, when all the tale were told, As this calm griefless princedom that I hold And silent power?
27673Were we not all as one, she thou and I?
27673What God made blind thy will?
27673What art thou, O Heavenly One, O Word of the Houses of Gold?
27673What bring''st thou more?
27673What call ye now our riches?
27673What dance of damsels shall ye gather to, What feast of Thebes, but quick ye shall turn home, All tears, or ere the feast or dancers come?
27673What doing?--What man meanest thou?
27673What have I done?...
27673What in Queen Meropê should fright thee thus?
27673What is it troubles thee?
27673What is it?
27673What kind of work, what way of life, was thine?
27673What life hath Delusion so visited, and Pain, And swiftness of Disaster?
27673What man, what house, of these About thee?
27673What mean''st thou?
27673What means this?
27673What news can have that twofold power?
27673What prompted thee?
27673What robber, save the work was planned By treason here, would dare a risk so plain?
27673What say''st thou?
27673What shepherd?
27673What signs?
27673What task, O Affrighter of Evil, what task shall thy people essay?
27673What thought?
27673What was it set me down Thy butt?
27673What was it?
27673What was the evil deed?
27673What was thy camping ground at midsummer?
27673What were mine eyes to me When naught to be seen was good?
27673What wild Fancy, then, made him name me for his child?
27673What wilt thou?
27673What woman, Prince, doth fill thee so with fear?
27673What words?
27673What would ye have me do?
27673What wouldst thou know?
27673What?
27673When hast thou ever shown thee strong For aid?
27673Whence art thou born?
27673Whence came that babe whereof he questioneth?
27673Whence comes he?
27673Where are ye?
27673Where in God''s earth are they?
27673Where is thy gold- strung bow, O Wolf- god, where the flow Of living shafts unconquered, from all ills Our helpers?
27673Where the white Spears of thy Sister''s light, Far- flashing as she walks the wolf- wild hills?
27673Where, Thing of Evil, where Endeth thy leaping hither?
27673Whither?
27673Whither?
27673Who called me so-- father or mother?
27673Who can answer?
27673Who hath seen?
27673Who was the man they killed?
27673Who were they?
27673Whose?
27673Why didst thou, then, let him go With this old man?
27673Why not take me quick and kill, Kill, before ever I could make men know The thing I am, the thing from which I grow?
27673Why seek To trap and question me?
27673Wilt never soften, never trust thy friend?
27673Woman, who could bring To Thebes the story of that manslaying?
27673Ye have seen him on the hills?
27673Yes.... What, if thou art blind in everything?
27673Yonder?
27673[_ Antistrophe._ Queen, wilt thou lead him to his house again?
27673[_ His terror returning._ What does this mean?
27673[_ Strophe._ But now, what man''s story is such bitterness to speak?
27673[_ They tell of the Pestilence._ Wounds beyond telling; my people sick unto death; And where is the counsellor, where is the sword of thought?
27673[_ With an effort._ Passed in that bloody tempest from men''s sight?
27673ye ministers, Have ye no hearts?
6878--anything you like to call him?
6878--what should you say?
6878And how should we regard the events happening now?
6878And how think ye a man, who behaves so insolently to all, how will he act, when he gets each separately under his control?
6878And if he become master of this country, shall we not incur foul disgrace?
6878And if you dispatch empty galleys and hopes from this or that person, think ye all is well?
6878And shall we wait for this?
6878And what is this?
6878And what matters it to you?
6878And who can believe this?
6878Are not the Euboean states governed now by despots, and that in an island near to Thebes and Athens?
6878Are not they, to whom we promised sure protection in case of war, at this moment in hostilities?
6878But do his affairs go badly on this account, or ours well?
6878But if a war should come, what damage must be expected?
6878But if any one can let alone our theatrical fund, and suggest other supplies for the military, is he not cleverer?
6878But since these orators have appeared, who ask, What is your pleasure?
6878But what are they?
6878But what has caused the mischief?
6878But what is the condition of Thessaly?
6878But what would it avail them?
6878But when he marches to attack us, what shall we say then?
6878But wherefore mention other people?
6878Consider, Athenians, should there not be native captains, a native general of horse, your own commanders, that the force might really be the state''s?
6878Do n''t say-- what does it signify?
6878Do you bid me, and wo n''t you be angry?
6878Does a second give better advice?
6878Does any one of you, Athenians, compute or consider the means, by which Philip, originally weak, has become great?
6878Does he not expressly write in his epistles,"I am at peace with those who are willing to obey me?"
6878Does he not write to the Thessalians, what form of government to adopt?
6878For if you were asked: Are you at peace, Athenians?
6878For what time or season would you have better than the present?
6878From us-- I omit the rest-- but keeps he not Cardia, the greatest city of the Chersonese?
6878Has not the man got possession of all our strongholds?
6878He maintains war against you through the resources of your allies, by his piracies on their navigation-- But what next?
6878His vernacular explanation is:_ woran stosst es sich?
6878Holds he not Cardia now, and avows it?
6878How are they employed?
6878How fare they with you under the worthies of our time?
6878How is it that all went prosperously then, and nowgoes wrong?
6878How is this to cease, Athenians?
6878How is this?
6878How shall subsistence for these troops be provided?
6878How shall we deal with it, men of Athens?
6878How then?
6878I shall be asked: mean you stipendiary service?
6878If Philip take that city, who shall then prevent his marching here?
6878In what event?
6878Is Philip dead?
6878Is any one of you beyond the military age?
6878Is he not marching against the Byzantines his allies?
6878Is he not master of Thermopylae and the passes into Greece, and holds he not those places by garrisons and mercenaries?
6878Is peace to be had?
6878Is there any likeness or resemblance?
6878Is there such an emergency as the present?
6878Lost you not the Phocians, Thermopylae, country toward Thrace, Doriscus, Serrium, Cersobleptes himself?
6878Now then, does any man not give the best advice?
6878O nation miserable, When shalt thou see thy wholesome days again?]
6878Or some other ally?
6878Or tell me, do ye like walking about and asking one another:--is there any news?
6878Or when, O Athenians, shall we be willing to act as becomes us?
6878Phocians?
6878Shall I say what?
6878Shall we not embark?
6878Shall we not make a descent upon his coast?
6878Shall we not sail with at least a part of our national forces, now though not before?
6878Shall we then say, that persons who bid us defend ourselves kindle a war?
6878That is, not the outlawry commonly spoken of: for what would a Zelite care, to be excluded from Athenian franchises?
6878The Lacedaemonians, who are enemies of Thebes, he overthrows; the Phocians, whom he himself before destroyed, will he now preserve?
6878The parapets that are whitewashed?
6878The roads that are repaired?
6878Thebans?
6878Then are you not ashamed, that the very damage which you would suffer, if he had the power, you dare not seize the moment to inflict on him?
6878Then can I allow, that one who sets such an engine at work against Athens is at peace with her?
6878Then see ye not that Philip''s very titles are at variance therewith?
6878Then what remains, Athenians, but to assist them vigorously and promptly?
6878There are persons whose custom it is, before they hear any speech in the debate, to ask immediately--"What must we do?"
6878Think ye they expected such treatment as they got, or would have believed it if they had been told?
6878To dilate, Athenians, on Philip''s power, and by such discourse to incite you to your duty, I think improper: and why?
6878Well, and how used he his power?
6878Well; what besides?
6878What are they?
6878What did Philip first make himself master of after the peace?
6878What do I mean?
6878What do I mean?
6878What do ye desire?
6878What do you call such conduct?
6878What has produced these results?
6878What is the difference?
6878What is wanting to make his insolence complete?
6878What need of many words?
6878What proof can be adduced?
6878What says the inscription then?
6878What therefore ask I?
6878What was this?
6878What, if any thing should happen, is the risk you run?
6878What?
6878When have the affairs of Greece been in the greatest confusion?
6878When then, Athenians, when will ye act as becomes you?
6878When will you do your duty, if not now?
6878Where then is the pinch[ Footnote: The expression"Where is the rub?"
6878Where, then, shall we land?
6878Which party now destroyed their country?
6878Whom?
6878Why am I so particular in mentioning these things?
6878Why do I mention this?
6878Why mention I this now, and desire these men to be called?
6878Why should the rich seek to be relieved from their burdens because of an abundance of revenue?
6878Why so?
6878Why then does he behave thus to other people, and in a different way to you?
6878Why, could there be greater news than a man of Macedonia subduing Athenians, and directing the affairs of Greece?
6878Why, it may be said, do you mention all this now?
6878Will ye not beware, I said, lest, seeking deliverance from war, you find a master?
6878Yea, and it is disgraceful to exclaim on any occurrence, when it is too late,"Who would have expected it?
6878You know yourselves: why am I to upbraid you with every thing?
6878after permitting, almost helping him to accomplish these things, shall we inquire who were to blame for them?
6878and Leucas?
6878and misfortune, full of trials and hardships every day, how comes it that you prefer, not the quiet and easy life, but the one surrounded with peril?"
6878by whose betrayal Olynthus fell?
6878fountains, and fooleries?
6878from the Thebans taken Echinus?
6878how can I oblige you?
6878must we do?
6878not only by cities, but also by provinces, for subjection?
6878of horse?
6878some man may exclaim: do you move that this be a military fund?
6878to expel the Eretrian commonalty; others to Oreus, to set up Philistides as ruler?
6878to the Aetolians?
6878to which even the Greeks do not all pretend?
6878too, and Philip reduce Olynthus, let any one tell me, what is to prevent him marching where he pleases?
6878what excuse for delay?
6878what shall I move?
6878where the difficulty?
6878which is now established?
6878which of you is so simple as not to know, that the war yonder will soon be here, if we are careless?
6878while Menelaus commands the cavalry fighting for your possessions?
6878whom you commission avoid this war, and seek wars of their own?

6878wo ist der Haken?_ Pabst has:_ woran stosst sich die Sache, und was erzeugt den Verdruss?_] of the matter?
6878would any rational being judge by words rather than by actions, who is at peace with him and who at war?
6878would not all have imputed Philip''s aid of the Cardians to that cause?
6878would take away their revenues?
5063''Tis a stain She driveth from her outer walls; and then Herself doth drink this blood of slaughtered men?

5063Did he ever come...?
5063Did my heart Endure it?
5063Did some one cross the pathway?
5063Do I not hate all Greeks?

5063Indeed thy servants bore a troubled mind, O King, but how do else?

5063The stain hath touched it of that mother''s blood?
5063There to abide Till nightfall, and escape?
5063These women?
5063They killed some of my herdsmen on the shore?
5063Thine own imagining?
5063Thou knowest how Pelops''princes warred of old?
5063Thou knowest the name of Troy?
5063Thou knowest where the tide Sweeps up in a long channel?
5063Thou seest this circuit wall Enormous?
5063Thou?
5063Three souls, but one in fortune, one in love, Thou seest us go-- is it to death or home?
5063Too long?
5063Wait for what?
5063What are the men to me?
5063What brought thee here beyond the Friendless Tide?
5063What can we next?
5063What cause had she?
5063What chance?
5063What dare I do?
5063What gain to have told it thee, when I am dead?
5063What god dost thou invoke to witness this?
5063What help is that for the Image?
5063What is the sea to thee and thine?
5063What man art them, and what man''s son, to bear Our priestess from the land?"
5063What marvel if I also love mine own?"
5063What means this greeting strange?
5063What mother then was yours, O strangers, say, And father?
5063What name was his?
5063What news, that should so mar my obsequies?
5063What prayer Can help us then?
5063What should I swear to do or not to do?
5063What sought they by such guile?
5063What thought was in his brain?
5063What tidings, ho?
5063What tidings-- if unbidden I may speak?
5063What wouldst thou then?
5063What wouldst thou, then?
5063What?
5063What?
5063What?
5063Whence are ye come, O most unhappy men?
5063Where am I, Pylades?
5063Where is she?
5063Where is the warden of this sacred gate, The Greek woman?
5063Where shall it be?
5063Where went he?
5063Where?
5063Which of us would not expect at least as much from his own sister, if it lay with her to save him from the altars of Benin or Ashanti?
5063While he I love must die?
5063Whither can they flee?
5063Who art thou, questioning of Greece so well?
5063Who can the damsel be?
5063Who dares before this portal consecrate Make uproar and lewd battering of the gate?
5063Who knows when heaven May send that fortune?
5063Who showed thee so?
5063Whom Clytemnestra bare?
5063Whose hand will bear-- Should it be thine?--the image from her throne?
5063Why bondage?
5063Why callest thou on God For words of mine?
5063Why curse him?
5063Why grudge me this?
5063Why sighst thou?
5063Why weepest thou, woman, to make worse the smart Of that which needs must be, whoe''er thou art?
5063Why?
7959Do you indeed believe the Romans to be equally brave and vigorous in war, as during peace they are vicious and dissolute? 7959 How long,"said they,"shall we hold the son of our Emperor thus besieged?
7959What poetry the Sirens chaunted?
7959What was Achilles''name, when he lay hid among the women?
7959And did not Anthony at last pay with his life the penalty of that subdolous alliance?
7959And if they meant to petition, why meditate violence?
7959And were the magistrates themselves free from these excesses?
7959Are Cassius and Brutus now in arms?
7959As he had been likewise dignified with the Consular and triumphal honours, what more could fortune add to his lustre and renown?
7959But suppose any of them escaped so many dangers, and survived so many calamities, where was their reward at last?
7959But what is it, that I am first to prohibit, what excess retrench to the ancient standard?
7959Can I call you_ soldiers_?
7959Did Augustus, even under the pressure of old age and infirmities, take so many journeys into Germany?
7959Did he not next ensnare Marc Anthony, first by treaties, those of Tarentum and Brundusium; then by a marriage, that of his sister Octavia?
7959For, during these days of frenzy what has been too horrid for you to commit?
7959Gallio had forsooth discovered a recompense which had escaped the sagacity of the deified Augustus?
7959He might, in truth, outlive and avoid the few and last days of Tiberius: but how escape the youth of his heir?
7959Hence Cneius Piso asked him,"In what place, Caesar, will you choose to give your opinion?
7959Here Asinius Gallus interposed:"I beg to know, Caesar,"says he,"what part of the government you desire for your share?"
7959How therefore did parsimony prevail of old?
7959In short, shall two common men dispossess the Neros and the Drusi, and to themselves assume the Empire of the Roman People?
7959In truth, what a small force would all the soldiers arrived in the island appear; would the Britons but compute their own numbers?
7959It was added, that the husbands were corrupted by their corrupt wives: and were therefore all single men uncorrupt?
7959Messalinus was asked by Lucius Asprenas, in the presence of the Senate,"Whether by design he had omitted him?"
7959Now to which should he repair first?
7959Quando annona moderatior?
7959Quando pax laetior?
7959Shall we swear allegiance to Percennius and Vibulenus?
7959The brother having informed him where, and in what fight, was next asked,"what reward he had received?"
7959They asked,"did he mean to surrender Julius Sacrovir to the Senate, to try him for treason?"
7959Tiberius too afterwards, when Pompeius Macer, the Praetor, consulted him"whether process should be granted upon this law?"
7959To this audience what name shall I give?
7959To war indeed we must go equipped and unencumbered; but after the fatigues of war, what was more allowable than the consolations of a wife?
7959Upon him Tiberius fell with violent wrath, and, as if present, demanded, what business had he with the soldiers?
7959What so sacred that you have not violated?
7959What would be the consequence, if, by such a marriage, the strife were inflamed?
7959When they were withdrawn,"How came you,"says he to his brother,"by that deformity in your face?"
7959Where at least were the ceremonies and even outside of sorrow?"
7959Where will our broils and wild contentions end?
7959Where, oh where, Blesus, hast thou thrown his unoffending and mangled corpse?
7959Why not inquired into the author of the poison?
7959Why would he not rather have tortured the minister of the poison?
7959Will Vibulenus and Percennius support us with pay during our service, and reward us with lands when dismissed?
7959Yet I would not venture to aver that in Germany no vein of gold or silver is produced; for who has ever searched?
7959_ Quid studiosa Cohors operum struit?
7959_ Quis Parthum paveat?
7959_ Roman citizens_ can I call you?
7959and whither did they drag her?
7959and would not the last visited be inflamed by being postponed?
7959did we therefore send none into the provinces?
7959do they at present fill with armed troops the fields of Philippi?
7959how little to be weighed in the balance with others?
7959or do I fire the Roman People, by inflammatory harangues, with the spirit of civil rage?
7959or with the gorgeous vestments, promiscuously worn by men and women?
7959or with the pictures, and works, and statues of brass, the wonders of art?
7959or with the quantity of plate, silver, and gold?
7959or, were their recompenses to be adjudged by many masters, but their punishments to remain without any restraint or moderator whatsoever?"
7959there also to exercise his enmity to the legions, and oppose their interest?"
7959to the Emperor or Senate?
7959unless the same were his native country?
7959were not most of them governed by many exorbitant appetites?
7959what Senators were to be chosen?
7959where the glory of ancient discipline?
7959whether always the same, or a continued succession?
7959whether those who were Magistrates, or those exercising no magistracy?
7959whether young Senators, or such as had borne dignities?
7959whither had they chased their Tribunes, whither their Centurions?"
7959who to be omitted?
7959why did you leave me at their mercy by snatching from me my sword, when with it I would have put myself out of their power?
7959you who have beset with arms the son of your Emperor, confined him in your trenches, and held him in a siege?
7959you who have trampled upon the supreme authority of the Roman Senate?
26294''But what do you want fish for?''
26294''But,''says my adversary,''for what purpose save evil did you dissect the fish brought you by your servant Themison?''
26294''Is it reasonable,''I ask,''to demand of any one the reasons of another person''s private opinions?''
26294''What is your point then?
26294''What then?''
26294''What,''he asks,''induced a free woman to marry you after thirteen years of widowhood?''
26294''Why do you search for fish?
26294''Why, before she married you, did she express certain opinions in a letter?''
26294''Why,''says my accuser,''have you sought out particular kinds of fish?''
26294''[ 26] Would you have anything more?
26294(_ Cassius Longinus and Corvinus Celer give evidence._) Is it as I said?
26294A small dowry instead of a large one?
26294And how did they secure possession of that letter which must, as is usual in such affairs, have been sent to Pudentilla by some confidential servant?
26294And what made his slave suspect that the walls had been blackened by night in particular?
26294And why did so suspicious and conscientious a slave allow Quintianus to leave the house before having it cleaned?
26294And why did you read out this evidence from a written deposition?
26294And why should I seek to seduce her by flattery so absurd and coarse?
26294Are you ignorant of the fact that there is nothing more pleasing for a man to look upon than his own image?
26294Are you not at last ashamed of all your slanders?
26294As for his colour, what can I say?
26294But are all persons, who are the objects of love, magicians, just because the person in love with them chances to say so in a letter?
26294But does that prove that whoever acquires fish is_ ipso facto_ a magician?
26294But how did you proceed?
26294But of what use are fish save to be cooked and eaten at meals?
26294But why do I speak of groves or shrines?
26294But why do I speak of these slaves?
26294But why should I speak further of man?
26294But, I ask you, is any one who does that a magician?
26294Can not you conceive the possibility that she should show any affection save the affection of a mother for her son?
26294Could anything be added to such a panegyric as this, delivered by the lips of an ex- consul?
26294Could she prove it with one word?
26294Did I need such a crowd to help me by holding the lustral victims during the lengthy rite?
26294Did he covet her wealth?
26294Did you come here to accuse me or to ask me questions?
26294Did you hear the phrases which your brother Pontianus used in speaking of me?
26294Did you, Aemilianus, write what has just been read out?
26294Do you bring that as a reproach against me which is one of the reasons for the admiration with which Maximus and myself regard Aristotle?
26294Do you dare then, Aemilianus, to match yourself against Avitus?
26294Do you deny this, Aemilianus?
26294Do you hear the condemnation of your lie?
26294Do you hear these cries of protest that arise from all present?
26294Do you hear, you who so rashly accuse the art of magic?
26294Do you want to prove that he had a fit in my presence?
26294Does night smoke differ from day smoke in being darker?
26294Does not the opposition of these sophistic arguments remind you of brambles, that the wind has entangled one with another?
26294Does the mere fact of my being a poet make me a wizard?
26294Else tell us what you asked for?
26294Else why did you not ask the gods for something?
26294Else why did you write it?
26294For on that assumption what living man could be more eloquent than myself?
26294For what ampler commendation, what purer testimony could I produce in my support, what more eloquent advocacy?
26294For what hound, what vulture hovering in the Alexandrian sky, could sniff out anything so far distant as Oea?
26294For what man among you would pardon me one solecism or condone the barbarous pronunciation of so much as one syllable?
26294Has he returned to Alexandria out of disgust at the state of his house?
26294Has lying made you blind, or shall I rather say that from force of habit you are incapable of speaking the truth?
26294Have I passed by the black- tail and the''thrush'', The sea- merle and the shadow of the sea?
26294Have you breathed silent prayers to heaven in some temple?
26294Have you found the book?
26294Have you written a petition on the thigh of some statue?
26294Have your advocates really never read that Marcus Antonius, a man who had filled the office of consul, had but eight slaves in his house?
26294How did the fact of her having a fit profit Apuleius?''
26294How have you dealt with the mother that bore you?
26294How may I hope adequately to celebrate the honour to which your kindness has prompted you?
26294How may my speech repay you worthily for the glory conferred by your action?
26294I ask you, what is there lacking?
26294I who am fool enough to speak seriously of such things in a law- court?
26294If she had called me a consul, would that make me one?
26294If that is so, why should I be forbidden to learn the fair words of Zalmoxis or the priestly lore of Zoroaster?
26294If they be good, why do you accuse him?
26294If you had discovered such definite proof of my sorceries, why did you not insist on my producing it in court?
26294If you refuse, why did you demand the appearance of such a housefull?
26294Injury, did I say?
26294Insane?
26294Is Epicurus right when he asserts that images proceed forth from us, as it were a kind of slough that continually streams from our bodies?
26294Is Phaedra the only woman whom love has driven to write a lying letter?
26294Is he washing his walls?
26294Is it just to reproach a man for that which is regarded as no reproach to the animal kingdom, to the eagle, to the bull, to the lion?
26294Is it likely that I should have permitted so large a number to be present on such an occasion, if they were too many to be accomplices?
26294Is it not rather an insult to so distinguished a citizen as Claudius Maximus, and a false and slanderous persecution of myself?
26294Is my name ever mentioned in the deed of sale?
26294Is that sufficient?
26294Is the price paid for this trifling property such as should excite any prejudice against me, or did my wife give me even so much as this small gift?
26294Is the result of your uncle''s teaching this, that, if you were sure your sons would be like yourself, you should be afraid to take a wife?
26294Is this a magic symbol or one that is common and ordinary?
26294Is this a skeleton, this a goblin, is this the familiar spirit you asserted it to be?
26294Is this the way to bring an accusation?
26294Is this the way to indict a man on so serious a charge?
26294Is this your letter?
26294Is this your signature?
26294Nay, what is there that does not absolutely convict you of obvious falsehood?
26294Now what has it to do with the malpractices of the black art, if I write poems in praise of the boys of my friend Scribonius Laetus?
26294Now, do you think it more the business of a magician than of a doctor, or indeed of a philosopher, to know and seek out remedies?
26294Or did you infer that the fish were wanted for evil purposes because I paid to get them?
26294Or do you regard it as disgraceful to pay continual attention to one''s own appearance?
26294Or is it nothing mysterious and yet something connected with magic?
26294Or is there something mysterious in fish and fish alone, hidden from all save sorcerers only?
26294Or should we accept the view maintained by other philosophers that rays are emitted from our body?
26294Quite natural, was it not?
26294Sane, do you say?
26294She excludes her devoted husband from the inheritance in favour of her most unfilial son?
26294So that is the charge you bring against me?
26294Tell me now, what is your contention?
26294Tell me, what were the words with which she ended the letter, that poor bewitched, lunatic, insane, infatuated lady?
26294That fishermen sought to procure me the fish?
26294That she should refund her dowry to her sons rather than leave it in my possession?
26294That that very Carbo who obtained supreme control of Rome had fewer by one?
26294The hand of Philomela or Medea or Clytemnestra?
26294The man who is quarrelling over the boundaries of lands, or he whose theme is the boundaries of good and evil?
26294The orator when he wrangles with his opponent or the philosopher when he rebukes the vices of mankind?
26294They realized, moreover, its strange absurdity( for who ever heard of fish being scaled and boned for dark purposes of magic?
26294Was he in love with her beauty?
26294Was it a marriage?
26294Was it also some boy that bewitched him?
26294Was it that you might have complete freedom for inventing lies in the absence of the subject of your slanders?
26294Was it the colour of the smoke?
26294Was she mad or sane when she wrote?
26294Were they to count the grains of incense?
26294What Palamedes, what Sisyphus, what Eurybates or Phrynondas could ever have devised such guile?
26294What am I to do with men so stupid and uncivilized?
26294What can the hands do, if they are fettered, or what the feet, if they are shackled?
26294What can[58] the mind that rules and directs us do, if it be relaxed in sleep or drowned in wine or crushed beneath the weight of disease?
26294What clearer evidence of the falseness of your accusations could be desired?
26294What credence do you expect us to give you after this?
26294What did he seek to get from her by so doing?
26294What else is the significance of statues and portraits produced by the various arts?
26294What else should the wretch do?
26294What had I to gain by my magic that should lead me to attempt to win Pudentilla by love- philtres?
26294What had I to gain from her?
26294What had you hidden in your handkerchief?''
26294What has become of that ferocious utterance with which you opened the indictment, couched in the name of my step- son?
26294What if I take such interest and possess such skill in medicine as to search for certain remedies in fish?
26294What if a young man or even an old man had fallen in my presence through a sudden stroke of disease or merely owing to the slipperiness of the ground?
26294What if she had called me a painter, a doctor, or even an innocent man?
26294What is it that you want?
26294What is it you want?
26294What is more readily come by than madness of speech and worthlessness of character?
26294What is the result?
26294What is there in the whole affair that could give you or any one else[29] a handle for accusing me?
26294What is there left, Aemilianus, that in your opinion I have failed to refute?
26294What is there that a philosopher should be ashamed to own?
26294What is this parable, you ask me?
26294What lacks there now to the honour of my statue, save the price of the bronze and the service of the artist?
26294What lacks there to sanction and establish my glory and to set it on the topmost pinnacle of fame?
26294What magic can surpass this?
26294What more do you demand?''
26294What more would you have?
26294What motives for resentment has Aemilianus against me, even assuming him to be correctly informed when he accuses me of magic?
26294What need had I of flattery, if I put my trust in magic?
26294What need have we of change of governors?
26294What of his lyre that flashes gold, gleams white with ivory, and shimmers with rainbow gems?
26294What of his robes so fine in texture, so soft to the touch, aglow with purple?
26294What of his song, so cunning and so sweet?
26294What other motives can you allege?
26294What profit of these short years, these fleeting months of office?
26294What remains, in which any suspicion of sorcery can lie concealed?
26294What shall I do?
26294What then was his motive?
26294What think you?
26294What think you?
26294What think you?
26294What was the result?
26294What, then, can such circumstances as these add to or take away from his virtues or his vices?
26294What, then, is their claim to distinction?
26294When does one and the same mirror seem now to withdraw the image into its depths, now to extrude it forth to view?
26294Where in the world is Crassus?
26294Which do you think should pay greatest attention to the decorousness of his appearance in the delivery of a speech?
26294Which of these two points is of the slightest value as affording suspicion of sorcery?
26294Which of us is most to blame?
26294Who can call this a crime in a philosopher which would be no crime in a butcher or cook?
26294Who did not recognize her mother''s pupil, when they saw her dyed lips, her rouged cheeks, and her lascivious eyes?
26294Who ever heard any orator produce such likely ground for suspicion, such apt conjectures, such close- reasoned argument?
26294Who is there of such gentle temper, but that this would wake him to fury?
26294Who of you will suffer me to stammer in disorderly and faulty phrases such as might rise to the lips of madmen?
26294Who would endure it if you made this a ground for accusing me of being a poisoner, merely because those drugs are capable of killing a man?
26294Why again and under what circumstances are left and right reversed?
26294Why are you silent?
26294Why are you silent?
26294Why are you struck dumb?
26294Why did those feathers lie like lead and await the arrival of Crassus for so long?
26294Why did you examine a sick woman?
26294Why did you not add''He whom I indict is my teacher, my step- father, my mediator''?
26294Why do I mention this?
26294Why do concave mirrors when held at right angles to the rays of the sun kindle tinder set opposite them?
26294Why do not you go farther and accuse me on many similar grounds?
26294Why do not you prove me a magician by my own deeds instead of having recourse to the mere words of another?
26294Why do you draw back?
26294Why do you hesitate?
26294Why do you refuse to look at it, now that you are free from all anxiety about the inheritance of your mother''s fortune?
26294Why do you refuse to question them?
26294Why do you turn pale?
26294Why do you turn pale?
26294Why is it that the strength of your speech lies in mere noise, while it is weak and flabby in point of facts?
26294Why look round?
26294Why should I only complain of what is past?
26294Why then attribute his fall to magic rather than disease?
26294Why this silence?
26294Why, again, should I write in such faulty words, such barbarous language, I whom my accusers admit to be quite at home in Greek?
26294Will any one, who chances to remember it, repeat the beginning of that particular passage in my discourse?
26294Will you persist in this attitude, Aemilianus, if I can show that my verses were modelled upon Plato?
26294Will you then deny that Solon was a serious man and a philosopher?
26294With what more auspicious theme could I engage your ears?
26294Would you accept any of these statements, simply because she had made them?
26294Would you have me be ignorant, be silent, as to these details?
26294Would you like me to tell you what I had wrapped up in a handkerchief and entrusted to the care of Pontianus''household gods?
26294You have demanded fifteen slaves to support an accusation of magic; how many would you be demanding if it were a charge of violence?
26294and it was a mere slip of the tongue when you indicted me for practising the black art?
26294have I passed by Scarus?
26294is this the way you accuse your victims?
26294or a seasonable banquet?
26294or any other crowded ceremony?
26294or to knock Thallus down?
26294or you who are slanderous enough to include such charges in your indictment?
26294or, as is more likely, is the glutton feeling ill after his debauch?
26294to know how far such things reveal the workings of providence, or to swallow all the tales his father and mother told him of the immortal gods?
26294you asked,''Did she die?''
47676What are you doing?
47676Whence was Corinna made acquainted with your escapade? 47676 Why, haughty Tragedy,"said she,"dost thou attack me with high- sounding words?
47676''Am I always then to be made the subject of fresh charges?'']
47676''Quid tua nunc Isis mihi Delia?
47676''Quin''seems to be a preferable reading to-''quid?'']
47676All_ this_ I could endure; but who could allow the fair to arise_ thus_ early, except_ the man_ who has no mistress of his own?
47676Am I mistaken, or was there a branch of myrtle in her right hand?
47676Am I mistaken?
47676Am I mistaken?
47676Am I to dread nothing?
47676Am I to yield?
47676An accomplice in the escapade will receive everlasting honour; and what is less trouble than_ merely_ to hold your tongue?
47676And am I then only as a guest to look upon the fair so much beloved?
47676And besides: Was it not so fine, that you were afraid to dress[ 205] it; just like the veils[ 206] which the swarthy Seres use?
47676And can you touch that right hand, by which some person has met his death?
47676And can you, my life, enfold him in your charming arms?
47676And canst thou never be other than severe?
47676And could I then endure, repulsed so oft from thy doors, to lay a free- born body upon the hard ground?
47676And did I behold it, when the wearied paramour came out of your door, carrying off his jaded and exhausted sides?
47676And did Orestes, the guilty avenger of his father, the punisher of his mother, dare to ask for weapons against the mystic Goddesses?
47676And first she spoke;"And when will there be an end of thy loving?
47676And have I then in reality as well as in name found you full of duplicity?
47676And have I_ not_, too, declared that if any one can commit the sin with a bondwoman, that man must want a sound mind?
47676And justly; for why have I made proclamation[ 648] of her charms?
47676And shall I then, to my sorrow, forsooth, never be forbidden admission?
47676And shall there be another, to take pleasure in being touched_ by you?_ And will you, conveniently placed below, be keeping warm the bosom of another?
47676And shall there be another, to take pleasure in being touched_ by you?_ And will you, conveniently placed below, be keeping warm the bosom of another?
47676And the wretched Hector, dragged by the Hæmonian steeds?
47676And what you do in secret, to say openly that it is done?
47676And who, then, would take care to place the frankincense in his devotion upon the altars?
47676And whom do you not please?
47676And why beat thy open breast with frenzied hand?
47676And why does no white fillet[ 585] bind thy hair tied up?
47676And why pluck the sour apples with relentless hand?
47676And why that the hard stones followed the lyre[ 663] as it was struck?
47676And will you make known your frailties to malicious report?
47676And will you make proof of your own criminality?
47676And would I, forsooth, ask_ such a thing_ of a servant, who is so faithful to you?
47676And, hallowed Poet, have the flames of the pile consumed thee, and have they not been afraid to feed upon that heart of thine?
47676And_ why_, in my own camp, am I_ thus_ wounded?
47676Another is running through the complaining strings with active finger; who could not fall in love with hands so skilled?
47676Are my sufferings a pain to thee?
47676Are you delaying?
47676Begin to enquire who it is that so often stealthily paces thy threshold?
47676Besides; did not enduring love for the Arcadian maid force Alpheus[ 574] to run through various lands?
47676But, if you had let it alone, what was more plenteous than it?
47676But, meanwhile, should you like to receive the gentle breeze which the fan may cause,[ 530] when waved by my hand?
47676Can any one believe that she takes delight in the tears of lovers, and is duly propitiated with misery and single- blessedness?
47676Can you, my life, rush into his embrace?
47676Do you inquire why I am changed?
47676Elegy justly asks Tragedy, why, if she has such a dislike to Elegiac verses, she has been talking in them?
47676Fool, what is slumber but the image of cold death?
47676Gazing on I know not what, could I speak of the rivers[ 590] Acheloüs and Inachus, and could I, Nile, talk of thy name?
47676Happy the man, who proves the delights of Love?
47676He, too, who wasted as many of his years in wandering as in warfare?
47676Her husband, too, is not in his senses; for who would toil at taking care of that of which no part is lost, even if you do not watch it?
47676I am not greater than the descendant of Tantalus, nor greater than Achilles; why should I deem that a disgrace to me, which was becoming for monarchs?
47676I cried out;"whither are you taking those transports that belong to me?
47676If you should miss that, what good fortune will there be for you?
47676Is Heliconian Tempe thine?
47676Is even his own lyre hardly safe now for Phoebus?
47676Is it that I have blushed?
47676Is it that, making a slip in any expression, I have given any guilty sign of our stealthy amours?
47676Is that which is everywhere, thine?
47676Is there any fair one that casts down her modest eyes?
47676Let the protection of a closed gate be of value to cities when besieged;_ but_ why, in the midst of peace are you dreading warfare?
47676Of what use is it to be blunting thy barbed darts against bare bones?
47676Of what use is the swift Achilles celebrated by me?
47676On not seeing them, I am on fire; what would be the consequence if they_ were seen?_ You are heaping flames upon flames, water upon the sea.
47676Only that a refusal might be united to a betrayal?
47676Or by struggling_ against it_, am I to increase this sudden flame?
47676Or did the door- posts creak with the turning hinge, and did the shaken door give the jarring signal?
47676Or does she fancy that her escapade was not known?
47676Or does_ Love_ come unawares and cunningly attack in silent ambush?
47676Or else, to my own disgrace, to have torn her tunic from its upper edge down to the middle?
47676Or has she gained fame by my poems?
47676Or is the heat I feel, rather that of my own passion, and not of the weather, and is the love of the fair burning my inflamed breast?
47676Or what Deities am I to complain of, as waging war against me?
47676Or what star must I consider to be the enemy of my destiny?
47676Or_ like_ the thread which the spider draws out with her slender legs, when she fastens her light work beneath the neglected beam?
47676Remorseless one, whither dost thou hasten?
47676Shall I heave no sighs in my sleep?
47676Should I ask of Achelous,"Where now are thy horns?"
47676Should I not have been punished had I struck the humblest Roman[ 085] of the multitude?
47676Tell me what Tereus, or what Jason excites you to pierce your body with an anxious hand?
47676The elm loves the vine,[ 471] the vine forsakes not the elm: why am I_ so_ often torn away from my love?
47676The night, too, long as it is, have I passed without sleep; and why do the weary bones of my restless body ache?
47676The rest, who knows not?
47676Those joys, which are so equally sweet to both, why does the one sell, and_ why_ the other buy them?
47676Though they be fictions,[ 414]_ yet_ all will I believe as truth; why should I not myself encourage what is my own wish?
47676Thy sway, O youth, is great, and far too potent; why, in thy ambition, dost thou attempt a new task?
47676To her said Nemesis:"What dost thou say?
47676To what purpose surround cities with turreted fortifications?
47676Was not one damsel sufficient for my anxiety?
47676Wast thou married to the old fellow by my contrivance?
47676We ask that through you we may be enabled to love in safety; what can there be more harmless than these our prayers?
47676What age is to be forgetful of Varro,[ 232] and the first ship_ that sailed_, and of the golden fleece sought by the chief, the son of Æson?
47676What availed his father, what, his mother, for Ismarian Orpheus[ 615] What, with his songs to have lulled the astounded wild beasts?
47676What avails it me thus to have hastened?
47676What avails it that_ ever_ since you were given, you pleased my mistress?
47676What can this or that son of Atreus do for me?
47676What do I want with you, ye ministers of death and criminality?
47676What does sacrifice avail thee?
47676What free man would wish to have amorous intercourse with a bondwoman, and to embrace a body mangled with the whip?
47676What hast thou to do with the sea?
47676What have I now to do, Delia, with your Isis?
47676What have I to do with one so easy, what with such a pander of a husband?
47676What if Triton arouses the agitated waves?
47676What if thou didst flow according to some fixed rule,[ 588] a river of some note?
47676What if thy fame was mighty throughout the earth?
47676What if[ 199] she had not once burned with passion for Cephalus?
47676What is the price of such and such a thing?
47676What madness is it to confess in light of day what lies concealed in night?
47676What the beauty of your rare plumage?
47676What thirsty traveller has been able to drink of thee then?
47676What to have given so little time to rest?
47676What to have made the night all one with the day?
47676What would you do to an enemy, who thus shut out the lover?
47676What your voice so ingenious at imitating sounds?
47676What, furious torrent, hast thou against me?
47676What, in my anger, ought I to pray, but that an old age of rottenness may consume you, and that your wax may be white with nasty mould?]
47676What, lying apart[ 621] in a forsaken bed?
47676What, wretched man, art thou about?
47676When Pergamus fell, conquered in a war of twice five years:[ 415] out of so many, how great was the share of renown for the son of Atreus?
47676When have I not kept close fastened to your side as you walked,[ 642] myself your keeper, myself your husband, myself your companion?
47676Whither art thou hastening, hated by the men, detested by the fair?
47676Whither have gone thy vestments?
47676Whither the careful handmaid is carrying, or whence bringing back, the tablets?
47676Whither, Aurora, art thou hastening?
47676Who has said, with grateful lips,"Mayst thou flow on for ever?"
47676Who is to dread arms_ such_ as these?
47676Who may not go out to face them?
47676Who would arm Phoebus, graceful with his locks, with the sharp spear, while Mars is striking the Aonian lyre?
47676Who would have destroyed the resources of Priam, if Thetis, the Goddess of the waves, had refused to bear_ Achilles_, her due burden?
47676Who, except either the soldier or the lover, will submit to both the chill of the night, and the snows mingled with the heavy showers?
47676Why add leaves to the trees, why stars to the heavens filled_ with them?_ Why additional waters to the vast ocean?
47676Why add leaves to the trees, why stars to the heavens filled_ with them?_ Why additional waters to the vast ocean?
47676Why are you complaining that hair so badly treated is gone?
47676Why didst thou choose a beauty for thyself, if she was not pleasing unless chaste?
47676Why do I complain, and why blame all the heavens?
47676Why do I hesitate?
47676Why do I see your hair disarranged more than happens in sleep, and your neck bearing the marks of teeth?
47676Why do I so often espy letters sent and received?
47676Why do you deprive the loaded vine of its growing grapes?
47676Why do you require the son of Venus to be prostituted at a price?
47676Why do you shrink away in vain?
47676Why does thy torch burn, thy bow pierce, thy friends?
47676Why mention Proteus, and the Theban seed,[ 659] the teeth?
47676Why mention the base perjuries of your perfidious tongue?
47676Why must that delight prove a loss to me, to you a gain, for which the female and the male combine with kindred impulse?
47676Why not seek the heavens[ 603] as well, for a third realm?
47676Why now, am I courted[ 586] for any nuptials, a Vestal disgraced, and to be driven from the altars of Ilium?
47676Why one side and the other[ 673] tumbled, of your couch?
47676Why pierce[ 443] your own entrails, by applying instruments, and_ why_ give dreadful poisons to the_ yet_ unborn?
47676Why refuse me, ungrateful one, and why invent new apprehensions?
47676Why should I be punished in my affections, if thy husband does decay through_ length of_ years?
47676Why should I be sad, when thy daughter has been found again by thee, and rules over realms, only less than Juno in rank?
47676Why should I mention Asopus, whom Thebe, beloved by Mars,[ 576] received, Thebe, destined to be the parent of five daughters?
47676Why should I mention the affectionate prayers of my anxious mistress in your behalf; prayers borne over the seas by the stormy North wind?
47676Why should I_ think of_ Fortune, should she never care to deceive me?
47676Why so oft she lies in her couch apart?
47676Why that there were bulls, which vomited flames from their mouths?
47676Why thus delay our mutual transports?
47676Why wandering thus alone?
47676Why weepest thou, and why spoil thy eyes wet with tears?
47676Why, Erycina, dost thou everlastingly double my pangs?
47676Why, Philomela, are you complaining of the cruelty of_ Tereus,_ the Ismarian tyrant?
47676Why, charioteer, that thy sisters distil amber tears?
47676Why, churlish river, interrupt the journey once commenced?
47676Why, silly girl, do you lay down the mirror[ 214] with disconsolate hand?
47676Why, then, dost thou not choose some one else, for so great long- suffering to please?
47676Why; did not Ajax, too,[ 080] the owner of the sevenfold shield, slaughter the flocks that he had caught along the extended plains?
47676Will it ever be night for me, with no one for an avenger?
47676Yellow Ceres, having thy floating locks crowned with ears of corn, why dost thou interfere with my pleasures by thy rites?
47676[ 005]"Who, cruel boy, has given thee this right over my lines?
47676[ 028]_ And_ shall he, when he pleases, be placing his hand upon your neck?
47676[ 081] And could I then tear her tresses so well arranged; and were not her displaced locks unbecoming to my mistress?
47676[ 183] In my madness, have I entrusted my courtship to these, and have I given soft words to be_ thus_ carried to my mistress?
47676[ 478] What would she not be ready to give to be so?
47676[ 541] What art thou about?
47676[ 553] Tell me, ye Gods, if with impunity she has proved false to you, why have I suffered, punishment for the deserts of another?
47676[ 595] Perhaps, too, he will tell how often he has stabbed a man; covetous one, will you touch the hand that confesses this?
47676[ 602] To what purpose turn hostile hands to arms?
47676[ 620] Of what use are now the''sistra''of Egypt?
47676[ 640] And did I then, like a slave, keep watch before thy street door, for some stranger I know not whom, that you were holding in your embrace?
47676[ 660] Why that they are now Goddesses of the sea, who once were ships?
47676[ 661] Why that the light of day fled from the hellish banquet[ 662] of Atreus?
47676_ And_ for why?
47676_ And_ shall I have a greater privilege against my mistress?
47676_ But_ what need is there for wearying her fingers with holding the pen?
47676_ But_ why enlarge on every point?
47676_ But_ why wish for impossibilities?
47676_ and_ why is my case so stare?

47676what does this poet of yours make you a present of besides his last verses?
47676where is that tenderness of heart of yours?
47676why dost thou torment me, who,_ thy_ soldier, have never deserted thy standards?
47676why is she so well known to herself?
47676why, for you, must I dread the Zephyrs, and the Eastern gales, and the cold Boreas, and the warm wind of the South?
7278Had Greece but been as carping and as cold To new productions, what would now be old? 7278 Have you a mother, father, kin, To whom your life is precious?"
7278How''s this?
7278How,--anon He rambles off,--"how get you on, You and Maecenas?
7278I''ve nothing in the world to do, And what''s a paltry mile or two? 7278 Is it so?
7278Pyrrha, what slender boy, in perfume steeped, Doth in the shade of some delightful grot Caress thee now on couch with roses heaped? 7278 The Parthian, under Caesar''s reign, Or icy Scythian, who can dread, Or all the tribes barbarian bred By Germany, or ruthless Spain?
7278What witch, what magician, with drinks and with charms, What god can effect your release from her harms? 7278 Whence, friends, and whither to?"
7278Why doth he shun The Campus Martius''sultry glare? 7278 Why wilt thou kill me with thy boding fears?
7278With what poison is this that my vitals are heated? 7278 You wo n''t?
7278You''d have a speedy doom? 7278 ''But has he spoken?'' 7278 ''I say, where are you pushing to? 7278 ''The Thracian gladiator, can One match him with the Syrian?'' 7278 ''What shook the stage, and made the people stare?'' 7278 --And is Quinctilius, then, weighed down by a sleep that knows no waking?"

7278And does he still aspire To marry Theban strains to Latium''s lyre, Thanks to the favouring muse?
7278And wherefore should it be so, when Augustus has at command the genius of such men as Virgil and Varius?
7278And, when the bird''s cooked, what becomes of its splendour?
7278Are you afraid it will damage your reputation with posterity to be thought to have been one of my intimates?"
7278Are you all deaf?''
7278At length the town mouse;"What,"says he,"My good friend, can the pleasure be, Of grubbing here, on the backbone Of a great crag with trees o''ergrown?
7278But after me as still he came,"Sir, is there anything,"I cried,"You want of me?"
7278But is this any reason you should not apply Your superfluous wealth to ends nobler, more high?
7278But not about our neighbours''houses, Or if''tis generally thought That Lepos dances well or not?
7278But what concerns us nearer, and Is harmful not to understand, By what we''re led to choose our friends,-- Regard for them, or our own ends?
7278But where are the fever and the strong pulse of passion which, in less ethereal mortals, would be proper to such a theme?
7278By viper''s blood-- certes, it can not be less-- Stewed into the potherbs; can I have been cheated?
7278Can you make of the feathers you prize so a feast?

7278Do n''t talk to me of taste, Ofellus continues--"Will it give you a notion If this pike in the Tiber was caught, or the ocean?
7278For whom dost thou thine amber tresses knot"With all thy seeming- artless grace?
7278Gibbon speaks contemptuously of many of the incidents recorded in this poem, asking,"How could a man of taste reflect on them the day after?"
7278Give you up, or my cause?"
7278HE.--What, if our ancient love return, And bind us with a closer tie, If I the fair- haired Chloë spurn, And as of old, for Lydia sigh?
7278Have they rain- water or fresh springs to drink?
7278Have we never encountered a piscatory Gargilius near the Spey or the Tweed?

7278I am sure he could not have written any two consecutive stanzas of Horace; and if he could not, who could?"
7278I, choked with rage, said,"Was there not Some business, I''ve forgotten what, You mentioned, that you wished with me To talk about, and privately?"
7278If better course none offer, why should we Not seize the happy auspices, and boldly put to sea?
7278If it used''twixt the bridges to glide and to quiver, Or was tossed to and fro at the mouth of the river?"
7278If she had injured him, what of that?
7278In what does good consist, and what Is the supremest form of that?
7278In what state did Horace find Italy after his return from Philippi?
7278Is his flesh than the capon''s more juicy or tender?
7278Is it so?
7278Just at this moment who but my Dear friend Aristius should come by?
7278Like the Persian poet, Omar Khayyám, this is ever in his thoughts--"What boots it to repeat, How Time is slipping underneath our feet?
7278Or Canidia, did she cook the villainous mess?
7278Or do ambitious longings, angry fret, The terror of the grave, torment you yet?
7278Or haply rage And mouth in bombast for the tragic stage?"
7278Or what young"oiled and curled"Oriental prince is for the future to pour out his wine for him?

7278Say, are not these a sight, To warn a man from squandering his patrimonial means?''
7278Says me nay?"
7278So, when from town and all its ills I to my perch among the hills Retreat, what better theme to choose Than satire for my homely Muse?
7278The best need large grains of allowance, and to whom should these be given if not to friends?
7278The man who, you find, Has by luxuries pampered both body and mind?
7278The stately Epic Varius leads along, And where is voice so resonant, so strong?
7278Then why not sing, rejoins Trebatius, his justice and his fortitude,"Like sage Lucilius, in his lays To Scipio Africanus''praise?"
7278To what good, he asks, all this turmoil and disquiet?
7278To which of the royal damsels does he intend to throw the handkerchief, having first cut down her princely betrothed in single combat?
7278To- day though driven from his gate, What matter?
7278Unborn To- morrow, and dead Yesterday, Why fret about them if To- day be sweet?".
7278What is this?
7278What pleasure will you extract from these, which a moderate estate will not yield in equal, if not greater, measure?
7278What shall stop him, who starts at break of day From sleeping Rome, and on the Lucrine sails Before the sunshine into twilight pales?"
7278What standard works would there have been, to come Beneath the public eye, the public thumb?"
7278What then had he to gain by courting the favour of the head of the state?
7278What to the oak and ilex, that afford Fruit to the cattle, shelter to their lord?
7278What would you have, you madman, you?''
7278What, but that rich Tarentum must have been Transplanted nearer Rome, with all its green?
7278Where That colour?
7278Where now that beauty?
7278Where those movements?
7278Wherefore do you not Despatch this King here on the spot?
7278Which tract is best for game?
7278Who could take amiss the rebuke of the kindly satirist, who was so ready to show up his own weaknesses?
7278Who dance with such distinguished grace?
7278Who will best meet reverses?
7278Who would venture to deal in this way with the Eleanore, and"rare pale Margaret,"and Cousin Amy, of Mr Tennyson?
7278Who''d not to these wild woods prefer The city, with its crowds and stir?

7278Why doth he shrink from Tiber''s yellow wave?
7278Why is this?
7278Why rejoice to see this once beautiful creature the scoff of all the heartless young fops of Rome?
7278Why thus abhor"The wrestlers''oil, As''twere from viper''s tongue distilled?
7278Why, oh Maecenas, why?
7278Why, then, should he have felt thus abashed?
7278Why?
7278Will you here Stand witness?"
7278Would you Affront the circumcised Jew?"
7278Wretch, of all this great heap have you nothing to spare For our dear native land?
7278You ask, how is this?
7278You so rich, why should any good honest man lack?
7278You''d praise the climate; well, and what d''ye say To sloes and cornels hanging from the spray?
7278You''re bloated by ambition?
7278he cried with loud uproar,"Where are you off to?
7278how now, ye knaves, Inside three hundred people stuff?
7278is there nobody about?
7278my dear fellow, how d''ye do?"
7278on which sea- coast Urchins and other fish abound the most?
7278see you not, when striding down The Via Sacra[ 1]in your gown Good six ells wide, the passers there Turn on you with indignant stare?
7278shall we wreaths of oozy parsley trim,"Or simple myrtle?
7278when in you shall I Myself, eased of unpeaceful thoughts, espy?
7278when, when shall I be made The happy tenant of your shade?
785Again, Where can the billows yield a way, so long As ever the fish are powerless to go?
785Again, behold we not the monuments Of heroes, now in ruins, asking us, In their turn likewise, if we do n''t believe They also age with eld?
785Again, gold unto gold Doth not one substance bind, and only one?
785Again, shall taste Accuse this touch or shall the nose confute Or eyes defeat it?
785Again, why never hurtles Jupiter A bolt upon the lands nor pours abroad Clap upon clap, when skies are cloudless all?
785Again, why see we among objects some Of heavier weight, but of no bulkier size?
785And O how Canst thou believe he shoots at one same time Into diverse directions?
785And first, Why doth the mind of one to whom the whim To think has come behold forthwith that thing?
785And hast thou never marked With what a force the water will disgorge Timber and beam?
785And is not brass by tin joined unto brass?
785And out of what does Ether feed the stars?
785And seest thou not how those whom mutual pleasure Hath bound are tortured in their common bonds?
785And seest thou not, indeed, How widely one small water- spring may wet The meadow- lands at times and flood the fields?
785And so I''ll follow on, and whereso''er thou set The extreme coasts, I''ll query,"what becomes Thereafter of thy spear?"
785And the mare''s filly why not trained so well As sturdy strength of steed?
785And the rest Of all those monsters slain, even if alive, Unconquered still, what injury could they do?
785And too, when all is said, What evil lust of life is this so great Subdues us to live, so dreadfully distraught In perils and alarms?
785And what besides of those first particles Whence soul and mind must fashioned be?--Seest not How nice and how minute?
785And what is there so horrible appears?
785And what motions, too, They give and get among themselves?
785And why Doth he himself allow it, nor spare the same Even for his enemies?
785And why is never a child''s a prudent soul?
785And, contrariwise, if wills he to o''erwhelm us, Quite off our guard, with fire, why thunders he Off in yon quarter, so that we may shun?
785BOOK V PROEM O WHO can build with puissant breast a song Worthy the majesty of these great finds?
785Beside these matters, why Doth nature feed and foster on land and sea The dreadful breed of savage beasts, the foes Of the human clan?
785Besides are seeds of soul there left behind In the breathless body, or not?
785Besides, if''tis his will that we beware Against the lightning- stroke, why feareth he To grant us power for to behold the shot?
785But ask the mourner what''s the bitterness That man should waste in an eternal grief, If, after all, the thing''s but sleep and rest?
785But should some say that always souls of men Go into human bodies, I will ask: How can a wise become a dullard soul?
785For hast thou not observed How eyes, essaying to perceive the fine, Will strain in preparation, otherwise Unable sharply to perceive at all?
785For how, I ask, can things so varied be, If formed of fire, single and pure?
785For what could hurt us now that mighty maw Of Nemeaean Lion, or what the Boar Who bristled in Arcadia?
785For what may we surmise A blow inflicted can achieve besides Shaking asunder and loosening all apart?
785For where can scaly creatures forward dart, Save where the waters give them room?
785For which will last against the grip and crush Under the teeth of death?
785For whither shall we make appeal?
785For who of us Wondereth if some one gets into his joints A fever, gathering head with fiery heat, Or any other dolorous disease Along his members?
785For why could he mark everything by words And utter the various sounds of tongue, what time The rest may be supposed powerless To do the same?
785How stars and constellations drop to earth, Seest not?
785Indeed, and were there not For each its procreant atoms, could things have Each its unalterable mother old?
785Is''t not serener far than any sleep?
785Nay, why, then, aim they at eternal wastes, And spend themselves in vain?--perchance, even so To exercise their arms and strengthen shoulders?
785Now what is there so sad about it all?
785O why most oft Aims he at lofty places?
785O why not rather make an end of life, Of labour?
785Or darest thou Contend that never hath it come to pass That divers strokes have happened at one time?
785Or do the idols watch upon our will, And doth an image unto us occur, Directly we desire-- if heart prefer The sea, the land, or after all the sky?
785Or else the air?
785Or how can mind wax strong Coequally with body and attain The craved flower of life, unless it be The body''s colleague in its origins?
785Or how, when thus restored, may daedal Earth Foster and plenish with her ancient food, Which, kind by kind, she offers unto each?
785Or lest its house, Outworn by venerable length of days, May topple down upon it?
785Or shall the ears have power to blame the eyes, Or yet the touch the ears?
785Or what new factor could, After so long a time, inveigle them-- The hitherto reposeful-- to desire To change their former life?
785Or what''s the purport of its going forth From aged limbs?--fears it, perhaps, to stay, Pent in a crumbled body?
785Or, again, O what could Cretan Bull, or Hydra, pest Of Lerna, fenced with vipers venomous?
785Our gratefulness, O what emoluments could it confer Upon Immortals and upon the Blessed That they should take a step to manage aught For sake of us?
785Seest thou not also how the clouds be sped By contrary winds to regions contrary, The lower clouds diversely from the upper?
785Seest thou not, Besides, how drops of water falling down Against the stones at last bore through the stones?
785Then for what reason shoots he at the sea?-- What sacrilege have waves and bulk of brine And floating fields of foam been guilty of?
785Then what the difference''twixt the sum and least?
785Then, why may yonder stars in ether there Along their mighty orbits not be borne By currents opposite the one to other?
785What marvel, then, that mind doth lose the rest, Save those to which''thas given up itself?
785What power, in sum, Can raise with agile leap our body aloft, Save energy of mind which steers the limbs?
785What then?
785What, then''s, the principle?
785Whence may the water- springs, beneath the sea, Or inland rivers, far and wide away, Keep the unfathomable ocean full?
785Wherefore stalks at large Death, so untimely?
785Whither have sunk so oft so many deeds Of heroes?
785Why behold we Marks of his lightnings most on mountain tops?
785Why do the seasons bring Distempers with them?
785Why do those deeds live no more, Ingrafted in eternal monuments Of glory?
785Why rouseth he beforehand darkling air And the far din and rumblings?
785Why suffer they the Father''s javelin To be so blunted on the earth?
785Why this bemoaning and beweeping death?
785for what More certain than our senses can there be Whereby to mark asunder error and truth?
785the blood?
785the bones?
785the fire?
785the moist?
785which then?
785why keep we not Some footprints of the things we did of, old?
785why not with mind content Take now, thou fool, thy unafflicted rest?
1591''And do you not pursue after pleasure as a good, and avoid pain as an evil?''
1591''And have you not a similar way of speaking about pain?
1591''And is this a sort of thing which is of the nature of the holy, or of the nature of the unholy?''
1591''Are these things good for any other reason except that they end in pleasure, and get rid of and avert pain?
1591''But how,''he will reply,''can the good be unworthy of the evil, or the evil of the good''?
1591''But in what will he be better?''
1591''By what?''
1591''Shall this be the manner in which I am to distribute justice and reverence among men, or shall I give them to all?''
1591( 3) Again, would parents who teach her sons lesser matters leave them ignorant of the common duty of citizens?
1591--and I were to answer, just: would you vote with me or against me?
1591--how would you answer him?
1591--they would acknowledge that they were not?
1591--they would agree to the latter alternative, if I am not mistaken?
1591--they would assent to me?
1591--we should answer,''Yes,''if I am not mistaken?
1591Again we knocked, and he answered without opening: Did you not hear me say that he is not at home, fellows?
1591And are justice and holiness opposed to one another?''
1591And are not these confident persons also courageous?
1591And because of that ignorance they are cowards?
1591And by what is he overcome?
1591And do men have some one part and some another part of virtue?
1591And do the cowards knowingly refuse to go to the nobler, and pleasanter, and better?
1591And do you remember that folly has already been acknowledged by us to be the opposite of wisdom?
1591And do you think that a man lives well who lives in pain and grief?
1591And do you think that the ode is a good composition, and true?
1591And do you think, I said in a tone of surprise, that justice and holiness have but a small degree of likeness?
1591And do you think, he said, that the two sayings are consistent?
1591And does not the poet proceed to say,''I do not agree with the word of Pittacus, albeit the utterance of a wise man: Hardly can a man be good''?
1591And first, you would agree with me that justice is of the nature of a thing, would you not?
1591And foolish actions are done by folly, and temperate actions by temperance?
1591And good sense is good counsel in doing injustice?
1591And have they not been shown to be cowards through their ignorance of dangers?
1591And have you an answer for him?
1591And have you not seen persons utterly ignorant, I said, of these things, and yet confident about them?
1591And if he were further to ask: What is the wisdom of the Sophist, and what is the manufacture over which he presides?--how should we answer him?
1591And if honourable, then good?
1591And if not base, then honourable?
1591And in causing diseases do they not cause pain?
1591And in opposite ways?
1591And is going to battle honourable or disgraceful?
1591And is it partly good and partly bad, I said, or wholly good?
1591And is not ignorance the having a false opinion and being deceived about important matters?
1591And is not wisdom the very opposite of folly?
1591And is the good that which is expedient for man?
1591And is there anything good?
1591And is there not a contradiction?
1591And might you not, I said, affirm this of the painter and of the carpenter also: Do not they, too, know wise things?
1591And one thing is done by temperance, and quite another thing by folly?
1591And shall I argue with them or with you?
1591And suppose that he turned to you and said,''Is this true, Protagoras?
1591And suppose that he went on to say:''Well now, is there also such a thing as holiness?''
1591And suppose that he went to Orthagoras the Theban, and heard him say the same thing, and asked him,''In what shall I become better day by day?''
1591And temperance is good sense?
1591And temperance makes them temperate?
1591And that is done strongly which is done by strength, and that which is weakly done, by weakness?
1591And that which is done in opposite ways is done by opposites?
1591And that which is done in the same manner, is done by the same; and that which is done in an opposite manner by the opposite?
1591And that which is done with swiftness is done swiftly, and that which is done with slowness, slowly?
1591And that which was done foolishly, as we further admitted, was done in the opposite way to that which was done temperately?
1591And that which was done temperately was done by temperance, and that which was done foolishly by folly?
1591And the courageous man has no base fear or base confidence?
1591And the ignorance of them is cowardice?
1591And the knowledge of that which is and is not dangerous is courage, and is opposed to the ignorance of these things?
1591And the reason of this is that they have knowledge?
1591And the reason why they are cowards is admitted by you to be cowardice?
1591And then after this suppose that he came and asked us,''What were you saying just now?
1591And there is the acute in sound?
1591And therefore by opposites:--then folly is the opposite of temperance?
1591And these base fears and confidences originate in ignorance and uninstructedness?
1591And they are all different from one another?
1591And they who do not act rightly act foolishly, and in acting thus are not temperate?
1591And this, as possessing measure, must undeniably also be an art and science?
1591And we admitted also that what was done in opposite ways was done by opposites?
1591And we said that everything has only one opposite?
1591And what am I doing?
1591And what is good and honourable, I said, is also pleasant?
1591And what is that which the Sophist knows and makes his disciple know?
1591And what is your purpose?
1591And what sort of well- doing makes a man a good physician?
1591And what will he make of you?
1591And what will they make of you?
1591And what, Socrates, is the food of the soul?
1591And when men act rightly and advantageously they seem to you to be temperate?
1591And when you speak of being overcome--''what do you mean,''he will say,''but that you choose the greater evil in exchange for the lesser good?''
1591And who have confidence when fighting on horseback-- the skilled horseman or the unskilled?
1591And who when fighting with light shields-- the peltasts or the nonpeltasts?
1591And why, I said, do you neither assent nor dissent, Protagoras?
1591And would you wish to begin the enquiry?
1591And you think otherwise?
1591And you would admit the existence of goods?
1591And you would call pleasant, I said, the things which participate in pleasure or create pleasure?
1591Are not all actions honourable and useful, of which the tendency is to make life painless and pleasant?
1591Are these the things which are good but painful?''
1591Are they not the confident?
1591Are you looking to any other standard but pleasure and pain when you call them good?''
1591Are you not of Homer''s opinion, who says''Youth is most charming when the beard first appears''?
1591Are you satisfied, then, at having a life of pleasure which is without pain?
1591Because all men are teachers of virtue, each one according to his ability; and you say Where are the teachers?
1591But does not the courageous man also go to meet the better, and pleasanter, and nobler?
1591But if he lives pleasantly to the end of his life, will he not in that case have lived well?
1591But if there is a contradiction, can the composition be good or true?
1591But shall I tell you a strange thing?
1591But short enough?
1591But some one will ask, Why?
1591But suppose a person were to ask this further question: And how about yourself?
1591But suppose a person were to ask us: In what are the painters wise?
1591But surely courage, I said, is opposed to cowardice?
1591But the fear and confidence of the coward or foolhardy or madman, on the contrary, are base?
1591But what matter?
1591But what sort of doing is good in letters?
1591But what would you like?
1591But which of the two are they who, as you say, are unwilling to go to war, which is a good and honourable thing?
1591But who is to be the umpire?
1591But why then do the sons of good fathers often turn out ill?
1591But why, Socrates, should we trouble ourselves about the opinion of the many, who just say anything that happens to occur to them?
1591By the gods, I said, and are you not ashamed at having to appear before the Hellenes in the character of a Sophist?
1591COMPANION: And do you just come from an interview with him?
1591COMPANION: And is this stranger really in your opinion a fairer love than the son of Cleinias?
1591COMPANION: But have you really met, Socrates, with some wise one?
1591COMPANION: Of what country?
1591COMPANION: Well, and how do matters proceed?
1591COMPANION: What do you mean-- a citizen or a foreigner?
1591COMPANION: What is the meaning of this?
1591COMPANION: Where do you come from, Socrates?
1591Delightful, I said; but what is the news?
1591Did not Simonides first set forth, as his own view, that''Hardly can a man become truly good''?
1591Do I understand you, I said; and is your meaning that you teach the art of politics, and that you promise to make men good citizens?
1591Do they also differ from one another in themselves and in their functions?
1591Do you admit the existence of folly?
1591Do you hear, Protagoras, I asked, what our friend Prodicus is saying?
1591Do you know the poem?
1591Do you think that an unjust man can be temperate in his injustice?
1591Do you wish, he said, to speak with me alone, or in the presence of the company?
1591Does he agree with the common opinion that knowledge is overcome by passion?
1591First of all we admitted that everything has one opposite and not more than one?
1591For Socrates admits his inability to speak long; will Protagoras in like manner acknowledge his inability to speak short?
1591Has Protagoras robbed you of anything?
1591Has anything happened between you and him?
1591Have you been visiting him, and was he gracious to you?
1591He and his fellow- workmen have taught them to the best of their ability,--but who will carry them further in their arts?
1591How is this to be reconciled?
1591How should we answer him, Socrates?
1591How so?
1591How then can I do otherwise than invite you to the examination of these subjects, and ask questions and consult with you?
1591I knew his voice, and said: Hippocrates, is that you?
1591I know that Pheidias is a sculptor, and that Homer is a poet; but what appellation is given to Protagoras?
1591I proceeded: Is not a Sophist, Hippocrates, one who deals wholesale or retail in the food of the soul?
1591I said: I wonder whether you know what you are doing?
1591I said: You would admit, Protagoras, that some men live well and others ill?
1591I said; or shall I begin?
1591I want to know whether you still think that there are men who are most ignorant and yet most courageous?
1591I, who knew the very courageous madness of the man, said: What is the matter?
1591If I am not mistaken the question was this: Are wisdom and temperance and courage and justice and holiness five names of the same thing?
1591If they succeed, I said, or if they do not succeed?
1591Is Protagoras in Athens?
1591Is not that true, Protagoras?
1591Is not that true?
1591Is not the real explanation that they are out of proportion to one another, either as greater and smaller, or more and fewer?
1591Is that, he will ask, because the good was worthy or not worthy of conquering the evil''?
1591May I employ an illustration?
1591Must not he make him eloquent in that which he understands?
1591Now is that your view?
1591Now when there is all this care about virtue private and public, why, Socrates, do you still wonder and doubt whether virtue can be taught?
1591Now who becomes a bad physician?
1591Once more, I said, is there anything beautiful?
1591Or if a man has one part, must he also have all the others?
1591Or you might ask, Who is to teach the sons of our artisans this same art which they have learned of their fathers?
1591Please to consider: Is there or is there not some one quality of which all the citizens must be partakers, if there is to be a city at all?
1591Protagoras has spoken of the virtues: are they many, or one?
1591SOCRATES: And is not the wiser always the fairer, sweet friend?
1591SOCRATES: What of his beard?
1591Shall I answer what appears to me to be short enough, or what appears to you to be short enough?
1591Shall I, as an elder, speak to you as younger men in an apologue or myth, or shall I argue out the question?
1591Socrates renews the attack from another side: he would like to know whether pleasure is not the only good, and pain the only evil?
1591Suppose again, I said, that the world says to me:''Why do you spend many words and speak in many ways on this subject?''
1591Tell me then; who are they who have confidence when diving into a well?
1591Tell me, Hippocrates, I said, as you are going to Protagoras, and will be paying your money to him, what is he to whom you are going?
1591That is my opinion: would it not be yours also?
1591The honourable work is also useful and good?
1591The world will assent, will they not?
1591Then I proceeded to say: Well, but are you aware of the danger which you are incurring?
1591Then about what does the Sophist make him eloquent?
1591Then against something different?
1591Then as to the motive from which the cowards act, do you call it cowardice or courage?
1591Then do cowards go where there is safety, and the courageous where there is danger?
1591Then every opposite has one opposite only and no more?
1591Then tell me, what do you imagine that he is?
1591Then the ignorance of what is and is not dangerous is cowardice?
1591Then the wisdom which knows what are and are not dangers is opposed to the ignorance of them?
1591Then to act foolishly is the opposite of acting temperately?
1591Then to live pleasantly is a good, and to live unpleasantly an evil?
1591Then we are going to pay our money to him in the character of a Sophist?
1591Then who are the courageous?
1591Then, I said, no other part of virtue is like knowledge, or like justice, or like courage, or like temperance, or like holiness?
1591Then, Protagoras, which of the two assertions shall we renounce?
1591Then, my friends, what do you say to this?
1591Thereupon I should answer to him who asked me, that justice is of the nature of the just: would not you?
1591This admission, which has been somewhat hastily made, is now taken up and cross- examined by Socrates:--''Is justice just, and is holiness holy?
1591To which the only opposite is the evil?
1591To which the only opposite is the grave?
1591To which the only opposite is the ugly?
1591Well then, I said, tell us against what are the courageous ready to go-- against the same dangers as the cowards?
1591What did he mean, Prodicus, by the term''hard''?
1591What do you mean?
1591What does he think of knowledge?
1591What else would you say?
1591What other answer could there be but that he presides over the art which makes men eloquent?
1591What will Protagoras make of you, if you go to see him?
1591What would you say?
1591When you speak of brave men, do you mean the confident, or another sort of nature?
1591Which of these two assertions shall we renounce?
1591Which you would also acknowledge to be a thing-- should we not say so?
1591Who is so foolish as to chastise or instruct the ugly, or the diminutive, or the feeble?
1591Why do I say all this?
1591Why, he said, how can he be consistent in both?
1591Will Protagoras answer these objections?
1591Will you be so good?
1591Would not mankind generally acknowledge that the art which accomplishes this result is the art of measurement?
1591Would not the art of measuring be the saving principle; or would the power of appearance?
1591Would they still be evil, if they had no attendant evil consequences, simply because they give the consciousness of pleasure of whatever nature?''
1591Would you not admit, my friends, that this is true?
1591Would you not answer in the same way?
1591Yes, I replied; he came two days ago: have you only just heard of his arrival?
1591You might as well ask, Who teaches Greek?
1591You think that some men are temperate, and yet unjust?
1591You would not deny, then, that courage and wisdom are also parts of virtue?
1591You, Socrates, are discontented, and why?
1591and about what?
1591and do you bring any news?
1591and do you call the latter good?
1591and do you maintain that one part of virtue is unlike another, and is this your position?''
1591and in causing poverty do they not cause pain;--they would agree to that also, if I am not mistaken?
1591and what sort of doing makes a man good in letters?
1591and what will he make of you?
1591and why do you give them this money?--how would you have answered?
1591and why have you come hither at this unearthly hour?
1591are they parts of a whole, or different names of the same thing?
1591he said: how am I to shorten my answers?
1591how is he designated?
1591how would you have answered?
1591or does he hold that knowledge is power?
1591or shall I repeat the whole?
1591shall I make them too short?
8438Treason doth never prosper, what''s the reason? 8438 Why will he want it on the supposition that it is not good?
8438( 2) What then is a"moral virtue,"the result of such a process duly directed?
84381110b What kind of actions then are to be called compulsory?
843812,"What man is he that lusteth to live?"
8438Again, if any and every thing is the object- matter of Imperfect and Perfect Self- Control, who is the man of Imperfect Self- Control simply?
8438Again: how does the involuntariness make any difference between wrong actions done from deliberate calculation, and those done by reason of anger?
8438And again, if we are to maintain this position, is a man then happy when he is dead?
8438And as for actions of perfected self- mastery, what can theirs be?
8438And for a test of the formation of the habits we must[ Sidenote(?
8438And he is the strongest case of this error who is really a man of great worth, for what would he have done had his worth been less?
8438And how can it be a Generation?
8438And next, are cases of being unjustly dealt with to be ruled all one way as every act of unjust dealing is voluntary?
8438And yet this rule may admit of exceptions; for instance, which is the higher duty?
8438Answers are given both to the psychological question,"What is Pleasure?"
8438Are we then to break with him instantly?
8438Are we then to call no man happy while he lives, and, as Solon would have us, look to the end?
8438Are we then to make our friends as numerous as possible?
8438But how stands the fact?
8438But must they not add that the feeling must be mutually known?
8438But on what sort of life is such activity possible?
8438But the question next arises, what kind of goods are we to call independent?
8438But then, how does the name come to be common( for it is not seemingly a case of fortuitous equivocation)?
8438But then, what do they mean whom we quoted first, and how are they right?
8438But to the man of Imperfect Self- Control would apply the proverb,"when water chokes, what should a man drink then?"
8438But what are"right"acts?
8438But where can this be done, if there be no community?
8438But why give materials and instruments, if there is no work to do?
8438He therefore acts Unjustly: but towards whom?
8438How can a man know what is good or best for him, and yet chronically fail to act upon his knowledge?
8438How is it then that no one feels Pleasure continuously?
8438If all this be true, how will Virtue be a whit more voluntary than Vice?
8438If so, we ask, why are the contrary Pains bad?
8438If the former, does he mean positive happiness( a)?
8438In fact it is what we all, wise and simple, agree in naming"Happiness"( Welfare or Well- being) In what then does happiness consist?
8438In like manner whether one should do a service rather to one''s friend or to a good man?
8438In what life can man find the fullest satisfaction for his desires?
8438Is it not that the mass of mankind mean by Friends those who are useful?
8438Is it not"that for the sake of which the other things are done?"
8438Is not this the answer?
8438Is not this the reason?
8438Is not this the solution?
8438Is the[ Greek: phronimos] forming plans to attain some particular End?
8438May it not be answered, that they share in them only in so far as they please themselves, and conceive themselves to be good?
8438May we not say it is impossible?
8438May we not say that the necessary bodily Pleasures are good in the sense in which that which is not- bad is good?
8438May we not say then, it is"that voluntary which has passed through a stage of previous deliberation?"
8438May we not say, that as utility is the motive of the Friendship the advantage conferred on the receiver must be the standard?
8438Men such as these then what mere words can transform?
8438Must we not admit that the Political Science plainly does not stand on a similar footing to that of other sciences and faculties?
8438Or again, may we not say that Pleasures differ in kind?
8438Or how can it be kept or preserved without friends?
8438Or must we dispute the statements lately made, and not say that Man is the originator or generator of his actions as much as of his children?
8438Rhetorica, A summary by T Hobbes, 1655(?
8438Since then it is none of the aforementioned things, what is it, or how is it characterised?
8438The cobbler is at his last, why?
8438The question then arises, who is to fix the rate?
8438The"moral virtues and vices"make up what we call character, and the important questions arise:( 1) What is character?
8438This leads us back to the question, What is happiness?
8438VII And now let us revert to the Good of which we are in search: what can it be?
8438Well then, is it Practical Wisdom which in this case offers opposition: for that is the strongest principle?
8438What else would you expect?
8438What is there then of such a nature?
8438What kind of fearful things then do constitute the object- matter of the Brave man?
8438What makes[ Greek: nous] to be a true guide?
8438What then can this be?
8438What then is the Chief Good in each?
8438XI Again: are friends most needed in prosperity or in adversity?
8438[ Sidenote: IX] A question is raised also respecting the Happy man, whether he will want Friends, or no?
8438and to the ethical question,"What is its value?"
8438and( 2) How is it formed?
8438and,"Is there but one species of Friendship, or several?"
8438because, assuming that Pleasure is not good, then Pain is neither evil nor good, and so why should he avoid it?
8438but to whom shall they be giving?
8438he admits[ Greek: gnomae] to temper the strictness of justness-- is he applying general Rules to particular cases?
8438he is exercising[ Greek: nous praktikos] or[ Greek: agsthaesis]--while in each and all he is[ Greek: phronimos]?
8438he is then[ Greek: euboulos]--is he passing under review the suggestions of others?
8438he is[ Greek: sunetos]--is he judging of the acts of others?
8438must it not be in the most honourable?
8438nay, will they not be set in a ridiculous light if represented as forming contracts, and restoring deposits, and so on?
8438next, can a man deal unjustly by himself?
8438or does it come in fact to this, that we can call nothing independent good except the[ Greek: idea], and so the concrete of it will be nought?
8438or is not this a complete absurdity, specially in us who say Happiness is a working of a certain kind?
8438or liberal ones?
8438or may we not say at once it is impossible?
8438or may we say that some cases are voluntary and some involuntary?
8438or only freedom from unhappiness([ Greek: B])?
8438or that they are good only up to a certain point?
8438or will not such a definition be vague, since different things are hateful and pleasant to different men?
8438or, in an election of a general, the warlike qualities of the candidates should be alone regarded?
8438or, in other words, what is the highest of all the goods which are the objects of action?
8438the man who first gives, or the man who first takes?
8438those of justice?
8438well then, shall we picture them performing brave actions, withstanding objects of fear and meeting dangers, because it is noble to do so?
8438whether one should rather requite a benefactor or give to one''s companion, supposing that both are not within one''s power?
8438would it not be a degrading praise that they have no bad desires?
47236O Menander and life,said the grammarian of Alexandria,"which of you is the imitator of the other?"

47236Ah, luckless soul, why will you fly So near the toils that Love had wrought?"
47236An old man''s heart Deserves some pity.--What pity can I claim If I betray the land that gave me birth?
47236And what can be more ingeniously pathetic than the_ nuances_ of feeling expressed in these lines?
47236And where, if not here, shall we meet with Hylas and Hyacinth, with Ganymede and Hymenæus, in the flesh?
47236And yet why grieve I thus, seeing my life Laid desolate, despitefully abandoned By those who least should leave me?
47236Are not the colors of the autumn in harmony with the tints of spring?
47236Are our passions purged in any definite sense by the close of the first part of_ Faust_?
47236But in your hand that razor?
47236But what is the prospect unrolled before us by science?
47236Can you ne''er your tongue restrain, And allow soft slumber''s kiss To refresh his fevered brain?
47236Did I not warn you?
47236Did you not know?
47236Do I wish to reap The scorn that springs from enemies unpunished?
47236Do we in fact behold the mystic snake, or in the twilight do those lustrous orange- trees deceive our eyes?

47236How can we, then, bridge over the gulf which separates us from the Greeks?
47236How journeyed I?
47236How shall I, Brotherless, friendless, fatherless, alone, Live on?
47236How, in the last place, are we to distinguish Love from Harpocrates, the silent, with one finger on his lip?
47236How, it is always asked, could Aristophanes have been so consciously unjust to the great moralist of Athens?
47236How, then, should I be so life- loving as to shrink?
47236In death there dwells the end of human strife; For what mid men than death is mightier?
47236In what member lies its lair?
47236Is it a dream?
47236Is it not right that I Should toil?
47236Is it our hands, our entrails, or our eyes That harbor it?
47236Is this equivalent to# rhêtrais#, as Cicero, who renders it by_ legibus_, seems to think?
47236It also may explain the Greek proverb:"What has this to do with Dionysus?"
47236It is even said that the country ditties of the Neapolitans are Greek; and how ancient is the origin of local superstitions who shall say?

47236Without toil who was ever famous?

2562A horse?
2562A sword?
2562About measures, or rhythms, or verses?
2562About what?
2562According to the dactyle?
2562Ah me, what then, pray will become of me, wretched man?
2562Alektryaina?
2562Am I to feed upon wisdom like a dog?
2562And do you now intend, on this account, to deny the debt?
2562And do you then ask me for your money, being such an ignorant person?
2562And for what did you come?
2562And how then, you wretch does this become no way greater, though the rivers flow into it, while you seek to increase your money?
2562And if he be a blackguard, what harm will he suffer?
2562And so you look down upon the gods from your basket, and not from the earth?
2562And to hold converse with the Clouds, our divinities?
2562And what does it mean?
2562And what this?
2562And what, pray, have you thought?
2562And will you be willing to deny these upon oath of the gods?
2562And will you obey me at all?
2562And yet, how could you, who are a mortal, have greater power than a god?
2562And yet, on what principle do you blame the warm baths?
2562And yet, what is life worth to you if you be deprived of these enjoyments?
2562And yet, who was more valiant than he?
2562And you appear to me, by Hermes, to be going to be summoned, if you will not pay me the money?
2562Are they not males with you?
2562Are they some heroines?
2562Are you asleep?
2562Are you not meditating?
2562Both the same?
2562But come, by the Earth, is not Jupiter, the Olympian, a god?
2562But do you permit him?
2562But from what class do the public orators come?
2562But what debt came upon me after Pasias?
2562But what good will rhythms do me for a living?
2562But what if he should suffer the radish through obeying you, and be depillated with hot ashes?
2562But what if, having the worst Cause, I shall conquer you in arguing, proving that it is right to beat one''s mother?
2562But what is this?
2562But what of that?
2562But where is Lacedaemon?
2562But why in the world do these look upon the ground?
2562But why should I learn these things, that we all know?
2562By doing what clever trick?
2562By iron money, as in Byzantium?
2562By no means; for how would you call Amynias, if you met him?
2562By the gods, do you purpose to besiege me?
2562By what do you swear?
2562By what gods will you swear?
2562Can not it?
2562Come now, which of the two shall speak first?
2562Come now; what do you now wish to learn first of those things in none of which you have ever been instructed?
2562Come, how am I to believe this?
2562Come, let me see: nay, what was the first?
2562Come, let me see; what do I owe?
2562Come, let me see; what do you consider this to be?
2562Come, let me see; what do you do if any one beat you?
2562Come, now, tell me; from what class do the advocates come?
2562Come, tell me, which of the sons of Jupiter do you deem to have been the bravest in soul, and to have undergone most labours?
2562Come, where have you ever seen him raining at any time without Clouds?
2562Come, who is this man who is in the basket?
2562Did you hear the voice, and the thunder which bellowed at the same time, feared as a god?
2562Did you learn these clever things by going in just now to the Titans?
2562Did you not, however, know, nor yet consider, these to be goddesses?
2562Do I talk nonsense if I wish to recover my money?
2562Do you abuse your teacher?
2562Do you beat your father?
2562Do you beat your father?
2562Do you fly?
2562Do you know that I take pleasure in being much abused?
2562Do you mean the burning- glass?
2562Do you not hear?
2562Do you perceive that you are soon to obtain the greatest benefits through us alone of the gods?
2562Do you see this little door and little house?
2562Do you see what you are doing?
2562Do you see?
2562Do you see?
2562Do you wish to know clearly celestial matters, what they rightly are?
2562Does meditation attract the moisture to the water- cresses?
2562Even if witnesses were present when I borrowed the money?
2562For come, where is it?
2562For ought you not then immediately to be beaten and trampled on, bidding me sing, just as if you were entertaining cicadae?
2562For what has come into your heads that you acted insolently toward the gods, and pried into the seat of the moon?
2562For what matter do you summon me?
2562For what now was the first thing you were taught?
2562For what purpose a chaplet?
2562For what, pray, is the thunderbolt?
2562For what, pray, shall I weep?
2562For why ought your body to be exempt from blows and mine not?
2562From what class do tragedians come?
2562Have I done any wrong?
2562Have you arrived at such a pitch of frenzy that you believe madmen?
2562Have you ever seen this stone in the chemist''s shops, the beautiful and transparent one, from which they kindle fire?
2562Have you ever, when you; looked up, seen a cloud like to a centaur, or a panther, or a wolf, or a bull?
2562Have you got anything?
2562Have you not heard me, that I said that the Clouds, when full of moisture, dash against each other and clap by reason of their density?
2562How can this youth ever learn an acquittal from a trial or a legal summons, or persuasive refutation?
2562How did you get in debt without observing it?
2562How many courses will the war- chariots run?
2562How now ought I to call them?
2562How ought I to call it henceforth?
2562How then can I awake him in the most agreeable manner?
2562How then did he measure this?
2562How then is it just that you should recover your money, if you know nothing of meteorological matters?
2562How would I call?
2562How, pray?
2562How, pray?
2562How, then, being an old man, shall I learn the subtleties of refined disquisitions?
2562How, then, if justice exists, has Jupiter not perished, who bound his own father?
2562How, then, will you be able to learn?
2562How?
2562How?
2562How?
2562How?
2562How?
2562I do not ask you this, but which you account the most beautiful measure; the trimetre or the tetrameter?
2562I will be silent: what else can I do?
2562I will pass over to that part of my discourse where you interrupted me; and first I will ask you this: Did you beat me when I was a boy?
2562I''ll lay on you, goading you behind, you outrigger?
2562I?
2562If I be diligent and learn zealously, to which of your disciples shall I become like?
2562In what then, pray, shall I obey you?
2562In what way do I make kardopos masculine?
2562In what way?
2562In what way?
2562Is it for this reason, pray, that you have also lost your cloak?
2562Is it not Jupiter?
2562Is it not just, however, that they should have their reward, on account of these?
2562Is it not then with justice, who does not serve in the army?
2562Is it possible that you consider the sea to be greater now than formerly?
2562Is not this an insult, pray?
2562Is the power of speaking, pray, implanted in your nature?
2562Just Do you deny that it exists?
2562Kardope in the feminine?
2562My good sir, what is the matter with you, O father?
2562Nay, what could he ever suffer still greater than this?
2562Nay, what was the thing in which we knead our flour?
2562Nothing at all?
2562O Hercules, from what country are these wild beasts?
2562Of what description?
2562Of what kind?
2562Of what two Causes?
2562Oh, what shall I call you?
2562Pasias( entering with his summons- witness) Then, ought a man to throw away any part of his own property?
2562Phidippides, my little Phidippides?
2562Pray where?
2562Pray, of what nature are they?
2562Proceed; why do you keep poking about the door?
2562Seest thou, then, how good a thing is learning?
2562Shall I bring him into court and convict him of lunacy, or shall I give information of his madness to the coffin- makers?
2562Shall I then ever see this?
2562Tell me now, what do you prescribe?
2562Tell me now, whether you think that Jupiter always rains fresh rain on each occasion, or that the sun draws from below the same water back again?
2562Tell me what is this?
2562Tell me, O Socrates, I beseech you, by Jupiter, who are these that have uttered this grand song?
2562Tell me, by doing what?
2562Tell me, do you love me?
2562Tell me, pray, if they are really clouds, what ails them, that they resemble mortal women?
2562Tell us then boldly, what we must do for you?
2562Tell us what you require?
2562The better, or the worse?
2562The boys weep, and do you not think it is right that a father should weep?
2562Then have you perceived that you say nothing to the purpose?
2562Then what shall I gain, pray?
2562Then wo n''t you pay me?
2562To what do they seem to you to be like?
2562Vortex?
2562Was it not then a man like you and me, who first proposed this law, and by speaking persuaded the ancients?
2562Well, what is it?
2562Were you ever, after being stuffed with broth at the Panathenaic festival, then disturbed in your belly, and did a tumult suddenly rumble through it?
2562Were you not therefore justly beaten, who do not praise Euripides, the wisest of poets?
2562What Jupiter?
2562What ails you?
2562What am I doing?
2562What are you about?
2562What are you doing, fellow?
2562What are you doing, pray, you fellow on the roof?
2562What argument will he be able to state, to prove that he is not a blackguard?
2562What belongs to an allotment?
2562What do you say?
2562What do you say?
2562What do you say?
2562What do you say?
2562What do you think he will do?
2562What do you wonder at?
2562What else but this finger?
2562What evil, pray, has Tlepolemus ever done you?
2562What gods?
2562What good could any one learn from them?
2562What good, pray, would this do you?
2562What have you made of your slippers, you foolish man?
2562What is this?
2562What money is this?
2562What must I do?
2562What must I do?
2562What names are masculine?
2562What say you?
2562What shall I do, my father being crazed?
2562What shall I experience?
2562What sort of animal is this interest?
2562What then did he contrive for provisions?
2562What then is the use of this?
2562What then will you say if you be conquered by me in this?
2562What then would you say if you heard another contrivance of Socrates?
2562What then, pray, is this, father?
2562What then?
2562What then?
2562What then?
2562What then?
2562What then?
2562What was it?
2562What was the fist?
2562What''s the matter?
2562What''s the matter?
2562What, father?
2562What, old man?
2562What, pray, do you fear?
2562What, really?
2562What, then, did he say about the gnat?
2562What, then, do you see?
2562What, then, will you say?
2562What?
2562What?
2562What?
2562Where is Strepsiades?
2562Where is it?
2562Where is this man who asks me for his money?
2562Where, pray, did you ever see cold Herculean baths?
2562Who are they?
2562Who are you?
2562Who is it that compels them to borne along?
2562Who it is that knocked at the door?
2562Who rains then?
2562Who says this?
2562Who then?
2562Who''s"Himself"?
2562Who, O shameless fellow, reared you, understanding all your wishes, when you lisped what you meant?
2562Whoever is this, who is lamenting?
2562Why are you distressed?
2562Why callest thou me, thou creature of a day?
2562Why did I borrow them?
2562Why did you light the thirsty lamp?
2562Why do you delay?
2562Why do you talk foolishly?
2562Why do you talk nonsense?
2562Why so, pray?
2562Why so?
2562Why then do we admire Thales?
2562Why then does their rump look toward heaven?
2562Why then is it less lawful for me also in turn to propose henceforth a new law for the sons, that they should beat their fathers in turn?
2562Why then, since you imitate the cocks in all things, do you not both eat dung and sleep on a perch?
2562Why thus do I loiter and not knock at the door?
2562Why twelve minae to Pasias?
2562Why, how can it be just to beat a father?
2562Why, how with justice?
2562Why, how, when my money is gone, my complexion gone, my life gone, and my slipper gone?
2562Why, how?
2562Why, is any day old and new?
2562Why, is there any Jove?
2562Why, pray, did he add the old day?
2562Why, pray, did you laugh at this?
2562Why, pray, did you not tell me this, then, but excited with hopes a rustic and aged man?
2562Why, pray, do you talk nonsense, as if you had fallen from an ass?
2562Why, pray?
2562Why, then, do the magistrates not receive the deposits on the new moon, but on the Old and New?
2562Why, what are these doing, who are bent down so much?
2562Why, what else, than chopping logic with the beams of your house?
2562Why, what good should I get else from his instruction?
2562Why, what shall I learn?
2562Why, what, if they should see Simon, a plunderer of the public property, what do they do?
2562Why, where are my fellow- tribesmen of Cicynna?
2562Will it never be day?
2562Will you move quickly?
2562Will you not pack off to the devil, you most forgetful and most stupid old man?
2562Will you not quickly cover yourself up and think of something?
2562Will you not take yourself off from my house?
2562Will you not then pack off as fast as possible from my door?
2562Will you not, pray, now believe in no god, except what we believe in-- this Chaos, and the Clouds, and the Tongue-- these three?
2562Will you overcome me in this?
2562Wo n''t you march, Mr. Blood- horse?
2562Yes, by Jupiter, with justice?
2562You destroy me?
2562whether do you wish to take and lead away this your son, or shall I teach him to speak?
1598''And are you an ox because you have an ox present with you?''
1598''And dictation is a dictation of letters?''
1598''And do they learn,''said Euthydemus,''what they know or what they do not know?''
1598''And he is not wise yet?''
1598''And what did you think of them?''
1598''And you acquire that which you have not got already?''
1598''And you know letters?''
1598''And you see our garments?''
1598''But are there any beautiful things?
1598''But,''retorts Dionysodorus,''is not learning acquiring knowledge?''
1598''Cleinias,''says Euthydemus,''who learn, the wise or the unwise?''
1598''Crito,''said he to me,''are you giving no attention to these wise men?''
1598''Do they know shoemaking, etc?''
1598''Do you see,''retorts Euthydemus,''what has the quality of vision or what has not the quality of vision?''
1598''Is a speaking of the silent possible?
1598''What did I think of them?''
1598''What does the word"non- plussed"mean?''
1598''What was that?''
1598''You want Cleinias to be wise?''
1598A noble man or a mean man?
1598A weak man or a strong man?
1598All letters?
1598Am I not right?
1598Am I not right?
1598Amid the dangers of the sea, again, are any more fortunate on the whole than wise pilots?
1598And a coward would do less than a courageous and temperate man?
1598And a slow man less than a quick; and one who had dull perceptions of seeing and hearing less than one who had keen ones?
1598And an indolent man less than an active man?
1598And are not good things good, and evil things evil?
1598And are not health and beauty goods, and other personal gifts?
1598And are not the scribes most fortunate in writing and reading letters?
1598And are not these gods animals?
1598And are those who acquire those who have or have not a thing?
1598And are you an ox because an ox is present with you, or are you Dionysodorus, because Dionysodorus is present with you?
1598And being other than a stone, you are not a stone; and being other than gold, you are not gold?
1598And can any one do anything about that which has no existence, or do to Cleinias that which is not and is nowhere?
1598And can he vault among swords, and turn upon a wheel, at his age?
1598And clearly we do not want the art of the flute- maker; this is only another of the same sort?
1598And did you always know this?
1598And did you not say that you knew something?
1598And do all other men know all things or nothing?
1598And do the Scythians and others see that which has the quality of vision, or that which has not?
1598And do they speak great things of the great, rejoined Euthydemus, and warm things of the warm?
1598And do you know of any word which is alive?
1598And do you know stitching?
1598And do you know things such as the numbers of the stars and of the sand?
1598And do you know with what you know, or with something else?
1598And do you please?
1598And do you really and truly know all things, including carpentering and leather- cutting?
1598And do you suppose that gold is not gold, or that a man is not a man?
1598And doing is making?
1598And gudgeons and puppies and pigs are your brothers?
1598And have not other Athenians, he said, an ancestral Zeus?
1598And have you no need, Euthydemus?
1598And have you not admitted that those who do not know are of the number of those who have not?
1598And have you not admitted that you always know all things with that which you know, whether you make the addition of''when you know them''or not?
1598And he has puppies?
1598And he is not wise as yet?
1598And he who says that thing says that which is?
1598And he who tells, tells that thing which he tells, and no other?
1598And if a man does his business he does rightly?
1598And if a person had wealth and all the goods of which we were just now speaking, and did not use them, would he be happy because he possessed them?
1598And if there are such, are they the same or not the same as absolute beauty?''
1598And if we knew how to convert stones into gold, the knowledge would be of no value to us, unless we also knew how to use the gold?
1598And if you were engaged in war, in whose company would you rather take the risk-- in company with a wise general, or with a foolish one?
1598And if you were ill, whom would you rather have as a companion in a dangerous illness-- a wise physician, or an ignorant one?
1598And in telling a lie, do you tell the thing of which you speak or not?
1598And is Patrocles, he said, your brother?
1598And is he not yours?
1598And is that fair?
1598And is that something, he rejoined, always the same, or sometimes one thing, and sometimes another thing?
1598And is this true?
1598And knowing is having knowledge at the time?
1598And may a person use them either rightly or wrongly?
1598And may there not be a silence of the speaker?
1598And not knowing is not having knowledge at the time?
1598And now answer: Do you always know with this?
1598And now, O son of Axiochus, let me put a question to you: Do not all men desire happiness?
1598And philosophy is the acquisition of knowledge?
1598And please to tell me whether you intend to exhibit your wisdom; or what will you do?
1598And seeing that in war to have arms is a good thing, he ought to have as many spears and shields as possible?
1598And should we be any the better if we went about having a knowledge of the places where most gold was hidden in the earth?
1598And should we be happy by reason of the presence of good things, if they profited us not, or if they profited us?
1598And so Chaeredemus, he said, being other than a father, is not a father?
1598And speaking is doing and making?
1598And surely, in the manufacture of vessels, knowledge is that which gives the right way of making them?
1598And tell me, I said, O tell me, what do possessions profit a man, if he have neither good sense nor wisdom?
1598And that is a distinct thing apart from other things?
1598And that is impossible?
1598And that which is not is nowhere?
1598And the business of the cook is to cut up and skin; you have admitted that?
1598And the dog is the father of them?
1598And they are the teachers of those who learn-- the grammar- master and the lyre- master used to teach you and other boys; and you were the learners?
1598And to have money everywhere and always is a good?
1598And was Sophroniscus a father, and Chaeredemus also?
1598And were you not just now saying that you could teach virtue best of all men, to any one who was willing to learn?
1598And were you wise then?
1598And what does that signify?
1598And what is your notion?
1598And what knowledge ought we to acquire?
1598And what other goods are there?
1598And what things do we esteem good?
1598And when you were learners you did not as yet know the things which you were learning?
1598And who has to kill and skin and mince and boil and roast?
1598And who would do least-- a poor man or a rich man?
1598And whose the making of pots?
1598And why should you say so?
1598And would not you, Crito, say the same?
1598And would they profit us, if we only had them and did not use them?
1598And would you arm Geryon and Briareus in that way?
1598And would you be able, Socrates, to recognize this wisdom when it has become your own?
1598And would you be happy if you had three talents of gold in your belly, a talent in your pate, and a stater in either eye?''
1598And yet, perhaps, I was right after all in saying that words have a sense;--what do you say, wise man?
1598And you admit gold to be a good?
1598And you admitted that of animals those are yours which you could give away or sell or offer in sacrifice, as you pleased?
1598And you also see that which has the quality of vision?
1598And you say that gentlemen speak of things as they are?
1598And your mother, too, is the mother of all?
1598And your papa is a dog?
1598Are the things which have sense alive or lifeless?
1598Are you not ashamed, Socrates, of asking a question when you are asked one?
1598Are you not other than a stone?
1598Are you prepared to make that good?
1598Are you saying this as a paradox, Dionysodorus; or do you seriously maintain no man to be ignorant?
1598At any rate they are yours, he said, did you not admit that?
1598Bravo Heracles, or is Heracles a Bravo?
1598But are you quite sure about this, Dionysodorus and Euthydemus?
1598But can a father be other than a father?
1598But can we contradict one another, said Dionysodorus, when both of us are describing the same thing?
1598But can wisdom be taught?
1598But did you carry the search any further, and did you find the art which you were seeking?
1598But how can I refute you, if, as you say, to tell a falsehood is impossible?
1598But how, he said, by reason of one thing being present with another, will one thing be another?
1598But if he can not speak falsely, may he not think falsely?
1598But if you were not wise you were unlearned?
1598But suppose, I said, that we were to learn the art of making speeches-- would that be the art which would make us happy?
1598But what need is there of good fortune when we have wisdom already:--in every art and business are not the wise also the fortunate?
1598But when I describe something and you describe another thing, or I say something and you say nothing-- is there any contradiction?
1598But when the teacher dictates to you, does he not dictate letters?
1598But when you speak of stones, wood, iron bars, do you not speak of the silent?
1598But why should I repeat the whole story?
1598CRITO: And did Euthydemus show you this knowledge?
1598CRITO: And do you mean, Socrates, that the youngster said all this?
1598CRITO: And were you not right, Socrates?
1598CRITO: But, Socrates, are you not too old?
1598CRITO: How did that happen, Socrates?
1598CRITO: Well, and what came of that?
1598CRITO: What do you say of them, Socrates?
1598CRITO: Who was the person, Socrates, with whom you were talking yesterday at the Lyceum?
1598CRITO: Why not, Socrates?
1598Can there be any doubt that good birth, and power, and honours in one''s own land, are goods?
1598Certainly; did you think we should say No to that?
1598Ctesippus, here taking up the argument, said: And is not your father in the same case, for he is other than my father?
1598Did we not agree that philosophy should be studied?
1598Do those, said he, who learn, learn what they know, or what they do not know?
1598Do you agree with me?
1598Do you agree?
1598Do you know something, Socrates, or nothing?
1598Do you not know letters?
1598Do you not remember?
1598Do you suppose the same person to be a father and not a father?
1598Do you, Dionysodorus, maintain that there is not?
1598Does it not supply us with the fruits of the earth?
1598Does not your omniscient brother appear to you to have made a mistake?
1598Euthydemus answered: And that which is not is not?
1598Euthydemus proceeded: There are some whom you would call teachers, are there not?
1598Euthydemus replied: And do you think, Ctesippus, that it is possible to tell a lie?
1598For example, if we had a great deal of food and did not eat, or a great deal of drink and did not drink, should we be profited?
1598For example, would a carpenter be any the better for having all his tools and plenty of wood, if he never worked?
1598For tell me now, is not learning acquiring knowledge of that which one learns?
1598For then neither of us says a word about the thing at all?
1598Here Ctesippus was silent; and I in my astonishment said: What do you mean, Dionysodorus?
1598How can he who speaks contradict him who speaks not?
1598I can not say that I like the connection; but is he only my father, Euthydemus, or is he the father of all other men?
1598I did, I said; what is going to happen to me?
1598I said, and where did you learn that?
1598I should have far more reason to beat yours, said Ctesippus; what could he have been thinking of when he begat such wise sons?
1598I turned to the other, and said, What do you think, Euthydemus?
1598Is not that your position?
1598Is not the honourable honourable and the base base?
1598Is not this the result-- that other things are indifferent, and that wisdom is the only good, and ignorance the only evil?
1598Is that your difficulty?
1598Is there no such thing as error, ignorance, falsehood?
1598Let me ask you one little question more, said Dionysodorus, quickly interposing, in order that Ctesippus might not get in his word: You beat this dog?
1598Look at the matter thus: If he did fewer things would he not make fewer mistakes?
1598May we not answer with absolute truth-- A knowledge which will do us good?
1598Nay, said Ctesippus, but the question which I ask is whether all things are silent or speak?
1598Nay, take nothing away; I desire no favours of you; but let me ask: Would you be able to know all things, if you did not know all things?
1598Neither did I tell you just now to refute me, said Dionysodorus; for how can I tell you to do that which is not?
1598Now Euthydemus, if I remember rightly, began nearly as follows: O Cleinias, are those who learn the wise or the ignorant?
1598Now in the working and use of wood, is not that which gives the right use simply the knowledge of the carpenter?
1598Of their existence or of their non- existence?
1598Of what country are they, and what is their line of wisdom?
1598Or a speaking of the silent?
1598Or when neither of us is speaking of the same thing?
1598Or would an artisan, who had all the implements necessary for his work, and did not use them, be any the better for the possession of them?
1598Perhaps you may not be ready with an answer?
1598Poseidon, I said, this is the crown of wisdom; can I ever hope to have such wisdom of my own?
1598Quite true, I said; and that I have always known; but the question is, where did I learn that the good are unjust?
1598SOCRATES: And does the kingly art make men wise and good?
1598SOCRATES: And in what will they be good and useful?
1598SOCRATES: And surely it ought to do us some good?
1598SOCRATES: And what does the kingly art do when invested with supreme power?
1598SOCRATES: And what of your own art of husbandry, supposing that to have supreme authority over the subject arts-- what does that do?
1598SOCRATES: And what would you say that the kingly art does?
1598SOCRATES: And will you on this account shun all these pursuits yourself and refuse to allow them to your son?
1598SOCRATES: Are you incredulous, Crito?
1598SOCRATES: But then what is this knowledge, and what are we to do with it?
1598SOCRATES: O Crito, they are marvellous men; but what was I going to say?
1598SOCRATES: There were two, Crito; which of them do you mean?
1598SOCRATES: Well, and do you not see that in each of these arts the many are ridiculous performers?
1598SOCRATES: What, all men, and in every respect?
1598Shall we not be happy if we have many good things?
1598Shall we say, Crito, that it is the knowledge by which we are to make other men good?
1598Tell me, he said, Socrates and the rest of you who say that you want this young man to become wise, are you in jest or in real earnest?
1598Tell me, then, you two, do you not know some things, and not know others?
1598That makes no difference;--and must you not, if you are knowing, know all things?
1598That will do, he said: And would you admit that anything is what it is, and at the same time is not what it is?
1598Then Dionysodorus takes up the ball:''Who are they who learn dictation of the grammar- master; the wise or the foolish boys?''
1598Then are they not animals?
1598Then do you see our garments?
1598Then he is the same?
1598Then if you know all letters, he dictates that which you know?
1598Then in every possession and every use of a thing, knowledge is that which gives a man not only good- fortune but success?
1598Then tell me, he said, do you know anything?
1598Then the good speak evil of evil things, if they speak of them as they are?
1598Then there is no such thing as false opinion?
1598Then there is no such thing as ignorance, or men who are ignorant; for is not ignorance, if there be such a thing, a mistake of fact?
1598Then those who learn are of the class of those who acquire, and not of those who have?
1598Then we must surely be speaking the same thing?
1598Then what are they professing to teach?''
1598Then what is the inference?
1598Then why did you ask me what sense my words had?
1598Then, I said, a man who would be happy must not only have the good things, but he must also use them; there is no advantage in merely having them?
1598Then, I said, you know all things, if you know anything?
1598Then, after a pause, in which he seemed to be lost in the contemplation of something great, he said: Tell me, Socrates, have you an ancestral Zeus?
1598Then, my dear boy, I said, the knowledge which we want is one that uses as well as makes?
1598Then, my good friend, do they all speak?
1598Then, said he, you learn what you know, if you know all the letters?
1598Then, said the other, you do not learn that which he dictates; but he only who does not know letters learns?
1598Upon what principle?
1598Very true, said Ctesippus; and do you think, Euthydemus, that he ought to have one shield only, and one spear?
1598Very well, I said; and where in the company shall we find a place for wisdom-- among the goods or not?
1598Well, Cleinias, but if you have the use as well as the possession of good things, is that sufficient to confer happiness?
1598Well, I said; but then what am I to do?
1598Well, but do rhetoricians, when they speak in the assembly, do nothing?
1598Well, but, Euthydemus, I said, has that never happened to you?
1598Well, have not all things words expressive of them?
1598Well, said he, and so you say that you wish Cleinias to become wise?
1598Were they other than the beautiful, or the same as the beautiful?
1598What am I to do with them?
1598What can make you tell such a lie about me and the others, which I hardly like to repeat, as that I wish Cleinias to perish?
1598What can they see?
1598What do I know?
1598What do you mean, Dionysodorus?
1598What do you mean, I said; do you know nothing?
1598What do you mean?
1598What followed, Crito, how can I rightly narrate?
1598What is that?
1598What is that?
1598What knowledge is there which has such a nature?
1598What marvellous dexterity of wit, I said, enabled you to acquire this great perfection in such a short time?
1598What of that?
1598What proof shall I give you?
1598What then do you say?
1598What then is the result of what has been said?
1598What, I said, are you blessed with such a power as this?
1598What, before you, Dionysodorus?
1598What, he said, do you think that you know what is your own?
1598What, of men only, said Ctesippus, or of horses and of all other animals?
1598What, replied Dionysodorus in a moment; am I the brother of Euthydemus?
1598What, said Ctesippus; then all things are not silent?
1598What, said he, is the business of a good workman?
1598When you and I describe the same thing, or you describe one thing and I describe another, how can there be a contradiction?''
1598When you are silent, said Euthydemus, is there not a silence of all things?
1598When you were children, and at your birth?
1598Whither then shall we go, I said, and to what art shall we have recourse?
1598Why do you laugh, Cleinias, I said, at such solemn and beautiful things?
1598Why do you say so?
1598Why not?
1598Why, Ctesippus, said Dionysodorus, do you mean to say that any one speaks of things as they are?
1598Why, Socrates, said Dionysodorus, did you ever see a beautiful thing?
1598Will you let me see you explaining to the young man how he is to apply himself to the study of virtue and wisdom?
1598Will you not cease adding to your answers?
1598Will you not take our word that we know all things?
1598Will you tell me how many teeth Euthydemus has?
1598With what I know; and I suppose that you mean with my soul?
1598Would a man be better off, having and doing many things without wisdom, or a few things with wisdom?
1598Yes, he said, and you would mean by animals living beings?
1598Yes; and your mother has a progeny of sea- urchins then?
1598You admit that?
1598You agree then, that those animals only are yours with which you have the power to do all these things which I was just naming?
1598You remember, I said, our making the admission that we should be happy and fortunate if many good things were present with us?
1598You then, learning what you did not know, were unlearned when you were learning?
1598You think, I said, that to act with a wise man is more fortunate than to act with an ignorant one?
1598You wish him to be what he is not, and no longer to be what he is?
1598You wish him, he said, to become wise and not, to be ignorant?
1598and if he had fewer misfortunes would he not be less miserable?
1598and teach them all the arts,--carpentering, and cobbling, and the rest of them?
1598and was not that our conclusion?
1598and will you explain how I possess that knowledge for which we were seeking?
1598for you admit that all things which have life are animals; and have not these gods life?
1598has he got to such a height of skill as that?
1598if he made fewer mistakes would he not have fewer misfortunes?
1598or are you the same as a stone?
1598tell me, in the first place, whose business is hammering?
7700... What is that?
77001ST MARKET- LOUNGER What''s this?
77001ST WOMAN Must I never use my wool then?
7700ATHENIANS Can anyone tell us where Lysistrata is?
7700ATHENIANS Tell us then, Spartans, what has brought you here?
7700ATHENIANS Then what will we do?
7700ATHENIANS Then, ah, we''ll choose this snug thing here, Echinus, Shall we call the nestling spot?
7700ATHENIANS What allies?
7700Ah, Strymodorus, who''d have thought affairs could tangle so?
7700Are new privations springing up in Sparta?
7700But if the affair''s so wonderful, tell us, what is it?
7700But what avail will your scheme be if the men Drag us for all our kicking on to the couch?
7700But what has vexed you so?
7700But what of them as well?
7700But when at the last in the streets we heard shouted( everywhere ringing the ominous cry)"Is there no one to help us, no saviour in Athens?"
7700But you''ve not forgotten?
7700CAILONICE But, Lysistrata, What is this oath that we''re to swear?
7700CALONICE And long?
7700CALONICE Anything else?
7700CALONICE But if they should force us?
7700CALONICE But if-- which heaven forbid-- we should refrain As you would have us, how is Peace induced?
7700CALONICE But wo n''t the men March straight against us?
7700CALONICE By Woman?
7700CALONICE How could we do Such a big wise deed?
7700CALONICE Then what will symbolise us?
7700CALONICE Then why are n''t they here?
7700CALONICE What is it all about, dear Lysistrata, That you''ve called the women hither in a troop?
7700CALONICE Yes, but how?
7700CALONICE_ If not, to nauseous water change this wine._ LYSISTRATA Do you all swear to this?
7700CINESIAS I. LYSISTRATA A man?
7700CINESIAS O is that true?
7700CINESIAS There now, do n''t you feel pity for the child?
7700CINESIAS Well, ca n''t your oath perhaps be got around?
7700CINESIAS Who are you that thus eject me?
7700CINESIAS Why some cushions?
7700Come, now from off my back.... Is there no Samos- general to help me to unpack?
7700Did anything new arise?
7700Do n''t you go throb- throb?
7700Do we seem a fearful host?
7700Do ye see our condition?
7700Do you feel a jerking throbbing in the morning?
7700Do you mind that?
7700Does anyone recognise his face?
7700Gorgon- buckler instead the usual platter or dish?
7700HERALD What here gabs the Senate an''the Prytanes?
7700Hail, Spartans how do you fare?
7700I''m coming of my own accord.... Why bars?
7700I''m just drawing off my shoes.... You''re sure you will vote for Peace?
7700In plain sight?
7700Is it from Pan?
7700Is your groin swollen With stress of travelling?
7700LAMPITO But who''s garred this Council o''Women to meet here?
7700LAMPITO Hark, what caterwauling hubbub''s that?
7700LYSISTRATA And what am I to get?
7700LYSISTRATA And what if they do?
7700LYSISTRATA And you?
7700LYSISTRATA Are you not sad your children''s fathers Go endlessly off soldiering afar In this plodding war?
7700LYSISTRATA How is it different?
7700LYSISTRATA How sensible?
7700LYSISTRATA Now what story is this you tell?
7700LYSISTRATA Now, brethren twined with mutual benefactions, Can you still war, can you suffer such disgrace?
7700LYSISTRATA Now, tell me, are the women right to lag?
7700LYSISTRATA Of course.... Well then Where is our Scythianess?
7700LYSISTRATA Then why the helm?
7700LYSISTRATA This girl?
7700LYSISTRATA We must refrain from every depth of love.... Why do you turn your backs?
7700LYSISTRATA What more is lacking?
7700LYSISTRATA What nonsense is this?
7700LYSISTRATA What oath would suit us then?
7700LYSISTRATA What of us then, who ever in vain for our children must weep Borne but to perish afar and in vain?
7700LYSISTRATA What use is Zeus to our anatomy?
7700LYSISTRATA Which one?
7700LYSISTRATA Who is this youngster?
7700LYSISTRATA Why are you blaming us for laying you out?
7700LYSISTRATA Will you truly do it then?
7700LYSISTRATA Yes, why not?
7700LYSISTRATA You too, dear turbot, you that said just now You did n''t mind being split right up in the least?
7700Look, there goes one.... Hey, what''s the hurry?
7700MAGISTRATE Are you a man Or a monstrosity?
7700MAGISTRATE Are you afraid?
7700MAGISTRATE But the old man will often select-- LYSISTRATA O why not finish and die?
7700MAGISTRATE Does not a man age?
7700MAGISTRATE How, may I ask, will your rule re- establish order and justice in lands so tormented?
7700MAGISTRATE If we do n''t want to be saved?
7700MAGISTRATE Is gold then the cause of the war?
7700MAGISTRATE Not for a staff?
7700MAGISTRATE Out with it speedily-- what is this plan that you boast you''ve invented?
7700MAGISTRATE Then why do you hide that lance That sticks out under your arms?
7700MAGISTRATE Then why do you turn aside and hold your cloak So far out from your body?
7700MAGISTRATE Tut tut, what''s here?
7700MAGISTRATE Well, what is it then?
7700MAGISTRATE What did you do?
7700MAGISTRATE What do you mean?
7700MAGISTRATE What madness is this?
7700MAGISTRATE What then is that you propose?
7700MAGISTRATE What will you do if emergencies arise?
7700MAGISTRATE What_ you_ will?
7700MAGISTRATE Whence has this evil come?
7700MAGISTRATE Why do you women come prying and meddling in matters of state touching war- time and peace?
7700MAN Grann''am, do you much mind men?
7700MAN That I fear do you suppose?
7700MEN Ah cursed drab, what have you brought this water for?
7700MEN Cleaner, you dirty slut?
7700MEN Did you hear that insolence?
7700MEN Ho, Phaedrias, shall we put a stop to all these chattering tricks?
7700MEN How may this ferocity be tamed?
7700MEN Is that what''s wrong?
7700MEN What vengeance can you take if with my fists your face I beat?
7700MEN What, sweet?
7700MEN What, you put out my fire?
7700MYRRHINE Are we late, Lysistrata?
7700MYRRHINE But how can I break my oath?
7700MYRRHINE What is the amazing news you have to tell?
7700MYRRHINE What?
7700MYRRHINE Where shall I dress my hair again Before returning to the citadel?
7700MYRRHINE Would you like me to perfume you?
7700Men say we''re slippery rogues-- CALONICE And are n''t they right?
7700Nothing to say?
7700Now what are two legs more or less?
7700O is it something in a blaze?
7700O where''s that girl, Reconciliation?
7700O women, if we would compel the men To bow to Peace, we must refrain-- MYRRHINE From what?
7700Observe my case-- I, a magistrate, come here to draw Money to buy oar- blades, and what happens?
7700See... where are they from?
7700Shall I singe you with my torch?
7700Suppose that now upon their backs we splintered these our sticks?
7700Surely the only enduring moral virtue which can be claimed is for that which moves to more power, beauty and delight in the future?
7700That ruddy glare, that smoky skurry?
7700The plain, hard wood?
7700Then I would say to him,"O my dear husband, why still do they rush on destruction the faster?"
7700WOMAN What is this?
7700WOMAN Where is he, whoever he is?
7700WOMAN Yes, now I see him, but who can he be?
7700WOMEN Dear Mistress of our martial enterprise, Why do you come with sorrow in your eyes?
7700WOMEN So then we scare you, do we?
7700WOMEN So... was it hot?
7700WOMEN Speak; can we help?
7700WOMEN Watered, perhaps you''ll bloom again-- why not?
7700WOMEN What can it be?
7700WOMEN What is your fire for then, you smelly corpse?
7700WOMEN What''s this?
7700WOMEN Yes, yes, what is it?
7700WOMEN You villainous old men, what''s this you do?
7700We can persuade Our men to strike a fair an''decent Peace, But how will ye pitch out the battle- frenzy O''the Athenian populace?
7700What are these black looks for?
7700What do you gape at, wretch, with dazzled eyes?
7700What do you mean?
7700What else is like it, dearest Lysistrata?
7700What is there to prevent you?
7700What is this hard lump here?
7700What kind of an object is it?
7700What''s that rising yonder?
7700What''s the good of argument with such a rampageous pack?
7700Where are you going?
7700Where is that archer?
7700Where is the archer now?
7700Where is the other archer gone?
7700Who are you?
7700Who is this that stands within our lines?
7700Who knows what kind of person may perceive you?
7700Why are you calling me?
7700Why are you staring?
7700Why are your faces blanched?
7700Why do you bite your lips and shake your heads?
7700Why do you weep?
7700Why not be friends?
7700Why not we?
7700Why the noise?
7700Why then delay any longer?
7700Will you or wo n''t you, or what do you mean?
7700Would you hear the words?
7700You ca n''t hide your clear intent, And anyway why not wait till the tenth day Meditating a brazen name for your brass brat?
7700You dotard, because he at no time had lent His intractable ears to absorb from our counsel one temperate word of advice, kindly meant?
7700You''re not deceiving me about the Treaty?
7700Yourself to burn?
7700_ She drinks._ CALONICE Here now, share fair, have n''t we made a pact?
35977( this is the last time I shall use that expression) shall I never see you again?
35977**_ Qua conjugata, que virgo non concupiscebat absentem,& non exardescebat in presentem?
35977After this can I hope God should open to me the treasures of his mercy?
35977Ah?
35977All who are about me admired my virtue, but could their eyes penetrate into my heart, what would they not discover?
35977And do you question either?
35977And love th''offender, yet detest th''offence?
35977And must I use any other prayers than my own to prevail upon you?
35977And what a happiness is it, not to be in a capacity of sinning?
35977And what time shall I find for those prayers you speak of?
35977And yet we can be saved by nothing but the Cross, why then do we refuse to bear it?
35977And, can you believe it,_ Philintus_?
35977Are not interest and policy their only rules?
35977Are these the wishes of my inmost soul?
35977Are we not already sufficiently miserable?
35977But can you be sure marriage will not be the tomb of her love?
35977But do you owe nothing more to us than to that friend, be the friendship between you ever so intimate?
35977But do you,_ Abelard_, never see_ Heloise_ in your sleep?
35977But how barbarous was your punishment?
35977But how difficult is this in the trouble which surrounds me?
35977But how much did my curiosity cost me?
35977But if you do not continue your concern for me, If I lose your affection, what have I gained by my imprisonment?
35977But to what purpose dost thou still arm thyself against me?
35977But what could resist you?
35977But what do I say?
35977But what excuses could I not find in you, if the crime were excusable?
35977But what have I gained by this?
35977But what is there for you to fear?
35977But what secret trouble rises in my soul, what unthought- of motion opposes the resolution I formed of sighing no more for_ Abelard_?
35977But when love has once been sincere, how difficult it is to determine to love no more?
35977But whence, arose that pray''r?
35977But whither am I transported?
35977But whither does my vain imagination carry me?
35977But why should I intreat you in the name of your children?
35977But why should I on others''prayers depend?
35977But why should I rave at your assassins?
35977But, in this article of consolation, how comes it to pass that he makes no mention of_ Heloise_?
35977But, tell me, whence proceeds your neglect of me since my being professed?
35977Can any one sin who is persuaded of this?
35977Can it be criminal for you to imitate St. Jerome, and discourse with me concerning the Scripture?
35977Can not this habit of penitence which I wear interest Heaven to treat me more favourably?
35977Can so heavy a misfortune leave me a moment''s quiet?
35977Can you think that the traces you have drawn in my heart can ever be worn out?
35977Canst thou behold those lovely eyes without recollecting those amorous glances which have been so fatal to thee?
35977Canst thou forget that sad, that solemn day, When victims at yon altar''s foot we lay?
35977Canst thou forget what tears that moment fell, When, warm in youth, I bade the world farewell?
35977Could I not more easily comfort myself in my afflictions?
35977Could an outrageous husband make a villain suffer more that had dishonoured his bed?
35977Could you ever retire but you drew the eyes and hearts of all after you?
35977Could you imagine it possible for any mortal to blot you from my heart?
35977Could you think me guilty of sacrificing the virtuous and learned_ Abelard_ to any other but to God?
35977Did not every one rejoice in having seen you?
35977Did not the apprehension of causing my present death make the pen drop from your hand?
35977Did you write thus to me before Fortune had ruined my happiness?
35977Do fathers consult the inclinations of their children when they settle them?
35977Do n''t you know, that there is no action of life which draws after it so sure and long a repentance, and to so little purpose?
35977Do you now,_ Heloise_, applaud my design of making you walk in the steps of the saints?
35977Do you think learning ought to make_ Heloise_ more amiable?
35977Does thy grace or my own despair draw these words from me?
35977Does_ Abelard_ then, said I, suspect he shall see renewed in me the example of Lot''s wife, who could not forbear looking back when she left Sodom?
35977Dost thou still nourish this destructive flame?
35977For if my conversion was sincere, how could I take a pleasure to relate my past follies?
35977Fulbert surprised me with_ Heloise_, and what man that had a soul in him would not have borne any ignominy on the same conditions?
35977Has Vice such charms to well- born souls?
35977Hath not our Saviour borne it before us, and died for us, to the end that we might also bear it and desire to die also?
35977Have I not tired out his forgiveness?
35977Have not the gentle rules of Peace and Heav''n, From thy soft soul this fatal passion driv''n?
35977Have you purchased your vocation at so slight a rate, as that you should not turn it to the best advantage?
35977How can I do that when you frighten me with apprehensions that continually possess my mind day and night?
35977How can I separate from the person I love the passion I must detest?
35977How did I deceive myself with the hopes that you would be wholly mine when I took the veil, and engaged myself to live for ever under your laws?
35977How difficult is it to fight always for duty against inclination?
35977How happy is the blameless Vestal''s lot?
35977How happy should I be could I wash out with my tears the memory of those pleasures which yet I think of with delight?
35977How little is that?
35977How many ladies laid claim to them?
35977How much better were it entirely to forget the object of it, than to preserve the memory of it, so fatal to the quiet of my life and salvation?
35977How much did I wrong you, and what weakness did I impute to you?
35977How the dear object from the crime remove, Or how distinguish penitence from love?
35977How unhappy am I?
35977How void of reason are men, said Seneca, to make distant evils present by reflection, and to take pains before death to lose all the comforts of life?
35977How weak are we in ourselves, if we do not support ourselves on the cross of Christ?
35977How would my enemies, Champeaux and Anselm, have triumphed, had they seen the redoubted philosopher in such a wretched condition?
35977I could meet him at all his assignations, and would I decline following him to the feats of holiness?
35977I dote on the danger which threatens me, how then can I avoid falling?
35977I have armed my own hands against myself?
35977I have made them in the presence of God; whither shall I fly from his wrath if I violate them?
35977I reproach myself for my own faults, I accuse you for yours, and to what purpose?
35977I said to myself, there was a time when he could rely upon my bare word, and does he now want vows to secure himself of me?
35977I tear myself from all that pleases me?
35977I thought you disengaged and free; And can you still, still sigh and weep for me?
35977I was young;--could she show an infallibility to those vows which my heart never formed for any but herself?
35977I who have not refused to be a victim of pleasure to gratify him, can he think I would refuse to be a sacrifice of honour to obey him?
35977If I had loved pleasures, could I not yet have found means to have gratified myself?
35977If a picture, which is but a mute representation of an object, can give such pleasure, what can not letters inspire?
35977If the memory of him has caused thee so much trouble,_ Heloise_, what will not his presence do?
35977Is it not your part to prepare me, by your powerful exhortations against that great crisis, which shakes the most resolute and confirmed minds?
35977Is it not your part to receive my last sighs; take care of my funeral, and give an account of my manners and faith?
35977Is it possible I should fear obtaining any thing of you, when I ask it in my own name?
35977Is it possible a genius so great as yours should never get above his past misfortunes?
35977Is it possible that_ Abelard_ should in earnest think of marrying_ Heloise_?
35977Is it possible to renounce one''s self entirely at the age of two and twenty?
35977Is it so hard for one who loves to write?
35977Is not your soul ravished at so saving a command?
35977Is this a state of reprobation?
35977Is this discourse directed to my dear_ Abelard_?
35977It is for you for_ Abelard_, that I have resolved to live; if you are ravished from me, what use can I make of my miserable days?
35977Lucille( for that was her name) taking me aside one day, said, What do you intend, brother?
35977Marriage has made such a correspondence lawful; and since you can, without giving the least scandal, satisfy me, why will you not?
35977Might not a small temptation have changed you?
35977Might not a young woman, at the noise of the flames, and the fall of Sodom, look back, and pity some one person?
35977Must I renounce my vows?
35977Must a weak mind fortify one that is so much superior?
35977Must a wife draw on you that punishment which ought not to fall on any but an adulterous lover?
35977My reputation had spread itself every where; and could a virtuous lady resist a man that had confounded all the learned of the age?
35977Nor foes nor fortune take this pow''r away; And is my_ Abelard_ less kind than they?
35977Or did you believe yourself a greater master to teach vice than virtue, or did you think it was more easy to persuade me to the first than the latter?
35977Ought this to seem strange to you, who know how monasteries are filled now- a- days?
35977Our life here is but a languishing death?
35977Our present disgraces are sufficient to employ our thoughts continually, and shall we seek new arguments of grief in futurities?
35977Remember what St._ Paul_ says,_ Art thou loosed from a wife?
35977Shall the laws and customs which the gross and carnal world has invented hold us together more surely than the bonds of mutual affection?
35977Shall this be the fruit of my meditations?
35977Shall we have so little courage, and shall that uncertainty your heart labours with, of serving two masters, affect mine too?
35977Sprung it from piety, or from despair?
35977The wounds I have already received leave no room for new ones; why can not I urge thee to kill me?
35977Then too, when Fate shall thy fair frame destroy?
35977These tender names, can not they move you?
35977Thou dost not give me any respite?
35977Thus those songs will be sung in honour of other women which you designed only for me?
35977Transform''d like these pale swarms that round me move, Of blest insensibles-- who know no love?
35977Was it not the sole view of pleasure which engaged you to me?
35977Was not your Treatise of Divinity condemned to be burnt?
35977Were you not threatened with perpetual imprisonment?
35977What a fool am I to tell you my dreams, who are sensible of these pleasures?
35977What a haven of rest is this to a jealous mind?
35977What a prodigy am I?
35977What a storm was raised against you by the treacherous monks, when you did them the honour to be called their Brother?
35977What abhorrence can I be said to have of my sins, if the objects of them are always amiable to me?
35977What an injury shall I do the Church?
35977What an odd fight will it be to see maids and scholars, desks and cradles, books and distaffs, pens and spindles, one among another?
35977What answer can you make?
35977What can not you induce a heart to, whose weakness you so perfectly know?
35977What country, what city, has not desired your presence?
35977What curse may I not justly fear, should I rob the world of so eminent a person as you are?
35977What did I not say to stop your tears?
35977What did not those two false prophets** accuse you of, who declaimed so severely against you before the Council of Sens?
35977What doth thou say, wretched_ Heloise_?
35977What efforts, what relapses, what agitations, do we undergo?
35977What great advantages would philosophy give us over other men, if by studying it we could learn to govern our passions?
35977What have I not suffered,_ Abelard_, while I kept alive in my retirement those fires which ruined me in the world?
35977What have I to hope for after this loss of you?
35977What means have I not used?
35977What occasion had you to praise me?
35977What occasion have I given him in the whole course of my life to admit the least suspicion?
35977What powerful Deity, what hallow''d Shrine, Can save me from a love, a faith like thine?
35977What progress might one make in the ways of virtue, who is not obliged to fight an enemy for every foot of ground?
35977What recompense can I hope for?
35977What right had a cruel uncle over us?
35977What rivals did your gallantries of this kind occasion me?
35977What scandals were vented on occasion of the name Paraclete given to your chapel?
35977What would the world say should they read your letters as I do?
35977When I am in this condition, why dost not thou, O Lord, pity my weakness, and strengthen me by thy grace?
35977When I but think of this last separation; I feel all the pangs of death; what shall I be then, if I should see this dreadful hour?
35977When I had settled her here, can you believe it,_ Philintus_?
35977When love is liberty, and nature law, All then is full possessing and possess''d, No craving void left akeing in the breast?
35977Where heav''nly- pensive Contemplation dwells, And ever- musing Melancholy reigns; What means this tumult in a Vestal''s veins?
35977Where was I?
35977Where was your_ Heloise_ then?
35977Where, where was_ Eloisa_?
35977Who does not know that it is for the glory of God to find no other foundation in man for his mercy than man''s very weakness?
35977Why did you not deceive me for a while, rather than immediately abandon me?
35977Why do you not deal after this manner with me?
35977Why feels my heart its long- forgotten beat?
35977Why provoke a jealous God by a blasphemy?
35977Why rove my thoughts beyond this last retreat?
35977Why should I conceal from you the secret of my call?
35977Why should I only reap no advantage from your learning?
35977Why should you use eloquence to reproach me for my flight, and for my silence?
35977Why was I born to be the occasion of so tragical an accident?
35977Will it not be more agreeable to me, said she, to see myself your mistress than your wife?
35977Will she not be a woman?
35977Will the tears I shed be sufficient to render it odious to me?
35977Will you have the cruelty to abandon me?
35977Will you marry her then?
35977With what ease did you compose verses?
35977Would I its soft, its tend''rest sense controul?
35977Would I, thus touch''d, this glowing heart refine, To the cold substance of this marble shrine?
35977Would you destroy my piety in its infant- state?
35977Would you have me forsake the convent into which I am but newly entered?
35977Would you have me stifle the inspirations of the Holy Ghost?
35977Ye holy mansions, ye impenetrable retreats, from what numberless apprehensions have you freed me?
35977You are no longer of the world; you have renounced it; I am a Religious, devoted to solitude; shall we make no advantage of our condition?
35977You can not but remember,( for what do not lovers remember?)
35977You have quitted the world, and what object was worthy to detain you there?
35977You may adore all this if you please; but not to flatter you, what is beauty but a flower, which may be blasted by the least fit of sickness?
35977You tell me, that it is for me you live under that veil which covers you; why do you profane your vocation with such words?
35977_ Job_ had no enemy more cruel than his wife: what temptations did he not bear?
35977and do you not wish you could like Magdalen, wash our Saviour''s feet with your tears?
35977and has not my tenderness, by leaving you nothing to wish for, extinguished your desires?
35977and how could you describe them to me?
35977and how long are we tossed in this confusion, unable to exert our reason, to possess our souls, or to rule our affections?
35977and how was I surprised to find the whole letter filled with a particular and melancholy account of our misfortunes?
35977and what a shame and disparagement will it be to you, whom Nature has fitted for the public good, to devote yourself entirely to a wife?
35977and why?
35977and will not love have more power than marriage to keep our hearts firmly united?
35977and, when we have once drank of the cup of sinners, is it with such difficulty that we take the chalice of saints?
35977are you deaf to his voice?
35977are you insensible to words so full of kindness?
35977art thou still the same?
35977at an age which claims the most absolute liberty, could you think the world no longer worthy of your regard?
35977but how humbled ought we to be when we can not master them?
35977can I never free myself from those chains which bind me to him?
35977can my feeble reason resist such powerful assaults?
35977can we dare to offend thee?
35977canst thou view that majestic air of_ Abelard_ without entertaining a jealousy of every one that sees so charming a man?
35977do my words give you any relish for penitence?
35977do you acquaint me with a thing so certain to afflict me?
35977do you doubt?
35977do you entertain her with the same language as formerly when Fulbert committed her to your care?
35977does not the love of_ Heloise_ still burn in my heart_?_ I have not yet triumphed over that happy passion.
35977dost thou know what thou desirest?
35977for what hast thou to dread?
35977hast thou not persecuted me enough?
35977have I not yet triumphed over my love?
35977have you not remorse for your wanderings?
35977how does she appear to you?
35977how far are we from such a happy temper?
35977how much shall I disoblige the learned?
35977how was it possible I should not be certain of your merit?
35977how will it be possible for thee to keep thy reason at the sight of so amiable a man?
35977in what temper did you conceive these mournful ideas?
35977must we aggravate our sorrows?
35977my memory is perpetually filled with bitter remembrances of past evils, and are there more to be feared still?
35977one that practices all those virtues he teaches?
35977or St. Austin, and explain to me the nature of grace?
35977or Tertullian, and preach mortification?
35977or are these the consequences of a long drunkenness in profane love?
35977or dost thou fear, amidst the numerous torments thou heapest on me, dost thou fear that such a stroke would deliver me from all?
35977or how bear up against my grief?
35977or that any length of time can obliterate the memory we have here of your benefits?
35977pursued I, dost thou not almost despair for having rioted in such false pleasure?
35977shall I never have the pleasure of embracing you before death?
35977shall I, to soothe you dry up those tears which the evil spirit makes you shed?
35977shall my_ Abelard_ be never mentioned without tears?
35977shall thy dear name be never spoken but with sighs?
35977shall_ Abelard_ always possess my thoughts?
35977that mouth, which can not be looked upon without desire?
35977what are you to love?
35977what can I then hope for?
35977what can confine me to earth when Death shall have taken away from me all that was dear upon it?
35977what desires will it not excite in thy soul?
35977what disturbance did it occasion?
35977what folly is it to talk at this rate?
35977what lamentations should I make, if Heaven, by a cruel pity, should preserve me till that moment?
35977what means this most cruel and unjust distinction?
35977what other rival could take me from you?
35977when you awake are you pleased or sorry?
35977where is that happy time fled?
35977whither does the excess of passion hurry me?
35977why did you place the name of_ Heloise_ before that of_ Abelard_?
35977will you hasten it?
1738''And is this cycle, of which you are speaking, the reign of Cronos, or our present state of existence?''
1738''But what, Stranger, is the deficiency of which you speak?''
1738''Then why have we laws at all?''
1738''You mean about the golden lamb?''
1738( 4) But are we not exceeding all due limits; and is there not a measure of all arts and sciences, to which the art of discourse must conform?
1738And do we wonder, when the foundation of politics is in the letter only, at the miseries of states?
1738And here I will interpose a question: What are the true forms of government?
1738And if the legislator, or another like him, comes back from a far country, is he to be prohibited from altering his own laws?
1738And no doubt you have heard of the empire of Cronos, and of the earthborn men?
1738Are they not always inciting their country to go to war, owing to their excessive love of the military life?
1738Are they not divided by an interval which no geometrical ratio can express?
1738Are they not three-- monarchy, oligarchy, and democracy?
1738But are any of these governments worthy of the name?
1738But how would you subdivide the herdsman''s art?
1738But is a physician only to cure his patients by persuasion, and not by force?
1738But supposing that he does use some gentle violence for their good, what is this violence to be called?
1738But what shall be done with Theaetetus?
1738But what would be the consequence?
1738But why did we go through this circuitous process, instead of saying at once that weaving is the art of entwining the warp and the woof?
1738Can the many attain to science?
1738Can you remember?
1738Can you, and will you, determine which of them you deem the happier?
1738Do you see why this is?
1738How can we get the greatest intelligence combined with the greatest power?
1738I think, however, that we may fairly assume something of this sort-- YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738Is he a worse physician who uses a little gentle violence in effecting the cure?
1738Is not that true?
1738Is not the definition, although true, wanting in clearness and completeness; for do not all those other arts require to be first cleared away?
1738Is not this the true principle of government, according to which the wise and good man will order the affairs of his subjects?
1738Let us next ask, which of these untrue forms of government is the least bad, and which of them is the worst?
1738May not any man, rich or poor, with or without law, and whether the citizens like or not, do what is for their good?
1738May not any man, rich or poor, with or without laws, with the will of the citizens or against the will of the citizens, do what is for their interest?
1738Might not an idiot, so to speak, know that he is a pedestrian?
1738O my dear Theodorus, do my ears truly witness that this is the estimate formed of them by the great calculator and geometrician?
1738Or ought this science to be the overseer and governor of all the others?
1738Or rather, shall I tell you that the happiness of these children of Cronos must have depended on how they used their time?
1738Or rather, shall we not first ask, whether the king, statesman, master, householder, practise one art or many?
1738Or shall we assign to him the art of command-- for he is a ruler?
1738Or shall we say, that the violence is just, if exercised by a rich man, and unjust, if by a poor man?
1738Ought we not rather to admire the strength of the political bond?
1738Ought we not rather to wonder at the natural strength of the political bond?
1738SOCRATES: Does the great geometrician apply the same measure to all three?
1738STRANGER: Again, a large household may be compared to a small state:--will they differ at all, as far as government is concerned?
1738STRANGER: And a science of a peculiar kind, which was selected out of the rest as having a character which is at once judicial and authoritative?
1738STRANGER: And are''statesman,''''king,''''master,''or''householder,''one and the same; or is there a science or art answering to each of these names?
1738STRANGER: And do not these three expand in a manner into five, producing out of themselves two other names?
1738STRANGER: And do we acknowledge this science to be different from the others?
1738STRANGER: And do we not often praise the quiet strain of action also?
1738STRANGER: And do we not then say the opposite of what we said of the other?
1738STRANGER: And do you agree to his proposal?
1738STRANGER: And do you remember the terms in which they are praised?
1738STRANGER: And do you think, Socrates, that we really have done as you say?
1738STRANGER: And is not the herald under command, and does he not receive orders, and in his turn give them to others?
1738STRANGER: And is our enquiry about the Statesman intended only to improve our knowledge of politics, or our power of reasoning generally?
1738STRANGER: And is the art which is able and knows how to advise when we are to go to war, or to make peace, the same as this or different?
1738STRANGER: And is there any higher art or science, having power to decide which of these arts are and are not to be learned;--what do you say?
1738STRANGER: And may therefore be justly said to share in theoretical science?
1738STRANGER: And now we shall only be proceeding in due order if we go on to divide the sphere of knowledge?
1738STRANGER: And now, in which of these divisions shall we place the king?--Is he a judge and a kind of spectator?
1738STRANGER: And of which has the Statesman charge,--of the mixed or of the unmixed race?
1738STRANGER: And ought the other sciences to be superior to this, or no single science to any other?
1738STRANGER: And shall we say that the violence, if exercised by a rich man, is just, and if by a poor man, unjust?
1738STRANGER: And the householder and master are the same?
1738STRANGER: And the science which determines whether we ought to persuade or not, must be superior to the science which is able to persuade?
1738STRANGER: And this the argument defined to be the art of rearing, not horses or other brutes, but the art of rearing man collectively?
1738STRANGER: And we must also suppose that this rules the other, if we are not to give up our former notion?
1738STRANGER: And what are the rules which are enforced on their pupils by professional trainers or by others having similar authority?
1738STRANGER: And when men have anything to do in common, that they should be of one mind is surely a desirable thing?
1738STRANGER: And where shall we look for the political animal?
1738STRANGER: And would you not expect the slowest to arrive last?
1738STRANGER: And you would think temperance to be different from courage; and likewise to be a part of virtue?
1738STRANGER: And, after monarchy, next in order comes the government of the few?
1738STRANGER: And, considering how great and terrible the whole art of war is, can we imagine any which is superior to it but the truly royal?
1738STRANGER: Any one can divide the herds which feed on dry land?
1738STRANGER: Are not examples formed in this manner?
1738STRANGER: But if this is as you say, can our argument about the king be true and unimpeachable?
1738STRANGER: But surely the science of a true king is royal science?
1738STRANGER: But the first process is a separation of the clotted and matted fibres?
1738STRANGER: But what would you say of some other serviceable officials?
1738STRANGER: But what would you think of another sort of power or science?
1738STRANGER: But why did we not say at once that weaving is the art of entwining warp and woof, instead of making a long and useless circuit?
1738STRANGER: But yet the division will not be the same?
1738STRANGER: But, perhaps, in a city of a thousand men, there would be a hundred, or say fifty, who could?
1738STRANGER: Could any one, my friend, who began with false opinion ever expect to arrive even at a small portion of truth and to attain wisdom?
1738STRANGER: Did you ever hear that the men of former times were earth- born, and not begotten of one another?
1738STRANGER: Do you know a plausible saying of the common people which is in point?
1738STRANGER: Do you think that the multitude in a State can attain political science?
1738STRANGER: He contributes knowledge, not manual labour?
1738STRANGER: How does man walk, but as a diameter whose power is two feet?
1738STRANGER: I want to ask, whether any one of the other herdsmen has a rival who professes and claims to share with him in the management of the herd?
1738STRANGER: If I am not mistaken, we said that royal power was a science?
1738STRANGER: If any one who is in a private station has the skill to advise one of the public physicians, must not he also be called a physician?
1738STRANGER: Is not monarchy a recognized form of government?
1738STRANGER: Is not the third form of government the rule of the multitude, which is called by the name of democracy?
1738STRANGER: Let me put the matter in another way: I suppose that you would consider courage to be a part of virtue?
1738STRANGER: May not all rulers be supposed to command for the sake of producing something?
1738STRANGER: May we not very properly say, that of all knowledge, there are two divisions-- one which rules, and the other which judges?
1738STRANGER: Must we not admit, then, that where these two classes exist, they always feel the greatest antipathy and antagonism towards one another?
1738STRANGER: Shall we abide by what we said at first, or shall we retract our words?
1738STRANGER: Shall we break up this hornless herd into sections, and endeavour to assign to him what is his?
1738STRANGER: Shall we call this art of tending many animals together, the art of managing a herd, or the art of collective management?
1738STRANGER: Shall we distinguish them by their having or not having cloven feet, or by their mixing or not mixing the breed?
1738STRANGER: Shall we relieve him, and take his companion, the Young Socrates, instead of him?
1738STRANGER: Such as this: You may remember that we made an art of calculation?
1738STRANGER: The art of the general is only ministerial, and therefore not political?
1738STRANGER: The points on which I think that we ought to dwell are the following:-- YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738STRANGER: The science which has to do with military operations against our enemies-- is that to be regarded as a science or not?
1738STRANGER: Then here, Socrates, is still clearer evidence of the truth of what was said in the enquiry about the Sophist?
1738STRANGER: Then if the law is not the perfection of right, why are we compelled to make laws at all?
1738STRANGER: Then shall I determine for you as well as I can?
1738STRANGER: Then the next thing will be to separate them, in order that the argument may proceed in a regular manner?
1738STRANGER: Then the sciences must be divided as before?
1738STRANGER: Then while we are at unity among ourselves, we need not mind about the fancies of others?
1738STRANGER: Then, now that we have discovered the various classes in a State, shall I analyse politics after the pattern which weaving supplied?
1738STRANGER: Then, shall we say that the king has a greater affinity to knowledge than to manual arts and to practical life in general?
1738STRANGER: There is such a thing as learning music or handicraft arts in general?
1738STRANGER: There were many arts of shepherding, and one of them was the political, which had the charge of one particular herd?
1738STRANGER: Together?
1738STRANGER: Very good; and to what science do we assign the power of persuading a multitude by a pleasing tale and not by teaching?
1738STRANGER: Weaving is a sort of uniting?
1738STRANGER: Well, and are not arithmetic and certain other kindred arts, merely abstract knowledge, wholly separated from action?
1738STRANGER: What model is there which is small, and yet has any analogy with the political occupation?
1738STRANGER: Where shall we discover the path of the Statesman?
1738STRANGER: Which was, unmistakeably, one of the arts of knowledge?
1738STRANGER: Which, if I am not mistaken, will be politics?
1738STRANGER: Why, does not the retailer receive and sell over again the productions of others, which have been sold before?
1738STRANGER: Why, is not''care''of herds applicable to all?
1738STRANGER: Will not the best and easiest way of bringing them to a knowledge of what they do not as yet know be-- YOUNG SOCRATES: Be what?
1738STRANGER: Yes, and of the woof too; how, if not by twisting, is the woof made?
1738STRANGER: Yes, quite right; for how can he sit at every man''s side all through his life, prescribing for him the exact particulars of his duty?
1738STRANGER: You know that the master- builder does not work himself, but is the ruler of workmen?
1738Shall I explain the nature of what I call the second best?
1738Shall we do as I say?
1738THEODORUS: In what respect?
1738THEODORUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1738Tell me, then-- YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738Tell me, which is the happier of the two?
1738The excessive length of a discourse may be blamed; but who can say what is excess, unless he is furnished with a measure or standard?
1738The question is often asked, What are the limits of legislation in relation to morals?
1738Under which of the two shall we place the Statesman?
1738Viewed in the light of science and true art, would not all such enactments be utterly ridiculous?
1738Viewed in the light of science, would not the continuance of such regulations be ridiculous?
1738Were we right in selecting him out of ten thousand other claimants to be the shepherd and rearer of the human flock?
1738What do you advise?
1738Who, Socrates, would be equal to such a task?
1738Will you proceed?
1738Would you ever dream of calling it a violation of the art, or a breach of the laws of health?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: And are they not right?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: And what is that?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: And which are the kindred arts?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Are they not right in saying so?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: At what point?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: At what point?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Can not we have both ways?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Certainly not; but how shall we divide the two remaining species?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Do I understand you, in speaking of twisting, to be referring to manufacture of the warp?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Explain; what are they?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How and why is that?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How can generalship and military tactics be regarded as other than a science?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How can they be made?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How can we be safe?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How could we?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How do you mean?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How do you mean?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How do you mean?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How is that the cause?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How is that, and what bonds do you mean?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How is that?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How is this?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How must I speak of them, then?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How shall I define them?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How so?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How so?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How so?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How then?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How was that?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How would you divide them?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How would you divide them?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How would you make the division?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: How?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: In what direction?

1738YOUNG SOCRATES: In what way?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: On what principle of division?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: On what principle?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Quite right; but how shall we take the next step in the division?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Then how, Stranger, were the animals created in those days; and in what way were they begotten of one another?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: To what do you refer?

1738YOUNG SOCRATES: To what do you refer?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: To what do you refer?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: To what do you refer?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: True; and what is the next step?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Upon what principle?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Very true; but what is the imperfection which still remains?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: We had better not take the whole?

1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What are they?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What are they?

1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What was it?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What was it?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What was the error of which, as you say, we were guilty in our recent division?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What was this great error of which you speak?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: What?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Where would you make the division?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Which of the two halves do you mean?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Who are they, and what services do they perform?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Who are they?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Who are they?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Who is he?

1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Why not?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Why so?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Why strange?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Why?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Why?
1738YOUNG SOCRATES: Yes; what else should it be?
1738Yet perhaps the question what will or will not be is a foolish one, for who can tell?''
1738You have heard what happened in the quarrel of Atreus and Thyestes?
1738You have heard, no doubt, and remember what they say happened at that time?

7972If only the shield is taken, if there is nothing else in the way of bronze body armour to take, why have we the plural,[ Greek: teuchea]?
7972If so, how were the_ Iliad_ and_ Odyssey_, unlike the Cyclic poems, kept uncontaminated, as they confessedly were, by the new romantic ideas?
7972If so, the poets must have archaeologised, must have kept asking themselves,"Is this or that detail true to the past?"

7972Or why, if they knew them, did they not introduce them in the poems, which, we are told, they were filling with non- Mycenaean greaves and corslets?

7972The question being, Is the_ Iliad_ a literary whole or a mere literary mosaic?
7972The question is, would a late editor or poet know all the details of customary law in such a case as a quarrel between Over- Lord and peer?
7972The usage occurs in the poem where the incidents of seafaring occur frequently, as is to be expected?

7972We shall have to ask, how did small round bucklers come to be unknown to late poets who saw them constantly?
7972What can be more natural and characteristic?

7972What phrase do they use in the_ Iliad_ for speaking or asking_ about_ anybody?
7972What preposition follows such verbs in the_ Iliad_?
7972What safer place could be found for them than in upper chambers, as in the Iliad?
7972What were the fortunes of that oldest of all old kernels?

7972Where, if not in upper chambers, did the young princesses repose?
7972Who are the[ Greek: gerontes]?
7972Who was killed in another place?
7972Why did not these late poets, it is asked, make him take off his corslet, if he had one, as well as his shield?
7972Why did the late poets act so inconsistently?
7972Why did they leave corslets out, while their predecessors and contemporaries were introducing them all up and down the_ Iliad_?
7972Why do they desert the traditional bronze?
7972Why do they not cleave to the traditional term-- bronze-- in the case of tools, as the same men do in the case of weapons?
7972Why do they use bronze for swords and spears, iron for tools?
7972Why had Thrasymedes the shield of his father?
7972Why is there so much excitement at the assembly of Book II.?
7972Why were they ignorant of small circular shields, which they saw every day?
7972Why, if they were bent on modernising, did they not modernise the shields?
7972Why, then, do the supposed late continuators represent tools, not weapons, as of iron?
7972Why, then, had Homer''s men in his time not made this step, seeing that they were familiar with the use of iron?
7972Why?
7972Would he find any demand on the part of his audience for a long series of statements, which to a modern seem to interrupt the story?
7972Would the new poets, in deference to tradition, abstain from mentioning cavalry, or small bucklers, or iron swords and spears?
7972Would the tyrant Pisistratus have made his literary man take this view?
7972Would they therefore sing of things familiar-- of iron weapons, small round shields, hoplites, and cavalry?
7972Would wandering Ionian reciters at fairs have maintained this uniformity?
7972_ Now_, was his[ Greek: talamos] or bedroom, also his dining- room?
7972and had the leather interior lasted with the felt cap through seven centuries?
7972and how, if they modernised unconsciously, as all uncritical poets do, did the shield fail to be unconsciously"brought up to date"?

7972is she not perhaps still a married woman with a living husband?
7972or would they avoid puzzling their hearers by speaking of obsolete and unfamiliar forms of tactics and of military equipment?
7972we must ask"What, taking it provisionally as a literary whole, are the qualities of the poet as a painter of what we may call feudal society?"
7972what place therefore needed purification except the hall and courtyard?
7972would a feudal audience have been satisfied with a poem which did not wind the quarrel up in accordance with usage?

1643''what is temperance?''
1643( To the Boy:) Tell me, boy, do you assert that a double space comes from a double line?
1643ANYTUS: Whom do you mean, Socrates?
1643ANYTUS: Why do you not tell him yourself?
1643ANYTUS: Why single out individuals?
1643Am I not right?
1643And am I to carry back this report of you to Thessaly?
1643And if these were our reasons, should we not be right in sending him?
1643And if this is the proper name, then you, Meno''s slave, are prepared to affirm that the double space is the square of the diagonal?
1643And if you find what you want, how will you ever know that this is the thing which you did not know?
1643And is any mode of acquisition, even if unjust and dishonest, equally to be deemed virtue?
1643And now tell me, is not this a line of two feet and that of four?
1643And yet, if there are no universal ideas, what becomes of philosophy?
1643And, therefore, my dear Meno, I fear that I must begin again and repeat the same question: What is virtue?
1643Are they not profitable when they are rightly used, and hurtful when they are not rightly used?
1643But I can not believe, Socrates, that there are no good men: And if there are, how did they come into existence?
1643But are you in earnest, Socrates, in saying that you do not know what virtue is?
1643But how, asks Meno, can he enquire either into what he knows or into what he does not know?
1643But is virtue taught or not?
1643But what has been the result?
1643But whence had the uneducated man this knowledge?
1643But where are the teachers?
1643Can he be wrong who has right opinion, so long as he has right opinion?
1643Can the child govern his father, or the slave his master; and would he who governed be any longer a slave?
1643Can those who were deemed by many to be the wisest men of Hellas have been out of their minds?
1643Can you say that they are teachers in any true sense whose ideas are in such confusion?
1643Can you teach me how this is?
1643Consider the matter thus: If we wanted Meno to be a good physician, to whom should we send him?
1643Could you not answer that question, Meno?
1643Do not all men, my dear sir, desire good?
1643Do they seem to you to be teachers of virtue?
1643Do you observe that here he seems to imply that virtue can be taught?
1643Do you remember them?
1643Do you think that I could?
1643Have there not been many good men in this city?
1643Have you not heard from our elders of him?
1643Health and strength, and beauty and wealth-- these, and the like of these, we call profitable?
1643Here are two and there is one; and on the other side, here are two also and there is one: and that makes the figure of which you speak?
1643How could that be?
1643How would you answer me?
1643How, if I knew nothing at all of Meno, could I tell if he was fair, or the opposite of fair; rich and noble, or the reverse of rich and noble?
1643If a man knew the way to Larisa, or anywhere else, and went to the place and led others thither, would he not be a right and good guide?
1643Is he a bit better than any other mortal?
1643Is there any difference?
1643Is virtue the same in a child and in a slave, Meno?
1643It was the natural answer to two questions,''Whence came the soul?
1643Let me explain: if in one direction the space was of two feet, and in the other direction of one foot, the whole would be of two feet taken once?
1643Let the first hypothesis be that virtue is or is not knowledge,--in that case will it be taught or not?
1643Let us take another,--Aristides, the son of Lysimachus: would you not acknowledge that he was a good man?
1643Look at the matter in your own way: Would you not admit that Themistocles was a good man?
1643MENO: And did you not think that he knew?
1643MENO: And how will you enquire, Socrates, into that which you do not know?
1643MENO: And now, Socrates, what is colour?
1643MENO: But if a person were to say that he does not know what colour is, any more than what figure is-- what sort of answer would you have given him?
1643MENO: How can it be otherwise?
1643MENO: How do you mean, Socrates?
1643MENO: Then you have never met Gorgias when he was at Athens?
1643MENO: True; but do you think that there are no teachers of virtue?
1643MENO: Well, Socrates, and is not the argument sound?
1643MENO: Well, what of that?
1643MENO: Well; and why are you so slow of heart to believe that knowledge is virtue?
1643MENO: What do you mean by the word''right''?
1643MENO: What do you mean, Socrates?
1643MENO: What do you mean?
1643MENO: What have they to do with the question?
1643MENO: What of that?
1643MENO: What was it?
1643MENO: Where does he say so?
1643MENO: Why do you say that, Socrates?
1643MENO: Why do you think so?
1643MENO: Why not?
1643MENO: Why, how can there be virtue without these?
1643MENO: Why?
1643MENO: Will you have one definition of them all?
1643MENO: Yes, Socrates; but what do you mean by saying that we do not learn, and that what we call learning is only a process of recollection?
1643Meanwhile I will return to you, Meno; for I suppose that there are gentlemen in your region too?
1643Now, has any one ever taught him all this?
1643Now, to whom should he go in order that he may learn this virtue?
1643Now, when you say that they deceived and corrupted the youth, are they to be supposed to have corrupted them consciously or unconsciously?
1643Once more, I suspect, friend Anytus, that virtue is not a thing which can be taught?
1643Or is the nature of health always the same, whether in man or woman?
1643Ought I not to ask the question over again; for can any one who does not know virtue know a part of virtue?
1643Please, Anytus, to help me and your friend Meno in answering our question, Who are the teachers?
1643SOCRATES: A square may be of any size?
1643SOCRATES: And a person who had a right opinion about the way, but had never been and did not know, might be a good guide also, might he not?
1643SOCRATES: And a third, which is equal to either of them?
1643SOCRATES: And am I not also right in saying that true opinion leading the way perfects action quite as well as knowledge?
1643SOCRATES: And are there not here four equal lines which contain this space?
1643SOCRATES: And are there not these four divisions in the figure, each of which is equal to the figure of four feet?
1643SOCRATES: And are they willing to teach the young?
1643SOCRATES: And can either a young man or an elder one be good, if they are intemperate and unjust?
1643SOCRATES: And can either house or state or anything be well ordered without temperance and without justice?
1643SOCRATES: And conversely, may not the art of which neither teachers nor disciples exist be assumed to be incapable of being taught?
1643SOCRATES: And desire is of possession?
1643SOCRATES: And did not he train his son Lysimachus better than any other Athenian in all that could be done for him by the help of masters?
1643SOCRATES: And do you really imagine, Meno, that a man knows evils to be evils and desires them notwithstanding?
1643SOCRATES: And does any one desire to be miserable and ill- fated?
1643SOCRATES: And does he really know?
1643SOCRATES: And does he think that the evils will do good to him who possesses them, or does he know that they will do him harm?
1643SOCRATES: And does he who desires the honourable also desire the good?
1643SOCRATES: And does not this line, reaching from corner to corner, bisect each of these spaces?
1643SOCRATES: And does this definition of virtue include all virtue?
1643SOCRATES: And for this reason-- that there are other figures?
1643SOCRATES: And four is how many times two?
1643SOCRATES: And four such lines will make a space containing eight feet?
1643SOCRATES: And four times is not double?
1643SOCRATES: And from what line do you get this figure?
1643SOCRATES: And how many are twice two feet?
1643SOCRATES: And how many in this?
1643SOCRATES: And how many spaces are there in this section?
1643SOCRATES: And how many times larger is this space than this other?
1643SOCRATES: And how much are three times three feet?
1643SOCRATES: And how much is the double of four?
1643SOCRATES: And if he proceeded to ask, What other figures are there?
1643SOCRATES: And if it was taught it was wisdom?
1643SOCRATES: And if one man is not better than another in desiring good, he must be better in the power of attaining it?
1643SOCRATES: And if one side of the figure be of two feet, and the other side be of two feet, how much will the whole be?
1643SOCRATES: And if there are no teachers, neither are there disciples?
1643SOCRATES: And if there are no teachers, neither are there scholars?
1643SOCRATES: And if there were teachers, it might be taught; and if there were no teachers, not?
1643SOCRATES: And if we are good, then we are profitable; for all good things are profitable?
1643SOCRATES: And in speaking thus, you do not mean to say that the round is round any more than straight, or the straight any more straight than round?
1643SOCRATES: And in supposing that they will be useful only if they are true guides to us of action-- there we were also right?
1643SOCRATES: And is not that four times four?
1643SOCRATES: And is not this true of size and strength?
1643SOCRATES: And is not this universally true of human nature?
1643SOCRATES: And may we not, Meno, truly call those men''divine''who, having no understanding, yet succeed in many a grand deed and word?
1643SOCRATES: And might not the same be said of flute- playing, and of the other arts?
1643SOCRATES: And might there not be another square twice as large as this, and having like this the lines equal?
1643SOCRATES: And must not he then have been a good teacher, if any man ever was a good teacher, of his own virtue?
1643SOCRATES: And must they not suppose that those who are hurt are miserable in proportion to the hurt which is inflicted upon them?
1643SOCRATES: And nature being excluded, then came the question whether virtue is acquired by teaching?
1643SOCRATES: And now I add another square equal to the former one?
1643SOCRATES: And now try and tell me the length of the line which forms the side of that double square: this is two feet-- what will that be?
1643SOCRATES: And of how many feet will that be?
1643SOCRATES: And passages into which and through which the effluences pass?
1643SOCRATES: And shall I explain this wonder to you?
1643SOCRATES: And so forth?
1643SOCRATES: And some of the effluences fit into the passages, and some of them are too small or too large?
1643SOCRATES: And surely the good man has been acknowledged by us to be useful?
1643SOCRATES: And the right guide is useful and good?
1643SOCRATES: And the space of four feet is made from this half line?
1643SOCRATES: And the women too, Meno, call good men divine-- do they not?
1643SOCRATES: And then you will tell me about virtue?
1643SOCRATES: And there are no teachers of virtue to be found anywhere?
1643SOCRATES: And there is such a thing as sight?
1643SOCRATES: And these lines which I have drawn through the middle of the square are also equal?
1643SOCRATES: And they surely would not have been good in the same way, unless their virtue had been the same?
1643SOCRATES: And this knowledge which he now has must he not either have acquired or always possessed?
1643SOCRATES: And this space is of how many feet?
1643SOCRATES: And this spontaneous recovery of knowledge in him is recollection?
1643SOCRATES: And thus we arrive at the conclusion that virtue is either wholly or partly wisdom?
1643SOCRATES: And virtue makes us good?
1643SOCRATES: And we have admitted that a thing can not be taught of which there are neither teachers nor disciples?
1643SOCRATES: And were we not saying just now that justice, temperance, and the like, were each of them a part of virtue?
1643SOCRATES: And what do you think of these Sophists, who are the only professors?
1643SOCRATES: And what is the guiding principle which makes them profitable or the reverse?
1643SOCRATES: And will not virtue, as virtue, be the same, whether in a child or in a grown- up person, in a woman or in a man?
1643SOCRATES: And yet he has the knowledge?
1643SOCRATES: And yet these things may also sometimes do us harm: would you not think so?
1643SOCRATES: And yet we admitted that it was a good?
1643SOCRATES: And yet, as we were just now saying, he did not know?
1643SOCRATES: And yet, were you not saying just now that virtue is the desire and power of attaining good?
1643SOCRATES: And you know that a square figure has these four lines equal?
1643SOCRATES: And, in your opinion, do those who think that they will do them good know that they are evils?
1643SOCRATES: But are not the miserable ill- fated?
1643SOCRATES: But did any one, old or young, ever say in your hearing that Cleophantus, son of Themistocles, was a wise or good man, as his father was?
1643SOCRATES: But does not this line become doubled if we add another such line here?
1643SOCRATES: But how much?
1643SOCRATES: But if he did not acquire the knowledge in this life, then he must have had and learned it at some other time?
1643SOCRATES: But if neither the Sophists nor the gentlemen are teachers, clearly there can be no other teachers?
1643SOCRATES: But if the good are not by nature good, are they made good by instruction?
1643SOCRATES: But if there are three feet this way and three feet that way, the whole space will be three times three feet?
1643SOCRATES: But if this be affirmed, then the desire of good is common to all, and one man is no better than another in that respect?
1643SOCRATES: But if this is true, then the good are not by nature good?
1643SOCRATES: But since this side is also of two feet, there are twice two feet?
1643SOCRATES: But still he had in him those notions of his-- had he not?
1643SOCRATES: But surely we acknowledged that there were no teachers of virtue?
1643SOCRATES: But why?
1643SOCRATES: But would he not have wanted?
1643SOCRATES: Can we call those teachers who do not acknowledge the possibility of their own vocation?
1643SOCRATES: Do not he and you and Empedocles say that there are certain effluences of existence?
1643SOCRATES: Do you mean that they think the evils which they desire, to be good; or do they know that they are evil and yet desire them?
1643SOCRATES: Do you remember how, in the example of figure, we rejected any answer given in terms which were as yet unexplained or unadmitted?
1643SOCRATES: Do you see, Meno, what advances he has made in his power of recollection?
1643SOCRATES: Four times four are sixteen-- are they not?
1643SOCRATES: Good; and is not a space of eight feet twice the size of this, and half the size of the other?
1643SOCRATES: Has any of the Sophists wronged you, Anytus?
1643SOCRATES: Has not each interior line cut off half of the four spaces?
1643SOCRATES: He is Greek, and speaks Greek, does he not?
1643SOCRATES: Here, then, there are four equal spaces?
1643SOCRATES: I will tell you why: I have heard from certain wise men and women who spoke of things divine that-- MENO: What did they say?
1643SOCRATES: If virtue was wisdom( or knowledge), then, as we thought, it was taught?
1643SOCRATES: If we have made him doubt, and given him the''torpedo''s shock,''have we done him any harm?
1643SOCRATES: Is he not better off in knowing his ignorance?
1643SOCRATES: Let us describe such a figure: Would you not say that this is the figure of eight feet?
1643SOCRATES: Or if we wanted him to be a good cobbler, should we not send him to the cobblers?
1643SOCRATES: Shall I indulge you?
1643SOCRATES: Such a space, then, will be made out of a line greater than this one, and less than that one?
1643SOCRATES: Suppose that we fill up the vacant corner?
1643SOCRATES: Tell me, boy, do you know that a figure like this is a square?
1643SOCRATES: That is, from the line which extends from corner to corner of the figure of four feet?
1643SOCRATES: The next question is, whether virtue is knowledge or of another species?
1643SOCRATES: Then all men are good in the same way, and by participation in the same virtues?
1643SOCRATES: Then are there some who desire the evil and others who desire the good?
1643SOCRATES: Then begin again, and answer me, What, according to you and your friend Gorgias, is the definition of virtue?
1643SOCRATES: Then both men and women, if they are to be good men and women, must have the same virtues of temperance and justice?
1643SOCRATES: Then do you not think that the Sophists are teachers?
1643SOCRATES: Then he was the better for the torpedo''s touch?
1643SOCRATES: Then he who does not know may still have true notions of that which he does not know?
1643SOCRATES: Then if they are not given by nature, neither are the good by nature good?
1643SOCRATES: Then if virtue is knowledge, virtue will be taught?
1643SOCRATES: Then no one could say that his son showed any want of capacity?
1643SOCRATES: Then now we have made a quick end of this question: if virtue is of such a nature, it will be taught; and if not, not?
1643SOCRATES: Then right opinion is not less useful than knowledge?
1643SOCRATES: Then the figure of eight is not made out of a line of three?
1643SOCRATES: Then the line which forms the side of eight feet ought to be more than this line of two feet, and less than the other of four feet?
1643SOCRATES: Then the square is of twice two feet?
1643SOCRATES: Then they who order a state or a house temperately or justly order them with temperance and justice?
1643SOCRATES: Then virtue can not be taught?
1643SOCRATES: Then virtue is profitable?
1643SOCRATES: Then we acknowledged that it was not taught, and was not wisdom?
1643SOCRATES: Then you are entirely unacquainted with them?
1643SOCRATES: Then, according to your definition, virtue would appear to be the power of attaining good?
1643SOCRATES: Then, my dear friend, how can you know whether a thing is good or bad of which you are wholly ignorant?
1643SOCRATES: There are some who desire evil?
1643SOCRATES: They must be temperate and just?
1643SOCRATES: To what then do we give the name of figure?
1643SOCRATES: What are they?
1643SOCRATES: What do you mean?
1643SOCRATES: What do you say of him, Meno?
1643SOCRATES: What line would give you a space of eight feet, as this gives one of sixteen feet;--do you see?
1643SOCRATES: What, Anytus?
1643SOCRATES: Which must have been the time when he was not a man?
1643SOCRATES: Why simple?
1643SOCRATES: Without any one teaching him he will recover his knowledge for himself, if he is only asked questions?
1643SOCRATES: Would you like me to answer you after the manner of Gorgias, which is familiar to you?
1643SOCRATES: Would you say''virtue,''Meno, or''a virtue''?
1643SOCRATES: Yes, indeed; but what if the supposition is erroneous?
1643SOCRATES: You only assert that the round figure is not more a figure than the straight, or the straight than the round?
1643SOCRATES: You surely know, do you not, Anytus, that these are the people whom mankind call Sophists?
1643SOCRATES: You would not wonder if you had ever observed the images of Daedalus( Compare Euthyphro); but perhaps you have not got them in your country?
1643Should we not send him to the physicians?
1643Suppose now that some one asked you the question which I asked before: Meno, he would say, what is figure?
1643Suppose that I carry on the figure of the swarm, and ask of you, What is the nature of the bee?
1643Tell me, boy, is not this a square of four feet which I have drawn?
1643There is another sort of progress from the general notions of Socrates, who asked simply,''what is friendship?''
1643This Dialogue is an attempt to answer the question, Can virtue be taught?
1643Were not all these answers given out of his own head?
1643Were we not right in admitting this?
1643Were you not saying that the virtue of a man was to order a state, and the virtue of a woman was to order a house?
1643What is the origin of evil?''
1643What makes you so angry with them?
1643What will you put forth as the subject of enquiry?
1643When a man has no sense he is harmed by courage, but when he has sense he is profited?
1643Whom would you name?
1643Why, did not I ask you to tell me the nature of virtue as a whole?
1643Will Meno tell him his own notion, which is probably not very different from that of Gorgias?
1643Will you be satisfied with it, as I am sure that I should be, if you would let me have a similar definition of virtue?
1643Will you reply that he was a mean man, and had not many friends among the Athenians and allies?
1643Yet once more, fair friend; according to you, virtue is''the power of governing;''but do you not add''justly and not unjustly''?
1643and do they agree that virtue is taught?
1643and do they profess to be teachers?
1643and who were they?
1643or is there anything about which even the acknowledged''gentlemen''are sometimes saying that''this thing can be taught,''and sometimes the opposite?
1643or rather, does not every one see that knowledge alone is taught?
1643or, as we were just now saying,''remembered''?
1643would do well to have his eye fixed: Do you understand?
806Above or below us?
806An outcast, mistreated, to whom should I talk?
806Are you not ashamed to look down on me, who have kneeled to you, the suppliant, you bitter ones?
806Are you not going to give me the bow?
806Are you resolved to stay here as before, or will you come with us?
806Blasphemous man, could it be I do n''t stink now; am I no longer a cripple?
806CHORUS Come back to do what?
806CHORUS What do you mean?
806CHORUS What is it?
806CHORUS What will we do now?
806CHORUS What will you do with it?
806CHORUS Where is he now, the unlucky man?
806CHORUS Where?
806CHORUS Why do you beseech us now?
806CHORUS Why?
806Can I believe what you tell me?
806Death, black death, how can I call on you again, and you not come to take me away?
806Do they miss him now?
806Do you have no pity?
806Do you see him?
806Do you want me to hold you?
806Does he still live?
806Does some fear now act upon his spirit?
806Does this push you not to take me?
806From what country should I think you, and guess it correctly?
806Have they made you suffer?
806Have you changed your mind?
806Have you lost your senses?
806He swore he would persuade me to sail off with him, the bastard?
806How can I keep myself alive?
806How can I make sense of what goes on, when, praising the gods, I discover that they''re evil?
806How can I mistrust the one who gives me this kindly advice?
806How can a one- legged man, alone, win against us?
806How can he withstand such ceaseless misfortune?
806How can you pour your libations to the gods?
806How could I know you?
806I leapt up then, crying in grief and anger, and said,"You bastards, how dare you give the things that are mine to other men without asking me first?"
806If I do, how shall I go into the light?
806If I sail with you, how can you offer burnt sacrifices?
806Is he alive?
806Is he inside or outside?
806Is that Odysseus''s voice I hear?
806Is that why you are angry?
806Is there nothing more inside the cave?
806Is this what you wanted?
806May I cradle it in my hands?
806Must I give in?
806Must I let him force me to go with them?
806My eyes, can you bear to see me living alongside those who tried to kill me, the Atreids and that bastard Odysseus?
806My foot, what will I do with you for what remains of my life?
806NEOPTOLEMOS And Odysseus would not bring the message himself?
806NEOPTOLEMOS And what if they come in war against my country?
806NEOPTOLEMOS And why not by persuasion after telling him the truth?
806NEOPTOLEMOS And you do not find such lying disgusting?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Are Phoenix and his friends so eager to jump when the Atreids tell them to?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Are you resolved?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Did you take part in that misery?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Do they plan to take me with violence or persuade me to return with them?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Does your illness now bring you pain?
806NEOPTOLEMOS How could one say such things and keep a straight face?
806NEOPTOLEMOS How will I avoid the scorn of the Greeks?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Is he so sure of his strength?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Is it not possible, then, to apologize?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Is that your famous bow?
806NEOPTOLEMOS May I hold it?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Must we go over the same ground twice?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Things that we do not have on board?
806NEOPTOLEMOS To what?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What are they?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What are your orders, apart from telling lies?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What can they hope to win, those men, to turn their thoughts after so many years to Philoktetes, whom they made an outcast?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What do you mean?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What do you mean?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What good would it do me for him to come to Troy?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What is it?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What is it?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What is it?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What is it?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What is this terrible thing that attacks you, and makes you scream in such misery?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What kind of help could you give me?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What must I do?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What should I do?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What will I do?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What will we do now?
806NEOPTOLEMOS What will we do, then, since I can not convince you?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Where?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Who is the man they now pursue?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Who?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Why do you cry out to the gods in anguish?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Why should I feel shame to do acts of good?
806NEOPTOLEMOS Zeus, what will I do?
806No?
806ODYSSEUS And none of the things that distinguish a house?
806ODYSSEUS And what else?
806ODYSSEUS And what will you do with it?
806ODYSSEUS And you have no fear of what the Greeks will do?
806ODYSSEUS Do you really mean it?
806ODYSSEUS Do you remember all the counsel I have given?
806ODYSSEUS Do you see my hand drawing out this sword?
806ODYSSEUS How can it be just to give away what you have won with my counsel?
806ODYSSEUS What are you saying, son of Achilles?
806ODYSSEUS What did we order you to do that was wrong?
806ODYSSEUS What did you have in mind?
806ODYSSEUS What more do you want now?
806ODYSSEUS Where?
806ODYSSEUS Why are you returning so quickly, boy?
806ODYSSEUS You coward, what are you thinking of doing?
806ODYSSEUS You mean you''ll return it?
806Odysseus''s?
806Or have the gods brought vengeance upon them, since they punish crime?
806PHILOKTETES Acts of good for me, or the Atreids?
806PHILOKTETES And my old friend, that honest man, Nestor of Pylos?
806PHILOKTETES Are you leaving already?
806PHILOKTETES Are you not ashamed to talk so, in full sight of the gods?
806PHILOKTETES Boy, whose voice is that?
806PHILOKTETES Come to the bitter plains of Troy, to the accursed Atreids with my foot like this?
806PHILOKTETES Do n''t you know?
806PHILOKTETES Do you too have a claim against the all- destroying house of Atreus?
806PHILOKTETES Does this come from nausea at the sight of my illness?
806PHILOKTETES Hateful life, why should I still live and see?
806PHILOKTETES How can you not know?
806PHILOKTETES How will you betray me to my enemies?
806PHILOKTETES Is it not true that the Atreids marooned me here?
806PHILOKTETES Is this the truth?
806PHILOKTETES Is this yet another of your tricks?
806PHILOKTETES O land of Lemnos and the all- powerful fire, created by Hephaistos in the great volcano, must I submit to this?
806PHILOKTETES Oh, what will I do?
806PHILOKTETES Powerless?
806PHILOKTETES Son of a man whom I once loved, son of my beloved country, nursed by ancient Lykomedes--- what business brought you here?
806PHILOKTETES Tell me, by the gods, how was it with Patroklos, your father''s most beloved friend?
806PHILOKTETES Then you do not know who stands before you?
806PHILOKTETES Up there... NEOPTOLEMOS What madness is now upon you?
806PHILOKTETES What do you want?
806PHILOKTETES What is he saying to you, boy?
806PHILOKTETES What must I learn?
806PHILOKTETES What?
806PHILOKTETES Who is that?
806PHILOKTETES Why do you keep me from killing my enemy?
806PHILOKTETES You do not know my name?
806PHILOKTETES You have nothing to say to me, son of Achilles?
806PHILOKTETES You sailors, will you leave me?
806PHILOKTETES You there, you strangers: who are you who have landed from the sea on an island without houses or fair harbor?
806PHILOKTETES You''ll stay?
806Rock walls, filled with my cries of anguish, what will my daily ration be now?
806Shall we sail away, or do what he asks us?
806Should I help you up?
806The fame my woes have given me?
806The men who brought me to my ruin?
806What are you planning to do with me?
806What are you saying?
806What are you saying?
806What brought you?
806What can I hope for, now that Ajax and Antilochos are dead and in the ground, while Odysseus walks, while he should be the one who is dead?
806What else do you want?
806What evil is that?
806What hope have I of dealing with my fate, now that the birds that fled from me above will come down through the winds to destroy me?
806What is it, boy?
806What is left for me to do?
806What lucky wind?
806What must I do?
806What shall I hide?
806What shall I say to Philoktetes?
806What urged you here?
806What will I do?
806What wrath have they incited in you?
806Where are you, boy?
806Where does he live?
806Where does he sleep?
806Where does he walk?
806Where is it that you sail from?
806Where is it?
806Who are you, boy?
806Who can live on breezes and not earthly food?
806Who sent you?
806Why are we waiting?
806Why do n''t you speak?
806Why do you call me?
806Why do you look at the summit above us?
806Why do you stand there, seized by silence?
806Why does he bargain in the shadows, hiding his words from me?
806Why have I not descended into darkness?
806Why have you also wounded me?
806Why must you take me?
806Why would we need you?
806Why, stranger, have you done these things?
806Will I twice be proven evil, hiding what I should not, saying the worst?
806Will they take me off against my will?
806Will you do it, boy?
806Will you leave without a word?
806Will you stand before the Greeks cloaked in the glory of my weapons?
806Will you still help them, and make me do the same?
806You sail away from Troy?

3013Do you want to fight it?
3013Do you want us to fling ourselves headlong down these rocks?
3013Does he not say she must be given to the swallows?
3013Does the son of Pisias want to betray the gates of the city to the foe?
3013EPOPS And are you looking for a greater city than Athens?
3013EPOPS And his?
3013EPOPS And how are we to give them health, which belongs to the gods?
3013EPOPS And how shall we give wealth to mankind?
3013EPOPS And they are?
3013EPOPS Are you calling me?
3013EPOPS Are you chaffing me about my feathers?
3013EPOPS Are you dicasts?
3013EPOPS At what, then?
3013EPOPS But how will mankind recognize us as gods and not as jays?
3013EPOPS But, after all, what sort of city would please you best?
3013EPOPS Come now, what must be done?
3013EPOPS From what country?
3013EPOPS From whom will they take them?
3013EPOPS How so?
3013EPOPS How their pole?
3013EPOPS Is that kind of seed sown among you?
3013EPOPS No more shall perish?
3013EPOPS Oh, most cruel of all animals, why tear these two men to pieces, why kill them?
3013EPOPS Take your advice?
3013EPOPS The Greeks?
3013EPOPS This one?
3013EPOPS We birds?
3013EPOPS What brings you here?
3013EPOPS What for?
3013EPOPS What''s the matter?
3013EPOPS Who wants me?
3013EPOPS Why not choose Lepreum in Elis for your settlement?
3013EUELPIDES And did you not lose your crow, when you fell sprawling on the ground?
3013EUELPIDES And how about my eyes?
3013EUELPIDES And what does the crow say about the road to follow?
3013EUELPIDES And which way does it tell us to go now?
3013EUELPIDES And who is it brings an owl to Athens?
3013EUELPIDES But do you see all those hooked claws?
3013EUELPIDES Do you know how dearly I should like to splint her legs for her?
3013EUELPIDES Does a bird need a servant, then?
3013EUELPIDES How so?
3013EUELPIDES I''faith, yes,''tis a bird, but of what kind?
3013EUELPIDES I?
3013EUELPIDES Is it a question of feasting?
3013EUELPIDES Is it in Nephelococcygia that all the wealth of Theovenes(1) and most of Aeschines''(2) is?
3013EUELPIDES That they may tear me to pieces?
3013EUELPIDES Then where are your feathers?
3013EUELPIDES Then you did not let it go?
3013EUELPIDES Through illness?
3013EUELPIDES We?
3013EUELPIDES What makes you laugh?
3013EUELPIDES What''s the matter?
3013EUELPIDES What?
3013EUELPIDES Where is it, then?
3013EUELPIDES Why with the stew- pots?
3013EUELPIDES Why, have you been conquered by a cock?
3013EUELPIDES Will you keep silence?
3013EUELPIDES You were Tereus, and what are you now?
3013EUELPIDES( TO HIS JAY)(1) Do you think I should walk straight for yon tree?
3013From what country?
3013HERACLES And I get nothing whatever of the paternal property?
3013HERACLES And you are seasoning them before answering us?
3013HERACLES But what if my father wished to give me his property on his death- bed, even though I be a bastard?
3013HERACLES Hi Triballian, do you want a thrashing?
3013HERACLES What are these meats?
3013HERACLES What else?
3013HERACLES You say that you give her?
3013Have these birds come to contend for the double stadium prize?
3013Have you a permit, bearing the seal of the storks?
3013Have you no Greek town you can propose to us?
3013Have you ulcers to hide like Laespodias?
3013He has indeed sold us this jay, a true son of Tharelides,(2) for an obolus, and this crow for three, but what can they do?
3013How is that?
3013How long since?
3013How will they get at it?
3013I say, Epops, you are not the only one of your kind then?
3013INFORMER All?
3013INFORMER And how can you give a man wings with your words?
3013INFORMER I?
3013INFORMER So that words give wings?
3013INFORMER Well, and why not?
3013INFORMER Where is he who gives out wings to all comers?
3013INSPECTOR Do you recall that evening when you stooled against the column where the decrees are posted?
3013INSPECTOR What does this mean?
3013IRIS Am I awake?
3013IRIS And what other roads can the gods travel?
3013IRIS Are there others then?
3013IRIS Are you mad?
3013IRIS By which gate?
3013IRIS I?
3013IRIS Of which?
3013IRIS What do you mean?
3013In what way?
3013Is he dispersing the clouds or gathering them?
3013Is it no later than that?
3013Is it not the most priceless gift of all, to be winged?
3013Is it possible that the gods have chosen such an envoy?
3013Is n''t it a peacock?
3013Is the swallow in sight?
3013MESSENGER Where, where is he?
3013METON Is there sedition in your city?
3013METON What d''you want with me?

3013METON Who am I?
3013METON Why, what have I to fear?
3013Must I knock again?
3013Must they die in early youth?
3013Over whom?
3013PISTHETAERUS And how do you think to escape them?
3013PISTHETAERUS And what is the name of these gods?
3013PISTHETAERUS And when did you compose them?
3013PISTHETAERUS And who carried the mortar?
3013PISTHETAERUS Are the sandals there?
3013PISTHETAERUS Are you not going to clear out with your urns?
3013PISTHETAERUS But how can they be gathered together?
3013PISTHETAERUS But how could they put the mortar into hods?
3013PISTHETAERUS By Posidon, do you see that many- coloured bird?
3013PISTHETAERUS By which gate did you pass through the wall, wretched woman?
3013PISTHETAERUS Can you see any bird?
3013PISTHETAERUS D''you see?
3013PISTHETAERUS Did you get one?
3013PISTHETAERUS Do you know what to do?
3013PISTHETAERUS Do you like Nephelococcygia?
3013PISTHETAERUS Do you want to fly straight to Pellene?
3013PISTHETAERUS Far better, are they not?
3013PISTHETAERUS From whom?
3013PISTHETAERUS Gather songs in the clouds?
3013PISTHETAERUS How will you be able to cry when once your eyes are pecked out?

3013PISTHETAERUS In what way?
3013PISTHETAERUS Is all that there?
3013PISTHETAERUS Is there another glutton besides Cleonymus?
3013PISTHETAERUS No head- bird gave you a safe- conduct?
3013PISTHETAERUS Now will you be off with your decrees?
3013PISTHETAERUS Of the entrails-- is it so written?
3013PISTHETAERUS Of which gods are you speaking?
3013PISTHETAERUS Paralus or Salaminia?
3013PISTHETAERUS So it seems, despite all your youthful vigour, you make it your trade to denounce strangers?
3013PISTHETAERUS The time?
3013PISTHETAERUS Well then, what name can you suggest?
3013PISTHETAERUS What ails you, that you should shake your fist at heaven?

3013PISTHETAERUS Why did you not reveal it to me before I founded my city?
3013PISTHETAERUS Why not choose Athene Polias?
3013PISTHETAERUS Why were not guards sent against him at once?
3013PISTHETAERUS Why, certainly; are you not born of a stranger woman?
3013PISTHETAERUS Why, what''s the matter, Prometheus?
3013PISTHETAERUS Will you have a high- sounding Laconian name?
3013PISTHETAERUS Will you just pocket your salary, do nothing, and be off?
3013PISTHETAERUS Will you stay with us and form a chorus of winged birds as slender as Leotrophides(1) for the Cecropid tribe?
3013PISTHETAERUS Wo n''t you be off quickly?
3013PISTHETAERUS Would you do this better if you had wings?
3013PISTHETAERUS You, gods?
3013PISTHETAERUS( TO HIS CROW) Cursed beast, what are you croaking to me?...
3013PISTHETAERUS( TO THE TRIBALLIAN) And you, what''s your opinion?
3013POSIDON What else is there to do?
3013PRIEST I begin, but where is he with the basket?
3013PROMETHEUS Can you see any god behind me?
3013PROMETHEUS If there were no barbarian gods, who would be the patron of Execestides?
3013PROMETHEUS Is it the fall of day?
3013PROMETHEUS Their name?
3013PROMETHEUS What is Zeus doing?
3013PROMETHEUS What''s the time, please?
3013PROPHET Is all that there?
3013PROPHET Who am I?
3013PROPHET"But when the wolves and the white crows shall dwell together between Corinth and Sicyon..."PISTHETAERUS But how do the Corinthians concern me?
3013Shall we call it Sparta?
3013TROCHILUS And this other one, what bird is it?
3013TROCHILUS What are you, then?
3013TROCHILUS Who''s there?
3013Us, who have wings and fly?
3013What are you saying?
3013What are you saying?
3013What do you say?
3013What do you want of me?
3013What does it all mean?
3013What god was it?
3013What good thing have you to tell me?
3013What have they done to you?
3013What have you come to do?
3013What is his name?
3013What is this bird from beyond the mountains with a look as solemn as it is stupid?
3013What is this bird?
3013What means this triple crest?
3013What shall our city be called?
3013What then is to be done?
3013What''s that you tell me?
3013What''s the matter?
3013What''s the purpose of your journey?
3013What''s this?
3013What''s your plan?
3013What?
3013Where am I to find him?
3013Where are you off to?
3013Where did you come from, tell me?
3013Where is Pisthetaerus, our leader?
3013Where is Pisthetaerus?
3013Where is he who called me?
3013Where is the chief of the cohort?
3013Where shall I fly to, unfortunate wretch that I am?
3013Where, where, where is he?
3013Where, where, where is he?
3013Who are you?
3013Who are you?
3013Who calls my master?
3013Why did you bring me from down yonder?
3013Why these splendid buskins?
3013Why, nothing whatever but bite and scratch!--What''s the matter with you then, that you keep opening your beak?
3013Why, wretch, to what sacred feast are you inviting the vultures and the sea- eagles?
3013Would anyone call you an old friend of mine?"
3013a bird a barber?
3013a bird or a peacock?
3013and how?
3013and since when, pray?
3013and who sends you here, you rascal?
3013and yet you wear your hair long?
3013are you not delighted to be cleaving the air?
3013are you still there?
3013call my town Sparta?
3013do n''t you want to stop any longer?
3013do you always want to be fooled?
3013do you hear me?
3013do you see what swarms of birds are gathering here?
3013for whom shall we weave the peplus?
3013is not this the pole of the birds then?
3013not a beat of your wing!--Who are you and from what country?
3013there are other gods besides you, barbarian gods who dwell above Olympus?
3013to retrace my steps?
3013to what use can not feet be put?
3013were you so frightened that you let go your jay?
3013what animal are you?
3013what are you doing?
3013what are you up to?
3013what do you say to it?
3013what is this?
3013what is this?
3013where are you flying to?
3013whither are you leading us?
3013wo n''t you hurry yourself?
3013you are by far the most barbarous of all the gods.--Tell me, Heracles, what are we going to do?
3013you are there too?
1658''Why, is he not a philosopher?''
1658):''Why Socrates, who was not a poet, while in prison had been putting Aesop into verse?''
1658); or the mysterious reference to another science( mathematics?)
1658Again, believing in the immortality of the soul, we must still ask the question of Socrates,''What is that which we suppose to be immortal?''
1658Again, upon the supposition that the soul is a harmony, why is one soul better than another?
1658Again, would you not be cautious of affirming that the addition of one to one, or the division of one, is the cause of two?
1658And Socrates observing them asked what they thought of the argument, and whether there was anything wanting?
1658And an absolute beauty and absolute good?
1658And are not the temperate exactly in the same case?
1658And are not we at this day seeking to discover that which Socrates in a glass darkly foresaw?
1658And can all this be true, think you?
1658And did he answer forcibly or feebly?
1658And did we not see and hear and have the use of our other senses as soon as we were born?
1658And do not courageous men face death because they are afraid of yet greater evils?
1658And do we know the nature of this absolute essence?
1658And do you not imagine, he said, that if there were a competition in evil, the worst would be found to be very few?
1658And does not the nature of every harmony depend upon the manner in which the elements are harmonized?
1658And does the soul admit of death?
1658And does the worship of God consist only of praise, or of many forms of service?
1658And has not this been our own case in the matter of equals and of absolute equality?
1658And having neither more nor less of harmony or of discord, one soul has no more vice or virtue than another, if vice be discord and virtue harmony?
1658And how can such a notion of the soul as this agree with the other?
1658And in all these cases, the recollection may be derived from things either like or unlike?
1658And in this the philosopher dishonours the body; his soul runs away from his body and desires to be alone and by herself?
1658And is death the assertion of this individuality in the higher nature, and the falling away into nothingness of the lower?
1658And is not all true virtue the companion of wisdom, no matter what fears or pleasures or other similar goods or evils may or may not attend her?
1658And is not courage, Simmias, a quality which is specially characteristic of the philosopher?
1658And is not the feeling discreditable?
1658And is not this the state in which the soul is most enthralled by the body?
1658And is the soul in agreement with the affections of the body?
1658And is the soul seen or not seen?
1658And is the soul seen or not seen?
1658And is there any opposite to life?
1658And is this always the case?
1658And is this true of all opposites?
1658And may we say that this has been proven?
1658And now the application has to be made: If the soul is immortal,''what manner of persons ought we to be?''
1658And now, he said, what did we just now call that principle which repels the even?
1658And on this oddness, of which the number three has the impress, the opposite idea will never intrude?
1658And one of the two processes or generations is visible-- for surely the act of dying is visible?
1658And return to life, if there be such a thing, is the birth of the dead into the world of the living?
1658And shall we suppose nature to walk on one leg only?
1658And so you think that I ought to answer your indictment as if I were in a court?
1658And that by greatness only great things become great and greater greater, and by smallness the less become less?
1658And that principle which repels the musical, or the just?
1658And that which is not more or less a harmony is not more or less harmonized?
1658And that which is not more or less harmonized can not have more or less of harmony, but only an equal harmony?
1658And the body is more like the changing?
1658And there is no difficulty, he said, in assigning to all of them places answering to their several natures and propensities?
1658And therefore a soul which is absolutely a soul has no vice?
1658And therefore has neither more nor less of discord, nor yet of harmony?
1658And therefore, previously?
1658And these, if they are opposites, are generated the one from the other, and have there their two intermediate processes also?
1658And they are generated one from the other?
1658And this impress was given by the odd principle?
1658And this separation and release of the soul from the body is termed death?
1658And this state of the soul is called wisdom?
1658And to the odd is opposed the even?
1658And to which class is the body more alike and akin?
1658And to which class is the soul more nearly alike and akin, as far as may be inferred from this argument, as well as from the preceding one?
1658And what about the pleasures of love-- should he care for them?
1658And what do we call the principle which does not admit of death?
1658And what from the dead?
1658And what is it?
1658And what is now your notion of such matters?
1658And what is that process?
1658And what is that?
1658And what is the nature of this knowledge or recollection?
1658And what we mean by''seen''and''not seen''is that which is or is not visible to the eye of man?
1658And whence did we obtain our knowledge?
1658And where shall we find a good charmer of our fears, Socrates, when you are gone?
1658And which alternative, Simmias, do you prefer?
1658And which does the soul resemble?
1658And which of his friends were with him?
1658And yet from these equals, although differing from the idea of equality, you conceived and attained that idea?
1658And yet what is the feeling of lovers when they recognize a lyre, or a garment, or anything else which the beloved has been in the habit of using?
1658And yet, he said, the number two is certainly not opposed to the number three?
1658And, further, is not one part of us body, another part soul?
1658Are not all things which have opposites generated out of their opposites?
1658Are not these, Simmias and Cebes, the points which we have to consider?
1658Are they equals in the same sense in which absolute equality is equal?
1658Are they more or less harmonized, or is there one harmony within another?
1658Are they not, Cebes, such as compel the things of which they have possession, not only to take their own form, but also the form of some opposite?
1658Are they not, as the poets are always telling us, inaccurate witnesses?
1658Are we not at the same time describing them both in superlatives, only that we may satisfy the demands of rhetoric?
1658At any rate you can decide whether he who has knowledge will or will not be able to render an account of his knowledge?
1658At the same time, turning to Cebes, he said: Are you at all disconcerted, Cebes, at our friend''s objection?
1658But are real equals ever unequal?
1658But are they the same as fire and snow?
1658But did you ever behold any of them with your eyes?
1658But do you mean to take away your thoughts with you, Socrates?
1658But do you think that every man is able to give an account of these very matters about which we are speaking?
1658But does the soul admit of degrees?
1658But enough of them:--let us discuss the matter among ourselves: Do we believe that there is such a thing as death?
1658But if it be true, then is not the body liable to speedy dissolution?
1658But is this the only thing which is called odd?
1658But what followed?
1658But what would you say of equal portions of wood and stone, or other material equals?
1658But when did our souls acquire this knowledge?--not since we were born as men?
1658But why, asks Cebes, if he is a possession of the gods, should he wish to die and leave them?
1658By all means, replied Socrates; what else should I please?
1658Can this, my dear Cebes, be denied?
1658Cebes asks why suicide is thought not to be right, if death is to be accounted a good?
1658Could he have written this under the idea that the soul is a harmony of the body?
1658Did he appear to share the unpleasant feeling which you mention?
1658Did you never observe this?
1658Do not they, from knowing the lyre, form in the mind''s eye an image of the youth to whom the lyre belongs?
1658Do we lose them at the moment of receiving them, or if not at what other time?
1658Do you agree in this notion of the cause?
1658Do you agree?
1658Do you agree?
1658Do you know of any?
1658Do you not agree with me?
1658Do you not agree?
1658Does not the divine appear to you to be that which naturally orders and rules, and the mortal to be that which is subject and servant?
1658Does their life cease at death, or is there some''better thing reserved''also for them?
1658ECHECRATES: And was Aristippus there, and Cleombrotus?
1658ECHECRATES: Any one else?
1658ECHECRATES: Well, and what did you talk about?
1658ECHECRATES: Were you yourself, Phaedo, in the prison with Socrates on the day when he drank the poison?
1658ECHECRATES: What followed?
1658ECHECRATES: What is this ship?
1658ECHECRATES: What was the manner of his death, Phaedo?
1658ECHECRATES: Who were present?
1658Enough of them: the real question is, What is the nature of that death which he desires?
1658For are we not imagining Heaven under the similitude of a church, and Hell as a prison, or perhaps a madhouse or chamber of horrors?
1658For example, when the body is hot and thirsty, does not the soul incline us against drinking?
1658For example; Will not the number three endure annihilation or anything sooner than be converted into an even number, while remaining three?
1658For how can one be divided into two?
1658For if the living spring from any other things, and they too die, must not all things at last be swallowed up in death?
1658For what can be the meaning of a truly wise man wanting to fly away and lightly leave a master who is better than himself?
1658For what could be more convincing than the argument of Socrates, which has now fallen into discredit?
1658For what idea can we form of the soul when separated from the body?
1658From the senses then is derived the knowledge that all sensible things aim at an absolute equality of which they fall short?
1658Had we the knowledge at our birth, or did we recollect the things which we knew previously to our birth?
1658Has the reality of them ever been perceived by you through the bodily organs?
1658Have we not seen dogs more faithful and intelligent than men, and men who are more stupid and brutal than any animals?
1658He proceeded: And did you deny the force of the whole preceding argument, or of a part only?
1658He proceeds: When we fear that the soul will vanish away, let us ask ourselves what is that which we suppose to be liable to dissolution?
1658Heat is a thing different from fire, and cold is not the same with snow?
1658How can she have, if the previous argument holds?
1658How shall they bury him?
1658How so?
1658How so?
1658I mean to say, have sight and hearing any truth in them?
1658I mean what I may illustrate by the following instance:--The knowledge of a lyre is not the same as the knowledge of a man?
1658I will try to make this clearer by an example:--The odd number is always called by the name of odd?
1658Instead of caring about them, does he not rather despise anything more than nature needs?
1658Is it not the separation of soul and body?
1658Is it the personal and individual element in us, or the spiritual and universal?
1658Is it the principle of knowledge or of goodness, or the union of the two?
1658Is it the simple or the compound, the unchanging or the changing, the invisible idea or the visible object of sense?
1658Is not death opposed to life?
1658Is not forgetting, Simmias, just the losing of knowledge?
1658Is not the separation and release of the soul from the body their especial study?
1658Is not this true, Cebes?
1658Is the Pythagorean image of the harmony, or that of the monad, the truer expression?
1658Is the blood the element with which we think, or the air, or the fire?
1658Is the soul related to the body as sight to the eye, or as the boatman to his boat?
1658Is the suffering physical or mental?
1658May I, or not?
1658May not the science of physiology transform the world?
1658May they not rather be described as almost always changing and hardly ever the same, either with themselves or with one another?
1658May we be allowed to imagine the minds of men everywhere working together during many ages for the completion of our knowledge?
1658Must we not rather assign to death some corresponding process of generation?
1658Must we not, said Socrates, ask ourselves what that is which, as we imagine, is liable to be scattered, and about which we fear?
1658Nay rather, are we not contradicting Homer and ourselves in affirming anything of the sort?
1658Now if it be true that the living come from the dead, then our souls must exist in the other world, for if not, how could they have been born again?
1658Now which of these two functions is akin to the divine?
1658Of all this we may certainly affirm that we acquired the knowledge before birth?
1658Of what nature?
1658Once more, he said, what ruler is there of the elements of human nature other than the soul, and especially the wise soul?
1658Or are we vainly attempting to pass the boundaries of human thought?
1658Or did the authorities forbid them to be present-- so that he had no friends near him when he died?
1658Or do or suffer anything other than they do or suffer?
1658Or how can the soul be united with the body and still be independent?
1658Or look at the matter in another way:--Do not the same pieces of wood or stone appear at one time equal, and at another time unequal?
1658Or two be compounded into one?
1658Or you may also be led to the recollection of Simmias himself?
1658PHAEDO: Did you not hear of the proceedings at the trial?
1658Philosophers have spoken of them as forms of the human mind, but what is the mind without them?
1658Please to tell me then, Cebes, he said, what was the difficulty which troubled you?
1658Seeing then that the immortal is indestructible, must not the soul, if she is immortal, be also imperishable?
1658Shall he make a libation of the poison?
1658Shall we exclude the opposite process?
1658Shall we say so?
1658Shall we say with Aristotle, that the soul is the entelechy or form of an organized living body?
1658Socrates alone retained his calmness: What is this strange outcry?
1658Socrates replied with a smile: O Simmias, what are you saying?
1658Socrates replied: And have you, Cebes and Simmias, who are the disciples of Philolaus, never heard him speak of this?
1658Supposing that the odd were imperishable, must not three be imperishable?
1658Tell me, I implore you, how did Socrates proceed?
1658Tell me, then, what is that of which the inherence will render the body alive?
1658That is to say, before we were born, I suppose?
1658The debt shall be paid, said Crito; is there anything else?
1658The question,''Whence come our abstract ideas?''
1658The seen is the changing, and the unseen is the unchanging?
1658The worst of men are objects of pity rather than of anger to the philanthropist; must they not be equally such to divine benevolence?
1658Then must not true existence be revealed to her in thought, if at all?
1658Then one soul not being more or less absolutely a soul than another, is not more or less harmonized?
1658Then tell me, Socrates, why is suicide held to be unlawful?
1658Then the idea of the even number will never arrive at three?
1658Then the inference is that our souls exist in the world below?
1658Then the living, whether things or persons, Cebes, are generated from the dead?
1658Then the soul is immortal?
1658Then the soul is more like to the unseen, and the body to the seen?
1658Then the triad or number three is uneven?
1658Then these( so- called) equals are not the same with the idea of equality?
1658Then three has no part in the even?
1658Then we are agreed after all, said Socrates, that the opposite will never in any case be opposed to itself?
1658Then we must have acquired the knowledge of equality at some previous time?
1658Then whatever the soul possesses, to that she comes bearing life?
1658Then you are not of opinion, Simmias, that all men know these things?
1658Then, if all souls are equally by their nature souls, all souls of all living creatures will be equally good?
1658They are in process of recollecting that which they learned before?
1658True, Cebes, said Socrates; and shall I suggest that we converse a little of the probabilities of these things?
1658Unseen then?
1658Was not that a reasonable notion?
1658We will do our best, said Crito: And in what way shall we bury you?
1658Well, and is there not an opposite of life, as sleep is the opposite of waking?
1658Well, but is Cebes equally satisfied?
1658Well, but there is another thing, Simmias: Is there or is there not an absolute justice?
1658Well; and may you not also from seeing the picture of a horse or a lyre remember a man?
1658What again shall we say of the actual acquirement of knowledge?--is the body, if invited to share in the enquiry, a hinderer or a helper?
1658What answer can be made to the old commonplace,''Is not God the author of evil, if he knowingly permitted, but could have prevented it?''
1658What can I do better in the interval between this and the setting of the sun?
1658What did he say in his last hours?
1658What do you mean, Socrates?
1658What do you mean, Socrates?
1658What do you mean?
1658What do you mean?
1658What do you mean?
1658What do you mean?
1658What do you say?
1658What do you say?
1658What do you think?
1658What is generated from the living?
1658What is it, Socrates?
1658What is that pain which does not become deadened after a thousand years?
1658What is to become of the animals in a future state?
1658What natures do you mean, Socrates?
1658What shall I do with them?
1658What then is to be the result?
1658What was said or done?
1658What was the reason of this?
1658Whence come wars, and fightings, and factions?
1658Where are the actions worthy of rewards greater than those which are conferred on the greatest benefactors of mankind?
1658Wherefore, Simmias, seeing all these things, what ought not we to do that we may obtain virtue and wisdom in this life?
1658Which might be like, or might be unlike them?
1658Which of them will you retain?
1658Why are they the happiest?
1658Why do you say, enquired Cebes, that a man ought not to take his own life, but that the philosopher will be ready to follow the dying?
1658Why should the wicked suffer any more than ourselves?
1658Why then should he repine when the hour of separation arrives?
1658Why, if he is dead while he lives, should he fear that other death, through which alone he can behold wisdom in her purity?
1658Why, said Socrates,--is not Evenus a philosopher?
1658Will he not depart with joy?
1658Will you not allow that I have as much of the spirit of prophecy in me as the swans?
1658Would you not say that he is entirely concerned with the soul and not with the body?
1658Yes, my friend, but if so, when do we lose them?
1658You must have observed this trait of character?
1658You would agree; would you not?
1658You would be afraid to draw such an inference, would you not?
1658and are we convinced that all of them are generated out of opposites?
1658and from the picture of Simmias, you may be led to remember Cebes?
1658and is not the soul almost or altogether indissoluble?
1658and what again is that about which we have no fear?
1658and what is the impression produced by them?
1658and when the body is hungry, against eating?
1658and which to the mortal?
1658and yet, if even they are inaccurate and indistinct, what is to be said of the other senses?--for you will allow that they are the best of them?
1658had we been placed in their circumstances should we have been any better than they?
1658he said; for these are the consequences which seem to follow from the assumption that the soul is a harmony?
1658or did he calmly meet the attack?
1658or do they fall short of this perfect equality in a measure?
1658or is one soul in the very least degree more or less, or more or less completely, a soul than another?
1658or is she at variance with them?
1658or is the idea of equality the same as of inequality?
1658or what is the nature of that pleasure or happiness which never wearies by monotony?
1658or with Plato, that she has a life of her own?
1658whence but from the body and the lusts of the body?
55317Are you then to be a fool because they are?
55317For what,you say,"can be more delightful than such things?"
55317Should we, then, be among those who in a manner know not what they do?
55317''Can then such a one count death a thing of dread?''
55317Accustom yourself as much as possible, when any one takes any action, to consider only: To what end is he working?
55317Accustom yourself so, and only so, to think, that, if any one were suddenly to ask you,"Of what are you thinking- now?"
55317Alexander, Caesar, Pompey, what were they compared with Diogenes, Heraclitus, Socrates?
55317All our assent is inconsistent, for where is the consistent man?
55317Am I doing aught?
55317Am I equipped for nothing but to lie among the bed- clothes and keep warm?
55317And afterwards, what shall signify to you the clatter of their voices, or the opinions they shall entertain about you?
55317And can you call anything a miscarriage of his nature which is not contrary to its purpose?
55317And how else can this come than from sound general principles regarding Nature as a whole, and the constitution of man in particular?
55317And how will the one secure safety to the crew, or the other health to the patients?
55317And if the sense of moral evil be gone as well, why should a man wish to remain alive?
55317And if there be no Gods, or if they have no regard to human affairs, why should I desire to live in a world void of Gods and without Providence?
55317And if they were still mourning could their masters be sensible of it?
55317And in what case will they shortly be?
55317And then, in what are you injured?
55317And till the fulness of the time be come what is to suffice you?
55317And what is sweeter than wisdom itself, when you are conscious of security and felicity in your powers of apprehension and reason?
55317And wherein here is the harm for them; or even for men whose names are not remembered?
55317And wherein is it strange or evil that the man untaught acts after his kind?
55317And who has told you that the Gods aid us not in these things also which are in our power?
55317And why does it not suffice you to live out your short span in well ordered wise?
55317And will you refuse the part in this design which is laid on man?
55317And without change of opinion what is their state but a slavery, under which they groan, while they pretend to obey?
55317And, if in their successive interchanges no harm befall the elements, why should one suspect any in the change and dissolution of the whole?
55317Are any of these troubles new?
55317Are there thorns in the way?
55317Are they not different, yet all jointly working for the same end?
55317Are you angry with one whose armpits smell or whose breath is foul?
55317Are you cast forth from the natural unity?
55317Are you distracted by the poor thing called fame?
55317Are you grieved that you weigh only these few pounds, and not three hundred?
55317As each presents itself ask yourself: Is there anything intolerable and insufferable in this?
55317As soon as you awake ask yourself: Will it be of consequence to you if what is just and good be done by some other man?
55317But how remove them?
55317But now where are they?
55317But to the living what is the profit in praise, except it be in some convenience that it brings?
55317But what if there be naught beyond the atoms?
55317But, in my own case, how many more reasons are there why a multitude would rejoice to be rid of me?
55317Can any useful thing be done without changes?
55317Can he be pleased with himself who repents of almost everything he does?
55317Can it be said that you have ever acted towards all of them in the spirit of the line:-- He wrought no harshness, spoke no unkind word?
55317Can one by scanting praise depreciate gold, ivory, or purple, a lyre or a dagger, a flower or a shrub?
55317Can we set our pride on such matters?
55317Can you be fed unless a change is wrought upon your food?
55317Can you call that a misfortune for a man which is not a miscarriage of his nature?
55317Can you desire to please one who is not pleased with himself?
55317Can you heat your bath unless wood undergoes a change?
55317Dismiss the vanity called fame, and what remains to be prized?
55317Do not add,"Why were such things brought into the world?"
55317Do pain and pleasure affect you?
55317Do the ills of the body still have power to touch you?
55317Do you ask a reward for it?
55317Do you dread change?
55317Do you not see, then, that this change also which is working in you is even such as these, and alike necessary to the nature of the Universe?
55317Do you wish to be praised by a man who curses himself thrice within an hour?
55317Does Panthea or Pergamus now sit mourning at the tomb of Verus, or Chabrias or Diotimus at the tomb of Hadrian?
55317Does another wrong me?
55317Does any man contemn me?
55317Does any one hate me?
55317Does anything hinder your designs?
55317Does aught befall me?
55317Does the emerald lose its virtue if one praise it not?
55317Does the sun pretend to perform the work of the rain, or Aesculapius that of Ceres?
55317For at what do you fret?
55317For how can that make a man''s life worse which does not corrupt the man himself?
55317For how small is the difference?
55317For pleasure?
55317For the rest, why should we hold this to be difficult?
55317For what end are you formed?
55317For what should we be zealous?
55317For who can change the opinions of men?
55317Grant that your memory were immortal, and those immortal who retain it; yet what is that to you?
55317Has a man sinned?
55317Has aught befallen you?
55317Has error in the mind less power than a little bile in the jaundiced, or a little poison in him who is bitten?
55317Have I done anything for the common good?
55317Have you reason?
55317Have you then chosen rather to abide in evil; or has experience not yet persuaded you to fly from amidst the plague?
55317He was not indeed hard on any of us; but I always felt that he tacitly condemned us"?
55317How can the great principles of life become dead if the impressions which correspond to them be not extinguished?
55317How can you act that part?
55317How cheap is all that is so eagerly pursued?
55317How is it that unskilled and ignorant souls disturb the skilful and intelligent?
55317How is it with your ruling part?
55317How long shall it endure?
55317How then shall you get this perpetual living fount within you?
55317How, I answer, does the earth contain so many bodies buried during so long a time?
55317I ask not, what is that to the dead?
55317I can always form the proper opinion of this or that; and, if so, why am I disturbed?
55317If even that be impossible, what purpose can your accusations serve?
55317If it be in another''s, whom do you accuse?
55317If it be the former, why should I wish to linger amid this aimless chaos and confusion, or have any further care than"how to become earth again"?
55317If my house be smoky, I go out, and where is the great matter?
55317If not, is there greater reason to sorrow if you live only so many years and no longer?
55317If our souls survive us, how, you ask, has the air contained them from eternity?
55317If the doing of this be in your own power, why do it thus?
55317If the fault be not my sin, nor a consequence of it, if there be no damage to the common good, why am I perturbed about it?
55317If the sailors revile their pilot, or the sick their physician, whom will they follow or obey?
55317If there be an unalterable necessity, why strive against it?
55317If they have no power, why do you pray?
55317If you are grieved about anything in your own disposition, who can prevent you from correcting your principles of life?
55317If, then, that alone can befall anything which is usual and natural, what cause is there for indignation?
55317In the present matter what is the soundest that can be done or said?
55317In this vast river, on whose bosom there is no tarrying, what is there among the things that sweep by us that is worth the prizing?
55317Is it a child''s?
55317Is it a youth''s, a timorous woman''s, or a tyrant''s; the soul of a tame beast or of a savage one?
55317Is it fear?
55317Is it glued to, and mingled with, the flesh so as to follow each fleshly motion?
55317Is it loosened and rent from the great community?
55317Is it not a common saying that,"so- and- so loves to happen?"
55317Is it not cruel to restrain men from pursuing what appears to be their own advantage?
55317Is it not enough for you that you have acted in this according to your nature?
55317Is it not grievous that the intellectual part alone should be disobedient, and fret at its function?
55317Is it of evil omen to say the corn is reaped?"
55317Is it the cause?
55317Is it the matter?
55317Is it void of understanding?
55317Is it your allotted part in the world''s destiny that chagrins you?
55317Is my understanding sufficient for this business or not?
55317Is not this itself my advantage?
55317Is not this the very snare which Pleasure sets for us?
55317Is pleasure, then, the object of your being, and not action, and the exercise of your powers?
55317Is the gourd bitter?
55317Is there anything to dread here?
55317It is against nature for men to oppose each other; and what else is anger and aversion?
55317It is difficult to imagine Gods wanting in forethought, and what could move them to do me wilful harm?
55317It is useful also to have this reflection ready: What virtue has nature given to man wherewith to combat this fault?
55317Lust?
55317Nay, was it not manifest that the inferior kinds were formed for the superior, and the superior for each other?
55317Nay, why am I disturbed at all?
55317No man can lose either the past or the future, for how can a man be deprived of what he has not?
55317Nowhere; or who can tell?
55317Of each thing ask: What is this in itself and by its constitution?
55317On every occasion, then, ask yourself the question, Is this thing not unnecessary?
55317Or any such passion?
55317Or if they were pleased with it, could the mourners live for ever?
55317Or if they were sensible of it, would it give them any pleasure?
55317Or is it to feel or to desire?
55317Rational of what kind, virtuous or vicious?
55317Shall I never repent of it?
55317Shall you find anything that is worth all this?
55317Should he then begin an angry dispute about it, would you also grow angry, and not rather mildly count over the several letters to him?
55317Should some one ask you how the name Antoninus is written, would you not carefully pronounce to him each one of the letters?
55317Suspicion?
55317The Universe, then, must in a manner be a state, for of what other common polity can all mankind be said to be members?
55317The atoms or the Gods?
55317The cunning men who foretold the fates of others, or who swelled with pride-- where are they now?
55317The gardener, the vine- dresser, the horse- breaker, the dog- trainer all try for this; and what else is the aim of all education and teaching?
55317Then let this occur to you: Where, now, are these?
55317Then stop and ask, Where are they all now?
55317This from Plato:"''To the man who has true grandeur of mind, and who contemplates all time and all being, can human life appear a great matter?
55317This is quite in your power; for who shall hinder you from being good and single- hearted?
55317To be received with clapping of hands?
55317To grow and to decay again?
55317To have the souls of rational beings or of irrational?
55317To live on?
55317To speak or think?
55317To those who ask,"Where have you seen the Gods, and how assured yourself of their existence, that you worship them?"
55317To what end am I using my soul?
55317Upon every action ask yourself, what is the effect of this for me?
55317Was it not fate that they should grow old men and women, and then die?
55317What advantage would thence accrue, either to themselves or to the Universe which is their special care?
55317What am I making of it, and to what purpose am I now using it?
55317What are they whose opinions and whose voices bestow renown?
55317What are you doing, man?
55317What can be pleasanter or more proper to universal nature?
55317What can come without it?
55317What do you desire?
55317What do you desire?
55317What do you here, Imagination?
55317What else than a life spent in fearing and praising the Gods, and in the practice of benevolence, toleration and forbearance towards men?
55317What excites you so?
55317What has this to do with your soul remaining pure, prudent, temperate, and just?
55317What if some one, standing by a clear sweet fountain, should reproach it?
55317What is it then that pronounces upon them?
55317What is it to die?
55317What is its business in the Universe?
55317What is its cause?
55317What is its substance or matter?
55317What is my soul to me?
55317What is now my thought?
55317What is the end of their striving; and on what accounts do they love and honour?
55317What is the use?
55317What is vice?
55317What is your art?
55317What manner of souls have these men?
55317What more is there to see?
55317What more should I desire if my present action is becoming to an intelligent and a social being, subject to the same law with Gods?
55317What need for suspicion when it is open for you to consider what ought to be done?
55317What of all this?
55317What of the several stars?
55317What principles?
55317What remains but to enjoy life, adding one good to an another, so as not to lose the smallest interval?
55317What shall it become when it grows old, or sickly, or decayed?
55317What shall the wicked man do, having a wicked disposition?
55317What sort of man then does he appear to you who pursues the applause or dreads the anger of those who know neither where nor what they are?
55317What sort of men are they when they are eating, sleeping, procreating, easing nature, and the like?
55317What then avails to guide us?
55317What then should detain you here?
55317What then will it be when, after due deliberation it has fixed its judgment according to reason?
55317What then?
55317What would you more, when you have done a man a kindness?
55317What, I ask, is the skilful and intelligent soul?
55317What, after all, was your aim?
55317What, indeed, can fit you better?
55317What, then, if you are lame, and can not scale the battlements alone, but can with another''s help?
55317What, then, is it to be remembered for ever?
55317What, then, is of value?
55317What, then, is the key to this enquiry?
55317What, then, would become of the illustrious dead when these faithful souls were gone?
55317When it performs its proper office what more do you require?
55317When shall the end be?
55317When you are offended by the shamelessness of any man, straightway ask yourself: Can the world exist without shameless men?
55317When you have the impression that a man has sinned, say to yourself:"How do I know that this is sin?"
55317Whence do we conclude that Telauges had not a brighter genius than Socrates?
55317Where are these keen wits, Charax, and Demetrius the Platonist, and Eudaemon, and their like?
55317Where is the bubble''s good while it holds together, where is the evil when it is broken?
55317Where is the wonder?
55317Where, then, is it?
55317Where, then, is it?
55317Where, then, is the good for the ball in its rising; where the harm in dropping; where even is the harm when it has fallen down?
55317Wherefore it is from this common state that we derive our intellectual power, our reason, and our law; or whence do we derive them?
55317Wherein is the harm to the common good?
55317Wherein is their gain greater than that of those who died before their time?
55317Which of all these seems worthy to be desired?
55317Who hinders you?
55317Who then hinders you from casting it away?
55317Whomsoever you meet, say straightway to yourself:--What are this man''s principles of good and evil?
55317Why are you disturbed?
55317Why should you act the like part?
55317Why then are you disturbed?
55317Why then do you fight and stand at variance?
55317Why then do you not seek after such souls?
55317Why then do you not use it?
55317Why then should one strive for a longer sojourn here?
55317Why then this concern?
55317Why, then, am I angry?
55317Why, then, should we dwell more on the misfortune of the incident than on the felicity of such strength of mind?
55317Will you not pursue the course which accords with your own nature?
55317Will you, then, cease valuing the multitude of other things?
55317Wilt thou be satisfied with thy present state, and well pleased with every present circumstance?
55317Wilt thou ever taste of the loving and satisfied temper?
55317Wilt thou ever, O my soul, be good and single, and one, and naked, more open to view than the body which surrounds thee?
55317Wilt thou never be able to live a fellow citizen with Gods and men, approving them and by them approved?
55317You have learned its purpose, have you not?
55317You have lived, O man, as a citizen of this great city; of what consequence to you whether for five years or for three?
55317You mount the rostra and cry aloud,"O man, have you forgotten what is the real value of what you seek?"
14994''Tis well thought,the old man made answer;"but where shall I do the deed?"
14994A stranger, sayest thou? 14994 And did men judge of him as living or dead?"
14994And did the King leave any other child behind him?
14994And dost thou not dishonour him when thou honourest his enemy?
14994And hath it aught else, as wealth sufficient?
14994And hath the taking of the city so long delayed him? 14994 And how wilt thou deal with the other?"
14994And is his son yet alive?
14994And is there none that can help thee?
14994And of what country is he, and who is his father?
14994And should it hinder him that there is some stranger dead in the house?
14994And the master of these steeds, whose son is he?
14994And thou wast ready to answer for this deed?
14994And to whom shall I give it?
14994And what if a wife slay her husband?
14994And what is thy name?
14994And where didst thou leave him? 14994 And who are these?
14994And who is master of their army?
14994And who of the men of Trachis is so cunning in leechcraft?
14994And why did my son seek to subdue this city?
14994And why do ye pursue this man?
14994Art thou going a journey from me, my father?
14994Art thou, then, he?
14994Aye,said the Queen,"and I would lead them myself; but where shall I slay him?"
14994Aye,said the old man,"but how wilt thou deal with King Achilles?
14994But if it be so, my sister, how can we avail to change it?
14994But is it not a base thing for a man to lie?
14994But may I not believe that which I have seen with mine own eyes?
14994But say,said the King,"what troubles thee so much?"
14994But say,said the Queen,"who began this battle of ships?
14994But where,answered the Queen,"is it your pleasure that I should be?"
14994But who shall hinder me?
14994But why may I not persuade him, or even constrain him by force?
14994But why slayest thou me in darkness, if this deed be just?
14994But why wilt thou empty thy hands? 14994 But,"said the Queen,"why cometh not the herald himself?"
14994Can I endure to be so base,said the Prince,"hiding that which I should declare, and speaking the thing that is false?"
14994Can it be well to honour them that transgress? 14994 Dead are they?
14994Did aught compel him to this deed?
14994Do not my tidings please thee?
14994Do the men make war with bows?
14994Doth the dead then think so lightly of me?
14994Glad art thou? 14994 Hadst thou then a share in this matter of Troy?"
14994Hast thou hold of her?
14994Hast thou, then, yet worse to bear than these?
14994Hath it, then, so many men that draw the sword?
14994Hath thy lord then suffered some sorrow that he told me not?
14994He hath none-- what need hath the living of a tomb?
14994How daredst thou to transgress the laws?
14994How didst thou learn this?
14994How didst thou slay her?
14994How knowest thou but that such honour pleaseth the Gods below?
14994How sayest thou that they live? 14994 How sayest thou?
14994How so, if this is the body of my Orestes?
14994How so? 14994 How so?
14994How so?
14994How wilt thou do this? 14994 How, then, can they abide the onset of the Persians?"
14994I know thy good will, but what profiteth it? 14994 If thou hast justice, what need of thy bow?"
14994Liveth he, then?
14994Lord of fire, that rulest this land of Lemnos, hearest thou this?
14994Must I make it alone, or with my mother?
14994Nay, what is this?
14994Nay,said the King;"shall I be taught by such an one as thou?"
14994Not akin? 14994 Now what shall I say to my wife?
14994O my sister, wilt thou do this when Creon hath forbidden it?
14994Of what city in the land of Greece are ye? 14994 Payeth he thus some vow, or did some oracle command it?"
14994Sailed he then before you?
14994Sayest thou that I must return? 14994 Sayest thou''without cause''when my brother is dead?"
14994Seest thou this sword whereto I lay my hand?
14994Sendest thou me to dwell elsewhere?
14994Shall I lead the dances, my father?
14994Shall the dead help thee that didst slay thy mother?
14994Shall then the wicked have like honour with the good?
14994Speakest thou of trouble greater than that which I now endure?
14994Tell me now, which of ye two is called Pylades?
14994Tell me, then, who is this woman whom thou hast brought?
14994The people, sayest thou? 14994 Thou art resolved then to do this thing or to die?"
14994What are thy tidings, though I tremble to hear them?
14994What deed? 14994 What ease, when they are past all remedy?"
14994What hast thou to do with that? 14994 What lies are these?
14994What meaneth thy sorrow? 14994 What sayest thou?
14994What sayest thou? 14994 What sayest thou?
14994What sayest thou? 14994 What sayest thou?"
14994What should compel a man to such wickedness?
14994What then? 14994 What then?"
14994What treachery is this? 14994 What troubleth thee, lady, in these news?"
14994What wickedness, then, had these strangers wrought?
14994What will this profit her that is dead?
14994What wilt thou then? 14994 What wrong?
14994What, then, would ye have done?
14994What? 14994 What?
14994What?
14994Where didst thou find it?
14994Where is he? 14994 Who art thou that inquirest thus about matters in Greece?"
14994Who constraineth thee?
14994Who counselled thee to this deed?
14994Who slew her? 14994 Who told thee this tale that thou believest so strangely?"
14994Whom sayest thou they murdered?
14994Why not? 14994 Why should he stand between me and mine?"
14994Wilt thou not speak out thy news and then begone?
14994Wilt thou not tell me thy country?
14994Wilt thou then slay them both?
14994With good intent, thou wicked boy, when she slew her husband?
14994With water from the river, or in the sea?
14994Would ye have commended me the more if I had caused him to depart from this house and this city? 14994 Yet they who attend him please thee not?"
14994And I, if I had an ill purpose, and now have changed it for that which is wiser, dost thou charge me with folly?
14994And King Agamemnon said,''How shall I do this thing, and slay my own daughter, even Iphigenia, who is the joy and beauty of my dwelling?
14994And Menelaüs answered,"Seest thou this letter that I hold in my hand?"
14994And Orestes, whom I barely saved from thy hand, liveth he not in exile?
14994And Philoctetes made answer,"Nay, is not this a fitting thing, seeing of what sire thou art the son, to help a brave man in his trouble?"
14994And Philoctetes made reply,"Knowest thou not whom thou seest?
14994And also how could she, being young, abide in my house, for young I judge her to be?
14994And are ye brothers born of one mother?"
14994And as for this Polynices, thinketh he that signs and devices will give him that which he coveteth?
14994And as he spake these words, he perceived that Medea wept, and said,"Why weepest thou?"
14994And hath not this woman transgressed?"
14994And having sworn it, he said,"But what if a storm overtake me, and the tablet be lost, and I only be saved?"
14994And he answered,"What is it, lady?
14994And he answered,"What sayest thou, lady?
14994And how fares old Nestor of Pylos?"
14994And if I die before my time, what loss?
14994And now King Menelaüs came back, saying that it repented him of what he had said,"For why should thy child die for me?
14994And now think whose should this be but his?
14994And now thou art come, what shall I say?
14994And now what dost thou purpose?"
14994And of the maiden, what shall I say?
14994And one said,"Remember ye not what we saw when the army set forth from the city?
14994And shall not I do pleasure to the dead rather than to the living, seeing that I shall abide with the dead for ever?
14994And shall we not fall into a worse destruction than any, if we transgress these commands of the King?
14994And the Prince said,"What meanest thou by thy''double honour''?
14994And the spirit spake to the Furies, for these were yet fast asleep, saying,"Sleep ye?
14994And the spirit spake, saying,"What trouble is this that seemeth to have come upon the land?
14994And then-- for she took the two for brothers-- she asked them, saying,"Who is your mother, and your father, and your sister, if a sister you have?
14994And thy children-- art thou a mother to them?
14994And what will it profit us if we get great renown, yet die in shameful fashion?
14994And when Death saw him, he said--"What doest thou here, Apollo?
14994And when Ismené saw that she prevailed nothing with her sister, she turned to the King and said,"Wilt thou slay the bride of thy son?"
14994And when he was come to the gates of his palace he cried,"How shall I enter thee?
14994And when he was loath to listen to her, she said,"Seest thou this that I hold in my hand?"
14994And when the Furies saw him they cried,"What hast thou to do with this matter, King Apollo?"
14994And when the King saw him he asked,"What seekest thou, wisest of men?"
14994And when the King saw him, he said,"Art thou content, my son, with thy father''s judgment?"
14994And when the Prince had told his name and lineage, and that he was sailing from Troy, Philoctetes cried,"Sayest thou from Troy?
14994And when the Queen saw him she cried,"What news hast thou of my husband?
14994And when the youth saw this he cried,"Who is it that hath plotted my death?
14994And when they cried,"O my King, who shall do thee due honour at thy burial, and speak thy praise, and weep for thee?"
14994And whence come ye?"
14994And while they went to fetch the maiden Ismené, Antigone said to the King,"Is it not enough for thee to slay me?
14994And who are ye that are so strange of aspect, being like neither to the Gods nor to the daughters of men?"
14994And yet he gave me entertainment?"
14994And yet shall my enemies triumph over me and laugh me to scorn?
14994And yet what profiteth me to live?
14994Are there not, thinkest thou, robes enough and gold enough in the treasure of the King?
14994Art thou not ashamed to work such wrong to a suppliant?
14994Art thou not wife to him that was thy fellow in this deed?
14994Art thou of his kindred?"
14994Art thou, perchance, a kinsman?"
14994As for me I shall fall in this land, for am I not a seer?
14994But Patroclus, where was he when thy father died?"
14994But as for these children, wilt thou not persuade the King that he suffer them to dwell here?"
14994But at the last he said,"Is this the Princess Electra whom I see?"
14994But blood that hath been spilt upon the earth, what charmer can bring back?
14994But come, tell me; where doth he bury her?
14994But how shall I contrive it?
14994But of the end what need to speak?
14994But she said,"What have I done, my son, that thou so abhorrest me?"
14994But tell me now, hath Menelaüs had safe return?"
14994But tell me, messenger, what befell them that escaped from the battle?"
14994But tell me, my lord, why dost thou drive me out of thy land?"
14994But the King was very wroth when he heard this outcry, and cried,"Think ye to make bold the hearts of our men by these lamentations?
14994But the Queen said,"What?
14994But there was a certain Agamemnon, son of Atreus, what of him?"
14994But what had the Greeks to do with child of mine?
14994But what profiteth it to deceive?
14994But what will she say when she knoweth my purpose?
14994But what, I pray thee, bringeth thee to this land?"
14994But when Electra heard it, she said,"Comest thou with proof of this ill news that we have heard?"
14994But when Orestes heard this, he brake in,"Where is this Iphigenia?
14994But when she was gone, Orestes said to Pylades,"Pylades, what thinkest thou?
14994But when the Gods are minded to destroy a man, who is so strong that he can escape?
14994But why art thou silent and castest thine eyes to the ground?
14994But why do I compare myself with you?
14994But why dost thou pamper me with luxury, or make my goings hateful to the Gods, strewing this purple under my feet?
14994But why pitiest thou me as doth no other man?
14994But, hold, was not he that fell in battle with this man thy brother also?"
14994By what Gods shall I swear?"
14994Callest thou this taking vengeance for thy daughter that was slain?
14994Canst thou endure that we should live deprived of the wealth that was our father''s; and also that we should grow old unmated?
14994Did not Zeus slay the man who raised the dead?
14994Did the Greeks begin, or my son, trusting in the greatness of his host?"
14994Didst thou slay thy mother?"
14994Do thou therefore make this recompense, which indeed thou owest to me, for what will not a man give for his life?
14994Dost thou keep watch and ward over this woman with thine arrows and thy bow?"
14994Dost thou not know this Diomed?"
14994Dost thou not see him?''"
14994For being an exile in this city, what could I do better than marry the daughter of the King?
14994For she will cry to me,''Wilt thou kill me, my father?''
14994For that she is rightly come to the marriage of her daughter who can deny?
14994For the whole host will compel me to this deed?"
14994For we must take husbands to rule over us, and how shall we know whether they be good or bad?
14994For what cause did he slay her?
14994For what woman of the better sort would not do even as I?
14994For when Achilles was dead--""How sayest thou?
14994For who am I that I should transgress against a king?
14994For why, she said, should she struggle against fate which made her to be a slave?
14994From whom didst thou learn this?"
14994Had Death, thinkest thou, desire for my children rather than for his?
14994Had Pallas here a mother?
14994Hast thou not had all happiness, thus having lived in kingly power from youth to age?
14994Hast thou not heard the story of my sorrows?"
14994Hath the dead come back among the living?"
14994Have I not always done due reverence to thee and to my mother?
14994How died he?"
14994How have I wronged thee?
14994How many in number were the ships of the Greeks that they dared to meet the Persians in battle array?"
14994How then shall she not hate me when she seeth me at thy right hand?
14994I am ready to carry off this man with a strong arm; and how, being a cripple, shall he stand against us?
14994In some country of the Greeks, or among barbarians?"
14994Is he yet alive?"
14994Is his wife yet alive?"
14994Is it for them to rule, or for me?"
14994Is it not enough for thee to have kept Admetus from his doom?
14994Is it not said that even the Gods are persuaded by gifts, and that gold is mightier than ten thousand speeches?
14994Is the son of Peleus dead?"
14994Is there a man in Thessaly, nay in the whole land of Greece, that is such a lover of hospitality?
14994Knowest thou what manner of thing the life of a man is?
14994Knowest thou who it is to whom thou speakest?"
14994May I not rule my own household?"
14994Must I be as a slave among them that slew my father?
14994Nothing?
14994O my children, why do ye so regard me?
14994Of what have I defrauded thee?
14994One of thy lord''s children, or the old man his father?"
14994Only he said to himself,"O my dear mother, shall I ever see thee?
14994Or had this accursed father no care for my children, but only for the children of his brother?
14994Or was it for the sake of King Menelaüs his brother?
14994Say, why did ye not pursue her while she lived?"
14994Shall I put fire to the dwelling of the bride, or make my way by stealth into her chamber and slay her?
14994Shall the race of Sisyphus, shall Jason, laugh thee to scorn that art of the race of the Sun?"
14994Shall this land, if thou subduest it by the spear of the enemy, ever make alliance with thee?
14994Shall we stay and listen to her?"
14994Shall ye find elsewhere as fair a land, ye Gods, if ye suffer this to be laid waste, or streams as sweet?
14994Should I, for fear of thee, be found guilty against them?
14994So they went, but the Prince was sorely troubled in his mind and cried,"Now what shall I do?"
14994Speak I plainly?"
14994Tell me, my friends, in what land is this Athens of which they speak?"
14994Tell me, therefore, who is yet alive?
14994Tell me, what trouble hath come upon the land of Persia?"
14994Then King Agamemnon came forth from his tent, saying,"What meaneth this uproar and disputing that I hear?"
14994Then answered King Agamemnon,"What is thy quarrel with me?
14994Then said King Agamemnon,"But how shall I escape from this strait?
14994Then said Philoctetes,"Is this Ulysses that I see?
14994Then said the Furies,"How sayest thou?
14994Then said the King to Antigone,"Tell me in a word, didst thou know my decree?"
14994Then said the goddess,"And whither do ye drive him?"
14994Then she said--"Tell me now, dost thou purpose to slay thy daughter and mine?"
14994Then the Queen said,"Shall I say that this hath happened ill or well?
14994Then why dost thou weep?"
14994Think ye that I had flattered this man but that I thought to gain somewhat thereby?
14994Thinkest thou that Priam would not have walked on purple if perchance he had been the conqueror?"
14994Thinkest thou that thy father loveth it not?
14994Thinketh he that Justice is on his side?
14994Thinketh she to atone in such sort for the blood that she hath shed?
14994To her Orestes answered,"What meanest thou, lady, by lamenting in this fashion over us?
14994Was it not plainly declared?"
14994Well, and if they die, what then?
14994What city will receive me?
14994What hast thou done to me?
14994What hath she to do with Helen?
14994What ill do not I suffer at thy hand and the hand of thy partner?
14994What meanest thou?
14994What meanest thou?"
14994What need to say more?
14994What profit is there in them that sleep?
14994What sayest thou?
14994What sayest thou?
14994What should be done to thee if thou be found doing wrong to me?"
14994When did she slay them?"
14994When didst thou thus?"
14994Where shall I find her?"
14994Whither can I go, for thou and he are gone?
14994Who art thou that thou shouldest bewail her?
14994Who art thou, stranger, that sittest clasping this image?
14994Who hath dared to do this deed?"
14994Who is so nimble of foot that he can spring out of the net which they lay for his feet?
14994Who is this maiden?
14994Who knoweth it not?
14994Who more fit than I?
14994Who now shall stand against this boaster and fear not?"
14994Who then will hold up the torch for the bride?"
14994Who told thee this horrible thing that thou bringest against me?"
14994Whom wilt thou set against this man, O King?"
14994Whom, O King, will thou set against this man?"
14994Whose then could be these offerings on the tomb?"
14994Why blamest thou me if thou couldst not rule thy wife?
14994Why do ye laugh at me that shall never laugh again?
14994Why hast thou left me in my old age?"
14994Why linger ye, ye maids?
14994Why not?
14994Why should I slay my child, and work for myself sorrow and remorse without end that thou mayest have vengeance for thy wicked wife?"
14994Will he not be wroth, hearing that he hath been cheated of his wife?"
14994Wilt thou bury him when the King hath forbidden it?"
14994Wilt thou not take another in her stead?"
14994Wilt thou, if I save thee from this death, carry tidings of me to Argos to my friends, and bear a tablet from me to them?
14994Would she kill me also?"
14994Yet what nobler thing could I have done than to bury my own mother''s son?
14994and for whom must we make lamentation?"
14994he cried,"what shall I do, being bereaved of thee?"
14994how shall I dwell in thee?
14994or that it is an evil thing, yet profitable to me?
14994said he;"is this son yet to be born, or doth he live already?"
14994said the King,"if the ship labour in the sea, and the helmsman leave the helm and fly to the prow that he may pray before the image, doeth he well?"
14994said the elder,"or was he parted from you in a storm?"
14994that Zeus gave this command that this man should slay his mother?"
14994what God hath so smitten thee?
14994what friend shall give me protection?
14994where, then, is his tomb?"
14994who is dead?
14994who will receive me?
14994why lookest thou so solemn and full of care?
14994wilt thou always keep this widowed state?"
9776Or in what manner are these two objects to be distinguished?
9776Through the whole length of it:--and if"What is the circumstance which gives them a pleasing effect?"
9776Was you without a habitation? 9776 Why do they attack us by clandestine measures?
9776''Nay, or could you yourself, my Brutus, if the whole assembly was to leave you, as it once did Curio?"
9776--"And what concern need_ that_ give you,"replied Atticus,"if it meets the approbation of Brutus?"
9776--"And what is that?"
9776--"And what then is the merit,"said Brutus,"which you mean to ascribe to these provincial Orators?"
9776--"And what think you,"said I,"of Crassus, the son of that Licinia, who was adopted by Crassus in his will?"
9776--"But does there,"said Brutus,"or will there ever exist a man, who is furnished with all the united accomplishments you require?"
9776--"But is it possible to doubt,"cried Brutus,"whether this was a sensible quality, or a defect?
9776--"But what occasion is there,"said Brutus,"to quote the example of other speakers to support your assertion?
9776--"But why,"answered I,"would you expect that I would give you my opinion of men who are as well known to yourself as to me?"
9776--"Do you mean that Granius,"said Brutus,"of whom Lucilius has related such a number of stories?"
9776--"Do you really think, then,"said Atticus,"that Fannius was the author of that Oration?
9776--"From the sole pleasure of the ear:"--If"What the method of blending and intermingling them?"
9776--"In the different quantity of our syllables:"--If"From whence their_ origin_?"
9776--"In what manner?"
9776--"Mighty well,"said I;"and what think you of him you have heard so often?"
9776--"What do you mean,"said Brutus?
9776--"What do you refer to?"
9776--"What else can I think,"replied he,"but that you will soon have an Orator, who will very nearly resemble yourself?"
9776--"What fashionable delicacy do you mean?"
9776--"_Nobody denies it; and these are the men we imitate._"--"But how?
9776--''And what is that?''
9776--If"_ Where_ is their proper seat?"
9776After the usual salutations,--"Well, gentlemen,"said I,"how go the times?
9776Again, if a man of vivacity takes it into his head to write this way, what self- denial must he undergo, when bright points of wit occur to his fancy?
9776Be it allowed, then, that Lysias, that graceful and most polite of Speakers, was truly Attic: for who can deny it?
9776But after he has thus_ invented_ what is proper to be said, with what accuracy must he_ methodize_ it?
9776But as you are thoroughly acquainted with these, my Brutus, what occasion is there to explain and exemplify them?
9776But if untaught custom has been so ingenious in the formation of agreeable sounds, what may we not expect from the improvements of art and erudition?
9776But is it possible, then, to exert the powers of Eloquence without discovering them?
9776But it will here be enquired, What numbers should have the preference?
9776But shall we call him an Orator?
9776But should the former have begun his whining sing- song, after the manner of the Asiatics, who would have endured it?
9776But were not those, then, true Attic Speakers, we have just been mentioning?"
9776But what can be more delicate than our changing even the natural quantity of our syllables to humour the ear?
9776But what can be more insipid, more frivolous, or more puerile, than that very concinnity of expression which he actually acquired?"
9776But what need have I to say more?
9776But wherefore do I offer such a question, when your elegant letters have informed me, that this is the chief object of your request?
9776But wherefore do I say_ mine_?
9776But which of them does he mean to fix upon?
9776But who, when the use of corn has been discovered, would be so mad as to feed upon acorns?
9776But why do I speak of a collision of vowels?
9776But why must Lysias and Hyperides be so fondly courted, while Cato is entirely overlooked?
9776For what is so remote from severity of manners as gentleness and affability?
9776For what is the age of a single mortal, unless it is connected, by the aid of History, with the times of our ancestors?
9776For who has ever heard of an Argive, a Corinthian, or a Theban Orator at the times we are speaking of?
9776From the same capacity came those riper expressions,--"She was the spouse of her son- in- law, the step- mother of her own offspring?
9776Have we not seen that a whole age could scarcely furnish two Speakers who really excelled in their profession?
9776He goes on,"_ Cur clandestinis consiliis nos oppugnant?
9776How difficult will he find it to reject florid phrases, and pretty embellishments of style?
9776How then shall we strike out a general_ rule_ or_ model_, when there are several manners, and each of them has a certain perfection of its own?
9776I answer,--"To gratify the ear:"--If"_ When_?"
9776I may add, who made a warmer opposition to the rising fame of_ Isocrates_?
9776I own it, and I admire them for it: but why not allow a share of it to Cato?
9776I reply,"At all times:"--If"In what part of a sentence?"
9776If it be farther enquired,"For what purpose they are employed?"
9776If this is the case with them( and I can not think otherwise) will they reject the evidence of their own sensations?
9776In all cases, therefore, we can not be too careful in examining the_ how far_?
9776In this case, what necessity is there to await the sanction of a critic?
9776In what cause, however, can_ prudence_ be idle?
9776Let me further ask you, whether Demetrius Phalereus spoke in the Attic style?
9776Nay, to go no farther, what is become of the ancient poems of our own countrymen?"
9776Nay, when my own writings were in every body''s hands, with what face could I pretend that I had not studied?
9776Not to omit his_ Antiquities_, who will deny that these also are adorned with every flower, and with all the lustre of Eloquence?
9776Or could the Athenians improve their diet, and bodily food, and be incapable of cultivating their language?
9776Or even in the same cause, would you always express yourself in the same strain, and without any variety?
9776Or how alledge another argument in reply, which shall be still more plausible than that of his antagonist?
9776Or is an Orator really thought to be no Orator, because he disclaims the title?
9776Or is it likely that, in a great and noble art, the world will judge it a scandal to_ teach_ what it is the greatest honour to_ learn_?
9776Or is there any sort of causes which your genius would decline?
9776Or shall we content ourselves with the instructions which_ they_ have provided for us?
9776Or who more different from either of them, than Aeschines?
9776Or why should it not be a credit to_ teach_ what it is the highest honour to have_ learned_?
9776Or, lastly, which of the Greek Orators has copied the style of Thucydides?
9776Otherwise, how can he enlarge upon those which are most pertinent, and dwell upon such as more particularly affect his cause?
9776Pecunia superabat?
9776Scaevola?"
9776Shall we pronounce him the rival of Lysias, who was the most finished character of the kind?
9776Terence, therefore, has made use of both, as when he says,_ eho tu cognatum tuum non norâs_?
9776That Brutus, who concealed the most consummate abilities under the appearance of a natural defect of understanding?
9776That Brutus, who so readily discovered the meaning of the Oracle, which promised the supremacy to him who should first salute his mother?
9776To conclude this head; If it should be enquired,"What are the numbers to be used in prose?"
9776Was your pocket well provided?
9776What advantage, then, it will be said, has the skilful critic over the illiterate hearer?
9776What can be more difficult than to decide a number of suits, so as to be equally esteemed and beloved by the parties on both sides?
9776What can be more opposite?
9776What here can you find to censure?
9776What news have you brought?"
9776What, in the name of Heaven, can be intend by_ SPITATICAL?
9776Where that ardour, that eagerness, which extorts the most pathetic language even from men of the dullest capacities?
9776Where was that expression of resentment which is so natural to the injured?
9776Wherefore, then, should not_ I_ also exert my efforts?
9776Which of them, then, do you propose to imitate?
9776Which of them, therefore, is not to be met with in my seven Invectives against_ Verres_?
9776Who also was more nervous than Aristotle?
9776Who dethroned and banished a powerful monarch, the son of an illustrious sovereign?
9776Who had a richer style than Plato?
9776Who sweeter than Theophrastus?
9776Who, for instance, could be more unlike each other than Demosthenes and Lysias?
9776Who, then, can have patience with those dull and conceited humourists, who dare to oppose themselves to such venerable names as these?
9776Why, therefore, should we hesitate to follow her example, and to do our best to gratify the ear?
9776With what patience, then, would a Mysian or a Phrygian have been heard at Athens, when even Demosthenes himself was reproached as a nuisance?
9776Would_ you_, then, plead every cause in the same manner?
9776You, who are possessed of a critical knowledge of the art, what more will you require?
9776], though I was afterwards sensible it was too warm and extravagant?
9776]; such as the following line in the tragedy of_ Thyestes_,"_ Quemnam te esse dicam?
9776and afterwards,_ Stilphonem, inquam, noveras_?
9776and with what emphasis did he enlarge upon the necessity of supporting the common forms of law?
9776and yet who more venerable than yourself, or who more agreeable?
9776cur de perfugis nostris copias comparant contra nos_?"
9776have we not seen what has always been the wish of the defendant, and what the judgment of Hortensius, concerning yourself?
9776how often did he urge the authority of his father, who had always been an advocate for a strict adherence to the letter of a testament?
9776or in that of_ Cornelius_?
9776or in the cause of_ Habitus_?
9776or indeed in most of my Defences?
9776or rather, who would not have ordered him to be instantly torn from the Rostrum?
9776or than Demosthenes and Hyperides?
9776or which of our ancestors, when the choice of a pleader was left to his own option, did not immediately fix it either upon Crassus or Antonius?
9776qui in tardâ senectute_;"Whom shall I call thee?
9776replied he;"and what miraculous composition could that be?"
9776said Brutus;"and who was the Caius Rufius you are speaking of?"
9776what of the accuracy and preciseness of the old and established forms; of law?
9776when they are so very different, not only from each other, but from all the rest of their contemporaries?"
9776why do they collect forces against us from our own deserters?"
18466''And point to far Italia,--One alone, Celaeno, sings of famine foul and dread, A nameless prodigy, a plague unknown,-- What perils first to shun? 18466 ''E''en on his threshold, when the adulterer lay In wait for Asia''s conqueror?
18466''Real, then, real is thy face, and true Thy tidings? 18466 ''Still grieves he for his mother?
18466''What boots this idle passion? 18466 ''What,_ I_ to leave thee helpless, and to flee?
18466''Wilt thou not see, if yet thy sire survive, Worn out with age, amid the war''s alarms? 18466 Ah, whither,"cried AEneas,"wilt thou fly?
18466And harass peaceful nations? 18466 And rob their maidens of the love they vow, And lift, and burn and ravage as they list, Then plead for peace, with arms upon the prow?
18466Art thou, then, come at last? 18466 Ay, who had won, had Chance not interfered, And baffled me, like Salius?
18466But see, who, crowned with olive wreath, doth bring The sacred vessels? 18466 Cowards, why faint ye, Tuscans but in name?
18466Dear son, was life so tempting to the sire, To let thee face the foemen in my room, Whom I begot? 18466 Entellus, once our bravest, but in vain, Can''st_ thou_ sit tamely, with the field unfought, And see this braggart glory in his gain?
18466Fool,he cries,"Why rush to death, and dare a deed too great?
18466Gallants,he hails them from a mound afar,"What drove you hither by strange ways to steer?
18466Great Sire, was I so guilty in thy sight, To make thee deem such punishment my due? 18466 Heaven''s great inhabitants, what change hath brewed Rebellious thoughts, my purpose thus to mar?
18466I beaten? 18466 If thee, Tyre- born, a Libyan town detain, What grudge to Troy Ausonia''s land denies?
18466Me, me would Nisus from such deeds debar? 18466 O Iris, Heaven''s fair glory, who hath sent Thee hither?
18466O Turnus, cause of all our ills to- day, Why make the land these miseries endure? 18466 O maid,"he asks,"what crimes are theirs?
18466Oh, who hath tears to match our grief withal? 18466 Shalt thou, great Cato, unextolled remain?
18466Shalt_ thou_ go hence, and with the loved one''s spoils? 18466 Shame, will ye risk, Rutulians, for his host The life of one?
18466Son of a goddess, if none risks the fray, How long shall Dares guerdonless remain? 18466 Straight rose a joyous uproar; each in turn Ask what the walls that Phoebus hath designed?
18466Think''st thou the Stygian waters to explore Unburied, and the Furies''flood to see, And reach unbidden yon relentless shore? 18466 Thou-- is it thou, Euryalus, my own?
18466To die-- and unavenged? 18466 Was I the robber, who the war begun, Whose theft in arms two continents arrayed, When Europe clashed with Asia?
18466What am I doing? 18466 What can I do?
18466What dreams, dear Anna, fill me with alarms; What stranger guest is this? 18466 What first?
18466What gifts can match such valour? 18466 What madness this, poor women?"
18466What mischief, Latins, hath your minds misled, To shun our friendship in the hour of need, And rush to arms? 18466 What pride of birth possessed you, Earth and air Without my leave to mingle in affray, And raise such hubbub in my realm?
18466What, fly alone, and join their shouting crew? 18466 What, shall I see our houses wrapt in flame,-- Last wrong of all-- and coward- like, stand by, Nor make this arm put Drances''taunts to shame?
18466What, then,she sadly ponders,"shall I do?
18466What, thou-- wilt thou build Carthage?
18466Where shall I follow thee? 18466 Whither from thy course so wide?
18466Who knows not Troy, th''AEneian house of fame, The deeds and doers, and the war''s renown That fired the world? 18466 Whom then did I upbraid not, wild with woe, Of gods or men?
18466Why fail we on the threshold, faint with fears, And sick knees tremble ere the trumpets bray? 18466 Why now those ancient Lapithae recall, Ixion and Pirithous?
18466Why stay''st thou, Turnus? 18466 Would''st thou behold the Tarquins?
18466Wretch,cries Mezentius,"having robbed my son, Why scare me now?
18466_ Me_ dost thou fly? 18466 _ This_ for my robbed virginity?
18466''Panthus,''I cry,''how fares the fight?
18466Again Laurentum''s city shall I view?
18466Ah, why Did immortality the Sire bestow, And grudge a mortal''s privilege-- to die?
18466Ah, why So cruel?
18466Am I to send thee singly to thy fate?
18466And bring ye peace or war?"
18466And doubt we then to celebrate so far Our prowess, and shall fear Ausonian fields debar?
18466And if thy wife Creusa be alive, And young Ascanius?
18466And is it then so terrible to die?
18466And shall AEneas sail the uncertain main, Himself of safety certain, and his band?
18466And unoffending Harpies would ye chase Forth from their old, hereditary reign?
18466And whither art thou hurrying?
18466Art thou, then, that AEneas, whom of yore Venus on Simois''banks to old Anchises bore?
18466Awe- struck, AEneas would the cause enquire: What streams are yonder?
18466But Dido-- who can cheat a lover''s care?
18466But I, who walk the Queen of Heaven confessed, Jove''s sister- spouse, shall I forevermore With one poor tribe keep warring without rest?
18466But enough, ye say, Once to have fallen?
18466But thou, make answer, and in turn explain What brought thee, living, to these realms of shade?
18466But what power on high Hath willed thee, sent from the Olympian reign, Such toils to suffer, and such tasks to try?
18466But who are ye, pray answer?
18466But why the tale prolong?
18466But ye, my chosen, who with me will scale Yon wall, and storm their trembling camp?
18466By force of arms how dare His friend to rescue?
18466By heaven''s command, or wandering o''er the main, Com''st thou to view these shores, this sunless, sad domain?"
18466By the tempest tost, or blown At random, needful of what help and how Came ye to Latin shores the dark- blue deep to plough?
18466C."Is yours no pity, sluggard souls?
18466Cam''st thou, forsooth, to see thy wretched brother die?
18466Can I dare To face this fiend?
18466Can neither love, nor this my plighted hand, Nor dying Dido keep thee?
18466Cossus?
18466Could Pallas burn the Grecian fleet, and drown Their crews, for one man''s crime, Oileus''frenzied son?
18466Could e''er A parent speak of such a crime to me?
18466Could''st thou leave me here alone, Nor let thy mother bid a last good- bye?
18466Did I with lust the fatal strife sustain, And fan the feud, and lend the Dardans aid?
18466Did ever God such privilege attain?
18466Did ever crime of theirs the Dardans''meed require?
18466Do I care?
18466Dost thou thy faith remove, And cease to trust in Vulcan?
18466Dotard, why delay?
18466Doth the name Of sire or uncle make his young heart glow For deeds of valour and ancestral fame?''
18466Dream they here To find such Danaan striplings, weak as they Whom Hector baffled till the tenth long year?
18466Dreams he in his pride To end the war, and drive us from the land?
18466Feel''st not that more than mortal is his aid?
18466For me this fraud?
18466For this did I prepare That pyre, those flames and altars?
18466Forth springs AEneas, glorying in his prize, And plucks the glittering falchion from his thigh,"Where now is fierce Mezentius?
18466From the stern loud cries The pilot Palinurus:"Whence and why This cloudy rack that gathers o''er the skies?
18466Grant that I wished it, of these lordings who Would take me, humbled and a thing of scorn?
18466Grant that it had been, whom should Dido dread, What fear had death for me, self- destined to be dead?
18466Has filial love, Thrice welcome, braved the perils of the way?
18466Hath he taught Thine arm its vaunted cleverness for naught?
18466Have foes and fire found passage for the slain?
18466Have the sword And flames of Troy avenged me but in vain?
18466He, an alien, flout my sway?
18466Hector''s Andromache, art thou the mate Of Pyrrhus?''
18466Hermes cried,"And stay to beautify thy lady''s town, And dote on Tyrian realms, and disregard thine own?
18466His son?
18466How tost with perils do I greet thee?
18466I leave thee, cheated of my care, to fall, The daughter''s lover, and the father''s friend?
18466I the one, Who led the Dardan leman on his raid, To storm the chamber of the Spartan maid?
18466If dead, then where is Hector?''
18466If, maugre Turnus slain, I deign to welcome as a friend his foe, Why not, while Turnus lives, the needless strife forego?
18466Immortal I?
18466In number, strength and show Do we not match them?
18466Is Dido blind, if Trojans are untrue?
18466Is theirs no rest from leaguer-- not a day?
18466Is this the triumph?
18466Is this then all of what was once my child?
18466Is thy sacred faith forsworn?
18466Jove, shall he escape me?
18466Know''st thou not yet, O lost one and forlorn, Troy''s perjured race still shows Laomedon forsworn?
18466Let the bark break, with such a haven here What harm, if once upon the shore we stand?"
18466Liv''st thou, child of heavenly seed?
18466Loudly he shrills in anger to his train,"Who first with me will at the foemen-- who?
18466Moved he those eyes?
18466Must Cynthia waste her shafts on worthless knaves like thee?"
18466Must I wait all day?
18466Must captives be twice captured?
18466Must thou fly, When North- winds howl, and wintry waves are high?
18466Must we, poor souls, that Turnus may obtain A royal bride, like carrion strew the plain, Unwept, unburied?
18466Near lay the rock, the goal was close in sight, When Gyas, first o''er half a length of tide Shouts to his helmsman:"Whither to the right?
18466Nor care sweet sons, fair Venus''gifts to know?
18466O say, What manner of mankind is here?
18466O tell How can in heavenly minds such fierce resentment dwell?
18466O when, great Monarch, shall their toil be o''er?
18466O, what madness turns my brain?
18466O, whither wilt thou go?
18466Of Locrians, cast upon the Libyan plain?
18466Of what avail are temples, vows, and prayers, To quell a raging passion?
18466Once more Anchises bids us cross the main And seek Ortygia, and the god constrain By prayer to pardon and advise, what end Of evils to expect?
18466Or give-- for thine was all Juturna''s might-- Lost Turnus back his sword, and renovate the fight?
18466Or launch, and chase them with my Tyrian train Scarce torn from Tyre?
18466Or make we gods of but a wild desire?
18466Or poor Idomeneus, expelled his state?
18466Or thee, Serranus, scattering the seed?
18466Ours shalt thou be; but mark, and tell me now, What means this monster, for what use designed?
18466Peace ask ye for the dead, The War- God''s prey, whom folly doomed to bleed?
18466Pensive he stood, and with a rising tear,"What lands, Achates, on the earth, but know Our labours?
18466Poor Dido, hath thy folly found its prey?
18466Reared I this pyre, did I the gods invoke To leave thee thus companionless, to die?
18466Saw they not Troy, which Neptune reared of old, Sink down in ruin, as the flames uprolled?
18466Say whither wending?
18466Say, what bitter grief doth move Thy soul to rage untamed?
18466Seaward or Troyward-- whither shall we flee?"
18466See''st thou what sentinel Sits in the porch?
18466Shall Turnus run, and Latins see him fly?
18466Shall he face them there, And rush upon the foemen''s swords, to die, And welcome wounds that win a death so fair?
18466Shall he mock My queenship?
18466Shall the Trojans claim The realm, and bastards dare the Latin race to shame?
18466Shall this be, And Troy have blazed and Priam''s self been slain, And Trojan blood so oft have soaked the Dardan plain?
18466Shall vessels, fashioned by a mortal hand, The gift of immortality command?
18466Shalt thou, my son, expire, And I live on, my darling in the tomb, Saved by thy wounds, and living by thy doom?
18466Shrill and loud"Stand, who are ye in armour dight, and why?
18466So madly long they for the light?"
18466So swar''st thou; Father, say, why changed is thy decree?
18466Some sign Vouchsafe us, whom to follow?
18466Some warlike engine?
18466Still dwells thy War- God in a windy tongue, And flying feet, and knees all feeble and unstrung?
18466Such floods of passion can thy breast contain?
18466Take we the Danaans''bucklers; with a foe Who asks, if craft or courage guide the blow?
18466Tell me, why With ghastly wounds do I behold thee scarred?''
18466Then Jove, as from a saffron cloud above Looked Juno, pleased the doubtful strife to view,"When shall this end, sweet partner of my love?
18466Then Juno meekly:"Dearest, why delight With cruel words to vex me, sad with fear And sick at heart?
18466Then Mnestheus cries:"Friends, whither would ye flee?
18466Then Nisus:"Is it that the Gods inspire, Euryalus, this fever of the breast?
18466Then She with tears:"What if thy heart should give The pledge and promise, that thy lips disdain, And Turnus by thy warrant still should live?
18466Then Turnus, glorying in his fancied prize,"Where now, AEneas, from thy plighted bride?
18466Then Vulcan, mastered by immortal love, Answers his spouse,"Why, Goddess mine, invent Such far- fetched pleas?
18466Then brave Caicus from a bastion cried,"What dark mass, rolling towards us, have we here?
18466Then first with eager joy"O Goddess- born,"the bold Achates cries,"How now-- what purpose doth thy mind devise?
18466Then he in scorn:"Yea, Tiber''s waves beset With foreign ships-- I know it; wherefore feign For me such terrors?
18466Then spake AEneas, for with strange dismay He viewed the tumult,"Prithee, maiden, say What means this thronging to the river- side?
18466Then spake her son, who wields the starry sphere,"Mother, what would''st thou of the Fates demand?
18466Then, roused with rage, spake Juno:"Wherefore make My lips break silence and lay bare my woe?
18466Then,"Watchest thou, AEneas, child divine?
18466Think''st thou such grief concerns the shades below?
18466This the end?
18466This the return?
18466Thou, the late solace of my age?
18466Thus, thus dost thou thy plighted word regard, Our sceptred realms restore, our piety reward?"
18466Thy corpse defiled, Thy mangled limbs-- where are they?
18466Thy sceptre to a Dardan guest transferred?
18466To us what booteth thy Trinacrian name, Thy spoil- hung house, thy roof with prizes fraught?"
18466Unarmed, AEneas, with uncovered brow, Stretched out his hands, and shouted to his train:"Where rush ye, men?
18466V. Then Anna:"Sister, dearer than the day, Why thus in loneliness and endless woe Wilt thou for ever wear thy youth away?
18466War do ye bring, our cattle stol''n and slain?
18466Was it for this I roamed the land and sea?
18466Was it right A god with mortal weapons to pursue?
18466What God or man AEneas forced to take The sword, and make the Latin King his foe?
18466What God, what madness blinded you, that e''er Ye thought to venture to Italia''s land?
18466What Myrmidon, or who Of stern Ulysses''warriors can withhold His tears, to tell such things, as thou would''st have re- told?
18466What art thou seeking for these Teucrians here?
18466What care Or craft thy days can lengthen?
18466What clue Shall trace the mazes of this silvan snare, The tangled path unravelling?"
18466What end of standing?
18466What fate hereafter shall our steps attend?
18466What fear hath stirred them to provoke the war?
18466What flight Is this?
18466What godlike parents bore a child so bright?
18466What happy ages did thy birth delight?
18466What hinders for the homeless here to gain A home-- an Ilion for the one we lost?
18466What is AEneas''ignorance to me?
18466What joy hath aught beside, Thou, Turnus, dead?
18466What land Is this, to treat us in this barbarous way?
18466What make ye there?"
18466What more?
18466What most-- thy deeds or justice-- shall I prize?
18466What name, O maiden, shall I give to thee, For mortal never had thy voice or mien?
18466What noise of grief,"he cries,"comes rolling from the town?"
18466What of that band, who followed me, whom I-- Shame on me-- left a shameful death to rue?
18466What other choice was left, what other chance to try?
18466What other walls, what further town have we?
18466What pain Do they endure?
18466What pledge of safety more Doth Fortune give?
18466What praise can match thee?
18466What presence guards the gate?
18466What rest for toil- worn men, and whitherward to wend?
18466What sadder sight elsewhere Had Troy, now whelmed in utter wreck, to show?
18466What scheme is thine?
18466What schemes he now?
18466What seek the souls?
18466What shall he do?
18466What should he do?
18466What use of weapons, if ye fear to fight?
18466What wilt thou, chill in cloudland?
18466What worthy fate Hath caught thee, fallen from a spouse so high?
18466What, father Neptune, now, what mischief dost devise?"
18466What, fell they not on the Sigean plain?
18466What, hapless Dido, were thy feelings then?
18466What; swerving still?"
18466When shall this end?
18466Whence came I?
18466Whence comest thou again, Long- looked- for Hector?
18466Whence this impious jar?
18466Where am I?
18466Where can Earth for me Gape deep enough?
18466Where hurriest thou again?"
18466Where is his match?
18466Where is thy god, that Eryx?
18466Where is thy old affection?
18466Where that hand So oft to Turnus pledged, thy kinsman of the land?
18466Where then was Juno?
18466Where vanished is thy love?
18466Where, Euryalus, shall I follow thee?
18466Wherefore cheat Thy son so oft with images and lies?
18466Wherefore this delay?
18466Which way to wander, whither to return?
18466Whither am I borne?
18466Who dreamed that Teucrians should Hesperia gain?
18466Who parts the shades, what doom the difference can decide?"
18466Who planned the steed, and why?
18466Who tears thee hence?
18466Who then henceforth shall Juno''s power adore?
18466Who then her fanes frequent, her deity implore?"
18466Who was there The God, and whose the tyranny to blame For fraud like that?
18466Who would fail to tell of thee, Fabricius, potent in thy poverty?
18466Who, foul spawn of earth, shall call Me beaten?
18466Whom dost thou fly?
18466Whom first, dread maiden, did thy javelin quell?
18466Whom last?
18466Whom shuns he?
18466Whom to be buried?
18466Whose heart had will, whose cruel hand had might To wreak such punishment?
18466Why Theseus?
18466Why change and change?
18466Why delay?
18466Why fawn and feign?
18466Why keep aloof?
18466Why may I not clasp hands, and talk without disguise?"
18466Why seek for towns with battle in their womb, And beard a savage foeman in his lair?
18466Why separate, do they Turn back, while others sweep the leaden tide?
18466Why shifts my frenzied purpose to and fro?
18466Why should more words of mine the rising South delay?''
18466Why so fain Sweet husband, thus to sorrow and repine?
18466Why stand ye thus afraid?"
18466Why stay I?
18466Why stay your hand?
18466Why tell of wars from Tyre, A brother''s threats?
18466Why this sword and spear?
18466Why, Teucrians, do I keep you?
18466Will no one arm and chase them, or undock The ships?
18466With her right hand she grasped me from above, And thus with roseate lips:''O son, what mean These transports?
18466Would''st thou in death desert me, and pretend To scorn a sister''s care, and shun me as a friend?
18466Wrought we the wreck, when Ilion sank in gloom, We, or the hands that urged poor Trojans to their doom?
18466Your kin, and where your home?
18466_ Thus_ Ulysses do ye know?
18466and cloak such treason with a lie?
18466and how do I return, and who?
18466and lay your choicest low?
18466and to plant in vain These walls, to shield you from the foemen''s hand?
18466and whence and whither are ye bound?"
18466ay, and he Cooped thus within your ramparts, work such woe, Such deaths-- and unavenged?
18466could''st thou fancy it?
18466cries Volscens from the crowd,"And whither wend ye?"
18466do I behold thee?
18466do ye think the foe Gone, or that guileless are their gifts?
18466dost thou think to flee?
18466dropped he a single tear Sighed he with me, or spake a lover''s heart to cheer?
18466eating boards as well?"
18466he an outcast?
18466he chides her, as she flies,"Art thou, then, also cruel?
18466he exclaims,"What mean ye now?
18466hear thee move Sweet converse as of old?
18466how many in the dust lay low?
18466how shall thanks be paid?
18466like whom in face?
18466ne''er hear the name of Troy?
18466nevermore shall I behold with joy A Xanthus and a Simois again, Our Hector''s streams?
18466no shame For Troy''s old gods, and for your native land, And for the great AEneas, and his name?"
18466nor her mother, left forlorn, When, with the rising North- wind, o''er the sea Yon faithless pirate hath the maiden borne?
18466on what quest Come ye?
18466or religious vow?
18466or scion of his stock renowned?
18466or the Scipios, ye Twin thunderbolts of battle, and the bane Of Libya?
18466or why a feud so dire?
18466said AEneas,"can it be, That souls sublime, so happy and so free, Can yearn for fleshly tenements again?
18466shall Dido, made a jest To former lovers, stoop herself to sue, And beg the Nomad lords their oft- scorned vows renew?
18466shall I wait, and wait, till Turnus deign To take fresh heart, and tempt the war''s rough game, And, conquered, face his conqueror again?
18466shall a woman scatter you in flight?
18466shall tongue make utterance or refrain?
18466she cries,''what mad desire Arms thee for battle?
18466the Gracchi?
18466the cause of death?
18466thine this snare?
18466this the promise sworn?
18466thought''st thou''twas the chase?
18466till Pygmalion waste my state, Or on Iarbas''wheels, a captive queen, to wait?
18466to fly, whom I have doomed to fall; Think''st thou to baffle Turnus of his prize?"
18466was this thy secret?
18466what art To calm her frenzy, now hath vow or shrine?
18466what better hopes remain?
18466what clamour on the winds is blown?
18466what dire indignity hath marred The calmness of thy features?
18466what do I say?
18466what fate through dangers sore, What force to savage coasts compels thy flight?
18466what hope allures thine eyes, To loiter thus in Libya?
18466what hope the chief constrains To linger''mid a hostile race, nor heed Ausonia''s sons and the Lavinian plains?
18466what last?
18466what lot is thine?
18466what madness doth thy mind o''ertake?
18466what meed, to match such worth divine, Can good AEneas give thee?
18466what more For Turnus can a sister now?
18466what more have I to fear, What more to wait for, having known the worst?
18466what opening can he find To break the news, the infuriate Queen withstand?
18466what path to tread, To win deliverance from such toils?''
18466what spot on earth or sea Is left,''he cried,''to shield a wretch like me, Whom Dardans seek in punishment to kill, And Greeks disown?''
18466what still extremer woe Doth Fortune doom the living to bemoan?
18466what sudden discord now Is this?
18466what the crowd so great, That filled the river''s margin?
18466what to do?
18466what tower Still hold we?''
18466what wailings rend the skies?"
18466what woes remain?
18466what worse remains to bear?
18466whence so impious a request?
18466whence this sudden light so clear?
18466where Was cloud- sent Iris?
18466where to rest?
18466where,"he cries,"That fiery spirit?"
18466wherefore claim An old man''s privilege of empty woe?
18466wherefore would he spurn my prayer?
18466whither do ye run?
18466who Of all the gods hath torn thee from our side?
18466who and what ye are?
18466who listened or obeyed?
18466why and how This long delay?
18466why taunt and threaten?
18466why tell the nameless deeds of shame, The savage murders wrought from day to day?
18466wilt thou behold unstirred Such labours wasted, and thy hopes belied?
20732But surely,she said,"you got some men to bear your litter, for they are said to grow there?"
20732How can this be?
20732Thus fro''my patrial shore, O traitor, hurried to exile, Me on a lonely strand hast left, perfidious Theseus? 20732 Who may she be,"ye ask?
20732Who''s she?
20732''Qui possum?
20732''Qui?
20732''Sicine me patriis avectam, perfide, ab oris, Perfide, deserto liquisti in litore, Theseu?
20732(?)
20732**** I can address; no more shall I hear thee tell of thy doings, Say, shall I never again, brother all liefer than life, 10 Sight thee henceforth?
2073210 Eone nomine, imperator unice, Fuisti in ultima occidentis insula, Vt ista vostra defututa Mentula Ducenties comesset aut trecenties?
2073210 O Rufus, credited by me as a friend, wrongly and for naught,( wrongly?
2073210 Quem siqua attingit, non illam posse putemus Aegroti culum lingere carnificis?

2073210 To whom inscribe my dainty tome-- just out and with ashen pumice polished?
2073210 Why not steady thy thoughts and draw thee back from such purpose, Ceasing wretched to be maugrè the will of the Gods?
20732120 Or how borne by the ship to the yeasting shore- line of Dia Came she?
20732135 Naught, then, ever availed that mind of cruelest counsel Alter?
20732135 Nullane res potuit crudelis flectere mentis Consilium?
2073214 Tell us where haply dwell''st thou, speak outright, Be bold and risk it, trusting truth to light, Say do these milk- white girls thy steps detain?

2073215 Quis nunc te adibit?
2073215 What trifles wasted he, small heirlooms spent?

2073220 Why cherish this ill- wight?
2073220 Yet so thou mournedst not for a bed deserted of husband, As for a brother beloved wending on woefullest way?

207325 What, can the Province boast of thee as belle?
207325_ Damsels._ View ye the Youths, O Maids unwed?
207325_ Es inpudicus et vorax et aleo._ 5b Et ille nunc superbus et superfluens Perambulabit omnium cubilia Vt albulus columbus aut Adoneus?
2073270 Ego vitam agam sub altis Phrygiae columinibus, Vbi cerva silvicultrix, ubi aper nemorivagus?
2073270 I dwell on Ida''s verdant slopes mottled with snowy streaks, Where homes the forest- haunting doe, where roams the wildling boar?
20732Abero foro, palaestra, stadio et guminasiis?
20732Ah, parted by whirlpools Widest, yon truculent main where yields it power of passage?
20732Aid of my sire can I crave?
20732Alas, what may men do, I pray you, in whom put trust?
20732Alfene inmemor atque unanimis false sodalibus Iam te nil miseret, dure, tui dulcis amiculi?
20732Alfenus, unmemoried and unfaithful to thy comrades true, is there now no pity in thee, O hard of heart, for thine sweet loving friend?
20732An patris auxilium sperem?
20732An ut pervenias in ora vulgi?
20732And must I wander o''er these woods far from mine home?
20732And must my cronies quest for dinner invitations,[ lounging] where the three cross- roads meet?
20732And shall he now, superb and o''er replete, saunter o''er each one''s bed, as though he were a snow- plumed dove or an Adonis?
20732And thee the province declares to be lovely?
20732And thou, what solace givest thou, e''en the tiniest, the lightest, by thy words?
20732And why?
20732Anne bonum oblita''s facinus, quo regium adepta''s Coniugium, quo non fortius ausit alis?
20732Bare thee some lioness wild in Lybian wold?
20732Bore ye enough, in fine Of frost and famine with yon sot?
20732But what if they carp at that which in close- shut mind they long for?
20732By what sign?
20732Can I console my soul wi''the helpful love of a helpmate Who flies me with pliant oars, flies overbounding the sea- depths?
20732Can I quest help from my father, whom I deserted to follow a youth besprinkled with my brother''s blood?

20732Cui faveam potius?
20732Cui numquam domini limine abesse licet, Nec populum auscultare, sed heic suffixa tigillo Tantum operire soles aut aperire domum?
20732Cum puero bello praeconem qui videt esse, Quid credat, nisi se vendere discupere?
20732Cur?
20732Did not Tethys consent that thou should''st lead home her grandchild, and Oceanus eke, whose waters girdle the total globe?
20732Did not Thetis embrace thee, she most winsome of Nereids born?
20732Discern ye, O unwedded girls, the youths?
20732Dixerit hic aliquis: qui tu isthaec, ianua, nosti?
20732Do not the Gauls fear this man, do not the Britons quake?
20732Dost deem me capable of speaking ill of my life, she who is dearer to me than are both mine eyes?
20732Dost find this funny?
20732Dost not credit me?
20732Dost so prize my love?
20732Dost thou betray me now, and scruplest not to play me false now, dishonourable one?
20732Dost thou know the weight of crime he takes upon himself?
20732Dost thou think this a joke?
20732Dost wish to be famed, no matter in what way?
20732Ecqui scis quantum suscipiat sceleris?
20732Ego Maenas, ego mei pars, ego vir sterilis ero?
20732Ego nunc deum ministra et Cybeles famula ferar?

20732Estne novis nuptis odio venus?
20732Fear him the Gallias?
20732Fly Forum, fly Palestra, fly the Stadium, the Gymnase?
20732Folk might say here:"How knowest thou these things, O door?
20732For what have I done or what have I said that thou shouldst torment me so vilely with these poets?
20732For whatso shape is there, whose kind I have not worn?
20732For whither may I flee?
20732From country, goods, friends, and parents, must I be parted?
20732Gellius est tenuis: quid ni?
20732Gellius is lean: Why not?
20732Gellius is meagre: why not?
20732Hast thou cajoled me thus, and enfiring innermost vitals, Ravished the whole of our good own''d by wretchedest me?
20732Hast thou forgotten that noble deed, by which thou didst gain a regal wedlock, than which none dared other deeds bolder?
20732Hast thou forgotten the feat whose greatness won thee a royal Marriage-- a deed so prow, never a prower was dared?
20732He writes the epigram thus:_ Multus homo est, Naso, neque secum multus homo qui__ Descendit?
20732Here might somebody ask:--"How, Door, hast mastered such matter?
20732Hespere, qui caelo fertur crudelior ignis?

20732Iam me prodere, iam non dubitas fallere, perfide?
20732Idomeneosne petam montes?
20732Idomenéan mounts shall I scale?
20732In truth, whether his or mine-- what do I trouble?
20732In what way can I?
20732Is Venus abhorred by new- made brides?
20732Is it that lovers Never will tarry afar parted from person beloved?
20732Is my love but worth this?
20732Is''t that the vulgar mouth thy name by rote?
20732Leave the forum, the palaestra, the race- course, and gymnasium?
20732Lesbius est pulcher: quid ni?
20732Lesbius is beauty- man: why not?
20732Lesbius is handsome: why not so?
20732Loathsome is Venus to all new- paired?

20732Must I for ever roam these groves from house and home afar?
20732Nam quo me referam?

20732Quid est alid sinistra liberalitas?
20732Quid est, Catulle?
20732Quid facient crines, cum ferro talia cedant?
20732Quid facit is, Gelli, qui cum matre atque sorore Prurit et abiectis pervigilat tunicis?
20732Quid facit is, patruom qui non sinit esse maritum?
20732Quid faciunt hostes capta crudelius urbe?

20732Quis me uno vivit felicior, aut magis hac res Optandas vita dicere quis poterit?
20732Quis ullos homines beatiores 25 Vidit, quis Venerem auspicatiorem?
20732Quo signo?
20732Quod enim genus figuraest, ego non quod habuerim?
20732Quod mare conceptum spumantibus expuit undis?

20732Seest not the sheen Of links their splendent tresses fling?
20732Sella in curuli struma Nonius sedet, Per consulatum peierat Vatinius: Quid est, Catulle?

20732That thou may''st be in the people''s mouth?
20732Thee Thetis, fairest of maids Nereian, vouchsafed to marry?
20732Thee did Tethys empower to woo and we d with her grandchild; Nor less Oceanus, with water compassing th''Earth- globe?
20732Thee with my Lesbia durst it make compare?
20732Then why not happy as thou''rt hale?

7525whether I ought to die rather than become a slave?
7525whether evil can hurt the good man?
7525whether it be enough to will what is good?
7525whether life begins here or after death?
7525whether virtue is made greater by success?
7525why these never- ceasing wars?
7525why was her cult of abstract deities a worship of the letter which never rose to a spiritual idea?
7998''Twas shameful, was it not?
7998(_ Calling._) Who else for the boat?
7998A boy?
7998A funny sight, I own: but where''s the sense?
7998A man?
7998A slave, a mortal, act Alcmena''s son?
7998A slave?
7998Ah me, whence fall these evils on my head?
7998Air, Zeus''s chamber, or the Foot of Time?
7998Alas, poor witling, and ca n''t you see That for mighty thoughts and heroic aims, the words themselves must appropriate be?
7998An ass, no doubt: what made him do it though?
7998And blabbing them abroad?
7998And do what?
7998And do you dare look in my face, after that shameful deed?
7998And fought?
7998And how am I to cross?
7998And how did you manage to make them so grand, exalted, and brave with your wonderful verse?
7998And how do you make_ your_ prologues?
7998And how has this disturbed our Aeschylus?
7998And how, if I decide?
7998And tell me this: of all the roads you know Which is the quickest way to get to Hades?
7998And then?
7998And this beside his murdered father''s grave Orestes speaks?
7998And this to ME, thou chattery- babble- collector, Thou pauper- creating rags- and- patches- stitcher?
7998And this?
7998And to speak great Lycabettuses, pray, And massive blocks of Parnassian rocks, is_ that_ things honest and pure to say?
7998And what do_ you_ propose?
7998And what does Pluto now propose to do?

7998But Phaedras and Stheneboeas?
7998But Sophocles, How came not he to claim the tragic chair?
7998But have you not a shoal of little songsters, Tragedians by the myriad, who can chatter A furlong faster than Euripides?
7998But tell me, did you see the parricides And perjured folk he mentioned?
7998But were n''t_ you_ frightened at those dreadful threats And shoutings?
7998But were there none to side with Aeschylus?
7998But what of Xenocles?
7998But where are you going really?
7998But why these tears?
7998CORP. Two drachmas for the job?
7998Can any of you tell Where Pluto here may dwell, For we, sirs, are two strangers who were never here before?
7998Caused by a woman?
7998Claim it?
7998Come now, that comical joke?
7998Come then, if you''re so_ very_ brave a man, Will you be I, and take the hero''s club And lion''s skin, since you''re so monstrous plucky?

7998The good and useful?
7998Then does he mean that when his father fell By craft and violence at a woman''s hand, The god of craft was witnessing the deed?
7998Then why did n''t I sneeze?

7998What then?
7998What''s it all about?
7998What''s shameful, if the audience think not so?
7998What''s that you are saying?
7998What''s the matter?
7998What''s the next step?
7998What''s the right way to knock?
7998What, a new coinage of your own?

7998Would n''t I like to follow on, and try A little sport and dancing?
7998Would n''t I?
7998Wretch; would you leave me dead?
7998XAN, Frightened?
7998Yet wherefore need a lyre For songs like these?
7998You are really game to go?
7998You enemy of gods and men, what was_ your_ practice, pray?
7998You hear him, Aeschylus: why do n''t you speak?
7998You hear him?
7998You heard him?
7998You like that style?
7998You love it, do you?
7998You mean the rascals?

7998You see this foot?
7998You two?
7998You understand?

7998you''re not in earnest, just because I dressed you up, in fun, as Heracles?
9371Again what city ever received Plato''s or Aristotle''s laws, or Socrates''precepts?
9371Again what is it, I pray, to see old fellows and half blind to play with spectacles?
9371Again, she that has but once tried what it is, would she, do you think, make a second venture if it were not for my other companion, Oblivion?
9371Again, what greater thing do they wish in their whole lives than that they may please the man?
9371Again, what is more friendly than when two horses scrub one another?
9371And are they not most happy while they do these things?
9371And as to the court lords, what should I mention them?
9371And does he not plainly confess as much, Chapter 7,"The heart of the wise is where sadness is, but the heart of fools follows mirth"?
9371And first, if prudence depends upon experience, to whom is the honor of that name more proper?
9371And first, who knows not but a man''s infancy is the merriest part of life to himself, and most acceptable to others?
9371And how great a happiness is this, think you?
9371And not without cause, for when were the Grecian Demosthenes or Roman Cicero ever guilty of the like?
9371And now tell me, what higher letters of recommendation have they to men than this folly?
9371And now, having vindicated to myself the praise of fortitude and industry, what think you if I do the same by that of prudence?
9371And of scoffs, what not, have not the ancient comedies thrown on him?
9371And then for youth, which is in such reputation everywhere, how do all men favor it, study to advance it, and lend it their helping hand?
9371And then what pleasure they take to see a buck or the like unlaced?
9371And therefore, what is that life hereafter, after which these holy minds so pantingly breathe, like to be?
9371And though they have not the same judgment of sense as other bodies have, yet wherein has architecture gone beyond their building of houses?
9371And to what other purpose than that of pleasure?
9371And to what purpose should I run over any of the other gods''tricks when you know enough of Jupiter''s loose loves?
9371And truly, if they had the least proportion of sound judgment, what life were more unpleasant than theirs, or so much to be avoided?
9371And what does all this drive at, but that all mankind are fools-- nay, even the very best?
9371And what does that sacred book of Iliads contain but a kind of counter- scuffle between foolish kings and foolish people?
9371And what is more commendable than truth?
9371And what is the meaning of"I did it ignorantly"but that I did it out of folly, not malice?
9371And what matter is it to slight those few learned if yet they ever read them?
9371And what of"Therefore I received mercy"but that I had not obtained it had I not been made more allowable through the covert of folly?
9371And whence is it, but that their continual and restless thoughts insensibly prey upon their spirits and dry up their radical moisture?
9371And whence, I pray, all this grace?
9371And why all this?
9371And why, I pray but that, like a cunning fellow and one that was his craft''s master, he did nothing without the advice of Pallas?
9371And why, forsooth, but because those tents were covered with skins?
9371And why, good Jeremiah, would you not have a man glory in his wisdom?
9371And yet from whom can it more properly be said to come than from me?
9371And yet what more loving to man?
9371And yet what more trusty?
9371And yet, what is there that is either delightful or taking, nay rather what not the contrary, that a man does against the hair?
9371Be it as foolish as they would make it, so they confess it proper: and what can be more than that Folly be her own trumpet?
9371Besides why should I desire a temple when the whole world is my temple, and I''m deceived or''tis a goodly one?
9371Besides, what should I mention what these gods do when they are half drunk?
9371But Christ, interrupting them in their vanities, which otherwise were endless, will ask them,"Whence this new kind of Jews?
9371But to come to the purpose: I have given you my name, but what epithet shall I add?
9371But what if I show you that I am both the beginning and end of this so great good also?
9371But what of this when they give up and down their foolish insipid verses, and there wants not others that admire them as much?
9371But what?
9371But who are they that for no other reason but that they were weary of life have hastened their own fate?
9371But who the devil put that in your head?
9371But why am I so careful to no purpose that I thus run on to prove my matter by so many testimonies?
9371But why do I altogether spend my breath in speaking of mortals?
9371But why do I launch out into this ocean of superstitions?
9371But why do I thus staggeringly defend myself with one single instance?
9371But why should I be silent in a thing that is more true than truth itself?
9371But, O you gods,"shall I speak or hold my tongue?"
9371But, to return to my design, what power was it that drew those stony, oaken, and wild people into cities but flattery?
9371Can that be called life where you take away pleasure?
9371Do you like what I say?
9371For by what more proper name can so great a goddess as Folly be known to her disciples?
9371For first, what is more sweet or more precious than life?
9371For to what purpose is it to say anything of the common people, who without dispute are wholly mine?
9371For what benefit is beauty, the greatest blessing of heaven, if it be mixed with affectation?
9371For what difference between them, but that the one has more wrinkles and years upon his head than the other?
9371For what else is madness than for a man to be out of his wits?
9371For what injustice is it that when we allow every course of life its recreation, that study only should have none?
9371For what is it they do not permit them to do?
9371For what is more foolish than for a man to study nothing else than how to please himself?
9371For what is there at all done among men that is not full of folly, and that too from fools and to fools?
9371For what other is this?
9371For what ridiculous stuff is there which that stump of the fig tree Priapus does not afford them?
9371For who can set me out better than myself, unless perhaps I could be better known to another than to myself?
9371For who does not know that every good, the more diffusive it is, by so much the better it is?
9371For who does not know what a dearth there is of wise men, if yet any one be to be found?
9371For who is so faint whom their devices will not enliven?
9371For who would not shun and startle at such a man, as at some unnatural accident or spirit?
9371Go to then, do n''t you find among the several kinds of living creatures that they thrive best that understand no more than what Nature taught them?
9371If a man have a crooked, ill- favored wife, who yet in his eye may stand in competition with Venus, is it not the same as if she were truly beautiful?

9371Is there any of you so very a fool as to leave jewels and gold in the street?
9371Nay, and when a justly deserved gout has knotted their knuckles, to hire a caster, or one that may put the dice in the box for them?
9371Or Isocrates, that was so cowhearted that he dared never attempt it?
9371Or as Lycurgus his example of his two whelps?
9371Or as if any man, mistaking me for wisdom, could not at first sight convince himself by my face the true index of my mind?
9371Or beget pleasure in another that is troublesome to himself?
9371Or ever agree with another who is not at peace with himself?
9371Or his ridiculous emblem of pulling off a horse''s tail hair by hair?
9371Or of what authority will the censure of so few wise men be against so great a cloud of gainsayers?
9371Or otherwise, I beseech you, under how many notions do I tax myself?
9371Or to what purpose is it I should mind you of our professors of arts?
9371Or to what purpose laws, where there were no ill manners?
9371Or to what purpose, think you, should I describe myself when I am here present before you, and you behold me speaking?
9371Or what is it that their own very names are often counterfeit or borrowed from some books of the ancients?
9371Or what is that, when he attributes an upright mind without craft or malice to a fool, when a wise man the while thinks no man like himself?
9371Or what need was there to have said so much, as if my very looks were not sufficient to inform you who I am?

9371Why Venus ever in her prime, but because of her affinity with me?
9371Why do you give me no answer?

22456 ''Was it this, mine own? 22456 ''Was life''s hold on me so sweet, O my son, that I let him I bore receive the hostile stroke in my room? 22456 ''What guerdon shall I deem may be given you, O men, what recompense for these noble deeds? 22456 ''What now shall good Aeneas give thee, what, O poor boy, for this thy praise, for guerdon of a nature so noble? 22456 ''What shapes of crime are here? 22456 ''What strange madness is this?'' 22456 ''What terror, what utter cowardice hath fallen on your spirits, O never to be stung to shame, O slack alway? 22456 ''What yet shall be the end, O wife? 22456 ''Whither wanderest thou away? 22456 ''Who will be with me, my men, to be first on the foe? 22456 --''O father, must we think that any souls travel hence into upper air, and return again to bodily fetters? 22456 Achates first accosts Aeneas:''Goddess- born, what purpose now rises in thy spirit? 22456 Aeneas rushes up, drawing his sword from the scabbard, and thus above him:''Where now is gallant Mezentius and all his fierce spirit?'' 22456 Ah me, was I cause of thy death? 22456 Ah, and who is he apart, marked out with sprays of olive, offering sacrifice? 22456 Alas, what can he do? 22456 Alas, what shall he do? 22456 Am I, thy father, saved by these wounds of thine, and living by thy death? 22456 And Mnestheus:''Whither next, whither press you in flight? 22456 And Turnus pursuing and aiming as he ran, thus upbraids him in triumph:''Didst thou hope, madman, thou mightest escape our hands?'' 22456 And do we yet hesitate to give valour scope in deeds, or shrink in fear from setting foot on Ausonian land? 22456 And he:''Why seek to frighten me, fierce man, now my son is gone? 22456 And how should they let me, if I would? 22456 And then? 22456 And unfold the truth to this my question: wherefore have they reared this vast size of horse? 22456 Are we eating our tables too?_ cries Iülus jesting, and stops. 22456 Are we going to meet them? 22456 Art thou that Aeneas whom Venus the bountiful bore to Dardanian Anchises by the wave of Phrygian Simoïs? 22456 As she saw him glittering in arms and idly exultant:''Why,''she cries,''wanderest thou away? 22456 Believe you the foe is gone? 22456 But Aeneas presses on, brandishing his vast tree- like spear, and fiercely speaks thus:''What more delay is there[ 889- 924]now? 22456 But good Aeneas, his head bared, kept stretching his unarmed hand and calling loudly to his men:''Whither run you? 22456 But if so many oracles guided them, given by god and ghost, why may aught now reverse thine ordinance or write destiny anew? 22456 But to thee how did winds, how fates give passage? 22456 But what shall be the end? 22456 But when I assail a third spearshaft with a stronger effort, pulling with knees pressed against the sand; shall I speak or be silent? 22456 But who hath bidden thee descend from heaven to bear this sore travail? 22456 But who was to believe that Teucrians should come to Hesperian shores? 22456 But who, I pray, are you, or from what coasts come, or whither hold you your way?'' 22456 But why, unhappy, do I delay the Trojan arms? 22456 But you, my chosen, who of you makes ready to breach their palisade at the sword''s point, and join my attack on their fluttered camp? 22456 But, I think, my deity lies at last outwearied, or my hatred sleeps and is satisfied? 22456 By what means may he essay entrance? 22456 Careless, O winds, of my deity, dare you confound sky and earth, and raise so huge a coil? 22456 Caïcus raises a cry from the mound in front:''What mass of misty gloom, O citizens, is rolling hitherward? 22456 Comest thou driven on ocean wanderings, or by promptings from heaven? 22456 Could I not have riven his body in sunder and strewn it on the waves? 22456 Could Pallas lay the Argive fleet in ashes, and sink the Argives in the sea, for one man''s guilt, mad Oïlean Ajax? 22456 Could they be ensnared when taken? 22456 Could they perish on the Sigean[ 295- 326]plains? 22456 Couldst thou, the latest solace of mine age, leave me alone so cruelly? 22456 Deemest thou the ashes care for that, or the ghost within the tomb? 22456 Did the fires of Troy consume her people? 22456 Did these very hands build it, did my voice call on our father''s gods, that with thee lying thus I should be away as one without pity? 22456 Did we urge him to quit the camp or entrust his life to the winds? 22456 Didst thou disdain a sister''s company in death? 22456 Dost thou, Hector''s Andromache, keep bonds of marriage with Pyrrhus?
22456Even so she begins, and thus revolves with her heart alone:''See, what do I?
22456Fliest thou from me?
22456Fliest thou not hence headlong, while headlong flight is yet possible?
22456For what do I wait?
22456For what further outrage do I wait?
22456For what had counsel or chance yet to give?
22456For why do I conceal it?
22456From whom fliest thou?
22456From whom fliest thou?
22456Go,"he continues,"happy in thy son''s affection: why do I run on further, and delay the rising winds in talk?"
22456Hath any man or god constrained Aeneas to court war or make armed attack on King Latinus?
22456Hath he broken into tears, or had pity on his lover?
22456Have you no pity, no shame, cowards, for your unhappy country, for your ancient gods, for great Aeneas?''
22456He stopped and cried weeping,''What land is left, Achates, what tract on earth that is not full of our agony?
22456He yonder, seest thou?
22456Here are our brother Eryx''borders, and Acestes''welcome: who denies us to cast up walls and give our citizens a city?
22456How leavest thou me to die, O my guest?
22456How shall I begin my desolate moan?
22456How shall I trust Aeneas to deceitful breezes, and the placid treachery of sky that hath so often deceived me?''
22456I forbade Italy to join battle with the Teucrians; why this quarrel in face of my injunction?
22456If such glories kindle him in nowise, and he take no trouble for his own honour, does a father grudge his Ascanius the towers of Rome?
22456If thy Phoenician eyes are stayed on Carthage towers and thy Libyan city, what wrong is it, I pray, that we Trojans find our rest on Ausonian land?
22456Is Death all so bitter?
22456Is anger so fierce in celestial spirits?
22456Is it granted, O my son, to gaze on thy face and hear and answer in familiar tones?
22456Is it not thus the Phrygian herdsman wound his way to Lacedaemon, and carried Leda''s Helen to the Trojan towns?
22456Is it peace or arms you carry hither?''
22456Is it thus thou dost restore our throne?''
22456Is it we who would overthrow the tottering state of Phrygia?
22456Is this all of what thou wert that returns to me, O my son?
22456Is this his repayment for my maidenhood?
22456Is this the reward of goodness?
22456Knowest thou not the strength is another''s and the gods are changed?
22456Let us exchange shields, and accoutre ourselves in Grecian suits; whether craft or courage, who will ask of an enemy?
22456Lo, the deep shuts us in with vast sea barrier; even now land fails our flight; shall we make ocean or Troy our goal?''
22456Long they ran on in mutual change of talk; of what lifeless comrade spoke the soothsayer, of what body for burial?
22456Markest thou what sentry is seated in[ 575- 609]the doorway?
22456May hulls have the right of immortality that were fashioned by mortal hand?
22456Moved with marvel at the confused throng:''Say, O maiden,''cries Aeneas,''what means this flocking to the river?
22456Must I wait forsooth till Turnus please to stoop to combat, and choose again to face his conqueror?
22456Nisus cries:''Lend the gods this fervour to the soul, Euryalus?
22456Now so many woes are spent, and the same fortune still pursues them; Lord and King, what limit dost thou set to their agony?
22456O citizens?
22456Or will you even find rest here with me and share my kingdom?
22456Our love holds thee not, nor the hand thou once gavest, nor the bitter death that is left for Dido''s portion?
22456Palinurus, master of the fleet, cries from the high stern:''Alas, why have these heavy storm- clouds girt the sky?
22456Paphos is thine and Idalium, thine high Cythera; why meddlest thou with fierce spirits and a city big with war?
22456Plead you for peace to the lifeless bodies that the battle- lot hath slain?
22456See, is this his promise- keeping?''
22456Seest thou how the twin plumes straighten on his crest, and his father''s own emblazonment already marks him for upper air?
22456Shall I again make trial of mine old wooers that will scorn me?
22456Shall I have faith in this perilous thing?
22456Shall I look again on the camp or walls of Laurentum?
22456Shall I make mention of the realm of Neoptolemus, and Idomeneus''household gods overthrown?
22456Shall my hand not refute Drances''jeers?
22456Shall she see her spousal and her home, her parents and children, attended by a crowd of Trojan women and Phrygians to serve her?
22456Shall she verily see Sparta and her native Mycenae unscathed, and depart a queen and triumphant?
22456Shall thy righteousness first wake my wonder, or thy toils in war?
22456Shalt thou die, and by Diana''s weapons?''
22456Shalt thou without burial behold the Stygian waters and the awful river of the Furies?
22456She swoons away, and hardly at last speaks after long interval:"Comest thou then a real face, a real messenger to me, goddess- born?
22456Straightway[ 265- 299]he breaks in:''Layest thou now the foundations of tall Carthage, and buildest up a fair city in dalliance?
22456The destruction of their households, this was the one thing yet lacking; shall I suffer it?
22456Then Queen Juno, swift and passionate:''Why forcest thou me to break long silence and proclaim my hidden pain?
22456Then her lord speaks, enchained by Love the immortal:''Why these far- fetched pleas?
22456Then indeed Turnus, when he believed Aeneas turned and fled from him, and his spirit madly drank in the illusive hope:''Whither fliest thou, Aeneas?
22456Then shall I follow the Ilian fleets and the uttermost bidding of the Teucrians?
22456Then she thus addressed me, and with this speech allayed my distresses:"What help is there in this mad passion of grief, sweet my husband?
22456Then she thus[ 228- 261]accosts her amazed lord:''Wakest thou, seed of gods, Aeneas?
22456Thereto the Tyrrhenian, as he came to himself and gazing up drank the air of heaven:''Bitter foe, why these taunts and menaces of death?
22456This only was left in his strait, to kindle them to valour, now by entreaties, now by taunts:''Whither flee you, comrades?
22456This thou didst promise: why, O father, is thy decree reversed?
22456Thoughtest thou my feet, O father, could retire and abandon thee?
22456Thus Phoebus; and mingled outcries of great gladness uprose; all ask, what is that city?
22456Thus at last she opens out upon Aeneas:''And thou didst hope, traitor, to mask the crime, and slip away in silence from my land?
22456Thus he ended, and the soothsayer thus began:''Whence, O Palinurus, this fierce longing of thine?
22456To this Turnus, with eyes fixed on the terrible maiden:''O maiden flower of Italy, how may I essay to express, how to prove my gratitude?
22456To what god is power so great given?
22456To what is little Iülus and thy father, to what am I left who once was called thy wife?"
22456To whom Juno beseechingly:''Why, fair my lord, vexest thou one sick at heart and trembling at thy bitter words?
22456To whom Palinurus, scarcely lifting his eyes, returns:''Wouldst thou have me ignorant what the calm face of the brine means, and the waves at rest?
22456Troy blazed in fire?
22456Was it in my guidance the[ 92- 125]adulterous Dardanian broke into Sparta?
22456Was it this thy pyre, ah me, this thine altar fires meant?
22456Was it well that a deity should be sullied by a mortal''s wound?
22456Was it well, O God, that nations destined to everlasting peace should clash in so vast a shock?
22456Was my summons a snare?
22456Were it not better to have[ 59- 91]clung to the last ashes of their country, and the ground where once was Troy?
22456What art of mine can lengthen out thy day?
22456What do I talk?
22456What do I?
22456What god, O Muses, guarded the Trojans from the rage of the fire?
22456What god, what madness, hath driven you to Italy?
22456What god, what potent cruelty of ours, hath driven him on his hurt?
22456What guest unknown is this who hath entered our dwelling?
22456What happy ages bore thee?
22456What hath availed me Syrtes or Scylla, what desolate Charybdis?
22456What indignity hath marred thy serene visage?
22456What is this strife that so spreads and swells?
22456What is your kin, whence your habitation?
22456What man or god did I spare in frantic reproaches?
22456What of that array of men who followed me to arms?
22456What race of men, what land how barbarous soever, allows such a custom for its own?
22456What shall he do?
22456What terror hath bidden one or another run after arms and tempt the sword?
22456What then were thy thoughts, O Dido, as thou sawest it?
22456Whence is this sudden sheen of weather?
22456Where is Juno in this, or Iris sped down the clouds?
22456Where is thy plighted faith?
22456Where now prithee is divine Eryx, thy master of fruitless fame?
22456Where thine ancient care for thy people, and the hand Turnus thy kinsman hath so often clasped?
22456Where, where shall I begin?
22456Whither am I borne?
22456Whither does he run?
22456Whither shall I follow?
22456Whither whirl you me all breathless, O Fabii?
22456Whither, O goddess, is thy trust in me gone?
22456Who can be ignorant of the race of Aeneas''people, who of Troy town and her men and deeds, or of the great war''s consuming fire?
22456Who may unfold in speech that night''s horror and death- agony, or measure its woes in weeping?
22456Who might leave thee, lordly Cato, or thee, Cossus, to silence?
22456Whom first, whom last, fierce maiden, does thy dart strike down?
22456Whom follow[ 88- 121]we?
22456Why again and again hurlest thou these unhappy citizens on peril so evident, O source and spring of Latium''s woes?
22456Why do I linger?
22456Why does a shudder seize our limbs before the trumpet sound?
22456Why fall I away again and again?
22456Why hesitate?
22456Why is it forbidden to clasp hand in hand, to hear and utter true speech?''
22456Why linger?
22456Why mockest thou thy son so often in feigned likeness?
22456Why ravest thou?
22456Why should I recall the fleets burned on the coast of Eryx?
22456Why should I relate the horrible murders, the savage deeds of the monarch?
22456Why speak of the war gathering from Tyre, and thy brother''s menaces?
22456Why tell of the Lapithae, of Ixion and Pirithoüs?
22456Why wear we steel?
22456Why, were thy quest not of alien fields and unknown dwellings, did thine ancient Troy remain, should Troy be sought in voyages over tossing seas?
22456Will they not issue in armed pursuit from all the city, and some launch ships from the dockyards?
22456Will thy bravery ever be in that windy tongue and those timorous feet of thine?
22456Wilt thou never then let our leaguer be raised?
22456Wilt thou see also the Tarquin kings, and the haughty soul of Brutus the Avenger, and the fasces regained?
22456With what device or in what hope hangest thou chill in cloudland?
22456Yet hath the child affection for his lost mother?
22456[ 369- 400]Hath our weeping cost him a sigh, or a lowered glance?
22456[ 93- 126]Thus her son in answer, who wheels the starry worlds:''O mother, whither callest thou fate?
22456after such an husband, what fate receives thy fall?
22456ah hapless race, for what destruction does Fortune hold thee back?
22456and Fabricius potent in poverty, or[ 844- 875]thee, Serranus, sowing in the furrow?
22456and Priam have fallen under the sword?
22456and because fate forbids me?
22456and fell so unnatural words from a parent''s lips?
22456and hast thou no compassion on[ 361- 392]thy daughter and on thyself?
22456and may Aeneas traverse perils secure in insecurity?
22456and slain with the sword his comrades and his dear Ascanius, and served him for the banquet at his father''s table?
22456and stoop to sue for a Numidian marriage among those whom already over and over I have disdained for husbands?
22456are we unequal in numbers or bravery?
22456art thou ignorant, ah me, even in ruin, and knowest not yet the forsworn race of Laomedon?
22456because it is good to think they were once raised up by my[ 539- 570]succour, or the grace of mine old kindness is fresh in their remembrance?
22456by what passage hurl the imprisoned Trojans from the rampart and fling them on the plain?
22456can I contend with this ominous thing?
22456cries Aeneas;''whither so fast away?
22456declare, O maiden; or what the punishment that pursues them, and all this upsurging wail?''
22456for what are these idle weapons in our hands?
22456for what do I, or what fortune yet gives promise of safety?
22456from beneath the mound is heard a pitiable moan, and a voice is uttered to my ears:"Woe''s me, why rendest thou me, Aeneas?
22456from what borders comest thou, Hector our desire?
22456he cried,"what land now, what seas may receive me?
22456how his Trojans?
22456how long is it seemly to keep me?
22456how may vows or shrines help her madness?
22456how venture to smooth the tale to the frenzied queen?
22456how, that they choose their brides and tear plighted bosom from bosom?
22456if I am ready to take them into alliance after Turnus''destruction, why do I not rather bar the strife while he lives?
22456is he roused to the valour of old and the spirit of manhood by his father Aeneas, by his uncle Hector?"
22456is it this I have followed by land and sea?
22456is it thus we know Ulysses?
22456is this my strong assurance?
22456lingerest thou?
22456livest thou?
22456lord Neptune, what wilt thou?''
22456no compassion on her mother, whom with the first northern wind the treacherous rover will abandon, steering to sea with his maiden prize?
22456nor does it cross thy mind whose are these fields about thy dwelling?
22456nor hearest the breezes blowing fair?
22456nor when sent into such danger was one last word of thee allowed thine unhappy mother?
22456of what are the souls so fain?
22456on what ground have I left thee?
22456or did I send the shafts of passion that kindled war?
22456or do we shudder vainly when our father hurls the thunderbolt, and do blind fires in the clouds and idle rumblings appal our soul?
22456or does fatal passion become a proper god to each?
22456or he who brought the Achaeans down on the hapless Trojans?
22456or how may earth ever yawn for me deep enough?
22456or if sweet light is fled, ah, where is Hector?"
22456or in what guidance may I overcome these sore labours?"
22456or of the Locrians who dwell on the Libyan beach?
22456or plunge forth girt with all my Tyrian train?
22456or shall he rush on his doom amid their swords, and find in their wounds a speedy and glorious death?
22456or take the odious woman on their haughty ships?
22456or that the lost sword-- for what without thee could Juturna avail?--should be restored to Turnus and swell the force of the vanquished?
22456or think you any Grecian gift is free of treachery?
22456or what crueller sight met me in our city''s overthrow?
22456or what difference makes these retire from the banks, those go with sweeping oars over the leaden waterways?''
22456or what dost thou seek for these of thine?
22456or what fortune keeps thee from rest, that thou shouldst draw nigh these sad sunless dwellings, this disordered land?''
22456or what is the last doom that yet awaits my misery?
22456or what is this cry that fleets so loud from the distant town?''
22456or what land now holds thy mangled corpse, thy body torn limb from limb?
22456or what more is there if I break not under this?
22456or what their aim?
22456or what worthier fortune revisits thee?
22456or where am I?
22456or where shall I follow, again unwinding all the entanglement of the treacherous woodland way?''
22456or whither do you steer?
22456or whither dost thou bid us go, where fix our seat?
22456or whither dost thou run?
22456or whither hold you your way?''
22456or whither is thy care for us fled?
22456or who withholds thee from our embrace?''
22456or whom might Cassandra then move by prophecy?
22456or whose divinity landed thee all unwitting on our coasts?
22456or why all this contest now?
22456or why discern I these wounds?"
22456or why, Turnus, dost thou yet shrink away?
22456others plunder and harry the burning citadel; are you but now on your march from the tall ships?"
22456shall I accompany the triumphant sailors, a lonely fugitive?
22456shall I nowhere see a Xanthus and a Simoïs, the rivers of Hector?
22456shall I send thee alone into so great perils?
22456shall I turn my back, and this land see Turnus a fugitive?
22456shall an alien make mock of our realm?
22456shall there never be a Trojan town to tell of?
22456shall we set one life in the breach for so many such as these?
22456she cries,''shall he go?
22456sister of Phoebus perchance, or one of the nymphs''blood?
22456so hardly severed from Sidon city, shall I again drive them seaward, and bid them spread their sails to the tempest?
22456son, or other of his children''s princely race?
22456that Trojans subjugate and plunder fields not their own?
22456that their gestures plead for peace, and their ships are lined with arms?
22456the shore of Dardania so often soaked with blood?
22456thou wilt see thy son cruelly slain; is this our triumphal return awaited?
22456till Pygmalion overthrow his sister''s city, or Gaetulian Iarbas lead me to captivity?
22456to give the issue of war and the charge of his ramparts to a child?
22456to stir the loyalty of Tyrrhenia or throw peaceful nations into tumult?
22456was it that thou mightest see thy hapless brother cruelly slain?
22456we?
22456what agony shakes the city?
22456what flight is this, or in what guise do I return?
22456what good is his gift of life for ever?
22456what height of madness hath seized thy mind?
22456what mad change is on my purpose?
22456what madness bends my purpose?
22456what mighty parents gave thy virtue birth?
22456what of the boy Ascanius?
22456what other walls, what farther city have you yet?
22456what prologue shall he find?
22456what propitiation, or what engine of war is this?"
22456what remains at the last?
22456what shape guards the threshold?
22456what stronghold are we to occupy?"
22456what the cause or whereof the need that hath borne you over all these blue waterways to the Ausonian shore?
22456what violence lands thee on this monstrous coast?
22456whence came I?
22456where thy renown over all Sicily, and those spoils hanging in thine house?''
22456whether, torn by fate from her unhappy husband, she stood still, or did she mistake the way, or sink down outwearied?
22456whither calls Phoebus our wandering, and bids us return?
22456who is claimed of Apollo?
22456who is their counsellor?
22456who made Europe and Asia bristle up in arms, and whose theft shattered the alliance?
22456who repelled the fierce flame from their ships?
22456who the Gracchan family, or these two sons of the Scipios, a double thunderbolt of war, Libya''s bale?
22456who was allowed to use thee thus?
22456whom did I fear[ 604- 635]with my death upon me?
22456why have I forfeited a mortal''s lot?
22456why on the march, or how are you in arms?
22456why stand you?''
22456why the king of storms, and the raging winds roused from Aeolia, or Iris driven down the clouds?
22456why this their strange sad longing for the light?''
22456will aught of mine be sweet to me without thee, my brother?
22456with what device or in what hope loiters he among a hostile race, and casts not a glance on his Ausonian children and the fields of Lavinium?
22456with what force, what arms dare his rescue?
29358Ah, whither now? 29358 But who is this, the olive- crowned, that beareth in his hand The holy things?
29358How may my help, O Turnus, now beside my brother stand? 29358 O Father, may we think it then, that souls may get them hence To upper air and take once more their bodies''hinderance?
29358O twice- caught Phrygians, shames you nought thus twice amid the wars To lie in bonds, and stretch out walls before the march of Mars? 29358 O what new madness then is this?
29358To Teucrian outcasts shall our maid, Lavinia, wedded be? 29358 Who will be first with me, O youths, play with the foe to hold?
29358''And didst thou hope, O father, then, that thou being left behind, My foot would fare?
29358''Panthus, how fares it at the worst?
29358--But out!--why should a hapless man thus stay the Teucrian swords?
29358--What words are these, or where am I?
29358120 Yea, Pollux, dying turn for turn, his brother borrowed well, And went and came the road full oft-- Of Theseus shall I tell?
29358270 What dost thou?
29358300 Against these Teucrians sea and sky have spent their strength for nought: Was Syrtes aught, or Scylla aught, or huge Charybdis aught?
29358360 Nor of the mother, whom that man forsworn shall leave behind, Bearing the maiden o''er the sea with the first northern wind?
29358370--Ah, is aught better now than aught, when Juno utter great, Yea and the Father on all this with evil eyen wait?
29358530--But tell me, thou, what tidings new have brought thee here alive?
29358560 What torments bear they?
29358570 And shall he, conquered, take his ease to fight me o''er and o''er?
29358580 Shall Priam so be slain with sword; shall Troy so blaze aloft; Shall the sea- beach the Dardan blood have sweat so oft and oft For this?
29358590 And shall a very stranger mock the lordship I have won?
29358610 To whom spake Juno, meek of mood:"And why, O fairest lord, Dost thou so vex me sad at heart, fearing thy heavy word?
29358620 Why from the walls now goeth up this cry and noise afar?"
29358671 What shall betide the fellowship that followed me to war, Whom I have left?
2935870 To trust the Tuscan faith, and stir the peaceful folk to fight?
29358720 How can such mad desire be to win the worldly day?"
29358740"Where rushest thou?"
29358779 Then Mnestheus cries:"And whither now, and whither will ye flee?
29358810"Ah, whither rushest thou to die, and darest things o''ergreat?
29358840 Great Cato, can I leave thee then untold?
29358Ah, shall I see Laurentum''s walls, or see my camp once more?
29358Ah, what to do?
29358Ah, what to do?
29358Ah, what to do?
29358Ah, whom to follow?
29358Am I undying?
29358And Pallas, might not she Burn up the Argive fleet and sink the Argives in the sea 40 For Oileus''only fault and fury that he wrought?
29358And art thou that Æneas then, whom holy Venus bore Unto Anchises, Dardan lord, by Phrygian Simoïs''wave?
29358And hath no eyes Ausonian sons, Lavinian land to see?
29358And now-- the one shame wanting yet-- shall I stand deedless by Their houses''wrack, nor let my sword cast back that Drances''lie?
29358And seest thou not how round about the peril gathered is?
29358And shall I mine Æneas trust to lying breeze forsooth, 850 I, fool of peaceful heaven and sea so many times of old?"
29358And shall I send thee unto deeds so perilous alone?
29358And shall Æneas well assured stray every peril through?
29358And where is he, thy master then, that God, That Eryx, told of oft in vain?
29358And whither wend ye on your ways by road untried before?
29358And wilt thou see the Tarquin kings and Brutus''lofty heart, And fasces brought aback again by his avenging part?
29358And wouldst thou have me welter through such woeful tide of pain?
29358And, witless, hear''st not Zephyr blow with gentle, happy wind?
29358Answered her son, that swayeth still the stars that rule the earth:"O mother, whither call''st thou Fate?
29358Are these Ulysses''shifts?
29358Built I with hands, on Father- Gods with crying did I cry 680 To be away, a cruel heart, from thee laid down to die?
29358But Palinure with scarce- raised eyes e''en such an answer gave:"To gentle countenance of sea and quiet of the wave Deem''st thou me dull?
29358But ah, for death of such an one is Dian''s arrow due?"
29358But doubtful, say ye, were the fate of battle?
29358But if I would, who giveth leave, or takes on scornful keel 540 The hated thing?
29358But these your ships, what counsel or what lack Hath borne them to Ausonian strand o''er all the blue sea''s back?
29358But what shall be the end hereof?
29358But whither waver I so oft?
29358But who believed that Teucrian folk on any day might come Unto Hesperia''s shores?
29358But who may hoodwink loving eyes?
29358But whose will thee hath sent From high Olympus''house to bear such troubles, and so great?
29358But ye, my chosen, who is dight with me to break the wall, That we upon their quaking camp with point and edge may fall?
29358Deem ye that Danaan gifts May ever lack due share of guile?
29358Deem ye the foe hath fared away?
29358Deem''st thou dead ash or buried ghosts have heed of such- like things?
29358Did I set weapons in his hand, breed lust to breed debate?
29358Did I the Dardan lecher lead, who Sparta''s jewel reft?
29358Do him Æneas, Hector gone, father and uncle, stir, To valour of the ancient days, and great hearts''glorious gain?''
29358Doth Hector''s own Andromache yet serve in Pyrrhus''bed?''
29358Fabii, where drive ye me outworn?
29358Fabricius, poor and strong?
29358Father Anchises seeth and saith:''New land, and bear''st thou war?
29358Father, doth the counsel shift in thee?
29358Feel''st not another might than man''s, and Heaven upon his part?
29358For did he sigh the while I wept?
29358For justice shall I praise thee most, or battle''s mastery?
29358For what do I?
29358From us, your friends, why must ye flee away?
29358Had ye no might to wend as slaves?
29358Hath any fortune worthy thee come back again at last?
29358Hath he been vanquished unto tears, or pitied her that loved?
29358He brake all right, slew Polydore, and all the gold he got Perforce: O thou gold- hunger cursed, and whither driv''st thou not The hearts of men?
29358How many bodies of the slain laidst thou upon the field?
29358How may I by early perils fare?
29358How may I harden me''gainst this?
29358If Carthage braveries And lovely look of Libyan walls hold fast thy Tyrian eyes, Why wilt thou grudge the Teucrian men Ausonian dwelling- place?
29358If I am ready, Turnus dead, peace with these men to bind, Shall I not rather while thou liv''st cast all the war away?
29358Is death, then, such a misery?
29358Is it blind strayings o''er the sea that hither doth thee drive, Or bidding of the Gods?
29358Is this the coming back again?
29358Is this the good man''s guerdon then?
29358Lo, here is Eryx''brother- land; Acestes is our host; 630 What banneth us to found our walls and lawful cities gain?
29358My early glory.--Guest, to whom leav''st thou thy dying friend?
29358Nay, where is gone thine hallowed faith, thy kinsomeness of yore?
29358No less unto the wavy sea Menoetes, fearing hidden rocks, still turns away the bow: Gyas would shout him back again:"Menoetes, whither now?
29358Now Nisus saith:"Doth very God so set the heart on fire, Euryalus, or doth each man make God of his desire?
29358Now why the war that I forbade?
29358O Father, hast thou nought of ruth of her, forsooth, and thee?
29358O Father, is our dread of nothing worth When thou art thundering?
29358O Jupiter, was this thy will, that nations doomed to live In peace hereafter, on that day in such a broil should strive?
29358O children of Laomedon, the war then will ye gain?
29358O evil Love, where wilt thou not drive on a mortal breast?
29358O son, to me bringest thou back no more 490 Than this?
29358Of ship- host burnt on Eryx shore why should I tell the tale?
29358On whom of men, on whom of Gods, then laid I not the guilt?
29358Or choose them sons- in- law, or brides from mothers''bosoms tear?
29358Or doing what may I have might such toil to overbear?''
29358Or great Alcides?
29358Or house of Gracchus?
29358Or of the king of wind and storm, or wild and windy crowd Æolia bred, or Iris sent adown the space of cloud?
29358Or shall he cast himself amid the swords to die, And hasten down the way of wounds to lovely death anigh?
29358Or thee, Serranus, casting seed adown the furrows long?
29358Or what of Gods hath borne thee on unwitting to our shore?
29358Or, holding peace within their hands, lade ships with weapon- gear?
29358Our love, it hath not held thee back?
29358Paphus thou hast, Idalium, and high Cythera fair, Then why with cities big with war and hearts of warriors deal?
29358Phoebus''sister?
29358Right to give Turnus-- but for thee how was Juturna strong?-- The sword he lost?
29358Say, Muse, what God from Teucrian folk such sore destruction turned?
29358Shall I bemocked my early lovers try, And go Numidian wedlock now on bended knee to buy: I, who so often scorned to take their bridal- bearing hands?
29358Shall I give back, and shall this land see craven Turnus fled?
29358Shall I see never more Xanthus or Simoïs, like the streams where Hector dwelt of yore?
29358Shall fear forsooth forbid us rest in that Ausonian land?
29358Shall keels of mortal fashioning gain immortality?
29358Shall no walls more be called of Troy?
29358Shall this be right?
29358So much he spake, and went his way to meet the foeman''s shaft; But spake the other:"Bitter wretch, who took''st away my son, Why fright me now?
29358So wretchedly I rush to arms with all intent to die; For what availeth wisdom now, what hope in fate may lie?
29358The Fates forbid it me forsooth?
29358The sackless Harpies will ye drive from their own land away?
29358Thee, who hast wooed me for thy sire, my daughter for thy bride?
29358Then Turnus answered, with his eyes fixed on the awful maid:"O glory of Italian land, how shall the thanks be paid Worthy thy part?
29358Then brake the God on him:"Forsooth, tall Carthage wilt thou found, O lover, and a city fair raise up from out the ground?
29358Then called the helmsman Palinure from lofty deck on high:"Ah, wherefore doth such cloud of storm gird all the heavens about?
29358Then cries Iapis:"Loiter ye?
29358Then fearfully Æneas stayed, and drank the tumult in:"O tell me, Maiden, what is there?
29358Then spake Queen Juno, heavy wroth:"Why driv''st thou me to part My deep- set silence, and lay bare with words my grief of heart?
29358Then spake the Father, overcome by Love that ne''er hath waned:"Why fish thy reasons from the deep?
29358There in the open house they sit, and he himself begins:"O Dwellers in the House of Heaven, why backward thuswise wins Your purpose?
29358They break in on me, and he their fellow is, Ulysses, preacher of all guilt.--O Gods, will ye not pay The Greeks for all?
29358Thine hand that oft to Turnus''hand, thy kinsman, promise bore?
29358Thy mastering will I know it holdeth good, O Jove the great!--was this the gift thou gav''st for maidenhood?
29358To trust his walls and utmost point of war unto a boy?
29358Unto whom giv''st thou Iulus''life, Thy father''s, yea and mine withal, that once was called thy wife?''
29358Unto whom the Tuscan spake, when he Got sense again, and breathed the air, and o''er him heaven did see:"O bitter foe, why chidest thou?
29358Was it thy very death I wrought?
29358Was it to see thy brother''s end and most unhappy fate?
29358Was there no dead man''s place for you on that Sigean plain?
29358Was there no time for one last word amid my misery?
29358We!--or the one who thwart the Greeks the wretched Trojans dashed?
29358What God hath driven him to lie, what hardness of my might?
29358What God sent you to Italy?
29358What do I?
29358What doth he?
29358What earth hides thy body, mangled sore, And perished limbs?
29358What end of toil then giv''st thou, King of heaven?
29358What folk and from what home are ye?
29358What force to dare, what stroke to snatch away The youth?
29358What gift for Gods; what gin of war is he?''
29358What hath fouled in such an evil wise Thy cheerful face?
29358What hath yoked thy life to this wild shore?
29358What heal is left in aught that may befall?
29358What if a peace that shall endure, and wedlock surely bound, 99 We fashion?
29358What images of sin?
29358What joyful ages brought Thy days to birth?
29358What madness changeth me?
29358What man might hear it told Of Dolopes, or Myrmidons, or hard Ulysses''band, And keep the tears back?
29358What men among men are ye then?
29358What might have Trojan men to sin?
29358What of the boy Ascanius?
29358What one of all the Gods or men Æneas drave to go On warring ways, or bear himself as King Latinus''foe?
29358What other walls, what other town have ye a hope to find?
29358What praise of words is left to me to raise thee to the sky?
29358What saw I bitterer to be borne in all the city spilt?
29358What seek the souls, and why must some depart the river''s rim, While others with the sweep of oars the leaden waters skim?"
29358What the wail yon city casts abroad?"
29358What then is left of deed to do that yet I must abide?
29358What then?
29358What was the guilt of Lapithæ?
29358What will ye, Father Neptune, now?"
29358What winds, what fates gave thee the road to cross the ocean o''er?
29358What, saw they not the war- walls of Troy- town, The fashioning of Neptune''s hand, amid the flame sink down?
29358What, what will ye?"
29358Whence this so sudden clear Of weather?
29358Whence?
29358Where hurrieth he?
29358Where is the fierce heart?"
29358Where shall I seek thee, gathering up that tangle of the ways 390 Through the blind wood?"
29358Where shall I seek thee?
29358Where shall I turn so left alone?
29358Wherein hath Fortune worn thee so, That thou, midst sunless houses sad, confused lands, must go?"
29358While I, who go forth Queen of Gods, the very Highest''s bride And sister, must I wage a war for all these many years With one lone race?
29358Who drave away from Trojan keels so mighty great a flame?
29358Who had the might to deal thee this?
29358Who knoweth not Æneas''folk?
29358Whom first, whom last, O bitter Maid, didst thou overthrow with spear?
29358Whom fleest thou?
29358Whom fleest thou?
29358Whom unto thee when Troy yet was---- 340 The boy then, of his mother lost, hath he a thought of her?
29358Why arm they not?
29358Why bear our hands these useless spears, this steel not made for fight?
29358Why bide I till Pygmalion comes to lay my walls alow, Till taken by Getulian kings, Iarbas''slave I go?
29358Why doubt''st thou?
29358Why fleest thou not in haste away, while haste is yet to win?
29358Why gather not from all the town in chase?
29358Why give me everlasting life, and death- doom take away?
29358Why hide it now?
29358Why kept I not the faith of old to my Sychæus sworn?"
29358Why linger?
29358Why quake our limbs, yea e''en before they feel the trumpet''s gale?
29358Why ragest thou?
29358Why tell those deaths unspeakable, and many a tyrant''s deed?
29358Why was I not allowed to live without the bridal bed, 550 Sackless and free as beasts afield, with no woes wearièd?
29358Why, with hearts unruled, raise ye the strife so sore?
29358Wilt thou not first behold the place where worn by eld is he, Anchises, left?
29358Wilt thou not see if yet thy wife abide Creusa, or Ascanius yet?
29358Wilt thou not set thy speed aside, and''gainst me dare the fight On equal ground, and gird thyself for foot- fight face to face?
29358With all the emptiness of hope his headlong heart he fed:"Where fleest thou, Æneas, then?
29358Works Juno here, or Iris sent adown the cloudy way?
29358Yea, and what brought it all about that thus in arms they clashed, 90 Europe and Asia?
29358Yea, hast thou not within thy mind amidst whose bounds we are?
29358Yea, or ye, twin thunderbolts of war, Ye Scipios, bane of Libyan land?
29358ah me, where have I left thy face?
29358and hast thou hoped with lies to cover o''er Such wickedness, and silently to get thee from my shore?
29358and have I followed this o''er every land and sea?
29358and is he gone?
29358and is it peace or war?"
29358and is thy Mars indeed A dweller in the windy tongue and feet well learned in speed, 390 The same today as yesterday?
29358and shall I follow lone the joyous mariners?
29358and why hath Fate held back your doom till now?
29358and why with images and lies Dost thou beguile me?
29358and with what word may he be bold to win Peace of the Queen all mad with love?
29358by what craft shall I stay Thy light of life?
29358com''st thou a messenger 310 Alive indeed?
29358doth her own heart know the deed that all this wrath hath won?
29358fellows, from the lofty ships come ye but even now?''
29358forsooth What place, what land in all the earth but with our grief is stored?
29358from what shore com''st thou then, Long- looked- for Hector?
29358gave Troy so poor a flame To burn her men, that through the fire and through the swords ye came?
29358hadst thou the heart to leave me lone and spent?
29358hangs Turnus back again?
29358hath any God the power such things to do?
29358he cried,"what mighty grief stirs up the city so?
29358his eyes-- what were they moved?
29358hoping for what hope in Libya dost thou wear Thy days?
29358how cast myself in such a monster''s way?
29358is there left a soul that Juno fears Henceforth?
29358is this the promised throne?"
29358is this the triumph won?
29358lack we aught in might or muster- roll 230 To match them?
29358lives he and breathes he yet?
29358might I see thee not on such a peril sent?
29358must I wait till Turnus grows fain of the battle- play?
29358no shame, no pity do they raise?"
29358nor Dido doomed to die a bitter death?
29358nor right hand given in faith Awhile agone?
29358on every side they hedge the wall about Go we against them!--tarriest thou?
29358or if from thee the holy light is fled, Where then is Hector?''
29358or of nymphs whom shall I call thee now?
29358or vanquished men, to give their might increase?
29358or whither then is gone thy heed of me?
29358or who might trow Cassandra then?
29358or who would wish war against thee to hold, If only this may come to pass, and fate the deed may seal?
29358or will one suppliant hand gifts on mine altar lay?"
29358pass Cossus o''er?
29358seaward then, or Troyward shall we fall?"
29358tarrying for what hope among the enemy?
29358that at last, so many died away, Such toil of city, toil of men, we see thy face today, We so forewearied?
29358that men brake the plighted peace by theft?
29358there breaks withal a voice from out her breast:''What, war to pay for slaughtered neat, war for our heifers slain?
29358thy lordship and thy deeds hast thou forgotten quite?
29358was it right that mortal wound a God''s own flesh should wrong?
29358we it was who strove to wrack the fainting Trojan weal?
29358what abyss of earth is deep enough to hide The wretched man?
29358what country''s soil may bear Such savage ways?
29358what crime wrought Calydon?
29358what deed is left thine hand?
29358what evil heart hast thou, With weapons thus to gird thyself, or whither wilt thou now?
29358what folly shifts my mind?
29358what hap hath caught thee up from such a man downcast?
29358what is this that rolleth on, this misty, mirky ball?
29358what madness hither sped?
29358what man shall I come back again?
29358what mean these hurts thou showest to mine eyes?''
29358what mighty ones gave such an one today?
29358what skills it man to trust in Gods compelled to good?
29358what sloth is this delayeth so your ways?
29358what stronghold keep we yet?''
29358what wise shall he begin?
29358what wouldst thou have them be?
29358whence will he That we should seek us aid of toil; where turn to o''er the sea?
29358where is thy fame sown broad Through all Trinacria, where the spoils hung up beneath thy roof?"
29358where is thy trust in me, I prithee, O my God and Love?
29358where to go?
29358where wends our contest now?
29358wherefore then is hand to hand not given And we to give and take in words that come from earth and heaven?"
29358wherein our home set forth?
29358whither?
29358who driveth thee from these embraces fain?"
29358who egged on these or those To fear or fight, or drave them on with edge of sword to close?
29358who knoweth not Troy- town, The valour, and the men, and all the flame of such a war?
29358why hold me back lest greater evil be?
29358why leave thy plighted bride?
29358why run ye not the ships down from their standing- place?
29358why slayest thou with words?
29358why this flight?
29358why thus afoot, and why in weapons do ye wend, And whither go ye?"
29358why tread I longer ways 480 Of speech, and stay the rising South with words that I would tell?''
29358would''st have me trow in such a monster''s truth?
29358Æneas calls me only of the peers?
29358Æneas cried:"where hurriest thou again?
29358Æneas wondered at the press, and moved thereby he spoke:"Say, Maid, what means this river- side, and gathering of the folk?
1616''And what are ion, reon, doun?''
1616''But then, why, Socrates, is language so consistent?
1616''But, Socrates, as I was telling you, Cratylus mystifies me; I should like to ask him, in your presence, what he means by the fitness of names?''
1616''How do you explain pur n udor?''
1616''Which of us by taking thought''can make new words or constructions?
1616''Will you go on to the elements-- sun, moon, stars, earth, aether, air, fire, water, seasons, years?''
1616( Compare Plato, Laws):--''ATHENIAN STRANGER: And what then is to be regarded as the origin of government?
1616ATHENIAN STRANGER: And have there not been thousands and thousands of cities which have come into being and perished during this period?
1616ATHENIAN STRANGER: But you are quite sure that it must be vast and incalculable?
1616ATHENIAN STRANGER: Why, do you think that you can reckon the time which has elapsed since cities first existed and men were citizens of them?
1616And I think that I ought to stop and ask myself What am I saying?
1616And Socrates?
1616And even if this had been otherwise, who would learn of words when he might learn of things?
1616And has not every place had endless forms of government, and been sometimes rising, and at other times falling, and again improving or waning?''
1616And is there not an essence of colour and sound as well as of anything else which may be said to have an essence?
1616And let me ask another question,--If we had no faculty of speech, how should we communicate with one another?
1616And not the rest?
1616And now let me see; where are we?
1616And what do you consider to be the meaning of this word?
1616And what is the final result of the enquiry?
1616And which are more likely to be right-- the wiser or the less wise, the men or the women?
1616Are not actions also a class of being?
1616Are there any names which witness of themselves that they are not given arbitrarily, but have a natural fitness?
1616Are we to count them like votes?
1616Are we to count them, Cratylus; and is correctness of names to be determined by the voice of a majority?
1616Are we to say of whichever sort there are most, those are the true ones?
1616But I should like to know whether you are one of those philosophers who think that falsehood may be spoken but not said?
1616But I wish that you would tell me, Socrates, what sort of an imitation is a name?
1616But an image in fact always falls short in some degree of the original, and if images are not exact counterparts, why should names be?
1616But are not such distinctions an anachronism?
1616But are words really consistent; are there not as many terms of praise which signify rest as which signify motion?
1616But do you not see that there is a degree of deception about names?
1616But have we any more explanations of the names of the Gods, like that which you were giving of Zeus?
1616But how does the carpenter make or repair the shuttle, and to what will he look?
1616But how shall we further analyse them, and where does the imitator begin?
1616But let me ask you what is the use and force of names?
1616But let me ask you, what is the force of names, and what is the use of them?
1616But then, how do the primary names indicate anything?
1616But then, why do the Eritreans call that skleroter which we call sklerotes?
1616But to what are you referring?
1616But what do you say of the month and the stars?
1616But what is kakon?
1616But who is to be the judge of the proper form?
1616But who makes a name?
1616But why do you not give me another word?
1616But why should we not discuss another kind of Gods-- the sun, moon, stars, earth, aether, air, fire, water, the seasons, and the year?
1616CLEINIAS: How so?
1616CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1616CRATYLUS: But, Socrates, am I not right in thinking that he must surely have known; or else, as I was saying, his names would not be names at all?
1616CRATYLUS: How so?
1616CRATYLUS: How so?
1616CRATYLUS: What do you mean?
1616CRATYLUS: Why, Socrates, how can a man say that which is not?--say something and yet say nothing?
1616Can the thing beauty be vanishing away from us while the words are yet in our mouths?
1616Consider this in the light of the previous instances: to what does the carpenter look in making the shuttle?
1616Did you ever observe in speaking that all the words which you utter have a common character and purpose?
1616Do you agree with him, or would you say that things have a permanent essence of their own?
1616Do you agree with me that the letter rho is expressive of rapidity, motion, and hardness?
1616Do you agree with me?
1616Do you mean that the discovery of names is the same as the discovery of things?
1616Do you not conceive that to be the meaning of them?
1616Do you not perceive that images are very far from having qualities which are the exact counterpart of the realities which they represent?
1616Do you not suppose this to be true?
1616Do you think that likely?
1616Does he not in these passages make a remarkable statement about the correctness of names?
1616Does he not look to that which is naturally fitted to act as a shuttle?
1616Does he not say that Hector''s son had two names--''Hector called him Scamandrius, but the others Astyanax''?
1616Does not Cratylus agree with him that names teach us the nature of things?
1616Does not the law give names, and does not the teacher receive them from the legislator?
1616For example, what business has the letter rho in the word katoptron, or the letter sigma in the word sphigx?
1616For is not falsehood saying the thing which is not?
1616For is there not a true beauty and a true good, which is always beautiful and always good?
1616For the Gods must clearly be supposed to call things by their right and natural names; do you not think so?
1616For were we not saying just now that he made some names expressive of rest and others of motion?
1616HERMOGENES: And what are the traditions?
1616HERMOGENES: And what do you say of their opposites?
1616HERMOGENES: And what is the true derivation?
1616HERMOGENES: And where does Homer say anything about names, and what does he say?
1616HERMOGENES: But what do you say of Hephaestus?
1616HERMOGENES: But what do you say of kalon?
1616HERMOGENES: But what is selene( the moon)?
1616HERMOGENES: But what is the meaning of kakon, which has played so great a part in your previous discourse?
1616HERMOGENES: But what shall we say of the next word?
1616HERMOGENES: How do you make that out?
1616HERMOGENES: How do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: How do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: How is that, Socrates?
1616HERMOGENES: How plausible?
1616HERMOGENES: How shall I reflect?
1616HERMOGENES: How so?
1616HERMOGENES: How so?
1616HERMOGENES: How so?
1616HERMOGENES: How so?
1616HERMOGENES: May I ask you to examine another word about which I am curious?
1616HERMOGENES: Must not demons and heroes and men come next?
1616HERMOGENES: No, indeed; not I. SOCRATES: But tell me, friend, did not Homer himself also give Hector his name?
1616HERMOGENES: Of what nature?
1616HERMOGENES: Suppose that we make Socrates a party to the argument?
1616HERMOGENES: Then I rather think that I am of one mind with you; but what is the meaning of the word''hero''?
1616HERMOGENES: Very good; and what do we say of Demeter, and Here, and Apollo, and Athene, and Hephaestus, and Ares, and the other deities?
1616HERMOGENES: Very true; but what is the derivation of zemiodes?
1616HERMOGENES: Well, and what of them?
1616HERMOGENES: Well, but what is lusiteloun( profitable)?
1616HERMOGENES: What device?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you mean?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you say of edone( pleasure), lupe( pain), epithumia( desire), and the like, Socrates?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you say of pur( fire) and udor( water)?
1616HERMOGENES: What do you think of doxa( opinion), and that class of words?
1616HERMOGENES: What is Ares?
1616HERMOGENES: What is it?
1616HERMOGENES: What is the inference?
1616HERMOGENES: What is the inference?
1616HERMOGENES: What is the meaning of Dionysus and Aphrodite?
1616HERMOGENES: What of that?
1616HERMOGENES: What other appellation?
1616HERMOGENES: What then?
1616HERMOGENES: What was the name?
1616HERMOGENES: What way?
1616HERMOGENES: Which are they?
1616HERMOGENES: Why do you say so?
1616HERMOGENES: Why not?
1616HERMOGENES: Why, Socrates?
1616HERMOGENES: Why, how is that?
1616HERMOGENES: Yes; but what do you say of the other name?
1616HERMOGENES: Yes; what other answer is possible?
1616Have we not been saying that the correct name indicates the nature of the thing:--has this proposition been sufficiently proven?
1616Have you remarked this fact?
1616How could there be names for all the numbers unless you allow that convention is used?
1616How did the roots or substantial portions of words become modified or inflected?
1616How they originated, who can tell?
1616How, he would probably have argued, could men devoid of art have contrived a structure of such complexity?
1616I utter a sound which I understand, and you know that I understand the meaning of the sound: this is what you are saying?
1616Is Plato an upholder of the conventional theory of language, which he acknowledges to be imperfect?
1616Is it the best sort of information?
1616Is language conscious or unconscious?
1616Is not all that quite possible?
1616Is the giving of the names of streams to both of them purely accidental?
1616Let me explain what I mean: of painters, some are better and some worse?
1616Let me put the matter as follows: All objects have sound and figure, and many have colour?
1616Let us consider:--does he not himself suggest a very good reason, when he says,''For he alone defended their city and long walls''?
1616May I not say to him--''This is your name''?
1616May we suppose that Plato, like Lucian, has been amusing his fancy by writing a comedy in the form of a prose dialogue?
1616Now that we have a general notion, how shall we proceed?
1616Now, if the men called him Astyanax, is it not probable that the other name was conferred by the women?
1616Or about Batieia and Myrina?
1616Or if this latter explanation is refuted by his silence, then in what relation does his account of language stand to the rest of his philosophy?
1616Or may we be so bold as to deny the connexion between them?
1616Regarding the name as an instrument, what do we do when we name?
1616SOCRATES: Again, is there not an essence of each thing, just as there is a colour, or sound?
1616SOCRATES: And I ask again,''What do we do when we weave?''
1616SOCRATES: And a true proposition says that which is, and a false proposition says that which is not?
1616SOCRATES: And among legislators, there are some who do their work better and some worse?
1616SOCRATES: And are both modes of assigning them right, or only the first?
1616SOCRATES: And are not the good wise?
1616SOCRATES: And are not the works of intelligence and mind worthy of praise, and are not other works worthy of blame?
1616SOCRATES: And are the men or the women of a city, taken as a class, the wiser?
1616SOCRATES: And at what point ought he to lose heart and give up the enquiry?
1616SOCRATES: And conversely you may attribute the likeness of the man to the woman, and of the woman to the man?
1616SOCRATES: And do you know that the ancients said duogon and not zugon?
1616SOCRATES: And do you not believe with Anaxagoras, that mind or soul is the ordering and containing principle of all things?
1616SOCRATES: And do you not suppose that good men of our own day would by him be said to be of golden race?
1616SOCRATES: And do you not think that many a one would escape from Hades, if he did not bind those who depart to him by the strongest of chains?
1616SOCRATES: And does this art grow up among men like other arts?
1616SOCRATES: And him who knows how to ask and answer you would call a dialectician?
1616SOCRATES: And how does the legislator make names?
1616SOCRATES: And how to answer them?
1616SOCRATES: And how to put into wood forms of shuttles adapted by nature to their uses?
1616SOCRATES: And if a man were to call him Hermogenes, would he not be even speaking falsely?
1616SOCRATES: And if by the greatest of chains, then by some desire, as I should certainly infer, and not by necessity?
1616SOCRATES: And if speaking is a sort of action and has a relation to acts, is not naming also a sort of action?
1616SOCRATES: And if when I speak you know my meaning, there is an indication given by me to you?
1616SOCRATES: And is any desire stronger than the thought that you will be made better by associating with another?
1616SOCRATES: And is every man a carpenter, or the skilled only?
1616SOCRATES: And is every man a legislator, or the skilled only?
1616SOCRATES: And is every man a smith, or only the skilled?
1616SOCRATES: And is not Apollo the purifier, and the washer, and the absolver from all impurities?
1616SOCRATES: And is not naming a part of speaking?
1616SOCRATES: And is not that the reason, Hermogenes, why no one, who has been to him, is willing to come back to us?
1616SOCRATES: And is not the part of a falsehood also a falsehood?
1616SOCRATES: And may not a similar description be given of an awl, and of instruments in general?
1616SOCRATES: And may not the same be said of a king?
1616SOCRATES: And must not Homer have imagined the Trojans to be wiser than their wives?
1616SOCRATES: And must not this be the mind of Gods, or of men, or of both?
1616SOCRATES: And naming is an art, and has artificers?
1616SOCRATES: And not the rest?
1616SOCRATES: And now suppose that I ask a similar question about names: will you answer me?
1616SOCRATES: And speech is a kind of action?
1616SOCRATES: And suppose the shuttle to be broken in making, will he make another, looking to the broken one?
1616SOCRATES: And that lamda was expressive of smoothness, and softness, and the like?
1616SOCRATES: And that principle we affirm to be mind?
1616SOCRATES: And that which has to be named has to be named with something?
1616SOCRATES: And that which has to be woven or pierced has to be woven or pierced with something?
1616SOCRATES: And the name of anything is that which any one affirms to be the name?
1616SOCRATES: And the principle of beauty does the works of beauty?
1616SOCRATES: And the proper letters are those which are like the things?
1616SOCRATES: And the shuttle is the instrument of the weaver?
1616SOCRATES: And the work of the legislator is to give names, and the dialectician must be his director if the names are to be rightly given?
1616SOCRATES: And there are many desires?
1616SOCRATES: And there are true and false propositions?
1616SOCRATES: And therefore by the greatest desire, if the chain is to be the greatest?
1616SOCRATES: And this artist of names is called the legislator?
1616SOCRATES: And this holds good of all actions?
1616SOCRATES: And this is he who knows how to ask questions?
1616SOCRATES: And we saw that actions were not relative to ourselves, but had a special nature of their own?
1616SOCRATES: And what do you say of the insertion of the lamda?
1616SOCRATES: And what is custom but convention?
1616SOCRATES: And what is the nature of this truth or correctness of names?
1616SOCRATES: And what is the reason of this?
1616SOCRATES: And what of those who follow out of the course of nature, and are prodigies?
1616SOCRATES: And when the piercer uses the awl, whose work will he be using well?
1616SOCRATES: And when the teacher uses the name, whose work will he be using?
1616SOCRATES: And when the weaver uses the shuttle, whose work will he be using well?
1616SOCRATES: And which, then, did he make, my good friend; those which are expressive of rest, or those which are expressive of motion?
1616SOCRATES: And who are they?
1616SOCRATES: And who is he?
1616SOCRATES: And who uses the work of the lyre- maker?
1616SOCRATES: And who will be best able to direct the legislator in his work, and will know whether the work is well done, in this or any other country?
1616SOCRATES: And who will direct the shipwright?
1616SOCRATES: And will a man speak correctly who speaks as he pleases?
1616SOCRATES: And will there be so many names of each thing as everybody says that there are?
1616SOCRATES: And with which we name?
1616SOCRATES: And with which we weave?
1616SOCRATES: And would you further acknowledge that the name is an imitation of the thing?
1616SOCRATES: And would you hold that the very good were the very wise, and the very evil very foolish?
1616SOCRATES: And would you say that the giver of the first names had also a knowledge of the things which he named?
1616SOCRATES: And you would say that pictures are also imitations of things, but in another way?
1616SOCRATES: Are they altogether alike?
1616SOCRATES: Are you maintaining that falsehood is impossible?
1616SOCRATES: Athene?
1616SOCRATES: But again, that which has to be cut has to be cut with something?
1616SOCRATES: But are these the only primary names, or are there others?
1616SOCRATES: But do you not allow that some nouns are primitive, and some derived?
1616SOCRATES: But how about truth, then?
1616SOCRATES: But how could he have learned or discovered things from names if the primitive names were not yet given?
1616SOCRATES: But how would you expect to know them?
1616SOCRATES: But if Protagoras is right, and the truth is that things are as they appear to any one, how can some of us be wise and some of us foolish?
1616SOCRATES: But if that is true, Cratylus, then I suppose that things may be known without names?
1616SOCRATES: But is a proposition true as a whole only, and are the parts untrue?
1616SOCRATES: But let us see, Cratylus, whether we can not find a meeting- point, for you would admit that the name is not the same with the thing named?
1616SOCRATES: But the art of naming appears not to be concerned with imitations of this kind; the arts which have to do with them are music and drawing?
1616SOCRATES: But who then is to determine whether the proper form is given to the shuttle, whatever sort of wood may be used?
1616SOCRATES: But would you say, Hermogenes, that the things differ as the names differ?
1616SOCRATES: Can not you at least say who gives us the names which we use?
1616SOCRATES: Do we not give information to one another, and distinguish things according to their natures?
1616SOCRATES: Do you admit a name to be the representation of a thing?
1616SOCRATES: Do you not know that the heroes are demigods?
1616SOCRATES: Do you not know what he says about the river in Troy who had a single combat with Hephaestus?
1616SOCRATES: Do you not remember that he speaks of a golden race of men who came first?
1616SOCRATES: Do you observe that only the ancient form shows the intention of the giver of the name?
1616SOCRATES: Does not the law seem to you to give us them?
1616SOCRATES: Does what I am saying apply only to the things themselves, or equally to the actions which proceed from them?
1616SOCRATES: First look at the matter thus: you may attribute the likeness of the man to the man, and of the woman to the woman; and so on?
1616SOCRATES: How would you answer, if you were asked whether the wise or the unwise are more likely to give correct names?
1616SOCRATES: How would you have me begin?
1616SOCRATES: I will tell you my own opinion; but first, I should like to ask you which chain does any animal feel to be the stronger?
1616SOCRATES: I will tell you; but I should like to know first whether you can tell me what is the meaning of the pur?
1616SOCRATES: In as far as they are like, or in as far as they are unlike?
1616SOCRATES: Is a proposition resolvable into any part smaller than a name?
1616SOCRATES: Is not mind that which called( kalesan) things by their names, and is not mind the beautiful( kalon)?
1616SOCRATES: Let me ask you what is the cause why anything has a name; is not the principle which imposes the name the cause?
1616SOCRATES: Let me ask you, then, which did Homer think the more correct of the names given to Hector''s son-- Astyanax or Scamandrius?
1616SOCRATES: Might not that be justly called the true or ideal shuttle?
1616SOCRATES: Names, then, are given in order to instruct?
1616SOCRATES: Nor uttered nor addressed?
1616SOCRATES: Or that one name is better than another?
1616SOCRATES: Ought we not to begin with the consideration of the Gods, and show that they are rightly named Gods?
1616SOCRATES: Physic does the work of a physician, and carpentering does the works of a carpenter?
1616SOCRATES: Shall we begin, then, with Hestia, according to custom?
1616SOCRATES: Shall we leave them, then?
1616SOCRATES: Speak you of the princely lord of light( Phaeos istora)?
1616SOCRATES: Still you have found them?
1616SOCRATES: Suppose that I ask,''What sort of instrument is a shuttle?''
1616SOCRATES: Tell me, then, did the first legislators, who were the givers of the first names, know or not know the things which they named?
1616SOCRATES: That is to say, the mode of assignment which attributes to each that which belongs to them and is like them?
1616SOCRATES: The same names, then, ought to be assigned to those who follow in the course of nature?
1616SOCRATES: The two words selas( brightness) and phos( light) have much the same meaning?
1616SOCRATES: Then a name is a vocal imitation of that which the vocal imitator names or imitates?
1616SOCRATES: Then all names are rightly imposed?
1616SOCRATES: Then could I have been right in what I was saying?
1616SOCRATES: Then he must have thought Astyanax to be a more correct name for the boy than Scamandrius?
1616SOCRATES: Then how came the giver of the names, if he was an inspired being or God, to contradict himself?
1616SOCRATES: Then how can that be a real thing which is never in the same state?
1616SOCRATES: Then in a proposition there is a true and false?
1616SOCRATES: Then let us proceed; and where would you have us begin, now that we have got a sort of outline of the enquiry?
1616SOCRATES: Then like other artists the legislator may be good or he may be bad; it must surely be so if our former admissions hold good?
1616SOCRATES: Then mind is rightly called beauty because she does the works which we recognize and speak of as the beautiful?
1616SOCRATES: Then that is the explanation of the name Pallas?
1616SOCRATES: Then the actions also are done according to their proper nature, and not according to our opinion of them?
1616SOCRATES: Then the artist of names may be sometimes good, or he may be bad?
1616SOCRATES: Then the irreligious son of a religious father should be called irreligious?
1616SOCRATES: Then the name is a part of the true proposition?
1616SOCRATES: Then the teacher, when he gives us a name, uses the work of the legislator?
1616SOCRATES: Then the weaver will use the shuttle well-- and well means like a weaver?
1616SOCRATES: Then you do not think that some laws are better and others worse?
1616SOCRATES: Then, if propositions may be true and false, names may be true and false?
1616SOCRATES: Very good: then a name is an instrument?
1616SOCRATES: Well, and about this river-- to know that he ought to be called Xanthus and not Scamander-- is not that a solemn lesson?
1616SOCRATES: Well, and have you ever found any very good ones?
1616SOCRATES: Well, and if any one could express the essence of each thing in letters and syllables, would he not express the nature of each thing?
1616SOCRATES: Well, but do you suppose that you will be able to analyse them in this way?
1616SOCRATES: What is that which holds and carries and gives life and motion to the entire nature of the body?
1616SOCRATES: What is that with which we pierce?
1616SOCRATES: What may we suppose him to have meant who gave the name Hestia?
1616SOCRATES: What more names remain to us?
1616SOCRATES: What of that, Cratylus?
1616SOCRATES: What shall follow the Gods?
1616SOCRATES: What shall we take next?
1616SOCRATES: Whether the giver of the name be an individual or a city?
1616SOCRATES: Why clearly he who first gave names gave them according to his conception of the things which they signified-- did he not?
1616SOCRATES: Why, Hermogenes, I do not as yet see myself; and do you?
1616SOCRATES: Why, what is the difference?
1616SOCRATES: Would you say the large parts and not the smaller ones, or every part?
1616SOCRATES: You are aware that speech signifies all things( pan), and is always turning them round and round, and has two forms, true and false?
1616SOCRATES: You know how Hesiod uses the word?
1616SOCRATES: You know the word maiesthai( to seek)?
1616SOCRATES: You mean to say, how should I answer him?
1616SOCRATES: You want me first of all to examine the natural fitness of the word psuche( soul), and then of the word soma( body)?
1616Shall I take first of all him whom you mentioned first-- the sun?
1616Shall we not be deceived by him?
1616Should we not use signs, like the deaf and dumb?
1616Socrates asks, whether the things differ as the words which represent them differ:--Are we to maintain with Protagoras, that what appears is?
1616Suddenly, on some occasion of interest( at the approach of a wild beast, shall we say?
1616Take, for example, the word katoptron; why is the letter rho inserted?
1616Then how came the giver of names to contradict himself, and to make some names expressive of rest, and others of motion?
1616Very good: and which shall I take first?
1616Was I not telling you just now( but you have forgotten), that I knew nothing, and proposing to share the enquiry with you?
1616Was there a correctness in words, and were they given by nature or convention?
1616We can understand one another, although the letter rho accent is not equivalent to the letter s: why is this?
1616Well, then, there is the letter lambda; what business has this in a word meaning hardness?
1616Were we mistaken?
1616Were we right or wrong in saying so?
1616What did he mean who gave the name Hestia?
1616What do you say to another?
1616What do you say, Cratylus?
1616What do you say?
1616What do you think?
1616What else but the soul?
1616What is the result of recent speculations about the origin and nature of language?
1616What names will afford the most crucial test of natural fitness?
1616What principle of correctness is there in those charming words, wisdom, understanding, justice, and the rest?''
1616What principle of correctness is there in those charming words-- wisdom, understanding, justice, and the rest of them?
1616What remains after justice?
1616What will this imitator be called?
1616What, then, is a name?
1616Which of these two notions do you prefer?
1616Why are some verbs impersonal?
1616Why are there only so many parts of speech, and on what principle are they divided?
1616Why do substantives often differ in meaning from the verbs to which they are related, adverbs from adjectives?
1616Why do words differing in origin coalesce in the same sound though retaining their differences of meaning?
1616Why does the meaning of words depart so widely from their etymology?
1616Why is the number of words so small in which the sound is an echo of the sense?
1616Will he not look at the ideal which he has in his mind?
1616Will not a man be able to judge best from a point of view in which he may behold the progress of states and their transitions to good and evil?
1616Will not he be the man who knows how to direct what is being done, and who will know also whether the work is being well done or not?
1616Will not the user be the man?
1616Will you help me in the search?
1616Would that be your view?
1616Would you not say so?
1616You know the distinction of soul and body?
1616You were saying, if you remember, that he who gave names must have known the things which he named; are you still of that opinion?
1616and are they relative to individuals, as Protagoras tells us?
1616and how did they receive separate meanings?
1616and is correctness of names the voice of the majority?
1616and the teacher will use the name well-- and well means like a teacher?
1616and to what does he look?
1616and which confines him more to the same spot,--desire or necessity?
1616and will they be true names at the time of uttering them?
1616have you ever been driven to admit that there was no such thing as a bad man?
1616or does he mean to imply that a perfect language can only be based on his own theory of ideas?
1616or is there any other?
1616or will he look to the form according to which he made the other?
1616the carpenter who makes, or the weaver who is to use them?
1616would these words be true or false?
1616you would acknowledge that there is in words a true and a false?
602For deeds like these, shall Sulla now be styled''Darling of Fortune'',''Saviour of the State''? 602 What this hope,"she cried,"Roman, that moves thy breast to know the fates?
602What youth,he cries,"Dares strike me down, and through his captain''s wounds Attest his love for death?"
602Where dost thou snatch me, Paean, to what shore Through airy regions borne? 602 Why delay the fates, Thou cause of evil to the suffering world?
602Why now renew The tale of Catulus''s shade appeased? 602 Wretch, and dost thou deem Me wanting in a brave man''s heart?"
602( 11) So Cicero:"Shall I, who have been called saviour of the city and father of my country, bring into it an army of Getae Armenians and Colchians?"
602( 12)"Petenda est"?
602( 18)"Hath Jove no thunder?"
602( 8) Who would think Your hands were stained with blood?
602-- Is this thy consort, Magnus, this thy faith In her fond loving heart?
602--"is it fit that you should beg for the lives of your leaders?"
602Against all the gods Is this their influence, or on one alone Who to his will constrains the universe, Himself constrained?
602All men must bear what chance or fate may bring, The sudden peril and the stroke of death; But shall the ruler of the world attempt The raging ocean?
602Amyclas from his couch of soft seaweed Arising, calls:"What shipwrecked sailor seeks My humble home?
602And could ye not with victory gained return, Restorers of her liberty, to Rome?
602And did Pompeius name Thee his successor, thee?
602And dost thou dare when heaven''s high thunder rolls, Thou, puny boy, to mingle with its tones Thine impure utterance?
602And dost thou doubt, since thou art in my power, Thou art my victim?
602And dost thou not know The purpose of such havoc?
602And dost thou sue for peace?''
602And dost thou think We only know not what degree of crime Will fetch the highest price?
602And doth its term Make difference?
602And fling a challenge to the conquering chief And all his proud successes?
602And has our shame Brought us to this, that some barbarian foe Shall venge Hesperia''s wrongs ere Rome her own?
602And have I seemed Tender, unfit to bear the morning heat?
602And have they left thee, Rome, without a blow?
602And shall there be no end Of these long years of power and of crime?
602And shall this For ever be my lot?
602And those dread tortures which the living frame Of Marius( 12) suffered at the tomb of him Who haply wished them not?
602And thou, proud conqueror, who would''st deny The rites of burial to thousands slain, Why flee thy field of triumph?
602And what of harvests( 13) blighted through the world And ghastly famine made to serve his ends?
602And what shall be Septimius''fame hereafter?
602And when rushing on thine end Was I to live?
602And when the share Cease to upturn the slaughtered hosts of Rome?
602And who would fear Thy haunts, Salpuga?
602And why thyself didst seek Italia''s shores?
602And, king, hast thou no fear At such a ruin of so great a name?
602Art thou for peace, Holding thy footsteps in a tottering world Unshaken?
602Art thou not shamed That strife should please thee only, now condemned Even by thy minions?
602Art thou the Senate''s comrade or her lord?
602At the sight the Gauls Grieved; but the garrison within the walls Rejoiced: for thus shall men insult the gods And find no punishment?
602Both Consuls stand Here; here for battle stand your lawful chiefs: And shall this Caesar drag the Senate down?
602But Caesar now, Thinking the peril worthy of his fates:"Are such the labours of the gods?"
602But Cato hailed them from the furthest beach:"Untamed Cilician, is thy course now set For Ocean theft again; Pompeius gone, Once more a pirate?"
602But Cato, full Of godlike thoughts borne in his quiet breast, This answer uttered, worthy of the shrines:"What, Labienus, dost thou bid me ask?
602But Cornelia still Withstood his bidding, and with arms outspread Frenzied she cried:"And whither without me, Cruel, departest?
602But for the boon of death, who''d dare the sea Of prosperous chance?
602But grant that strangers shun thy destinies And only Romans fight-- shall not the son Shrink ere he strike his father?
602But has the pole Been moved, or in its nightly course some star Turned backwards, that such mighty deeds should pass Here on Thessalian earth?
602But he, though heaven and hell thus bode defeat, More bent on war, with mind assured of ill,"Why dread vain phantoms of a dreaming brain?
602But in what land, what region of the sky, Where left we Africa?
602But now with frosts Cyrene stiffened: have we changed the laws Which rule the seasons, in this little space?
602But such name as his Who ever merited by successful war Or slaughtered peoples?
602But thou, Caesar, to what gods of ill Didst thou appeal?
602But whither now dost bid me shape the yards And set the canvas?"
602But who had power like him?
602But why entreat the gods?
602But why then took we arms For love of liberty?
602But why these battle lines, No foe to vanquish-- Rome on either hand?
602But you, who still might hope For pardon if defeated-- what can match Your deep dishonour?
602But, Brutus, where, Where was thy sword?
602By what hateful crime Didst thou offend that thus on thee alone Was laid such carnage?
602By what length of years Shalt thou be cleansed from the curse of war?
602By what name This deed be called, if Brutus wrought a crime?
602By what trust in us Cam''st thou, unhappy?
602Caesar called him by name and said:"Well, Crastinus, shall we win today?"
602Caesar stood and saw The dark blood welling forth and death at hand, And thus in words of scorn:"And dost thou lie, Domitius, there?
602Caesar to the Nile Has won before us; for what other hand May do such work?
602Can danger fright Her and not thee?
602Can fame Grow by achievement?
602Can violence to the good Do injury?
602Could Gallia hold Thine armies ten long years ere victory came, That little nook of earth?
602Could ye not have spoiled, To deck your trophies, haughty Babylon?
602Dark in the calendar of Rome for aye, The days when Allia and Cannae fell: And shall Pharsalus''morn, darkest of all, Stand on the page unmarked?
602Did I deserve Thus to be left of thee, and didst thou seek To spare me?
602Did I not trust it with so sweet a pledge And find it faithful?
602Did Pompeius hope, Thus severed by the billows from the foe, To make his safety sure?
602Did not the shade of Crassus, wandering still,( 2) Cry for his vengeance?
602Did the Bruti strike In vain for liberty?
602Didst favour gain By sacrifice in this thine impious war?
602Didst think perchance that grief Might help thy cause''mid lovers of his name?
602Didst thou with impious war pursue the man Whom''twas thy lot to mourn?
602Didst thou, Fortune, for the sake Of nations, spare to dread Pharsalus field This savage monster''s blows?
602Do Fortune''s threats avail Outweighed by virtue?
602Do Libyan whirlpools with deceitful tides Uncertain separate us?
602Do thus Our fates press on the world?
602Do ye hear?
602Do ye turn Your backs on death, and are ye not ashamed Not to be found where slaughtered heroes lie?
602Does Fortune drive Thee, Magnus, to the Parthians''feet alone?
602Does he take heart from Gaul: For years on years rebellious, and a life Spent there in labour?
602Dost delay Nor hasten to the chamber of thy Queen?
602Dost dread the gods, Or think they favour not the Senate''s cause?
602Dost fear the man Who takes his title to be feared from thee?
602Dost thou not, impious, upon thy heart Pompeius''image, and upon thy soul Bear ineffaceable?
602Doth it not suffice To aim at deeds of bravery?
602Doth some bond Control the deities?
602Doth the carnage fail, The world escaping?
602Ere the fight was fought We joined not either army-- shall we now Make Magnus friend whom all the world deserts?
602Find we no cure for wounds?
602Find''st thou not Some solace thus in parting from the fight Nor seeing all the horrors of its close?
602Flies not this wretched soul before your whips The void of Erebus?
602Fly?
602For such alliance wilt thou risk a death, With all the world between thee and thy home?
602For these, a tomb in middle field of Mars Record his fame?
602For to whom on earth If not to blameless Cato, shall the gods Entrust their secrets?
602For what blame Can rest on thee or Caesar, worse than this That in the clash of conflict ye forgot For Crassus''slaughtered troops the vengeance due?
602For what crime?
602From Libyan ruins did not Marius rise Again recorded Consul on the page Full of his honours?
602Had''st thou no trust in us?
602Have then your efforts given Strength to my cause?
602His faith In poisoned blades is placed; but trustest thou Those who without such aid refuse the war?
602His latest prize Shall I be, Caesar, I, who would not quit My conquering eagles at his proud command?
602How seemed it just to thee, Olympus''king, That suffering mortals at thy doom should know By omens dire the massacre to come?
602How shall he Enter the city, who on such a field Finds happiness?
602If for him were meant An empire o''er the world, had they not put An end to Magnus''life?
602If from every land Thou dost debar me, why didst turn aside In flight to Lesbos?
602If nor the rout nor dread Pharsalia''s field Nor yet Pompeius''death shall close the war, Whence comes the end?
602If thou place me there, The spouse of Magnus, shall not all the world Well know the secret Mitylene holds?
602In Thessalia''s field Gave we such right to the Pellaean blade?
602In what plague, ye gods, In what destruction shall ye wreak your ire?
602Is Rome thus fallen That in our civil frays the Phaxian sword Finds place, or Egypt?
602Is civil conquest then so base and vile?
602Is it well that I should die Even while you pray for fortune?
602Is longest life worth aught?
602Is loyalty too weak?
602Is such thy madness, Caesar?
602Is the cause Lost in one battle and beyond recall?
602Is the deep Untried to which I call?
602Is their pleasure so, Or must they listen?
602Long ago I ran my ships midway through sands and shoals To harbours held by foes; and dost thou fear My friendly camp?
602Long since our mutual fates Hang by one chain; and dost thou bid me now The thunder- bolts of ruin to withstand Without thee?
602Magnus as partner in the rule of Rome I had not brooked; and shall I tolerate Thee, Ptolemaeus?
602Magnus might have used To evil ends your blood; refuse ye now, With liberty so near, your country''s call?
602Magnus''fortunes lost, Why doom all else beside him?"
602Me do ye think Such as yourselves, and slow to meet the fates?
602Mr. Haskins says,"shall you have to beg for them?"
602Noble blood True, is not ours: what boots it?
602Nor bear thyself the bleeding trophy home?
602Nor drag Amasis from the Pyramids, And all their ancient Kings, to swim the Nile?
602Nor leave me here, but take me to the camp, Thy fond companion: why should Magnus''wife Be nearer, Cato, to the wars than thine?"
602Now holds this boy Her sceptre, owed to thee; his guardian thou: And who shall fear this shadow of a name?
602Old, does he call me?
602On Mimas shall he hurl His fires, on Rhodope and Oeta''s woods Unmeriting such chastisement, and leave This life to Cassius''hand?
602On the waves alone Am I thy fit companion?"
602One day''s defeat Condemned the world to ruin?
602Or does he boast because his citizens Were driven in arms to leave their hearths and homes?
602Or dost thou place Throughout the world, for thy mysterious ends, Some ministering swords for civil war?
602Or haply, moved by envy of the king, Griev''st that to other hands than thine was given To shed the captive''s life- blood?
602Or wert thou dumb That Fortune''s sword for civil strife might wreak Just vengeance, and a Brutus''arm once more Strike down the tyrant?
602Or wilt thou with the leaders''crimes And with the people''s fury take thy part, And by thy presence purge the war of guilt?
602Or, is Chance sovereign over all, and we The sport of Fortune and her turning wheel?
602Rome''neath the ruin of Pompeius lies: Shalt thou, king, uphold him?
602See ye how the gods Weigh down Italia''s loss by all the world Thrown in the other scale?
602Seek ye by barricades And streams to keep me back?
602Shall Armenia care Who leads her masters, or barbarians shed One drop of blood to make Pompeius chief O''er our Italia?
602Shall Cato for war''s sake make war alone?
602Shall Earth yawn open and engulph the towns?
602Shall Eastern hordes and greedy hirelings keep Their loved Pompeius ever at the helm?
602Shall I spare Great Alexander''s fort, nor sack the shrine And plunge his body in the tideless marsh?
602Shall Scythian tribes desert their distant north, And Getae haste to view the fall of Rome, And I look idly on?
602Shall bloodless victories in civil war Be shunned, not sought?
602Shall chariots of triumph be for him Though youth and law forbad them?
602Shall he seize On Rome''s chief honours ne''er to be resigned?
602Shall men have fear of tombs and dread to move The dust of those who should be with the gods?
602Shall scorching heat usurp the temperate air And fields refuse their timely fruit?
602Shall she not condemn Those who ne''er sought her favours?
602Shall some barbarian earth or lowly grave Enclose thee perishing?
602Shall the only king Who failed Emathia, while the fates yet hid Their favouring voices, brave the victor''s power, And join with thine his fortune?
602Shall they shrink from blood, They from the sword recoil?
602Shall thus the tyrant''s fall Just at our hands, become a Pharian crime, Reft of example?
602Shall unknown nations, touched by western strife, And monarchs born beneath another clime Brave the dividing seas to join the war?
602Shalt thou dare To stir Pharsalia''s ashes and to call War to thy kingdom?
602So he spake E''en at such time in accents of command, For how could Caesar else?
602So long shall Caesar plunge the world in war?
602Still stands our country mistress of the world, Or are we fallen, Rome with Magnus''death Rapt to the shades?"
602Swift into the wave He leaps and cries,"Where, brother, is our sire?
602Sworn to meet the sword Why, lingering, fall we thus?
602The streams Flow mixed with poison?
602Then Brutus to the pilot of his ship:"Dost suffer them to range the wider deep, Contending with the foe in naval skill?
602Then thus, with broken sighs the Vision spake:"What seek ye, men of Rome?
602These are at peace; but, Mars, why art thou bent On kindling thus the Scorpion, his tail Portending evil and his claws aflame?
602Think you your dastard flight shall give me pause?
602This alone Thou hast, accursed one, which men can see Unharmed; for who upon that gaping mouth Looked and could dread?
602Thou forbad''st me share Thy risks Thessalian; dost again command That I should part from thee?
602Thou only?
602Thou wert our leader for the civil war: Mid Scythia''s peoples dost thou bruit abroad Wounds and disasters which are ours alone?
602To unknown risks Art thou commanded?
602To whom who met her glance, Was death permitted?
602Too little for the war Is our destruction?
602Trust to the sword the fortunes of the world?
602Was none of all thy friends Deserving held to join his fate with thine?
602Was this forsooth the object of thy toil O''er lands and oceans, that without thy ken He should not perish?
602Was''t strange that peoples whom their latest day Of happy life awaited( if their minds Foreknew the doom) should tremble with affright?
602Were these humble lives Left here unguarded while thy limbs were given, Unsought for, to be scattered by the storm?
602Were yet the stars in doubt on Magnus''fate Not yet decreed, and did the gods yet shrink From that, the greatest crime?
602What availed, Murrus, the lance by which thou didst transfix A Basilisk?
602What boots it us that by an army''s blood The Rhine and Rhone and all the northern lands Thou hast subdued?
602What conquests now remain, What wars not civil can my kinsman wage?"
602What cottage homes their joys, what fields their fruit Shall to our veterans yield?
602What end shall be Of arms and armies?
602What furies didst thou call, What powers of madness and what Stygian Kings Whelmed in th''abyss of hell?
602What general had not feared at such revolt?
602What grievous fate Shall I call down upon thee?
602What happier chance Could favouring gods afford thee?
602What joy for Caesar, if the tidings come That such a citizen has joined the war?
602What mausoleum were for such a chief A fitting monument?
602What more had dared, With Magnus welcomed, the Lagean house?
602What power had all the ills Possessed upon him?
602What profits it through all these wicked years That thou hast lived untainted?
602What rampart had restrained them as they rushed To seize the prize for wickedness and war And learn the price of guilt?
602What shall be enough If Rome suffice not?
602What spirit that knows the secrets of the world And things to come, here condescends to dwell, Divine, omnipotent?
602What though the flood Of swollen Ganges were across my path?
602When fled The Senate trembling, and when Rome was ours What homes or temples did we spoil?
602When pledged to them Was the Tarpeian rock, for victory won, And all the spoils of Rome, by Caesar''s word, Shall camps suffice them?
602When shall the harvest of thy fields arise Free from their purple stain?
602When stars and sky fall headlong, and when earth Slips from her base, who sits with folded hands?
602Whence comes this labour on the gods, compelled To hearken to the magic chant and spells, Nor daring to despise them?
602Whence shalt thou The poor man''s happiness of sleep regain?
602Whence this lust for crime?
602Whence, citizens, this rage, this boundless lust To sate barbarians with the blood of Rome?
602Where finds the piteous destiny of the realm Rome with herself at peace?
602Where is the land That hath not seen my trophies?
602Where now hath fled The teeming life that once Italia knew?
602Where shall the weary soldier find his rest?
602Where thy trust in Fate, Thy fervour where?
602Wherefore did I we d To bring thee misery?
602Wherefore with thy sword Dost stab our breasts?
602Whether in arms and freedom I should wish To perish, rather than endure a king?
602Which of the gods Has left heaven''s light in this dark cave to hide?
602Who has strength To gaze unawed upon a toppling world?
602Who hopes for aid from me, By fates adverse compelled?"
602Who in such mighty armament had thought A routed army sailed upon the main Thronging the sea with keels?
602Who shall blame Antonius for the madness of his love, When Caesar''s haughty breast drew in the flame?
602Who shall give the cause?
602Who weighs the cause?
602Who would fear for self Should ocean rise and whelm the mountain tops, And sun and sky descend upon the earth In universal chaos?
602Whoe''er had thought A scorpion had strength o''er death or fate?
602Whom dost thou dread, Madman, what punishment for such a crime, For which thy fame by rumour trumpet- tongued Has been sent down to ages?
602Why alone Should this our country please thee in thy fall?
602Why beat thy breast?
602Why bringst thou here the burden of thy fates, Pharsalia''s curse?
602Why desert This reeking plain?
602Why did he draw His separate sword, and in the toil that''s ours Mingle his weapons?
602Why does Orion''s sword too brightly shine?
602Why dost thou keep From Caesar''s throat the swords of all the world?
602Why doth it please you not yet more to earn Than life and pardon?
602Why fear these titles, why this chieftain''s strength?
602Why further stay thee?
602Why further, then, Seek we our deities?
602Why hither turn''st thou now Thy rapid march?
602Why laws and rights Sanctioned by all the annals designate With consular titles?
602Why leavest thou then His standards helpless?"
602Why planets leave their paths and through the void Thus journey on obscure?
602Why plunge in novel crime To settle which of them shall rule in Rome?
602Why should men die who wish to bear the yoke And shrink not from the tyranny to come?
602Why spoil delight by mutilating thus, The head of Marius?
602Why wage campaigns that send no laurels home?
602Why with darts, Madmen, assail him and with slender shafts,''Gainst which his life is proof?
602Why, madman, weep?
602Why, with thoughtless hand Confine his shade within the narrow bounds Of this poor sepulchre?
602Will Magnus say That pirates only till the fields alight?
602Will you ask upon your knees That Caesar deign to treat his slaves alike, And spare, forsooth, like yours, your leaders''lives?
602With incessant prayers Why weary heaven?
602Yet for my grief What boots or monument or ordered pomp?
602Yet he curbed His anger, thinking,"Wilt thou then to Rome And peaceful scenes, degenerate?
602Yet not all is said: For so to noxious humours fire consumes Our fleshly frame; but on the funeral pyre What bones have perished?
602Yet to escape All ills of earth, the crash of war-- what god Can give thee such a boon, but death alone?
602You ask,''Why follow Magnus?
602and complain''st Thy vengeance perished and the conquered chief Snatched from thy haughty hand?
602and have silent threats Prevailed, or piety unseen received So great a guerdon?
602and shall the Nile And barbarous Memphis and th''effeminate crew That throngs Pelusian Canopus raise Its thoughts to such an enterprise?
602and thou rush on Heedless of guilt, through right and through unright, Nor learn that men may lay their arms aside Yet bear to live?
602and what lies beyond?
602and whither hence Bear ye my standards?
602bear the touch of man, And at his bidding deigns to lift the veil?
602by those So soon to perish, shall the sign be asked, Their own, their country''s doom?
602does your cruelty withhold my fate?
602exclaimed,"Bent on my downfall have they sought me thus, Here in this puny skiff in such a sea?
602he cried,"Me only in this throng?
602her husbands slain Cornelia ne''er enclose within the tomb, Nor shed the tear beside the urn that holds The ashes of the loved?
602is it indeed enough To crown the war, that Fortune and the deep Have cast thee on our shores?
602on both sides Brothers forbid the weapon to be hurled?
602or because he fled Rhine''s icy torrent and the shifting pools He calls an ocean?
602or unchallenged sought Britannia''s cliffs; then turned his back in flight?
602shall a lighter blow Keep Magnus down, whose thousand chiefs and ships Still plough the billows; by defeat his strength Not whelmed but scattered?
602shall my victory rob thee of the peace I gave thee by my flight?
602shalt thou A Roman soldier, while thy blade yet reeks From Magnus''slaughter, play the second part To this base varlet of the Pharian king?
602what mansion wall, What temple of the gods, would feel no fear When Caesar called for entrance?
602when the Fates With great Camillus''and Metellus''names Might place thine own, dost thou prefer to rank With Marius and Cinna?
9061''See,''they would have said( would they not?
9061''When have you ever dispensed State funds in such a way as to benefit any one?''
9061( 2) Why did not Aeschines protest at the time?
9061( another?
9061( of Sphettus?
9061: almost,''do you then suggest that we should_ earn_ our money?''
9061And am I, in spite of this law of nature, to be judged and examined to- day by the standard of those who were before me?
9061And do you then ask me for what merits I count myself worthy to receive honour?
9061And how will that improve our position?
9061And if so, do you need to seek any further for the cause of the total ruin of the city''s fortunes?
9061And this being so, what epithet was it fitting or just that Ctesiphon should apply to my actions?
9061And what are those duties?
9061And what is the difference?
9061And what is this?
9061And what is this?
9061And what of Aristratus[n] at Sicyon?
9061And wherein lies the difference?
9061And who can guarantee that?
9061And who was it that spoke and moved resolutions and acted for the city, and gave himself up unsparingly to the business of the State?
9061And why?
9061And why?
9061Are they not outcasts?
9061Are we to call you, Aeschines, the enemy of the State, or of myself?
9061Are we to cancel them out,[n] rather than provide that they shall be remembered for all time?
9061Before what authority was it served?
9061But are you like them, Aeschines?
9061But if he treats us collectively in this outrageous fashion, what do you think he will do, when he has become master of each of us separately?
9061But if it was right that one should arise to prevent it, for whom could the task be more fitting than for the people of Athens?
9061But what if the oath that we swore, and the terms upon which we made the Peace, stand inscribed for our eyes to see?
9061But what is meant by a deceiver of the city?
9061But what is the condition of Thessaly?
9061But what ought I to have done?
9061But what should I have done?
9061But when once it is dissolved, what shall we do if he marches against the Chersonese?
9061But when the envoys arrive in Thebes, how do I advise that they should handle the matter?
9061But who was it that went to the rescue of the Byzantines, and saved them?
9061But why should one who has often been tried, but has never been convicted of crime, deserve to incur criticism any the more on that account?
9061But would you inquire honestly wherein my fortifications consist?
9061Can I then say that one who is erecting such engines of war as these against the city is at peace with you?
9061Can it then be, that there are men among us here who are trying to bring about the very thing that Philip would pray Heaven for?
9061Did any mockery or ridicule ensue, such as Aeschines said must follow on the present occasion, if I were crowned?
9061Do any of his critics care about the Hellenes who live in Asia?
9061Do you bid me tell you, and will you not be angry if I do so?
9061Do you imagine that they do not know who you are?
9061Do you instruct us now about things that are past?
9061Do you tell us this_ now_?
9061Does he not hold that district with garrisons and mercenaries?
9061Does he not send one body of mercenaries to Porthmus, to expel the popular party of Eretria, and another to Oreus, to set up Philistides as tyrant?
9061Does he not write expressly in his letters,''I am at peace with those who choose to obey me''?
9061Does not Philip at this moment occupy the city of the Cardians, and avow it openly?
9061For all saw that he, the ally of the Byzantines, was besieging them-- what could be more shameful or revolting?
9061For only lately-- lately, do I say?
9061For the herald asked the question, Aeschines,''Who wishes to speak?''
9061For what could possibly have been your object in summoning them at that moment?
9061For what else was at my disposal?
9061For what man, Hellene or foreigner, has not tasted abundance of evil at this present time?
9061For what would it matter to a man of Zeleia, that he might have no share in the public life of Athens?
9061For when a man charges me-- I call Heaven and Earth to witness!--with philippizing, what will he not say?
9061Had he not to choose the best of the plans which suggested themselves and were feasible?
9061Had you not these men here to propose it?
9061Has any obstruction, any untoward event occurred?
9061How came you to be thought worthy of it?
9061How can this be?
9061How could it be otherwise-- against his own country?
9061How did you acquire it?
9061How should_ you_ discern what is noble and what is not?
9061I wish to put to_ you_ the question,''What are we to_ say_?''
9061If they speak thus to us, what will be our answer?
9061In Heaven''s name, what must the perfect scoundrel, the really heaven- detested, malignant being be like?
9061Is anything being done which seems advantageous to the city?
9061Is it better to resist him here, and to allow the war to come into Attica, or to provide something to keep him busy there?
9061Is it not Aeschines?
9061Is it not one who does not say what he thinks?
9061Is it not upon such a man as this?
9061It can hardly be taken( as seems to be intended by Butcher) as Demosthenes''reply to the question,''Or some other power?''
9061Less do I say?
9061Men of Athens, do you think of Aeschines as the hireling or as the guest- friend of Alexander?
9061Must he not be a man like this?
9061On what occasions, then, do your spirit and your brilliancy show themselves?
9061Or shall we still say that those who urge resistance are bringing about war?
9061Or with a view to war?
9061Shall I call myself, as you would call me by way of abuse and disparagement,_ Battalus_?
9061Shall I tell how Phormio, the ship''s piper, the slave of Dion of Phrearrii, raised her up out of this noble profession?
9061Should I have guarded the interests of the city in petty details, and sold them wholesale, as my opponents did?
9061Such was one of the public appearances of this fine fellow, and such its character-- so like the acts with which he charges me, is it not?
9061The deed itself you would never have done, I know full well; for had you desired to do it, what was there to hinder you?
9061The spirit of one who would propose things unworthy of this people?
9061Under what circumstances, then, should a politician and an orator show passion?
9061Upon whom does the herald justly pronounce the curse?
9061Was I to propose_ not_ to introduce those who had come for the express purpose of speaking with you?
9061Was it fit that one of the Hellenes should arise to prevent it, or not?
9061Was it not that which he saw applied by the People, and by juries on their oath, and ratified by Truth in the judgement of all men?
9061Was it not to provide for the corn- trade, and to ensure that it should pass along a continuously friendly coast all the way to the Peiraeus?
9061Was it not to take away the greatest of the resources which the enemy possessed, and to add what was lacking to those of the city?
9061Was it with a view to peace?
9061Was this what this hireling promised you?
9061Was this, think you, but a trifling assistance which I rendered to the poor among you?
9061Were these the hopes, on the strength of which you made the Peace?
9061Were you not free so to act?
9061What alliance was there, what course of action, to which I ought, by preference, to have guided my countrymen?
9061What assistance, what fresh access of goodwill or fame?
9061What department of our home affairs, or our relations with Hellenic and foreign states, over which you have presided, has shown any improvement?
9061What did this mean, men of Athens?
9061What diplomatic or administrative action of yours has brought new dignity to the city?
9061What do they matter to Athens?''
9061What do you think these impious men would then have done?
9061What have you or yours to do with virtue?
9061What if the winds make it impossible?
9061What is_ then_ the meaning of the statement that we ought either to go to war or to keep the Peace?
9061What more brutal, more damnable misrepresentation can be conceived?
9061What pecuniary assistance have you ever given, as a good and generous fellow citizen,[n] either to rich or poor?
9061What right have_ you_ to mention culture anywhere?
9061What shall we say, Athenians?
9061What then does he do?
9061What then followed-- and not after a long interval, but immediately?
9061What then is his design and object in seizing Elateia?
9061What was it fitting for the city to do, Aeschines, when she saw Philip establishing for himself a despotic sway over the Hellenes?
9061What was this spirit?
9061What?
9061What?
9061What?
9061What?
9061What?
9061What?
9061When?
9061Where and how did you get your qualification to do so?
9061Where are the proofs of these things?
9061Where are the walls that you have repaired?
9061Where are your cavalry?
9061Where are your dockyards?
9061Where are your munitions of war?
9061Where are your ships?
9061Where in the world_ is_ your sphere of usefulness?
9061Where?
9061Which of these alternatives is the more honourable?
9061Which were the destroyers of their country?
9061While we are still safe, with our great city, our vast resources, our noble name, what are we to do?
9061Who is most to blame for the disasters that have taken place?
9061Who put such pretexts at his disposal?
9061Who then served the summons upon us?
9061Who was it that helped him to prepare such a case?
9061Who was it that prevented the Hellespont from falling into other hands at that time?
9061Who would not congratulate himself with good reason on such things, and bless his own fortune?
9061Why do we delay?
9061Why do you invent false arguments?
9061Why do you not take hellebore[n] to cure you?
9061Why do you tell them_ now_, what course they ought to have taken?
9061Why is it then that, though he complains of others, he has not mentioned my own actions?
9061Why is it then, that he behaves as he does to all others, and so differently to you?
9061Why is it those who advise you not to allow it, not to make these sacrifices, that they accuse, and say that_ they_ will be the cause of the war?
9061Why then should you make these charges against me, any more than I against you?
9061Why then, accursed man, do you revile_ me_, for our failure, in words which I pray the gods to turn upon the heads of you and yours?
9061Why trouble us then with your embassies and your accusations?''
9061Why, wretched man, do you lay this dishonest charge?
9061Will money drop from the sky?
9061Will you not cover the sea with warships, men of Athens?
9061Will you not rise from your seats and go instantly to the Peiraeus and launch your vessels?''
9061With what greater crime can one charge a man who is an orator, than that of saying one thing and thinking another?
9061Would they not have declared that the states had been surrendered?
9061[ Is he not master of Thermopylae, and of the passes which lead into Hellenic territory?
9061[ You know it yourselves; for why should I accuse you explicitly on every point?
9061[ n] And let no one ask,''What do these things amount to?
9061[ n]] And what counsel?
9061_ I_ cast in your teeth your guest- friendship with Alexander?
9061and you were there, when the auditors brought me before them, and did not accuse me?
9061nor''Who wishes to guarantee the future?''
9061not''Who wishes to bring accusations about the past?''
9061or any other orator of the present day?
9061or that all who act in loyalty should have a share in the honours and the kindness which our fellow citizens dispense?
9061or to order the lessee of the theatre not to assign them seats?
9061or your brother?
9061said he,''when you actually have the Thebans in the island, do you debate what you are to do with them, and how you are to act?
9061that they had been driven away, when they wished to be on your side?
9061what of Perillus[n] at Megara?
9061which betrayed the cavalry, through whose betrayal Olynthus perished?
9061{ 107} Would the wealthy have spent but a trifling sum to avoid doing their duty fairly?
9061{ 121} Do you hear, Aeschines, the plain words of the law?
9061{ 140} Did he then abstain from speaking, as he abstained from proposing any motion, when any mischief was to be done?
9061{ 142} Why have I uttered this imprecation with such vehemence and earnestness?
9061{ 149}* How then did he manage this?
9061{ 15} In God''s name, is there a man in his senses who would judge by words, and not by facts, whether another was at peace or at war with him?
9061{ 16} But what was he doing, in acting thus?
9061{ 177} What then must you do?
9061{ 180} But now, Aeschines, how would you have me describe your part, and how mine, that day?
9061{ 18} Now what are the things which would imperil your safety, if anything should happen?
9061{ 194} But if the thunderbolt[ or the storm] which fell has proved too mighty, not only for us, but for all the other Hellenes, what are we to do?
9061{ 20} Now what was it that helped him, and enabled him to find in you his almost willing dupes?
9061{ 220}''Well,''some one may say,''did_ you_ so excel them in force and boldness, as to do everything yourself?''
9061{ 231} Can such achievements, think you, be reckoned up like counters?
9061{ 236} But I who was set to oppose him-- for this inquiry too it is just to make-- what had I under my control?
9061{ 23} Now whenever any one rises to speak, you always put to him the question''What are we to do?''
9061{ 241} What would they have said?
9061{ 243} Where is the profit to your country from your cleverness?
9061{ 245} Do you then require those places at_ my_ hands?
9061{ 25} Why mention the others?
9061{ 264} But when a man plucks up courage at the death of a thousand of his fellow citizens, what does he deserve to suffer at the hands of the living?
9061{ 27} Are not the cities of Euboea even now ruled by tyrants, and that in an island that is neighbour to Thebes and Athens?
9061{ 282} You have not done so either?
9061{ 283} And after this do you open your mouth, or dare to look this audience in the face?
9061{ 290} Do you hear, Aeschines[ in these very lines],''Tis God''s alone from failure free to live''?
9061{ 294} But why do I rebuke him for this, when he has made other lying charges against me, which are more outrageous by far?
9061{ 301} What was the duty of a loyal citizen-- one who was acting with all forethought and zeal and uprightness for his country''s good?
9061{ 311} For what alliance has the city gained by negotiations of yours?
9061{ 318} Do you say then, that I am in no way like them?
9061{ 32} And in spite of this, is there any degree of insolence to which he does not proceed?
9061{ 33} Does he not write to the Thessalians to prescribe the constitution under which they are to live?
9061{ 35} And of our own possessions, to pass by all the rest, is not Cardia, the greatest city in the Chersonese, in his hands?
9061{ 35} What then were the statements uttered by him that day, in consequence of which all was lost?
9061{ 36} What then is the cause of these things?
9061{ 38} Now there are some who imagine that they confute a speaker, as soon as they have asked him the question,''What then are we to do?''
9061{ 39} Where are such sentiments now?
9061{ 42} What then is the record?
9061{ 46} But what is it?
9061{ 46} What then, as sensible men, must you do?
9061{ 51} When shall we ever be willing, men of Athens, to do our duty?
9061{ 53} What is the result?
9061{ 59} And why go through the mass of the instances?
9061{ 59} But what shall we say, when his attack is made directly upon ourselves?
9061{ 63} Should she, Aeschines, have sacrificed her pride and her own dignity?
9061{ 64} Have not the Phocians, and Thermopylae, and the Thracian seaboard-- Doriscus, Serrhium, Cersobleptes himself-- been taken from you?
9061{ 68} Aye, and it is shameful to exclaim after the event,''Why, who would have expected this?
9061{ 69} But how does that help them now?
9061{ 85} Now is any of you aware of any discredit that attached itself to the city owing to this decree?
9303Invocavi,inquit,"deos", statuta in illo saxo deos nominasti, et miraris si te iterum deici volunt?
9303What do you mean,I said,"by inflicting this disease of yours upon us?
9303Why, then, are you so ill- clad?

9303Are you to be satisfied with this?
9303Are your lyre and its strings and the austere quill that runs over them yet in force?
9303As for the tribes of earth, this mortal race, and the death of multitudes all doomed to pass away, why bewail them?
9303Beauty?
9303But could the work have concluded on such a note of gloom as the death of the staunchest champion of the republic?
9303But what does''t avail, If in bloodfetching lines others do rail, And vomit viperous poison in my name, Such as the sun themselves to own do shame?

9303Caesar''s superior you may Cato call: Was he so great as Otho in his fall?
9303Calpurnius Siculus; date, p. 151. Who was he?
9303Canst thou proclaim such sacrifice a sin?
9303Did we bear our arms like cowards, or screen our throats from death?
9303Dost fear him so Who takes his title to be feared from thee?
9303Doth_ mercy_ now demand a maiden''s blood?
9303Einsiedeln fragments; was the author Calpurnius Piso?
9303For what could Galba, what Virginius find, In the dire annals of that bloody reign, Which called for vengeance in a louder strain?
9303Has he not slain even his mother?
9303He was the first to speak:''Whence come ye?''
9303His defence hardly answers the question,''Why publish so many?''
9303How can it answer to introduce the spirit of the age into the temple- service and infer what the gods like from this sinful pampered flesh of ours?
9303How died they?
9303How long wilt thou delay the advancing dead?
9303How may I find strength to endure?
9303How old, you ask, and how generous?

9303In giving back Caietanus his IOU''s, Polycharmus, do you think you are giving him 100,000 sesterces?
9303In the same bitter spirit, Umbricius is made to cry: quid Romae faciam?
9303Is Meliboeus speaking in person and quoting his own poem?
9303Is it a mere coincidence, a plagiarism, or a direct allusion?
9303Is it genuine?
9303Is it hard to slay Cato?
9303Is that slave more to thee than I, a king?
9303Knowest thou not that the death I have deserved waits me at my father''s hand?
9303Leaving such barren and unprofitable ground, what can we say of the plays themselves?
9303Martial''s comment is inimitable: si tibi Mistyllos cocus, Aemiliane, vocatur, dicatur quare non Taratalla mihi?
9303Nor praise my patron''s undeserving rhymes, Nor yet comply with him nor with his times?

9303Where then will the departed spirit dwell?
9303Whether the pure intent makes righteousness, Or virtue needs the warrant of success?
9303Whether to live a slave Is better, or to fill a soldier''s grave?
9303Whether tyrannic force can hurt the good, Or the brave heart need quail at Fortune''s mood?

9303which means nothing more than''What is the good of study unless a man brings out what he has in him?''
9303why stream no tears from thine eyes?
9303why,''the poet concludes,''did not Domitian devote himself entirely to such trifles as these?''
1735''And in becoming you participate through the bodily senses, and in being, by thought and the mind?''
1735--and I should like to know, Theaetetus, how we can possibly answer the younker''s question?
1735--do you know what sort of object he would single out in reply, and what answer he would make to the enquirer?
1735And am I not contradicting myself at this moment, in speaking either in the singular or the plural of that to which I deny both plurality and unity?
1735And are not''knowing''and''being known''active and passive?
1735And can that be a true theory of the history of philosophy which, in Hegel''s own language,''does not allow the individual to have his right''?
1735And is not''being''known?
1735And the real''is,''and the not- real''is not''?
1735And there is another part which is certainly not less ridiculous, but being a trade in learning must be called by some name germane to the matter?
1735And therefore let us try another track in our pursuit of him: You are aware that there are certain menial occupations which have names among servants?
1735And we rejoin: Does not the soul know?
1735And what is the name?
1735And what line of distinction can there possibly be greater than that which divides ignorance from knowledge?
1735And what more do we want?''
1735And where does the danger lie?
1735And who are the ministers of the purification?
1735And who are these last?
1735And you mean by the word''participation''a power of doing or suffering?
1735And, indeed, how can we imagine that perfect being is a mere everlasting form, devoid of motion and soul?
1735Are there two more kinds to be added to the three others?
1735Are we not''seeking the living among the dead''and dignifying a mere logical skeleton with the name of philosophy and almost of God?
1735But can he know all things?
1735But could the Organon of Aristotle ever have been written unless the Sophist and Statesman had preceded?
1735But how can anything be an appearance only?
1735But how can there be anything which neither rests nor moves?
1735But how can there be two names when there is nothing but one?
1735But how could philosophy explain the connexion of ideas, how justify the passing of them into one another?
1735But is it really true that the part has no meaning when separated from the whole, or that knowledge to be knowledge at all must be universal?
1735But is there any meaning in reintroducing the forms of the old logic?
1735But ought we to give him up?
1735Can any one say or think that falsehood really exists, and avoid being caught in a contradiction?
1735Can we imagine that being is devoid of life and mind, and exists in awful unmeaningness an everlasting fixture?
1735Do all abstractions shine only by the reflected light of other abstractions?
1735Do not our household servants talk of sifting, straining, winnowing?
1735Do not persons become ideas, and is there any distinction between them?
1735Do we not make one house by the art of building, and another by the art of drawing, which is a sort of dream created by man for those who are awake?
1735Do you agree with our recent definition?
1735Do you see his point, Theaetetus?
1735Do you understand?
1735Do you, Theaetetus, still feel any doubt of this?
1735Does he who affirms this mean to say that motion is rest, or rest motion?
1735Does not the very number of them imply that the nature of his art is not understood?
1735For he who would imitate you would surely know you and your figure?
1735Have we not unearthed the Sophist?
1735How are we to understand the word"are"?
1735How then can he dispute satisfactorily with any one who knows?
1735How will you maintain your ground against him?
1735If not- being is inconceivable, how can not- being be refuted?
1735In a word, is not the art of disputation a power of disputing about all things?
1735Is being, then, one, because the parts of being are one, or shall we say that being is not a whole?
1735Is he the philosopher or the Sophist?
1735Is he the statesman or the popular orator?
1735Is not that true?
1735Is not the reconciliation of mind and body a necessity, not only of speculation but of practical life?
1735Is there any doubt, after what has been said, that he is to be located in one of the divisions of children''s play?
1735Is this possible?
1735May I not say with confidence that not- being has an assured existence, and a nature of its own?
1735May they not also find a nearer explanation in their relation to phenomena?
1735May we not call these''appearances,''since they appear only and are not really like?
1735May we not say that motion is other than the other, having been also proved by us to be other than the same and other than rest?
1735Not- being can not be attributed to any being; for how can any being be wholly abstracted from being?
1735Or are some things communicable and others not?--Which of these alternatives, Theaetetus, will they prefer?
1735Or is art required in order to do so?
1735Or is not the very opposite true?
1735Or shall we gather all into one class of things communicable with one another?
1735Or shall we say that being is not a whole at all?
1735Or shall we say that they are created by a divine reason and a knowledge which comes from God?
1735Or should we consider being and other to be two names of the same class?
1735Real or not real?
1735SOCRATES: But how can any one who is ignorant dispute in a rational manner against him who knows?
1735SOCRATES: Is he not rather a god, Theodorus, who comes to us in the disguise of a stranger?
1735STRANGER: A resemblance, then, is not really real, if, as you say, not true?
1735STRANGER: Again, false opinion is that form of opinion which thinks the opposite of the truth:--You would assent?
1735STRANGER: Again, motion is other than the same?
1735STRANGER: Again, of the various kinds of ignorance, may not instruction be rightly said to be the remedy?
1735STRANGER: Again; how can that which is not a whole have any quantity?
1735STRANGER: And a little while ago I said that not- being is unutterable, unspeakable, indescribable: do you follow?
1735STRANGER: And about what does he profess that he teaches men to dispute?
1735STRANGER: And all number is to be reckoned among things which are?
1735STRANGER: And all the arts which were just now mentioned are characterized by this power of producing?
1735STRANGER: And are we not now in as great a difficulty about being?
1735STRANGER: And do they always fail in their attempt to be thought just, when they are not?
1735STRANGER: And do they not acknowledge this to be a body having a soul?
1735STRANGER: And do they not profess to make men able to dispute about law and about politics in general?
1735STRANGER: And do they not say that one soul is just, and another unjust, and that one soul is wise, and another foolish?
1735STRANGER: And do you mean this something to be some other true thing, or what do you mean?
1735STRANGER: And does he not also teach others the art of disputation?
1735STRANGER: And does not false opinion also think that things which most certainly exist do not exist at all?
1735STRANGER: And equally irrational to admit that a name is anything?
1735STRANGER: And has not this, as you were saying, as real an existence as any other class?
1735STRANGER: And here, again, is falsehood?
1735STRANGER: And in the case of the body are there not two arts which have to do with the two bodily states?
1735STRANGER: And in using the singular verb, did I not speak of not- being as one?
1735STRANGER: And is being the same as one, and do you apply two names to the same thing?
1735STRANGER: And is deformity anything but the want of measure, which is always unsightly?
1735STRANGER: And is knowing and being known doing or suffering, or both, or is the one doing and the other suffering, or has neither any share in either?
1735STRANGER: And is not that part of exchange which takes place in the city, being about half of the whole, termed retailing?
1735STRANGER: And is not the case the same with the parts of the other, which is also one?
1735STRANGER: And is there any more artistic or graceful form of jest than imitation?
1735STRANGER: And may not conquest be again subdivided?
1735STRANGER: And may there not be supposed to be an imitative art of reasoning?
1735STRANGER: And may we not fairly call the sort of art, which produces an appearance and not an image, phantastic art?
1735STRANGER: And now, do we seem to have gained a fair notion of being?
1735STRANGER: And now, if we suppose that all things have the power of communion with one another-- what will follow?
1735STRANGER: And of arts there are two kinds?
1735STRANGER: And of persuasion, there may be said to be two kinds?
1735STRANGER: And of swimming animals, one class lives on the wing and the other in the water?
1735STRANGER: And of the art of instruction, shall we say that there is one or many kinds?
1735STRANGER: And purification was to leave the good and to cast out whatever is bad?
1735STRANGER: And shall we call our new friend unskilled, or a thorough master of his craft?
1735STRANGER: And shall we call the other a fifth class?
1735STRANGER: And shall we further speak of this latter class as having one or two divisions?
1735STRANGER: And that which being other is also like, may we not fairly call a likeness or image?
1735STRANGER: And that which exchanges the goods of one city for those of another by selling and buying is the exchange of the merchant?
1735STRANGER: And the art of dialectic would be attributed by you only to the philosopher pure and true?
1735STRANGER: And the false says what is other than true?
1735STRANGER: And the not true is that which is the opposite of the true?
1735STRANGER: And the not- great may be said to exist, equally with the great?
1735STRANGER: And the other is always relative to other?
1735STRANGER: And there is a private sort of controversy, which is cut up into questions and answers, and this is commonly called disputation?
1735STRANGER: And there is something which you call''being''?
1735STRANGER: And therefore speaks of things which are not as if they were?
1735STRANGER: And therefore this first kind of capture may be called by us capture with enclosures, or something of that sort?
1735STRANGER: And therefore, to their disciples, they appear to be all- wise?
1735STRANGER: And they dispute about all things?
1735STRANGER: And this sort of hunting may be further divided also into two principal kinds?
1735STRANGER: And we have already admitted, in what preceded, that the Sophist was lurking in one of the divisions of the likeness- making art?
1735STRANGER: And we know that there exists in speech... THEAETETUS: What exists?
1735STRANGER: And what about the assertors of the oneness of the all-- must we not endeavour to ascertain from them what they mean by''being''?
1735STRANGER: And what do you say of the visible things in heaven and earth, and the like?
1735STRANGER: And what is ignorance but the aberration of a mind which is bent on truth, and in which the process of understanding is perverted?
1735STRANGER: And what is the name?
1735STRANGER: And what is the quality of each of these two sentences?
1735STRANGER: And what shall we call the other?
1735STRANGER: And what shall we say of human art?
1735STRANGER: And what would you say of the figure or form of justice or of virtue in general?
1735STRANGER: And when a man says that he knows all things, and can teach them to another at a small cost, and in a short time, is not that a jest?
1735STRANGER: And when opinion is presented, not simply, but in some form of sense, would you not call it imagination?
1735STRANGER: And when the war is one of words, it may be termed controversy?
1735STRANGER: And when you admit that both or either of them are, do you mean to say that both or either of them are in motion?
1735STRANGER: And where shall I begin the perilous enterprise?
1735STRANGER: And where there is insolence and injustice and cowardice, is not chastisement the art which is most required?
1735STRANGER: And who are the ministers of this art?
1735STRANGER: And who is the maker of the longer speeches?
1735STRANGER: And would they say that the whole is other than the one that is, or the same with it?
1735STRANGER: And would they say that they are corporeal?
1735STRANGER: And would you not call by the same name him who buys up knowledge and goes about from city to city exchanging his wares for money?
1735STRANGER: And yet they must all be akin?
1735STRANGER: And yet you would say that both and either of them equally are?
1735STRANGER: And you mean by true that which really is?
1735STRANGER: And you remember that we subdivided the swimming and left the land animals, saying that there were many kinds of them?
1735STRANGER: And, O heavens, can we ever be made to believe that motion and life and soul and mind are not present with perfect being?
1735STRANGER: And, in the second place, it related to a subject?
1735STRANGER: Any power of doing or suffering in a degree however slight was held by us to be a sufficient definition of being?
1735STRANGER: But are we to conceive that being and the same are identical?
1735STRANGER: But can anything which is, be attributed to that which is not?
1735STRANGER: But does every one know what letters will unite with what?
1735STRANGER: But how can a man either express in words or even conceive in thought things which are not or a thing which is not without number?
1735STRANGER: But perhaps you mean to give the name of''being''to both of them together?
1735STRANGER: But shall we say that has mind and not life?
1735STRANGER: But surely that which may be present or may be absent will be admitted by them to exist?
1735STRANGER: But surely we know that no soul is voluntarily ignorant of anything?
1735STRANGER: But that of which this is the condition can not be absolute unity?
1735STRANGER: But the stream of thought which flows through the lips and is audible is called speech?
1735STRANGER: But then, what is the meaning of these two words,''same''and''other''?
1735STRANGER: But upon this view, is the beautiful a more real and the not- beautiful a less real existence?
1735STRANGER: But would either of them be if not participating in being?
1735STRANGER: But you would agree, if I am not mistaken, that existences are relative as well as absolute?
1735STRANGER: But, on the other hand, when we say''what is not,''do we not attribute unity?
1735STRANGER: Can we find a suitable name for each of them?
1735STRANGER: Can you see how without them mind could exist, or come into existence anywhere?
1735STRANGER: Do we admit that virtue is distinct from vice in the soul?
1735STRANGER: Do you not conceive discord to be a dissolution of kindred elements, originating in some disagreement?
1735STRANGER: Do you not see that when the professor of any art has one name and many kinds of knowledge, there must be something wrong?
1735STRANGER: Do you observe that our scepticism has carried us beyond the range of Parmenides''prohibition?
1735STRANGER: Do you speak advisedly, or are you carried away at the moment by the habit of assenting into giving a hasty answer?
1735STRANGER: Do you think that sameness of condition and mode and subject could ever exist without a principle of rest?
1735STRANGER: Does false opinion think that things which are not are not, or that in a certain sense they are?
1735STRANGER: First there is motion, which we affirm to be absolutely''other''than rest: what else can we say?
1735STRANGER: For which reason twig baskets, casting- nets, nooses, creels, and the like may all be termed''enclosures''?
1735STRANGER: How are we to call it?
1735STRANGER: How do the Sophists make young men believe in their supreme and universal wisdom?
1735STRANGER: How, then, can any one put any faith in me?
1735STRANGER: How?
1735STRANGER: Meaning to say that the soul is something which exists?
1735STRANGER: Nevertheless, we maintain that you may not and ought not to attribute being to not- being?
1735STRANGER: O my friend, do you not see that nothing can exceed our ignorance, and yet we fancy that we are saying something good?
1735STRANGER: Of this merchandise of the soul, may not one part be fairly termed the art of display?
1735STRANGER: Of whom does the sentence speak, and who is the subject?
1735STRANGER: Open force may be called fighting, and secret force may have the general name of hunting?
1735STRANGER: Or do you wish to imply that they are both at rest, when you say that they are?
1735STRANGER: Or shall we say that both inhere in perfect being, but that it has no soul which contains them?
1735STRANGER: Or that being has mind and life and soul, but although endowed with soul remains absolutely unmoved?
1735STRANGER: Or this sentence, again-- THEAETETUS: What sentence?
1735STRANGER: Seeing, then, that all arts are either acquisitive or creative, in which class shall we place the art of the angler?
1735STRANGER: Shall we bind up his name as we did before, making a chain from one end of his genealogy to the other?
1735STRANGER: Shall we regard one as the simple imitator-- the other as the dissembling or ironical imitator?
1735STRANGER: Shall we say that being is one and a whole, because it has the attribute of unity?
1735STRANGER: Shall we say that this has or has not a name?
1735STRANGER: Shall we then be so faint- hearted as to give him up?
1735STRANGER: Some in the singular( ti) you would say is the sign of one, some in the dual( tine) of two, some in the plural( tines) of many?
1735STRANGER: The first question about the angler was, whether he was a skilled artist or unskilled?
1735STRANGER: The plain result is that motion, since it partakes of being, really is and also is not?
1735STRANGER: The true says what is true about you?
1735STRANGER: Then any taking away of evil from the soul may be properly called purification?
1735STRANGER: Then if, as I was saying, there is one art which includes all of them, ought not that art to have one name?
1735STRANGER: Then let them answer this question: One, you say, alone is?
1735STRANGER: Then suppose that we work out some lesser example which will be a pattern of the greater?
1735STRANGER: Then the Sophist has been shown to have a sort of conjectural or apparent knowledge only of all things, which is not the truth?
1735STRANGER: Then the not- beautiful turns out to be the opposition of being to being?
1735STRANGER: Then we are to regard an unintelligent soul as deformed and devoid of symmetry?
1735STRANGER: Then we may without fear contend that motion is other than being?
1735STRANGER: Then we must not attempt to attribute to not- being number either in the singular or plural?
1735STRANGER: Then we shall be right in calling vice a discord and disease of the soul?
1735STRANGER: Then why has the sophistical art such a mysterious power?
1735STRANGER: Then, according to this view, motion is other and also not other?
1735STRANGER: There is some part of the other which is opposed to the beautiful?
1735STRANGER: These then are the two kinds of image- making-- the art of making likenesses, and phantastic or the art of making appearances?
1735STRANGER: Thus far, then, the Sophist and the angler, starting from the art of acquiring, take the same road?
1735STRANGER: To admit of two names, and to affirm that there is nothing but unity, is surely ridiculous?
1735STRANGER: To that which is, may be attributed some other thing which is?
1735STRANGER: To them we say-- You would distinguish essence from generation?
1735STRANGER: Upon this view, again, being, having a defect of being, will become not- being?
1735STRANGER: Very good; and now say, do we venture to utter the forbidden word''not- being''?
1735STRANGER: Was not the sort of imitation of which we spoke just now the imitation of those who know?
1735STRANGER: We were saying of him, if I am not mistaken, that he was a disputer?
1735STRANGER: Well, fair sirs, we say to them, what is this participation, which you assert of both?
1735STRANGER: What art?
1735STRANGER: What is the next step?
1735STRANGER: What is there which is well known and not great, and is yet as susceptible of definition as any larger thing?
1735STRANGER: What name, then, shall be given to the sort of instruction which gets rid of this?
1735STRANGER: What then shall we call it?
1735STRANGER: When I introduced the word''is,''did I not contradict what I said before?
1735STRANGER: When any one says''A man learns,''should you not call this the simplest and least of sentences?
1735STRANGER: When the affirmation or denial takes Place in silence and in the mind only, have you any other name by which to call it but opinion?
1735STRANGER: When we speak of something as not great, does the expression seem to you to imply what is little any more than what is equal?
1735STRANGER: When we speak of things which are not, are we not attributing plurality to not- being?
1735STRANGER: When we were asked to what we were to assign the appellation of not- being, we were in the greatest difficulty:--do you remember?
1735STRANGER: Where, then, is a man to look for help who would have any clear or fixed notion of being in his mind?
1735STRANGER: Whereas being surely has communion with both of them, for both of them are?
1735STRANGER: Who must be you, and can be nobody else?
1735STRANGER: Would you not say that rest and motion are in the most entire opposition to one another?
1735STRANGER: Yes, and the reason, as I should imagine, is that they are supposed to have knowledge of those things about which they dispute?
1735STRANGER: Yet that which has parts may have the attribute of unity in all the parts, and in this way being all and a whole, may be one?
1735STRANGER: Yet they surely both partake of the same and of the other?
1735STRANGER: You heard me say what I have always felt and still feel-- that I have no heart for this argument?
1735STRANGER: You mean by assenting to imply that he who says something must say some one thing?
1735STRANGER: You mean to say that false opinion thinks what is not?
1735STRANGER: You mean to say, not in a true sense?
1735STRANGER: You remember our division of hunting, into hunting after swimming animals and land animals?
1735Shall I say an angler?
1735Shall I tell you what we must do?
1735Shall we assume( 1) that being and rest and motion, and all other things, are incommunicable with one another?
1735THEAETETUS: Again I ask, What do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: All things?
1735THEAETETUS: And in what other way can it contain them?
1735THEAETETUS: And is there not some truth in what they say?
1735THEAETETUS: And what is the name of the art?
1735THEAETETUS: And what is the question at issue about names?
1735THEAETETUS: And what is their answer?
1735THEAETETUS: And why?
1735THEAETETUS: But are tame animals ever hunted?
1735THEAETETUS: But are you sure, Stranger, that this will be quite so acceptable to the rest of the company as Socrates imagines?
1735THEAETETUS: But how can he, Stranger?
1735THEAETETUS: For what reason?
1735THEAETETUS: How are we to distinguish the two?
1735THEAETETUS: How can they?
1735THEAETETUS: How do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: How do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: How do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: How indeed?
1735THEAETETUS: How is that possible?
1735THEAETETUS: How is that?
1735THEAETETUS: How is that?
1735THEAETETUS: How is that?
1735THEAETETUS: How shall we get it out of them?
1735THEAETETUS: How shall we make the division?
1735THEAETETUS: How so?
1735THEAETETUS: How so?
1735THEAETETUS: How so?
1735THEAETETUS: How so?
1735THEAETETUS: How so?
1735THEAETETUS: How the Sophist?
1735THEAETETUS: How would you make the division?
1735THEAETETUS: How, Stranger, can I describe an image except as something fashioned in the likeness of the true?
1735THEAETETUS: How?
1735THEAETETUS: How?
1735THEAETETUS: How?
1735THEAETETUS: How?
1735THEAETETUS: How?
1735THEAETETUS: I suppose that you are referring to the precepts of Protagoras about wrestling and the other arts?
1735THEAETETUS: In what respect?
1735THEAETETUS: In what way are they related?
1735THEAETETUS: In what way?
1735THEAETETUS: In what?
1735THEAETETUS: Is not this always the aim of imitation?
1735THEAETETUS: May I ask to what you are referring?
1735THEAETETUS: Of what are they to be patterns, and what are we going to do with them all?
1735THEAETETUS: Of what are you speaking?
1735THEAETETUS: To what are you alluding?
1735THEAETETUS: To what are you referring?
1735THEAETETUS: To what do you refer?
1735THEAETETUS: To what do you refer?
1735THEAETETUS: Very likely; but will you tell me how?
1735THEAETETUS: Well, and do you see what you are looking for?
1735THEAETETUS: What are they, and what is their name?
1735THEAETETUS: What are they?

1735THEAETETUS: What classification?
1735THEAETETUS: What definition?
1735THEAETETUS: What do you mean, and how do you distinguish them?
1735THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: What do you mean?

1735THEAETETUS: What is that?
1735THEAETETUS: What is that?
1735THEAETETUS: What is the notion?
1735THEAETETUS: What question?
1735THEAETETUS: What questions?
1735THEAETETUS: What shall be the divisions?
1735THEAETETUS: What was that?
1735THEAETETUS: What were they?
1735THEAETETUS: What will be their answer, Stranger?
1735THEAETETUS: What would he mean by''making''?
1735THEAETETUS: What?
1735THEAETETUS: What?
1735THEAETETUS: What?
1735THEAETETUS: Where shall we make the division?
1735THEAETETUS: Where, indeed?
1735THEAETETUS: Where?
1735THEAETETUS: Which is--?
1735THEAETETUS: Who are cousins?
1735THEAETETUS: Who but he can be worthy?
1735THEAETETUS: Why do you think so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why not?
1735THEAETETUS: Why not?
1735THEAETETUS: Why so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why so?
1735THEAETETUS: Why?
1735THEAETETUS: Why?
1735THEAETETUS: Will you tell me first what are the two divisions of which you are speaking?
1735THEAETETUS: Yes, there are many such; which of them do you mean?
1735THEAETETUS: Yes; why should there not be another such art?
1735THEODORUS: What is your difficulty about them, and what made you ask?
1735THEODORUS: What terms?
1735Tell me who?
1735The Pre- Socratic philosophies are simpler, and we may observe a progress in them; but is there any regular succession?
1735The unity of opposites was the crux of ancient thinkers in the age of Plato: How could one thing be or become another?
1735Then we turn to the friends of ideas: to them we say,''You distinguish becoming from being?''
1735Then what is the trick of his art, and why does he receive money from his admirers?
1735There will be no impropriety in our demanding an answer to this question, either of the dualists or of the pluralists?
1735Therefore not- being can not be predicated or expressed; for how can we say''is,''''are not,''without number?
1735They were the symbols of different schools of philosophy: but in what relation did they stand to one another and to the world of sense?
1735To begin at the beginning-- Does he make them able to dispute about divine things, which are invisible to men in general?
1735To them we say: Are being and one two different names for the same thing?
1735Turning to the dualist philosophers, we say to them: Is being a third element besides hot and cold?
1735Upon your view, are we to suppose that there is a third principle over and above the other two,--three in all, and not two?
1735We may call him an image- maker if we please, but he will only say,''And pray, what is an image?''
1735What connexion is there between the proposition and our ideas of reciprocity, cause and effect, and similar relations?
1735What do you say, Stranger?
1735What is the meaning of these words,''same''and''other''?
1735What is the teaching of Socrates apart from his personal history, or the doctrines of Christ apart from the Divine life in which they are embodied?
1735What shall we name him?
1735Whether they are right or not, who can say?
1735Who ever thinks of the world as a syllogism?
1735Will you recall them to my mind?
1735Will you tell me?
1735Would you object to begin with the consideration of the words themselves?
1735Yet one thing may be said of them without offence-- THEAETETUS: What thing?
1735You mean to say that he seems to have a knowledge of them?
1735and is not Being capable of being known?
1735has not Being mind?
1735he and we are in the same difficulty with which we reproached the dualists; for motion and rest are contradictions-- how then can they both exist?
1735is there a greater still behind?
1735my dear youth, do you suppose this possible?
1735or do you identify one or both of the two elements with being?
1735or( 2) that they all have indiscriminate communion?
1735or( 3) that there is communion of some and not of others?
5419''Who then is sane?'' 5419 Arrius''two sons, twin brothers, of a piece In vice, perverseness, folly, and caprice, Would lunch off nightingales: well, what''s their mark?
5419But surely that''s a merit quite unique, His gift of mixing Latin up with Greek,Unique, you lags in learning?
5419How now, you creature? 5419 How stand you with Maecenas?"
5419I,says a slave,"ne''er ran away nor stole:"Well, what of that?
5419So''twill not sink, what matter if my boat Be big or little? 5419 Take it?
5419Then what''s the attraction? 5419 What mischief have I done?"
5419What moves you, Agamemnon, thus to fling Great Ajax to the dogs? 5419 What of that?"
5419What said he?
5419What? 5419 What?
5419What? 5419 When with your withered lips you bill and coo, Is he that builds card- houses worse than you?
5419When you pick apple- pips, and try to hit The ceiling with them, are you sound of wit? 5419 Whither are you bound?"
5419Why not?
5419Will Caesar grant his veterans their estates In Italy, or t''other side of the straits?
5419Will Syria''s champion beat the Thracian cock?
5419''I may be right, I may be wrong,''said he,''Who cares?
5419''She calls me: ought I to obey her call, Or end this long infliction once for all?
5419''The price?''
5419''Then what''s a miser?''
5419''Well, if a man''s no miser, is he sane That moment?''
5419''What steps d''ye mean?''
5419''What?
5419''Why not sane?''
5419''Why, Stoic?''
5419''You wish to live?
5419''twixt the bridges twain, Or at the mouth where Tiber joins the main?
5419A bard who died a hundred years ago, With whom should he be reckoned, I would know?
5419A rancid boar our fathers used to praise: What?
5419A sage, you ask me?
5419A truce to murmuring: with another''s store To use at pleasure, who shall call you poor?

5419All in their way good things, but not just now: You''re happy at a cypress, we''ll allow; But what of that?
5419Am I worse trounced than you when I obey My stomach?
5419And how fare you?
5419And think you, on the strength of this, to rise A Paullus or Messala in our eyes?
5419And what''s the question that brings on these fits?-- Does Dolichos or Castor make more hits?
5419And you, sir Critic, does your finer sense In Homer mark no matter for offence?
5419And you, what aims are yours?
5419Antenor moves to cut away the cause Of all their sufferings: does he gain applause?
5419Ask you of me?
5419Ask you what makes the uncourteous reader laud My works at home, but run them down abroad?
5419Because she made these heavy those weigh light?
5419But grant that folks have different hobbies; say, Does one man ride one hobby one whole day?
5419But pray, since folly''s various, just explain What type is mine?
5419But tell me, Stoic, if the wise, you teach, Is king, Adonis, cobbler, all and each, Why wish for what you''ve got?
5419But what are Rhodes and Lesbos, and the rest, E''en let a traveller rate them at their best?
5419But what are we?

5419But what of Rome?
5419But what''s my sect?
5419But what''s the argument?
5419But where''s my vantage if you wo n''t agree To go by law, because the law''s with me?
5419But who are you to treat me to your raps?
5419But why should Rome capriciously forbid Our bards from doing what their fathers did?
5419But, if''tis still unbroken, what delight Can all that treasure give to mortal wight?

5419Does purer water strain your pipes of lead Than that which ripples down the brooklet''s bed?
5419Felt they for Lupus or Metellus, when Whole floods of satire drenched the wretched men?
5419For me, when freshened by my spring''s pure cold Which makes my villagers look pinched and old, What prayers are mine?
5419For where''s the difference, down the rabble''s throat To pour your gold, or never spend a groat?
5419For where''s the voice so strong as to o''ercome A Roman theatre''s discordant hum?

5419H. Good varlet, how?
5419H. I own I''m foolish-- truth must have her will-- Nay, mad: but tell me, what''s my form of ill?
5419H. Ill verses?
5419H. Or a pike?
5419H. What shall I do?
5419H. What, never write a single line again?
5419H. What?
5419H. Where''s there a stone?
5419Had Greece but been as carping and as cold To new productions, what would now be old?

5419He paused for breath: I falteringly strike in:"Have you a mother?
5419He roars like thunder: then to me:"You''ll stand My witness, sir?"
5419His footsteps now I follow as I may, Lucanian or Apulian, who shall say?
5419How could I treat him worse, were he to thieve, Betray a secret, or a trust deceive?
5419How fix him down in one enduring type?
5419How is it all to end?
5419How like you Chios, good Bullatius?
5419How moderate care for things of trifling worth?
5419How now?

5419How should we view them?
5419I bid you take a sum you wo n''t return: You take it: is this madness, I would learn?
5419I''m dubbed Alcaeus, and retire in force: And who is he?
5419I, if I chance in laughing vein to note Rufillus''civet and Gargonius''goat, Must I be toad or scorpion?

5419If hot sweet- cakes should tempt me, I am naught: Do you say no to dainties as you ought?
5419Is peace procured by honours, pickings, gains, Or, sought in highways, is she found in lanes?
5419Is springing grass less sweet to nose or eyes Than Libyan marble''s tesselated dyes?
5419Is there a spot where care contrives to keep At further distance from the couch of sleep?

5419Messius had much to answer:"Was his chain Suspended duly in the Lares''fane?
5419Nay, more,"he asked,"why had he run away, When e''en a single pound of corn a day Had filled a maw so slender?"

5419Was this your breeding?
5419Wastes he a thought on Horace?
5419We stop: inquiries and replies go round:"Where do you hail from?"
5419Well, betwixt these, what should a wise man do?
5419Well, but for us; what thoughts should ours be, say, Removed from vulgar judgments miles away?
5419Well, could Pomponius''sire to life return, Think you he''d rate his son in tones less stern?
5419Well, here''s a poet now, whose dying day Fell one month later, or a twelvemonth, say: Whom does he count with?
5419Well, when you offered in a heifer''s stead Your child, and strewed salt meal upon her head, Then were you sane, I ask you?

5419does he suit The strains of Thebes or Latium''s virgin lute, By favour of the Muse, or grandly rage And roll big thunder on the tragic stage?
5419had the act been more insane To fling it in a river or a drain?

47242''And how was that?''
47242''But is he in any danger of losing it?''
47242''Did the vulture fly East or West?''
47242''Finally, Proteus arrives in Greece; and what does he do there?
47242''Hermotimus?
47242''How so?''
47242''Just a stroll?''
47242''Pindar once found himself in a similar difficulty with an over- abundant theme: Ismenus?
47242''Proteus,''he cried,''Proteus vain- glorious?
47242''Twas in the crater that Empedocles sought death?''
47242''Twas the thunderbolt, methinks, that slew Asclepius, Dionysus[5]?
47242''What is that?
47242''Who trades in his own wife''s favours?''
47242''Will we have a fine day?''
47242''Yes, what am I to look you at?''
47242--''But how,''I asked,''and why?''
47242Adimantus__ Ly._ Said I not well?
47242Again I ask: do you want your sons to conceive an ambition of this sort?
47242Again, when people use edible things not for food but to get dye out of-- the murex- dyers, for instance-- are they not abusing God''s gifts?
47242Ah, Polemon, so you are back at last; are you well?
47242All that is another''s is mine: for can I not open his doors, put his guards to sleep, and walk in unperceived?
47242Am I mad, that I should forget Myrtium, so soon to become the mother of my child?
47242Am I meaner than Xerxes?
47242And as to''set''and''sit,''surely it is the whole difference between transitive and intransitive?
47242And did n''t I put down a solid drachma for you at the feet of Aphrodite''s statue, when it was her feast the other day?
47242And how is your cupbearer going to hand you a thing of that weight, when he has filled it?
47242And how will you like taking it from him?
47242And if Gods are patriotic, shall not men be more so?
47242And if that were all!--but to- day is harvest festival; and where is his present?
47242And it was she made you cry like that, was it?
47242And no wonder; where else could one find such clear sparkling water?
47242And now that you feel sure of me, and know how I dote on you, what is the consequence?
47242And surely it is a very humiliating circumstance that you should be apt to fall ill, just like ordinary people?
47242And what eye would not delight to feed on joys so varied?
47242And what have they been doing to you exactly?
47242And what is the great river that flows so close beneath the walls?
47242And where do I come in?
47242And who are the men, pray, who hold such language?
47242And will the piebald bull yonder[25], from Memphis, explain what use_ he_ has for a temple, an oracle, or a priest?
47242Antipater__ Ar._ Is it well with you, Antipater?
47242Aristaenetus told him he was quite right to come; would he take a chair and sit behind Histiaeus and Dionysodorus?
47242As far as I remember, he said-- but who comes here in such haste?
47242But how died he?
47242But it ca n''t have been a trifle that drove him away: what was it all about?
47242But leaving them out of the case, do you consider that you have good security for the continuance of your health?
47242But perhaps your case is a very different one; is the light so bright that you can not manage to fix your eyes on the dazzling glory of Demosthenes?
47242But there was Antiphon-- son to Menecrates-- and a whole mina; why not him?
47242But what may it be?''
47242But what point is there in Proteus''s throwing himself into the fire?
47242But what recked Hyperides?
47242But what was the inducement in the present case?
47242But when did you make this discovery?
47242But who are these men?
47242But your father is not dead?
47242But, O King, how had you been the better off, if he had come alive?
47242But_ I_ can not think what he_ finds_ in her; where are his eyes?
47242Cadmus?
47242Can Bacis turn an oracle too, as well as the Sibyl?
47242Choose-- a mighty champion, and loathed, or a confessed liar, and-- Hymnis?
47242Could any contrast be greater than that presented by their words and their deeds?
47242Could there be a more timely warning, balanced as it is by the prospect of abundance held out to him that follows the true method of agriculture?
47242Dazzled by gold and costly gems, how should the beholder do justice to the charms of a clear complexion, to neck, and eye, and arm, and finger?
47242Did I ever displease you?
47242Did they tell you how he brought them here, and all their adventures?
47242Did you ever notice his teeth?
47242Did you ever, among all the nations you passed in your flight, meet with a similar case of mental aberration?
47242Did you get that hay- cock?
47242Do I not live for you alone?
47242Do n''t you know?
47242Do you expect to be eighteen all your life, Musarium?
47242Do you suppose he could not get sheets and shoes, and therefore went as he did?
47242Do you suppose if I wanted to marry I should pass over Demeas''s daughter in favour of Phido''s?
47242Does that imply that, though there is nothing pleasanter, there may be something grander or more divine?
47242Doris__ Myr._ Well, Pamphilus?
47242H. IV_ The Rich to Cronus, Greeting._ Do you really suppose, Sire, that these letters of the poor have gone exclusively to_ your_ address?
47242Had n''t you better see what she is like first?
47242Has he got by?
47242Have we some overweening tyrant, who insults us with his wealth?
47242Have you lost your horns?
47242He laughed:''Why, how will it make things worse for you?''
47242He took up a man who said,''Yes, I can grapple with that,''meaning that he understood, with''Oh, you are going to throw me, are you?
47242Her Mother__ Mother._ You must be mad, Philinna; what_ was_ the matter with you at the dinner last night?
47242Here Zenothemis woke up and thundered out:''Chrysippus?
47242Here are some specimens: What time do you set out on your travels?--What time?
47242How aggravating!--Indeed?
47242How can we possibly keep the feast( they ask), when we are numb with frost and pinched with hunger?
47242How do we hunt our vermin down?
47242How is he going to improve the honest men, without hardening and encouraging the rogues?
47242How should I scorn your Muse?
47242How would he have taken it?
47242How would you like it, if the criminal classes were to profit by his lesson in fortitude, and learn to scorn death, and burning, and so on?
47242I dare say, now, she was very cruel and scornful?
47242I embrace and kiss a man like that?
47242I feel compassion for them, and have chosen you from among all the Gods to heal their ills; for who else should heal them?''
47242I had not brought my sword with me, or you may be sure I should have known what to do with it.--What are you both laughing at?
47242I said;''do you suppose I have kept my picture turned the same way all these years?
47242I should like to know what sort of presents the Bithynian makes you?
47242I should take it kindly of you, sir, if you would tell me whether you_ have_ ever seen Virtue or Fortune or Destiny anywhere?
47242I suppose you have forgotten him?
47242If he were not in love with you, why should he mind your having another lover?
47242If you have not lost a thing, you still have it?
47242Is it a heap?
47242Is it a heap?
47242Is it just a cobweb spun in that jealous little brain of yours?
47242Is it so amusing, Pythias?
47242Is mine weaker?
47242It is useless, of course, to offer gold to the gifted son of Calliope?
47242Let either of them tell me, What is Philosophy?
47242Logic and life, rhetoric and philosophy, popularity and death-- ay, but which?
47242Melia''s distaff golden- bright?
47242More misdeeds of the ignorant herd?
47242Need I enumerate instances?
47242Now begin with telling me what Aristaenetus was giving the banquet for; was it his boy Zeno''s wedding?
47242Now, if a man came to you and said that he had left his wife''s home, would you stand that?
47242Now, if_ you_ will not enlighten me on this subject, who can?
47242Now, what are the facts?
47242Now, what are your feelings when you hear a man deprecating his own merits, and depreciating his friend''s excessive gratitude?
47242Or again, if you hate pleasure and condemn the Epicureans, how comes it that you will do and endure the meanest things for it?
47242Others you may see naked, swimming for their lives; and what was the reef that wrecked them, pray?
47242Pass the cutting off the wretched Paphlagonian''s head, what did you want to spike it on a spear for, and let the blood run down on you?
47242Perhaps you consider that a stiffish dose of hellebore would serve the turn?
47242Perhaps you think it a trifle always to win at dice, and be able to count on the sice when the ace is the best the others can throw?
47242Pray tell me, do you not call extravagance a vice?
47242Purist__ Ly._ Are you the man whose scent is so keen for a blunder, and who is himself blunder- proof?
47242Shall I call evidence?
47242Shall we have another match on the old lines?
47242Shall we try to find the answers?
47242Shall we wait for him here, or do you think I had better go back on board?
47242So I said How d''ye do, and then asked,''Do tell me, Parmenon, how you got on; have you made anything to repay you for all your fighting?''
47242So- and- so is a tribes- man of mine.--Oh, you are a savage, are you?
47242Somewhere in Greece, of course?
47242Suppose I were to return you evil for evil?
47242Take it at the best; let all endure for ages: what will it profit your senseless clay?
47242The fellow is a boozy.--Oh, Boozy was his mother''s name, was it?
47242The general opinion clearly was that he was an impudent rogue, and various people struck in with what came to hand:''What, Menelaus, art distraught?''
47242The land is consequently uninhabited; savage, dried up, barren, droughty, how should it support life?
47242The patrimonial income supplies me well enough.--Patrimonial?
47242Thebe''s dark circlet?
47242Then how is Proteus going to draw the line?
47242There was a general laugh; upon which,''You vile scum,''says he,''you laugh, do you, because I invoke our God Heracles as I toast the bride?
47242These are riddles, Archias; you took him alive, and you have him not?
47242They went to law, but were compounded.--You do n''t say they did n''t get apart again?
47242This was how I began to Parmenon:''Did you and your master''s ears burn, Parmenon?''
47242Three Runaway Slaves.__ Apol._ Father, is this true, about a man''s publicly throwing himself upon a pyre, at the Olympian Games?
47242Used mortals to play draughts in your time?
47242Was it for this that he suffered bondage in Syria?
47242Was that a woman''s voice, reciting Homer?
47242Was there anything to be got by jumping on to a pyre, and being converted to cinders?
47242Welcome, my musical friend: you have not forgotten Heracles, I hope?
47242Well, I suppose there may be fools and empty- headed enthusiasts in India as elsewhere?
47242Well, and who were the guests?
47242Well, do you know what a historian is?
47242Well, now what are we to do?
47242Well, why do n''t you speak?
47242Well?
47242What avail ashes and urns, if I have not Demosthenes?
47242What can we call this but a drunken freak?
47242What do I know about brides, ugly or pretty?
47242What do you mean?
47242What do you recommend, Lycinus?
47242What faults have you to find, Lycinus?
47242What girl would look at a man who likes such nastiness-- let alone drink or sleep with him?
47242What have I ever done to you?
47242What is coming?
47242What is the meaning of it all?
47242What is to be looked for from people whose worship is of Dionysus, whose life is in feasting and dancing?
47242What is to prevent one single ring from doing all the work?
47242What is your opinion of this gentleman?
47242What names am I to say, Philosophy?
47242What orator would not feel that his credit was at stake, and be fired with ambition to surpass himself, rather than be found wanting to his theme?
47242What other end had Heracles?
47242What remains to tell?
47242What say you, friends?
47242What should you say to that?
47242What value can one attach to a man whom one''s nose would identify for one of those minions?
47242What was I to do?
47242What was the good of this multitude of wonderful cups, he wanted to know, when earthenware would serve the purpose?
47242What, make the story public?
47242What, no answer?
47242What, nothing to say for yourself?
47242What, then, I am an interloper too, am I?
47242What, then, should a man of sense do, when he finds one friend''s virtue pitted against another''s truth?
47242What?
47242What_ have_ you done?
47242What_ is_ it all about, Charmides?
47242When some one described his sick servant as undergoing torture, he asked,''What for?
47242Whence, and whither?''
47242White- armed Harmonia''s bridal?--Ay, but which?
47242Whither, I wonder, goes this mighty host, issuing from Arcadia?
47242Who are to be the first victims?
47242Who dares name the word?
47242Who has been telling you all this?
47242Who knows?
47242Who was it they all compared me to, Chenidas?
47242Why are you crying, child?
47242Why go about with your left hand loaded,--a ring to every finger?
47242Why_ is_ it all?
47242Yes?
47242You do n''t suppose he will remember tears and kisses and vows, with five talents of dowry to distract him?
47242You mean to say you are_ not_ going to be married?
47242You seem like one rapt in contemplation; you are pondering on matters of no light import?
47242You surely find him a more temperate and better man than the other?
47242You would be there, no doubt,--when that old man burnt himself?
47242[ 19] All this your Demosthenes endured, and who knows not what an orator it made of him?
47242_ Ad._ How so?
47242_ Ad._ Who begins?
47242_ Ant._ And he has died on the way?
47242_ Ant._ And it was indeed--?
47242_ Ant._ And what hearing did he give them?
47242_ Ant._ Ay?
47242_ Ant._ Ha?
47242_ Ant._ Ha?
47242_ Ant._ What mean you?
47242_ Ant._ Why took you him not alive?
47242_ Apol._ But what was his object, father?
47242_ Apol._ Oh?
47242_ Ar._ How?
47242_ Ar._ Was it not your charge that we should use no force at first?
47242_ Ba._ But you_ did_ know Hermotimus, I suppose?
47242_ Ch._ Go on slapping me?
47242_ Ch._ Is that the only way to tell?
47242_ Che._ Shall I tell her you lied to make her think you a fine fellow?
47242_ Che._ Why, who should it be?
47242_ Co._ Is the man mad?
47242_ Cro._ That conceited shepherd[11]?
47242_ Cy._ A man''s sufficiency is that which meets his necessities; will that do?
47242_ Cy._ And do you think my feet walk worse than yours, or than the average man''s?
47242_ Cy._ And economy a virtue?
47242_ Cy._ And want occurs when the supply falls short of necessity-- does not meet the need?
47242_ Cy._ But now, pray, what is the purpose of the protection, in turn?
47242_ Cy._ Clothing-- what is that for?
47242_ Cy._ Do you see, or must I explain?
47242_ Cy._ Is he temperate?
47242_ Cy._ Oh, yes; look at it this way; what have feet to do?
47242_ Cy._ That brings us to the questions, What is want, and what is sufficiency?
47242_ Cy._ Then do you think my feet are in worse condition than yours?
47242_ Cy._ Then, if you find me living economically, and others extravagantly, why blame me instead of them?
47242_ Cy._ Well, consider the purpose of anything we require; the purpose of a house is protection?
47242_ Cy._ Well, the rest of my body, then?
47242_ Do._ And how do you like him for a lover?
47242_ First Master._ Ha, Cantharus, have I got you?
47242_ First Master._ So tragic?
47242_ First Master._ Why, what is all this about?
47242_ Gly._ Yes, dear; is n''t it_ horrid_ of her?
47242_ Her._ And why is that?
47242_ Her._ Does none of you know anything about this other?
47242_ Her._ How am I to understand that?
47242_ Her._ Straight to Thrace, then?
47242_ Her._ Very good; and what comes next?
47242_ Her._ Yes, come along, and we will polish off a few to- day.--Which way, Philosophy?
47242_ Her._ Yes?
47242_ Innkeeper._ Why, the Three- headed Dog is a book, master?
47242_ Jo._ Shut him out?
47242_ Jo._ Why not?
47242_ Le._ Such a coward, girl?
47242_ Ly._ And if a person were to use''interchange''there instead of''exchange,''what would you take him to mean?
47242_ Ly._ And if you caught him committing a solecism, would you stand it?
47242_ Ly._ And the fancy?
47242_ Ly._ And what lover would not have been jealous?
47242_ Ly._ But what would you have me do?
47242_ Ly._ By the way, do you know of any one who is on the look in for a wife?
47242_ Ly._ Can it be a love affair?
47242_ Ly._ Charinus?
47242_ Ly._ Do I understand that you are proof?
47242_ Ly._ Do you also see that the exchange of one for the other is a solecism?
47242_ Ly._ Have you realized on what a slender thread all this wealth depends?
47242_ Ly._ How about that last?
47242_ Ly._ How did''one are''get past you?
47242_ Ly._ How do you make that out?
47242_ Ly._ I suppose one must be blunder- proof, to detect the man who is not so?
47242_ Ly._ Is there such a person?
47242_ Ly._ Monstrous sly, is it not, to say''mutual''instead of''joint''?
47242_ Ly._ Not sure?
47242_ Ly._ Now, can you tell me the difference between''setting''and''sitting,''or between''be seated''and''sit''?
47242_ Ly._ Or the only way you can learn?
47242_ Ly._ Outrageous?
47242_ Ly._ Perhaps one at a time are too few?
47242_ Ly._ Pythias?
47242_ Ly._ Then, as you can not feel the difference between''deprecate''and''depreciate,''shall we conclude that you are an ignoramus?
47242_ Ly._ Well, shall you be able to detect a culprit, and convict him if he denies it?
47242_ Ly._ Well, what is to happen, if you can not follow now?
47242_ Ly._ Well?
47242_ Ly._ What do I want with a wish?
47242_ Ly._ What, not observed''broad open''?
47242_ Ly._ What?
47242_ Ly._ Why, how can they be equivalent?
47242_ Masters._ Indeed, madam?
47242_ Me._ What was her fee?
47242_ Mo._ Have I your permission to speak, sir?
47242_ Mother._ But what about kissing Lamprias?
47242_ Mother._ They do n''t all find it so hard to get round their fathers; why ca n''t he get a slave to wheedle him?
47242_ Mu._ Oh well, mother, are the rest of them happier or better- looking than I am?
47242_ Myr._ Well, and when you sailed again, did n''t I give you that waistcoat, that you might have something to wear when you were rowing?
47242_ Pa._ Are you mad, or what is the matter with you?
47242_ Pa._ How much more nonsense are you going to talk about shipowners and marriages?
47242_ Pa._ Oh, Dorcas, what_ am_ I to do?
47242_ Pa._ Oh, what will become of me?
47242_ Pa._ Well; and you did?
47242_ Pa._ What shall I do, Dorcas?
47242_ Pa._ What, straight off like that?
47242_ Phi._ And who may you be, good sir?
47242_ Phi._ Dionicus the doctor had told him, he said;_ he_ was one of you, was he not?
47242_ Phi._ Heracles, who is this comely person with a lyre?
47242_ Phi._ I know; a fine lad; only a lad, though; old enough to marry?
47242_ Phi._ The usual thing, I suppose-- a panegyric on the bride, or an epithalamium?
47242_ Phi._ Well, my dear, where is that wine?
47242_ Po._ Polemon, deme Stiria, tribe Pandionis; will that do for you?
47242_ Po._ Who is this person coming to you?
47242_ Pr._ But what possessed you to abdicate?
47242_ Pr._ First, then, is the common story true?
47242_ Pur._ Again?
47242_ Pur._ But what have I to do with solecists on the look in for wives?
47242_ Pur._ Feelings?
47242_ Pur._ How can that be, before you have opened your lips?
47242_ Pur._ How could I call myself educated, if I made blunders at my age?
47242_ Pur._ Namely--?
47242_ Pur._ Three?
47242_ Pur._ Well?
47242_ Pur._ What_ are_ you talking about?
47242_ Pur._ Why, what may the difference be?
47242_ Pur._ Would it?
47242_ Pur._ You are joking, of course?
47242_ Sa._ Are you going to show the white feather too, Adimantus, now that the danger is near?--Timolaus, what is your advice?
47242_ Sa._ Well, tell me what you think of mine?
47242_ Sa._ You see when it was we lost him, Lycinus?
47242_ Sa.__ O sancta simplicitas!_ Did you think that you were at Athens all this time?
47242_ Second Master._ Ha, you rascal there, am I mistaken, or are you my lost Lecythio?
47242_ Ti._ Well, Lycinus, what do you expect?
47242_ Try._ And the tears were all for her?
47242_ Try._ Had you a full view of her, or did you just see her face and as much as a woman of forty- five likes to show?
47242_ Try._ Is this recent?
47242_ Try._ Well, which are you going to trust-- her word, or your own eyes?
47242_ Try._ Which?
47242_ You_ are very proud of your eulogy on Homer; and is Demosthenes a light matter to_ me_?''
47242_ Zeus._ Oh, it''s the philosophers who have been misbehaving themselves?
47242_ Zeus._ Then if it is neither the philosophers nor the common people, who is it that you complain of?
47242a man of mature years riding about on a finger- ring, moving whole mountains with a touch; bald and snub- nosed, yet the desire of all eyes?
47242a repetition of the Socrates and Anytus affair?
47242and I am to let him outrage my feelings just for that?
47242and did she steal away Zeus, and give you a stone to swallow for a baby?
47242and going across and embracing him?
47242and how did they receive you at your first descent?
47242and how shall I describe them?
47242and that Mede there, Mithras, with the candys and tiara?
47242and what brings you here, away from the world?
47242and what is the trouble now?
47242and what were they?

47242has he never found out how thin her hair is?
47242he has given you up, and taken her in your place?
47242he left life for want of belief in my promises?
47242he was not there; what can he know about it?
47242how do your pipes come to be broken?
47242how they were saved by a star?
47242how?''
47242is he a man of sense?
47242is that all?
47242is that it?
47242is that true?
47242it is a treat to hear him when he sings and tries to make himself agreeable; what is it they tell me about an ass that would learn the lyre?
47242never a word of how Polemon had talked or thought of me, or prayed he might find me alive?
47242or how long has it been going on?
47242or should I have made him my right- hand man in the management of Greece and of the empire?
47242or that Chaereas will be of the same mind when he has his fortune, and his mother finds a marriage that will bring him another?
47242or the other, the one they call The Trap?
47242or was it just a drunken freak?
47242or, not to go beyond the merest elements, how does_ condition_ differ from_ constitution?

47242that he forgave his country a debt of a million odd?
47242that he was cast out of Rome,--he whose brilliance exceeds the Sun, fit rival of the Lord of Olympus?
47242that is surely Adimantus?
47242the all- daring might Of Heracles?
47242the old gentleman deserved a better fate?
47242the race from dragon''s teeth that came?
47242there are two of them; one in Piraeus, who has only just come there; Damyllus the governor''s son is in love with her; is it that one?
47242used you to eat the children Rhea bore you?
47242was Demosthenes not our enemy of enemies?
47242was there ever a juster man than Aristides?
47242what do they suppose they are going to get out of him?''
47242what do you mean?''
47242what does it aggravate?
47242what is it?
47242what would it be if I saw the thing done, and the blood, and the bodies lying there?
47242why not tell his mother he will go off for a soldier if she does n''t let him have some money?
47242you do not suppose he knew anything worth knowing about me?
47242you name that name?
23639And are not mischances misfortunes in those matters wherein we mischance?
23639And are not slips mischances in those matters wherein we slip?
23639Are we,said he,"to leave the question unanswered, or are we to reply to his argument in his absence as if he were present?"
23639Certainly,said Daphnæus,"what else could they mean?"
23639Did n''t you hear the news?
23639Malignant wretch, why art so keen to mark Thy neighbour''s fault, and seest not thine own? 23639 See you the boundless reach of sky above, And how it holds the earth in its soft arms?"
23639What grace or pleasure in life is there without golden Aphrodite? 23639 What news?"
23639What then?
23639Why then did you not tell me of it at once?
23639Why then has he not come?
23639You are always extolling people of no merit: for who is this fellow, or what has he said or done out of the common?
23639[ 207] Why should not you also say,If men are not better for learning, the money paid to tutors is also lost?"
23639[ 250] who on earth could be ignorant of so great a change happening to himself, of virtue blazing forth so completely all at once? 23639 [ 480] And,"Where is thy bow, where thy wing''d arrows, Pandarus, Where thy great fame, which no one here can match?
23639[ 481] Such language again plainly cheers very much those that are down as,Where now is Oedipus, and his famous riddles?
23639[ 482] and,Does much- enduring Hercules say this?
23639[ 516] And Domitius said to Crassus,Did you not weep for the lamprey that was bred in your fishpond, and died?"
23639[ 56] What hope of gain or advantage had they in those days? 23639 [ 727] What prevents our imitating such men as these?
23639[ 729] Or has any bad luck or contumely fallen on you in consequence of some calumny or from envy? 23639 [ 783] And,"What think you these wretches would have said, if the states had departed, when I was curiously discussing these points?
23639[ 7] But why pursue the line of argument further? 23639 [ 946] And does not justice, and fairness, and sobriety, and decorum rule the affairs of mortals?
23639[ 949] For what can be found out or learnt by men, if everything is due to fortune? 23639 _ G._ Is''t in your ears or in your mind you''re grieved?
23639''Have they not,''he replied,''been long bearing false witness against me, crying out that I had killed my father?''
23639''How in the name of Heaven?''
23639''See you how great a goddess Aphrodite is?
23639''[ 87] And what difference is there between calling in question the received opinion about Zeus or Athene, and that about Love?
23639''[ 97] And shall no god or good genius assist and prosper the man who hunts in the best chase of all, the chase of friendship?
2363910- 12?
236391?
236395, 19:"Quid fraudare juvat vitem crescentibus uvis?"
2363990:"Quo teneam vultus mutantem Protea nodo?"
2363997?
23639And Agesilaus said of the great king,"How is he better than me, if he is not more upright?"
23639And Aristippus, when there was anger between him and Æschines, and somebody said,"O Aristippus, where is now your friendship?"
23639And King Antigonus asked Cleanthes, when he saw him at Athens after a long interval,"Do you still grind, Cleanthes?"
23639And among you Thebans, Pemptides, is it not usual for the lover to give his boy- love a complete suit of armour when he is enrolled among the men?
23639And are not those who express their meaning by signs without words wonderfully praised and admired?
23639And are these the only things that teach the power of diligence?
23639And dare not you stand up boldly against him for what is right?"
23639And did not Hannibal the Carthaginian use freedom of speech to Antiochus, though he was an exile, and Antiochus a king?
23639And did not Hegesias by his speeches make, many of his hearers to commit suicide?
23639And he replied,"If not all, but only some, of it is true, do you not think that the subject presents the same difficulty?"
23639And he wondering and saying,"Why all these legal forms, Persæus?"
23639And if anyone would also constantly put to himself that question of Plato,"Am I myself all I should be?"
23639And if their union is seasonable, who knows but that she may be a better partner for him than any young woman?
23639And is not the god himself short and concise in his oracles?
23639And on her trying to deny it, and saying,"Were there not three hundred Senators that heard of it as well as you?
23639And on his inquiring,"What, nothing more?"
23639And so Diogenes, when Plato was being praised, said,"What has he to vaunt of, who has been a philosopher so long, and yet never gave pain to anyone?"
23639And so that was a wise answer of Philippides the Comic Poet, when King Lysimachus asked him on one occasion,"What would you like to have of mine?"
23639And someone asks Hercules,''Did you obtain the girl''s favour by force or by persuasion?''
23639And that Lasthenes and Euthycrates lost Olynthus, measuring happiness by their belly and lusts?
23639And that Scipio after taking Carthage neither saw nor received any of the spoil?
23639And that she has gone to a place where she is out of pain ought not to pain us, for what evil can we mourn for on her account if her pains are over?
23639And the general Iphicrates well answered Callias, the son of Chabrias, who asked him,"What are you?
23639And to another such fellow, who said after a long rigmarole,"Did I weary you, philosopher, by my chatter?"
23639And were not the murderers of Ibycus similarly captured?
23639And what constitution so good but it is marred and impaired by sloth, luxury, and too full habit?
23639And what deliberative assembly of a state is not annulled, what council of a king is not abrogated, if all things are subject to fortune?
23639And what horses broken in young are not docile to their riders?
23639And what if she plumes herself somewhat on the lustre of her race?
23639And what trees do not by neglect become gnarled and unfruitful, whereas by pruning they become fruitful and productive?
23639And what weak constitution has not derived benefit from exercise and athletics?
23639And when Daphnæus had repeated the lines, my father resumed,"In the name of Zeus, is not this plainly a divine seizure?
23639And when Metrocles answered,"Her fault, but your misfortune,"he rejoined,"How say you?
23639And when Metrocles reproached him with her life, he said,"Is it my fault or hers?"
23639And when he admitted that it was so, he went on to say,"Ought I not then to condole with you rather than you with me?"
23639And when the company said, as it was likely they would,''Whatever makes you act in such a strange manner?''
23639And who was the father of Codrus that reigned at Athens?
23639And who would say that the anger of Magas against Philemon was equal to that of Nicocreon against Anaxarchus?
23639And why not, to get well?
23639And why should we be surprised at similar cases, seeing that we find many of the savagest animals docile and tame by training?
23639And yet it is perhaps ridiculous to be indignant about law and justice, when nature itself is trampled upon by being thus subjected to women?
23639And you know of course how it was that Cleomachus the Pharsalian fell in battle?"
23639And you too, Sir, I would say to a curious person, why do you pry into what is hidden?
23639Are not faults also slips?"
23639Are we to say that man does not love himself by nature, because many cut their throats or throw themselves down precipices?
23639Are you afraid?
23639Are you angry?
23639Are you by nature fond of gazing at little or great things?
23639Are you distressed at the pinch of poverty?
23639Are you going to read it more than once to the jury?"
23639Are you in love?
23639Are you of a jealous turn?
23639As if any dropsical person, whose body was greatly swollen and who was very weak, should say to his doctor,"Am I then to become lean and empty?"
23639But Pisias jumped up and cried out,"Ye gods, what will be the end of license like this which will overthrow our town?
23639But Socrates said to him,"Did not a hen at your house the other day fly in and act in the very same way?
23639But curious people shun the country as stale and dull and too quiet, and push into warehouses and markets and harbours, asking,"Any news?
23639But how then will you find fault with your friend if he makes mistakes in business?
23639But if words are neither useful to the speaker, nor necessary for the hearer, nor contain any pleasure or charm, why are they spoken?
23639But now each of us, when angry and punishing, quote the words of Aristides and Cato,"Do not steal, Do not tell lies,"and"Why are you lazy?"
23639But what are the next lines of Euripides?
23639But why dwell on this?
23639But why need I mention these?
23639But why need I speak of our various passions?
23639But, generally speaking, who has the right to blame the person who has not kept his secret?
23639But, of all the multitude of lovers, did you ever hear of one that prostituted his boy- love even for the honours of Zeus?
23639Can any other word lurk under it?
23639Can it be connected with[ Greek: arma]?
23639Can you not be a schoolmaster or tutor, or porter, or sailor, or make coasting voyages?
23639Can[ Greek: phthonou]--[Greek: heteron] be an account of[ Greek: epichairekakia]?
23639Compare also the following lines,"How should I boast?
23639Consider also that very philosophical and witty answer of Diogenes to the man who asked,"How shall I avenge myself on my enemy?"
23639Did he take a yoke of oxen from the field, did he come home smelling of yesterday''s debauch?
23639Did not Oedipus put out his eyes?
23639Did you court the friendship of some great man, and meet with a rebuff?
23639Did you exchange no words with those that have just arrived from Italy?"
23639Did you not pass by the officers''quarters?
23639Didst not thou offer such a one to Socrates?
23639Diogenes despises thee, who cried out, as he was being sold by some robbers,"Who will buy a master?"
23639Disorders, of mind or body, which worse?
23639Do they not sometimes get called waspish and shrewish by virtue of their very chastity?
23639Do we not see that all men adore the temple of Theseus as well as the Parthenon and Eleusinium?
23639Do you ask this, having two hands, two legs, and a tongue, in short, being a man, to love and be loved, to give and receive benefits?
23639Do you desire anything?
23639Do you not see how many opportunities there are both on land and sea?
23639Do you see what fruits virtue yields?
23639Do you see yon great and promiscuous crowd jostling against one another and surging round the rostrum and forum?
23639Do you suspect?
23639Do you think things in the town change every three hours?"
23639Does an orator ask a favour of you when you are acting as juryman, or a demagogue when you are sitting in council?
23639Dost thou bring slavery, and bondage, and sale?
23639Dost thou mix a cup of poison?
23639For an opportunity will offer itself to say,"Are those actions worthy to be compared with these?
23639For example, does childlessness trouble you?
23639For example, why are the children of those that have died of consumption or dropsy bidden to sit with their feet in water till the dead body is burnt?
23639For he being bothered with a talkative fellow, and wearied out with his absurd tales, and his frequent question,"Is not this wonderful, Aristotle?"
23639For he that anticipates by his own answer the person that was asked the question seems to say,"What is the good of asking him?
23639For how did the Messenians who were killed long before derive any benefit from the punishment of Aristocrates?
23639For how does plenty of room bring about an easy life?
23639For instance, if anyone asked,"Is Socrates at home?"
23639For they are slaves to all money- lenders,[888] and not to them only, what would there be so monstrous in that?
23639For they say,"''Our life''s but a span;''[37] we can only live once; why should you heed your father''s threats?
23639For what island has not a house, a promenade, a bath, and fish and hares for those who love fishing and field- sports?
23639For who ever bestowed such encomium upon his country as Euripides did in the following lines?
23639Fortune, dost thou threaten poverty?
23639Good also is it for the matron, when she has the mirror in her hands, if not handsome to say to herself,"What should I be, if I were not virtuous?"
23639Granted she loves sway and is rich?
23639Has Homer come to life again?"
23639Has your son deceived you by the help of a slave?
23639Has your wife been seduced?
23639Have not chaste women often something of the morose and peevish in their character almost past bearing?
23639Have you again had matters to deal with that required labour and thought?
23639Have you anything?
23639Have you been rather near?
23639Have you been vexed?
23639Have you failed to get some office?
23639Have you not been in the market?
23639Have you nothing?
23639Have you observed the ape?
23639He will say,"How can they open their mouths against you, or what can they urge, if you give up and abandon what you get this bad name about?"
23639Hiero was twitted by one of his enemies for his foul breath, so he went home and said to his wife,"How is this?
23639How come you to know all this?"
23639How did Solon benefit the Athenians by ordaining that debtors should no longer have to pay in person?
23639How do we do when it rains, or when the North Wind doth blow?
23639How else indeed could the flatterer insinuate himself by the pleasure he gives, unless he knew that friendship admitted the pleasurable element?
23639How is this?
23639How then is the flatterer convicted, and by what differences is he detected, of being only a counterfeit, and not really like his victim?
23639How then, will you say, am I to maintain myself?
23639How will you be able to correct him, if he acts improperly in reference to some office, or marriage, or the state?
23639I now turn my attention to those who are rich and luxurious, and use language like the following,"Am I then to go without slaves and hearth and home?"
23639I would reply, What have we not?
23639If a young ass kicked me would you have me kick it back?"
23639If however the person who meets him says he has no news, he will say somewhat peevishly,"No news, Sir?
23639In such a case as this which of us would not have broken the walls with vociferation?
23639In the first place then it seems to me that what is most injurious in enmity may become most useful to those that pay attention to it?
23639In what cases then ought a friend to be vehement, and when ought he to use emphatic freedom of language?
23639Indeed, how can it be otherwise, seeing that we repudiate wisdom, which is like plucking out our eyes, and take a blind guide of our lives?
23639Is he not afraid or ashamed to press you to what is not right?
23639Is he not called Loxias,[597] because he prefers ambiguity to longwindedness?
23639Is he scented like a perfume shop?
23639Is it grievous?
23639Is it grievous?"
23639Is it not easy then to put to the test many friends, and to associate with many friends at the same time, or is this impossible?
23639Is it that he should instruct nobody, inspire in nobody an emulation for virtue, and be to nobody a pattern in good?
23639Is it that vice is universal?
23639Is not this a wonderful commotion of soul?
23639Is not this an advantage to us?
23639Is there not more extravagance in the love of boys?
23639Is your life so disgraceful that we must all be ignorant of it?
23639Listen to a story about two vultures; one was vomiting and saying it would bring its inside up, and the other who was by said,"What harm if you do?
23639Might not one of them have divulged it?"
23639Nay, there are many such, and shall they not move and provoke love?
23639O sirs, by asserting that virtue is not a thing to be taught, why are we making it unreal?
23639Or wilt thou nail a man on a cross, or impale him on a stake?
23639Saw even Lemnos ever the like of this?
23639So the crowd surrounded this man, and asked him one after the other,"Who are you?
23639So the famous king Antigonus, when his son asked him,"When are we going to shift our quarters?"
23639Suppose someone should say, What blessings have we?
23639Supposing anyone objects:"How so?
23639Then Lysias laughed, and said,"What then?
23639Then said Daphnæus,"In the name of the gods, who thinks differently?"
23639Then said I,"Which of his words has moved you most?
23639Then said I,"Why should we bring up the third wave[814] and drown the argument, if he is not able to refute or evade the charges already brought?
23639Then said Patrocleas,"What oracle do you refer to?
23639To what do I refer?
23639To what is this tongue marching?
23639To which Crassus replied,"Did you weep, when you buried your three wives?"
23639Unable to bear poverty, are you going to put on your back a money- lender, a weight hard to carry even for a rich man?
23639Was Camillus without glory when banished from Rome, of which he is now accounted the second founder?
23639Was he afraid then to entrust a secret to him, to whom he intended one day to leave his kingdom?
23639Was it not Melanthus, an exile from Messene?
23639Was it not the praise of flatterers?
23639Was it of fortune or owing to fortune that Aristides persevered in his poverty, when he might have been lord of much wealth?
23639Was it of fortune or owing to fortune that Philocrates spent on harlots and fish the money he had received from Philip?
23639Was it of fortune that Alexander the son of Philip not only himself abstained from the captive women, but punished others that outraged them?
23639We tolerate the faults of our friends; why should we not that of our sons?
23639Were you not in the market in the forenoon?"
23639What can be made of[ Greek: pollous] here?
23639What cares Theodorus whether he rots above ground or below?
23639What does he know about it?
23639What else brought Nero[398] on the tragic stage, and invested him with the mask and buskins?
23639What else invested Ptolemy[397] with his pipe and fiddle?
23639What fevers, what agues, do not these things cause?
23639What good will come of speaking now, or what harm of silence?"
23639What have I done?
23639What is all this but seeking out excuses for being unthankful to fortune, only to torment and punish oneself?
23639What is hard for exiles?
23639What is huger or more formidable in appearance than the elephant?
23639What is it then?
23639What is the meaning of those common tables of yours?
23639What kind of flatterer then must we be on our guard against?
23639What need was there to bring in Zeus Soter?
23639What obstructions, what irruptions of blood into the air- vessels, what distemperature of heat, what overflow of humours, do not result?
23639What say you?
23639What that I ought to have done left undone?"
23639What then is the difference between these?
23639What then is the purchase- money of friendship?
23639What then, if she is young and handsome?
23639What then?
23639What then?
23639What was his reply?
23639What will become of us?"
23639When Aristippus was asked by someone,"Are you everywhere then?"
23639When Polynices was asked"What is''t to be an exile?
23639When did ever any breath of suspicion sully her house?
23639When did ever any ugly rumour attach itself to her?
23639Where indeed?
23639Where is the reason or justice in all this?
23639Where then is the pleasure of vice, if there is nowhere in it freedom from anxiety and pain, or independence, or tranquillity, or rest?
23639Whereupon Daphnæus,"Do you call the marriage and union of man and woman most disgraceful, than which no holier tie exists nor ever did?"
23639Whereupon Socrates replied,"And you too, sir, would it not have become you to make this remark also privately?"
23639Who exiled these men?
23639Who knows you?
23639Who lives a more quiet life in our town than Ismenodora?
23639Who of the Boeotians would you rather prefer to be than Epaminondas, or of the Romans than Fabricius?
23639Who of those inspired by Cybele are made beside themselves to this extent by the flute and the kettledrum?
23639Who then are made unhappy by these things?
23639Who was this Corax?
23639Why is this the case?
23639Why need I mention the story of Euxynthetus and Leucomantis, the latter of whom is called The Peeping Girl to this day in Cyprus?
23639Why pay court to the banker or trader?
23639Why should it then good and worthy men?
23639Yet what better advice could we give our sons than to follow this?
23639You remember the husband in the play saying to his wife,''Do you hate me?
23639[ 627] Plutarch rather reminds one, in his evident contempt for_ Epitaphs_, of the cynic who asked,"Where are all the bad people buried?"
23639[ 897] Has not that"live unknown"a villainous ring, as though one had broken open graves?

23639_ C._ Why do you thus define the seat of grief?

23639_ Jocasta._ What is its aspect?

23639an archer?
23639and in telling the Sybarites that the only end of their troubles would be propitiating by their ruin on three occasions the wrath of Leucadian Hera?
23639and on the king turning angrily to him and saying,"What are you talking about?"
23639and sometimes receiving for answer,"What then?
23639and why alas?
23639answered,"Are you afraid that you only will not hear the trumpet?"
23639answered,"How many do you make me equal to then?"
23639are you not content to die with Phocion?"
23639can anyone bearing the sacred name of father put obliging a petitioner before obtaining the best education for his sons?
23639can you not go rather farther off to run me down?"

23639have not poor debtors storms, when the money- lender stands over them and says,_ Pay_?
23639let her answer,"How would he act then, if I were to begin to hate him and injure him?"
23639nay, or even now?
23639or to what could we better exhort them to accustom themselves?
23639poor me, wherever were my brains in my body at the time when I chose that line of conduct, and not this?"
23639said my father,"do you consider Ares a god, or only a human passion?"
23639thou son of brave horse- taming Tydeus, Why dost thou crouch for fear, and watch far off The lines of battle?
23639what that crowd of friends and handsome youths?
23639who credits it?"

23639§ V. What if this natural affection, like many other virtues, is obscured by badness, as a wilderness chokes a garden?
23639§ V. Whenever Plato was in company with people who behaved in an unseemly manner, he used to say to himself,"Am I such a person as this?
1676ALCIBIADES: And do you not think that I would enquire?
1676ALCIBIADES: And was there not a time when I did so think?
1676ALCIBIADES: And what should he do, Socrates, who would make the discovery?
1676ALCIBIADES: At what?
1676ALCIBIADES: But do you not think that I could discover them?
1676ALCIBIADES: But what can we do?
1676ALCIBIADES: But what was I to do, Socrates, when anybody cheated me?
1676ALCIBIADES: But, Socrates, if the two sons of Pericles were simpletons, what has that to do with the matter?
1676ALCIBIADES: But, perhaps, he does not exist; may I not have acquired the knowledge of just and unjust in some other way?
1676ALCIBIADES: Did I, then?
1676ALCIBIADES: Do you mean by''how,''Socrates, whether we suffered these things justly or unjustly?
1676ALCIBIADES: Do you mean to say that the contest is not with these?
1676ALCIBIADES: How can we, Socrates?
1676ALCIBIADES: How could we?
1676ALCIBIADES: How so?
1676ALCIBIADES: How was that?
1676ALCIBIADES: I entirely believe you; but what are the sort of pains which are required, Socrates,--can you tell me?
1676ALCIBIADES: In what respect?
1676ALCIBIADES: Of whom are you speaking, Socrates?
1676ALCIBIADES: Once more, what do you mean?
1676ALCIBIADES: Perhaps, Socrates, you are not aware that I was just going to ask you the very same question-- What do you want?
1676ALCIBIADES: The Muses do you mean, Socrates?
1676ALCIBIADES: There again; what do you mean?
1676ALCIBIADES: What am I to consider?
1676ALCIBIADES: What are they?
1676ALCIBIADES: What caution?
1676ALCIBIADES: What do you mean, Socrates; why do you say so?
1676ALCIBIADES: What do you mean?
1676ALCIBIADES: What do you mean?
1676ALCIBIADES: What do you mean?
1676ALCIBIADES: What have you in your thoughts, Socrates?
1676ALCIBIADES: What is it?
1676ALCIBIADES: What is that?
1676ALCIBIADES: What ought I to have said?
1676ALCIBIADES: What qualities?
1676ALCIBIADES: What was that?
1676ALCIBIADES: Who is he, Socrates?
1676ALCIBIADES: Why are you so sure?
1676ALCIBIADES: Why is that?
1676ALCIBIADES: Why, are they not able to teach?
1676ALCIBIADES: Why, did you not say that I know nothing of the just and unjust?
1676ALCIBIADES: Why, what others are there?
1676And are you, Alcibiades, a freeman?
1676And do you know whether you are a freeman or not?
1676And does that which gives it to the state give it also to the individual, so as to make him consistent with himself and with another?
1676And what is the aim of that other good counsel of which you speak?
1676And what is their aim?
1676And what is your motive in annoying me, and always, wherever I am, making a point of coming?
1676And who do them?
1676At what price would you be willing to be deprived of courage?
1676But granting, if I must, that you have perfectly divined my purposes, why is your assistance necessary to the attainment of them?
1676But has he the knowledge which is necessary for carrying them out?
1676But to be good in what?
1676But to command what-- horses or men?
1676But what business?
1676But when is a city better?
1676Can we really be ignorant of the excellent meaning of the Delphian inscription, of which we were just now speaking?
1676Can you tell me why?
1676Did you never observe how great is the property of the Spartan kings?
1676Does Alcibiades know?
1676Does he cut with his tools only or with his hands?
1676Does he not take care of them when he takes care of that which belongs to his feet?
1676Does he take care of himself when he takes care of what belongs to him?
1676Does not the art of measure?
1676Equestrian affairs?
1676For who always does justice to himself, or who writes with equal care at all times?
1676Have you not remarked their absence?
1676He is going to persuade the Athenians-- about what?
1676How can there be agreement about matters which the one party knows, and of which the other is in ignorance?
1676I who put the question, or you who answer me?
1676Is he good in the sense which Alcibiades means, who is also bad?
1676Is it not disgraceful?
1676Is it not true?
1676Is not that clear?
1676Let me begin then by enquiring of you whether you allow that the just is sometimes expedient and sometimes not?
1676Look at the matter thus: which would you rather choose, good or evil?
1676Now is this courage good or evil?
1676Or did you think that you knew?
1676Or is self- knowledge a difficult thing, which few are able to attain?
1676SOCRATES: A difference of just and unjust is the argument of those poems?
1676SOCRATES: A man is a good adviser about anything, not because he has riches, but because he has knowledge?
1676SOCRATES: About that again the diviner will advise better than you will?
1676SOCRATES: Again, he who cherishes his body cherishes not himself, but what belongs to him?
1676SOCRATES: Again; you sometimes accompany the lyre with the song and dance?
1676SOCRATES: All just things are honourable?
1676SOCRATES: And Alcibiades is my hearer?
1676SOCRATES: And I am the lover who goes not away, but remains with you, when you are no longer young and the rest are gone?
1676SOCRATES: And I called the excellence in wrestling gymnastic?
1676SOCRATES: And I in talking use words?
1676SOCRATES: And I was right?
1676SOCRATES: And a man is good in respect of that in which he is wise?
1676SOCRATES: And about number, will not the same person persuade one and persuade many?
1676SOCRATES: And all this I prove out of your own mouth, for I ask and you answer?
1676SOCRATES: And are honourable things sometimes good and sometimes not good, or are they always good?
1676SOCRATES: And are some dishonourable things good?
1676SOCRATES: And are you going to get up in the Athenian assembly, and give them advice about writing?
1676SOCRATES: And are you not aware of the nature of this perplexity, my friend?
1676SOCRATES: And are you now conscious of your own state?
1676SOCRATES: And as much as is best?
1676SOCRATES: And as much as is well?
1676SOCRATES: And at such times as are best?
1676SOCRATES: And before they have virtue, to be commanded by a superior is better for men as well as for children?
1676SOCRATES: And by gymnastic we take care of our hands, and by the art of graving rings of that which belongs to our hands?
1676SOCRATES: And by gymnastic we take care of the body, and by the art of weaving and the other arts we take care of the things of the body?
1676SOCRATES: And by how much greater?
1676SOCRATES: And can not you persuade one man about that of which you can persuade many?
1676SOCRATES: And can there be any matters greater than the just, the honourable, the good, and the expedient?
1676SOCRATES: And can they teach the better who are unable to teach the worse?
1676SOCRATES: And can we ever know what art makes a man better, if we do not know what we are ourselves?
1676SOCRATES: And can you be persuaded better than out of your own mouth?
1676SOCRATES: And can you tell me on what grounds the master of gymnastics would decide, with whom they ought or ought not to close, and when and how?
1676SOCRATES: And did you not say, that if I had not spoken first, you were on the point of coming to me, and enquiring why I only remained?
1676SOCRATES: And do we by shoemaking take care of our feet, or by some other art which improves the feet?
1676SOCRATES: And do we know of any part of our souls more divine than that which has to do with wisdom and knowledge?
1676SOCRATES: And do you know anything but what you have learned of others, or found out yourself?
1676SOCRATES: And do you know how to ascend into heaven?
1676SOCRATES: And do you know how to escape out of a state which I do not even like to name to my beauty?
1676SOCRATES: And do you mean by friendship agreement or disagreement?
1676SOCRATES: And do you think and perplex yourself about the preparation of food: or do you leave that to some one who understands the art?
1676SOCRATES: And do you think that you will sustain any injury if you take care of yourself?
1676SOCRATES: And does he use his eyes in cutting leather?
1676SOCRATES: And does not a man use the whole body?
1676SOCRATES: And does the body rule over itself?
1676SOCRATES: And evil in respect of that in which he is unwise?
1676SOCRATES: And failing, will he not be miserable?
1676SOCRATES: And for as long a time as is better?
1676SOCRATES: And happiness is a good?
1676SOCRATES: And have I not been the questioner all through?
1676SOCRATES: And he who acts well is happy?
1676SOCRATES: And he who knows not the things which belong to himself, will in like manner be ignorant of the things which belong to others?
1676SOCRATES: And how can you say,''What was I to do''?
1676SOCRATES: And how does this happen?
1676SOCRATES: And if any one has fallen in love with the person of Alcibiades, he loves not Alcibiades, but the belongings of Alcibiades?
1676SOCRATES: And if he falls into error will he not fail both in his public and private capacity?
1676SOCRATES: And if he knows not the affairs of others, he will not know the affairs of states?
1676SOCRATES: And if so, not he who has riches, but he who has wisdom, is delivered from his misery?
1676SOCRATES: And if they know, they must agree together and not differ?
1676SOCRATES: And if we did not know our own belongings, neither should we know the belongings of our belongings?
1676SOCRATES: And if we want to instruct any one in them, we shall be right in sending him to be taught by our friends the many?
1676SOCRATES: And in like manner the harper and gymnastic- master?
1676SOCRATES: And in the same way the instrument of the harper is to be distinguished from the harper himself?
1676SOCRATES: And in this case, too, is your judgment perplexed?
1676SOCRATES: And is not the same person able to persuade one individual singly and many individuals of the things which he knows?
1676SOCRATES: And is self- knowledge such an easy thing, and was he to be lightly esteemed who inscribed the text on the temple at Delphi?
1676SOCRATES: And is the art of the pilot evil counsel?
1676SOCRATES: And is the good expedient or not?
1676SOCRATES: And life and courage are the extreme opposites of death and cowardice?
1676SOCRATES: And more than four years ago you were a child-- were you not?
1676SOCRATES: And most mischievous and most disgraceful when having to do with the greatest matters?
1676SOCRATES: And now let me ask you what is the art with which we take care of ourselves?
1676SOCRATES: And private individuals?
1676SOCRATES: And self- knowledge we agree to be wisdom?
1676SOCRATES: And so you will act rightly and well?
1676SOCRATES: And sometimes honourable and sometimes not?
1676SOCRATES: And suppose that you were going to steer a ship into action, would you only aim at being the best pilot on board?
1676SOCRATES: And taking proper care means improving?
1676SOCRATES: And talking and using words have, I suppose, the same meaning?
1676SOCRATES: And that of which you can persuade either is clearly what you know?
1676SOCRATES: And that which is better is also nobler?
1676SOCRATES: And that which uses is different from that which is used?
1676SOCRATES: And the courage which is shown in the rescue is one thing, and the death another?
1676SOCRATES: And the good is expedient?
1676SOCRATES: And the greatest goods you would be most ready to choose, and would least like to be deprived of them?
1676SOCRATES: And the happy are those who obtain good?
1676SOCRATES: And the honourable is the good?
1676SOCRATES: And the next step will be to take care of the soul, and look to that?
1676SOCRATES: And the reason why you involuntarily contradict yourself is clearly that you are ignorant?
1676SOCRATES: And the same art improves the feet which improves the rest of the body?
1676SOCRATES: And the same holds of the balance?
1676SOCRATES: And the shoe in like manner to the foot?
1676SOCRATES: And the soul rules?
1676SOCRATES: And the user is not the same as the thing which he uses?
1676SOCRATES: And the user of the body is the soul?
1676SOCRATES: And these, as you were saying, are what perplex you?
1676SOCRATES: And they are honourable in so far as they are good, and dishonourable in so far as they are evil?
1676SOCRATES: And they are not in the habit of deliberating about wrestling, in the assembly?
1676SOCRATES: And they are what you would most desire to have, and their opposites you would least desire?
1676SOCRATES: And they obtain good by acting well and honourably?
1676SOCRATES: And they ought to go to war with those against whom it is better to go to war?
1676SOCRATES: And this is the reason why their arts are accounted vulgar, and are not such as a good man would practise?
1676SOCRATES: And this will be he who knows number, or the arithmetician?
1676SOCRATES: And two years ago, and three years ago, and four years ago, you knew all the same?
1676SOCRATES: And virtue to a freeman?
1676SOCRATES: And was not the art of which I spoke gymnastic?
1676SOCRATES: And we admit that the user is not the same with the things which he uses?
1676SOCRATES: And what are the objects in looking at which we see ourselves?
1676SOCRATES: And what art makes each individual agree with himself?
1676SOCRATES: And what art makes each of us agree with himself about the comparative length of the span and of the cubit?
1676SOCRATES: And what do you call the art of fellow- citizens?
1676SOCRATES: And what is nobler is more becoming?
1676SOCRATES: And what is that of which the absence or presence improves and preserves the order of the city?
1676SOCRATES: And what is the art which improves our shoes?
1676SOCRATES: And what sort of an art is this?
1676SOCRATES: And what will become of those for whom he is acting?
1676SOCRATES: And what would you say of a state?
1676SOCRATES: And when did you discover them-- not, surely, at the time when you thought that you knew them?
1676SOCRATES: And when did you think that you were ignorant-- if you consider, you will find that there never was such a time?
1676SOCRATES: And when individuals are doing their own work, are they doing what is just or unjust?
1676SOCRATES: And when individuals do what is just in the state, is there no friendship among them?
1676SOCRATES: And when it is better?
1676SOCRATES: And when we take care of our shoes, do we not take care of our feet?
1676SOCRATES: And when you speak of gentlemen, do you mean the wise or the unwise?
1676SOCRATES: And will not he who is ignorant fall into error?
1676SOCRATES: And would a woman agree with a man about the science of arms, which she has never learned?
1676SOCRATES: And would you advise the Athenians to go to war with the just or with the unjust?
1676SOCRATES: And would you have been willing to learn or to examine what you supposed that you knew?
1676SOCRATES: And would you have ever learned or discovered anything, if you had not been willing either to learn of others or to examine yourself?
1676SOCRATES: And would you say that they knew the things about which they differ?
1676SOCRATES: And you must give the citizens virtue, if you mean to administer their affairs rightly or nobly?
1676SOCRATES: And you the answerer?
1676SOCRATES: And you would have a proof that they were bad teachers of these matters, if you saw them at variance?
1676SOCRATES: And you would term the rescue of a friend in battle honourable, in as much as courage does a good work?
1676SOCRATES: And you, whom he taught, can do the same?
1676SOCRATES: And, O my friend, is not the condition of a slave to be avoided?
1676SOCRATES: And, if I may recur to another old instance, what art enables them to rule over their fellow- singers?
1676SOCRATES: Are not those who are well born and well bred most likely to be perfect in virtue?
1676SOCRATES: Are they ruling over the signal- men who give the time to the rowers?
1676SOCRATES: As I am, with you?
1676SOCRATES: As I was saying before, you will look only at what is bright and divine, and act with a view to them?
1676SOCRATES: As bad as death, I suppose?
1676SOCRATES: Ask yourself; are you in any perplexity about things of which you are ignorant?
1676SOCRATES: At any rate, thus much has been admitted, that the art is not one which makes any of our possessions, but which makes ourselves better?
1676SOCRATES: But can a man give that which he has not?
1676SOCRATES: But can a man, Alcibiades, agree with a woman about the spinning of wool, which she understands and he does not?
1676SOCRATES: But can they be said to understand that about which they are quarrelling to the death?
1676SOCRATES: But did we not say that the actual ruling principle of the body is man?
1676SOCRATES: But evil because of the death which ensues?
1676SOCRATES: But evil in respect of death and wounds?
1676SOCRATES: But good counsel?
1676SOCRATES: But he who cherishes his money, cherishes neither himself nor his belongings, but is in a stage yet further removed from himself?
1676SOCRATES: But he who loves the soul goes not away, as long as the soul follows after virtue?
1676SOCRATES: But he who loves your soul is the true lover?
1676SOCRATES: But how is this, friend Alcibiades?
1676SOCRATES: But if we have no self- knowledge and no wisdom, can we ever know our own good and evil?
1676SOCRATES: But in respect of the making of garments he is unwise?
1676SOCRATES: But is this always the case, and is a man necessarily perplexed about that of which he has no knowledge?
1676SOCRATES: But looking at anything else either in man or in the world, and not to what resembles this, it will not see itself?
1676SOCRATES: But may we say that the union of the two rules over the body, and consequently that this is man?
1676SOCRATES: But over men?
1676SOCRATES: But should we ever have known what art makes a shoe better, if we did not know a shoe?
1676SOCRATES: But since neither the body, nor the union of the two, is man, either man has no real existence, or the soul is man?
1676SOCRATES: But the tool is not the same as the cutter and user of the tool?
1676SOCRATES: But what is the other agreement of which you speak, and about what?
1676SOCRATES: But when people think that they do not know, they entrust their business to others?
1676SOCRATES: But would you say that the good are the same as the bad?
1676SOCRATES: But you would admit, Alcibiades, that to take proper care of a thing is a correct expression?
1676SOCRATES: But, perhaps you mean that they rule over flute- players, who lead the singers and use the services of the dancers?
1676SOCRATES: Cities, then, if they are to be happy, do not want walls, or triremes, or docks, or numbers, or size, Alcibiades, without virtue?
1676SOCRATES: Come, now, I beseech you, tell me with whom you are conversing?--with whom but with me?
1676SOCRATES: Did not I ask, and you answer the question?
1676SOCRATES: Do you not see, then, that mistakes in life and practice are likewise to be attributed to the ignorance which has conceit of knowledge?
1676SOCRATES: Do you remember our admissions about the just?
1676SOCRATES: Do you see the reason why, or shall I tell you?
1676SOCRATES: Do you take refuge in them?
1676SOCRATES: For the art which takes care of our belongings appears not to be the same as that which takes care of ourselves?
1676SOCRATES: For the builder will advise better than you will about that?
1676SOCRATES: Have we not made an advance?
1676SOCRATES: Have you not the intention which I attribute to you?
1676SOCRATES: He uses his hands too?
1676SOCRATES: He whose knowledge only extends to the body, knows the things of a man, and not the man himself?
1676SOCRATES: He will not know what he is doing?
1676SOCRATES: He would not go to war, because it would be unlawful?
1676SOCRATES: How?
1676SOCRATES: I am asking if you ever knew any one who did what was dishonourable and yet just?
1676SOCRATES: I suppose that the use of arms would be regarded by you as a male accomplishment?
1676SOCRATES: I suppose that we begin to act when we think that we know what we are doing?
1676SOCRATES: I suppose, because you do not understand shipbuilding:--is that the reason?
1676SOCRATES: I will explain; the shoemaker, for example, uses a square tool, and a circular tool, and other tools for cutting?
1676SOCRATES: In that mirror you will see and know yourselves and your own good?
1676SOCRATES: In the first place, will you be more likely to take care of yourself, if you are in a wholesome fear and dread of them, or if you are not?
1676SOCRATES: In what sort of virtue?
1676SOCRATES: Individuals are agreed with one another about this; and states, equally?
1676SOCRATES: Is anything more required to prove that the soul is man?
1676SOCRATES: Is that a question which a magnanimous soul should ask?
1676SOCRATES: Is this because you think life and courage the best, and death and cowardice the worst?
1676SOCRATES: It is subject, as we were saying?
1676SOCRATES: Leaving the care of our bodies and of our properties to others?
1676SOCRATES: Let me ask you whether better natures are likely to be found in noble races or not in noble races?
1676SOCRATES: Let me take the hand as an illustration; does not a ring belong to the finger, and to the finger only?
1676SOCRATES: Look at the matter yet once more in a further light: he who acts honourably acts well?
1676SOCRATES: No, indeed, and we ought to take counsel together: for do we not wish to be as good as possible?
1676SOCRATES: Nor about divination?
1676SOCRATES: Nor an economist?
1676SOCRATES: Nor are states well administered, when individuals do their own work?
1676SOCRATES: Nor can there be friendship, if friendship is agreement?
1676SOCRATES: Nor men by women when they do their own work?
1676SOCRATES: Nor should we know that we were the persons to whom anything belonged, if we did not know ourselves?
1676SOCRATES: Nor should we know what art makes a ring better, if we did not know a ring?
1676SOCRATES: Not, surely, over horses?
1676SOCRATES: Now let us put the case generally: whenever there is a question and answer, who is the speaker,--the questioner or the answerer?
1676SOCRATES: Now the question which I asked was whether you conceive the user to be always different from that which he uses?
1676SOCRATES: Or about the touch of the lyre?
1676SOCRATES: Or on a voyage?
1676SOCRATES: Or reaping the harvest?
1676SOCRATES: Or suppose that I ask and you tell me the letters which make up the name Socrates, which of us is the speaker?
1676SOCRATES: So you said before, and I must again ask, of whom?
1676SOCRATES: That is to say, I, Socrates, am talking?
1676SOCRATES: That was not what you were saying before; and what do you mean now by affirming that friendship exists when there is no agreement?
1676SOCRATES: That would be the business of the teacher of the chorus?
1676SOCRATES: That would be the office of the pilot?
1676SOCRATES: The bad, then, are miserable?
1676SOCRATES: The husbandmen and the other craftsmen are very far from knowing themselves, for they would seem not even to know their own belongings?
1676SOCRATES: The lover of the body goes away when the flower of youth fades?
1676SOCRATES: The shoemaker, for example, is wise in respect of the making of shoes?
1676SOCRATES: Then a man is not the same as his own body?
1676SOCRATES: Then about what concerns of theirs will you advise them?
1676SOCRATES: Then acting well is a good?
1676SOCRATES: Then by gymnastic we take care of our feet, and by shoemaking of that which belongs to our feet?
1676SOCRATES: Then by shoemaking we take care of our shoes?
1676SOCRATES: Then he is good in that?
1676SOCRATES: Then he who bids a man know himself, would have him know his soul?
1676SOCRATES: Then he who is not wise and good can not be happy?
1676SOCRATES: Then how can they teach them?
1676SOCRATES: Then if temperance is the knowledge of self, in respect of his art none of them is temperate?
1676SOCRATES: Then if the eye is to see itself, it must look at the eye, and at that part of the eye where sight which is the virtue of the eye resides?
1676SOCRATES: Then in taking care of what belongs to you, you do not take care of yourself?
1676SOCRATES: Then in that he is bad?
1676SOCRATES: Then in their knowledge there is no agreement of women and men?
1676SOCRATES: Then let me put the matter in another way: what do you call the Goddesses who are the patronesses of art?
1676SOCRATES: Then let us compare our antecedents with those of the Lacedaemonian and Persian kings; are they inferior to us in descent?
1676SOCRATES: Then neither the physician regarded as a physician, nor the trainer regarded as a trainer, knows himself?
1676SOCRATES: Then such a man can never be a statesman?
1676SOCRATES: Then that is not the principle which we are seeking?
1676SOCRATES: Then the art which takes care of each thing is different from that which takes care of the belongings of each thing?
1676SOCRATES: Then the money- maker has really ceased to be occupied with his own concerns?
1676SOCRATES: Then the rescue of one''s friends is honourable in one point of view, but evil in another?
1676SOCRATES: Then the shoemaker and the harper are to be distinguished from the hands and feet which they use?
1676SOCRATES: Then there was a time when you thought that you did not know what you are now supposed to know?
1676SOCRATES: Then they may be expected to be good teachers of these things?
1676SOCRATES: Then this is ignorance of the disgraceful sort which is mischievous?
1676SOCRATES: Then to the bad man slavery is more becoming, because better?
1676SOCRATES: Then upon this view of the matter the same man is good and also bad?
1676SOCRATES: Then vice is only suited to a slave?
1676SOCRATES: Then we may truly conceive that you and I are conversing with one another, soul to soul?
1676SOCRATES: Then what affairs?
1676SOCRATES: Then what are the deliberations in which you propose to advise them?
1676SOCRATES: Then what do you mean by this friendship or agreement about which we must be wise and discreet in order that we may be good men?
1676SOCRATES: Then what is the meaning of being able to rule over men who use other men?
1676SOCRATES: Then what shall we say of the shoemaker?
1676SOCRATES: Then what will be the subject of deliberation about which you will be justified in getting up and advising them?
1676SOCRATES: Then who is speaking?
1676SOCRATES: Then whom do you call the good?
1676SOCRATES: Then women are not loved by men when they do their own work?
1676SOCRATES: Then you are a good adviser about the things which you know?
1676SOCRATES: Then you are not perplexed about what you do not know, if you know that you do not know it?
1676SOCRATES: Then you did not learn them by discovering them?
1676SOCRATES: Then you suppose yourself even when a child to have known the nature of just and unjust?
1676SOCRATES: Then you think that cowardice is the worst of evils?
1676SOCRATES: Then you, too, would address them on principles of justice?
1676SOCRATES: Then, Alcibiades, the just is expedient?
1676SOCRATES: Then, if the argument holds, what we find to be honourable we shall also find to be good?
1676SOCRATES: Then, upon your view, women and men have two sorts of knowledge?
1676SOCRATES: There is no subject about which they are more at variance?
1676SOCRATES: They could not teach you how to play at draughts, which you would acknowledge( would you not) to be a much smaller matter than justice?
1676SOCRATES: Those of whom you speak are ruling over men who are using the services of other men?
1676SOCRATES: Very good; and can you tell me how long it is since you thought that you did not know the nature of the just and the unjust?
1676SOCRATES: Very good; but did you ever know a man wise in anything who was unable to impart his particular wisdom?
1676SOCRATES: Very true; and is there not something of the nature of a mirror in our own eyes?
1676SOCRATES: Well, and did Pericles make any one wise; did he begin by making his sons wise?
1676SOCRATES: Well, and in reference to your own case, do you mean to remain as you are, or will you take some pains about yourself?
1676SOCRATES: Well, but are the many agreed with themselves, or with one another, about the justice or injustice of men and things?
1676SOCRATES: Well, but did he make your brother, Cleinias, wise?
1676SOCRATES: Well, but do you imagine that the many would differ about the nature of wood and stone?
1676SOCRATES: Well, naval affairs?
1676SOCRATES: What art makes cities agree about numbers?
1676SOCRATES: What is he, then?
1676SOCRATES: What is the inference?
1676SOCRATES: What sort of affairs?
1676SOCRATES: What things?
1676SOCRATES: What would you say of courage?
1676SOCRATES: What, do you not wish to be persuaded?
1676SOCRATES: When does a man take care of his feet?
1676SOCRATES: When it is well to do so?
1676SOCRATES: When they are doing something or nothing?
1676SOCRATES: When they are sick?
1676SOCRATES: Which is gymnastic?
1676SOCRATES: Which of us now says that two is more than one?
1676SOCRATES: Which of us, then, was the speaker?
1676SOCRATES: Who are good in what?
1676SOCRATES: Who, then, are the persons who make mistakes?
1676SOCRATES: Why, you know that knowledge is the first qualification of any teacher?
1676SOCRATES: Why, you surely know that our city goes to war now and then with the Lacedaemonians and with the great king?
1676SOCRATES: Will you be troubled at having questions to answer?
1676SOCRATES: Yes, I do; and what is the name of the art which is called after them?
1676SOCRATES: You and the state, if you act wisely and justly, will act according to the will of God?
1676SOCRATES: You do, then, mean, as I was saying, to come forward in a little while in the character of an adviser of the Athenians?
1676SOCRATES: You mean about shipbuilding, for example, when the question is what sort of ships they ought to build?
1676SOCRATES: You mean that about them we should have recourse to horsemen?
1676SOCRATES: You mean that we should have recourse to sailors about them?
1676SOCRATES: You mean, when they deliberate with whom they ought to make peace, and with whom they ought to go to war, and in what manner?
1676SOCRATES: You would feel no doubt; and for this reason-- because you would know?
1676Suppose I were to ask you which is the greater number, two or one; you would reply''two''?
1676Suppose that I ask you again, as I did just now, What art makes men know how to rule over their fellow- sailors,--how would you answer?
1676Suppose you were to ask me, what is that of which the presence or absence improves or preserves the order of the body?
1676Surely not about building?
1676Then has he enquired for himself?
1676They can not, of course, be those who know?
1676To take an instance: Would he not say that they should wrestle with those against whom it is best to wrestle?
1676To what does the word refer?
1676Was not that said?
1676Were you then in a state of conscious ignorance and enquiry?
1676What do you say to a year ago?
1676What is that by the presence or absence of which the state is improved and better managed and ordered?
1676Who is he?
1676Why, he asks, should he not learn of them the nature of justice, as he has learned the Greek language of them?
1676Will he not be likely to have his constitution ruined?
1676Will you tell me how?
1676Would not his meaning be:--That the eye should look at that in which it would see itself?
1676You would say the same?
1676and do they not run to fetch the same thing, when they want a piece of wood or a stone?
1676and if men, under what circumstances?
1676and when does he take care?
1676are they not agreed if you ask them what they are?
1676if at the time you did not know whether you were wronged or not?
1676what art can give that agreement?

14020And is there none to whom you dare confess, that the more you get the more you crave?
14020And is your heart pure, while it is swollen with the vice?

14020And therefore do you esteem yourself a Paulus or a Messala?
14020And what the hideous looks of all these[ hags, fixed] upon me alone?
14020Are they all contemptible in comparison of the Campus Martius and the river Tiber?

14020Do ye hear?
14020Do you ask why?
14020Do you grow milder and better as old age approaches?

14020Or has Canidia dressed this baleful food?
14020Or shall I endure this toil with such a courage, as becomes effeminate men to bear?
14020Or should not I rather suppose, that all the world are to see my faults; secure, and cautious[ never to err] but with hope of being pardoned?
14020Or tell me, what is it to the purpose of that man, who lives within the compass of nature, whether he plow a hundred or a thousand acres?
14020Or whether the ill- patched reconciliation in vain closes, and is rent asunder again?
14020Or why are the swords drawn, that were[ so lately] sheathed?
14020Or why do not my cheeks return, unimpaired, to these my present sentiments?

14020That I should lead the life of Naevius, or in such a manner as a Nomentanus?"
14020This too frequently drives away and deters even an adventurous poet?
14020Though you be like highwaymen, Coelus and Byrrhus, I am not[ a common accuser], like Caprius and Sulcius; why should you be afraid of me?

14020What-- when, picking the pippins from the Picenian apples, you rejoice if haply you have hit the vaulted roof; are you yourself?
14020What?

14020What?
14020What?
14020What[ do you do], when my judgment contradicts itself?
14020When Maenius railed at Novius in his absence:"Hark ye,"says a certain person,"are you ignorant of yourself?
14020When he shall have[ at last] released you from your long servitude and anxiety; and being certainly awake, you shall hear[ this article in his will]?
14020When he still followed me;"Would you any thing?"
14020When you dispatch your wife with a rope, and your mother with poison, are you right in your head?
14020When your passions are inflamed, and a common gratification is at hand, would you rather be consumed with desire than possess it?
14020Whence do you think this happens?
14020Whence should the virgin, stranger to a husband, with the chaste boys, learn the solemn prayer, had not the muse given a poet?
14020Whence, and whither, Catius?
14020Whence, whither am I come?
14020Whereas if novelty had been detested by the Greeks as much as by us, what at this time would there have been ancient?
14020Wherefore, when I have removed myself from the city to the mountains and my castle,( what can I polish, preferably to my satires and prosaic muse?)
14020Whether it were so great?
14020Whether shall I, at your command, pursue my ease, which can not be pleasing unless in your company?
14020Which is the greater madman of these two?
14020While you leave us to take as much out of a moderate store, why should you extol your granaries, more than our corn- baskets?
14020Whither are you going?
14020Whither is your beauty gone?
14020Whither your graceful deportment?
14020Whither, O Bacchus, art thou hurrying me, replete with your influence?
14020Whither, whither, impious men are you rushing?
14020Who can fear the Parthian?
14020Who can move his limbs with softer grace[ in the dance]?
14020Who cares for the war of fierce Spain?
14020Who diffuses into distant ages his deeds in war and peace?
14020Who does not rather[ celebrate] thee, Father Bacchus, and thee, comely Venus?
14020Who is so foolish an admirer of Lucilius, that he would not own this?
14020Who knows whether the gods above will add to this day''s reckoning the space of to- morrow?
14020Who takes care to quickly weave the chaplets of fresh parsely or myrtle?
14020Who then is a good man?
14020Who then is sound?
14020Who will tempt the vagrant wanton Lyde from her house?
14020Who would not?
14020Who, after wine, complains of the hardships of war or of poverty?
14020Who, the frozen Scythian?
14020Who, the progeny that rough Germany produces, while Caesar is in safety?
14020Whoever, by becoming an exile from his country, escaped likewise from himself?
14020Whom does false honor delight, or lying calumny terrify, except the vicious and sickly- minded?
14020Whom have not plentiful cups made eloquent?
14020Whom have they not[ made] free and easy under pinching poverty?
14020Whom of the gods shall the people invoke to the affairs of the sinking empire?
14020Whom shall the Venus pronounce to be master of the revel?
14020Whose name shall the sportive echo resound, either in the shady borders of Helicon, or on the top of Pindus, or on cold Haemus?
14020Whose son is he?"
14020Why are these compositions less efficacious than those of the barbarian Medea?
14020Why do not you, wretch that you are, bestow something on your dear country, out of so vast a hoard?
14020Why do we change our own for climates heated by another sun?
14020Why do we delay to go on ship- board under an auspicious omen?
14020Why do we, brave for a short season, aim at many things?
14020Why do you ask?
14020Why do you go on?
14020Why do you hesitate?"
14020Why do you laugh?
14020Why do you not, if you can, turn your empty yelpings hither, and attack me, who will bite again?
14020Why do you pour forth your entreaties to ears that are closely shut[ against them]?
14020Why do you send tokens, why billet- doux to me, and not to some vigorous youth, and of a taste not nice?
14020Why does he neither, in military accouterments, appear mounted among his equals; nor manage the Gallic steed with bitted reins?
14020Why does my fluent tongue falter between my words with an unseemly silence?
14020Why dost thoti kill me with thy complaints?
14020Why fears he to touch the yellow Tiber?
14020Why hates he the sunny plain, though inured to bear the dust and heat?
14020Why is a tenderness for my belly too destructive for me?
14020Why is the pipe hung up with the silent lyre?
14020Why many words?
14020Why not?
14020Why should I exchange my Sabine vale for wealth, which is attended with more trouble?
14020Why should I mention every particular?
14020Why should I multiply words?
14020Why should this frenzy affect the obstreperous poets in a less degree?
14020Why shuns he the oil of the ring more cautiously than viper''s blood?
14020Why so, Stoic?
14020Why so?
14020Why who but Callimachus?
14020Why, out of false modesty, do I prefer being ignorant to being learned?
14020Will you not prefer men and the city to the savage woods?
14020With what disorder of the mind is she stricken?
14020With what noose can I hold this Proteus, varying thus his forms?
14020With what prayer shall the sacred virgins importune Vesta, who is now inattentive to their hymns?
14020Would you affront the circumcised Jews?"
14020Would you have me also take my share of stout Falernian?
14020Would you have me, amid so great noise both by night and day,[ attempt] to sing, and trace the difficult footsteps of the poets?
14020Would you know why the ungrateful reader extols and is fond of many works at home, unjustly decries them without doors?
14020Would you live happily?
14020Wretched are those, to whom thou untried seemest fair?
14020You are not covetous,[ you say]:--go to.--What then?
14020You may ask how I, unwarlike and infirm, can assist your labors by mine?
14020You must also write me word of this, whether Munatiua is of as much concern to you as he ought to be?
14020[ Thus, does] this friend of yours live more sparingly than ordinarily?
14020[ To what end all this?]
14020_ A smart description of a miser ridiculously acting the extravagant._ How did the entertainment of that happy fellow Nasidienus please you?
14020and how is it obtained?
14020and how miserably Barrus?
14020are you setting about appeasing envy by deserting virtue?
14020cries he,"if the horn were not cut off your forehead, what would you not do; since, maimed as you are, you bully at such a rate?"
14020do you think that arduous and admirable, which was done by Pitholeo the Rhodian?
14020has any one a better scheme to advise?
14020has any soldier of Crassus lived, a degraded husband with a barbarian wife?
14020if an untimely blow hurry away thee, a part of my soul, why do I the other moiety remain, my value lost, nor any longer whole?
14020if our former love returns, and unites by a brazen yoke us once parted?
14020mad after he had murdered his parent; and that he was not driven mad by the wicked Furies, before he warmed his sharp steel in his mother''s throat?
14020one that died a month or a year later, among whom is he to be ranked?
14020or because the trifler Fannius, that hanger- on to Hermogenes Tigellius, attempts to hurt me?
14020or do you think to impose yourself upon us a person we do not know?"
14020or does a pleasing frenzy delude me?
14020or has the bird the same beauty when dressed?"
14020or shall I rather think of putting an end to my pains?
14020or what did she not say?
14020or whither your bloom?
14020roars he with a loud voice: and,"Do you witness the arrest?"
14020was the sea at that time less nutritive of turbots?
14020what does it matter, whether I die of a disease, or by theft and rapine?
14020when he has heard[ of such knavery]?
14020when thirst parches your jaws, are you solicitous for golden cups to drink out of?
14020when you are hungry, do you despise everything but peacock and turbot?
14020where shall I find one so brave and so faithful?"
14020whether it was tossed between the bridges or at the mouth of the Tuscan river?
14020which of the two shall depend upon himself in exigences with most certainty?
14020whither are you going?"
14020why do you stand?"
14020why was not my present inclination the same, when I was young?
14020why, Ligurinus, does the tear every now and then trickle down my cheeks?
14020will Caesar give the lands he promised the soldiers, in Sicily, or in Italy?"
9060''At peace?''
9060''At what point_ do_ your charges begin?''
9060''Certain men,''it will be said,''went as ambassadors to Philip yonder-- Philocrates, Aeschines, Phrynon, and Demosthenes; and, what happened?
9060''Is it freedom?
9060''Well''( does someone say?
9060''What then,''you will ask me,''are these resources, which are non- existent now, but will be ours then?
9060''What?''
9060''what can I do to please you?''
9060''what may I propose for you?''
9060),''do you move that this money should form a war- fund?''
9060Again, do you not suppose that in Megara there was someone who was a thief and who embezzled public funds?
9060Again, while Olynthus was standing, were there others of the same character there?
9060And convicted by whom?
9060And do you not see that the very titles that Philip bears are utterly alien to freedom?
9060And have not these men contravened the terms of the resolution?
9060And how do you think of this?
9060And how is maintenance to be provided for these?
9060And how was this?
9060And how?
9060And the ambassadors of Thebes gained-- what?
9060And the men whom we promised to be ready to save, if they went to war-- are they not now at war?
9060And then, when he has led you off the point by his speech, he will brag of it, and go about saying,"Well?
9060And to what end?
9060And was this all?
9060And what difference does it make to you?
9060And what is that to the 1,200 camels which( as these gentlemen tell us) are bringing the king''s money for him?
9060And what is this?
9060And what next?
9060And what was the meaning of it?
9060And what will you gain besides this?
9060And where is the proof of this?
9060And who, would you say, possessed the loudest voice and could enunciate whatever he pleased most clearly?
9060And why, even to this hour, do you praise the man who has done us all this evil?''
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060And why?
9060Are not our possessions in his hands?
9060Are we then to wait for that?
9060Are you not a hack?
9060Are you not a sophist?
9060Ask yourselves what penalty can be found, which will adequately atone for all these crimes?
9060But I heard the question,''At what point on his coast are we to anchor?''
9060But if Philip captures Olynthus, who is to hinder him from marching to Athens?
9060But if he fails, is he to plead palliations and excuses?
9060But if its fulfilment was prevented because they perceived it in time, who was it that betrayed the secret?
9060But of what sort_ are_ the men who commit crimes of such a character and magnitude?
9060But there is a second which is of no less importance than the first, and what is this?
9060But what Amphictyons?
9060But what must we think of all that is happening at this present time?
9060But when he hears that they address you, and enjoy a high reputation with you, and prosecute others, what is he to do?
9060But when neither the one nor the other are to be found, will you not avenge yourselves upon him?
9060But where did each of these exercise his primacy?
9060But why do I speak of all this now?
9060But why is he responsible for dates?
9060But''where are the salt, the table, the libations that we shared?''
9060Can you not imagine how readily he would march against us?
9060Could there be any stranger news than that a man of Macedonia is defeating Athenians in war, and ordering the affairs of the Hellenes?
9060Did he see any meanness in him, or any dislike towards himself?
9060Did they expect that the restorer of their Amphictyonic rights would take their own revenues from them for himself?
9060Did they expect, do you think, to suffer as they have done?
9060Did they not ask them to give success in war, and victory, to themselves and their allies, and the contrary to the allies of the Phocians?
9060Do we then need witnesses?
9060Do you imagine that they do not foresee this themselves?
9060Do you not see how he has treated me?
9060Do you think that all is right, when you dispatch nothing but empty ships and somebody''s hopes?
9060Do you think that the successes of the Phocians against the Thebans in the war, or the successes of Philip against you, were the more considerable?
9060Do you want to go round asking one another,''Is there any news?''
9060Does any one accuse Aeschines on that ground?
9060Does any one allege that Aeschines introduced the proposal of peace, or that he committed any crime in bringing commissioners here to make it?
9060Does any one wish to bring any charge against him in regard to things that were done in the course of the war?
9060Does it show any resemblance or similarity to what Aeschines predicted in his report?
9060Does not the decree bid them administer the oath to the magistrates in the several cities?
9060Does not the decree speak of peace''for the Athenians and the allies of the Athenians?''
9060Does not the resolution forbid them''to meet Philip anywhere alone?''
9060Does that mean that they grant an indemnity to any of their number who is guilty of crime?
9060For honestly, if you let him go, what will be said of you?
9060For instance, were we at war with Philip?
9060For the questions upon which the examination of an ambassador turns are these:''What have you effected?
9060For what is this?
9060For what was his report on that occasion?
9060For where government is based upon speeches, how can it be carried on in security, if the speeches are not true?
9060For who that was on his trial and had any defence to make, would prefer to accuse another?
9060For who was it that brought Ischander forward before you originally, stating that he had come from the friends of Athens in Arcadia?
9060For who will prefer to lose his life and property, rather than contribute a part of his substance to save himself and the remainder of it?
9060Has not the man seized every position from us already?
9060How can it be done?
9060How can perdition seize Philip, when you are trying to save those who take bribes from him?
9060How could a man have treated you more outrageously than this?
9060How could any contradiction be greater than this?
9060How could he have done so?
9060How could it be done?
9060How could vileness or desperation go further than this?
9060How do matters stand to- day, thanks to these worthy persons?
9060How long had Timarchus been in the habit of addressing you?
9060How then can his conduct and mine have been the same?
9060How then can this be achieved?
9060How then shall we use this opportunity, men of Athens?
9060How then, he asked, can I avoid open falsehood, and yet accomplish all that I wish without appearing perjured?
9060I was afraid, when, according to your own statement, there was nothing to be afraid of, and no crime had been committed?
9060If he becomes master of this country too, will not our fate be the most shameful in the world?
9060Is he not a barbarian?
9060Is he not anything that you choose to call him?
9060Is he to seek to spend much, when he can spend less?
9060Is he trying to annihilate the Spartans, the existing enemies of Thebes, and at the same time protecting the Phocians, whom he himself has ruined?
9060Is it in the whitewashing of the battlements, the mending of the roads, the fountains, and all such trumperies?
9060Is it not all clear, men of Athens?
9060Is it pleasant to have many enemies?
9060Is the advice disagreeable?
9060Is there a man among you, men of Athens, who considers or studies the steps by which Philip, weak enough at first, has become so strong?
9060Is there any likeness, any resemblance, to old times?
9060Is there, gentlemen of the jury, one of the ambassadors whom Philip sent, whose statue in bronze you would erect in the market- place?
9060It is indeed worth his while( is it not?)
9060Must they not then either assist us to recover Oropus, or else be regarded as the basest of mankind?
9060Must we then dread a man whose friendship, thanks to Fortune and Heaven, has proved so unprofitable, and his enmity so advantageous?
9060Nay, one to whom you would give maintenance in the Town Hall, or any other of those complimentary grants with which you honour your benefactors?
9060Nay, why mention these things?
9060Next, what use did he make of his power?
9060Now is it possible that the man who had formerly spoken as Aeschines did, should now have dared to speak in such a way, if he had not been corrupted?
9060Now what is this force to be?
9060Of what, in the first place, did Philip become master, when the Peace was concluded?
9060On what ground can you do so?
9060Once more, does any one blame Aeschines for this?
9060Or would you have me assume a payment of one- twelfth, 500 talents?
9060Pleasant?
9060Shall we not embark?
9060Shall we not sail to the enemy''s country?
9060The Phocians?
9060The Thebans?
9060To what end?
9060Was it not Eubulus who proposed the decree, while the ambassador to the Peloponnese was the defendant Aeschines?
9060Was it then through them that Olynthus was destroyed?
9060Was there any quarrel between me and Aeschines?
9060Well, had any of them anything to do with the overthrow of the democracy there?
9060Well, has any such person been shown to be responsible for the recent crisis there?
9060Were there any men in Elis who stole public funds?
9060What are you waiting for?
9060What followed?
9060What have you reported?
9060What is it that we must guard against?
9060What is it then that I regard with apprehension?
9060What more could we desire?
9060What resources have we immediately at our command?
9060What then are these objects?
9060What then do I allege, and at what point does my accusation begin?
9060What then is the life of which you propose to speak?
9060What then must we think will be the extent of our loss, if ever war comes to our doors?
9060What then were their sentiments on this matter?
9060What then?
9060What then?
9060What were the consequences to the ambassadors who brought these things about?
9060What?
9060What?
9060What?
9060What?
9060When, if not now, will you do your duty?
9060Where have you lived it?
9060Where is the Euthycrates,[n] or the Lasthenes, or the traitor of any description, whom they will not outdo?
9060Where is the general who has caused the loss of Halus?
9060Where is the wretch who would sacrifice self, parents, sepulchres, fatherland, for the sake of some short- lived gain?
9060Which sinned against the salt and the libation, Aeschines-- the traitors and the faithless ambassadors and the hirelings, or their accusers?
9060Whither will he turn afterwards?
9060Who but Aeschines?
9060Who has secured Philip a road to Attica that leads entirely through the country of allies and friends?
9060Who is it then that these men describe as cowardly and timid before a crowd, while I call him cautious?
9060Who is the author of this deception?
9060Who then is responsible for this crime?
9060Who then, of all men, should naturally have opposed the demand?
9060Who was it that cried out that Philip was organizing Hellas and the Peloponnese against you, while you were asleep?
9060Who will believe such a tale?
9060Why do you tell us_ now_ of the alleged iniquities of Demosthenes, instead of accusing him when his report was under examination?
9060Why is it that all was well then, and all is amiss to- day?
9060Will any one be able to steal these conclusions from your minds?
9060Will he go to Phrygia and be a slave?
9060Will you not be on your guard,''I said,''lest in striving to be rid of war, you find yourselves slaves?
9060You ask whom I mean?
9060[ n] Now why do I remind you of these things?
9060[ n] What can such statements mean, except that he is bankrupt of legitimate arguments?
9060[ n] and how at last, in recent days, you thought yourself lucky to get a parasitic living in the training- rooms of others, as a third- rate actor?
9060and did they not administer it to men sent to them by Philip?
9060and did they not exclude the Phocians from the treaty?
9060and did they not incessantly do business with him privately?
9060and do_ you_ require this of us?''
9060and if, in particular, a speaker takes bribes and speaks to further the interests of the enemy, how can you escape real danger?
9060and was not the consequence that the one came back at the head of the mercenaries, while the other was churning the butter[n] at home?
9060and what are they doing?
9060do we need stronger proofs than these to establish my conclusions?
9060he may say,''have you not to thank the Peace for three hundred ships, with their fittings, and for funds which remain and will remain yours?''
9060he would have been asked,''are you not going on the mission which is to secure all those wonderful good things which you have foretold?''
9060how he has deceived me?''
9060how is it to be maintained?
9060how large is it to be?
9060how will it consent to act in this manner?
9060if any one had foretold it, would they have believed him?
9060or how can he possibly assert against me now things of which he has never even accused me before?
9060or of Cersobleptes?
9060or of Doriscus?
9060or of Thermopylae?
9060or of the Phocians?
9060or of the Sacred Mountain?
9060or to desire to court the favour of all, when he need but court two or three?
9060what cunning could be used in regard to this expedition in its turn?
9060what do you think?
9060who has all but given Megara to the enemy, only recently?
9060who has given Coroneia and Orchomenus and Euboea to others?
9060who has made the Thebans powerful?
9060why do I bid you summon these men?
9060{ 10} When, then, men of Athens, when, I say, will you take the action that is required?
9060{ 119} But what is the meaning of this partnership, this careful forethought for Philocrates?
9060{ 11}''Is Philip dead?''
9060{ 120}''But where is the witness who testifies to my corruption?''
9060{ 14} Why, I may be asked, do I mention these things at the present moment?
9060{ 15} And what was this?
9060{ 15} In God''s name, is there one of you so innocent as not to know that the war will be transferred from Olynthus to Attica, if we pay no heed?
9060{ 167} What then was the meaning of Philip''s offering money to us in common?
9060{ 16} What time, what opportunity, do you look for, better than the present?
9060{ 17} Is he not our enemy?
9060{ 183} Why, for what, if not for his words, is an ambassador to be brought to justice?
9060{ 200} and how you were afterwards under- clerk to the magistrates, and played the rogue for two or three drachmae?
9060{ 206} Who, would you say, was of all men in Athens the most offensive, most overflowing with effrontery and contemptuousness?
9060{ 218} And these results, which you know and do not require us to tell you of-- what are they?
9060{ 221} Again, gentlemen of the jury, ask yourselves what reason I could have had for choosing to accuse these men, if they had done no wrong?
9060{ 222} But what is my motive for accusing you?
9060{ 225} Is it not, think you, dreadful and preternatural?
9060{ 227} Would you know or hear the cause of these things?
9060{ 22} But ever since these speakers have appeared who are always asking you,''what would you like?''
9060{ 22} What, again, of the Thessalians?
9060{ 231} When the Athenians got them into their hands( for they had long known the truth) what did they do?
9060{ 232} And who, men of Athens, with this example before his eyes, will be willing to offer you his honest service?
9060{ 24} But what of funds?
9060{ 24}''Are we then, for fear of this, to submit to Philip?
9060{ 25} Now with what object have I recalled these occurrences to you before everything else, and described these speeches of his?
9060{ 25} What is it that you desire?''
9060{ 263} Do you not perceive, men of Athens, how vivid and plain an example has been afforded you by the unhappy Olynthians?
9060{ 280} What then will you do, men of Athens?
9060{ 289} We do this, do we not?
9060{ 304} Was it not the defendant?
9060{ 30} What is the cause of all these things?
9060{ 323} How then could it be done?
9060{ 331} Do you imagine then that, when such are your sentiments, Philip''s are not also such?
9060{ 33} How then can you all ascertain without any difficulty who is the rogue?
9060{ 34}''Is it, then, paid service that you suggest?
9060{ 43} Must it not have been Aeschines?
9060{ 44} Shall we not now, if never before, go forth ourselves, and provide at least some small proportion of Athenian soldiers?
9060{ 47} How then can this state of things be terminated?
9060{ 5} And why is he responsible in these respects?
9060{ 63} And why?
9060{ 89}''What?''
9060{ 8} What course then is open to us, men of Athens, but to go to their aid resolutely and eagerly?
9060{ 92} How, then, can you solve this problem fairly?
9060{ 94}''Then what_ is_ your assertion, sir?''
2085A flat nose?
2085Ah, but,said Astyages,"is not this a far better meal than you ever had in Persia?"
2085Ah,cried Cyrus,"is that so?
2085Ah,said Cyrus,"I suppose they were glad to hear we were coming so soon?"
2085Ah,said Cyrus,"what would you give to have as much said of you?
2085And are those enemies too?
2085And do you know what they amount to?
2085And for your sons?
2085And how did you discover that, my boy?
2085And how would you set about it?
2085And if he have great riches, to you leave him all his wealth, or do you make him a beggar?
2085And if you found him deserting to your enemies, what would you do?
2085And now tell me, father, while we are still in friendly country, if you know of any resources that I could make my own?
2085And pray, father,asked Cyrus,"how can I succeed in that?"
2085And their commander?
2085And then,Cyrus continued,"once inside the walls, he could put the place into our hands?"
2085And were you conquered by him, and did you agree to pay tribute and furnish troops whenever he required, and promise not to fortify your dwellings?
2085And what do they do,he asked,"when they see the signal?"
2085And what if other benefits were gained by peace?
2085And what is that?
2085And what is the quickest way,asked Cyrus,"to win that reputation?"
2085And what stands in their way?
2085And what will that good treatment be?
2085And where,asked Cyrus,"may those treasures be?"
2085And who is he?
2085And who is to find that out, if not he who holds the keys of power? 2085 And who shall try me?"
2085And why not?
2085And why?
2085And why?
2085And will you not do your best,added Cyrus,"to bring me others too?"
2085And would they not be safe enough,suggested Cyrus,"if this pass were held for you?"
2085And yet,his father went on,"you are prepared to rely on what you do not know?
2085And you will not be annoyed if I tell you the plain truth?
2085And you will not turn aside as you did just now?
2085But do you suppose,rejoined he,"that any phalanx so deep that the rear- ranks can not close with the enemy could do much either for friend or foe?
2085But even so,said the Egyptians,"how can we act in honour if we save ourselves?"
2085But have you a fortune on your side,asked Cyrus,"to match the bride''s?"
2085But if he came back of his own accord, how would you treat him then?
2085But surely,said Cyrus,"the best way to avoid copying the wrongdoer is to practise what is right?"
2085But why should that be,said Cyrus,"seeing you are my kinsman?"
2085But why?
2085But would you wish your vengeance to do you harm instead of good?
2085But, Cyrus,put in his mother,"why are you so unkind to Sacas?"
2085But,went on Chrysantas,"how can they support each other at such a distance?"
2085Can they have any value,asked Cyrus,"when they are detected doing wrong?"
2085Can you tell us why?
2085Certainly,he answered,"why should they say what is false?"
2085Could I forget them?
2085Do you not know,he said,"that my father put him to death?"
2085Do you think,asked Cyrus,"that you will find the Assyrian already there?"
2085Good,answered Cyrus,"but is not that already twice as much as you possess?
2085How can that be?
2085How can that be?
2085How can you say that? 2085 How do you know that you do?"
2085How many of those?
2085Hunger now and thirst, for ye shall be filled--is that it?
2085I see,said Aglaïtadas,"you are trying to get a laugh out of me, are you not?"
2085I would kill him,he said:"why should I perish with a lie on my lips rather than speak the truth and die?"
2085If you have an officer and he does wrong, do you suffer him to remain in office, or do you set up another in his stead?
2085Is there any other reason,he asked,"for your present poverty, except your lack of fertile soil?"
2085Nay,said Gadatas,"what could that be?"
2085Of work as well?
2085Or failed to do anything you ordered?
2085Rich?
2085Shall I really tell you?
2085So be it then,answered Cyrus,"and to ransom your wife, how much money would you give?"
2085So,said the father,"and you really mean, my son, that you are relying only on these supplies of Cyaxares for this campaign of yours?"
2085Son of Armenia, we have heard your own judgment in this case, and now tell us, what ought we to do?
2085Son of Armenia,said Cyrus,"would you take this land for grazing, if by paying a small sum to the Chaldaeans you got a far greater return yourself?"
2085Tell me then,said the other,"have you ever called me and found I refused to come?"
2085Tell me, Gobryas, would you be better pleased to give your daughter to one of our company to- day than the day when you met us first?
2085Tell me, then, before we go further, did you see any wrong in this? 2085 Tell me,"said Cyrus,"were you the only man he treated thus, or did others suffer too?"
2085Then I may kiss you?
2085Then by all the gods,said Chrysantas,"tell me what sort of wife would do for me?"
2085Then we must give battle?
2085Then why were you taught to shoot? 2085 Then you would call sober- mindedness a condition of our nature, such as pain, not a matter of reason that can be learnt?
2085Then, you maintain,said Cyrus,"that fear will subdue a man more than suffering?"
2085Then,said Cyrus,"this plan of ours had better be kept secret, had it not?"
2085True,answered Cyrus,"but how would it be if the pass were held for you?"
2085Was there any talk about us down there?
2085Well, have I ever been slow in coming?
2085Well,said Cyrus,"are you not longing to go home yourself?"
2085Well,said Gobryas,"am I also to tell the truth?"
2085Well,said the father,"suppose the cost is more than Cyaxares can bear, or suppose he actually meant to deceive you, how would your soldiers fare?"
2085What art is that?
2085What else should I do,the old man answered,"but clap irons on him and set him to work in chains?"
2085What happens then?
2085What is it, my lord?
2085What? 2085 Whatever I had to do, I always did it eagerly and with all my heart, did I not?"
2085When?
2085Who has won?
2085Who was it then?
2085Why is it, then, that to- day you have neither brought the tribute nor sent the troops, and are building forts?
2085Why,answered they,"who so fit to persuade him as yourself?"
2085Why?
2085''Now, my boy,''you said,''did this teacher you want to pay ever mention economy among the things a general ought to understand?
2085( But has Cyrus a touch of superhuman conscious rectitude?)
2085: Are any of these tactical improvements by Xenophon himself?
2085: What was Xenophon''s manner of composing?
2085A slight( intentional?)
2085A sort of Socrates- Lycurgus?
2085Accordingly he began thus:"Tell me, grandfather,"said he,"if one of your slaves were to run away, and you caught him, what would you do to him?"
2085After we have set aside the customary portion for the gods and a fair share for the army, shall we not give all the rest of the spoil to him?
2085An army on forced march: are there any novelties here?
2085And Cyrus answered,"What, are you my kinsman too?"
2085And Cyrus said,"If you really do not want them yourself, grandfather, will you give them to me?
2085And hundreds been deprived of their horses and their arms?
2085And if any of them do hold firm, how can they fight at once against cavalry, infantry, and turrets of artillery?
2085And is it not clear that the one who feels the pain of forfeiture the most will be the one most grateful for the granting of the gift?
2085And later, when you returned to bring us aid, did we not see for ourselves how your friends poured after you?
2085And now tell me, how far from here do the Assyrian headquarters lie, and their main body?"
2085And now,"he added,"what need of further words?
2085And tell me now,"he continued,"would you be more willing to advise me as a friend?"
2085And tell me, do you think the god will still speak truth?
2085And that not even without his own consent?
2085And then he asked himself whether it would not be the best of plans to drive off booty from the country of the Medes?
2085And they answered,"Is it possible that we can be saved and yet keep our reputation untarnished?"
2085And we ought to have a large supply of straps-- I wonder what is not fastened by a strap to man or horse?
2085And what do you take your own to be?"
2085And what, think you, does my father feel at this moment?
2085And where is coldness so ugly as between brothers?
2085And where, I ask, shall we find a nobler opportunity than this, to show what we have learnt?"
2085And why did you never meet the lion or the bear or the leopard in fair fight on equal terms, but were always trying to steal some advantage over them?
2085And will you roam the world together, you and the lad who sits beside you, because there is none so fair as he?"
2085Any touch of the sycophancy of the future in it?
2085Are any of the names real or all invented to give verisimilitude?
2085Are you not going to wait until we bring the hostages?
2085Artabazus"the kinsman"named now for the first time, why?
2085At this the men behind took up the shout till it rang through the field like a battle- cry:"Who follows?
2085At which he turned right round and addressed the ranks:''Do n''t you hear the officer abusing you?
2085But by what right can a man, who is bad himself, punish others for badness or stupidity?
2085But he answered,"Is it not adornment enough for me to have adorned you?
2085But he who was to take it said,"And how shall I find them, my lord?"
2085But now,"he added,"have you any need of us at all?
2085But the Medes and the Hyrcanians asked Cyrus:"How are we to distribute the spoil alone, without your men and yourself?"
2085But what is the joke?
2085But why did we teach you that?
2085But why should you see it?"
2085But you,"he added,"could not your fathers let you go out to hunt too?"
2085But your mirth- makers, can you say they benefit the body or edify the soul?
2085Can I never act for you, and you for me?
2085Can he learn economy or statesmanship from a grin?"
2085Can not one see the little boy doubling his little fists, a knife in his pocket, possibly a ball of string?
2085Can not you see,"he cried,"how he has taught all the Medes to have less than himself?
2085Can not you understand that the time it takes to wink is a whole eternity if it severs me from the beauty of your face?"
2085Can smiles make a man a better master or a better citizen?
2085Can these rival fastnesses of the Carians be identified?
2085Can you deny that all that was craft and deceit and fraud and greed?"
2085Could he not see the danger he had run?
2085Curious Cyrus should be so little suspicious of Abradatas''death, is it not?
2085Cyaxares means to kidnap them, does n''t he?
2085Cyaxares was well pleased at his celerity, but troubled by the plainness of his attire, and said to him,"What is the meaning of this, Cyrus?
2085Cyrus asked,"what was his object?"
2085Cyrus caught sight of him:--"You have forgotten something?
2085Cyrus plied his retinue with questions about the creatures they came across, which must he avoid and which might he hunt?
2085Cyrus said,"how are they drawn up?
2085Did H. have to drive back the great cavalry division of the enemy?
2085Did I not come myself with the best and bravest I could bring?"
2085Did I not pass sentence on myself, when I confessed I was too weak to consort with loveliness and remain unmoved?
2085Did ever an undisciplined garrison save a friendly town?
2085Did the modern rights of non- combatants so originate?
2085Did you not charge him with unbridled insolence?"
2085Do you forget that the needs of the morrow must be high, not to speak of the outlay for the day?"
2085Do you not know,"he went on,"that I neither eat nor drink nor sleep with any more zest than I did when I was poor?
2085Do you not see that all these soldiers of ours have been raised by us to the pitch of expectation?
2085Do you not think so yourself?
2085Do you remember the day you left us to go home to Persia?
2085Do you think that, knowing myself, I can be happy now?
2085Does any learned German know?
2085Does he also desire his archic man to be got up in a manner befitting royalty at a certain date?
2085Does he wish us to draw conclusions?
2085Does it work?
2085Fear of exile; autobiographical touch?
2085For who but a brother can win glory from a brother''s greatness?
2085Had that writer any echo of the names in his head?
2085Has he any_ parti pris_, for or against?
2085Has he one eye on the old insurrection against Persia,_ tempore_ Histiaeus, and another on the new arrangements,_ tempore_ Antalcidas?
2085Has it any analogue nowadays anywhere?
2085Has not the enemy''s camp been taken?
2085Have not hundreds of your assailants fallen?
2085Have you adopted the Hellenic fashion too?
2085Here love of Spartan simplicity, and there of splendour and regality and monarchism?
2085How are we to remember our valour and train our skill?
2085How could she be enamoured at once of nobleness and baseness, or at once desire and not desire one deed and the same?
2085How could you show yourself in this guise to the Indians?
2085How did matters go between you and the oracle at Delphi?
2085How far are we to be consciously self- regarding?
2085How far was this a custom among Hellenes?
2085How has he drawn you to himself?"
2085How shall we dare to think well of ourselves again?
2085How we felt there were certain things that the gods had permitted us to attain through learning and study and training?
2085I cried out,''You, sir, what are you doing?''
2085I mean, did Xenophon find or hear any such story current?
2085If not, what is the prototype?
2085If we had but a single soul, how could she be at once evil and good?
2085If you need money, who will provide the ways and means better than he who knows and can command all the resources of the country?
2085Is Xenophon obscure?
2085Is anything passing through the mind of Xenophon?
2085Is cowardice, then, an adjunct of happiness?
2085Is ever disaster nearer than when each solider thinks about his private safety only?
2085Is it a sign of senility, or half- thought- out ideas, or what?
2085Is it conceivable that Xenophon shrinks from using a proper name except when he has some feeling for the sound of the language?
2085Is it dramatic to make Cyrus speak in this way as if he were lecturing a class on strategics?
2085Is it likely that men who forsook the shelter of their own fortress will ever face us in fair field on level ground?
2085Is it simply and solely Oriental, or general, and Hellenic also?
2085Is it, as far as the army goes, novel in any respect, do you suppose, or only idealised Hellenic?
2085Is not the spoiler spoiled?
2085Is that a slip, or how explainable?
2085Is there a touch of flunkeyism in this?
2085Is this a carelessness, or what?
2085Is this a novelty?
2085Is this also Xenophon''s view?
2085Is this by chance a situation in Elizabethan or other drama?
2085Is this tale"historic"at all?
2085Is this worthy of the archic man?
2085It is a method, no doubt, of{ arkhe}, but has it any spiritual"last"in it?
2085It is an historical difficulty which Xenophon has to get over or round, or is Xenophon himself in the same condemnation, so to speak?
2085Nay, in peace as in war, can any good be gained if men will not obey their betters?
2085Now what greater joy could there be than the good fortune which waits on us to- day?
2085Of everything?"
2085One day at a drinking- bout this monster had the youth seized and mutilated, and why?
2085Only one thing puzzles me: how am I to show my joy at your success?
2085Or does it correspond to a moral meeting of the waters in his own mind?
2085Or else,"Gentlemen, can we invite each other to a more glorious feast than this?
2085Or is Xenophon thinking of the Spartan Crypteia?
2085Or is it simply because we have slaves and must punish them if they do wrong?
2085Or is it that we seem to be happier to- day than heretofore?
2085Or to hurl the javelin?
2085Or to snare stags with cords and caltrops?
2085Or to trap wild- boars?
2085Or where is reverence so beautiful?
2085Or whether we should hold that cowardice makes no difference in the end, seeing that we all must share alike?"
2085Or who so safe from injury as the brother of the great?
2085Or will they show themselves our equals in daily life and on the field of battle when the time comes to meet the foe?"
2085Perhaps it was only a false alarm that troubled you, and the enemy are not advancing?"
2085Say he may not sit upon the throne of Armenia, will he suffer from that as we shall suffer?
2085Say he need not lose his children and his wife, will he love you for that more than one who knows he well deserved the loss?
2085Say you let a man live who has never done you wrong, will he be grateful for the boon?
2085Semi- historical?
2085Shall I clap my hands and laugh, or what shall I do?"
2085Shall we not gain ourselves by all they gain in valour?"
2085Shall we say it is because we have won an empire?
2085Should we not feel we had done you wrong, and taken advantage of you?"
2085Spartan?
2085The boy was taken aback by their profusion, and exclaimed,"Grandfather, do you give me all this for myself, to do what I like with it?"
2085The lady of Susa, quasi- historic, or wholly imaginative, or mixed?
2085The last remark is so silly(?)
2085The mass of the enemy we should not think of pursuing; indeed, how could we overtake them?
2085The passage in brackets might be a gloss, but is it?
2085Thebans''?
2085Then Astyages laughed and said,"Can you not see how prettily he mixes the cup, and with what a grace he serves the wine?"
2085Then Cyrus asked,"Are his dwellings strongly fortified, or could they be attacked?"
2085Then Cyrus called some of his squires and said:"Tell me, have any of you seen Abradatas?
2085Then Cyrus, who was standing by, asked Cyaxares,"May I too say what is in my mind?"
2085Then Tigranes answered,"You speak of friendship, but can you ever find elsewhere so great a friendship as you may find with us?"
2085Then Tigranes turned to his wife and asked,"Did Cyrus seem so beautiful in your eyes?"
2085There is something else you wanted to say?"
2085They have lost their best and bravest, and will the cowards dare to give us battle?"
2085Think you the honours of the dead would still abide, if the souls of the departed were altogether powerless?
2085This slipshod style, how accounted for?
2085To have it reported on all sides and wherever you wished to stand well that you were a man of wit?"
2085To ride a- horseback is surely pleasanter than to trudge a- foot?
2085Was Alexander''s army a highly- organised, spiritually and materially built- up, vitalised machine of this sort?
2085Was I not obedient to your word?
2085Was it conceivably a Persian custom too?
2085Was it not rather a service and a kindly act?"
2085Was not that enough in the case of the competitions?"
2085Was there one of us, young or old, who did not follow you until Astyages turned us back?
2085Were these tribal customs of the Persians, as doubtless of the Dorians, or is it all a Dorian idealisation?
2085What advantage is it to me for my lands to be made broad if I myself am dishonoured?
2085What bitter sight have you seen to make you feel such bitterness?"
2085What city could be at rest, lawful, and orderly?
2085What could be more blessed than to lie in the lap of Earth, the mother of all things beautiful, the nurse of all things good?
2085What else do we need?
2085What household could be safe?
2085What is Xenophon''s intention with regard to it?
2085What is more lawful than self- defence?
2085What is nobler than to succour those we love?
2085What is the end and aim of our training?
2085What is the relation, if any, to it of Xenophon Ephesius, Antheia, and Abrocomas?
2085What language are"Pantheia"and"Abradatas"?
2085What light does Arrian, that younger Xenophon, throw upon it?
2085What say you then?
2085What ship sail home to her haven?
2085What would you have said about us then?
2085What would your empire profit you if you alone were left without hearth or home?
2085When did Xenophon himself first learn to ride?
2085When discipline was gone, did ever an army conquer?
2085Which are the better at heavy physical tasks, boys or men?
2085Who but he could stretch out an arm and take vengeance on his enemies when yet they were months and months away?
2085Who can be honoured as a brother can through a brother''s power?
2085Who could give you stouter help in return for your own support?
2085Who do you think will win her?
2085Who follows me?
2085Who is this ancient teacher or who is his prototype if he is an ideal being?
2085Who will lay the first Assyrian low?"
2085Whose bad manners is Xenophon thinking of?
2085Why does n''t he point out its hollowness also?
2085Why is the Hyrcanian never named?
2085Why not simply issue a general order that you intend to do this?
2085Why plural,"the trenches"?
2085Why should I try to speak?
2085Why should you, any more than we, be found lacking in that power which takes the goods of weaklings and bestows them on the strong?"
2085Why was she not present?
2085Why?
2085Will Cyrus take her to wife, his old playmate?
2085Will it be with the new dynasty, or with the old familiar house?
2085Will those who shrink from us before they put our prowess to the test ever withstand us now when we have overthrown and shattered them?
2085Would a modern force storm a camp without taking rations?
2085Would it not be a noble thing, a sign and symbol at the outset that we desire to outdo in well- doing those who do good to us?"
2085Xenophon''s dramatic form is shown in the intellectual and emotional side of his characters, rather than by the diction in their mouths, is it not?
2085Xenophon''s own father, is he there?
2085[ 10]"Answer then,"said Cyrus,"did you once make war upon Astyages, my mother''s father, and his Medes?"
2085[ 10]"How far is your army from here?"
2085[ 10]"Then why, Cyrus, why, in heaven''s name, have you singled out Chrysantas for a more honourable seat than me?"
2085[ 10]"You want to know where you could find resources of your own?"
2085[ 11] At that one of his officers cried,"Why not pursue at once, if such triumphs are before us?"
2085[ 11] Maybe; but are boys more capable of learning what they are taught then grown men?
2085[ 11]"And what are they doing now?"
2085[ 11]"Well, but, boy,"said Astyages,"does your father never lose his head when he drinks?"
2085[ 12]"Then,"said Cyrus,"if love be voluntary, why can not a man cease to love when he wishes?
2085[ 12]"Then,"said they,"why not go and lay the matter before Cyaxares?"
2085[ 12]"Well, my son,"the father resumed,"and do you remember certain other points which we agreed must never be overlooked?"
2085[ 12]"Well,"said Cyrus,"who will speak to Astyages for us?"
2085[ 13] Then he bade the Hyrcanians lead the way, but they exclaimed,"What?
2085[ 13] Why, then, did I ask Cyaxares to put the question to debate?
2085[ 14] But if he met soldiers who had fought for him before, he only said,"To you, gentlemen, what need I say?
2085[ 14] How did our friends here learn their endurance?
2085[ 14]"And is not the shame justified?"
2085[ 15] And Cyrus said,"Hystaspas, did you hear the saying of Gobryas?"
2085[ 15] Where is the warrior, stout of heart and strong of will, who can wage war with cold and hunger?
2085[ 16] Then said his mother,"But justice and righteousness, my son, how can you learn them here when your teachers are at home?"
2085[ 17] How can we differ from one another with these arms?
2085[ 18] But Gobryas interposed,"And if one of us wants to give his daughter in marriage, to whom should he apply?"
2085[ 18]"Well, after the enemy had come, and we had to fight the matter out, did you ever see me shrink from toil or try to escape from danger?"
2085[ 19] If this were what you had heard of the enemy, I as you, once again, you who are now so fearful what would you have done?
2085[ 19]"And then,"continued Cyrus,"to rouse enthusiasm in the men, there can be nothing, I take it, like the power of kindling hope?"
2085[ 19]"But what defeat,"said Cyrus,"can you find in your father''s case to make you so sure that he has come to a sober mind?"
2085[ 19]"But why,"asked Chrysantas,"why discuss the point?
2085[ 20]"And the Egyptians?"
2085[ 20]"At close quarters?"
2085[ 20]"So you think,"said Cyrus,"that merely to learn another is stronger than himself is defeat enough to bring a man to his senses?"
2085[ 21] Can we deserve blame for doing him a service?
2085[ 22] Now it chanced that another brigadier was among the guests, and he spoke up and said to Cyrus:"But will you never ask my men to dinner too?
2085[ 22]"And now,"said Chrysantas,"in heaven''s name, tell us the bride for a flat king?"
2085[ 22]"Then,"said the chieftain,"as soon as the Cadousians arrive and the Sakians and my countrymen, we must, must we not?
2085[ 22]"You would have me understand,"said Cyrus,"that the best way to secure obedience is to be thought wiser than those we rule?"
2085[ 23] It was thus we started, and after we had gone, was there, I ask you, a single deed of mine that was not done in the light of day?
2085[ 23]"But,"said Cyrus,"how can a man really and truly attain to the wisdom that will serve his turn?"
2085[ 23]"Do you mean to tell me,"said Cyrus,"that this is a regular rule of yours?"
2085[ 23]"Do you suppose then,"asked Tigranes,"that anything can enslave a man more utterly than fear?
2085[ 25] Thereupon Cyrus put his questions:"Does the king suppose that you alone are his enemies, or do you know of others who hate him too?"
2085[ 26] Then Cyrus said:"Why should they not take service with me?
2085[ 26]"Then you think,"said Cyrus,"that they would be glad to attack him in our company?"
2085[ 27] At that Cyrus turned to Gobryas:"And what of this lad who is now on the throne?
2085[ 27] Cyrus said,"If you go now, when will you reach home?"
2085[ 27]"But how can a man make sure that he will gain?"
2085[ 28] Then the Mede, emboldened by the kiss, took heart and said,"So in Persia it is really the custom for relatives to kiss?"
2085[ 28]"And I,"said Cyrus,"when could I be there with my army?"
2085[ 28]"And who,"said Cyrus,"who was it that lived that life of happiness?"
2085[ 28]"But how comes it,"said his son,"that the lessons you taught us in boyhood and youth were exactly opposed to what you teach me now?"
2085[ 28]"Many others,"said Gobryas,"but some of them were weak, and why should I weary you with the insults they endured?
2085[ 29] Then the Sakian opened his eyes and asked whom he had hit?
2085[ 29]"But to- day, and now, can you find another man in the world whom you could benefit as you can benefit my father?
2085[ 29]"Well,"rejoined Cyrus,"I take it, you believe he would welcome us, if he thought we came to help him?"
2085[ 2] I would have you ask yourselves, was ever a hostile city captured by an undisciplined force?
2085[ 30]"And how is it,"asked the other,"that he does not even turn his head?"
2085[ 30]"And where is the difficulty in that?"
2085[ 31]"And so,"said another,"for all these virtues you give him, I take it, the kiss of kinship?"
2085[ 33] And Cyrus said,"Tell me then, and tell me true: how great is your power and your wealth?"
2085[ 33] Whereas, if it be thought that we left Gadatas in the lurch, how in heaven''s name shall we persuade another to show us any kindness?
2085[ 34] Are these, I ask you, Cyrus, are these the deeds of a benefactor?
2085[ 35] I seem to hear some one say, why did you not think of this before you revolted?
2085[ 36] And you, Tigranes,"said he,"at what price would you redeem your bride?"
2085[ 36]"But how,"asked Cyrus,"can I catch him in all these blunders?"
2085[ 37] Then Cyrus asked,"And are these the only cases where one can apply the great principle of greed, or are there others?"
2085[ 38] When Gadatas heard that, he breathed again, and he said:"Could I really be in time to make my preparations and be back before you leave?
2085[ 3] And we, to what do we owe our triumph, if not to our obedience?
2085[ 3] And when he saw them, he gazed in wonder and said:"Dear wife, and did you destroy your own jewels to make this armour for me?"
2085[ 40] But Pheraulas answered:"Do you really think, my friend, that my joy in life has grown with the growth of my wealth?
2085[ 41]"Then you can really bring yourself to leave the beautiful Pantheia?"
2085[ 43] And Cyrus laughed and said,"What will you take to let us tell your wife that you have become a baggage- bearer?"
2085[ 43]"And if we become your friends,"said they,"how will you treat us?"
2085[ 44] But Cyrus met question by question:"Do you really think, gentlemen, that we must all preside over every detail, each and all of us together?
2085[ 47] How was he to guard against it?
2085[ 49] Then Chrysantas turned to Cyrus:"What if you also were to summon our men, while there is yet time, and inspire them with your words?"
2085[ 4] Then one of them asked him,"And you, O Cyrus, when will you adorn yourself?"
2085[ 4] To that Araspas replied,"Have you seen the lady whom you bid me guard?"
2085[ 4]"How do you know?"
2085[ 51]"But,"replied Chrysantas,"could you not make the brave men braver still, and the good better?"
2085[ 5]"And do you remember,"asked his father,"certain other conclusions on which we were agreed?
2085[ 5]"Do you think,"said Cyrus,"we should overtake the Assyrians before they reach their fortresses?
2085[ 5]"What?"
2085[ 6] Cyrus sent again and asked,"Why do you sit there, then, and refuse to come down?"
2085[ 7]"Ah,"said Cyaxares,"and perhaps you feel that the force you are bringing from Persia is very small?"
2085[ 7]"Can you give us any guarantee,"said Cyrus,"that what you say is true?"
2085[ 7]"Why are they doing that?"
2085[ 85] What, then, would I have you do?
2085[ 8] Of course the captain called them back, and they began to grumble and growl:''Which of the two are we to obey?
2085[ 8] Then Chrysantas spoke:"Does not the river flow through the middle of the city, and it is not at least a quarter of a mile in width?"
2085[ 8]"Well,"said Chrysantas,"do you think the movement wise?"
2085[ 9] Presently as the wine went round and round, Hystaspas turned to Cyrus and said:"Would you be angry, Cyrus, if I asked something I long to know?"
2085[ 9]"But,"said the other,"can you see anything else to be done?"
2085_ quasi_-historical?
2085cried Cyrus,"you dared to let that be known whether I wished it or not?"
2085cried others,"what do you mean?
2085cried the Sakian,"surely, when it is all safe, to see so much of your own must make you much happier than me?"
2085said Cyrus,"what fault did he find in him?"
2085said Cyrus,"who is he?"
2085said Cyrus;"do you think it will be possible for the soldiers to diet and train themselves?"
2085said he,"or at long range?"
2085said the other,"why?"
2085semi- historical?
2085the boy asked,"those who are riding over there?"
2085wrong and there is no bathos?
2085wrong?

35174_ Nurse._ Dost thou not fear?
35174_ Nurse._ My foster daughter, whither speedest thou abroad?
35174_ Pho._ Ca n''t you see?
35174_ Pho._ Do you want to begin right off, Nausistrata, and do something that will both make me happy and bring tears to your husband''s eyes?
35174_ Pho._ How can I, when I have already used it to pay my debts with?
35174_ Pho._ How can he answer you, when, by George, he does n''t know where he is?
35174_ Pho._ I?
35174_ Pho._ Is_ that_ your game?
35174_ Pho._ Mine?
35174_ Pho._ No, do you?
35174_ Pho._ On the same business, perhaps?
35174_ Pho._ To court, is it?

35174_ Phor._ No?
35174_ Phor._ The name?
35174_ Phæd._ Now, Geta, what next?
35174_ Phæd._ What do you mean?
35174_ Phæd._ Why, uncle, you are n''t angry with him for that, are you?
35174_ So._ No?
35174_ So._ O, my goodness, are n''t you the man you always said you were?
35174_ So._ What makes you so afraid of that door?

35174a pause?
35174and how shall Antipho''s father be reconciled to the marriage so that he may not annul it or disown both the young people upon his return?
35174and shall he go and mock our royal power?
35174do_ you_ mean?
35174exclaim?
35174or with what hopes dost thou delay Upon the Libyan shores?
35174the fear that smote thee, when, Upon the field of Mars, the earth- born brood stood forth To meet thy single sword?
35174where am I?
35174where do you come from?
7073Ajax,I exclaimed,"What errand is it upon which you go Unbidden, summoned by no messenger, No trumpet call; the host is all asleep?"
7073Aid from the dead to thee, a matricide?
7073Ajax, my lord, what dost thou meditate?
7073Am I a begging, babbling soothsayer?
7073Am I of kin, then, to my mother''s blood?
7073Am I to govern by another''s will?
7073And art thou he?
7073And could he take a foundling to his heart?
7073And do these arms enfold thee?
7073And hast thou none to save thee from her hands?
7073And have these powers the mastery over Zeus?
7073And how?
7073And is it to Orestes''self I speak?
7073And is my justice to be led by thine?
7073And is there naught to show that man dwells there?
7073And shall our hoary hairs be put to school, And shall we take instruction from this boy?
7073And that our enemies are mightier far?
7073And think''st thou still unscathed to say these things?
7073And thou, too, in my home a lurking snake?
7073And what is there in her to breed your fears?
7073And wherein can the blind advantage him?
7073And who now fills the seat of royalty?
7073And yet what greater glory could be mine, Than, burying my own brother, I have won?
7073And yet what law divine have I transgressed?
7073Art not ashamed to brave the public voice?
7073Art thou assured of that thou dost report?
7073Art thou mad?
7073Art thou not sillier than a silly child, To think that I will tell thee what thou ask''st?
7073Art thou resolved?
7073Art thou some kinsman come I know not whence?
7073Bends he his steps in our direction, child?
7073But how could he adventure to come here?
7073But thou, answer, and briefly, didst thou know The proclamation made against this act?
7073But with this wench to dwell in partnership As second wife, what woman could endure?
7073By persecution or by force?
7073By whom was she espied, and how entrapped?
7073Can I bring the dead to life again?
7073Can father and not father be the same?
7073Can fortune''s spite what thou hast told surpass?
7073Can mortal man in aught thy durance ease?
7073Can one unknown to thee thy pity move?
7073Can what I see be fair Electra''s face?
7073Canst thou depart in silence and not see That silence pleads on the accuser''s side?
7073Canst thou point him out to me?
7073Canst thou remember what erewhile I taught?
7073Child of a blind old man, Antigone, Unto what land, whose city, have we come?
7073Daughter of Oeneus, say whence comes thy fear?
7073Daughter of Oeneus, what are thy commands?
7073Daughters, where are ye?
7073Didst drain my heart''s blood, while I little thought That I was cherishing two traitress fiends?
7073Didst thou not understand or tempt''st thou me?
7073Died he by act of heaven and painlessly?
7073Died he of sickness or through treachery?
7073Do my ears tell me true?
7073Does any one of you who stand around The herdsman know of whom this stranger speaks?
7073Does reason bid thee second anarchy?
7073Does yon wretched woman seem Deeply to mourn and bitterly bewail The son that has so miserably died?
7073Dost thou not fear to cast such words at Zeus?
7073Dost thou not know That I no more am debtor to the gods?
7073Dost thou not know that thou a woman art?
7073Dost thou, too, prize defeat as victory?
7073Either afield or here has he been seen?
7073Err I in claiming reverence for my state?
7073Fearest thou not this more?
7073For when a life is full of wretchedness As mine has been, is it not gain to die?
7073From what head could the lock be cut but mine?
7073Good ladies, tell a stranger in your land, Does King Aegisthus in this mansion dwell?
7073Had Priam conquered, what would he have done?
7073Has Athens then escaped the avenger''s hand?
7073Has Creon sent My best beloved in mercy to their sire?
7073Has he such might as to defy us all?
7073Has he the right to part me from mine own?
7073Has it a king or do the commons rule?
7073Has she not merited a crown of gold?
7073Hast thou gone mad, unhappy one, that thus Thou mockest at my miseries and thy own?
7073Hast thou no reverence for a mother''s prayer?
7073Hast thou the effrontery thus to threaten me?
7073Hast thou the impudence such calumny To vent, and dream''st thou of impunity?
7073Have I come The most disastrous journey of my life?
7073Have I not then the mourner''s privilege?
7073High honour did our father pay to thee, Rich gifts he gave thy shrine; his offspring gone, Who will be left to heap thy altars more?
7073Himself, too, must be near; for how could one, Lame with an ancient ulcer, travel far?
7073How am I duped?
7073How can I face my father Telamon?
7073How can I prove disloyal to the host, And this alliance lose?
7073How can he bear to look upon the son Who comes to him disgraced, without the prize, When glory''s wreath has circled his own brow?
7073How could I look for succour to the gods?
7073How doubly?
7073How else could hate encircle with its toils The enemy that was a seeming friend, So that the prey might not o''erleap the net?
7073How look him in the face and say such things?
7073How now?
7073How now?
7073How say ye?
7073How shall I wail thee, king, How vent my loyal grief?
7073How shall thy country, captive to a foe By thee set on, requite thee with her love?
7073How should the Centaur, in his agony, Have sought to serve her that had caused his death?
7073How should the wayfarer Else have on you first lighted, like himself, Untasting of the wine- cup, and have found This sacred seat unhewn?
7073How squares that story with thy present plea?
7073How then do service which offends his shade?
7073How vain, if of these parents I was born?
7073How was it Loxias failed to punish thee?
7073How was it that she died?
7073How, daring maid, can I in such a case, Whether to loose or bind, assistance lend?
7073How?
7073How?
7073I did; how should I not?
7073If at home I give Disorder license, where will order reign?
7073In courteous wise that strangers twain are here?
7073In face of Creon''s edict?
7073In face of such reproaches who will we d?
7073In fear of what?
7073In guessing riddles art thou not supreme?
7073In what adventure?
7073In what respect, then, has my prayer been heard?
7073In what so evil plight then was I found?
7073Is all else bare?
7073Is he alive?
7073Is it a mystery?
7073Is it above us, tell me, or below?
7073Is it good luck, Or gain with sorrow blended?
7073Is it my darlings''weeping that I hear?
7073Is it not safe e''en to encounter him?
7073Is it of him that this man speaks?
7073Is it some vow, vowed in an hour of fear?
7073Is it that voice I hear?
7073Is it thy resolve that both shall die?
7073Is not the state the ruler''s property?
7073Is not what I say sweet to thine ear?
7073Is not yon maiden sick of that disease?
7073Is old Polybus their king no more?
7073Is that plain?
7073Is the child out of hearing or at hand?
7073Is there no garniture?
7073Is this contrivance Creon''s or thine own?
7073Is this well?
7073Jocasta, dearest partner of my life, Why from the palace hast thou summoned me?
7073Know''st thou thy birth?
7073Knowest thou not that thy alarms are vain?
7073Lady, what baleful herb Of earth or potion dire Drawn from the flowing ocean, hadst thou drunk, That on thee thou hast brought the public curse?
7073Layest thou the blame on me of thy mischance?
7073Like to whose hair?
7073Look, will this insolence amend thy lot?
7073Many we are, yet brief our speech shall be; Do thou to questions plain, plain answer give; And tell us first, didst thou thy mother slay?
7073Mark ye those children on the palace there, In aspect like the spectral shapes of dreams?
7073May it be told?
7073More yet I did; the wealth that lurks for man In earth''s dark womb,--gold, silver, iron, brass,-- Who was it brought all this to light but I?
7073Murderers of whom?
7073My children, progeny of Cadmus old, Why in this posture do I find you here, With wool- wreathed branches in your suppliant hands?
7073My daughter, has the stranger gone from us?
7073No cause to mourn, who have a brother lost?
7073Not know the thing which my own eyes beheld?
7073Now whither can I turn?
7073O King, why has the lady rushed away In this wild burst of grief?
7073O crime of crimes, a woman slays her mate,-- What can I call her?
7073O misery, from what mortal hast thou heard This story that has gained thy fond belief?
7073O oracles, Where are ye?
7073O reverend priests and elders of this land, What are ye doomed to hear?
7073O vilest of mankind, for thou would''st move A stone to righteous wrath, wilt thou not speak But still stand there unmoved and obdurate?
7073Of all this train Of woes, what was there not by heaven decreed?
7073Of all this wretchedness?
7073PHILOCTETES O pest, O bane, O of all villainy Vile masterpiece, what hast thou done to me?
7073Phoebus, kind god, what will the verdict be?
7073Rests now the victim from this agony?
7073Said I not from the first it would be so?
7073Say I aright?
7073Say, Pylades, shall nature''s plea be heard?
7073Say, canst thou tell, or art thou ignorant That those we hate are threat''ning those we love?
7073Say, does my arrow miss or hit the mark?
7073Say, ladies, have we been informed aright, And has our journey led us to our mark?
7073Say, reverend sir, since thee it well beseems To speak for all, what moves this company, Fear or desire?
7073Say, was my mother rightly slain or not?
7073Sayest thou the prophet counselled matricide?
7073Seeing him, Creon, with a bitter cry, Moved towards him, and in anguish shrieked to him,"My son, what hast thou done?
7073Seems it not shameful to thee thus to lie?
7073Seest thou how youthful is that sentiment?
7073Shall I conjecture right if I take this To be his Queen?
7073Shall I my duty from the commons learn?
7073Shall I say more, further to fire thy wrath?
7073Shall I to their own quarrel leave the Kings, Unmoor, and homeward cross the Aegean wave?
7073Slain by whose hand, his father''s or his own?
7073So correspondent to the bearer''s state?
7073Speak how?
7073Stranger, is this some trick thou playest on me?
7073Stranger, tell me true, In what way was it that he met his doom?
7073Stranger, what is it?
7073Suppose him brought to Troy, what gain to me?
7073Suppose yon wretch acquitted on thy plea, Can he, polluted with a mother''s blood, At Argos dwell and in his father''s home?
7073That Laius who was ruler of this land?
7073That which must come why not disclose to me?
7073The father of unprofitable sons-- What does he else but for himself beget Trouble and exultation for his foes?
7073The incest-- have I not still that to dread?
7073Then for what reason did he call me son?
7073Then seest thou not what glory thou wilt win For both of us, embracing my design?
7073Then shall I fling myself Alone upon the Trojan battlements, And having done some deed of valour, fall?
7073Then why delay, when of thy words to me Not one gives pleasure or will ever give?
7073There are then people who inhabit it?
7073Think you herein ours was the weaker side?
7073Think''st thou I Will crouch before these gods of yesterday?
7073Think''st thou Orestes sent it secretly?
7073Think''st thou that Zeus will e''er his master find?
7073Thinkst thou I dream?
7073Thou dost not mean thy gift to Heracles?
7073Thou wilt: and is no room for counsel left?
7073Thou, that dost stand with eyes bent on the ground, Dost thou plead guilty or deny the fact?
7073Thy love is he?
7073Thy words are pleasing to mine ear; but first I must inquire of thee, who sent thee here?
7073To Creon''s ear, as he drew nigh, was borne A sound confused of weeping, and he cried In bitterness,"Unhappy that I am, Will my heart prove a prophet?
7073To gainsay folly, call''st thou that a threat?
7073To him what can I find to say, What plea of justice, since my conscience cries That he has met foul treatment at my hands?
7073To hold them in my arms Would be to feel them mine as when I saw-- What shall I say?
7073To lead me to my death, is that enough?
7073To tell him aught, or bid him come to thee?
7073To what assembly, to what festival, Will ye e''er go and not be driven home In tears, excluded from the spectacle?
7073Touching the stain of incest, wouldst thou say?
7073True, but to disobey the Almighty Sire How canst thou dare?
7073Unhappy me; who was it told thee this?
7073Villain, why art thou wrangling with thy sire?
7073Was I received, then, and not found by thee?
7073Was I thine own, or was I bought by thee?
7073Was it my mother''s or my father''s act?
7073Was it not well to do good unto him That honoured me, and at his utmost need?
7073Was not Polybus my sire?
7073Was not he kin that fell upon our side?
7073Was the god smitten with a mortal love?
7073Was then my sire misled in that from blood He cleansed Ixion, first of homicides?
7073Was this the fear that drove thee from that land?
7073Wast thou a party to this burial, Or wilt thou swear that thou art innocent?
7073Wast thou a shepherd wandering for hire?
7073We put thee down?
7073Were children then begotten of your love?
7073What ails thee that thou bring''st this face of gloom?
7073What can I do herein to serve thee more?
7073What can I do to aid thee even now?
7073What can I say?
7073What can be worse than what I now behold?
7073What can be worse?
7073What can it be that has this double power?
7073What can life be to me, bereft of thee?
7073What citizen or foreigner will fail Whene''er we pass, to pay his meed of praise?
7073What country can Tecmessa have but thee?
7073What does she?
7073What dost thou say, my son?
7073What dost thou say, young man?
7073What evil has befallen our royal house?
7073What fearful object meets thine eye?
7073What has met thy gaze To fire thy silly heart with fevered hope?
7073What hast thou more to tell?
7073What have I said to breathe this thought in thee?
7073What here is wanting that can be Sure token of insanity?
7073What in thy mother thus thy horror moves?
7073What is his destiny but endless rule?
7073What is in thy mind?
7073What is it thou dost bid me do but lie?
7073What is it troubles thee?
7073What is it?
7073What is my principle, perchance you ask?
7073What is the news he brings?
7073What is the news, whence is thy embassage?
7073What is the place, then, upon which we stand?
7073What is the token?
7073What is their name?
7073What is this proclamation that I hear The general has put forth to all the host?
7073What is this thing that thou wouldst have me do?
7073What is thy journey''s mark?
7073What is to be the manner of her death?
7073What makes my presence here so opportune?
7073What means this shouting in the house?
7073What means this?
7073What means thy shriek?
7073What means thy speech?
7073What now am I to do, since of the gods I am abhorred, of the Hellenic host Hated, to Troy and all this land a foe?
7073What order can I take that will content ye?
7073What phantom dost thou see?
7073What portion hast thou in this cause of ours?
7073What prayer of mine now have the gods fulfilled?
7073What public altar can he use, what guild Of kinsmen will admit him to their rite?
7073What puts it in thy heart, this desperate deed Thyself to dare, and call on me to aid?
7073What say''st thou, stranger?
7073What say''st thou, that King Polybus is dead?
7073What say''st thou?
7073What shall I call this, Zeus?
7073What should I fear when I must never die?
7073What sore is worse than ill- requited love?
7073What sorrow will be yours if loyally Ye love the royal house of Labdacus?
7073What staff of life?
7073What stream can wash away a mother''s curse?
7073What tyrant has imposed on thee this yoke?
7073What virtue hath an oath''s solemnity To make wrong right?
7073What was his name?
7073What was it brought thee to this neighbourhood?
7073What was the price that I received for thee?
7073What wouldst thou have me do?
7073What wouldst thou have, that is within my power?
7073What, dwell with thee, my father''s murderess?
7073What, lady, is the cause of your alarm?
7073What, then, is the indwelling deity?
7073What?
7073What?
7073What?
7073When I had thus proclaimed my infamy, Could I meet, eye to eye, those citizens?
7073When thou already hadst received the gift?
7073Whence canst thou any aid or comfort draw For my misfortunes which are past all cure?
7073Whence did it come to thee?
7073Where didst thou into his loved presence come?
7073Where is Creon to be found?
7073Where is it we have halted?
7073Where is the man to do so foul a deed?
7073Where is this man?
7073Where will thy sufferance end?
7073Where, in what manner, was your prisoner found?
7073Where, then, does my ill- starred Orestes lie?
7073Which way is not despair?
7073Whither for comfort go, when piety Is thus requited with the pains of sin?
7073Whither has Clytaemnestra gone?
7073Who but I?
7073Who can endure this caitiff''s insolence?
7073Who else could lay it there save you or me?
7073Who is the man?
7073Who knows but this may be deemed right below?
7073Who then that strikes at one so powerful Can fail to pluck down ruin on himself?
7073Who was he?
7073Who was it counselled thee, and set thee on?
7073Who was it that to these new deities Their attributes apportioned?
7073Who was it, man or maid, that laid it there?
7073Who will his funeral rites Perform?
7073Who, then, could have laid Affection''s offerings on our father''s grave?
7073Who, then, is pilot of necessity?
7073Whom I did yearn to see?
7073Whom dost thou seek?
7073Whom the gods hate why dost thou not abhor-- Him that betrayed thy attribute to man?
7073Whose wrath would not be kindled when he heard Language so hateful to a patriot''s ear?
7073Why art thou downcast, lady, at my words?
7073Why ask?
7073Why did ye not pursue her while she lived?
7073Why do I bear on me these mockeries, This prophet''s wand, this fillet round my neck?
7073Why do I not at once, as here I am Wishing thy good, relieve thee of that fear?
7073Why dost thou curse it?
7073Why dost thou gaze on me thus mournfully?
7073Why dost thou gird at me thus fruitlessly?
7073Why should man fear whose life is but the sport Of chance, to whom the future is all dark?
7073Why tell a flattering tale, when soon the lie Must be exposed?
7073Why, O Cithaeron, didst thou cherish me, Not end my life at once, that so my kind Had never learned the secret of my birth?
7073Why, when the riddling Sphinx was here, didst thou Fail by thy skill to save the commonwealth?
7073Why?
7073Wife, dost thou know the man for whom erewhile We sent?
7073Will not persuasion work as well as guile?
7073Will thy arm help me to uplift the corpse?
7073Wilt thou be able unabashed, Having thy husband slain, To wail for him, and to his injured shade Requital for such wrong By unloved service pay?
7073Wilt thou bereave thy child of his betrothed?
7073Wilt thou enquire about a wretch like me?
7073Wilt thou not yield?
7073Wilt thou prove traitor and undo the State?
7073Wilt thou slay her that is thy son''s betrothed?
7073Wilt thou take part and aid me?
7073Without this maiden what can life be worth?
7073Would one of you my envoy be to him?
7073Wouldst thou brave the law and bury him?
7073Wouldst thou have all the talking to thyself?
7073Wouldst thou that I go ask what place it is?
7073Wretch, hast thou no regard For the unfortunate, the suppliant?
7073Wretch, wast thou not beneath her girdle borne, And dar''st thou to forswear thy mother''s blood?
7073Yet didst thou dare to violate the law?
7073Yet why dilate, On what has happened?
7073and must I let thee die alone?
7073can he be seen by me?
7073canst thou tell?
7073does he live?
7073dost thou know and yet refuse to tell?
7073have I not, then, justice on my side?
7073my son, what word has passed thy lips?
7073what can I do?
7073what evil memory is this?
7073what frantic thought Possessed thy mind, how wast thou thus distraught?
7073what hope is left For thee to look to?
7073what matters it of whom he spoke?
7073what to behold?
7073what?
7073whence didst thou learn That I had done a deed so horrible?
6585''And after that, whither will you go?''
6585''And did you see how he shovelled his food down, hand over hand?
6585''And how armed?''
6585''And how did you traverse this vast space of air?''
6585''And how many years will you sojourn and prophesy among us?''
6585''And of what use can he be to you in Pontus?''
6585''And what are these vexations?''
6585''Another, different from the former one?
6585''Dinias?''
6585''How comes it, sir, that you know me?''
6585''I was otherwise engaged,''said Megalonymus;''know you not that it was a lawless day and a dumb?
6585''Well,''said I,''paid he the penalty in some wise, or showed a clean pair of heels?''
6585''What is this you say, Eudemus?''
6585''What may their numbers be, all told?''
6585''What shall I be after this life?''
6585''What, Dion the effeminate, the libertine, the debauchee, the mastich- chewer, the too susceptible to amorous sights?''
6585''What,''said I,''are there other inhabitants?''
6585''Who was the king of the Achaeans?''
6585''You are surely Anacharsis, the son of Daucetas?''
6585A tyrant''s death?
6585Again there would have been a flaw in my claim?
6585Alone, did I say?
6585Am I to have no credit for all that is done?
6585And do you then claim to have the use of my skill, the absolute control of what was acquired independently?
6585And first tell me-- do you allow learners to criticize, if they find difficulties in your doctrines, or must juniors abstain from that?
6585And from that little taste you could have answered for the quality of the whole?
6585And how shall this remnant of tyranny be punished?
6585And pray what is the difference between killing him and causing his death?
6585And shall they now?
6585And the reproach?
6585And then if you recover, must I look for another restitution?
6585And thou, Lexiphanes, comest thou, or tarriest here?''
6585And what if he were a villain?
6585And what is that?
6585And what is the end of it all?
6585And what other channel is there, into which their energies could be directed?
6585And who is the cause of it all?
6585And why did I leave my sword in the wound, if not because I foresaw the very thing that would happen?
6585And why?
6585And will you yet make a mystery of it to your friend, and let him be lost with the vulgar herd?
6585And you have not yet sweated and travelled enough?
6585Another of my questions was about the so- called spurious lines; had he written them, or not?
6585Are there not lofty tragedy and brilliant comedy,--things that have been deemed worthy of state recognition?
6585Are these wounds?
6585Are you the only man who has found the truth, and are all the people who go in for philosophy fools?
6585As for his hitting his mother or seducing girls, what have I to do with that?
6585At length the old man spoke:--''What are you, strangers; are you spirits of the sea, or unfortunate mortals like ourselves?
6585Because you were ill, and I was at such pains to restore you, does that make you the owner of my art?
6585Both these pleas, then, being excluded, what is left me but to confess that I have no sound defence to make?
6585But how?
6585But in philosophy-- the Stoic, for instance-- how will the part reveal the other parts to you, or how can you conclude that they are beautiful?
6585But is there indeed Happiness up there-- and worth all the pains?
6585But perhaps that is not so easily done?
6585But suppose you come upon it first or second, what will you do then?
6585But the fox came up and said to him:''Why vex yourself, good sir, over the past ones?
6585But the truth, I presume, is bound to be in one of them, and not in all, as they differ?
6585But what are your hopes in pursuing philosophy, then?
6585But what is the function of professional advice?
6585But what of that?
6585But when we find them( to use the expression of a famous orator)''faring like men that are sick,''what conclusion is then left to us to draw?
6585But who has ever heard before of our putting an offering to the vote, or hindering men from paying sacrifice?
6585But who_ was_ my victim?
6585By next Olympiad, then?
6585Can you not hear classical music performed at the great festivals?
6585Confine your attention to this one question: does any of our oppressors survive?
6585Consider: are your duties any lighter than those of a Dromo or a Tibius?
6585Content?
6585Could I not have provided for myself better than this, and preserved liberty and free- will into the bargain?
6585Could anything be more absurd?
6585Could you have said the hand was a man''s, if you had never known or seen a man?
6585Could you state on oath that they have?
6585Democracy is restored: what more can you demand from him who restored it?
6585Did I get into some disreputable brawl?
6585Did I stay out o''nights, sir?
6585Did any such complaint reach you?
6585Did he tell you the Stoics were the best of men, and send you to their school?
6585Did you ever have a seat close by the judges?
6585Did you ever see them behaving like your master, as I described him to you just now?
6585Did you never meet a plain- dealer to give you a dose of candour?
6585Do we propose to abandon the temple for the law- court?
6585Do you charge me with untimely drinkings and revellings?
6585Do you count it no shame to be pitted against toadies and vulgar parasites?
6585Do you know the story of the great Cnidian architect?
6585Do you prefer a suit for ill health?
6585Do you suppose his interest in such things is selfish?
6585Do you suppose the Platonists, Pythagoreans, Epicureans, and other schools, will let that pass?
6585Do you think it impossible they may all be deluded, and the truth be something which none of them has yet found?
6585Do your praises halt?
6585Does any one claim it?
6585Does any one else know anything of this sword?
6585Does he pooh- pooh your efforts?
6585Does it not amount to that, when your school reckon goodness the only end, and the Epicureans pleasure?
6585For all these toils will you be content with your one day?
6585For instance?
6585For what fate does he reserve me, who am dead already in thy death, O my son?
6585For who would not be deterred at the thought that the God accepts no offering without the previous sanction of his priests?
6585Frigid?
6585Give me figures; how many more of them than of Epicureans, Platonists, Peripatetics?
6585Had I better turn craven, face right- about, confess my sin, and have recourse to the regular plea of Chance, Fate, Necessity?
6585Has any man a prior claim?
6585Has not the reward of tyrannicide been paid before now to him who merely expelled a tyrant?
6585Have I been wanting here?
6585Have I lacked courage?
6585Have I not earned my reward?
6585Have I shrunk back at the prospect of the dangers through which I must pass?
6585Have you never a friend or relation or well- wisher?
6585He may slight your intercessions on my behalf?''
6585Here is a specimen: Who is''t, thou askst, that with Calligenia All secretly defiles thy nuptial bed?
6585How can a man try all the roads, when, as you said, he will be unable to escape from the first of them?
6585How can it possibly be?
6585How can you tell that its holder is the bye till you have been all round and found no counterpart to it?
6585How can you tell?
6585How could you have known the whole of his doctrines from the first taste, then?
6585How could you possibly discern the true philosopher from the false, then, by the marks you mentioned?
6585How do you mean?
6585How do you mean?
6585How else should it have befallen me?
6585How else, Hermotimus?
6585How long has it taken you?
6585How much did the stock of my surgery cost you?
6585How much higher and more slippery, pray, is the peak on which your Virtue dwells than that Aornos crag which Alexander stormed in a few days?
6585How should it be otherwise?
6585How should you hope to rank with the minister of Love''s pleasures, with the stealthy conveyer of billets- doux?
6585How?
6585However, granting as much as you like that these are the right tests, what is a blind man to do, if he wants to take up philosophy?
6585I dare say he recommends different philosophers to different persons, according to their individual needs?
6585I did not slay the tyrant; I have not fulfilled the requirements of the statute; there is a flaw in my claim.--And what more does he want of me?
6585I put in;''Who is Dinias?''
6585I suppose they think they are conferring a favour on us with their wordy stuff?''
6585I suppose, Hermotimus, you have often been at athletic meetings?
6585I trust my master''s word; and he knows well; is he not on the topmost height?
6585If not, what can have induced them to enlarge on these rudiments to the tune of a hundred or a thousand volumes apiece?
6585If then the tyrant is slain, how can you withhold the reward from him who occasioned his death?
6585If you are known to be an admirable performer by persons who are themselves universally known and admired, what have you to do with public opinion?
6585If you have seen them, you are just as bad as I am; and if not, are you justified in censuring them?
6585If you want amusements, are there not a thousand things_ worth_ seeing and hearing?
6585In that case, what are we to do?
6585Indeed, and do you make that a charge against me?
6585Indeed?
6585Is he any use?
6585Is he punished?
6585Is it wronging you to say that you hunt the shadow or the snake''s dead slough, and neglect the solid body or the creeping thing itself?
6585Is that the meaning?''
6585Is there reward for this?
6585Is this death?
6585It is possible, I suppose, that one may be right?
6585Its author might fairly say to you, sir:_ If your son was vicious and deserved to be disinherited, what were you about to recall him?
6585Laymen, then?
6585Lending money and clamouring for payment, losing their tempers in philosophic debates, and making other exhibitions of themselves?
6585Let us not chop logic as to the manner and circumstances of his death, but rather ask: has he ceased to exist, and am I the cause?
6585Live?
6585Lord, what is this?
6585May I claim some credit for this, or do you still require his blood?
6585Might this be a case for, Steep plunge from crags into the teeming deep?
6585Must entreaty be added?
6585Must not all men yearn to belong to a State like that, and never count the toil of getting there, nor lose heart over the time it takes?
6585Must we withdraw our previous admission, that no one can choose the best out of many without trying all?
6585My present life has been another''s: do I look to have a new life which shall be my own?''
6585Not so fast; what in the world does it matter to him, if they do not pay up?
6585Not their rivals, I suppose?
6585Now is it likely that one who is so benevolent to strangers should deal unjustly with his fellow citizens?
6585Now tell me, did you ever buy wine?
6585Now what is their claim to be set over our heads?
6585Now, Crato,--you talk of pantomimes and theatres,--have you seen these performances yourself, that you are so hard on them?
6585Now, are their doctrines the same, or different?
6585Now, is there only one road to philosophy-- the Stoic way?
6585O ho, conduits-- that is your subject, is it?
6585Oh, do tell me what he says about it; what is Happiness like?
6585Oh, why but that I could cry like a baby?
6585Or perhaps these are trifles, so long as the dress is decent, the beard long, and the hair close- cropped?
6585Or what sort of a hive could ever keep together such a swarm of lop- sided monstrosities?
6585Or will you tell me this might do well enough for one of the common herd, but you can not have_ me_ sheltering myself so?
6585Outside are the gilt edges and the purple cover: and within?
6585Perhaps we can do without a name?
6585Remove from these men''s minds the gold and the silver, with the cares that these involve, and what remains?
6585Say, is it unreasonable in such a case to allow my claim?
6585Say, why should we change the old- established usage in regard to offerings?
6585Say: did I flinch?
6585Seest, then, thy true course?
6585Shall I concede that this is the sum of my achievements?
6585Shall I extol your intelligence, or would you rather I explained to you my own poor idea, which differs?
6585Shall I sit quietly on the brink of destruction, exercising clemency and long- suffering as heretofore?
6585Shall I tell you a plea for philosophy which I lately heard?
6585Shall an ass affect the lyre?
6585Shall he interpret the laws as he will against his benefactor?
6585Shall we deduct a quarter of that, and say a hundred and fifty will do?
6585Shall we put it, that the tyrant has escaped, and lives?
6585Should you not have considered that the owner of a weapon so public- spirited was entitled to honour and reward?
6585Should you not have recompensed him, and inscribed his name among those of your benefactors; consecrated his sword, and worshipped it as a God?
6585So they too keep their philosopher, their orator, or their_ litterateur_; and give him audience-- when, think you?
6585So you know how they arrange ties for the wrestling or the pancratium?
6585Tell me, did you ever meet a man who said twice two was seven or eleven?
6585That may be; but about these twenty years-- have you your master''s promise that you will live so long?
6585The due connexion between the various dishes which make their appearance is beyond you: which ought you to take first?
6585The increased bitterness of such a death would have counted for nothing with you?
6585The king surveyed us, and, forming his conclusions from our dress,''Strangers,''said he,''you are Greeks, are you not?''
6585The son, perhaps, caused you no uneasiness; he was no despot, no grievous oppressor?
6585Then, Philo, how shall we class the historians who indulge in poetical phraseology?
6585There is no other road to philosophy?
6585This was, When will Alexander''s imposture be detected?
6585To follow and join philosophic forces with whomsoever you first fall in with, and let him thank Fortune for his proselyte?
6585Very well, which shall we start with?
6585Was I extravagant?
6585Was that a smile?
6585Was there no other way?
6585We are provided for the future, then, with an infallible rule and balance, guaranteed by Hermotimus?
6585We thought selection without experiment a method of inquiry savouring more of divination than of judgement, did we not?
6585Well now, what is the idea of your piece?
6585Well then, can you name me a man who has tried every road in philosophy?
6585Well then, we have got to live a hundred years, and go through all this trouble?
6585Well, Lycinus?
6585Well, and later on what fault has my father to find?
6585Well, but tell me; when Phidias saw the claw, would he ever have known it for a lion''s, if he had never seen a lion?
6585Well, did you go to every wine vault in town, one after another, tasting and comparing?
6585Well, do n''t you think it will be a troublesome business to distinguish the first, and know them from the ignorant professors?
6585Well, if these will not do, what_ are_ the good things he offers to those who carry their course right through?
6585Well, well; are we to give up philosophy, then, and idle our lives away like the common herd?
6585Well, what am I to plead?
6585Well, when a small man came on in the character of Hector, they cried out with one voice:''Here is Astyanax; and where is Hector?''
6585Well?
6585Were lupines and wild herbs so scarce with you?
6585Were our original expectations from philosophy at all of a different nature, by the way?
6585Were you favoured like Chaerephon with a revelation from Apollo?
6585What I mean is this: was it not from admiration of their_ spirit_ that you joined them, expecting to have your own spirit purified?
6585What are Anacharsis and Toxaris doing here to- day in Macedonia, bringing Solon with them too, poor old gentleman, all the way from Athens?
6585What attention or filial duty did I omit?
6585What but this, that here again they have been misled, the very evil which they sold their liberty to escape remaining as it was?
6585What can I do to make myself known all over Greece?
6585What can it be?
6585What do you mean?
6585What do you mean?
6585What fault have we to find with the ancient custom, that we should propose innovations?
6585What for?
6585What further occasion for the law?
6585What had I to fear, when once the stronger of our oppressors was slain?
6585What have I said to justify that?
6585What if I had killed one of his guards, some underling, some favourite domestic?
6585What if the outcast should take to rehearsing in public the tragedy that he has got by heart?
6585What is it?
6585What is the good of answering your questions?
6585What is the matter with him, Lycinus?
6585What is the use of a light that is to be hidden under a bushel?
6585What must be his qualifications?
6585What need to drink the whole cask, when you can judge the quality of the whole from one little taste?
6585What prospect does he hold out?
6585What resemblance is there?
6585What say you, Theognis?
6585What say you, gentlemen?
6585What say you?
6585What scrupulousness is this-- to concern yourself with the manner of his end, while you are enjoying the freedom that results from it?
6585What shall we do, then?
6585What was the test you applied_ then_?
6585What we are taught to do is first of all to ascertain whether the disease is curable or incurable-- has it passed beyond our control?
6585What will the total come to, if we assume only ten schools?
6585What would my enemy say to that?
6585What would this be but sheer imbecility?
6585What, in God''s name, is my glorious recompense?
6585What, our exquisite with his essay?
6585When you evil entreat your benefactor, you are wronging nature; now I ask, do you wrong the laws as well as nature?
6585Where dined you yesterday?
6585Where in the world can you have raked up all this rubbish from?
6585Where is my sword?
6585Where is the assassin?
6585Where is your multitude, with knowledge and experience_ of all_?
6585Where shall we find the skein?
6585Where will you find a theatre or circus large enough to admit the whole nation as your audience?
6585Where_ shall_ we put you, then?
6585Which do you mean?
6585Which had the victory, though, he or Euthydemus-- if Midas said anything about that?
6585Which?
6585Who could conceivably go through all the stages I have rehearsed?
6585Who had it before him?
6585Who is to be our Ariadne?
6585Who shall be my_ multum in parvo_?''
6585Who took it up into the citadel?
6585Whom, indeed, could I substitute in your place, and hope to preserve a reputation for sanity?
6585Whose credit is highest with his neighbours?
6585Why are you dumb?
6585Why did not they make you a Tithonus for years and durability?
6585Why did you assume that that was the only true one, which would set you on the straight road to Virtue, while the rest all opened on blind alleys?
6585Why do you say that?
6585Why have him home again?
6585Why no answer, Hermotimus?
6585Why not just hold a private inquiry, you and I, whether philosophy is what I say it is?
6585Why suspend the law''s operation?
6585Why this obstinate silence?
6585Why, in that book of instructions which you all receive from the Emperor, is not the first recommendation to take care of your health?
6585Why,_ this_ is the matter; do n''t you hear?
6585Why?
6585Will you look on while he makes war upon nature?
6585Will you mention the fees you paid?
6585Will you say at once, Here is the bye?
6585Would it not have been thought a great thing, to go up and dispatch the tyrant''s friend within his own walls, in the midst of his armed attendants?
6585Would life be worth living, to the man who should be judged unworthy to offer sacrifice?
6585Would you listen to the clear melody of flute and pipe?
6585Would you revel in sweet song?
6585You agree?
6585You and I have both travelled far to see these things: you will not suffer me to depart without seeing them?''
6585You are to''consider everything as your own''; there, surely, is something solid?
6585You know the Heracleot, quite an old pupil of his in philosophy by this time-- red- haired-- likes an argument?
6585You observe how indispensable it all is to the history; without the scene, how could we have comprehended the action?
6585You understand me?
6585am I his keeper?_ A dignified defence of philosophy for an old man!
6585and was she as discreet as Odysseus had been used to vaunt her?
6585are we not free men?
6585are we so hard- mouthed, so untongued?
6585bare my throat to the sword?
6585come to the very door, and then turn back?
6585did I not ascend into the citadel?
6585did I not slay?
6585did they contemplate anything beyond a more decent behaviour than the average?
6585do we hear a tyrant''s threats?
6585do you withhold it?
6585does he think you will be on the top next year-- by the Great Mysteries, or the Panathenaea, say?
6585does it not savour of over- confidence, to condemn what you know nothing about?
6585had the springs ceased to give their wonted supply, that you were brought to such a pass?
6585have we a master?
6585how is he to find the man whose principles are right, when he can not see his appearance or gait?
6585if their strangeness had not produced the panic, where should we have been?''
6585is he prophet as well as philosopher?
6585is it not almost a State document?
6585is it not to be supposed that the provocation has been unusually great?
6585is there any ground for anxiety, any vestige of our past misery?
6585not one of_ them_ right either?
6585or again when you say everything is material, and Plato recognizes an immaterial element also in all that exists?
6585or can we halve it?
6585or do you decide that they are''foul mire''without personal experience?
6585or is it a soothsayer or Chaldean expert that you trust?
6585or were you confident in your own unaided discrimination?
6585or when they have once got up, must they stay there, conversing with Virtue, and smiling at wealth and glory and pleasure?
6585or would some Ethiopian elder remark, How do you know, my confident friend?
6585says I;''You would exact mutation from us?
6585see my nearest and dearest slaughtered before my eyes?
6585they tell me there are a great many other philosophers; is that so?
6585those who have been by which road, and under whose guidance?
6585was it not a_ dignus vindice nodus_?
6585wealth, glory, pleasures incomparable?
6585what do you advise, my counsel?
6585what his previous training?
6585what his studies?
6585what his subsidiary accomplishments?
6585when are you to be up?
6585which next?
6585who has wrought the change?
6585why seek to deprive me of a people''s gratitude?
6585will it avail me to say I trusted my friend Hermotimus?
6585with Onomacritus?''
6585you have never been in foreign parts, nor had any experience of other nations._ Shall I tell him the old man''s question was justified?
8418''Tis he!--What, sirrah, how Show''st thou before my portals?
8418-- Are we so different?
8418... Aye, and Pentheus, where is he, My son?
8418A MAIDEN Who speaketh?
8418A WOMAN God, is it so soon finished?
8418A WOMAN Say, friends, what think ye?
8418AGAVE But how should we be on the hills this day?
8418AGAVE Dost praise it?
8418AGAVE In what place was it?
8418AGAVE Laid in due state?
8418AGAVE Should God be like a proud man in his rage?
8418AGAVE The daughters.... LEADER The daughters?
8418AGAVE What seest thou here to chide, or not to bless?
8418AGAVE Where shall I turn me else?
8418AGAVE Who slew him?--How came I to hold this thing?
8418AGAVE Why went he to Kithaeron?
8418ANOTHER Nay, are there not men there?
8418Ah wife, sweet wife, what name Can fit thine heavy lot?
8418All That are or shall be?
8418Am I enough trod down?
8418And couldst thou dream that_ I_...?
8418And how runs thy law?
8418And if for once thou hast slipped chain, Give thanks!--Or shall I knot thine arms again?
8418And must all lovers die, then?
8418And must thou, then, turn And struggle?
8418And what help seek, O wounded to despair?
8418And where Gone straying from my wholesome mind?
8418Are they the same?
8418Are we not told His is the soul of that dead life of old That sprang from mine own daughter?
8418At last he brushed his sobs away, and spake:"Why this fond loitering?
8418Aye, men will rail that I forgot my years, To dance and wreath with ivy these white hairs; What recks it?
8418Blasphemies That crave the very gibbet?
8418But here, Out in the wide sea fallen, and full of fear, Hopest thou so easily to swim to land?
8418But soft, methinks a footstep sounds even now within the hall;''Tis he; how think ye he will stand, and what words speak withal?
8418But what is it?
8418But why this subtle talk?
8418CADMUS And in all Thebes shall no man dance but we?
8418CADMUS And that wild tremour, is it with thee still?
8418CADMUS And what child in Echîon''s house had birth?
8418CADMUS Is it the same, or changèd in thy sight?
8418CADMUS O Child, why wilt thou reach thine arms to me, As yearns the milk- white swan, when old swans die?
8418CADMUS O cruel Truth, is this thine home- coming?
8418CADMUS Shall things of dust the Gods''dark ways despise?
8418CADMUS Thou bearest in thine arms an head-- what head?
8418CADMUS Wears it the likeness of a lion to thee?
8418CADMUS What husband led thee of old from mine abode?
8418Canst lead me hence Unseen of any?
8418Clasped he his death indeed, Clasped the rod?
8418Clinging to my sleeve?
8418DIONYSUS And seeing ye must, what is it that ye wait?
8418DIONYSUS Come, say what it shall be, My doom; what dire thing wilt thou do to me?
8418DIONYSUS Doth it change So soon, all thy desire to see this strange Adoring?
8418DIONYSUS Fell ye so quick despairing, when beneath the Gate I passed?
8418DIONYSUS Said I not, or didst thou mark not me, There was One living that should set me free?
8418DIONYSUS So much?
8418DIONYSUS So soft?
8418DIONYSUS What Dost fear?
8418DIONYSUS What, can not God o''erleap a wall?
8418DIONYSUS When I look on thee, it seems I see their very selves!--But stay; why streams That lock abroad, not where I laid it, crossed Under the coif?
8418DIONYSUS Wilt thou be led By me, and try the venture?
8418DIONYSUS Wouldst have them slay thee dead?
8418DIONYSUS Wouldst liefer draw the sword and spill men''s blood?
8418DIONYSUS Wouldst wreck the Nymphs''wild temples, and the brown Rocks, where Pan pipes at noonday?
8418DIONYSUS Yet cravest thou such A sight as would much grieve thee?
8418DIONYSUS(_ while tending him_) And if thou prove Their madness true, aye, more than true, what love And thanks hast thou for me?
8418Did I fall in some god''s snare?
8418Dost see This sunlight and this earth?
8418Dost thou mark us not, nor cherish, Who implore thee, and adore thee?
8418Doth Hecat hold thee perchance, or Pan?
8418Doth she of the Mountains work her ban, Or the dread Corybantes bind thee?
8418Dreams?
8418Drive me from thy sight unheard?
8418For thine ear bent low to a lying Queen, For thine heart so swift amid things unseen?
8418Force me?
8418Gibes of the unknown wanderer?
8418HENCHMAN How then?
8418HENCHMAN Ye women, whither shall I go to seek King Theseus?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Am I so cool?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Dost see me, Mistress, nearing my last sleep?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Father, where art thou?
8418HIPPOLYTUS O God, why hast Thou made this gleaming snare, Woman, to dog us on the happy earth?
8418HIPPOLYTUS O ye great Gods, wherefore unlock not I My lips, ere yet ye have slain me utterly, Ye whom I love most?
8418HIPPOLYTUS The Cyprian?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Thou seekst my heart, my tears?
8418HIPPOLYTUS What wouldst thou?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Where shall I turn me?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Who guide thy chariot, keep thy shrine- flowers fresh?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Who now shall hunt with thee or hold thy quiver?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Why, when thy speech was all so guiltless?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Wilt verily cast me now beyond thy pale, Not wait for Time, the lifter of the veil?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Wilt weigh nor oath nor faith nor prophet''s word To prove me?
8418HIPPOLYTUS Ye stones, will ye not speak?
8418HIPPOLYTUS(_ misunderstanding him; then guessing at something of the truth_) What?
8418HUNTSMAN And good words love, and grace in all men''s sight?
8418HUNTSMAN Clean?
8418HUNTSMAN How deem''st thou of the Gods?
8418HUNTSMAN Knowest thou one law, that through the world has won?
8418HUNTSMAN My Prince-- for"Master"name I none but God-- Gave I good counsel, wouldst thou welcome it?
8418HUNTSMAN Why then wilt thou be proud, and worship not... HIPPOLYTUS Whom?
8418Ha, have I found the way to sting thee, there?
8418Hast thou aught beyond?
8418Hast thou no foes about thee, then, that one-- Thou vile King!--must be turned against thy son?
8418Hast thou played thy part?
8418Hath Time struck that hoary brow?
8418Hath some friend proved false?
8418Have I not welcomed thee?
8418He is no man, but a wonder; Did the Earth- Child not beget him, As a red Giant, to set him Against God, against the Thunder?
8418Heard ye not?
8418Heard ye what she said?
8418His own house, or where?
8418How can I too much hate you, while the ill Ye work upon the world grows deadlier still?
8418How closed the snare Of Heaven to slay the shamer of my blood?
8418How did he die?
8418How didst thou break thy cage?
8418How hast thou''scaped the man of sin?
8418How hath it sped?
8418How many fathers, when a son has strayed And toiled beneath the Cyprian, bring him aid, Not chiding?
8418How many, deem''st thou, of men good and wise Know their own home''s blot, and avert their eyes?
8418How?
8418I would not have mine honour hidden away; Why should I have my shame before men''s eyes Kept living?
8418If thou die now, shall child of thine be heir To Theseus''castle?
8418In full day Or vision of night?
8418In the house?--Phaedra, what fear is this?
8418In thine own Nysa, thou our help alone?
8418Is he in this dwelling?
8418Is it the stain of sins done long ago, Some fell God still remembereth, That must so dim and fret my life with death?
8418Is that so strange?
8418Is there any way With man''s sore heart, save only to forget?
8418Is there not blood before thine eyes even now?
8418Kithaeron''s steeps and all that in them is-- How say''st thou?--Could my shoulders lift the whole?
8418Know I not the fire And perilous flood of a young man''s desire, Desperate as any woman, and as blind, When Cypris stings?
8418LEADER And Pentheus, O Mother, Thy child?
8418LEADER Can he not look into her face and know?
8418LEADER Canst thou not force her, then?
8418LEADER How?
8418LEADER I praise this?
8418LEADER Kithaeron?
8418LEADER O Light in Darkness, is it thou?
8418LEADER Oh, what was left if thou wert gone?
8418LEADER Thou art glad?
8418LEADER Thou know''st no cause?
8418LEADER What sound, what word, O Women, Friend, makes that sharp terror start Out at thy lips?
8418LEADER What wilt thou?
8418LEADER What, O my King?
8418LEADER What, is she mad?
8418LEADER Where in the wildwood?
8418LEADER Where wilt thou turn thee, where?
8418LEADER Who first came nigh him?
8418LEADER Who was next in the band on him?
8418Love?--Oh, what say''st thou?
8418MESSENGER And deem''st thou Thebes so beggared, so forlorn Of manhood, as to sit beneath thy scorn?
8418Me, far away And innocent of sin?
8418My wife?
8418NURSE Have I not tried all ways, and all in vain?
8418NURSE O Son, what wilt thou?
8418NURSE Some enemy''s spell hath made thy spirit dim?
8418NURSE That stings thee?
8418NURSE Theseus, the King, hath wronged thee in man''s wise?
8418NURSE Thou seest?
8418NURSE Thou wouldst dread everything!--What dost thou dread?
8418NURSE What mean''st thou, Child?
8418NURSE What wouldst thou with them-- fancies all!-- Thy hunting and thy fountain brink?
8418NURSE Who knows?
8418NURSE Why hide what honours thee?
8418NURSE(_ after a pause, wondering_) Thy hand is clean, O Child, from stain of blood?
8418NURSE(_ starting_) On thee?
8418NURSE(_ suddenly throwing herself in supplication at PHAEDRA''S feet_) Not wrong me, whom thou wouldst all desolate leave?
8418Nay, Child, what profits silence?
8418Nay, dare ye hear The desolate cry of the young Queen''s misery?
8418Nay, when in might she swoops, no strength can stem Cypris; and if man yields him, she is sweet; But is he proud and stubborn?
8418Never more, then, shalt thou lay Thine hand to this white beard, and speak to me Thy"Mother''s Father"; ask"Who wrongeth thee?
8418No; not secret?
8418Nor when the unrest began?
8418Not Pittheus?
8418O Priest, is this thy face?
8418O dead in anger, dead in shame, The long, long wrestling ere thy breath was cold?
8418O fell, fell steeds that my own hand fed, Have ye maimed me and slain, that loved me of yore?
8418O ill- starred Wife, What brought this blackness over all thy life?
8418O wild young steed, what prophet knows The power that holds thy curb, and throws Thy swift heart from its race?
8418Oh, tell me, why, Why art thou silent?
8418Oh, what echoes thus?
8418Oh, why speak things to please our ears?
8418One of my children torn from me?
8418Or are they dumb as death, This herd of thralls, my high house harboureth?
8418Or did some fresh thing befall?
8418Or doth she seek to die?
8418Or in thine ear Whispered some slander?
8418Or the god That rules thee, is he other than our gods?
8418Or think of ways To trap the secret of the sick heart''s pain?
8418Or this bare hand And shoulder to the crags, to wrench them down?
8418Or were it best to wait Darkened for evermore, and deem your state Not misery, though ye know no happiness?
8418Our rule doth curse the tempters, and no less Who yieldeth to the tempters.--How, thou say''st,"Dupes that I jest at?"
8418PENTHEUS And after?
8418PENTHEUS And comest thou first to Thebes, to have thy God Established?
8418PENTHEUS And how Mean''st thou the further plan?
8418PENTHEUS And so thine eyes Saw this God plain; what guise had he?
8418PENTHEUS And what good bring they to the worshipper?
8418PENTHEUS And whence these revelations, that thy band Spreadeth in Hellas?
8418PENTHEUS Aye, and next?
8418PENTHEUS How comest thou here?
8418PENTHEUS How is thy worship held, by night or day?
8418PENTHEUS Say; stand I not as Ino stands, or she Who bore me?
8418PENTHEUS Shall it be bars of iron?
8418PENTHEUS Thou trickster?
8418PENTHEUS What like be they, these emblems?
8418PENTHEUS What of the city streets?
8418PENTHEUS What way Descended he upon thee?
8418PENTHEUS What?
8418PENTHEUS Who?
8418PENTHEUS(_ brutally_) Is there a Zeus there, that can still beget Young Gods?
8418PENTHEUS(_ not listening to him_) In my right hand Is it, or thus, that I should bear the wand To be most like to them?
8418PHAEDRA A way?
8418PHAEDRA Is it a potion or a salve?
8418PHAEDRA My children?
8418PHAEDRA My hand is clean; but is my heart, O God?
8418PHAEDRA What man''s?
8418PHAEDRA Why art thou ever subtle?
8418PHAEDRA(_ again hesitating_) What is it that they mean, who say men... love?
8418PHAEDRA(_ calmly_) Why, what thing should it be?
8418PHAEDRA(_ musing_) Die; but how die?
8418PHAEDRA(_ rising and trying to move away_) What wouldst thou?
8418Pollution, is it?
8418Said I not-- Knew I not thine heart?--to name To no one soul this that is now my shame?
8418Say, Oh, say What thing hath come to thee?
8418Sayst thou so?
8418See I not In motley fawn- skins robed the vision- seer Teiresias?
8418Shall I bow my head beneath this wrong, And cower to thee?
8418Shall I feel the dew on my throat, and the stream Of wind in my hair?
8418Shall I hold my peace?
8418Shall I set My whole tale forth, or veil the stranger part?
8418Shall our white feet gleam In the dim expanses?
8418Shall strangers hear this tone So wild, and thoughts so fever- flown?
8418Shall the hall Of Pentheus racked in ruin fall?
8418Should the gates of Pentheus quell me, or his darkness make me fast?
8418Should we haste within, And from her own hand''s knotting loose the Queen?
8418Silent still?
8418Some dire deed beyond recall?
8418Some new stroke hath touched, unknown to me, The sister cities of my sovranty?
8418Sprang there from thy father''s blood Thy little soul all lonely?
8418Stand I tainted here, Though utterly innocent?
8418TEIRESIAS Or prove our wit on Heaven''s high mysteries?
8418THESEUS A fit of the old cold anguish?
8418THESEUS Gone?
8418THESEUS Ho, Women, and what means this loud acclaim Within the house?
8418THESEUS How sayst thou?
8418THESEUS O heart of man, what height wilt venture next?
8418THESEUS Oh, horror piled on horror!--Here is writ... Nay, who could bear it, who could speak of it?
8418THESEUS Thou leav''st me clear of murder?
8418THESEUS What?
8418THESEUS What?
8418THESEUS(_ as though unmoved_) How slain?
8418Tell me all-- That held her?
8418The Wild Bull of the Tide?
8418The woman''s?
8418Then Is it a sickness meet for aid of men?
8418There was a Queen, an Amazon... NURSE Hippolytus, say''st thou?
8418Think thee now; How toucheth this the part of Dionyse To hold maids pure perforce?
8418Thou bitter King, art thou glad withal For thy murdered son?
8418Thou fearest for the damsels?
8418Thou hast heard of Tmolus, the bright hill of flowers?
8418Thou, Zeus, dost see me?
8418To stand from fear set free, to breathe and wait; To hold a hand uplifted over Hate; And shall not Loveliness be loved for ever?
8418To stand from fear set free, to breathe and wait; To hold a hand uplifted over Hate; And shall not Loveliness be loved for ever?
8418To what friend''s door Betake me, banished on a charge so sore?
8418Too much?
8418Was I some fond False plotter, that I schemed to win through her Thy castle''s heirdom?
8418Was he naught, then, to you, That ye cast him away, The stainless and true, From the old happy places?
8418Was it Thy will to make Man, why his birth Through Love and Woman?
8418Was that poor flesh so passing fair, beyond All woman''s loveliness?
8418Was there some other man, whose wife He had like mine denied, that sought his life?
8418What am I carrying here?
8418What call ye these?
8418What could I but despair?
8418What dost thou bid me seek for there?
8418What doth silence know Of skill to stem the bitter flood of woe?
8418What else is Wisdom?
8418What else is Wisdom?
8418What end comes to thy daring and thy crime?
8418What flesh bare this child?
8418What garb wilt thou bestow About me?
8418What help, O ye who love me, can come near, What god or man appear, To aid a thing so evil and so lost?
8418What is it with her?
8418What is this death- fraught mystery?
8418What joy hath her bridal brought her?
8418What malign Swift stroke, O heart discounselled, leapt on thee?
8418What man''s son?
8418What oaths, what subtle words, shall stronger be Than this dead hand, to clear the guilt from thee?
8418What of man''s endeavour Or God''s high grace so lovely and so great?
8418What of man''s endeavour Or God''s high grace, so lovely and so great?
8418What ominous cry half- heard Hath leapt upon thine heart?
8418What shelter now is left or guard?
8418What sought he?
8418What spell to loose the iron knot of fate?
8418What was it?
8418What will she say?
8418What wouldst thou?
8418What wouldst thou?
8418What, will ye speak?
8418What?
8418What?
8418What?
8418When will this breathing end in that last deep Pain that is painlessness?
8418Whence have ye brought him?
8418Where is he?
8418Where then shall I stand, where tread The dance and toss this bowed and hoary head?
8418Wherefore did she die?
8418Who espies us?
8418Who freed thee from the snare?
8418Who stints thine honour, or with malice stirs Thine heart?
8418Why do we let their handmaids pass the gate?
8418Why should we tarry?
8418Why was thine hand so strong, thine heart so bold?
8418Why?
8418Will no one bring me a swift blade?
8418Wilt thou slay thy kin?
8418Wore he the woman''s weed?
8418Wottest thou three prayers were thine Of sure fulfilment, from thy Sire divine?
8418Yea, the Death that came Ablaze from heaven of old, the same Hot splendour of the shaft of God?
8418Yon sun shines twofold in the sky, Thebes twofold and the Wall of Seven Gates.... And is it a Wild Bull this, that walks and waits Before me?
8418[ PENTHEUS_ has started as though to seek his army at the gate._] PENTHEUS Aye, if I obey Mine own slaves''will; how else?
8418[_ At these words PHAEDRA gradually recovers herself and pays attention._] PHAEDRA What have I said?
8418[_ Fire leaps upon the Tomb of Semelê._] A MAIDEN Ah, saw ye, marked ye there the flame From Semelê''s enhallowed sod Awakened?
8418[_ She throws herself on the ground close to the statue._] CHORUS_ Some Women_ O Women, have ye heard?
8418_ A Maiden_ Oh, where art thou?
8418_ All_ Still my prayer toward thee quivers, Dircê, still to thee I hie me; Why, O Blessed among Rivers, Wilt thou fly me and deny me?
8418_ Another_ Who lingers in the road?
8418_ Divers Maidens_ Where is the Home for me?
8418_ Others_ How wilt thou bear thee through this livelong day, Lost, and thine evil naked to the light?
8418_ Others_ Nay, is it sin that upon thee lies, Sin of forgotten sacrifice, In thine own Dictynna''s sea- wild eyes?
8418_ Some Women_ Is this some Spirit, O child of man?
8418_ Women_ What wilt thou grant me, O God?
8418what is coming?
8418what wilt thou say, Child?
8418whom shall I call of mortal men Happy?
8418with women worshipping?
8418wouldst thou shame the house where thou wast born?
871And are all profited by what they hear, or only some among them? 871 And no doubt to a person of experience as a trainer, a physician?"
871And these things the best you possess, or have you anything more precious?
871And what is the end?
871And your body-- have you ever considered about entrusting it to any one''s care?
871But how can one endure such people?
871Can you tell me, sir, to whose care you entrust your horses?
871Do we know then what Man is? 871 How does the good Felicion?
871How dost thou depart?
871How so?
871How then may this come to pass?
871If then all things that grow, nay, our own bodies, are thus bound up with the whole, is not this still truer of our souls? 871 In what sense art thou then shut out?"
871In what way?
871Is it then thou that art changed?
871Is it to the first comer, who knows nothing about them?
871Is there no reward then?
871Is there, do you think,replied Epictetus,"an art of speaking as of other things, if it is to be done skilfully and with profit to the hearer?"
871Is this oath like theirs?
871Nay, but why did He bring one into the world on these conditions?
871Say then, what are things indifferent?
871Say then, what follows?
871Shall I then no longer be?
871The good and evil of what? 871 Then why comest thou to the door?"
871Then you will say nothing to me?
871Well, do you take care of it yourself? 871 Well, what of the man who takes care of your gold, your silver or your raiment?"
871What can I do?
871What can you mean?
871What then do I lack?
871What then dost thou call them now? 871 What, even from a reviler?"
871Why, who told you that your powers were equal to God''s?
871Why?
871Will you be standing there to tell those that read them, That is my name written there? 871 --And what serenity is this that lies at the mercy of every passer- by? 871 --Had he not sold him as good- for- nothing? 871 --If a man depart thus minded, is it not enough? 871 --What, are they then thine, and not His that gave them-- His that made thee? 871 --Who comes to the School with a sincere wish to learn: to submit his principles to correction and himself to treatment? 871 And are our ears practised in any degree on the subject? 871 And are there none at Olympia? 871 And at what moment would you have endured another examining your principles and proving that they were unsound? 871 And even if you could now be there in every case, what will you do when you are dead?
871And how brought He thee into the world?
871And how does it come to pass?
871And how if my fellow- traveller himself turns upon me and robs me?
871And how shall I be profited, if he is stripped and falls to lamentation and weeping?
871And if God supply not food, has He not, as a wise Commander, sounded the signal for retreat and nothing more?
871And if any of us inquired,"What is Epaphroditus doing?"
871And if you are stationed in a high position, are you therefor forthwith set up for a tyrant?
871And in his wanderings through the world how many friends and comrades did he find?
871And in what wise treat I those of whom you stand in fear and awe?
871And may not fever await me there?
871And think, beyond Nicopolis what memory of you will there be?"
871And what harm that the philosopher should be known by his acts, instead of mere outward signs and symbols?"
871And what lack I yet?
871And what marvel if thou purchase so great a thing at so great and high a price?
871And what oath will you swear?
871And what report did this spy bring us of Pain, what of Pleasure, what of Want?
871And what says he?
871And when you were a young man, entered upon public life, and were pleading causes and making a name, who any longer seemed equal to you?
871And where wilt Thou have me to be?
871And who are we that are His children and what work were we born to perform?
871And will you not keep your oath when you have sworn it?
871Are not the Gods nigh unto all places alike; see they not alike what everywhere comes to pass?
871Are these not things indifferent and nothing to us?
871Are they at all changed?"
871Are we not in a manner kinsmen of the Gods, and have we not come from them?
871Are you not cramped for room?
871Are you not drenched when it rains?
871Are you not scorched by the heat?
871As it is, what does pass?
871Ask me too if he shall govern; and again I will answer, Fool, what greater government shall he hold than he holds already?
871Ask you whether a man shall engage in the administration of the State who has engaged in such an Administration as this?
871Askest thou what loss?
871At Rome or Athens?
871At Thebes or on a desert island?
871But hast Thou no further need of me?
871But how loved he them?
871But if he sits by like a stone or a tuft of grass, how can he rouse a man''s desire?"
871But if thou desirest to study to its proper end, what else is this than a life that flows on tranquil and serene?
871But now, because God is thy Maker, is that why thou carest not of what sort thou shalt show thyself to be?
871But what is it that I desire?
871But when did you ever undertake a voyage for the purpose of reviewing your own principles and getting rid of any of them that proved unsound?
871But whither shall I fly?
871But( you say) God is unjust is this.--Why?
871CII Thou wouldst do good unto men?
871CL What foolish talk is this?
871CLII Whom then shall I fear?
871CLXXXII Asked, Who is the rich man?
871CLXXXIX What wouldst thou be found doing when overtaken by Death?
871CLXXXVIII If a man has this peace-- not the peace proclaimed by Cæsar( how indeed should he have it to proclaim?
871CVI Can any profit be derived from these men?
871CXII Death?
871CXL Why art thou thus insatiable?
871CXLI Art thou then free?
871CXVI"But to marry and to rear offspring,"said the young man,"will the Cynic hold himself bound to undertake this as a chief duty?"
871CXX Does a Philosopher apply to people to come and hear him?
871CXXV Know you not that the thing is a warfare?
871CXXVI Have you again forgotten?
871CXXXIX And dost thou that hast received all from another''s hands, repine and blame the Giver, if He takes anything from thee?
871CXXXVIII"How understandest thou attach himself to God?"
871Can any man cast me beyond the limits of the World?
871Can not a fellow- traveller be found that is honest and loyal, strong and secure against surprise?
871Can there be no Administrator?
871Can you show me then what care you bestow on a soul?
871Did any one teach you the right method, or did you discover it yourself?"
871Did you examine your principles when a boy?
871Did you not do everything just as you do now?
871Do I hurt any man?
871Do you hold this unjust?
871Do you see whither you are looking-- down to the earth, to the pit, to those despicable laws of the dead?
871Do you understand what Demonstration is?
871Doth it pass thee by?
871Feeding thy soul on thoughts like these, dost thou debate in what place happiness awaits thee?
871For having given thee endurance and greatness of soul?
871For having made such things to be no evils?
871For if you are not acting rightly, shun the act itself; if rightly, however, why fear misplaced censure?
871For on whose account should he embrace that method of life?
871For placing happiness within thy reach, even when enduring them?
871For to what better or more watchful Guardian could He have committed which of us?
871For what can I see in you to stir me, as a spirited horse will stir a judge of horses?
871For what is a Man?
871Had Socrates no compensation for this?
871Had we but understanding, should we ever cease hymning and blessing the Divine Power, both openly and in secret, and telling of His gracious gifts?
871Has any dish that is being served reached thee?
871Has it not yet come?
871Has the boy fallen?
871Hast Thou ever seen me of more doleful countenance on that account?
871Have I ever blamed Thee or found fault with Thine administration?
871Have I ever laid anything to Thy charge?
871Have I ever murmured at aught that came to pass, or wished it otherwise?
871Have I in anything transgressed the relations of life?
871Have I in aught perverted the faculties, the senses, the natural principles that Thou didst give me?
871Have I not ever drawn nigh unto Thee with cheerful look, waiting upon Thy commands, attentive to Thy signals?
871Have I placed the good of each in the power of any other than himself?
871Have we any close connection or relation with Him or not?
871Have you not to bathe with discomfort?
871Have you not to endure the clamor and shouting and such annoyances as these?
871He therefore asks thee:--"In the Schools, what didst thou call exile, imprisonment, bonds, death and shame?"
871How comes it then that they prove so much stronger than you?
871How could you stand your ground and suffer that to be proved?
871How else than as became one who was fully assured that he was the kinsman of Gods?
871How else, as the Moon waxes and wanes, as the Sun approaches and recedes, can it be that such vicissitude and alternation is seen in earthly things?
871How is it then that thou dost not know thy high descent-- dost not know whence thou comest?
871How much greater cause is here for offering sacrifice, than if a man should become Consul or Prefect?
871How so?
871II How then do men act?
871If God had entrusted thee with an orphan, wouldst thou have thus neglected him?
871Is any discontented with being alone?
871Is any discontented with his children?
871Is any discontented with his parents?
871Is aught that is outside thy will either good or bad?
871Is death preferable, or life?
871Is it aught but marble, bronze, gold, or ivory?
871Is it for this that you accuse God?
871Is it not as slaves?
871Is it not true that death is no evil?
871Is my father bad?
871Is my neighbour bad?
871Is not this ignorance the cause of all the mistakes and mischances of men since the human race began?
871Is that not so?
871Is there anything new in all this?
871Know you not that Freedom is a glorious thing and of great worth?
871Know you not that a good man does nothing for appearance''sake, but for the sake of having done right?
871Knowest thou not that as the foot is no more a foot if detached from the body, so thou in like case art no longer a Man?
871Knows he not the God within him; knows he not with whom he is starting on his way?
871L Wouldst thou have men speak good of thee?
871LVI How is it then that certain external things are said to be natural, and other contrary to Nature?
871LX Seek then the real nature of the Good in that without whose presence thou wilt not admit the Good to exist in aught else.--What then?
871LXXIV"The question at stake,"said Epictetus,"is no common one; it is this:--Are we in our senses, or are we not?"
871LXXVIII Who then is a Stoic-- in the sense that we call a statue of Phidias which is modelled after that master''s art?
871LXXXV Seemeth it nothing to you, never to accuse, never to blame either God or Man?
871LXXXVI How are we constituted by Nature?
871LXXXVIII Which of us does not admire what Lycurgus the Spartan did?
871Nay, do you understand what Nature is?
871Nothing more?
871Now here comes in the danger: first, that the great man may answer,"Why, what is that to you, my good fellow?
871O fool, seek you a nobler administration that that in which he is engaged?
871Or suppose a man sneers and jeers or shows a malignant temper?
871Or what reason hast thou( tell me) for desiring to read?
871Or when you were a stripling, attending the school of oratory and practising the art yourself, what did you ever imagine you lacked?
871Pain or pleasure?
871Patron or no patron, what care I?
871Seems it to you so small a thing and worthless, to be a good man, and happy therein?
871Seemth this to thee a little thing?"
871Shall I not use the power to the end for which I received it, instead of moaning and wailing over what comes to pass?
871Slave, would you then have aught else then what is best?
871So when the crisis is upon you, remember that God, like a trainer of wrestlers, has matched you with a rough and stalwart antagonist.--"To what end?"
871Such and such a wealthy man, of consular rank?
871Such will I show myself to you all.--"What, exempt from sickness also: from age, from death?"
871THE GOLDEN SAYINGS OF EPICTETUS Translated and Arranged by Hastings Crossley I Are these the only works of Providence within us?
871That ever hemlock should have been given to the body of Socrates; that that should have breathed its life away!--Do you marvel at this?
871The workmanship of such an Artist, wilt thou dishonor Him?
871Then why mock yourselves and delude others?
871Think you this a small matter?
871Think you to be a philosopher while acting as you do?
871Thinkest thou that I speak of a God of silver or gold, that is without thee?
871Thus would I fain to be found employed, so that I may say to God,"Have I in aught transgressed Thy commands?
871To be free, to be noble, to be modest( for what other living thing is capable of blushing, or of feeling the impression of shame?)
871To the wilderness?
871VII What saith Antisthenes?
871Well, as it was, what did he do?
871Well, does it need but a short time?
871What Physician applies to men to come and be healed?
871What age?
871What am I to do?
871What care I, if I am great of heart, for aught that can come to pass?
871What companion on the road shall he await for protection?
871What else can I that am old and lame do but sing to God?
871What else indeed did you come to judge of?
871What further occasion for flattery?
871What further room is there for tears?
871What has happened?
871What has happened?
871What haven of safety do they make for?
871What human artist''s work, for example, has in it the faculties that are displayed in fashioning it?
871What is His nature and how does He administer?
871What life is fairer and more noble, what end happier than his?
871What matters it to me?
871What shall cast me down or disturb me?
871What shall seem painful?
871What then am I to say to you?
871What then have I to do?
871What then is to be done?
871What then, is freedom madness?
871What then?
871What then?
871What then?
871What time did you ever set yourself for that?
871What tyrant, what robber, what tribunals have any terrors for those who thus esteem the body and all that belong to it as of no account?
871What witness dost thou bear to God?"
871What words suffice to praise or set them forth?
871What, callest thou aught of evil omen save that which signifies some evil thing?
871When they flee from the huntsman''s feathers in affright, which way do they turn?
871When thou art about to bid farewell to the Sun and Moon itself, wilt thou sit down and cry like a child?
871When thou eatest, wilt thou not remember who thou art that eatest and whom thou feedest?
871Where then for him was the ideal Good?
871Whereas if Cæsar were to adopt you, your haughty looks would be intolerable; will you not be elated at knowing that you are the son of God?
871While should it come to pass that I offend him, whither shall I flee from his presence?
871Whither shall he fall for refuge-- how shall he pass by unassailed?
871Who amongst you makes this his aim?
871Who had in a trice converted him into a wiseacre?
871Who then shall rule one that is thus minded?
871Who when he seeth me doth not think that he beholdeth his Master and his King?
871Who would Hercules have been had he loitered at home?
871Who, to gain a sense of his wants?
871Whom did you ever visit for that object?
871Whom shall we hearken to, you or him?
871Why not a son of God?
871Why should he fear aught that comes to pass among men?
871Why should one envy another?
871Why should you stand in awe of them that have much or are placed in power, especially if they be also strong and passionate?
871Why then be surprised if you carry home from the School exactly what you bring into it?
871Why then cling to the one, and neglect the other?
871Why then do you bid me become even as the multitude?
871Why then repine?
871Why, as far as in you lies, would you corrupt your Judge, and lead your Counsellor astray?
871Why, tell me what profit a wrestler gains from him who exercises him beforehand?
871Why, what didst thou hear, what didst thou learn?
871Why, what is it that you ask me?
871Why, what should they do to us?
871Why, who art thou, and to what end comest thou here?
871Why?
871Will you not then perceive either who you are or unto what end you were born: or for what purpose the power of contemplation has been bestowed on you?
871Wilt Thou that I now depart from the great Assembly of men?
871Wilt thou not study, as Plato saith, to endure, not death alone, but torture, exile, stripes-- in a word, to render up all that is not thine own?
871Wilt thou that I continue to live?
871Would He tell thee aught else than these things?
871XCI Canst thou judge men?
871XLII Has a man been raised to tribuneship?
871XLIX In what character dost thou now come forward?
871XLV Is there smoke in the room?
871XXI How did Socrates bear himself in this regard?
871XXXII What then is the chastisement of those who accept it not?
871XXXVIII"How shall my brother cease to be wroth with me?"
871Yet what harm have I done to you?
871Your body?
871Your dress?
871a horse, an ox?"
871am I not free?
871am I not untouched by sorrow, by fear?
871are you my master?"
871art thou not contented with the daily sights that meet thine eyes?
871can you follow me in any degree when I say that I shall have to use demonstration?
871canst thou behold aught greater or nobler than the Sun, Moon, and Stars; than the outspread Earth and Sea?
871do I say man is not made for an active life?
871do you seek any greater reward for a good man than doing what is right and just?
871does he not rather, of his own nature, attract those that will be benefited by him-- like the sun that warms, the food that sustains them?
871hath any of you seen me with a sorrowful countenance?
871have you not received greatness of heart, received courage, received fortitude?
871how can I any longer lay claim to right principles, if I am not content with being what I am, but am all aflutter about what I am supposed to be?
871if you have it, well and good; if not, you will depart: the door is open-- why lament?
871in what place thou shalt do God''s pleasure?
871is there anything better than what is God''s good pleasure?
871must I drive you to Philosophy?
871seeing that most of you are blinded, should there not be some one to fill this place, and sing the hymn to God on behalf of all men?
871the lords of the Bedchamber, lest they should shut me out?
871think you go on thus eating, thus drinking, giving way in like manner to wrath and to displeasure?
871to wear ever the same countenance in going forth as in coming in?
871was it not He that made the Light manifest unto thee, that gave thee fellow- workers, and senses, and the power to reason?
871what True or False is?
871what his nature is?
871what is the idea we have of him?
871when have I accused any?
871when have I laid anything to the charge of God or Man?
871when shall I see Athens and its Acropolis again?"
871while he that trains me to keep my temper does me none?
871why say"Socrates"?
871why thus unreasonable?
1744''But whither, Socrates, are you going?
1744''How can I contribute to the greatest happiness of others?''
1744''Is pleasure an evil?
1744''What is the place of happiness or utility in a system of moral philosophy?''
1744''Why, Socrates,''they will say,''how can we?
1744''Yes, I know, but what is the application?''
1744''good'') to pleasures in general, when he can not deny that they are different?
1744--Is not this a very rational and suitable reply, which mind has made, both on her own behalf, as well as on the behalf of memory and true opinion?
1744Am I not right in saying that they have a deeper want and greater pleasure in the satisfaction of their want?
1744And he who thus deceives himself may be strong or weak?
1744And here several questions arise for consideration:--What is the meaning of pure and impure, of moderate and immoderate?
1744And if he is strong we fear him, and if he is weak we laugh at him, which is a pleasure, and yet we envy him, which is a pain?
1744And ignorance is a misfortune?
1744And in which is pleasure to find a place?
1744And is not the element which makes this mixed life eligible more akin to mind than to pleasure?
1744And is not this the science which has a firmer grasp of them than any other?
1744And mind what you say: I ask whether any animal who is in that condition can possibly have any feeling of pleasure or pain, great or small?
1744And must I include music, which is admitted to be guess- work?
1744And must I then finish the argument?
1744And now I want to know whether I may depart; or will you keep me here until midnight?
1744And now let us go back and interrogate wisdom and mind: Would you like to have any pleasures in the mixture?
1744And now we turn to the pleasures; shall I admit them?
1744And one form of ignorance is self- conceit-- a man may fancy himself richer, fairer, better, wiser than he is?
1744And there are colours which are of the same character, and have similar pleasures; now do you understand my meaning?
1744And they will reply:--''What pleasures do you mean?''
1744And what shall we say about the rest?
1744And yet the envious man finds something pleasing in the misfortunes of others?
1744And you remember how pleasures mingle with pains in lamentation and bereavement?
1744Another question is raised: May not pleasures, like opinions, be true and false?
1744Answer now, and tell me whether you see, I will not say more, but more intense and excessive pleasures in wantonness than in temperance?
1744Are we not desirous of happiness, at any rate for ourselves and our friends, if not for all mankind?
1744Are we not liable, or rather certain, as in the case of sight, to be deceived by distance and relation?
1744Are we not, on the contrary, almost wholly unconscious of this and similar phenomena?''
1744But at an early stage of the controversy another question was asked:''Do pleasures differ in kind?
1744But how would you decide this question, Protarchus?
1744But in passing from one to the other, do we not experience neutral states, which although they appear pleasureable or painful are really neither?
1744But is it not distracting to the conscience of a man to be told that in the particular case they are opposed?
1744But is the life of pleasure perfect and sufficient, when deprived of memory, consciousness, anticipation?
1744But still we want truth?
1744But what two notions can be more opposed in many cases than these?
1744But whence comes this common inheritance or stock of moral ideas?
1744But where shall we place mind?
1744Can there be another source?
1744Could this be otherwise?
1744Do not certain ingenious philosophers teach this doctrine, and ought not we to be grateful to them?
1744Do you mean that you are to throw into the cup and mingle the impure and uncertain art which uses the false measure and the false circle?
1744Do you think that any one who asserts pleasure to be the good, will tolerate the notion that some pleasures are good and others bad?
1744Does not the more and less, which dwells in their very nature, prevent their having any end?
1744First we will take the pure sciences; but shall we mingle the impure-- the art which uses the false rule and the false measure?
1744For are not love and sorrow as well as anger''sweeter than honey,''and also full of pain?
1744For have these unities of idea any real existence?
1744For is there not also an absurdity in affirming that good is of the soul only; or in declaring that the best of men, if he be in pain, is bad?
1744For must not pleasure be of all things most absolutely like pleasure,--that is, like itself?
1744For what can be more reasonable than that God should will the happiness of all his creatures?
1744For what in Heaven''s name is the feeling to be called which is thus produced in us?--Pleasure or pain?
1744Have I not given, Philebus, a fair statement of the two sides of the argument?
1744Have we not found that which Socrates and Plato''grew old in seeking''?
1744How, as units, can they be divided and dispersed among different objects?
1744How, if imperishable, can they enter into the world of generation?
1744How, then, can we compare them?
1744I am of opinion that they would certainly answer as follows: PROTARCHUS: How?
1744If this be clearly established, then pleasure will lose the victory, for the good will cease to be identified with her:--Am I not right?
1744If we ask: Which of these many theories is the true one?
1744If we say''Not pleasure, not virtue, not wisdom, nor yet any quality which we can abstract from these''--what then?
1744Is mind or chance the lord of the universe?
1744Is not and was not this what we were saying, Protarchus?
1744Is not this the life of an oyster?
1744Is not this the sort of enquiry in which his life is spent?
1744Is that purest which is greatest or most in quantity, or that which is most unadulterated and freest from any admixture of other colours?
1744Is there not a mixture of feelings in the spectator of tragedy?
1744Is there such a thing as opinion?
1744May not a man who is empty have at one time a sure hope of being filled, and at other times be quite in despair?
1744May we not say of him, that he is in an intermediate state?
1744Must not the union of the two be higher and more eligible than either separately?
1744Or do they exist in their entirety in each object?
1744Or is the life of mind sufficient, if devoid of any particle of pleasure?
1744PHILEBUS: And did not you, Protarchus, propose to answer in my place?
1744PHILEBUS: How so?
1744PHILEBUS: I think so too, but how do his words bear upon us and upon the argument?
1744PHILEBUS: What is that?
1744PROTARCHUS: And pray, what is dialectic?
1744PROTARCHUS: And what is this life of mind?
1744PROTARCHUS: And what was that?
1744PROTARCHUS: And who may they be?
1744PROTARCHUS: And would you like to have a fifth class or cause of resolution as well as a cause of composition?
1744PROTARCHUS: And would you tell me again, sweet Socrates, which of the aforesaid classes is the mixed one?
1744PROTARCHUS: And would you, Socrates, have us agree with them?
1744PROTARCHUS: But how, Socrates, can there be false pleasures and pains?
1744PROTARCHUS: But what, Socrates, are those other marvels connected with this subject which, as you imply, have not yet become common and acknowledged?
1744PROTARCHUS: But when and how does he do this?
1744PROTARCHUS: But why, Socrates, do we ask the question at all?
1744PROTARCHUS: Certainly not, Socrates; but why repeat such questions any more?
1744PROTARCHUS: How can we make the further division which you suggest?
1744PROTARCHUS: How can we?
1744PROTARCHUS: How do they afford an illustration?
1744PROTARCHUS: How do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: How do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: How do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: How indeed?
1744PROTARCHUS: How is that?
1744PROTARCHUS: How is that?
1744PROTARCHUS: How shall I change them?
1744PROTARCHUS: How so?
1744PROTARCHUS: How so?
1744PROTARCHUS: How so?
1744PROTARCHUS: How will that be?
1744PROTARCHUS: How will you proceed?
1744PROTARCHUS: How would you distinguish them?
1744PROTARCHUS: How?
1744PROTARCHUS: How?
1744PROTARCHUS: How?
1744PROTARCHUS: How?
1744PROTARCHUS: How?
1744PROTARCHUS: I believe that you are right, Socrates; but will you try to be a little plainer?
1744PROTARCHUS: In the class of the infinite, you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: In what manner?
1744PROTARCHUS: In what respect?
1744PROTARCHUS: Not if the pleasure is mistaken; how could we?
1744PROTARCHUS: Of what affections, and of what kind of life, are you speaking?
1744PROTARCHUS: Of what nature?
1744PROTARCHUS: Of what nature?
1744PROTARCHUS: Of what?
1744PROTARCHUS: Of whom are you speaking, and what do they mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: Out of the union, that is, of pleasure with mind and wisdom?
1744PROTARCHUS: Then what pleasures, Socrates, should we be right in conceiving to be true?
1744PROTARCHUS: Upon what principle would you make the division?
1744PROTARCHUS: Very likely; but how will this invalidate the argument?
1744PROTARCHUS: What am I to infer?
1744PROTARCHUS: What answer?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are the two kinds?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are they, and how do you separate them?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are they, and how shall we find them?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are they?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are they?
1744PROTARCHUS: What are they?
1744PROTARCHUS: What disorders?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do they mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean by the class of the finite?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean by''intermediate''?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean, and what proof have you to offer of what you are saying?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean, my good friend?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What have you to say?
1744PROTARCHUS: What instance shall we select?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is that?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is that?
1744PROTARCHUS: What is your explanation?
1744PROTARCHUS: What life?
1744PROTARCHUS: What manner of natures are they?
1744PROTARCHUS: What phenomena do you mean?
1744PROTARCHUS: What pleasures?
1744PROTARCHUS: What point?
1744PROTARCHUS: What principle?
1744PROTARCHUS: What question?
1744PROTARCHUS: What question?
1744PROTARCHUS: What question?
1744PROTARCHUS: What question?
1744PROTARCHUS: What question?
1744PROTARCHUS: What road?
1744PROTARCHUS: What shall we say about them, and what course shall we take?
1744PROTARCHUS: What was it?
1744PROTARCHUS: What was that?
1744PROTARCHUS: What will that be?
1744PROTARCHUS: What?
1744PROTARCHUS: When can that be, Socrates?
1744PROTARCHUS: Where shall we begin?
1744PROTARCHUS: Which of them?
1744PROTARCHUS: Who is he?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why do you ask, Socrates?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why do you not answer yourself, Socrates?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why not, Socrates?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why should I?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why so?
1744PROTARCHUS: Why, how could any man who gave any other be deemed in his senses?
1744PROTARCHUS: Yes, certainly; for how can there be anything which has no cause?
1744PROTARCHUS: You are speaking of beauty, truth, and measure?
1744PROTARCHUS: You mean that he may live neither rejoicing nor sorrowing?
1744PROTARCHUS: You mean, what would happen if the body were not changed either for good or bad?
1744PROTARCHUS: You want to know whether that which is called essence is, properly speaking, for the sake of generation?
1744PROTARCHUS: You, Philebus, have handed over the argument to me, and have no longer a voice in the matter?
1744Perhaps you will allow me to ask you a question before you answer?
1744SOCRATES: A better and more unexceptionable way of speaking will be-- PROTARCHUS: What?
1744SOCRATES: A just and pious and good man is the friend of the gods; is he not?
1744SOCRATES: And a man must be pleased by something?
1744SOCRATES: And all men, as we were saying just now, are always filled with hopes?
1744SOCRATES: And am I to include music, which, as I was saying just now, is full of guesswork and imitation, and is wanting in purity?
1744SOCRATES: And an opinion must be of something?
1744SOCRATES: And are not mind and wisdom the names which are to be honoured most?
1744SOCRATES: And are they felt by us to be or become greater, when we are sick or when we are in health?
1744SOCRATES: And are you aware that even at a comedy the soul experiences a mixed feeling of pain and pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And can opinions be good or bad except in as far as they are true or false?
1744SOCRATES: And did we think that either of them alone would be sufficient?
1744SOCRATES: And do not opinion and the endeavour to form an opinion always spring from memory and perception?
1744SOCRATES: And do not people who are in a fever, or any similar illness, feel cold or thirst or other bodily affections more intensely?
1744SOCRATES: And do they think that they have pleasure when they are free from pain?
1744SOCRATES: And do we feel pain or pleasure in laughing at it?
1744SOCRATES: And do we not acknowledge this ignorance of theirs to be a misfortune?
1744SOCRATES: And do you, Protarchus, accept the position which is assigned to you?
1744SOCRATES: And from a like admixture of the finite and infinite come the seasons, and all the delights of life?
1744SOCRATES: And further, even if we admit the existence of qualities in other objects, may not pleasure and pain be simple and devoid of quality?
1744SOCRATES: And has he not the pleasure of memory when he is hoping to be filled, and yet in that he is empty is he not at the same time in pain?
1744SOCRATES: And has not the argument in what has preceded, already shown that the arts have different provinces, and vary in their degrees of certainty?
1744SOCRATES: And he who is pleased, whether he is rightly pleased or not, will always have a real feeling of pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And how, Protarchus, can there be true and false fears, or true and false expectations, or true and false opinions?
1744SOCRATES: And how, Protarchus, shall we answer the enquiry?
1744SOCRATES: And if badness attaches to any of them, Protarchus, then we should speak of a bad opinion or of a bad pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And if the thing opined be erroneous, might we not say that the opinion, being erroneous, is not right or rightly opined?
1744SOCRATES: And if we see a pleasure or pain which errs in respect of its object, shall we call that right or good, or by any honourable name?
1744SOCRATES: And ignorance, and what is termed clownishness, are surely an evil?
1744SOCRATES: And in these sorts of mixtures the pleasures and pains are sometimes equal, and sometimes one or other of them predominates?
1744SOCRATES: And is not destruction universally admitted to be the opposite of generation?
1744SOCRATES: And is not our fire small and weak and mean?
1744SOCRATES: And is not the agent the same as the cause in all except name; the agent and the cause may be rightly called one?
1744SOCRATES: And is not thirst desire?
1744SOCRATES: And is the good sufficient?
1744SOCRATES: And is there not and was there not a further point which was conceded between us?
1744SOCRATES: And may not all this be truly called an evil condition?
1744SOCRATES: And may not the same be said about fear and anger and the like; are they not often false?
1744SOCRATES: And may we not say that the good, being friends of the gods, have generally true pictures presented to them, and the bad false pictures?
1744SOCRATES: And may we not say with reason that we are now at the vestibule of the habitation of the good?
1744SOCRATES: And memory may, I think, be rightly described as the preservation of consciousness?
1744SOCRATES: And must we not attribute to pleasure and pain a similar real but illusory character?
1744SOCRATES: And now have I not sufficiently shown that Philebus''goddess is not to be regarded as identical with the good?
1744SOCRATES: And now we must begin to mix them?
1744SOCRATES: And now what is the next question, and how came we hither?
1744SOCRATES: And now what nature shall we ascribe to the third or compound kind?
1744SOCRATES: And of the names expressing cognition, ought not the fairest to be given to the fairest things?
1744SOCRATES: And ought we not to select some of these for examination, and see what makes them the greatest?
1744SOCRATES: And shall we not find them also full of the most wonderful pleasures?
1744SOCRATES: And such a thing as pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And surely pleasure often appears to accompany an opinion which is not true, but false?
1744SOCRATES: And that can not be the body, for the body is supposed to be emptied?
1744SOCRATES: And the class to which pleasure belongs has also been long ago discovered?
1744SOCRATES: And the creator or cause of them has been satisfactorily proven to be distinct from them,--and may therefore be called a fourth principle?
1744SOCRATES: And the finite or limit had not many divisions, and we readily acknowledged it to be by nature one?
1744SOCRATES: And the images answering to true opinions and words are true, and to false opinions and words false; are they not?
1744SOCRATES: And the obvious instances of the greatest pleasures, as we have often said, are the pleasures of the body?
1744SOCRATES: And the same may be said of the patient, or effect; we shall find that they too differ, as I was saying, only in name-- shall we not?
1744SOCRATES: And the soul may be truly said to be oblivious of the first but not of the second?
1744SOCRATES: And the union or communion of soul and body in one feeling and motion would be properly called consciousness?
1744SOCRATES: And the unjust and utterly bad man is the reverse?
1744SOCRATES: And there is a higher note and a lower note, and a note of equal pitch:--may we affirm so much?
1744SOCRATES: And these hopes, as they are termed, are propositions which exist in the minds of each of us?
1744SOCRATES: And these names may be said to have their truest and most exact application when the mind is engaged in the contemplation of true being?
1744SOCRATES: And these were the names which I adduced of the rivals of pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And this was the source of false opinion and opining; am I not right?
1744SOCRATES: And was not envy the source of this pleasure which we feel at the misfortunes of friends?
1744SOCRATES: And we have also agreed that the restoration of the natural state is pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: And we maintain that they are each of them one?
1744SOCRATES: And we see what is the place and nature of this life and to what class it is to be assigned?
1744SOCRATES: And what do you say, Philebus?
1744SOCRATES: And what if there be a third state, which is better than either?
1744SOCRATES: And what shall we say, Philebus, of your life which is all sweetness; and in which of the aforesaid classes is that to be placed?
1744SOCRATES: And what would you say of the intermediate state?
1744SOCRATES: And whether the opinion be right or wrong, makes no difference; it will still be an opinion?
1744SOCRATES: And why do you suppose me to have pointed out to you the admixture which takes place in comedy?
1744SOCRATES: And will you help us to test these two lives?
1744SOCRATES: And will you let me go?
1744SOCRATES: And wisdom and mind can not exist without soul?
1744SOCRATES: And yet he who desires, surely desires something?
1744SOCRATES: And yet the envious man finds something in the misfortunes of his neighbours at which he is pleased?
1744SOCRATES: And yet they are very different; what common nature have we in view when we call them by a single name?
1744SOCRATES: And yet you will acknowledge that they are different from one another, and sometimes opposed?
1744SOCRATES: And you remember also how at the sight of tragedies the spectators smile through their tears?
1744SOCRATES: And you say that pleasure, and I say that wisdom, is such a state?
1744SOCRATES: Are not we the cup- bearers?
1744SOCRATES: Are there not three ways in which ignorance of self may be shown?
1744SOCRATES: Are you going to ask, Philebus, what this has to do with the argument?
1744SOCRATES: Assuredly you have already arrived at the answer to the question which, as you say, you have been so long asking?
1744SOCRATES: But do we not distinguish memory from recollection?
1744SOCRATES: But do you see the consequence?
1744SOCRATES: But do you see the consequence?
1744SOCRATES: But had we not better have a preliminary word and refresh our memories?
1744SOCRATES: But how can we rightly judge of them?
1744SOCRATES: But is such a life eligible?
1744SOCRATES: But to feel joy instead of sorrow at the sight of our friends''misfortunes-- is not that wrong?
1744SOCRATES: But were you right?
1744SOCRATES: But what do you say of another question:--have we not heard that pleasure is always a generation, and has no true being?
1744SOCRATES: Capital; and now will you please to give me your best attention?
1744SOCRATES: Certainly, Protarchus; but are not these also distinguishable into two kinds?
1744SOCRATES: Did not the things which were generated, and the things out of which they were generated, furnish all the three classes?
1744SOCRATES: Did we not begin by enquiring into the comparative eligibility of pleasure and wisdom?
1744SOCRATES: Did we not place hunger, thirst, and the like, in the class of desires?
1744SOCRATES: Did we not say that ignorance was always an evil?
1744SOCRATES: Do not obvious and every- day phenomena furnish the simplest illustration?
1744SOCRATES: Do we mean anything when we say''a man thirsts''?
1744SOCRATES: Do you deny that some pleasures are false, and others true?
1744SOCRATES: Do you mean to say that I must make the division for you?
1744SOCRATES: Does not the right participation in the finite give health-- in disease, for instance?
1744SOCRATES: Good; and where shall we begin this great and multifarious battle, in which such various points are at issue?
1744SOCRATES: Have pleasure and pain a limit, or do they belong to the class which admits of more and less?
1744SOCRATES: Have we not found a road which leads towards the good?
1744SOCRATES: He asks himself--''What is that which appears to be standing by the rock under the tree?''
1744SOCRATES: He does not desire that which he experiences, for he experiences thirst, and thirst is emptiness; but he desires replenishment?
1744SOCRATES: Here then is one kind of pleasures and pains originating severally in the two processes which we have described?
1744SOCRATES: How can anything fixed be concerned with that which has no fixedness?
1744SOCRATES: How can there be purity in whiteness, and what purity?
1744SOCRATES: I have just mentioned envy; would you not call that a pain of the soul?
1744SOCRATES: In what way?
1744SOCRATES: Is not envy an unrighteous pleasure, and also an unrighteous pain?
1744SOCRATES: Is the good perfect or imperfect?
1744SOCRATES: Knowledge has two parts,--the one productive, and the other educational?
1744SOCRATES: Let them flow, then; and now, if there are any necessary pleasures, as there were arts and sciences necessary, must we not mingle them?
1744SOCRATES: Living thus, you would always throughout your life enjoy the greatest pleasures?
1744SOCRATES: May I not have led you into a misapprehension?
1744SOCRATES: May our body be said to have a soul?
1744SOCRATES: Might we imagine the process to be something of this nature?
1744SOCRATES: Now, can that which is neither be either gold or silver?
1744SOCRATES: Or suppose that the better life is more nearly allied to wisdom, then wisdom conquers, and pleasure is defeated;--do you agree?
1744SOCRATES: Reflect; would you not want wisdom and intelligence and forethought, and similar qualities?
1744SOCRATES: Right; but do you understand why I have discussed the subject?
1744SOCRATES: Shall I, Protarchus, have my own question asked of me by you?
1744SOCRATES: Shall the enquiry into these states of feeling be made the occasion of raising a question?
1744SOCRATES: Shall we further agree-- PROTARCHUS: To what?
1744SOCRATES: Shall we next consider measure, in like manner, and ask whether pleasure has more of this than wisdom, or wisdom than pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: Sound is one in music as well as in grammar?
1744SOCRATES: Tell me first;--should we be most likely to succeed if we mingled every sort of pleasure with every sort of wisdom?
1744SOCRATES: Tell us, O beloved-- shall we call you pleasures or by some other name?--would you rather live with or without wisdom?
1744SOCRATES: That is a return to the old position, Protarchus, and so we are to say( are we?)
1744SOCRATES: The agent or cause always naturally leads, and the patient or effect naturally follows it?
1744SOCRATES: The bad then commonly delight in false pleasures, and the good in true pleasures?
1744SOCRATES: Then he who is empty desires, as would appear, the opposite of what he experiences; for he is empty and desires to be full?
1744SOCRATES: Then he will live without pleasure; and who knows whether this may not be the most divine of all lives?
1744SOCRATES: Then here we have a third state, over and above that of pleasure and of pain?
1744SOCRATES: Then man and the other animals have at the same time both pleasure and pain?
1744SOCRATES: Then many other cases still remain?
1744SOCRATES: Then mind and science when employed about such changing things do not attain the highest truth?
1744SOCRATES: Then now we know the meaning of the word?
1744SOCRATES: Then pleasure, being a generation, must surely be for the sake of some essence?
1744SOCRATES: Then pleasure, being a generation, will be rightly placed in some other class than that of good?
1744SOCRATES: Then the cause and what is subordinate to it in generation are not the same, but different?
1744SOCRATES: Then the perfect and universally eligible and entirely good can not possibly be either of them?
1744SOCRATES: Then there must be something in the thirsty man which in some way apprehends replenishment?
1744SOCRATES: Then this is your judgment; and this is the answer which, upon your authority, we will give to all masters of the art of misinterpretation?
1744SOCRATES: Then we were not right in saying, just now, that motions going up and down cause pleasures and pains?
1744SOCRATES: Then, how can opinion be both true and false, and pleasure true only, although pleasure and opinion are both equally real?
1744SOCRATES: There is greater hope of finding that which we are seeking in the life which is well mixed than in that which is not?
1744SOCRATES: There is nothing envious or wrong in rejoicing at the misfortunes of enemies?
1744SOCRATES: True, Protarchus; and so the purest white, and not the greatest or largest in quantity, is to be deemed truest and most beautiful?
1744SOCRATES: Very right; and would you say that generation is for the sake of essence, or essence for the sake of generation?
1744SOCRATES: We agree-- do we not?--that there is such a thing as false, and also such a thing as true opinion?
1744SOCRATES: We may assume then that there are three lives, one pleasant, one painful, and the third which is neither; what say you?
1744SOCRATES: We mean to say that he''is empty''?
1744SOCRATES: We said, if you remember, that the mixed life of pleasure and wisdom was the conqueror-- did we not?
1744SOCRATES: Well, but are not those pleasures the greatest of which mankind have the greatest desires?
1744SOCRATES: Well, but had we not better leave her now, and not pain her by applying the crucial test, and finally detecting her?
1744SOCRATES: Well, but if a man who is full of knowledge loses his knowledge, are there not pains of forgetting?
1744SOCRATES: Well, tell me, is this question worth asking?
1744SOCRATES: Well, then, my view is-- PROTARCHUS: What is it?
1744SOCRATES: Well, then, shall I let them all flow into what Homer poetically terms''a meeting of the waters''?
1744SOCRATES: Were we not saying that God revealed a finite element of existence, and also an infinite?
1744SOCRATES: Were we not speaking just now of hotter and colder?
1744SOCRATES: What do you mean, Protarchus, by the two pains?
1744SOCRATES: What do you mean?
1744SOCRATES: What do you mean?
1744SOCRATES: What would you say, Protarchus, to both of these in one, or to one that was made out of the union of the two?
1744SOCRATES: What, then, is there in the mixture which is most precious, and which is the principal cause why such a state is universally beloved by all?
1744SOCRATES: When you speak of purity and clearness, or of excess, abundance, greatness and sufficiency, in what relation do these terms stand to truth?
1744SOCRATES: Whereas eating is a replenishment and a pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: Whether we experience the feeling of which I am speaking only in relation to the present and the past, or in relation to the future also?
1744SOCRATES: Whether we ought to say that the pleasures and pains of which we are speaking are true or false?
1744SOCRATES: Why, Protarchus, admitting that there is no such interval, I may ask what would be the necessary consequence if there were?
1744SOCRATES: Why, do we not speak of anger, fear, desire, sorrow, love, emulation, envy, and the like, as pains which belong to the soul only?
1744SOCRATES: Why?
1744SOCRATES: Would you choose, Protarchus, to live all your life long in the enjoyment of the greatest pleasures?
1744SOCRATES: Would you consider that there was still anything wanting to you if you had perfect pleasure?
1744SOCRATES: Would you say of drink, or of replenishment with drink?
1744SOCRATES: Would you say that he was wholly pained or wholly pleased?
1744SOCRATES: You mean the pleasures which are mingled with pain?
1744SOCRATES: You mean to say that you would like to desert, if you were not ashamed?
1744SOCRATES: You will observe that I have spoken of three classes?
1744Secondly, why is there no mention of the supreme mind?
1744Shall I tell you how I mean to escape from them?
1744Shall we begin thus?
1744Shall we enquire into the truth of your opinion?
1744Shall you and I sum up the two sides?
1744Still the question recurs,''In what does the whole differ from all the parts?''
1744The pleasure of yourself, or of your neighbour,--of the individual, or of the world?''
1744The question Will such and such an action promote the happiness of myself, my family, my country, the world?
1744Then both of us are vanquished-- are we not?
1744To these ancient speculations the moderns have added a further question:--''Whose pleasure?
1744To what then is to be attributed this opinion which has been often entertained about the uncertainty of morals?
1744We understand what you mean; but is there no charm by which we may dispel all this confusion, no more excellent way of arriving at the truth?
1744Were we not enquiring whether the second place belonged to pleasure or wisdom?
1744What are they?
1744What common property in all of them does he mean to indicate by the term''good''?
1744What is the origin of pleasure?
1744What more does he want?
1744When we saw those elements of which we have been speaking gathered up in one, did we not call them a body?
1744When you speak of hotter and colder, can you conceive any limit in those qualities?
1744Whence comes the necessity of them?
1744Which has the greater share of truth?
1744Which of beauty?
1744Which of symmetry?
1744Who would prefer such an alternation to the equable life of pure thought?
1744Why are some actions rather than others which equally tend to the happiness of mankind imposed upon us with the authority of law?
1744Why do I say so at this moment?
1744Why should we endeavour to bind all men within the limits of a single metaphysical conception?
1744Would the world have been better if there had been no Stoics or Kantists, no Platonists or Cartesians?
1744Yet about these too we must ask What will of God?
1744a good?
1744and are some bad, some good, and some neither bad nor good?''
1744and of comedy also?
1744because I said that we had better not pain pleasure, which is an impossibility?
1744how revealed to us, and by what proofs?
1744is analogous to the question asked in the Philebus,''What rank does pleasure hold in the scale of goods?''
1744need I remind you of the anger''Which stirs even a wise man to violence, And is sweeter than honey and the honeycomb?''
1744or some true and some false?
1744the only good?''
1744which includes the lower and the higher kind of happiness, and is the aim of the noblest, as well as of the meanest of mankind?''
1744would you not at any rate want sight?
1687''And can they hear the dialogue?''
1687''And do you suppose the individual to partake of the whole, or of the part?''
1687''And of human beings like ourselves, of water, fire, and the like?''
1687''And what kind of discipline would you recommend?''
1687''And who will answer me?
1687''And would you like to say that the ideas are really divisible and yet remain one?''
1687''And would you make abstract ideas of the just, the beautiful, the good?''
1687''And would you say that each man is covered by the whole sail, or by a part only?''
1687''But how can individuals participate in ideas, except in the ways which I have mentioned?''
1687''But must not the thought be of something which is the same in all and is the idea?
1687''How do you mean?''
1687''I quite believe you,''said Socrates;''but will you answer me a question?
1687''If God is, what follows?
1687''In the same sort of way,''said Parmenides,''as a sail, which is one, may be a cover to many-- that is your meaning?''
1687''Then how do you know that there are things in themselves?''
1687''Then the beautiful and the good in their own nature are unknown to us?''
1687''Then the ideas have parts, and the objects partake of a part of them only?''
1687''Then will you, Zeno?''
1687''Welcome, Cephalus: can we do anything for you in Athens?''
1687''What difficulty?''
1687''What is that?''
1687''Why not of the whole?''
1687''Yet if these difficulties induce you to give up universal ideas, what becomes of the mind?
1687Again, how far can one touch itself and the others?
1687Again, is the not- one part of the one; or rather, would it not in that case partake of the one?
1687Again, let us conceive of a one which by an effort of abstraction we separate from being: will this abstract one be one or many?
1687Again, of the parts of the one, if it is-- I mean being and one-- does either fail to imply the other?
1687Again, the like is opposed to the unlike?
1687Am I not right?
1687And a multitude implies a number larger than one?
1687And all the parts are contained by the whole?
1687And all these others we shall affirm to be parts of the whole and of the one, which, as soon as the end is reached, has become whole and one?
1687And also in other things?
1687And also of one?
1687And are not things of a different kind also other in kind?
1687And are not things other in kind unlike?
1687And as it becomes one and many, must it not inevitably experience separation and aggregation?
1687And because having limits, also having extremes?
1687And being of equal parts with itself, it will be numerically equal to itself; and being of more parts, more, and being of less, less than itself?
1687And being one and many and in process of becoming and being destroyed, when it becomes one it ceases to be many, and when many, it ceases to be one?
1687And can that which has no participation in being, either assume or lose being?
1687And can there be individual thoughts which are thoughts of nothing?
1687And can you think of anything else which is between them other than equality?
1687And change is motion-- we may say that?
1687And could we hear it?
1687And did we not mean by becoming, and being destroyed, the assumption of being and the loss of being?
1687And do not''will be,''''will become,''''will have become,''signify a participation of future time?
1687And do we not say that the others being other than the one are not one and have no part in the one?
1687And do you remember that the older becomes older than that which becomes younger?
1687And does this strange thing in which it is at the time of changing really exist?
1687And each kind of absolute knowledge will answer to each kind of absolute being?
1687And greatness and smallness always stand apart?
1687And has not- being also, if it is not?
1687And have we not already shown that it can not be in anything?
1687And if I speak of being and the other, or of the one and the other,--in any such case do I not speak of both?
1687And if all number participates in being, every part of number will also participate?
1687And if any one of them is wanting to anything, will that any longer be a whole?
1687And if each of them is one, then by the addition of any one to any pair, the whole becomes three?
1687And if neither more nor less, then in a like degree?
1687And if the world partakes in the ideas, and the ideas are thoughts, must not all things think?
1687And if there are not two, there is no contact?
1687And if there are two there must also be twice, and if there are three there must be thrice; that is, if twice one makes two, and thrice one three?
1687And if there be such a thing as participation in absolute knowledge, no one is more likely than God to have this most exact knowledge?
1687And if they are unlike the one, that which they are unlike will clearly be unlike them?
1687And if this is so, does any number remain which has no necessity to be?
1687And if to the two a third be added in due order, the number of terms will be three, and the contacts two?
1687And in either case, the one would be many, and not one?
1687And in such particles the others will be other than one another, if others are, and the one is not?
1687And in that it was other it was shown to be like?
1687And in this way, the one, if it has being, has turned out to be many?
1687And inequality implies greatness and smallness?
1687And is each of these parts-- one and being-- to be simply called a part, or must the word''part''be relative to the word''whole''?
1687And is it or does it become a longer time than itself or an equal time with itself?
1687And is not time always moving forward?
1687And is not''other''a name given to a thing?
1687And is the one a part of itself?
1687And it is older( is it not?)
1687And it will also be like and unlike itself and the others?
1687And it would seem that number can be predicated of them if each of them appears to be one, though it is really many?
1687And may not all things partake of both opposites, and be both like and unlike, by reason of this participation?--Where is the wonder?
1687And must not that which is correctly called both, be also two?
1687And not having the same measures, the one can not be equal either with itself or with another?
1687And of two things how can either by any possibility not be one?
1687And parts, as we affirm, have relation to a whole?
1687And sameness has been shown to be of a nature distinct from oneness?
1687And shall we say that the lesser or the greater is the first to come or to have come into existence?
1687And since we affirm that we speak truly, we must also affirm that we say what is?
1687And since we have at this moment opinion and knowledge and perception of the one, there is opinion and knowledge and perception of it?
1687And so all being, whatever we think of, must be broken up into fractions, for a particle will have to be conceived of without unity?
1687And so the one, if it is, must be infinite in multiplicity?
1687And so the other things will be younger than the one, and the one older than other things?
1687And so when he says''If one is not''he clearly means, that what''is not''is other than all others; we know what he means-- do we not?
1687And surely there can not be a time in which a thing can be at once neither in motion nor at rest?
1687And that is the one?
1687And that which contains, is a limit?
1687And that which has parts will be as many as the parts are?
1687And that which is ever in the same, must be ever at rest?
1687And that which is of the same age, is neither older nor younger?
1687And that which is older is older than that which is younger?
1687And that which is older, must always be older than something which is younger?
1687And the absolute natures or kinds are known severally by the absolute idea of knowledge?
1687And the assuming of being is what you would call becoming?
1687And the one has been proved both to be and not to be?
1687And the one is all its parts, and neither more nor less than all?
1687And the one is other than the others in the same degree that the others are other than it, and neither more nor less?
1687And the one is the whole?
1687And the one was also shown to be the same with the others?
1687And the other to the same?
1687And the relinquishing of being you would call destruction?
1687And the straight is that of which the centre intercepts the view of the extremes?
1687And there is and was and will be something which is in relation to it and belongs to it?
1687And there will seem to be odd and even among them, which will also have no reality, if one is not?
1687And therefore is and is not in the same state?
1687And therefore neither smallness, nor greatness, nor equality, can be attributed to it?
1687And therefore not other than itself?
1687And therefore other things can neither be like or unlike, the same, or different in relation to it?
1687And they are unequal to an unequal?
1687And things that are not equal are unequal?
1687And three are odd, and two are even?
1687And thus the one can neither be the same, nor other, either in relation to itself or other?
1687And to be the same with the others is the opposite of being other than the others?
1687And we have not got the idea of knowledge?
1687And we said that it could not be in itself, and could not be in other?
1687And we surely can not say that what is truly one has parts?
1687And what are its relations to other things?
1687And what are the relations of the one to the others?
1687And what is a whole?
1687And what is the nature of this exercise, Parmenides, which you would recommend?
1687And what of that?
1687And what shall be our first hypothesis, if I am to attempt this laborious pastime?
1687And when being in motion it rests, and when being at rest it changes to motion, it can surely be in no time at all?
1687And when it becomes greater or less or equal it must grow or diminish or be equalized?
1687And when two things are alike, must they not partake of the same idea?
1687And when we put them together shortly, and say''One is,''that is equivalent to saying,''partakes of being''?
1687And when we say that a thing is not, do we mean that it is not in one way but is in another?
1687And when you say it once, you mention that of which it is the name?
1687And whenever it becomes like and unlike it must be assimilated and dissimilated?
1687And who will answer me?
1687And will not all things that are not one, be other than the one, and the one other than the not- one?
1687And will not knowledge-- I mean absolute knowledge-- answer to absolute truth?
1687And will not that of which the two partake, and which makes them alike, be the idea itself?
1687And will not the something which is apprehended as one and the same in all, be an idea?
1687And will not the things which participate in the one, be other than it?
1687And will there not be many particles, each appearing to be one, but not being one, if one is not?
1687And would you make an idea of man apart from us and from all other human creatures, or of fire and water?
1687And would you say that the whole sail includes each man, or a part of it only, and different parts different men?
1687And yet, surely, the one was shown to have parts; and if parts, then a beginning, middle and end?
1687And you may say the name once or oftener?
1687And''is,''or''becomes,''signifies a participation of present time?
1687And, further, if not moved in any way, it will not be altered in any way?
1687And, indeed, the very supposition of this is absurd, for how can that which is, be devoid of being?
1687Because every part is part of a whole; is it not?
1687But are there any modes of partaking of being other than these?
1687But as I must attempt this laborious game, what shall be the subject?
1687But as to its becoming older and younger than the others, and the others than the one, and neither older nor younger, what shall we say?
1687But can all this be true about the one?
1687But can all this be true?
1687But can anything which is in a certain state not be in that state without changing?
1687But can it partake of being when not partaking of being, or not partake of being when partaking of being?
1687But can one be in many places and yet be a whole?
1687But can smallness be equal to anything or greater than anything, and have the functions of greatness and equality and not its own functions?
1687But does one partake of time?
1687But for that which partakes of nothing to partake of two things was held by us to be impossible?
1687But having no parts, it will be neither straight nor round?
1687But how can not- being, which is nowhere, move or change, either from one place to another or in the same place?
1687But how can that which does not partake of sameness, have either the same measures or have anything else the same?
1687But if anything is other than anything, will it not be other than other?
1687But if it be not altered it can not be moved?
1687But if it becomes or is for an equal time with itself, it is of the same age with itself?
1687But if it is at all and so long as it is, it must be one, and can not be none?
1687But if one is, and both odd and even numbers are implied in one, must not every number exist?
1687But if one is, what happens to the others, which in the first place are not one, yet may partake of one in a certain way?
1687But if one is, what will happen to the others-- is not that also to be considered?
1687But if the one moved in place, must it not either move round and round in the same place, or from one place to another?
1687But if the one neither suffers alteration, nor turns round in the same place, nor changes place, can it still be capable of motion?
1687But if the whole is neither in one, nor in more than one, nor in all of the parts, it must be in something else, or cease to be anywhere at all?
1687But if there be only one, and not two, there will be no contact?
1687But if they are not other, either by reason of themselves or of the other, will they not altogether escape being other than one another?
1687But is the contradiction also the final conclusion?
1687But is the one other than one?
1687But may not the ideas, asked Socrates, be thoughts only, and have no proper existence except in our minds, Parmenides?
1687But neither can the one be in anything, as we affirm?
1687But perhaps the motion of the one consists in change of place?
1687But reflect:--Can one, in its entirety, be in many places at the same time?
1687But since it is not equal to the others, neither can the others be equal to it?
1687But since the one partakes of time, and partakes of becoming older and younger, must it not also partake of the past, the present, and the future?
1687But surely if it is nowhere among what is, as is the fact, since it is not, it can not change from one place to another?
1687But that which is never in the same place is never quiet or at rest?
1687But that which is not admits of no attribute or relation?
1687But the ideas themselves, as you admit, we have not, and can not have?
1687But the one did not partake of those affections?
1687But the one, as appears, never being affected otherwise, is never unlike itself or other?
1687But then, again, a beginning and an end are the limits of everything?
1687But then, that which contains must be other than that which is contained?
1687But then, will God, having absolute knowledge, have a knowledge of human things?
1687But to speak of the others implies difference-- the terms''other''and''different''are synonymous?
1687But we said that things which are neither parts nor wholes of one another, nor other than one another, will be the same with one another:--so we said?
1687But what do you say to a new point of view?
1687But when do all these changes take place?
1687But why do you ask?''
1687But why?
1687But, again, assume the opposite hypothesis, that the one is not, and what is the consequence?
1687But, again, the middle will be equidistant from the extremes; or it would not be in the middle?
1687But, consider:--Are not the absolute same, and the absolute other, opposites to one another?
1687But, surely, it ought to be one and not many?
1687But, surely, that which is must always be somewhere?
1687But, then, what is to become of philosophy?
1687Can the one have come into being contrary to its own nature, or is that impossible?
1687Can there be any other mode of participation?
1687Do not the words''is not''signify absence of being in that to which we apply them?
1687Do they participate in the ideas, or do they merely resemble them?
1687Do you see my meaning?
1687Do you see then, Socrates, how great is the difficulty of affirming the ideas to be absolute?
1687Does not this hypothesis necessarily imply that one is of such a nature as to have parts?
1687Does the one also partake of time?
1687For all which reasons the one touches and does not touch itself and the others?
1687For can anything be a whole without these three?
1687Further, inasmuch as the parts are parts of a whole, the one, as a whole, will be limited; for are not the parts contained by the whole?
1687Further, it must surely in a sort partake of being?
1687Further-- is the one equal and unequal to itself and others?
1687Here is the great though unconscious truth( shall we say?)
1687How can he have ever persisted in them after seeing the fatal objections which might be urged against them?
1687How can he have placed himself so completely without them?
1687How can it?
1687How can there be?
1687How can they be?
1687How can we conceive Him under the forms of time and space, who is out of time and space?
1687How can we imagine His relation to the world or to ourselves?
1687How could they investigate causes, when they had not as yet learned to distinguish between a cause and an end?
1687How could they make any progress in the sciences without first arranging them?
1687How could they?
1687How do you mean?
1687How do you mean?
1687How do you mean?
1687How do you mean?
1687How get rid of such forms and see Him as He is?
1687How is that?
1687How is that?
1687How is that?
1687How is that?
1687How not?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How so?
1687How then can one, being of this nature, be either older or younger than anything, or have the same age with it?
1687How then, without a word of explanation, could Plato assign to them the refutation of their own tenets?
1687How, while mankind were disputing about universals, could they classify phenomena?
1687How?
1687How?
1687I may take as an illustration the case of names: You give a name to a thing?
1687If God is not, what follows?''
1687If it be co- extensive with the one it will be co- equal with the one, or if containing the one it will be greater than the one?
1687If one is not, we ask what will happen in respect of one?
1687If one is, being must be predicated of it?
1687If one is, he said, the one can not be many?
1687If then it be neither other, nor a whole, nor a part in relation to itself, must it not be the same with itself?
1687If there are three and twice, there is twice three; and if there are two and thrice, there is thrice two?
1687If, then, smallness is present in the one it will be present either in the whole or in a part of the whole?
1687In all that you say have you any other purpose except to disprove the being of the many?
1687In the first place, the others will not be one?
1687In this way-- you may speak of being?
1687In what way?
1687In what way?
1687In what way?
1687Is it or does it become older or younger than they?
1687Is it or does it become older or younger than they?
1687Is not that true?
1687Is that your meaning, or have I misunderstood you?
1687Is there a difference only, or rather are not the two expressions-- if the one is not, and if the not one is not, entirely opposed?
1687Is there any of these which is a part of being, and yet no part?
1687Is this true of becoming as well as being?
1687It can not therefore experience the sort of motion which is change of nature?
1687It is otherwise with the objection which follows: How are we to bridge the chasm between human truth and absolute truth, between gods and men?
1687Just as in a picture things appear to be all one to a person standing at a distance, and to be in the same state and alike?
1687Let us see:--Must not the being of one be other than one?
1687May we say, in Platonic language, that we still seem to see vestiges of a track which has not yet been taken?
1687Must it not be of a single something, which the thought recognizes as attaching to all, being a single form or nature?
1687Must not the one be distinct from the others, and the others from the one?
1687Nor as like or unlike?
1687Nor can it turn on the same spot, for it nowhere touches the same, for the same is, and that which is not can not be reckoned among things that are?
1687Nor can knowledge, or opinion, or perception, or expression, or name, or any other thing that is, have any concern with it?
1687Nor can we say that it stands, if it is nowhere; for that which stands must always be in one and the same spot?
1687Nor is there any existing thing which can be attributed to it; for if there had been, it would partake of being?
1687Nor yet likeness nor difference, either in relation to itself or to others?
1687Now that which is unmoved must surely be at rest, and that which is at rest must stand still?
1687Now there can not possibly be anything which is not included in the one and the others?
1687Of something which is or which is not?
1687Once more, Is one equal and unequal to itself and the others?
1687Once more, can one be older or younger than itself or other?
1687Once more, if one is not, what becomes of the others?
1687Once more, let us ask the question, If one is not, what happens in regard to one?
1687Once more, let us inquire, If the one is not, and the others of the one are, what follows?
1687One then, as would seem, is neither at rest nor in motion?
1687One, then, alone is one, and two do not exist?
1687Or can thought be without thought?''
1687Other means other than other, and different, different from the different?
1687Parmenides proceeded: And would you also make absolute ideas of the just and the beautiful and the good, and of all that class?
1687Secondly, the others differ from it, or it could not be described as different from the others?
1687Shall I begin with myself, and take my own hypothesis the one?
1687Shall I propose the youngest?
1687Shall I propose the youngest?
1687Shall we say as of being so also of becoming, or otherwise?
1687Since it is not a part in relation to itself it can not be related to itself as whole to part?
1687Since then what is partakes of not- being, and what is not of being, must not the one also partake of being in order not to be?
1687So that the other is not the same-- either with the one or with being?
1687Suppose the first; it will be either co- equal and co- extensive with the whole one, or will contain the one?
1687The expression''is not''implies negation of being:--do we mean by this to say that a thing, which is not, in a certain sense is?
1687The one itself, then, having been broken up into parts by being, is many and infinite?
1687The one then, being of this nature, is of necessity both at rest and in motion?
1687The one then, since it in no way is, can not have or lose or assume being in any way?
1687The one was shown to be in itself which was a whole?
1687The one, then, becoming and being the same time with itself, neither is nor becomes older or younger than itself?
1687The one, then, will be equal to and greater and less than itself and the others?
1687The theory, then, that other things participate in the ideas by resemblance, has to be given up, and some other mode of participation devised?
1687The thought must be of something?
1687Then I will begin again, and ask: If one is not, what are the consequences?
1687Then being is distributed over the whole multitude of things, and nothing that is, however small or however great, is devoid of it?
1687Then can the motion of the one be in place?
1687Then do you think that the whole idea is one, and yet, being one, is in each one of the many?
1687Then each individual partakes either of the whole of the idea or else of a part of the idea?
1687Then everything which is and is not in a certain state, implies change?
1687Then if one is not, the others neither are, nor can be conceived to be either one or many?
1687Then if one is, number must also be?
1687Then if the one is neither greater nor less than the others, it can not either exceed or be exceeded by them?
1687Then in respect of any kind of motion the one is immoveable?
1687Then in what way, Socrates, will all things participate in the ideas, if they are unable to participate in them either as parts or wholes?
1687Then it can not be like another, or like itself?
1687Then it can not move by changing place?
1687Then it does not partake of time, and is not in any time?
1687Then it has the greatest number of parts?
1687Then it is never in the same?
1687Then it is not altered at all; for if it were it would become and be destroyed?
1687Then it will not be the same with other, or other than itself?
1687Then its coming into being in anything is still more impossible; is it not?
1687Then let us begin again, and ask, If one is, what must be the affections of the others?
1687Then may we not sum up the argument in a word and say truly: If one is not, then nothing is?
1687Then neither does the one touch the others, nor the others the one, if there is no contact?
1687Then none of the ideas are known to us, because we have no share in absolute knowledge?
1687Then not by virtue of being one will it be other?
1687Then not only the one which has being is many, but the one itself distributed by being, must also be many?
1687Then now we have spoken of either of them?
1687Then one can not be anywhere, either in itself or in another?
1687Then one can not be older or younger, or of the same age, either with itself or with another?
1687Then one is never in the same place?
1687Then shall we say that the one, being in this relation to the not- one, is the same with it?
1687Then since the one becomes older than itself, it becomes younger at the same time?
1687Then smallness can not be in the whole of one, but, if at all, in a part only?
1687Then that which becomes older than itself must also, at the same time, become younger than itself?
1687Then that which has greatness and smallness also has equality, which lies between them?
1687Then that which is one is both a whole and has a part?
1687Then the inference is that it would touch both?
1687Then the least is the first?
1687Then the nature of the beautiful in itself, and of the good in itself, and all other ideas which we suppose to exist absolutely, are unknown to us?
1687Then the one always both is and becomes older and younger than itself?
1687Then the one and the others are never in the same?
1687Then the one attaches to every single part of being, and does not fail in any part, whether great or small, or whatever may be the size of it?
1687Then the one being always itself in itself and other, must always be both at rest and in motion?
1687Then the one can never be so affected as to be the same either with another or with itself?
1687Then the one can not have parts, and can not be a whole?
1687Then the one can not possibly partake of being?
1687Then the one can not touch itself any more than it can be two?
1687Then the one has been shown to be at once in itself and in another?
1687Then the one if it has being is one and many, whole and parts, having limits and yet unlimited in number?
1687Then the one is always becoming older than itself, since it moves forward in time?
1687Then the one is not at all?
1687Then the one is younger than itself, when in becoming older it reaches the present?
1687Then the one must have likeness to itself?
1687Then the one partakes of inequality, and in respect of this the others are unequal to it?
1687Then the one that is not has no condition of any kind?
1687Then the one that is not is altered and is not altered?
1687Then the one that is not, since it in no way partakes of being, neither perishes nor becomes?
1687Then the one that is not, stands still, and is also in motion?
1687Then the one was and is and will be, and was becoming and is becoming and will become?
1687Then the one will be equal both to itself and the others?
1687Then the one will be other than the others?
1687Then the one will have unlikeness in respect of which the others are unlike it?
1687Then the one will never be either like or unlike itself or other?
1687Then the one will not be in the others as a whole, nor as part, if it be separated from the others, and has no parts?
1687Then the one will partake of figure, either rectilinear or round, or a union of the two?
1687Then the one would have parts and would be many, if it partook either of a straight or of a circular form?
1687Then the one, being moved, is altered?
1687Then the one, being of this nature, can not be in time at all; for must not that which is in time, be always growing older than itself?
1687Then the one, having neither beginning nor end, is unlimited?
1687Then the one, if it is not, can not turn in that in which it is not?
1687Then the one, if it is not, clearly has being?
1687Then the one, if it is to touch itself, ought to be situated next to itself, and occupy the place next to that in which itself is?
1687Then the one, if of such a nature, has greatness and smallness?
1687Then the one, since it partakes of being, partakes of time?
1687Then the one, which is not, partakes, as would appear, of greatness and smallness and equality?
1687Then the other will never be either in the not- one, or in the one?
1687Then the others are both like and unlike themselves and one another?
1687Then the others are neither one nor two, nor are they called by the name of any number?
1687Then the others neither are nor contain two or three, if entirely deprived of the one?
1687Then there is always something between them?
1687Then there is no name, nor expression, nor perception, nor opinion, nor knowledge of it?
1687Then there is no way in which the others are one, or have in themselves any unity?
1687Then there is no way in which the others can partake of the one, if they do not partake either in whole or in part?
1687Then they are separated from each other?
1687Then they have no number, if they have no one in them?
1687Then we can not suppose that there is anything different from them in which both the one and the others might exist?
1687Then we must say that the one which is not never stands still and never moves?
1687Then we will begin at the beginning:--If one is, can one be, and not partake of being?
1687Then will the same ever be in the other, or the other in the same?
1687Then will they not appear to be like and unlike?
1687Then will you, Zeno?
1687Then would you like to say, Socrates, that the one idea is really divisible and yet remains one?
1687Then, if the individuals of the pair are together two, they must be severally one?
1687Then, if the one is to remain one, it will not be a whole, and will not have parts?
1687Then, if there are to be others, there is something than which they will be other?
1687Then, in either case, the one would be made up of parts; both as being a whole, and also as having parts?
1687Then, in so far as the one that is not is moved, it is altered, but in so far as it is not moved, it is not altered?
1687Then, that which is not can not be, or in any way participate in being?
1687There are two, and twice, and therefore there must be twice two; and there are three, and there is thrice, and therefore there must be thrice three?
1687There is a natural realism which says,''Can there be a word devoid of meaning, or an idea which is an idea of nothing?''
1687There is an ethical universal or idea, but is there also a universal of physics?--of the meanest things in the world as well as of the greatest?
1687They do so then as multitudes in which the one is not present?
1687Thus the one that is not has been shown to have motion also, because it changes from being to not- being?
1687Thus, then, as appears, the one will be other than itself?
1687Thus, then, the one becomes older as well as younger than itself?
1687Two things, then, at the least are necessary to make contact possible?
1687We mean to say, that being has not the same significance as one?
1687We say that the one partakes of being and therefore it is?
1687We say that we have to work out together all the consequences, whatever they may be, which follow, if the one is?
1687Welcome, Cephalus, said Adeimantus, taking me by the hand; is there anything which we can do for you in Athens?
1687Well, and do we suppose that one can be older, or younger than anything, or of the same age with it?
1687Well, and if nothing should be attributed to it, can other things be attributed to it?
1687Well, and must not a beginning or any other part of the one or of anything, if it be a part and not parts, being a part, be also of necessity one?
1687Well, and ought we not to consider next what will be the consequence if the one is not?
1687Well, and when I speak of being and one, I speak of them both?
1687Well, but do not the expressions''was,''and''has become,''and''was becoming,''signify a participation of past time?
1687Well, said Parmenides, and what do you say of another question?
1687Well, then, if anything be other than anything, will it not be other than that which is other?
1687What difficulty?
1687What direction?
1687What do you mean, Parmenides?
1687What do you mean?
1687What do you mean?
1687What do you mean?
1687What is it?
1687What is the meaning of the hypothesis-- If the one is not; is there any difference between this and the hypothesis-- If the not one is not?
1687What may that be?
1687What of that?
1687What question?
1687What thing?
1687What would you say of another question?
1687What?
1687When does motion become rest, or rest motion?
1687When then does it change; for it can not change either when at rest, or when in motion, or when in time?
1687Whenever, then, you use the word''other,''whether once or oftener, you name that of which it is the name, and to no other do you give the name?
1687Where shall I begin?
1687Whither shall we turn, if the ideas are unknown?
1687Why not, Parmenides?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why not?
1687Why so?
1687Why, because the round is that of which all the extreme points are equidistant from the centre?
1687Yes, he said, and the name of our brother, Antiphon; but why do you ask?
1687Yet once more; if one is not, what becomes of the others?
1687You mean to say, that if I were to spread out a sail and cover a number of men, there would be one whole including many-- is not that your meaning?
1687and consider the consequences which follow on the supposition either of the being or of the not- being of one?
1687and is this your own distinction?''
1687and when more than once, is it something else which you mention?
1687and where are the reasoning and reflecting powers?
1687for the one is not being, but, considered as one, only partook of being?
1687for the same whole can not do and suffer both at once; and if so, one will be no longer one, but two?
1687is the one wanting to being, or being to the one?
1687or do we mean absolutely to deny being of it?
1687or do we mean, absolutely, that what is not has in no sort or way or kind participation of being?
1687or must it always be the same thing of which you speak, whether you utter the name once or more than once?
1687or of the same age with itself or other?
1687would not that of which no part is wanting be a whole?
3794Benefits, then, will be fewer, but more genuine: well, what harm is there in restricting people from giving recklessly?
3794But how can you call a man ungrateful for not returning that which you say is not a benefit?
3794But,say you,"if no occasion of repayment offers, am I always to remain in his debt?"
3794But,says our adversary,"suppose that we gain nothing by this; suppose that he pretends that he has forgotten it, what ought I to do?"
3794Could you, then, my general, recognize that man or that helmet?
3794Do you remember, general,said he,"that in Spain you dislocated your ankle near the river Sucro[ Footnote: Xucar]?"
3794Do you say,inquires my opponent,"that he who carries me gratis in a boat across the river Po, does not bestow any benefit upon me?"
3794Do you say,we may be asked,"that eagerness to repay kindness belongs to a morbid feeling of gratitude?"
3794Do you,asks our adversary,"call that by which he is displeased and hurt a benefit?"
3794From whom, then, ought we to receive them?
3794He has given me this,says he,"but how late, after how much toil?
3794How,asks our opponent,"can any one be ungrateful to a bad man, since a bad man can not bestow a benefit?"
3794How,do you ask,"can you make them your own?"
3794If any one does us good for his own sake, are we,you ask,"under an obligation to him?
3794If,they argue,"I can injure myself, why should I not be able also to bestow a benefit upon myself?
3794What return does one get for benefits?
3794What shall I gain,says my opponent,"if I do this bravely and gratefully?"
3794What then? 3794 What,"asks our opponent,"does that matter to you?
3794What,say you,"can a man repay a benefit, though he does nothing?"
3794What,say you,"ought he not to know from whom he received it?"
3794When?
3794Where,you ask,"or who is he?
3794Why not?
379427:"Quis est iste qui se profitetur omnibus legibus innocentem?"]
3794After so many instances, can we doubt that a master may sometimes receive a benefit from a slave?
3794All things that a son has belong to his father, yet who does not know that in spite of this a son can make presents to his father?
3794Am I not to explain my wants to one does not know them?
3794Am I not to point out a means of repayment to one who does not perceive it?
3794Am I to live with an infamous person?
3794Amidst all these restless passions, how can you hope to find a thing so full of rest as good faith?
3794And what will you say when, as is sometimes the case, you hate the father, and yet save his son?
3794Are our valuations to be restricted to pecuniary fines?
3794Are they not?
3794Are they ungrateful alone?
3794Are we, then, to say that this assistance of the brute was a benefit?
3794Aristides, who received a name for justice, is he unjust?
3794At what sum can you estimate the value of a lodging in a wilderness, of a shelter in the rain, of a bath or fire in cold weather?
3794Be sure that the comic poet speaks the most absolute truth in the verses:--"Know you not this?
3794Because he has changed, ought he to change you?
3794Besides this, why are those things not called benefits when I bestow them upon myself which would be called benefits if I bestowed them upon another?
3794But take whichever you please to be true; what will this knowledge profit us?
3794But what if the benefit turns out ill?
3794But wherefore is it superior to virtue?
3794But who would be affected by the spectacle of his punishment?
3794Call a man a slave?
3794Camillus a betrayer?"
3794Can any benefits be greater than those which children receive from their parents?
3794Can any one compare us with the animals over whom we rule?
3794Can any one feel ashamed of adultery, now that things have come to such a pass that no woman keeps a husband at all unless it be to pique her lover?
3794Can there be any doubt that all the private savings of a slave belong to his master as well as he himself?
3794Can we doubt that the climate of this abode of the human race is regulated by the motion of the sun and moon in their orbits?
3794Can we doubt that the converse of a benefit is an injury?
3794Can you apply the name of friend to one who is admitted in his regular order to pay his respects to you?
3794Can you be thought to have bestowed a benefit upon one whom you hated most bitterly while you were bestowing it?
3794Can you call anything a benefit, if you feel ashamed to mention the person who gave it you?
3794Can you desire me to do anything to express my gratitude to a man who did nothing in order to confer a benefit upon me?
3794Can you tell me of anyone who saved his master more gloriously?
3794Could Socrates not have made an adequate return to Archelaus, if he had taught him to reign?
3794Could he blame them more gently?
3794Did you admit a man who was so openly filthy to the fasces and the tribunal?
3794Do I not return to him such a benefit, as he is now able to receive?
3794Do you ask what service you can render to a prosperous man?
3794Do you imagine that the matter in dispute between them is merely one of precedence?
3794Do you imagine that those things which are loathed are not punished, or do you suppose that any punishment is greater than the hate of all men?
3794Do you not owe a benefit for the life of one whose safety you value above your own?
3794Do you not perceive that you are doing wrong, from the very fact that those to whom you are ungrateful fare better?
3794Do you not perceive when you say this that you merely speak of God under another name?
3794Do you not see how parents force children during their infancy to undergo what is useful for their health?
3794Do you not think that it required a much greater man to refuse this reward than to earn it?
3794Do you say,"I shall not be able to return them?"
3794Do you suppose that he wished to do me any honour?
3794Do you suppose that the crown was given to Arrhidaeus?
3794Do you suppose, though this be the only point in question, that it is a mere matter of precedence?
3794Do you think yourself grateful?
3794Do you wish to know how far from a benefit it was to give life under such conditions?
3794Do you wish to know how it differs from one?
3794Do you wish to know this to be so, and that it is not bribed by ideas of profit?
3794Do you wish to know what Socrates really meant?
3794Do you wish to know when their service is not a benefit?
3794Do you wish to return the benefit?
3794Does Decius fear death?
3794Duty, however, leaves one some choice; do you ask me, how I am to choose?
3794Fabius, who''by delays retrieved the day,''is he rash?
3794First of all I will prove that any chance would- be partner of mine has nothing in common with me: and why?
3794For what are these respectable men summoned?
3794For what does the order of the universe bring round the seasons?
3794Has he forgotten two kindnesses?
3794He gave it to me, of course, having both opportunity and means: is he a good man or a bad one?
3794Here, however, what occasion is there for subtlety?
3794How are so many thousands of insatiable men to be satiated?
3794How can any man feel gratitude for benefits, if he skips through his whole life entirely engrossed with the present and the future?
3794How can you tell whether I do not wish, or whether I do not know how to repay you: whether it be in intention or in opportunity that I am wanting?
3794How comes it to be such happiness to parents that they should confess themselves outdone by the benefits bestowed by their children?
3794How could a judge estimate the value of these things, when words, hesitation, or looks can destroy all their claim to gratitude?
3794How do you feel when any one is spoken of as being ungrateful for great benefits conferred upon him by a friend?
3794How does this contest become so desirable?
3794How far more proper are such prayers as these, which do not put you off to some distant opportunity, but express your gratitude at once?
3794How is a man to pay who owes his life, his position, his safety, or his reason to another?
3794How is this?
3794How long do you mean to lead me about?
3794How long will you go on saying,"I saved you, I snatched you from the jaws of death?"
3794How many are there who are unworthy of the light of day?
3794How many complain because they have been born?
3794How shall I be able to repay these favours?
3794How, in that case, would you decide which was the greater; the present which the man has received, or the injury which has been done him?
3794However unequally the blessings of after life may be dealt out to us, did nature give us too little when she gave us herself?
3794I answer, in the first place, what does their real value matter, since the buyer and seller have settled the price between them?
3794I did not expect this; I have been treated like one of the herd; did he really think that I only deserved so little?
3794I do not regret it, nor shall I do so; nor shall fortune, however unjust she may be, ever hear me say,''What did I want?
3794I do not wish to do so, yet what am I to do?
3794If I save the life of one, do I confer a benefit upon the other, who will be sorry that his hated brother did not perish?"
3794If any one gave you a few acres, you would say that you had received a benefit; can you deny that the boundless extent of the earth is a benefit?
3794If there were no rogues, what glory would there be in doing good to many?
3794If this is your way of returning a kindness, what would you do if you were exacting repayment of a debt?
3794If you were to return it to me against my will, you would be ungrateful, how much more ungrateful are you, if you force me to wish for it?
3794In dealing with such persons, what more can I do than wish to repay them?
3794In the next place, I ask whether this man of yours be ferocious merely in intent, or whether he breaks out into actual outrages upon mankind?
3794In this case, what ought he to have done?
3794In what indeed did that frantic youth, whose only merit was his lucky audacity, resemble Hercules?
3794In what virtue is there not?
3794Is Mucius a traitor?
3794Is a good man, then, not able to bestow a benefit, because he does what he ought to do, and is not able not to do what he ought to do?
3794Is a man ungrateful for one benefit?
3794Is it a debtor that you seek for?
3794Is it ambition?
3794Is it as though he had done something base, or had merely neglected to do something useful and likely to be profitable to himself?
3794Is it fear?
3794Is it profit?
3794Is it the master who receives a benefit from his slave?
3794Is it worth while to destroy all this merely in order to refute you?
3794Is not this the universal reproach of the human race?
3794Is the gift which is bestowed upon all alike, at their birth, not enough?
3794Is there any one who does not regard the returning of a kindness, and the bestowal of a benefit, as distinct acts?
3794It may be asked,"Why are you so careful in inquiring upon whom you bestow benefits, as though some day you meant to demand repayment of them?
3794It seems to offer more opportunity for debate to consider what a captive ought to do, if a man of abominable vices offers him the price of his ransom?
3794Marcus Cato said,"Borrow from yourself whatever you lack;"why, then, if I can lend myself anything, should I be unable to give myself anything?
3794More has been given to those most villainous men than has been given to me; well, what is that to the purpose?
3794Next, what punishment are we to appoint for the ungrateful?
3794No one is justified in seeking an excuse for ingratitude in his own weakness or poverty, or in saying,"What am I to do, and how?
3794Nor have I done any good to his son, for what advantage does he gain by my act?"
3794Now what greater change can take place than that I should discover you to be a bad and ungrateful man?
3794Now what is more honourable than gratitude?
3794Now, how great is this benefit?
3794Now, who will venture to raise the question whether it be honourable to be grateful?
3794Observing the man''s hesitation, he said,"Why do you delay, as though the whole business was in your power?
3794One equal to it; death?
3794One less than the benefit?
3794Ought we not to receive what Claudius gives?
3794Ought we to call this receiving presents, or rather taking one''s pick of the senate?
3794Plato, it is argued, was grateful to Socrates for having been taught by him; why should not Socrates be grateful to himself for having taught himself?
3794Pray tell me what return one gets for righteousness, innocence, magnanimity, chastity, temperance?
3794Pray tell me, what is it that urges us to do so?
3794Pray, do we bestow benefits upon animals when we feed them for our use or for our table?
3794Pray, what litigant, after having been successfully defended, retains any remembrance of so great a benefit for more than a few days?"
3794Reflect, then, upon this: you say,"My kindness has met with no return, what am I to do?
3794Shall I permit myself to be saved by a wretch?
3794So when you have said,"Have I not bestowed a benefit upon the father by saving the son?"
3794So, then, you would not save a man''s life in the dark?
3794Suppose I were given something by a cruel and easily offended tyrant, who would take it as an affront if his bounty were slighted?
3794Suppose that such men as these say,"I do not want it,""Let him keep it to himself,""Who asks him for it?"
3794Taken singly, what should we be?
3794Tell me, if the wise man possesses everything, how can one give anything to a wise man?
3794The judge does not sit merely to decide between debtor and creditor, when he says,"You did lend the man money; but then, what followed?
3794The more benefits a man bestows, the more beneficent he is, yet who ever was praised for having been of service to himself?
3794There are many who say,"I know that this will do him no good, but what am I to do?
3794There is no doubt that a slave can bestow a benefit upon anyone; why, then, not upon his master?
3794There was a rivalry between them, as to who should give it; and how should there not be?
3794This analogy is imperfect; and why?
3794Those persons, therefore, are mistaken, who ask the Stoics,"What do you say, then?
3794Tiberius Caesar, when some one addressed him with the words,"Do you remember....?"
3794To himself?
3794To what do we trust for safety, if not in mutual good offices one to another?
3794Wait patiently; why are you unwilling to let my bounty abide with you?
3794Was any man ever unwilling to do this, even though he were ungrateful?
3794Was it not a small thing which Socrates received?
3794We sometimes say,"What could Providence mean by placing an Arrhidaeus upon the throne?"
3794Well, but I pray you, do you not say,"you have preserved my son for me; had he perished, I could not have survived him?"
3794Well, what then?
3794What am I to imagine?
3794What am I to say of the third, he who, meaning to do an injury, blunders into bestowing a benefit?
3794What are you doing, Avarice?
3794What could be more inhuman than to cause benefits to result in cruelty?
3794What did he do deserving of praise, in not receiving stolen goods, in choosing not to receive them, instead of returning them?
3794What difference does it make to me whether I receive benefits or not?
3794What do I gather from this?
3794What follows, then?
3794What follows, then?
3794What grandeur is there in loving oneself, sparing oneself, gaining profit for oneself?
3794What if I do not know what sort of repayment you wish for?
3794What if, for example, my country orders me to give to her what I had promised to my friend?
3794What inconsistency is this?
3794What is more fortunate than that old man who declares everywhere to everyone that he has been conquered in benefits by his son?
3794What is more praiseworthy, upon what are all men more universally agreed, than to return gratitude for good offices?
3794What is that to the purpose?
3794What is the aim of the grateful man?
3794What is the meaning of this dance of sisters in a circle, hand in hand?
3794What is the use of abuse, or of complaints?
3794What is the use of laboriously untying knots which you yourself have tied, in order that you might untie them?
3794What is there to prevent your returning your benefactor''s kindness, even while he is in prosperity?
3794What is this but trampling upon the commonwealth, and that, too, with the left foot, though you may say that this point does not signify?
3794What joy would he have experienced, if, after the putting down of the civil war, he had seen his son ruling the state in peace and security?
3794What lately made Fabius Persicus a member of more than one college of priests, though even profligates avoided his kiss?
3794What made Cicero''s son a consul, except his father?
3794What madness is this, to call the gods in question for their bounty?
3794What man is there of so firm and trustworthy a mind that you can safely invest your benefits in him?
3794What need have you for disdainful airs, or swelling phrases?
3794What need is there for you to speak, and to take the place which belongs to another?
3794What now is the use of having meant well?''"
3794What of the bursting forth of warm waters upon the seashore itself?
3794What of the fountains of medicinal waters?
3794What ought I to do?
3794What profit can accrue to him from this latent feeling?
3794What punishment is to be assigned to ingratitude for these?
3794What should we say of a pilot who prayed to the gods for dreadful storms and tempests, in order that danger might make his skill more highly esteemed?
3794What then is it?
3794What then is our reason for owing them much?
3794What then, I answer, shall we punish the undutiful, the malicious, the avaricious, the headstrong, and the cruel?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What then?
3794What value has the crown in itself?
3794What virtue do we admire more than benevolence?
3794What will you do in such a case?
3794What would they have, if every man had his own?
3794What, again, is more blissful than to be overcome in such a contest?
3794What, then, is a benefit?
3794What, then, will you do?
3794What?
3794What?
3794What?
3794What?
3794When a man bestows a benefit, at what does he aim?
3794When can I repay my debt to my superiors the lords of heaven and earth?"
3794When safe, what recompense can I make to him?
3794When the mind begins through weariness to hate the promised benefit, or while it is wavering in expectation of it, how can it feel grateful for it?
3794When the question can be asked,"What if he had refused to do it?"
3794When will the day come upon which I can prove my gratitude to him?"
3794When?
3794Whence comes the breath which you draw?
3794Whence, then, comes all that you possess, that you give or refuse to give, that you hoard or steal?
3794Where, then, does a benefit begin to stop?
3794Wherefore then does he give?
3794Wherefore?
3794Whether the bestowal of benefits and the return of gratitude for them are desirable objects in themselves?
3794Which do we encourage more?
3794Which of the two do you call the worse-- he who is ungrateful for kindness, or he who does not even remember it?
3794Who can be grateful for what has been disdainfully flung to him, or angrily cast at him, or been given him out of weariness, to avoid further trouble?
3794Who can estimate the value of such services as these?
3794Who denies it?
3794Who does not leave the world with reluctance, and with lamentations?
3794Who does not thinks that to have bestowed one benefit is a reason for bestowing a second?
3794Who ever called a hunch of bread a benefit, or a farthing dole tossed to a beggar, or the means of lighting a fire?
3794Who has ever thought it enough to be asked for anything in an off- hand manner, or to be asked only once?
3794Who is there so poor, so uncared for, born to sorrow by so unkind a fate, as never to have felt the vast generosity of the Gods?
3794Who ought to applaud it more than we Stoics, who preach the brotherhood of the human race?
3794Who will compare these cases with one another, or weigh one against the other?
3794Who would call Aeneas pious, if he wished that his native city might be captured, in order that he might save his father from captivity?
3794Who would not be pleaded against?
3794Who would not plead under it?
3794Who, while he admires them, thinks of their being of use to him?
3794Whom would you admire more than he who governs himself and has himself under command?
3794Whose attention is not arrested by the universe itself, when by night it pours forth its fires and glitters with innumerable stars?
3794Why are you in such haste to lose both your benefit and your friend?
3794Why are you sparing of your property, as though it were your own?
3794Why do we separate this which naturally is connected?
3794Why do you call upon the gods to ruin me?
3794Why do you chafe at being laid under an obligation?
3794Why do you despair, before making a trial of me?
3794Why do you offer to me what is the bane of all nations?
3794Why do you say this, if you do not receive a benefit?
3794Why do you wish me to get into trouble?
3794Why need I hesitate to make such men as these better to themselves and to me?
3794Why need the person of the giver detract from the thing which he gives?
3794Why not rather wish that he to whom you owe most may be powerful and happy?
3794Why should benefits not be included among those acts which require two persons to perform them?
3794Why should he( if a bad man) have the excuse, or( if a good man) have the sorrow of not knowing them?
3794Why should it not be forbidden to demand of this man repayment of former favours?
3794Why then, by trying to protect the rights of the former class, should we reduce them to the level of the basest of mankind?
3794Why, are not some fathers so cruel and so wicked that it is right and proper for their sons to turn away from them, and disown them?
3794Why, do you suppose that it was given to him?
3794Why, if you owed some wine to any man, and he bade you pour it into a net or a sieve, would you say that you had returned it?
3794Why, then, did Socrates say this?
3794Why, when you yourself were making Mamercus Scaurus consul, were you ignorant of his vices?
3794Why?
3794Would anyone have heard of Aristo and Gryllus except through Xenophon and Plato, their sons?
3794Would it not, then, be more honourable to be deceived by some than to suspect all men of dishonesty?
3794Yet there is a great difference between giving and receiving; how should there not be, seeing that these words are the converse of one another?
3794Yet think whether it be not nearer the truth to regard all that I can do, and all that I have done, as mine, due to my own powers and my own will?
3794Yet what credit is there in this?
3794Yet who is so exalted, that fortune may not make him need the aid even of the lowliest?
3794Yet, am I not to live with my preserver?
3794Yet, often as it is the case, what can be more shameful than that there should be no difference between a benefit and hatred?
3794Yet, pray, have they taken away the life which they gave?
3794Yet, setting aside all this, would not the sun be a sight worthy to be contemplated and worshipped, if he did no more than rise and set?
3794You ask,"What connection has this illustration with the subject?"
3794You can not say"Why, what harm do I do him?"
3794You might, moreover, find a great part of the human race guilty, for who is there who does not profit by his neighbour''s wants?
3794You seem to say to me:"Why steer to seaward?
3794You seem to say,"When shall I get free from this obligation?
3794You, the slave of lust, of gluttony, of a harlot, nay, who are owned as a joint chattel by harlots, can you call anyone else a slave?
3794am I not to accept it?
3794and would this be so, if the act of giving did not itself give us pleasure?
3794can hardly carry or remember, are those of friends?
3794did he himself conceal them?
3794did he wish to appear decent?
3794do we bestow benefits upon trees when we tend them that they may not suffer from drought or from hardness of ground?
3794do you not know that a debt can be paid even to a rich man?
3794does it make any difference to us to whom we leave our property, seeing that we can not expect any return from any one?
3794even if dutiful, does not think about it?
3794even if moderate in his desires, does not look forward to it?
3794for what do they impress their seals?
3794for what does the sun make the day now longer and now shorter?
3794for what is nature but God and divine reason, which pervades the universe and all its parts?
3794for, as I have just said, what is there to prevent your returning the kindness even of those who enjoy the greatest prosperity?
3794how long do you mean to forbid me to forget my adventure?
3794how much more might I have earned if I had attached myself to So and so, or to So and so?
3794how seldom does Fortune show judgment in her choice?
3794interest?
3794is Achilles timid?
3794is it not to the door of some door- keeper, or to the gardens of some one who has not even a subordinate office?
3794is it that his gratitude may win for him more friends and more benefits?
3794is there to be one only for all, though the benefits which they have received are different?
3794nay, who ever was ungrateful from any other motive than this?
3794of him from whom I have received any kindness?
3794of him who by his power of consolation brings back to the duties of life one who was plunged in grief, and eager to follow those whom he had lost?
3794of him who holds you back when you would rush into crime?
3794of him who strikes the sword from the hands of the suicide?
3794or can you expect perfect loyalty from one who is forced to slip into your presence through a grudgingly- opened door?
3794or for having rescued himself from brigands?
3794or his grandfather?
3794or his wife and his father- in- law?
3794or if a law be passed forbidding any one to do what I had promised to do for him?
3794or should the punishment be varying, greater or less according to the benefit which each has received?
3794or the fasces?
3794or the judgment- seat and car of triumph?
3794or the purple- bordered robe?
3794or upon his uncle?
3794or would you be willing to return it in such a way that in the act of returning it was lost between you?"
3794or would you do him these services and yet not give him anything?"
3794out of the camp of the enemy and raised him to the consulate?
3794shall I owe you nothing for it?
3794shall the ungrateful man go unpunished?"
3794tell me where I am to stop, how far I am to follow out the pedigree of the family?"
3794that repose in which you are rotting and mouldering?
3794that the fertility of the human race corresponds to the courses of the moon?
3794that the sun by its revolution marks out the year, and that the moon, moving in a smaller orbit, marks out the months?
3794the blood by whose circulation your vital warmth is maintained?
3794the light by which you arrange and perform all the actions of your life?
3794those meats which excite your palate by their delicate flavour after your hunger is appeased?
3794those provocatives which rouse you when wearied with pleasure?
3794though it be more useful, more creditable, more pleasant for him not to know his benefactor, will you not consent to stand aside?
3794what are we to do, seeing that in some cases the benefit conferred is life, and things dearer than life?
3794what young man, even if of innocent life, does not long for his father''s death?
3794when a man is made happier by me and is freed from the greatest danger of unhappiness, does he not receive a benefit?
3794whence come these innumerable delights of our eyes, our ears, and our minds?
3794whence does he come?"
3794whither are these men with their smart military- looking cloaks carrying you?
3794who can bid us weigh dissimilar benefits one with another?
3794who does not loathe the ungrateful man, useless as he is even to himself?
3794why do you overwhelm him with reproaches?
3794why do you set him free from his obligation?
3794why should we decline to be its guardians?
3794why, I pray you, whither are you being hurried by those bearers who carry your litter?
3794why, as though you were dealing with a harsh usurer, are you in such a hurry to sign and seal an equivalent bond?
3794why, what is there to boast of in having paid what you owe?
3794would not the moon be worth looking at, even if it passed uselessly through the heavens?
3794you ought to meet this with,"Have I, then, bestowed a benefit upon a father whom I do not know, whom I never thought of?"
31Oedipus, Oedipus, why tarry we? 31 Why hurry headlong to thy fate, poor fool?"
31( To ANTIGONE) Now answer this plain question, yes or no, Wast thou acquainted with the interdict?
311) Ill it is, stranger, to awake Pain that long since has ceased to ache, And yet I fain would hear-- OEDIPUS What thing?
311) Lady, lead indoors thy consort; wherefore longer here delay?
311) Sweet- voiced daughter of Zeus from thy gold- paved Pythian shrine Wafted to Thebes divine, What dost thou bring me?
311) Wast thou then sightless from thy birth?
311) Who is he by voice immortal named from Pythia''s rocky cell, Doer of foul deeds of bloodshed, horrors that no tongue can tell?
312) And next, unhappy man, thou hast shed blood?
312) Fear not, maids-- ANTIGONE Ah, whither flee?
312) Fight they or now prepare To fight?
312) Thy might, O Zeus, what mortal power can quell?
31ANTIGONE Ah whither turn, O Zeus?
31ANTIGONE And wherefore, father, dost thou summon him?
31ANTIGONE But, brother, why shouldst thou be wroth again?
31ANTIGONE For me?
31ANTIGONE How knowest thou?
31ANTIGONE I knew, all knew; how should I fail to know?
31ANTIGONE My soul is fain-- ISMENE Is fain?
31ANTIGONE Say, wilt thou aid me and abet?
31ANTIGONE Shall I go on and ask about the place?
31ANTIGONE What but the thought of our two brothers dead, The one by Creon graced with funeral rites, The other disappointed?
31ANTIGONE What right has he to keep me from my own?
31ANTIGONE What say''st thou, King?
31ANTIGONE What solemn charge would''st thou impress on him?
31ANTIGONE Who knows if this world''s crimes are virtues there?
31ANTIGONE Why dally then?
31ANTIGONE Wilt thou then bring to pass his prophecies Who threatens mutual slaughter to you both?
31ANTIGONE Would''st thou do more than slay thy prisoner?
31And now this proclamation of today Made by our Captain- General to the State, What can its purport be?
31And now what mission summons thee from home, What news, Ismene, hast thou for thy father?
31And yet how otherwise had I achieved A name so glorious as by burying A brother?
31And yet what pleasure canst thou find In forcing friendship on unwilling foes?
31Are not my teachers surer guides than thine-- Great Phoebus and the sire of Phoebus, Zeus?
31Are they not vanity?
31Are they true, are they false?
31Are ye not ashamed, While the whole land lies striken, thus to voice Your private injuries?
31Art thou not he who coming to the town of Cadmus freed us from the tax we paid To the fell songstress?
31But if Betwixt this stranger there was aught in common With Laius, who more miserable than I, What mortal could you find more god- abhorred?
31But say, Lady, who carried this report to Thebes?
31But where''s the King?
31By a god- sent, painless doom, poor soul?
31CHORUS A father''s?
31CHORUS And what death is she to die?
31CHORUS Art he?
31CHORUS But hath he still no respite from his pain?
31CHORUS Grievous enough for all our tears and groans Our past calamities; what canst thou add?
31CHORUS How right?
31CHORUS How so?
31CHORUS How so?
31CHORUS How?
31CHORUS How?
31CHORUS Is he then gone?
31CHORUS May I then say what seems next best to me?
31CHORUS O doer of dread deeds, how couldst thou mar Thy vision thus?
31CHORUS Surely, thou meanest not to slay them both?
31CHORUS What canst thou further?
31CHORUS What fresh woes bring''st thou to the royal house?
31CHORUS What further duty would''st thou lay on us?
31CHORUS What mean ye, maidens?
31CHORUS What mean ye?
31CHORUS What means this, sirrah?
31CHORUS What would''st thou, stranger?
31CHORUS What, has he gone, the unhappy man?
31CHORUS What, wilt thou rob thine own son of his bride?
31CHORUS Where are the maids and their attendant friends?
31CHORUS Who can he be-- Zeus save us!--this old man?
31CHORUS Who is the slayer, who the victim?
31CHORUS Why then this alarm?
31CHORUS Why then this roam?
31CHORUS Will neither speak?
31CREON Am I to rule for others, or myself?
31CREON And am I wrong, if I maintain my rights?
31CREON And as thy consort queen she shares the throne?
31CREON And what the favor thou wouldst crave of me?
31CREON And with you twain I share the triple rule?
31CREON And yet wert bold enough to break the law?
31CREON But how was she surprised and caught in the act?
31CREON Did any dare pretend that it was I Prompted the seer to utter a forged charge?
31CREON Dost know at whom thou glancest, me thy lord?
31CREON Hast come to such a pass as threaten me?
31CREON Hast thou no shame to differ from all these?
31CREON Hast thou thy wits?
31CREON I protest to these, Not thee, and for thine answer to thy kin, If e''er I take thee-- OEDIPUS Who against their will Could take me?
31CREON I''faith thy wit forsook thee when thou mad''st Thy choice with evil- doers to do ill. ISMENE What life for me without my sister here?
31CREON In what wise was her self- destruction wrought?
31CREON Is not this maid an arrant law- breaker?
31CREON Is that your counsel?
31CREON Listen, O men of Athens, mark ye this?
31CREON O reprobate, would''st wrangle with thy sire?
31CREON Say, how didst thou arrest the maid, and where?
31CREON Speak, girl, with head bent low and downcast eyes, Does thou plead guilty or deny the deed?
31CREON Then let me ask thee, didst thou we d my sister?
31CREON Thy Thebans?
31CREON Unhappy man, will years ne''er make thee wise?
31CREON Was his dead foeman not thy kinsman too?
31CREON Were not his wits and vision all astray When upon me he fixed this monstrous charge?
31CREON What is this?
31CREON What is thy news?
31CREON What say''st thou?
31CREON What then''s thy will?
31CREON What woe is lacking to my tale of woes?
31CREON What would''st thou?
31CREON What''s mean''st thou?
31CREON What, shall the mob dictate my policy?
31CREON What, would you have us at our age be schooled, Lessoned in prudence by a beardless boy?
31CREON Which loses in this parley, I o''erthrown By thee, or thou who overthrow''st thyself?
31CREON Why cast a slur on one by honoring one?
31CREON Why not for me too?
31CREON Why seek to probe and find the seat of pain?
31CREON Why tidings, old Teiresias?
31Can I wish that thou should''st touch One fallen like me to utter wretchedness, Corrupt and tainted with a thousand ills?
31Can nothing melt thee, Or shake thy dogged taciturnity?
31Can this be?
31Child, who bare thee, nymph or goddess?
31Come they from our sightless guest?
31Come, answer this, didst thou detect in me Some touch of cowardice or witlessness, That made thee undertake this enterprise?
31Comes she by chance or learning her son''s fate?
31Did some Heliconian Oread give him thee, a new- born joy?
31Did these things happen as I say, or no?
31Did they not point at me as doomed to slay My father?
31Didst hear and heed, Or art thou deaf when friends are banned as foes?
31Do I wake or dream?
31Does claim me too, O Death?
31Dost know thy lineage?
31Dost take my drift, or seem these words as vain As seemed our warnings when the plot was hatched?
31Dost thou know the place?
31Dost thou presume To approach my doors, thou brazen- faced rogue, My murderer and the filcher of my crown?
31Father, speak, nor turn away, Hast thou no word, wilt thou dismiss me then In mute disdain, nor tell me why thou art wrath?
31Find''st thou pleasure in these gibes?
31First, I bid thee think, Would any mortal choose a troubled reign Of terrors rather than secure repose, If the same power were given him?
31For what can wound so surely to the quick As a false friend?
31For what of pain, affliction, outrage, shame, Is lacking in our fortunes, thine and mine?
31GUARD Let me premise a word about myself?
31GUARD Where, my lord?
31Go, let her, if she will, Appeal to Zeus the God of Kindred, for If thus I nurse rebellion in my house, Shall not I foster mutiny without?
31HAEMON What threat is this, vain counsels to reprove?
31HAEMON When thou dost speak, must no man make reply?
31HERDSMAN O best of masters, what is my offense?
31HERDSMAN Why dost thou ask this question?
31HERDSMAN Yon man?
31Hapless child of hapless sire, Didst thou recklessly conspire, Madly brave the King''s decree?
31Has Creon pitied me And sent me my two darlings?
31Hast thou some pain unknown before, Or with the circling years renewest a penance of yore?
31Have I found so?
31Have not I more skill Than thou to draw the horoscope of Thebes?
31He groaned and uttered then this bitter plaint:"Am I a prophet?
31He the all- presumptuous man, Whither vanished?
31Hereafter can I look to any god For succor, call on any man for help?
31How can I now assent when a crime is on Oedipus laid?
31How could I lead again An army that had seen their leader quail?
31How could a title then have charms for me Above the sweets of boundless influence?
31How could the soil thy father eared so long Endure to bear in silence such a wrong?
31How, How, could I longer see when sight Brought no delight?
31I adjure thee, tell me who Say, was it father, mother?
31ISMENE Alas, my sister, what new fate************ Befalls us orphans desolate?
31ISMENE But how, my rash, fond sister, in such case Can I do anything to make or mar?
31ISMENE But, if the venture''s hopeless, why essay?
31ISMENE How shall I unhappy fare, Friendless, helpless, how drag on A life of misery alone?
31ISMENE In what bold venture?
31ISMENE Is e''en this boon denied, to share thy lot?
31ISMENE Know''st not-- beside-- ANTIGONE More must I hear?
31ISMENE Nay, thou can''st not, dost not see-- ANTIGONE Sister, wherefore wroth with me?
31ISMENE Sayest thou?
31ISMENE What is it?
31ISMENE What would life profit me bereft of thee?
31ISMENE What, bury him despite the interdict?
31ISMENE What, wilt thou slay thy own son''s plighted bride?
31ISMENE Why return?
31ISMENE Why taunt me?
31ISMENE Wilt thou persist, though Creon has forbid?
31If one should say, this is the handiwork Of some inhuman power, who could blame His judgment?
31If sin like this to honor can aspire, Why dance I still and lead the sacred choir?
31Is Death at work again, Stroke upon stroke, first son, then mother slain?
31Is it a thunderbolt of Zeus or sleet Of arrowy hail?
31Is it dread Of ill that moves you or a boon ye crave?
31Is it meet Thus to insult me living, to my face?
31Is it not arrant folly to pretend That gods would have a thought for this dead man?

31JOCASTA But what provoked the quarrel?
31JOCASTA He shall be brought; but wherefore summon him?
31JOCASTA Misguided princes, why have ye upraised This wordy wrangle?
31JOCASTA Of his own knowledge or upon report?
31JOCASTA Say, did not I foretell this long ago?
31JOCASTA Suppose him here, what wouldst thou learn of him?
31JOCASTA Well, he shall come, but may not I too claim To share the burden of thy heart, my king?
31JOCASTA Were both at fault?

31MESSENGER And what of her can cause you any fear?
31MESSENGER Dost thou not know thy fears are baseless all?
31MESSENGER Lest through thy parents thou shouldst be accursed?
31MESSENGER Was this the fear that exiled thee from home?
31MESSENGER Well, thou mast then remember giving me A child to rear as my own foster- son?
31MESSENGER Who may this woman be whom thus you fear?
31MESSENGER Why, since I came to give thee pleasure, King, Have I not rid thee of this second fear?

31OEDIPUS A daughter''s yearning?
31OEDIPUS A foundling or a purchased slave, this child?
31OEDIPUS A vagrant shepherd journeying for hire?
31OEDIPUS After what manner, stranger?
31OEDIPUS Ah, why remind me of that ancient sore?
31OEDIPUS And after I have gotten this pure draught?
31OEDIPUS And can a son of mine have heard of this?
31OEDIPUS And how long is it since these things befell?
31OEDIPUS And is he living still for me to see him?
31OEDIPUS And think you he will have such care or thought For the blind stranger as to come himself?
31OEDIPUS And what was that?
31OEDIPUS And when the embowered earth hath drunk thereof?
31OEDIPUS And wherewith shall I fill it, Ere in its place I set it?
31OEDIPUS And who could gain by such a one as I?
31OEDIPUS And who could stay his choler when he heard How insolently thou dost flout the State?
31OEDIPUS Art come, my child?
31OEDIPUS Ask me not yet; tell me the build and height Of Laius?
31OEDIPUS Bethink you that in seeking this ye seek In very sooth my death or banishment?
31OEDIPUS But if thou leave me?
31OEDIPUS But was no search and inquisition made?
31OEDIPUS By treachery, or by sickness visited?
31OEDIPUS Came there no news, no fellow- traveler To give some clue that might be followed up?
31OEDIPUS Child of an old blind sire, Antigone, What region, say, whose city have we reached?
31OEDIPUS Child, thou art here?
31OEDIPUS Dare ye inquire concerning such a wretch?
31OEDIPUS Daughter, what counsel should we now pursue?
31OEDIPUS Did I not warn thee?
31OEDIPUS Did any bandit dare so bold a stroke, Unless indeed he were suborned from Thebes?
31OEDIPUS Did he at that time ever glance at me?
31OEDIPUS Did the same prophet then pursue his craft?
31OEDIPUS Didst give this man the child of whom he asks?
31OEDIPUS Didst thou or didst thou not advise that I Should call the priest?
31OEDIPUS Dost know what grace thou cravest?
31OEDIPUS Doth any bystander among you know The herd he speaks of, or by seeing him Afield or in the city?
31OEDIPUS Forbear, nor urge me further to reveal-- CHORUS Why this reluctance?
31OEDIPUS From whom of these our townsmen, and what house?
31OEDIPUS Had he but few attendants or a train Of armed retainers with him, like a prince?
31OEDIPUS Haply he is at hand or in the house?
31OEDIPUS Hast thou indeed then entertained a hope The gods at last will turn and rescue me?
31OEDIPUS Hast thou my child?
31OEDIPUS Hath Phoebus spoken thus concerning me?
31OEDIPUS Hear ye, my daughters, what these strangers say?
31OEDIPUS Her plight and mine?
31OEDIPUS How baseless, if I am their very son?
31OEDIPUS How call you then the place wherein we bide?
31OEDIPUS How keep you then your troth?
31OEDIPUS How runs the oracle?
31OEDIPUS How so, old man?
31OEDIPUS How wilt thou act then?
31OEDIPUS Is the prince coming?
31OEDIPUS Is this a plot of Creon, or thine own?
31OEDIPUS Know''st one of Laius''-- CHORUS Ha?
31OEDIPUS Madam, dost know the man we sent to fetch?
31OEDIPUS May I sit down?
31OEDIPUS Mean they to shroud my bones in Theban dust?
31OEDIPUS Might one be sent from you to summon him?
31OEDIPUS Must I endure this fellow''s insolence?
31OEDIPUS Must ye hear more?
31OEDIPUS My children, latest born to Cadmus old, Why sit ye here as suppliants, in your hands Branches of olive filleted with wool?
31OEDIPUS My savior?
31OEDIPUS My sire no more to me than one who is naught?
31OEDIPUS My wife, my queen, Jocasta, why hast thou Summoned me from my palace?
31OEDIPUS O daughter, what will hap anon?
31OEDIPUS O shameless railer, think''st thou this abuse Defames my grey hairs rather than thine own?
31OEDIPUS O what avails renown or fair repute?
31OEDIPUS Pouring it from the urns whereof ye spake?
31OEDIPUS Ruled by a king or by the general voice?
31OEDIPUS Say to what should I consent?
31OEDIPUS Say, friends, can any look or voice Or touch of love henceforth my heart rejoice?
31OEDIPUS Shall I go further?
31OEDIPUS Sirrah, what mak''st thou here?
31OEDIPUS Slave- born or one of Laius''own race?
31OEDIPUS Stay where I now am?
31OEDIPUS Tell me how long is it since Laius... CREON Since Laius...?
31OEDIPUS Tell me the awful name I should invoke?
31OEDIPUS The king who ruled the country long ago?
31OEDIPUS Then there Thou must have known yon man, at least by fame?
31OEDIPUS Think''st thou for aye unscathed to wag thy tongue?
31OEDIPUS Thou sayest there are dwellers in these parts?
31OEDIPUS Thy valiant brothers, where are they at need?
31OEDIPUS Was he within his palace, or afield, Or traveling, when Laius met his fate?
31OEDIPUS What ails thee?
31OEDIPUS What brought thee, daughter?
31OEDIPUS What didst thou give it then to this old man?
31OEDIPUS What expiation means he?

31OEDIPUS What say''st thou?
31OEDIPUS What sayest thou--"parents"?
31OEDIPUS What seeks he?
31OEDIPUS What speech?
31OEDIPUS What trouble can have hindered a full quest, When royalty had fallen thus miserably?
31OEDIPUS What was thy business?
31OEDIPUS What weird?
31OEDIPUS What were the pastures thou didst most frequent?
31OEDIPUS What, did another find me, not thyself?
31OEDIPUS What, moving hitherward and on his way?
31OEDIPUS What?
31OEDIPUS When what conjunction comes to pass, my child?
31OEDIPUS Whence came it?
31OEDIPUS Where are they?
31OEDIPUS Where are ye then?
31OEDIPUS Where art thou, daughter?
31OEDIPUS Where did this happen?
31OEDIPUS Where is he, strangers, he who sways the realm?
31OEDIPUS Who did it?
31OEDIPUS Who is this man, and what his news for me?
31OEDIPUS Who is this monarch, great in word and might?
31OEDIPUS Who may he be?
31OEDIPUS Who was he?
31OEDIPUS Who was thy teacher?
31OEDIPUS Whom can he mean, the miscreant thus denounced?
31OEDIPUS Why failed the seer to tell his story_ then_?
31OEDIPUS Why for such a knave?
31OEDIPUS Why this appeal, my daughter?
31OEDIPUS With what intent, my daughter?
31OEDIPUS With what intent?
31OEDIPUS Ye hear his words?
31OEDIPUS Yea, were it lawful-- but''tis rather here-- THESEUS What wouldst thou here?
31OEDIPUS Yes, a murderer, but know-- CHORUS What canst thou plead?
31Of did Loxias beget thee, for he haunts the upland wold; Or Cyllene''s lord, or Bacchus, dweller on the hilltops cold?
31Or haply now we see fulfilled What fate long time hath willed?
31Or know''st thou what thou say''st?
31POLYNEICES What would''st thou, sweet Antigone?
31POLYNEICES''Tis shame to live in exile, and shall I The elder bear a younger brother''s flouts?
31Proof is there none: how then can I challenge our King''s good name, How in a blood- feud join for an untracked deed of shame?
31STRANGER How can he profit from a sightless man?
31STRANGER What word is this?
31STRANGER Wherefore?
31Say you''twas done at my desire, a grace Which the state, yielding to my wish, allowed?
31Say, am I vile?
31Say, didst thou too abet This crime, or dost abjure all privity?
31Say, is it fit To slay anew a man already slain?
31Say, sirrah, hast thou ever proved thyself A prophet?
31Seems it not cruel this reproach I cast On thee and on myself and all the race?

31TEIRESIAS How far good counsel is the best of goods?
31TEIRESIAS In reading riddles who so skilled as thou?
31TEIRESIAS Is it so?
31TEIRESIAS Must I say more to aggravate thy rage?
31THESEUS Ask not what?
31THESEUS How sayest thou they signify their will?
31THESEUS Thou cravest life''s last service; all before-- Is it forgotten or of no account?
31THESEUS Thou meanest that betwixt thy sons and me?
31THESEUS What ails thee now?
31THESEUS What are they threatened by the oracle?

31Thus branded as a felon by myself, How had I dared to look you in the face?
31Thus sprung why should I fear to trace my birth?
31To banish me the land?
31To hear him then, what harm?
31To tell him aught or urge his coming?
31Was ever fate like mine?

31What tongue can tell That sight ineffable?
31What''s amiss?
31What, I marvel, pondering?
31What, born as mine were born?
31When the King saw him, with a terrible groan He moved towards him, crying,"O my son What hast thou done?

31Why didst thou harbor me, Cithaeron, why Didst thou not take and slay me?
31Why should I leave the better, choose the worse?
31Why should we gloze and flatter, to be proved Liars hereafter?
31Why silent?
31Why so loth to hear him?
31Why then, thou askest, am I here today?
31Why this despondency?
31Why this melancholy mood?
31Why this summons?
31Will nothing loose thy tongue?
31Wither roam O''er land or sea in our distress Eating the bread of bitterness?
31Would''st lay an hand on me?
31Would''st thou know again the man?
31Wouldst thou betray us and destroy the State?
31Yet am I then A villain born because in self- defense, Striken, I struck the striker back again?
31You would have me yield?
31[ 6] OEDIPUS And who hath told thee what thou tell''st me, child?
31[ Enter ANTIGONE and ISMENE with THESEUS] OEDIPUS Where, where?
31[ Enter CREON] CREON Why is my presence timely?
31[ Enter CREON] My royal cousin, say, Menoeceus''child, What message hast thou brought us from the god?
31[ Enter THESEUS] THESEUS Wherefore again this general din?
31[ Enter THESEUS] THESEUS Why this outcry?
31[ Exit EURYDICE] CHORUS What makest thou of this?
31[ Exit JOCASTA] CHORUS Why, Oedipus, why stung with passionate grief Hath the queen thus departed?
31[ Exit STRANGER] OEDIPUS Tell me, my daughter, has the stranger gone?

31am not I a Theban too?
31but say, will any dare, Hearing his prophecy, to follow thee?
31by his father''s or his own?
31can it be my pretty ones Whose sobs I hear?
31canst thou not see That e''en this question irks me?
31doth any know and lay to heart-- CREON Is this the prelude to some hackneyed saw?
31from what harm?
31he cried,"Where is the wife, no wife, the teeming womb That bore a double harvest, me and mine?"
31how came she by her death?
31how can I brook On thy misery to look?
31how must I end the ritual?
31how wast thou employed?
31in what way?
31is he dead, the sire of Oedipus?
31is not aged Polybus still king?
31she, she gave it thee?
31was it thine, or given to thee?
31was not Polybus my sire?
31what ailed me then?
31what man dost thou mean?
31what say ye, child?
31what sayest thou?
31what the suitor''s prayer?
31what words to accost him can I find?
31what wouldst thou further learn?
31where shall I fly, where find Succor from gods or men?
31wherefore was I called away From the altar of Poseidon, lord of your Colonus?
31why should one regard The Pythian hearth or birds that scream i''the air?
31will no messenger Go summon hither Theseus my best friend?
31ye will not surely play me false?
1726''And he who remembers, remembers that which he sees and knows?''
1726''And he who sees knows?''
1726''And if you say"Yes,"the tongue will escape conviction but not the mind, as Euripides would say?''
1726''But Protagoras will retort:"Can anything be more or less without addition or subtraction?"''
1726''But if he closes his eyes, does he not remember?''
1726''Excellent; I want you to grow, and therefore I will leave that answer and ask another question: Is not seeing perceiving?''
1726''That I should expect; but why did he not remain at Megara?''
1726''What do you mean, Socrates?''
1726''What do you mean?''
1726''What may that be?''
1726''Why, Socrates, how can you argue at all without using them?''
1726( b) Would he have based the relativity of knowledge on the Heraclitean flux?
1726( c) Would he have asserted the absoluteness of sensation at each instant?
1726--That will be our answer?
1726Am I not right, Theaetetus, and is not this your new- born child, of which I have delivered you?
1726Am I not right?
1726Am I not right?
1726And could you repeat the conversation?''
1726And do you not like the taste of them in the mouth?
1726And has Plato kept altogether clear of a confusion, which the analogous word logos tends to create, of a proposition and a definition?
1726And how can any one be ignorant of either of them, and yet know both of them?
1726And if they differ in opinion, which of them is likely to be right; or are they both right?
1726And is not the confusion increased by the use of the analogous term''elements,''or''letters''?
1726And now, what are you saying?--Are there two sorts of opinion, one true and the other false; and do you define knowledge to be the true?
1726And so we must ask again, What is knowledge?
1726And so you are satisfied that false opinion is heterodoxy, or the thought of something else?
1726And so, Theaetetus, knowledge is neither sensation nor true opinion, nor yet definition and explanation accompanying and added to true opinion?
1726And the same of perceiving: do you understand me?
1726And therefore let us draw nearer, as the advocate of Protagoras desires; and give the truth of the universal flux a ring: is the theory sound or not?
1726And what other case is conceivable, upon the supposition that we either know or do not know all things?
1726And yet is not the all that of which nothing is wanting?
1726Are its movements identical with those of the body, or only preconcerted and coincident with them, or is one simply an aspect of the other?
1726Are not these speculations charming, Theaetetus, and very good for a person in your interesting situation?
1726Are you so profoundly convinced of this?
1726Are you still in labour, or have you brought all you have to say about knowledge to the birth?
1726But I should like to know, Socrates, whether you mean to say that all this is untrue?''
1726But are we not inverting the natural order in looking for opinion before we have found knowledge?
1726But did you ever say to yourself, that good is evil, or evil good?
1726But do you begin to see what is the explanation of this perplexity on the hypothesis which we attribute to Protagoras?
1726But have we not escaped one difficulty only to encounter a greater?
1726But here we are met by a singular difficulty: How is false opinion possible?
1726But how can he who knows the forms of knowledge and the forms of ignorance imagine one to be the other?
1726But how can the syllable be known if the letter remains unknown?
1726But how is false opinion possible?
1726But if knowledge is perception, how can we distinguish between the true and the false in such cases?
1726But is true opinion really distinct from knowledge?
1726But may there not be''heterodoxy,''or transference of opinion;--I mean, may not one thing be supposed to be another?
1726But still an old difficulty recurs; we ask ourselves,''How is false opinion possible?''
1726But tell me, Socrates, in heaven''s name, is this, after all, not the truth?
1726But then, as Plato asks,--and we must repeat the question,--What becomes of the mind?
1726But what is SO?
1726But what is the third definition?
1726But when the word''knowledge''was found how was it to be explained or defined?
1726But why did he go on, instead of stopping at Megara?
1726But would this hold in any parallel case?
1726But, as we are at our wits''end, suppose that we do a shameless thing?
1726But, seeing that we are no great wits, shall I venture to say what knowing is?
1726Can a man see and see nothing?
1726Can a whole be something different from the parts?
1726Can two unknowns make a known?
1726Can we answer that question?
1726Can we suppose one set of feelings or one part of the mind to interpret another?
1726Could he have pretended to cite from a well- known writing what was not to be found there?
1726Did Protagoras merely mean to assert the relativity of knowledge to the human mind?
1726Did you ever hear that too?
1726Do we not seem to perceive instinctively and as an act of sense the differences of articulate speech and of musical notes?
1726Do you agree?
1726Do you know the original principle on which the doctrine of Protagoras is based?''
1726Do you see, Theaetetus, the bearings of this tale on the preceding argument?
1726Do you suppose that what is one is ever to be found among non- existing things?
1726Does it differ as subject and object in the same manner?
1726Does not explanation appear to be of this nature?
1726EUCLID: Have you only just arrived from the country, Terpsion?
1726Even in sleep, did you ever imagine that odd was even?
1726For an objection occurs to him:--May there not be errors where there is no confusion of mind and sense?
1726For how can the exchange of two kinds of knowledge ever become false opinion?
1726For how can we know a compound of which the simple elements are unknown to us?
1726For if the Heraclitean flux is extended to every sort of change in every instant of time, how can any thought or word be detained even for an instant?
1726For must not opinion be equally expressed in a proposition?
1726He asks whether a man can know and not know at the same time?
1726How can a man understand the name of anything, when he does not know the nature of it?
1726How can you or any one maintain the contrary?
1726How is this?
1726How will Protagoras answer this argument?
1726I dare say that you agree with me, do you not?
1726I have, I fear, a tedious way of putting a simple question, which is only, whether a man who has learned, and remembers, can fail to know?
1726I hope, Theodorus, that I am not betrayed into rudeness by my love of conversation?
1726I suppose, Theodorus, that you have never seen them in time of peace, when they discourse at leisure to their disciples?
1726I will endeavour, however, to explain what I believe to be my meaning: When you speak of cobbling, you mean the art or science of making shoes?
1726I will make my meaning clearer by an example:--You admit that there is an art of arithmetic?
1726If all that exists in time is illusion, we may well ask with Plato,''What becomes of the mind?''
1726In what does this differ from the saying of Theaetetus?
1726Is he to be reared in any case, and not exposed?
1726Is it not one which would task the powers of men perfect in every way?
1726Is it not so?
1726Is not the world full of men in their several employments, who are looking for teachers and rulers of themselves and of the animals?
1726Is not this a"reductio ad absurdum"of the hypothesis that knowledge is sensible perception?
1726Is the introspecting thought the same with the thought which is introspected?
1726Is the mind active or passive, or partly both?
1726Is there any stopping in the act of seeing and hearing?
1726Is there only one kind of motion, or, as I rather incline to think, two?
1726Is there some other form of knowledge which distinguishes them?
1726Let us grant what you say-- then, according to you, he who takes ignorance will have a false opinion-- am I right?
1726Man, he says, is the measure of all things, of the existence of things that are, and of the non- existence of things that are not:--You have read him?
1726Must he not be talking''ad captandum''in all this?
1726Must he not see, hear, or touch some one existing thing?
1726Nay, not even in sleep, did you ever venture to say to yourself that odd is even, or anything of the kind?
1726O Theaetetus, are not these speculations sweet as honey?
1726O Theodorus, do you think that there is any use in proceeding when the danger is so great?
1726Once more then, Theaetetus, I repeat my old question--"What is knowledge?"
1726Once more, then, Theaetetus, I repeat my old question,''What is knowledge?''
1726Or again, if we see letters which we do not understand, shall we say that we do not see them?
1726Or are they both right?--he will have a heat and fever in his own judgment, and not have a fever in the physician''s judgment?
1726Or did any man in his senses ever fancy that an ox was a horse, or that two are one?
1726Or did he mean to deny that there is an objective standard of truth?
1726Or where is the spectator having any right to censure or control us, as he might the poets?
1726Or would he admit that a man is one at all, and not rather many and infinite as the changes which take place in him?
1726Or would he hesitate to acknowledge that the same man may know and not know the same thing?
1726Or would you say that a whole, although formed out of the parts, is a single notion different from all the parts?
1726Or, if he is afraid of making this admission, would he ever grant that one who has become unlike is the same as before he became unlike?
1726Plato discards both figures, as not really solving the question which to us appears so simple:''How do we make mistakes?''
1726Rather would it not be true that it never appears exactly the same to you, because you are never exactly the same?
1726SOCRATES: According to this new view, the whole is supposed to differ from all?
1726SOCRATES: Again, in speaking of all( in the plural) is there not one thing which we express?
1726SOCRATES: Again, the number of the acre and the acre are the same; are they not?
1726SOCRATES: Am I talking nonsense, then?
1726SOCRATES: And I dare say too, or rather I am absolutely certain, that the midwives know better than others who is pregnant and who is not?
1726SOCRATES: And I who am the patient, and that which is the agent, will produce something different in each of the two cases?
1726SOCRATES: And also that different combinations will produce results which are not the same, but different?
1726SOCRATES: And another and another?
1726SOCRATES: And are you still in labour and travail, my dear friend, or have you brought all that you have to say about knowledge to the birth?
1726SOCRATES: And astronomy and harmony and calculation?
1726SOCRATES: And by wisdom the wise are wise?
1726SOCRATES: And can a man attain truth who fails of attaining being?
1726SOCRATES: And can he who misses the truth of anything, have a knowledge of that thing?
1726SOCRATES: And did you find such a class?
1726SOCRATES: And do we mean by a syllable two letters, or if there are more, all of them, or a single idea which arises out of the combination of them?
1726SOCRATES: And do you mean by conceiving, the same which I mean?
1726SOCRATES: And do you not remember that in your case and in that of others this often occurred in the process of learning to read?
1726SOCRATES: And do you suppose that with women the case is otherwise?
1726SOCRATES: And does he not allow that his own opinion is false, if he admits that the opinion of those who think him false is true?
1726SOCRATES: And does not he who thinks some one thing, think something which is?
1726SOCRATES: And does not he who thinks, think some one thing?
1726SOCRATES: And does not my art show that you have brought forth wind, and that the offspring of your brain are not worth bringing up?
1726SOCRATES: And does she not perceive the hardness of that which is hard by the touch, and the softness of that which is soft equally by the touch?
1726SOCRATES: And have you never heard, simpleton, that I am the son of a midwife, brave and burly, whose name was Phaenarete?
1726SOCRATES: And he can reckon abstract numbers in his head, or things about him which are numerable?
1726SOCRATES: And he who hears anything, hears some one thing, and hears that which is?
1726SOCRATES: And he who thinks of nothing, does not think at all?
1726SOCRATES: And he who touches anything, touches something which is one and therefore is?
1726SOCRATES: And how about Protagoras himself?
1726SOCRATES: And if any one were to ask you: With what does a man see black and white colours?
1726SOCRATES: And if he closed his eyes, would he forget?
1726SOCRATES: And if our recent definition holds, every man knows that which he has seen?
1726SOCRATES: And if they are to be in motion, and nothing is to be devoid of motion, all things must always have every sort of motion?
1726SOCRATES: And if unlike, they are other?
1726SOCRATES: And if we found that he was, we should take his word; and if not, not?
1726SOCRATES: And in each form of expression we spoke of all the six?
1726SOCRATES: And in like manner be may enumerate without knowing them the second and third and fourth syllables of your name?
1726SOCRATES: And in that case, when he knows the order of the letters and can write them out correctly, he has right opinion?
1726SOCRATES: And is Theodorus a painter?
1726SOCRATES: And is he an astronomer and calculator and musician, and in general an educated man?
1726SOCRATES: And is it not shameless when we do not know what knowledge is, to be explaining the verb''to know''?
1726SOCRATES: And is memory of something or of nothing?
1726SOCRATES: And is not a whole likewise that from which nothing is absent?
1726SOCRATES: And is not the bodily habit spoiled by rest and idleness, but preserved for a long time by motion and exercise?
1726SOCRATES: And is not this also the reason why they are simple and indivisible?
1726SOCRATES: And is that different in any way from knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And is the discovery of the nature of knowledge so small a matter, as just now said?
1726SOCRATES: And is truth or falsehood to be determined by duration of time?
1726SOCRATES: And may not the same be said of madness and other disorders?
1726SOCRATES: And must therefore be admitted to be unlike?
1726SOCRATES: And of true opinion also?
1726SOCRATES: And seeing is knowing, and therefore not- seeing is not- knowing?
1726SOCRATES: And so, when the question is asked, What is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And that I myself practise midwifery?
1726SOCRATES: And that both are two and each of them one?
1726SOCRATES: And that either of them is different from the other, and the same with itself?
1726SOCRATES: And that is six?
1726SOCRATES: And that which he does not know will sometimes not be perceived by him and sometimes will be perceived and only perceived?
1726SOCRATES: And the army is the number of the army; and in all similar cases, the entire number of anything is the entire thing?
1726SOCRATES: And the number of each is the parts of each?
1726SOCRATES: And the number of the stadium in like manner is the stadium?
1726SOCRATES: And the race of animals is generated in the same way?
1726SOCRATES: And the truth of Protagoras being doubted by all, will be true neither to himself to any one else?
1726SOCRATES: And therefore not in science or knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And they are moved in both those ways which we distinguished, that is to say, they move in place and are also changed?
1726SOCRATES: And to reckon is simply to consider how much such and such a number amounts to?
1726SOCRATES: And to which class would you refer being or essence; for this, of all our notions, is the most universal?
1726SOCRATES: And what name would you give to seeing, hearing, smelling, being cold and being hot?
1726SOCRATES: And what of the mental habit?
1726SOCRATES: And what would you say of perceptions, such as sight and hearing, or any other kind of perception?
1726SOCRATES: And when you speak of carpentering, you mean the art of making wooden implements?
1726SOCRATES: And who could take up arms against such a great army having Homer for its general, and not appear ridiculous?
1726SOCRATES: And would you call the two processes by the same name, when there is so great a difference between them?
1726SOCRATES: And would you not say that persuading them is making them have an opinion?
1726SOCRATES: And would you not say the same of Socrates sleeping and waking, or in any of the states which we were mentioning?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say that all and the whole are the same, or different?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say the same of the noble and base, and of good and evil?
1726SOCRATES: And would you say this also of like and unlike, same and other?
1726SOCRATES: And you allow and maintain that true opinion, combined with definition or rational explanation, is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: And you would admit that there is such a thing as memory?
1726SOCRATES: And, in order to avoid this, we suppose it to be different from them?
1726SOCRATES: Attend to what follows: must not the perfect arithmetician know all numbers, for he has the science of all numbers in his mind?
1726SOCRATES: But all the parts are admitted to be the all, if the entire number is the all?
1726SOCRATES: But although we admit that he has right opinion, he will still be without knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: But can he be ignorant of either singly and yet know both together?
1726SOCRATES: But can you certainly determine by any other means which of these opinions is true?
1726SOCRATES: But if it be one and indivisible, then the syllables and the letters are alike undefined and unknown, and for the same reason?
1726SOCRATES: But if letters are not parts of syllables, can you tell me of any other parts of syllables, which are not letters?
1726SOCRATES: But is a part a part of anything but the whole?
1726SOCRATES: But is the aim attained always?
1726SOCRATES: But is there any parallel to this?
1726SOCRATES: But may not the following be the description of what we express by this name?
1726SOCRATES: But must not the mind, or thinking power, which misplaces them, have a conception either of both objects or of one of them?
1726SOCRATES: But surely he can not suppose what he knows to be what he does not know, or what he does not know to be what he knows?
1726SOCRATES: But then, my boy, how can any one contend that knowledge is perception, or that to every man what appears is?
1726SOCRATES: But through what do you perceive all this about them?
1726SOCRATES: But were we not saying that when a thing has parts, all the parts will be a whole and all?
1726SOCRATES: But when I am sick, the wine really acts upon another and a different person?
1726SOCRATES: Can a man see something and yet see nothing?
1726SOCRATES: Capital; and what followed?
1726SOCRATES: Do you hear, Theaetetus, what Theodorus says?
1726SOCRATES: Do you see another question which can be raised about these phenomena, notably about dreaming and waking?
1726SOCRATES: Does he not say that things are to you such as they appear to you, and to me such as they appear to me, and that you and I are men?
1726SOCRATES: Either together or in succession?
1726SOCRATES: Exactly; and I want you to consider whether this does not imply that the twelve in the waxen block are supposed to be eleven?
1726SOCRATES: Excellent; but then, how did he distinguish between things which are and are not''knowable''?
1726SOCRATES: He knows, that is, the S and O?
1726SOCRATES: He then who sees some one thing, sees something which is?
1726SOCRATES: He who knows, can not but know; and he who does not know, can not know?
1726SOCRATES: He will certainly not think that he has a false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: He will think that his opinion is true, and he will fancy that he knows the things about which he has been deceived?
1726SOCRATES: Herein lies the difficulty which I can never solve to my satisfaction-- What is knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: How about sounds and colours: in the first place you would admit that they both exist?
1726SOCRATES: How can the exchange of one knowledge for another ever become false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: How then, Protagoras, would you have us treat the argument?
1726SOCRATES: How then, if I never err, and if my mind never trips in the conception of being or becoming, can I fail of knowing that which I perceive?
1726SOCRATES: I think so too; for, suppose that some one asks you to spell the first syllable of my name:--Theaetetus, he says, what is SO?
1726SOCRATES: I wish that you would give me a similar definition of the S. THEAETETUS: But how can any one, Socrates, tell the elements of an element?
1726SOCRATES: If a man has both of them in his thoughts, he can not think that the one of them is the other?
1726SOCRATES: If they only moved in place and were not changed, we should be able to say what is the nature of the things which are in motion and flux?
1726SOCRATES: If you have any thought about both of them, this common perception can not come to you, either through the one or the other organ?
1726SOCRATES: If, then, anything happens to become like or unlike itself or another, when it becomes like we call it the same-- when unlike, other?
1726SOCRATES: In both cases you define the subject matter of each of the two arts?
1726SOCRATES: In the first place, I should like to ask what you learn of Theodorus: something of geometry, perhaps?
1726SOCRATES: Is he a geometrician?
1726SOCRATES: Is it still worth our while to resume the discussion touching opinion?
1726SOCRATES: It is possible then upon your view for the mind to conceive of one thing as another?
1726SOCRATES: Let me offer an illustration: Suppose that a person were to ask about some very trivial and obvious thing-- for example, What is clay?
1726SOCRATES: Let us take them and put them to the test, or rather, test ourselves:--What was the way in which we learned letters?
1726SOCRATES: Let us take you and me, or anything as an example:--There is Socrates in health, and Socrates sick-- Are they like or unlike?
1726SOCRATES: May we not pursue the image of the doves, and say that the chase after knowledge is of two kinds?
1726SOCRATES: Neither, if he has one of them only in his mind and not the other, can he think that one is the other?
1726SOCRATES: Nor of any other science?
1726SOCRATES: Of things learned and perceived, that is?
1726SOCRATES: Often a man remembers that which he has seen?
1726SOCRATES: Once more we shall have to begin, and ask''What is knowledge?''
1726SOCRATES: Or that anything appears the same to you as to another man?
1726SOCRATES: Perception would be the collective name of them?
1726SOCRATES: Quite true, Theaetetus, and therefore, according to our present view, a syllable must surely be some indivisible form?
1726SOCRATES: Shall I tell you the reason?
1726SOCRATES: Shall I tell you, Theodorus, what amazes me in your acquaintance Protagoras?
1726SOCRATES: Shall we say that we know every thing which we see and hear?
1726SOCRATES: Tell me, now-- How in that case could I have formed a judgment of you any more than of any one else?
1726SOCRATES: That is good news; whose son is he?
1726SOCRATES: That is of six?
1726SOCRATES: That was my reason for asking how we ought to speak when an arithmetician sets about numbering, or a grammarian about reading?
1726SOCRATES: The wine which I drink when I am in health, appears sweet and pleasant to me?
1726SOCRATES: Then as many things as have parts are made up of parts?
1726SOCRATES: Then do we not come back to the old difficulty?
1726SOCRATES: Then false opinion has no existence in us, either in the sphere of being or of knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then he who does not know what science or knowledge is, has no knowledge of the art or science of making shoes?
1726SOCRATES: Then he who thinks of that which is not, thinks of nothing?
1726SOCRATES: Then he will think that he has captured knowledge and not ignorance?
1726SOCRATES: Then in predicating the word''all''of things measured by number, we predicate at the same time a singular and a plural?
1726SOCRATES: Then is not the syllable in the same case as the elements or letters, if it has no parts and is one form?
1726SOCRATES: Then it must appear so to each of them?
1726SOCRATES: Then motion is a good, and rest an evil, to the soul as well as to the body?
1726SOCRATES: Then no one can think that which is not, either as a self- existent substance or as a predicate of something else?
1726SOCRATES: Then now let me ask the awful question, which is this:--Can a man know and also not know that which he knows?
1726SOCRATES: Then now we may admit the existence of false opinion in us?
1726SOCRATES: Then now, Theaetetus, take another view of the subject: you answered that knowledge is perception?
1726SOCRATES: Then perception is always of existence, and being the same as knowledge is unerring?
1726SOCRATES: Then perception, Theaetetus, can never be the same as knowledge or science?
1726SOCRATES: Then right opinion implies the perception of differences?
1726SOCRATES: Then the whole is not made up of parts, for it would be the all, if consisting of all the parts?
1726SOCRATES: Then they must be distinguished?
1726SOCRATES: Then to think falsely is different from thinking that which is not?
1726SOCRATES: Then when any one thinks of one thing as another, he is saying to himself that one thing is another?
1726SOCRATES: Then when we were asked what is knowledge, we no more answered what is knowledge than what is not knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then wisdom and knowledge are the same?
1726SOCRATES: Then you and Theodorus mean to say that we must look at the matter in some other way?
1726SOCRATES: Then, I suppose, my friend, that we have been so far right in our idea about knowledge?
1726SOCRATES: Then, if that which acts upon me has relation to me and to no other, I and no other am the percipient of it?
1726SOCRATES: Thus, then, the assertion that knowledge and perception are one, involves a manifest impossibility?
1726SOCRATES: We have at length satisfactorily proven beyond a doubt there are these two sorts of opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and shall we do as he says?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and what is the difficulty?
1726SOCRATES: Well, and what is the meaning of the term''explanation''?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but are we to assert that what you think is true to you and false to the ten thousand others?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but have we been right in maintaining that the syllables can be known, but not the letters?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but is there any difference between all( in the plural) and the all( in the singular)?
1726SOCRATES: Well, but will you not be equally inclined to disagree with him, when you remember your own experience in learning to read?
1726SOCRATES: Well, may not a man''possess''and yet not''have''knowledge in the sense of which I am speaking?
1726SOCRATES: Were we not saying that there are agents many and infinite, and patients many and infinite?
1726SOCRATES: What definition will be most consistent with our former views?
1726SOCRATES: What shall we say then?
1726SOCRATES: What was it?
1726SOCRATES: What was that, Theaetetus?
1726SOCRATES: What, then, shall we say of adding reason or explanation to right opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Where, then, is false opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Whereas the other side do not admit that they speak falsely?
1726SOCRATES: Which is probably correct-- for how can there be knowledge apart from definition and true opinion?
1726SOCRATES: Which, as we say, has no part in the attainment of truth any more than of being?
1726SOCRATES: Wisdom; are not men wise in that which they know?
1726SOCRATES: You can further observe whether they are like or unlike one another?
1726SOCRATES: You have heard the common explanation of the verb''to know''?
1726Shall I answer for him?
1726Shall I explain this matter to you or to Theaetetus?
1726Shall we say that the opinions of men are always true, or sometimes true and sometimes false?
1726Shall we say, that although he knows, he comes back to himself to learn what he already knows?
1726Such are the lawyers; will you have the companion picture of philosophers?
1726TERPSION: The dysentery, you mean?
1726TERPSION: The prophecy has certainly been fulfilled; but what was the conversation?
1726TERPSION: Was he alive or dead?
1726TERPSION: Where then?
1726THEAETETUS: About what?
1726THEAETETUS: And do you not agree in that view, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: And how would you amend the former statement?
1726THEAETETUS: And is not that, Socrates, nobly said?
1726THEAETETUS: And was that wrong?
1726THEAETETUS: And why should that be shameless?
1726THEAETETUS: As for example, Socrates...?
1726THEAETETUS: But if you avoid these expressions, Socrates, how will you ever argue at all?
1726THEAETETUS: But what puts you out of heart?
1726THEAETETUS: Can you give me any example of such a definition?
1726THEAETETUS: How can he?
1726THEAETETUS: How could it?
1726THEAETETUS: How do the two expressions differ?
1726THEAETETUS: How do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: How is that, and what profession do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: How so?
1726THEAETETUS: How?
1726THEAETETUS: I am glad to hear it, Socrates; but what if he was only in jest?
1726THEAETETUS: I should call all of them perceiving-- what other name could be given to them?
1726THEAETETUS: I should reply S and O. SOCRATES: That is the definition which you would give of the syllable?
1726THEAETETUS: In what manner?
1726THEAETETUS: Let us imagine such an aviary-- and what is to follow?
1726THEAETETUS: Pray what is it?
1726THEAETETUS: Tell me; what were you going to say just now, when you asked the question?
1726THEAETETUS: Then what is colour?
1726THEAETETUS: To what are you alluding?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What are they?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What do you mean?
1726THEAETETUS: What experience?
1726THEAETETUS: What hostages?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is it?
1726THEAETETUS: What is that?
1726THEAETETUS: What makes you say so?
1726THEAETETUS: What makes you say so?
1726THEAETETUS: What question?
1726THEAETETUS: What was it?
1726THEAETETUS: What?
1726THEAETETUS: What?
1726THEAETETUS: Who indeed, Socrates?
1726THEAETETUS: Who, Socrates, would dare to say so?
1726THEAETETUS: Why?
1726THEAETETUS: You mean that I mistook the letters and misspelt the syllables?
1726THEAETETUS: You mean to compare Socrates in health as a whole, and Socrates in sickness as a whole?
1726THEODORUS: How could I fail to observe all that, Socrates?
1726THEODORUS: How shall we answer, Theaetetus?
1726THEODORUS: How so?
1726THEODORUS: In what is the difference seen?
1726THEODORUS: In what way?
1726THEODORUS: Well, but is not Theaetetus better able to follow a philosophical enquiry than a great many men who have long beards?
1726THEODORUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1726THEODORUS: What do you mean?
1726THEODORUS: What is it?
1726THEODORUS: What is that?
1726THEODORUS: Who indeed?
1726Tell me, then, are not the organs through which you perceive warm and hard and light and sweet, organs of the body?
1726Tell me, then, what do you think of the notion that"All things are becoming"?''
1726Tell me, then, whether I am right in saying that you may learn a thing which at one time you did not know?
1726The mind, when occupied by herself with being, is said to have opinion-- shall we say that''Knowledge is true opinion''?
1726The multitude may not and do not agree in Protagoras''own thesis that''Man is the measure of all things;''and then who is to decide?
1726They would say, as I imagine-- Can that which is wholly other than something, have the same quality as that from which it differs?
1726Think: is not seeing perceiving, and is not sight perception?
1726Upon his own showing must not his''truth''depend on the number of suffrages, and be more or less true in proportion as he has more or fewer of them?
1726Was that the form in which the dream appeared to you?
1726We are often told that we should enquire into all things before we accept them;--with what limitations is this true?
1726Weary of asking''What is truth?''
1726Well, you ask, and how will Protagoras reinforce his position?
1726Were not you and Theodorus just now remarking very truly, that in discussions of this kind we may take our own time?
1726What are we to say in reply, Theaetetus?
1726What are we to think of time and space?
1726What do they mean when they say that all things are in motion?
1726What say you?
1726What say you?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726What then is knowledge?
1726When he says that''knowledge is in perception,''with what does he perceive?
1726Who can divide the nerves or great nervous centres from the mind which uses them?
1726Who can resist an idea which is presented to him in a general form in every moment of his life and of which he finds no instance to the contrary?
1726Who can separate the pains and pleasures of the mind from the pains and pleasures of the body?
1726Who is our judge?
1726Who is the judge or where is the spectator, having a right to control us?''
1726Why should we not go a step further still and doubt the existence of the senses of all things?
1726Why should we single out one of these abstractions to be the a priori condition of all the others?
1726Will you answer me a question:''Is not learning growing wiser about that which you learn?''
1726Will you have the companion picture of the philosopher, who is of our brotherhood; or shall we return to the argument?
1726Without further preface, but at the same time apologizing for his eagerness, he asks,''What is knowledge?''
1726Would an untrained man, for example, be as likely to know when he is going to have a fever, as the physician who attended him?
1726Yes; but did you observe that Protagoras bade me be serious, and complained of our getting up a laugh against him with the aid of a boy?
1726You remember?
1726and another, and another?
1726and of what sort do you mean?
1726and yet, Theaetetus, what are we going to do?
1726and, first of all, are we right in saying that syllables have a definition, but that letters have no definition?
1726can you tell me?
1726do not mistakes often happen?
1726for example, shall we say that not having learned, we do not hear the language of foreigners when they speak to us?
1726for what reason?
1726here are six dice; they are more than four and less than twelve;"more and also less,"would you not say?''
1726or hear and hear nothing?
1726or shall we aver that, seeing them, we must know them?
1726or shall we say that we not only hear, but know what they are saying?
1726or the one which he does not know to be the one which he knows?
1726or touch and touch nothing?
1726or will this be too much of a digression?
1726or will you bear to see him rejected, and not get into a passion if I take away your first- born?
1726or, if he knows neither of them, can he think that the one which he knows not is another which he knows not?
1726or, if he knows one and not the other, can he think the one which he knows to be the one which he does not know?
1726the sound of words or the sight of letters in a foreign tongue?''
1726what is temperance?
1726which of us will speak first?
7282Just as though--?
7282Quin sortem potius dare licet?
7282So may I love her?
7282Where do we dine?
7282Who says,''here,_ at my house_,''or who makes an offer?
7282''St, wo n''t you be off to utter perdition with you?
7282( THEUROPIDES_ turns towards him._) Now do you see it?
7282(_ Coming forward._) What are you about here?
7282(_ Enter a_ BOY,_ from the house._) But, why have you come out?
7282(_ He meditates._) Plague on it!--how?
7282(_ He takes his place._) Whence are you betaking yourself?
7282(_ Knocking again._) Is any one, is any one, I say, coming out here and going to open it?
7282(_ Pointing._) Who''s that asleep there?
7282(_ To the attendants, who immediately obey._) Where are you?
7282(_ starting up._) Where is he, I do entreat you?
7282A friend of his father, I suppose?
7282A house, say you?
7282A house?
7282A large fire?
7282Am I delaying_ to do so?_ THEU.
7282Am I to give heed to you, when you wo n''t to me?
7282Am I to go and call_ this_ person hither?
7282And do you believe him?
7282And does not this seem to you like the truth?
7282And have these_ two_ rascally captives really deceived me this day with their tricks?
7282And that I have that malady, that it''s necessary for me to be spit upon[ 2]?
7282And that after his father had departed hence abroad, he has been carousing here continually with your master?
7282And that he gave her her freedom?
7282And_ why_ that you are slighting me as a stranger, as though you had never known me?
7282Answer me; what has been done with this money?
7282Anything else?
7282Are we to be sent to gather faggots[ 15]?
7282Are we to go away from here?
7282Are you going to give me my interest this instant?
7282Are you going to give me the tares for me to take for the cattle?
7282Are you going to open it, I say?
7282Are you going to stop this instant, you dirty parasite?
7282Are you going to tell me that which I ask you?
7282Are you in the habit of eating brambles?
7282Are you satisfied if I bring back accomplished what you have enjoined?
7282Are you satisfied?
7282Are you_ all_ mad?
7282As yet, has your old gentleman discovered anything of these matters?
7282At what price did you purchase them?
7282Be off?
7282But am I not a wretched fellow, not at full speed to be running home?
7282But are you invited out anywhere to dinner?
7282But are you still standing there, and not doing what I advise you?
7282But do n''t you see?
7282But do you admit the same that he has disclosed to me?
7282But do you know of what sort?
7282But do you think that this was wrongly done?
7282But how''s this, that our next neighbour''s door makes a noise?
7282But is n''t this my friend who''s coming hither with his mistress?
7282But is this Ergasilus, that I see coming at a distance?
7282But of what appearance is your friend Philocrates?
7282But of what country was Stalagmus, at the time when he departed hence?
7282But tell me I pray you, are you my father?
7282But tell me, prithee, did you_ really_ tell him?
7282But what is the matter on account of which you blame me?
7282But what is the matter?
7282But what means this?
7282But whether is he in servitude to a private person or to the public[ 11]?
7282But why do n''t you put an end to this trifling?
7282But why so?
7282But why, you greatest of simpletons, have you taken refuge at the altar?
7282But, pray, why do you ask me?
7282But_ why_ delay to overwhelm this old gentleman Hegio with gladness?
7282By my troth, suppose I order him to be seized?
7282Can you not be tranquil in your mind, and do as I bid you?
7282Come now, would you rather be censured undeservedly, than be praised with truth?
7282Come now; examine my golden trinkets and my mantle; does this quite become me, Scapha?
7282Come, then, tell me who he is?
7282Coming?
7282Consider, please, if it was n''t well done; is your nose running_ still_?
7282Could I venture not to be on my guard against you, so as not to trust anything to you?
7282Could I venture to deceive you in deed or word even in jest only?
7282Credit him in what?
7282Denies it?
7282Did I not forbid you this day to utter anything false to me?
7282Did you see him?
7282Did you tell him anything about that which I was telling you?
7282Do I not know you?
7282Do I seem to you to be fairly drenched, my bubsy?
7282Do n''t you hear him?
7282Do n''t you hear that he''s looking for a stone?
7282Do n''t you hear--"They were_ once"?_ He seems hardly able to refrain from tears.
7282Do n''t you see him, how sad a countenance the old gentleman has?
7282Do n''t you see how his body is spotted all over with livid spots?
7282Do n''t you see the joints in the door?
7282Do n''t you see the painting, where one crow[ 12] is baffling two vultures?
7282Do n''t you see, this vestibule before the house, and the piazza, of what a compass it is?
7282Do n''t you think that I know what I''m deserving of?
7282Do pardon me?
7282Do you ask me again?
7282Do you ask the question?
7282Do you fancy yourself to be in the country[1]?
7282Do you give yourself airs, because your master''s so fond_ of you_?
7282Do you persist in reproaching me with being a slave-- a thing that has befallen me through the fortune of war?
7282Do you promise that?
7282Do you quite understand?
7282Do you say so?
7282Do you say that I am drenched, my bubsy?
7282Do you say that a mistress was purchased for Philolaches for thirty minae?
7282Do you say that this Philolaches, whoever he is, has been in the habit of drinking here together with your master?
7282Do you say that you are Philocrates?
7282Do you say that you were born a free man[ liber]?
7282Do you say, you whipp''d knave, that I am mad, and do you declare that I have followed my own father with spears?
7282Do you see him, with what a furious aspect he''s looking at you?
7282Do you see me?
7282Do you suppose that I''m saying this on my own account?
7282Do you suppose that this is the duty of a good servant, to be ruining both the estate and the son of his master?
7282Do you think I ought to be perfumed with unguents as well?
7282Do you think that I''m ashamed to own it, when you affirm it?
7282Do you wish any other message to be carried to your father?
7282Do you wish me to make you happy?
7282Do you wish to patch up a most clever piece with new daubing?
7282Do you, too, credit him?
7282Does he deny it?
7282Does he, then, confess about the guest?
7282Does it please me, do you ask me?
7282Does it please you,_ then_?
7282Does it seem to you to have been bought too dear?
7282Does n''t a young gentleman_ called_ Philolaches live in this house?
7282Eighty minae[ 1], you say, are owing for it?
7282Ergasilus says,"Do you really promise me this fine entertainment?"
7282Even though I am ashamed[ 3]?
7282Fly where?
7282For certain?
7282For certain?
7282For how much?
7282For sure?
7282For what reason do you suspect that this took place?
7282For what reason, or what new affair is this that you_ thus_ suddenly bring me_ news of_?
7282For what reason?
7282For what reason?
7282For, when, just now, I went away from here, I came to some young men in the Forum:"Good morrow,"said I;"whither are we going together to breakfast?"
7282Hallo, hallo!--where are you?
7282Has Tranio been causing any confusion?
7282Has anything new been going on at the Forum to- day?
7282Has he censured his son at all?
7282Has he done anything different to what sons of the noblest families do?
7282Has he given forty minae, too, to this person, to be as a deposit?
7282Have you been touching this house?
7282Have you been well all along?
7282Have you brought that captive son of his?
7282Have you recollected it by this?
7282Have you, you fellow most foul of all fellows, come here to burst yourself?
7282He grants pardon thus far; now then, what is to become of me?
7282He, a captive?
7282He, no relation_ to me_?
7282How am I a parasite?
7282How can I know?
7282How can that be?
7282How could I knock, if I did n''t touch it?
7282How did your son, in your absence, transact any business with me?
7282How do you know whether that may n''t happen to yourself sooner than to me?
7282How do you know?
7282How do you say?
7282How fare you?
7282How long since did that happen?
7282How much?
7282How now?
7282How now?
7282How say you, villain?
7282How say you, you hussy?
7282How say you?
7282How say you?
7282How shall I place confidence in my resources?
7282How so, pray?
7282How so?
7282How so?
7282How so?
7282How so?
7282How then?
7282How''s that?
7282How''s this?
7282How, where''s_ Hegio''s_ son?
7282I did n''t ask that-- were you a free man?
7282I''m to ask it of you, you mean?
7282I, intended building here?
7282I, making signs at you?
7282I, no relation_ to him_?
7282I, order it?
7282I, say that I''ll pay it?
7282If I have nothing to give, should you like me to give myself to flight[ 3]?
7282If you did right, you would n''t be troubling yourself about my concerns; do I trouble myself about yours?
7282In his dreams, then, you mean?
7282In real truth?
7282In what esteem is he held there?
7282In what neighbourhood did my son buy this house?
7282In what way?
7282In what words did you adjure?
7282Indeed, you town wit, you minion of the mob, do you throw the country in my teeth?
7282Is a full assurance given me that this was a slave in Elis, and that he is not Philocrates?
7282Is any one coming to open this door?
7282Is he arrived?
7282Is he living?
7282Is he really gone?
7282Is his father covetous?
7282Is it after this fashion that he will find his property well husbanded?
7282Is that settled by you?
7282Is the door shut in the daytime?
7282Is there any person here?
7282Is there any person who''d like to make gain of a little money, who could this day endure to take my place in being tortured?
7282Is there anything else?
7282Is this person now living?
7282Look there, do n''t you see how the villain sticks there?
7282Meanwhile, have you found no one to command for you the army that you mentioned as disbanded?
7282Must I not weep for him?
7282Must I not weep for such a young man?
7282My hand?
7282My son?
7282My son?
7282My_ slave_ Stalagmus, he that stole my son--?
7282No one lives_ there_?
7282Not owe it?
7282Now do you see_ them_?
7282Now, do you understand this?
7282Of ancient date?
7282Of what family is this Philocrates born?
7282Of what person?
7282Order what?
7282Ought you not to have ventured to say the harrower first?
7282Philolaches, say you?
7282Pray, what interest is this that he is asking for?
7282Pray, what is it that''s wrong?
7282Prithee, have n''t you got_ your_ cattle in the country for you to look to?
7282Prithee, how often must I tell you?
7282Prithee, was it you that called me?
7282Prithee, why did you stay there so long?
7282Prithee, why should I not care for it?
7282Say, now; do you deny that you are Tyndarus?
7282Say_ now_: what kind of a person did I leave my son, when I went away from here?
7282Should you like me to call him to you?
7282Should you like,_ then_, for me to hug you, and you me?
7282Since you, who are no relation, bear his misfortune so much amiss, what is it likely that I, a father, should do, whose only_ son_ he is?
7282Since, then, he is held in such great respect among the Eleans, as you tell of, what substance has he?--Of large amount?
7282Sleeping?
7282Slew_ him_?
7282So fully, that you will never find this to be otherwise; but where is he[ 11] now?
7282So long a time ago?
7282Surely he has got his cloak gathered up; what, I wonder, is he going to do?
7282Tell me then, these usual goings- on, what are they?
7282Tell me, have you said these words to me in good earnest?
7282Tell me, was he the person whom you sold to my father, who was given me for my private service?
7282Tell me, why so?
7282That Elean captive, too?
7282That I am mad?
7282The slave, too?
7282There now, was it that you wanted?
7282To what person?
7282To which one of the Gods?
7282To whom are you saying these things?
7282Tranio, what''s being done?
7282Treat your sick people[ 9] at home_ with that fare?_ Do you wish anything else?
7282Treat your sick people[ 9] at home_ with that fare?_ Do you wish anything else?
7282Troth now, prithee, does n''t he seem just suited to be a Banker-- a generation that''s most roguish?
7282Troth now, what has happened, prithee?
7282Villain, and do you dare speak ill of me, as well?
7282Was his father_ called_ Thesaurochrysonicocroesides?
7282Was it he that was knocking?
7282Was it thus that the old gentleman enjoined you when he went hence abroad?
7282Was there not good reason, indeed, for me to watch you carefully, whom I purchased with so large a sum of ready money?
7282We, make our escape?
7282Well now, have you one from Sarsina, if you have no woman of Umbria[ 6]?
7282Well now, how soon--?
7282Well now, pray, has he denied that the money was paid him?
7282Well now?
7282Well now?
7282Well, has he made purchase of the house next door here?
7282Well, how much did he agree to give for it?
7282Well; who''s calling me?
7282Were you, perchance, the midwife of my mother, since you dare to affirm this so boldly?
7282What Philolaches?
7282What about the money?
7282What about yourselves?
7282What about"Both I and you?"
7282What am I to do now, except_ put_ the lie upon this neighbour of ours next door?
7282What am I to do?
7282What am I to do?
7282What am I to gain, that I should tell a lie?
7282What are these people seeking at my house?
7282What are they peeping in for?
7282What are you about?
7282What are you about?
7282What are you dreaming about?
7282What are you talking about to yourself?
7282What business had he to come back here so soon?
7282What can I contrive?--what can I think of?
7282What did he say?
7282What do they want?
7282What do you mean?
7282What do you say,_ then_--?
7282What do you say?
7282What do you say?
7282What do you think?
7282What do you want me to humour you in?
7282What does he fear from us?
7282What good could it be to me if I told a lie?
7282What great thing is this fellow preparing to do, with such mighty threats?
7282What guilt is this_ of mine_?
7282What has he been dreaming of?
7282What has this harvest got to do with my bathing?
7282What have I done wrong?
7282What have you done?
7282What if I approach this madman?
7282What if I remain here until mid- day in preference?
7282What is fitting for me to do, when you, such a man as you are, are speaking false?
7282What is he asking for?
7282What is he himself?
7282What is his father?
7282What is it I hear of you?
7282What is it you are saying to yourself?
7282What is it you mean?
7282What is it you say?
7282What is it you say?
7282What is it, pray?
7282What is it, pray?
7282What is it?
7282What is it?
7282What is my opinion?
7282What is the matter?
7282What is this crime, or who committed it?
7282What joy is this, that he,_ thus_ joyous, is going to impart to me?
7282What matter is agitating you, Tranio?
7282What money''s this?
7282What mortal among mortals is there more wretched than myself?
7282What need is there for that which he does n''t want as his own, to be shown him still?
7282What need is there of talking?
7282What need is there of words?
7282What need is there?
7282What now are you of opinion ought to be done?
7282What now, since I''ve kept my word with you, and have caused him to be restored back again to freedom?
7282What now?
7282What now?
7282What now?
7282What passport[ 5]?
7282What person is it that has come_ so_ near to our house?
7282What person?
7282What person?
7282What pray, or on what day?
7282What reason is there, then, that if he does n''t return, you should not pay me twenty minae for him?
7282What say you_ to this_?
7282What shall I deny, or what confess?
7282What shall I do now?
7282What shall I do with him then, my dear?
7282What shall I say?--what shall I talk of?
7282What story''s this,_ I wonder_?
7282What the plague business have you with me or with, what I do?
7282What then, if I go fetch some men?
7282What threatening is this?
7282What was his name?
7282What would he do, if you were at a greater distance off?
7282What would you have to be done?
7282What would you have?
7282What''s his name?
7282What''s owing him?
7282What''s the matter here?
7282What''s the matter with you?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s the matter?
7282What''s to become of the rest of those who are in love with you?
7282What''s your opinion of this bargain?
7282What, I reproach you with it?
7282What, I?
7282What, I?
7282What, I?
7282What, I?
7282What, because I say that I''ll go to dinner for you?
7282What, did you touch the door?
7282What, do you still linger?
7282What, was n''t it hauled ashore[ 4] in safety?
7282What, you touched it?
7282What, you vulture, do you suppose that for your sake I''m going to set my house on fire?
7282What,_ my_ lad, are you off then?
7282What?
7282What?
7282What_ of all this_?
7282Whence come you?
7282Whence_ shall_ it_ be_?
7282Where am I going, do you know?
7282Where am I to be?
7282Where are those persons whom I ordered to be brought out of doors here, before the house?
7282Where is Philolaches?
7282Where is it?
7282Which he gave you by way of deposit?
7282Which would you?
7282Whip- scoundrel, laughing at_ me_ still?
7282Whither am I to say, now, that that man has betaken himself from the house out of doors?
7282Whither are you betaking yourself?
7282Whither should we escape?
7282Who has seen him?
7282Who is it that''s speaking?
7282Who is this?
7282Who says so?
7282Who was it did this?
7282Who''s calling Ergasilus?
7282Whom then, prithee?
7282Why are you beating me?
7282Why are you breaking down that door?
7282Why are you making signs[ 8] at me?

3052Aye; but how comes it then, my good friend, that you bid me eat and be merry?
3052BUT WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY DIVIDING THE UNIVERSE INTO UNEQUAL PARTS?

3052For how can it but be absurd to blame those who nourish these creatures, if he commends Providence which created them?
3052For how can it possibly be frigid in others to praise any for such things, and not ridiculous for him to rejoice and glory in them?
3052For how could he expect to gain the knowledge of other things, who has not been able to comprehend the principal element even of himself?
3052For how is it possible that he should be susceptible of dying on the land, who is destined to die at sea?

3052How then did there go forth from Sparta to Plataea a thousand and five men, having every one of them with him seven Helots?
3052How then do they extricate themselves out of these difficulties?
3052How then is it, that they admit and allow Nature, soul, and living creature?

3052If Rhetoric is the power of persuasive speaking, who more than Homer depended on this power?
3052If hot, how does it afterwards make it cold?
3052If then it is so pleasant to do good to a few, how are their hearts dilated with joy who are benefactors to whole cities, provinces, and kingdoms?
3052If we find out Homer supplying the beginnings and the seeds of all these, is he not, beyond all others, worthy of admiration?
3052In what then is this to be preferred to indifferent things?
3052Indeed what wonder is it if, when the foundation shakes, the superstructure totter?
3052Is a prudent torture a thing desirable?

3052Nature, sentiments concerning; what is?
3052Nay then, said Theon, if you approve so highly of this subject, why do you not set in hand to it?
3052Nay, what shall a man say, when he sees the dull unlearned fellows after supper minding such pleasures as have not the least relation to the body?

3052Now what is more contrary to kindling than refrigeration, or to rarefaction than condensation?
3052Now what man ever was there that lived the worse for this?

3052Of the second, Why lovers are inclined to poetry?
3052Or Pelopidas the tyrant Leontiadas?
3052Or Phormio, when he thought he had treated Castor and Pollux at his house?
3052Or Themistocles the engagement at Salamis?

3052Or is there any solid reason that can be given to prove Adonis to be the same with Bacchus?
3052Or may such discourse be otherwise allowed, and must they be thought unseemly problems to be proposed at table?
3052Or rather, since the palm is common to both, may it be, as if lots had been cast, given to either, according to the inclination he chances to have?
3052Or shall we be afraid to oppose that divine oracle to Epicurus?

3052Or who was ever so long eating as those that are besieged suffer hunger?

3052Say you so?
3052Shall we reckon a soul to be a small expense?

3052The exactness of motions and harmony are definite, but the errors either in playing upon the harp, singing, or dancing, who can comprehend?
3052The first question is, Whether at table it is allowable to philosophize?

3052Then said my brother cunningly: And do you imagine that any, upon a sudden, can produce any probable reasons?
3052Then, said I, do you believe this to be my opinion?

3052What then, said Florus, shall we say that salt is termed divine for that reason?
3052What then, shall we suffer those rhetoricians to be thought to have hit the mark when they bring arguments only from probabilities and conjectures?

3052wherein differ they from what Plato says, that the divine nature is remote from both joy and grief?
1672''And do you think that a man who is unable to help himself is in a good condition?''
1672''But is not rhetoric a fine thing?''
1672''But what part?''
1672''Certainly,''he will answer,''for is not health the greatest good?
1672''Do you mean to say that the rhetoricians are esteemed flatterers?''
1672''Health first, beauty next, wealth third,''in the words of the old song, or how would you rank them?
1672''What do you mean?''
1672''What is cookery?''
1672''What is rhetoric?''
1672''What is the art of Rhetoric?''
1672''What is the use of coming to you, Gorgias?''
1672''Who is Gorgias?''
1672''Who knows,''as Euripides says,''whether life may not be death, and death life?''
1672''Why will you continue splitting words?
1672''Why, have they not great power, and can they not do whatever they desire?''
1672), with the making of garments?
1672All this is a hindrance to them; there are the clothes of the judges and the clothes of the judged.--What is to be done?
1672Am I not right Callicles?
1672Am I not right in my recollection?
1672Am I not right?
1672And I am going to ask-- what is this power of persuasion which is given by rhetoric, and about what?
1672And I would have you observe, that I am right in asking this further question: If I asked,''What sort of a painter is Zeuxis?''
1672And I would still ask, whether you say that pleasure and good are the same, or whether there is some pleasure which is not a good?
1672And as Callicles is about to enter public life, should we not examine him?
1672And do you consider wealth to be the greatest good of man?
1672And do you mean to say also that if he meets with retribution and punishment he will still be happy?
1672And if he asked again:''What is the art of calculation?''
1672And if he further said,''Concerned with what?''
1672And is not the soul which has an order of her own better than that which has no order?
1672And is not the virtue of each thing dependent on order or arrangement?
1672And is the pleasant to be pursued for the sake of the good?
1672And must he not be courageous?
1672And of harp- playing and dithyrambic poetry in general, what would you say?
1672And suppose, again, I were to say that astronomy is only words-- he would ask,''Words about what, Socrates?''
1672And that is pleasant at the presence of which we are pleased, and that is good at the presence of which we are good?
1672And that which is orderly is temperate?
1672And that which makes a thing good is the proper order inhering in each thing?
1672And the soul which has order is orderly?
1672And the temperate soul is good?
1672And then he will be sure to go on and ask,''What good?
1672And then he would proceed to ask:''Words about what?''
1672And to be itching and always scratching?
1672And to indulge unnatural desires, if they are abundantly satisfied?
1672And we are good, and all good things whatever are good when some virtue is present in us or them?
1672And what do you say of that other rhetoric which addresses the Athenian assembly and the assemblies of freemen in other states?
1672And what is my sort?
1672And what knowledge can be nobler?
1672And when I ask, Who are you?
1672And who are you?
1672And will not the temperate man do what is proper, both in relation to the gods and to men;--for he would not be temperate if he did not?
1672And yet there is an inconsistency: for should not Socrates too have taught the citizens better than to put him to death?
1672And yet, on your principle, what justice or reason is there in your refusal?
1672And you would admit that to drink, when you are thirsty, is pleasant?
1672Are the superior and better and stronger the same or different?
1672Are you disposed to admit that?
1672Are you of the same opinion still?
1672As we likewise enquire, What will become of them after death?
1672At your age, Socrates, are you not ashamed to be catching at words and chuckling over some verbal slip?
1672Both the wise man and the brave man we allow to be good?
1672But I shall not tell him whether rhetoric is a fine thing or not, until I have first answered,''What is rhetoric?''
1672But do you really suppose that I or any other human being denies that some pleasures are good and others bad?
1672But if there were no future, might he not still be happy in the performance of an action which was attended only by a painful death?
1672But if we, Polus, are right, do you see what follows, or shall we draw out the consequences in form?
1672But is he as ignorant of just and unjust as he is of medicine or building?
1672But is not virtue something different from saving and being saved?
1672But please to refresh my memory a little; did you say--''in an unjust attempt to make himself a tyrant''?
1672But tell me, Gorgias, what are the best?
1672But to return to our argument:--Does not a man cease from thirsting and from the pleasure of drinking at the same moment?
1672But what do you mean by the better?
1672But what reason is there in this?
1672But where are the orators among whom you find the latter?
1672But who would undertake a public building, if he had never had a teacher of the art of building, and had never constructed a building before?
1672But why, if I have a suspicion, do I ask instead of telling you?
1672But, my good friend, where is the refutation?
1672CALLICLES: And do you think, Socrates, that a man who is thus defenceless is in a good position?
1672CALLICLES: And is not that just the provoking thing?
1672CALLICLES: And what difference does that make?
1672CALLICLES: And what does our friend Socrates, of Foxton, say-- does he assent to this, or not?
1672CALLICLES: And you are the man who can not speak unless there is some one to answer?
1672CALLICLES: Are you not ashamed, Socrates, of introducing such topics into the argument?
1672CALLICLES: Can not you finish without my help, either talking straight on, or questioning and answering yourself?
1672CALLICLES: Do you want me to agree with you?
1672CALLICLES: I suppose that you mean health and strength?
1672CALLICLES: Quite so, Socrates; and they are really fools, for how can a man be happy who is the servant of anything?
1672CALLICLES: Tell me, Chaerephon, is Socrates in earnest, or is he joking?
1672CALLICLES: Well, but how does that prove Pericles''badness?
1672CALLICLES: What do you mean by his''ruling over himself''?
1672CALLICLES: What do you mean?
1672CALLICLES: What do you mean?
1672CALLICLES: What is the matter, Chaerephon-- does Socrates want to hear Gorgias?
1672CALLICLES: What is your meaning, Socrates?
1672CALLICLES: Why not give the name yourself, Socrates?
1672CALLICLES: Why?
1672CALLICLES: Yes, I do; but what is the inference?
1672CALLICLES: Yes, but why talk of men who are good for nothing?
1672CALLICLES: Yes, certainly; but what is your drift?
1672CHAEREPHON: And do you, Polus, think that you can answer better than Gorgias?
1672CHAEREPHON: And if he had the skill of Aristophon the son of Aglaophon, or of his brother Polygnotus, what ought we to call him?
1672CHAEREPHON: Then we should be right in calling him a physician?
1672CHAEREPHON: What do you mean?
1672CHAEREPHON: What question?
1672CHAEREPHON: What shall I ask him?
1672Can anything be more irrational, my friends, than this?
1672Consider:--You would say that to suffer punishment is another name for being justly corrected when you do wrong?
1672Could he be said to regard even their pleasure?
1672Did he perform with any view to the good of his hearers?
1672Did not the very persons whom he was serving ostracize him, in order that they might not hear his voice for ten years?
1672Did they employ these advantages with a view to philosophy, gathering from every nature some addition to their store of knowledge?
1672Did you not say, that suffering wrong was more evil, and doing wrong more disgraceful?
1672Do I make any impression on you, and are you coming over to the opinion that the orderly are happier than the intemperate?
1672Do I not convince you that the opposite is the truth?
1672Do they suppose that the rule of justice is the rule of the stronger or of the better?''
1672Do we not often hear the novel writer censured for attempting to convey a lesson to the minds of his readers?
1672Do you know any other effect of rhetoric over and above that of producing persuasion?
1672Do you laugh, Polus?
1672Do you mean that your art produces the greatest good?
1672Do you not agree?
1672Do you say''Yes''or''No''to that?
1672Do you understand?
1672Does Callicles agree to this division?
1672Does not that appear to be an art which seeks only pleasure, Callicles, and thinks of nothing else?
1672Does not the art of making money?
1672Does not the art of medicine?
1672For all our life long we are talking with ourselves:--What is thought but speech?
1672For do not we too accuse as well as excuse ourselves?
1672For on what principle of justice did Xerxes invade Hellas, or his father the Scythians?
1672For that would not be right, Polus; but I shall be happy to answer, if you will ask me, What part of flattery is rhetoric?
1672For will any one ever acknowledge that he does not know, or can not teach, the nature of justice?
1672For you were saying just now that the courageous and the wise are the good-- would you not say so?
1672For, first, you defined the superior to be the stronger, and then the wiser, and now something else;--what DO you mean?
1672GORGIAS: A part of what, Socrates?
1672GORGIAS: Then why not ask him yourself?
1672GORGIAS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1672GORGIAS: What is coming, Socrates?
1672GORGIAS: What matter?
1672GORGIAS: Yes, I know the song; but what is your drift?
1672Have I not told you that the superior is the better?''
1672Have they not been invented wholly for the sake of pleasure?
1672Have they not very great power in states?
1672Have we not already admitted many times over that such is the duty of a public man?
1672How are they to be?
1672How is the inconsistency to be explained?
1672How then can pleasure be the same as good, or pain as evil?
1672How will you answer them?
1672How would Gorgias explain this phenomenon?
1672I mean to ask whether a man will escape injustice if he has only the will to escape, or must he have provided himself with the power?
1672I mean to say-- Does he who teaches anything persuade men of that which he teaches or not?
1672I mean, for example, that if a man strikes, there must be something which is stricken?
1672I was saying that to do is worse than to suffer injustice?
1672If we admit what has been just now said, every man ought in every way to guard himself against doing wrong, for he will thereby suffer great evil?
1672In the first division the question is asked-- What is rhetoric?
1672In the first place, what say you of flute- playing?
1672Is not suffering injustice a greater evil?
1672Is not that true?
1672Is not this a fact?
1672Is not this true?
1672Is not this, as they say, to begin with the big jar when you are learning the potter''s art; which is a foolish thing?
1672Is that the paradox which, as you say, can not be refuted?
1672Is the final result, that he gets rid of them both together?
1672Is there any comparison between him and the pleader?
1672Is this true?
1672Look at the matter in this way:--In respect of a man''s estate, do you see any greater evil than poverty?
1672May I ask then whether you will answer in turn and have your words put to the proof?
1672May I assume this to be your opinion?
1672May not the service of God, which is the more disinterested, be in like manner the higher?
1672Might not the novelist, too, make an ideal, or rather many ideals of social life, better than a thousand sermons?
1672Must not the defence be one which will avert the greatest of human evils?
1672Must not the very opposite be true,--if he is to be like the tyrant in his injustice, and to have influence with him?
1672Must we not try and make them as good as possible?
1672Nay, did not Pericles make the citizens worse?
1672Nay, will he not rather do all the evil which he can and escape?
1672No other answer can I give, Callicles dear; have you any?
1672Or do I fail to persuade you, and, however many tales I rehearse to you, do you continue of the same opinion still?
1672Or must the pupil know these things and come to you knowing them before he can acquire the art of rhetoric?
1672Or will you be unable to teach him rhetoric at all, unless he knows the truth of these things first?
1672Or would you venture to say, that they too are happy, if they only get enough of what they want?
1672Ought he not to have the name which is given to his brother?
1672Ought the physician then to have a larger share of meats and drinks?
1672POLUS: An experience in what?
1672POLUS: And I should say neither I, nor any man: would you yourself, for example, suffer rather than do injustice?
1672POLUS: And are the good rhetoricians meanly regarded in states, under the idea that they are flatterers?
1672POLUS: And are those of whom I spoke wretches?
1672POLUS: And can not you tell at once, and without having an acquaintance with him, whether a man is happy?
1672POLUS: And do even you, Socrates, seriously believe what you are now saying about rhetoric?
1672POLUS: And do you think that he is happy or miserable?
1672POLUS: And if able to gratify others, must not rhetoric be a fine thing?
1672POLUS: And is not that a great power?
1672POLUS: And noble or ignoble?
1672POLUS: And so you think that he who slays any one whom he pleases, and justly slays him, is pitiable and wretched?
1672POLUS: Ask:-- CHAEREPHON: My question is this: If Gorgias had the skill of his brother Herodicus, what ought we to call him?
1672POLUS: At any rate you will allow that he who is unjustly put to death is wretched, and to be pitied?
1672POLUS: But do you not think, Socrates, that you have been sufficiently refuted, when you say that which no human being will allow?
1672POLUS: But is it the greatest?
1672POLUS: But they do what they think best?
1672POLUS: Did I not hear you say that rhetoric was a sort of experience?
1672POLUS: Does rhetoric seem to you to be an experience?
1672POLUS: How can that be, Socrates?
1672POLUS: How not regarded?
1672POLUS: How two questions?
1672POLUS: I will ask and do you answer?
1672POLUS: I will ask; and do you answer me, Socrates, the same question which Gorgias, as you suppose, is unable to answer: What is rhetoric?
1672POLUS: In either case is he not equally to be envied?
1672POLUS: In what?
1672POLUS: Of what profession?
1672POLUS: Then are cookery and rhetoric the same?
1672POLUS: Then clearly, Socrates, you would say that you did not even know whether the great king was a happy man?
1672POLUS: Then surely they do as they will?
1672POLUS: Then what, in your opinion, is rhetoric?
1672POLUS: Then would you rather suffer than do injustice?
1672POLUS: Then you would not wish to be a tyrant?
1672POLUS: Then, according to your doctrine, the said Archelaus is miserable?
1672POLUS: Were you not saying just now that he is wretched?
1672POLUS: What do you mean, Socrates?
1672POLUS: What do you mean?
1672POLUS: What do you mean?
1672POLUS: What does that matter if I answer well enough for you?
1672POLUS: What makes you say so, Socrates?
1672POLUS: What sort of an art is cookery?
1672POLUS: What then?
1672POLUS: What thing?
1672POLUS: Why''forbear''?
1672POLUS: Why, did I not say that it was the noblest of arts?
1672POLUS: Why, have you not already said that they do as they think best?
1672POLUS: Will you enumerate them?
1672POLUS: You are hard of refutation, Socrates, but might not a child refute that statement?
1672POLUS: You see, I presume, that Archelaus the son of Perdiccas is now the ruler of Macedonia?
1672Perhaps, however, you do not even now understand what I mean?
1672Polus asks,''What thing?''
1672SOCRATES: A useful thing, then?
1672SOCRATES: About that you and I may be supposed to agree?
1672SOCRATES: Again, if we take the arts of which we were just now speaking:--do not arithmetic and the arithmeticians teach us the properties of number?
1672SOCRATES: Again, in a man''s bodily frame, you would say that the evil is weakness and disease and deformity?
1672SOCRATES: Although he is not a physician:--is he?
1672SOCRATES: And I affirm that he is most miserable, and that those who are punished are less miserable-- are you going to refute this proposition also?
1672SOCRATES: And a foolish man too?
1672SOCRATES: And according to the argument the rhetorician must be a just man?
1672SOCRATES: And are not all things either good or evil, or intermediate and indifferent?
1672SOCRATES: And are not just men gentle, as Homer says?--or are you of another mind?
1672SOCRATES: And are not these pleasures or goods present to those who rejoice-- if they do rejoice?
1672SOCRATES: And are only the cowards pained at the approach of their enemies, or are the brave also pained?
1672SOCRATES: And are they equally pained?
1672SOCRATES: And are they not better pleased at the enemy''s departure?
1672SOCRATES: And are we late for a feast?
1672SOCRATES: And are we to say that you are able to make other men rhetoricians?
1672SOCRATES: And as for the Muse of Tragedy, that solemn and august personage-- what are her aspirations?
1672SOCRATES: And deformity or disgrace may be equally measured by the opposite standard of pain and evil?
1672SOCRATES: And did you ever see a sensible man rejoicing or sorrowing?
1672SOCRATES: And did you never see a foolish child rejoicing?
1672SOCRATES: And do not the poets in the theatres seem to you to be rhetoricians?
1672SOCRATES: And do not those who rightly punish others, punish them in accordance with a certain rule of justice?
1672SOCRATES: And do you call the fools and cowards good men?
1672SOCRATES: And do you mean by the better the same as the superior?
1672SOCRATES: And do you not imagine that the soul likewise has some evil of her own?
1672SOCRATES: And do you, Callicles, seriously maintain what you are saying?
1672SOCRATES: And does he have and not have good and happiness, and their opposites, evil and misery, in a similar alternation?
1672SOCRATES: And does not gymnastic also treat of discourse concerning the good or evil condition of the body?
1672SOCRATES: And does not the same argument hold of the soul, my good sir?
1672SOCRATES: And does not the same hold in all other cases?
1672SOCRATES: And further, that to suffer punishment is the way to be released from this evil?
1672SOCRATES: And he has the second place, who is delivered from vice?
1672SOCRATES: And he is to be thirsting and drinking?
1672SOCRATES: And he may have strength and weakness in the same way, by fits?
1672SOCRATES: And he who has joy is good?
1672SOCRATES: And he who has learned medicine is a physician, in like manner?
1672SOCRATES: And he who has learned music a musician?
1672SOCRATES: And he who is in pain is evil?
1672SOCRATES: And he who is just may be supposed to do what is just?
1672SOCRATES: And he who punishes rightly, punishes justly?
1672SOCRATES: And if a man burns, there is something which is burned?
1672SOCRATES: And if he burns in excess or so as to cause pain, the thing burned will be burned in the same way?
1672SOCRATES: And if he cuts, the same argument holds-- there will be something cut?
1672SOCRATES: And if he is hungry, or has any other desire, does he not cease from the desire and the pleasure at the same moment?
1672SOCRATES: And if pleasantly, then also happily?
1672SOCRATES: And if the cutting be great or deep or such as will cause pain, the cut will be of the same nature?
1672SOCRATES: And if the most disgraceful, then also the worst?
1672SOCRATES: And if the striker strikes violently or quickly, that which is struck will be struck violently or quickly?
1672SOCRATES: And if they were more savage, must they not have been more unjust and inferior?
1672SOCRATES: And if what is honourable, then what is good, for the honourable is either pleasant or useful?
1672SOCRATES: And in pain?
1672SOCRATES: And in the same way there are good pains and there are evil pains?
1672SOCRATES: And in the same way, he who has learned what is just is just?
1672SOCRATES: And in the sentence which you have just uttered, the word''thirsty''implies pain?
1672SOCRATES: And in this way he will have accomplished, as you and your friends would say, the end of becoming a great man and not suffering injury?
1672SOCRATES: And is he not then delivered from the greatest evil?
1672SOCRATES: And is not that the sort of thing, Callicles, which we were just now describing as flattery?
1672SOCRATES: And is not the same true of all similar arts, as, for example, the art of playing the lyre at festivals?
1672SOCRATES: And is not this universally true?
1672SOCRATES: And is the''having learned''the same as''having believed,''and are learning and belief the same things?
1672SOCRATES: And is this notion true of one soul, or of two or more?
1672SOCRATES: And it has been proved to be true?
1672SOCRATES: And justice punishes us, and makes us more just, and is the medicine of our vice?
1672SOCRATES: And justice, if the best, gives the greatest pleasure or advantage or both?
1672SOCRATES: And may not the same be said of the beauty of knowledge?
1672SOCRATES: And most disgraceful either because most painful and causing excessive pain, or most hurtful, or both?
1672SOCRATES: And music is concerned with the composition of melodies?
1672SOCRATES: And must not the just man always desire to do what is just?
1672SOCRATES: And must we not have the same end in view in the treatment of our city and citizens?
1672SOCRATES: And not to suffer, is to perpetuate the evil?
1672SOCRATES: And now injustice and all evil in the soul has been admitted by us to be most disgraceful?
1672SOCRATES: And now let us have from you, Gorgias, the truth about rhetoric: which you would admit( would you not?)
1672SOCRATES: And now, which will you do, ask or answer?
1672SOCRATES: And of two deformed things, that which exceeds in deformity or disgrace, exceeds either in pain or evil-- must it not be so?
1672SOCRATES: And ought not the better to have a larger share?
1672SOCRATES: And ought we not to choose and use the good pleasures and pains?
1672SOCRATES: And punishment is an evil?
1672SOCRATES: And since they are superior, the laws which are made by them are by nature good?
1672SOCRATES: And suffering implies an agent?
1672SOCRATES: And that is now discovered to be more evil?
1672SOCRATES: And that which exceeds most in hurtfulness will be the greatest of evils?
1672SOCRATES: And that which is just has been admitted to be honourable?
1672SOCRATES: And the beneficial are those which do some good, and the hurtful are those which do some evil?
1672SOCRATES: And the foolish man and the coward to be evil?
1672SOCRATES: And the foolish; so it would seem?
1672SOCRATES: And the greater disgrace is the greater evil?
1672SOCRATES: And the one which had pleasure in view was just a vulgar flattery:--was not that another of our conclusions?
1672SOCRATES: And the other had in view the greatest improvement of that which was ministered to, whether body or soul?
1672SOCRATES: And the reason for asking this second question would be, that there are other painters besides, who paint many other figures?
1672SOCRATES: And the same is true of a ship?
1672SOCRATES: And the same may be said of the human body?
1672SOCRATES: And the suffering to him who is stricken is of the same nature as the act of him who strikes?
1672SOCRATES: And the word''drinking''is expressive of pleasure, and of the satisfaction of the want?
1672SOCRATES: And there is also''having believed''?
1672SOCRATES: And therefore he acts justly?
1672SOCRATES: And therefore persuade us of them?
1672SOCRATES: And therefore to be unjust and intemperate, and cowardly and ignorant, is more painful than to be poor and sick?
1672SOCRATES: And thirst, too, is painful?
1672SOCRATES: And this speech is addressed to a crowd of people?
1672SOCRATES: And this you would call injustice and ignorance and cowardice, and the like?
1672SOCRATES: And those who are in pain have evil or sorrow present with them?
1672SOCRATES: And to restrain her from her appetites is to chastise her?
1672SOCRATES: And to understand that about which they speak?
1672SOCRATES: And to whom do we go with the unjust and intemperate?
1672SOCRATES: And was not Pericles a shepherd of men?
1672SOCRATES: And was not punishment said by us to be a deliverance from the greatest of evils, which is vice?
1672SOCRATES: And were you not saying just now, that some courage implied knowledge?
1672SOCRATES: And what art frees us from disease?
1672SOCRATES: And what art will protect us from suffering injustice, if not wholly, yet as far as possible?
1672SOCRATES: And what do you say of doing injustice?
1672SOCRATES: And what do you say of his father, Meles the harp- player?
1672SOCRATES: And what do you say of the choral art and of dithyrambic poetry?--are not they of the same nature?
1672SOCRATES: And what from vice and injustice?
1672SOCRATES: And what would you consider this to be?
1672SOCRATES: And what would you say of the soul?
1672SOCRATES: And when he has got rid of his ophthalmia, has he got rid of the health of his eyes too?
1672SOCRATES: And when we kill a man we kill him or exile him or despoil him of his goods, because, as we think, it will conduce to our good?
1672SOCRATES: And which of the evils is the most disgraceful?--Is not the most disgraceful of them injustice, and in general the evil of the soul?
1672SOCRATES: And which rejoiced most at the departure of the enemy, the coward or the brave?
1672SOCRATES: And why?
1672SOCRATES: And will not the patient suffer that which the agent does, and will not the suffering have the quality of the action?
1672SOCRATES: And will therefore never be willing to do injustice?
1672SOCRATES: And will you also do me the favour of saying whether man is an animal?
1672SOCRATES: And would he be the happier man in his bodily condition, who is healed, or who never was out of health?
1672SOCRATES: And would you maintain that if a fool does what he thinks best, this is a good, and would you call this great power?
1672SOCRATES: And would you not allow that all just things are honourable in so far as they are just?
1672SOCRATES: And would you prefer a greater evil or a greater dishonour to a less one?
1672SOCRATES: And would you say that courage differed from pleasure?
1672SOCRATES: And would you say that pleasure and knowledge are the same, or not the same?
1672SOCRATES: And would you still say that the evil are evil by reason of the presence of evil?
1672SOCRATES: And yet rhetoric makes men able to speak?
1672SOCRATES: And yet those who have learned as well as those who have believed are persuaded?
1672SOCRATES: And you said the opposite?
1672SOCRATES: And you were speaking of courage and knowledge as two things different from one another?
1672SOCRATES: And you would call sounds and music beautiful for the same reason?
1672SOCRATES: And you, like him, invite any one to ask you about anything which he pleases, and you will know how to answer him?
1672SOCRATES: And, therefore, when Pericles first began to speak in the assembly, the Athenians were not so good as when he spoke last?
1672SOCRATES: Are these indifferent things done for the sake of the good, or the good for the sake of the indifferent?
1672SOCRATES: But can every man choose what pleasures are good and what are evil, or must he have art or knowledge of them in detail?
1672SOCRATES: But can you tell me why you disapprove of such a power?
1672SOCRATES: But does he do what he wills if he does what is evil?
1672SOCRATES: But does not the art of medicine, which we were just now mentioning, also make men able to understand and speak about the sick?
1672SOCRATES: But have not you and the world already agreed that to do injustice is more disgraceful than to suffer?
1672SOCRATES: But he does not cease from good and evil at the same moment, as you have admitted: do you still adhere to what you said?
1672SOCRATES: But he surely can not have the same eyes well and sound at the same time?
1672SOCRATES: But if he is to have more power of persuasion than the physician, he will have greater power than he who knows?
1672SOCRATES: But if not in pain, then not in both?
1672SOCRATES: But if there had been no one but Zeuxis who painted them, then you would have answered very well?
1672SOCRATES: But if they were good, then clearly each of them must have made the citizens better instead of worse?
1672SOCRATES: But is the being healed a pleasant thing, and are those who are being healed pleased?
1672SOCRATES: But not the evil?
1672SOCRATES: But now we are affirming that the aforesaid rhetorician will never have done injustice at all?
1672SOCRATES: But surely the wise and brave are the good, and the foolish and the cowardly are the bad?
1672SOCRATES: But then again, what was the observation which you just now made, about doing and suffering wrong?
1672SOCRATES: But what if the itching is not confined to the head?
1672SOCRATES: But whether rulers or subjects will they or will they not have more than themselves, my friend?
1672SOCRATES: But will he also escape from doing injury?
1672SOCRATES: But will you answer?
1672SOCRATES: But you admitted, that when in pain a man might also have pleasure?
1672SOCRATES: Consider again:--Where there is an agent, must there not also be a patient?
1672SOCRATES: Do I understand you to mean what I mean by the term''benefited''?
1672SOCRATES: Do men appear to you to will that which they do, or to will that further end for the sake of which they do a thing?
1672SOCRATES: Do you mean that you will teach him to gain the ears of the multitude on any subject, and this not by instruction but by persuasion?
1672SOCRATES: Do you mean what sort of an art?
1672SOCRATES: Do you never hear our professors of education speaking in this inconsistent manner?
1672SOCRATES: Do you see the inference:--that pleasure and pain are simultaneous, when you say that being thirsty, you drink?
1672SOCRATES: Does not a man cease from his thirst and from his pleasure in drinking at the same time?
1672SOCRATES: Enough: And did you ever see a coward in battle?
1672SOCRATES: For in my opinion there is no profit in a man''s life if his body is in an evil plight-- in that case his life also is evil: am I not right?
1672SOCRATES: Go back now to our former admissions.--Did you say that to hunger, I mean the mere state of hunger, was pleasant or painful?
1672SOCRATES: Have the wise man and the fool, the brave and the coward, joy and pain in nearly equal degrees?
1672SOCRATES: I am glad to hear it; answer me in like manner about rhetoric: with what is rhetoric concerned?
1672SOCRATES: I know; but still the actual hunger is painful: am I not right?
1672SOCRATES: I said also that the wicked are miserable, and you refuted me?
1672SOCRATES: I suppose that he is affected by them, and gets rid of them in turns?
1672SOCRATES: I understand you to say, if I am not mistaken, that the honourable is not the same as the good, or the disgraceful as the evil?
1672SOCRATES: If then there be anything which a man has and has not at the same time, clearly that can not be good and evil-- do we agree?
1672SOCRATES: Is it not a fact that injustice, and the doing of injustice, is the greatest of evils?
1672SOCRATES: Is not this the conclusion, if the premises are not disproven?
1672SOCRATES: Is that a question or the beginning of a speech?
1672SOCRATES: Justly or unjustly, do you mean?
1672SOCRATES: Laws and institutions also have no beauty in them except in so far as they are useful or pleasant or both?
1672SOCRATES: Listen to me, then, while I recapitulate the argument:--Is the pleasant the same as the good?
1672SOCRATES: Men who do any of these things do them for the sake of the good?
1672SOCRATES: Must I then say with Epicharmus,''Two men spoke before, but now one shall be enough''?
1672SOCRATES: Nay, I said a part of flattery; if at your age, Polus, you can not remember, what will you do by- and- by, when you get older?
1672SOCRATES: Need I adduce any more instances, or would you agree that all wants or desires are painful?
1672SOCRATES: No matter; then the cowards, and not only the brave, rejoice?
1672SOCRATES: Now I want to know about rhetoric in the same way;--is rhetoric the only art which brings persuasion, or do other arts have the same effect?
1672SOCRATES: Now, what art is there which delivers us from poverty?
1672SOCRATES: Of discourse concerning diseases?
1672SOCRATES: On the other hand, if the unjust be not punished, then, according to you, he will be happy?
1672SOCRATES: Or swiftness and slowness?
1672SOCRATES: Say rather, Polus, impossible; for who can refute the truth?
1672SOCRATES: Shall we then assume two sorts of persuasion,--one which is the source of belief without knowledge, as the other is of knowledge?
1672SOCRATES: So then, in mind, body, and estate, which are three, you have pointed out three corresponding evils-- injustice, disease, poverty?
1672SOCRATES: Such treatment will be better for the soul herself?
1672SOCRATES: Surely, then, the just man will never consent to do injustice?
1672SOCRATES: Take the case of any bodily affection:--a man may have the complaint in his eyes which is called ophthalmia?
1672SOCRATES: Tell me, then, when do you say that they are good and when that they are evil-- what principle do you lay down?
1672SOCRATES: That again, Gorgias is ambiguous; I am still in the dark: for which are the greatest and best of human things?
1672SOCRATES: That is to say, he who receives admonition and rebuke and punishment?
1672SOCRATES: That is to say, in evil?
1672SOCRATES: That would surely be marvellous and absurd?
1672SOCRATES: The beneficial are good, and the hurtful are evil?
1672SOCRATES: The degrees of good and evil vary with the degrees of pleasure and of pain?
1672SOCRATES: The flatterer?
1672SOCRATES: The good and evil both have joy and pain, but, perhaps, the evil has more of them?
1672SOCRATES: Then I am to call you a rhetorician?
1672SOCRATES: Then I was right in saying that a man may do what seems good to him in a state, and not have great power, and not do what he wills?
1672SOCRATES: Then a man may delight a whole assembly, and yet have no regard for their true interests?
1672SOCRATES: Then are the good and bad good and bad in a nearly equal degree, or have the bad the advantage both in good and evil?
1672SOCRATES: Then arithmetic as well as rhetoric is an artificer of persuasion?
1672SOCRATES: Then doing injustice will have an excess of evil, and will therefore be a greater evil than suffering injustice?
1672SOCRATES: Then he ceases from pain and pleasure at the same moment?
1672SOCRATES: Then he is benefited?
1672SOCRATES: Then he lives worst, who, having been unjust, has no deliverance from injustice?
1672SOCRATES: Then he who is punished and suffers retribution, suffers justly?
1672SOCRATES: Then he who is punished is delivered from the evil of his soul?
1672SOCRATES: Then he who is punished suffers what is good?
1672SOCRATES: Then if great power is a good as you allow, will such a one have great power in a state?
1672SOCRATES: Then injustice and intemperance, and in general the depravity of the soul, are the greatest of evils?
1672SOCRATES: Then let me raise another question; there is such a thing as''having learned''?
1672SOCRATES: Then medicine also treats of discourse?
1672SOCRATES: Then pleasure is not the same as good fortune, or pain the same as evil fortune, and therefore the good is not the same as the pleasant?
1672SOCRATES: Then poetry is a sort of rhetoric?
1672SOCRATES: Then restraint or chastisement is better for the soul than intemperance or the absence of control, which you were just now preferring?
1672SOCRATES: Then rhetoric does not treat of all kinds of discourse?
1672SOCRATES: Then rhetoric is not the only artificer of persuasion?
1672SOCRATES: Then the art of money- making frees a man from poverty; medicine from disease; and justice from intemperance and injustice?
1672SOCRATES: Then the good and the bad are pleased and pained in a nearly equal degree?
1672SOCRATES: Then the house in which order and regularity prevail is good; that in which there is disorder, evil?
1672SOCRATES: Then the laws of the many are the laws of the superior?
1672SOCRATES: Then the many are by nature superior to the one, against whom, as you were saying, they make the laws?
1672SOCRATES: Then the punisher does what is honourable, and the punished suffers what is honourable?
1672SOCRATES: Then they are the laws of the better; for the superior class are far better, as you were saying?
1672SOCRATES: Then they can only exceed in the other?
1672SOCRATES: Then they do not exceed in pain?
1672SOCRATES: Then those who rejoice are good when goods are present with them?
1672SOCRATES: Then those who rejoice are good, and those who are in pain evil?
1672SOCRATES: Then those who want nothing are not truly said to be happy?
1672SOCRATES: Then to which service of the State do you invite me?
1672SOCRATES: Then upon this view, Pericles was not a good statesman?
1672SOCRATES: Then we have found the reason why there is no dishonour in a man receiving pay who is called in to advise about building or any other art?
1672SOCRATES: Then, as this is admitted, let me ask whether being punished is suffering or acting?
1672SOCRATES: Then, as would appear, power and art have to be provided in order that we may do no injustice?
1672SOCRATES: Then, as you are in earnest, shall we proceed with the argument?
1672SOCRATES: Then, if you approve the question, Gorgias, what is the answer?
1672SOCRATES: There is pleasure in drinking?
1672SOCRATES: To do wrong, then, is second only in the scale of evils; but to do wrong and not to be punished, is first and greatest of all?
1672SOCRATES: Very good, Callicles; but will he answer our questions?
1672SOCRATES: Well now, suppose that we strip all poetry of song and rhythm and metre, there will remain speech?
1672SOCRATES: Well, Polus, but if this is true, where is the great use of rhetoric?
1672SOCRATES: Well, and is not he who has learned carpentering a carpenter?
1672SOCRATES: Well, and was not this the point in dispute, my friend?
1672SOCRATES: Well, but do you admit that the wiser is the better?
1672SOCRATES: Well, but is there a false knowledge as well as a true?
1672SOCRATES: Well, if you are willing to proceed, determine this question for me:--There is something, I presume, which you would call knowledge?
1672SOCRATES: Well, my friend, but what do you think of swimming; is that an art of any great pretensions?
1672SOCRATES: What are we to do, then?
1672SOCRATES: What are you saying, Polus?
1672SOCRATES: What events?
1672SOCRATES: What is the name which is given to the effect of harmony and order in the body?
1672SOCRATES: What sort of discourse, Gorgias?--such discourse as would teach the sick under what treatment they might get well?
1672SOCRATES: When you are thirsty?
1672SOCRATES: Which condition may not be really good, but good only in appearance?
1672SOCRATES: Which rejoice and sorrow most-- the wise or the foolish?
1672SOCRATES: Which, then, is the best of these three?
1672SOCRATES: Why then?
1672SOCRATES: Why, did you not say just now that the rhetoricians are like tyrants, and that they kill and despoil or exile any one whom they please?
1672SOCRATES: Will you ask me, what sort of an art is cookery?
1672SOCRATES: Will you understand my answer?
1672SOCRATES: Will you, who are so desirous to gratify others, afford a slight gratification to me?
1672SOCRATES: Wisdom and health and wealth and the like you would call goods, and their opposites evils?
1672SOCRATES: Words which do what?
1672SOCRATES: Would any other man prefer a greater to a less evil?
1672SOCRATES: Would he not be utterly at a loss for a reply?
1672SOCRATES: Yes, I do; and what is the name which you would give to the effect of harmony and order in the soul?
1672SOCRATES: Yes, because the patient is delivered from a great evil; and this is the advantage of enduring the pain-- that you get well?
1672SOCRATES: You further said that the wrong- doer is happy if he be unpunished?
1672SOCRATES: You said also, that no man could have good and evil fortune at the same time?
1672SOCRATES: You were saying, in fact, that the rhetorician will have greater powers of persuasion than the physician even in a matter of health?
1672SOCRATES: You would further admit that there is a good condition of either of them?
1672SOCRATES:--Who are to punish them?
1672Shall I pursue the question?
1672Shall I tell you why I anticipate this?
1672Shall I tell you why I think so?
1672Shall we break off in the middle?
1672Shall we say that?
1672Should we not examine him before we entrusted him with the office?
1672Such are their respective lives:--And now would you say that the life of the intemperate is happier than that of the temperate?
1672Tell me, Callicles, if a person were to ask these questions of you, what would you answer?
1672Tell me, Socrates, are you in earnest, or only in jest?
1672Tell me, then, Callicles, how about making any of the citizens better?
1672Than themselves?
1672The answer depends on another question: What use did the children of Cronos make of their time?
1672Then are not the many superior to the one, and the opinions of the many better?
1672Then these are the points at issue between us-- are they not?
1672There remains the other question: Is a guilty man better off when he is punished or when he is unpunished?
1672This is what I believe that you mean( and you must not suppose that I am word- catching), if you allow that the one is superior to the ten thousand?
1672Though we are not going to banish the poets, how can we suppose that such utterances have any healing or life- giving influence on the minds of men?
1672To him again I shall say, Who are you, honest friend, and what is your business?
1672To what class of things do the words which rhetoric uses relate?
1672Under his protection he will suffer no evil, but will he also do no evil?
1672Was not this said?
1672Was there ever a man who was once vicious, or unjust, or intemperate, or foolish, and became by the help of Callicles good and noble?
1672Was there ever such a man, whether citizen or stranger, slave or freeman?
1672We ask the question, Where were men before birth?
1672We may assume the existence of bodies and of souls?
1672Well, you and I say to him, and are you a creator of wealth?
1672What do you mean?
1672What do you say to this?
1672What do you say?
1672What do you say?
1672What do you suppose that the physician would be able to reply when he found himself in such a predicament?
1672What greater good can men have, Socrates?''
1672What is feeling but rhetoric?
1672What is to be said about all this?
1672What nonsense are you talking?
1672What part of flattery is rhetoric?
1672What right have you to despise the engine- maker, and the others whom I was just now mentioning?
1672What then distinguishes rhetoric from the other arts which have to do with words?
1672What then is his meaning?
1672When the assembly meets to elect a physician or a shipwright or any other craftsman, will the rhetorician be taken into counsel?
1672Which of the arts then are flatteries?
1672Who is the true poet?
1672Whom did they make better?
1672Whom has he made better?
1672Whom would you say that you had improved by your conversation?
1672Why are you silent, Polus?
1672Why do I say this?
1672Why do you ask me whether rhetoric is a fine thing or not, when I have not as yet told you what rhetoric is?
1672Why do you not answer?
1672Why will you not answer?
1672Will Callicles still maintain this?
1672Will he not rather contrive to do as much wrong as possible, and not be punished?
1672Will the good soul be that in which disorder is prevalent, or that in which there is harmony and order?
1672Will you ask me another question-- What is cookery?
1672Will you keep your promise, and answer shortly the questions which are asked of you?
1672Would he not be a bad manager of any animals who received them gentle, and made them fiercer than they were when he received them?
1672You mean to say that one man of sense ought to rule over ten thousand fools?
1672You say that you can make any man, who will learn of you, a rhetorician?
1672You will admit, I suppose, that good and evil fortune are opposed to each other?
1672and does all happiness consist in this?
1672and was any one else ever known to be cured by him, whether slave or freeman?
1672and you said,''The painter of figures,''should I not be right in asking,''What kind of figures, and where do you find them?''
1672are they not like tyrants?
1672did you never hear that Themistocles was a good man, and Cimon and Miltiades and Pericles, who is just lately dead, and whom you heard yourself?
1672do you mean that I may not use as many words as I please?
1672do you think that rhetoric is flattery?
1672must he have the power, or only the will to obtain them?
1672my philosopher, is that your line?
1672or the good for the sake of the pleasant?
1672or the weaver to have more coats, or the cobbler larger shoes, or the farmer more seed?
1672or what ignorance more disgraceful than this?
1672or who would undertake the duty of state- physician, if he had never cured either himself or any one else?
1672or would you say that the coward has more?
1672to be one of those arts which act always and fulfil all their ends through the medium of words?
1672will you ask him, Chaerephon--?
1672you mean those fools,--the temperate?
1177Do you admit that any one purposing to build a perfect house( 13) will plan to make it at once as pleasant and as useful to live in as possible?
1177Do you think, sirs, that we ought to thank Theodote for displaying her beauty to us, or she us for coming to gaze at her?... 1177 From whom may the doer of a deed of kindness more confidently expect the recompense of gratitude than from your lover of the law?
1177Heracles hearing these words made answer:''What, O lady, is the name you bear?'' 1177 It is pleasant to have one''s house cool in summer and warm in winter, is it not?"
1177Or,interposed another,"what if the dainty dishes he devours are out of all proportion to the rest of his meal-- what of him?"
1177Rep.372 C.( 5) Or,"The conversation had fallen upon names: what is the precise thing denoted under such and such a term?
1177Shall I appoint a mariner to be skipper of my vessel, or a landsman?
1177Then spoke Virtue:''Nay, wretched one, what good thing hast thou? 1177 Was it open to him,"Socrates inquired of the speaker,"in case he failed to understand their commands in any point, to ask for an explanation?"
1177You have not( in your employ) a body of handicraftsmen of any sort?
1177and what of the man who eats much{ opson} on the top of a little({ sitos})?
1177could you say that the beneficial is anything else than good( or a good)?
1177his practice must square with his knowledge and be the outward expression of his belief?
1177( 1) Or,"When some one retorted upon him with the question:''Can courage be taught?''"
1177( 11) But for me what disgrace is it that others should fail of a just decision and right acts concerning me?...
1177( 12)( 12) Or,"how do you make a well- proportioned corselet fit an ill- proportioned body?
1177( 12)( 12) Or,"may a man deal with his fellow- men arbitrarily according to his fancy?"
1177( 14) Add,"Can service ally in friendship with disservice?
1177( 14) Can service ally in friendship with disservice?
1177( 14) The question arises: how far is the conversation historical or imaginary?
1177( 14)( 14) Or,"Is that to choose the path of safety, think you?
1177( 15) I suppose you try to run off one string of letters to- day and to- morrow another?
1177( 18)( 18) Or,"and no one who knows what he must and should do imagines that he must and should not do it?"
1177( 19)( 19) Or,"and nobody that you know of does the contrary of what he thinks he should do?"
1177( 2) Or,"the money- lender?
1177( 20) or( as the youth signified dissent) possibly a rhapsodist?
1177( 21)( 21) Or,"is of greater evidential value,""ubi res adsunt, quid opus est verbis?"
1177( 22)( 22) Or,"is not abstinence from wrongdoing synonymous with righteous behaviour?"
1177( 28) How then should a man honour the gods with more beautiful or holier honour than by doing what they bid him?
1177( 28) Why?
1177( 3) Do not you see how each time he has been choragos( 4) he has been successful with one chorus after another?
1177( 3) Or add,"''What is this among things?
1177( 3) Was a man able on the one hand to recognise things beautiful and good sufficiently to live in them?
1177( 33)( 33) Or,"Can it be said that those who are unable to cope nobly with their perilous surroundings know how they ought to deal with them?"
1177( 38) Such being his conduct, was he not worthy of high honour from the state of Athens?
1177( 41)( 41) Or,"In the management of moneys, then, his strength will consist in his rendering the state better provided with ways and means?"
1177( 5) Whereupon Socrates, appealing to the company:"Can we explain why we call a man a''dainty fellow''?
1177( 5)( 5) Or,"can you give me a definition of the pious man?
1177( 6) Is it not so?
1177( 6) this coping of the region above the eyes with cornice- work of eyebrow so that no drop of sweat fall from the head and injure them?
1177( 6){ opsophagos}={ opson}( or relish) eater, and so a"gourmand"or"epicure"; but how to define a gourmand?
1177( 8)"And if this be so concerning wisdom,{ sophia}, what of{ sophrasune}, soundness of soul-- sobriety?"
1177( Let us pause and ask how could man die more nobly and more beautifully than in the way described?
1177( rejoined Socrates), do you not see that to gratify a man like yourself is far pleasanter as a matter of self- interest than to quarrel with you?
1177--"Do you find it strange"( he continued),"that to the Godhead it should appear better for me to close my life at once?
11777 D. In answer to the question: what is leisure?
1177A man had administered a severe whipping to the slave in attendance on him, and when Socrates asked:"Why he was so wroth with his own serving- man?"
1177After such sort he handled the question, what is the virtue of a good leader?
1177Again, suppose he deceives the foe while at war with them?
1177Again, to chastise the bad and reward the good belongs to both alike, methinks?
1177Ah, Glaucon( he exclaimed), so you have determined to become prime minister?
1177And I presume that he who does what is just is just, and he who does what is unjust is unjust?
1177And I presume the law- loving citizen will do what is just and right, while the lawless man will do what is unjust and wrong?
1177And also to assign to those best qualified to perform them their distinctive tasks?
1177And am I to hold away from their attendant topics also-- the just, the holy, and the like?
1177And by things right and just you know what sort of things are meant?
1177And by what like contrivance would you have me catch my lovers?
1177And can worse befall a man, think you?
1177And can you suppose any other people to be good in respect of such things except those who are able to cope with them and turn them to noble account?
1177And can you tell me what sort of person the pious man is?
1177And did the magic words of this spell serve for all men alike?
1177And did you imagine( replied Socrates) that it was possible for a bad man to make good friends?
1177And did you notice an inscription somewhere on the temple:{ GNOMI SEAUTON}--KNOW THYSELF?
1177And do anxiety and relief of mind occasioned by the good or evil fortune of those we love both wear the same expression?
1177And do you consider it to the interest of both alike to win the adherence of supporters and allies?
1177And do you know of anybody doing other than what he feels bound to do?
1177And do you not agree that he who is destined to rule must train himself to bear these things lightly?
1177And do you not regard it as right and just to abstain from wrong?
1177And do you suppose that any one who knows what things he ought to do supposes that he ought not to do them?
1177And do you think the Boeotians could furnish a better pick of fine healthy men than the Athenians?
1177And does any man honour the gods otherwise than he thinks he ought?
1177And does he who lies and deceives with intent know what is right rather than he who does either or both unconsciously?
1177And does it not closely concern them both to be good guardians of their respective charges?
1177And does not the faithful imitation of the various affections of the body when engaged in any action impart a particular pleasure to the beholder?
1177And for the better-- which?
1177And has this mother ever done you any injury-- such as people frequently receive from beasts, by bite or kick?
1177And have upright men( continued Socrates) their distinctive and appropriate works like those of carpenters or shoe- makers?
1177And have you thought how to whet the courage of your troopers?
1177And have you troubled your head at all to consider how you are to secure the obedience of your men?
1177And have you understood what it is they do to get that bad name?
1177And he who has the{ episteme} of things rightful is more righteous than he who lacks the{ episteme}?
1177And he who honours as he ought is a pious man?
1177And he who knows how he must honour the gods conceives that he ought not to do so except in the manner which accords with his knowledge?
1177And how did Themistocles( 11) win our city''s love?
1177And how did he come off on the journey?
1177And how long do you expect your body to be equal to providing the necessaries of life for hire?
1177And how many others, pray, do you suppose have been seized on account of their wisdom, and despatched to the great king and at his court enslaved?
1177And how might I hit upon any artifice to attract him?
1177And if he had faith in the gods, how could he fail to recognise them?
1177And if there is to be no laying on of the hands, there must be no application either of the lips; is it agreed?
1177And if we turn to private life, what better protection can a man have than obedience to the laws?
1177And if you wanted to induce some friend to look after your affairs during your absence abroad, how would you achieve your purpose?
1177And if you wished to get some foreign friend to take you under his roof while visiting his country, what would you do?
1177And in the event of war, by rendering his state superior to her antagonists?
1177And in your opinion, Hippias, is the legislation of the gods just and righteous, or the reverse of what is just and righteous?
1177And is it allowable to honour the gods in any mode or fashion one likes?
1177And is it your opinion that there is a lore and science of Right and Justice just as there is of letters and grammar?
1177And is there anything else good except that which is beneficial, should you say?
1177And is this, that, and the other thing beautiful for aught else except that to which it may be beautifully applied?
1177And is wisdom anything else than that by which a man is wise, think you?
1177And just as the carpenter is able to exhibit his works and products, the righteous man should be able to expound and set forth his, should he not?
1177And let us not forget that the moon herself not only makes clear to us the quarters of the night, but of the month also?
1177And loaves of bread?
1177And pray what is this theory( 20) of yours on the subject?
1177And should you say that any one obeys the laws without knowing what the laws ordain?
1177And so I propound the question to myself as follows:"Have friends, like slaves, their market values?"
1177And the beautiful: can we speak of a thing as beautiful in any other way than relatively?
1177And the enslavement of free- born men?
1177And the same pupil must be furnished with a power of holding out against thirst also when the craving to quench it comes upon him?
1177And these things around and about us, enormous in size, infinite in number, owe their orderly arrangement, as you suppose, to some vacuity of wit?
1177And they who deal well and nobly by mankind are well- doers in respect of human affairs?
1177And they who deal with one another as they ought, deal well and nobly-- is it not so?
1177And this I take to be the strictly legal view of the case, for what does the law require?
1177And this too is plain, is it not: that through self- knowledge men meet with countless blessings, and through ignorance of themselves with many evils?
1177And this, which is the source of opposite effects to the very worst, will be the very best of things?
1177And those people who are of a kind to cope but badly with the same occurrences, it would seem, are bad?
1177And thus, in the art of spinning wool, he liked to point out that women are the rulers of men-- and why?
1177And to win the kindly feeling of their subordinates must surely be the noble ambition of both?
1177And upon his asking"How?"
1177And we can not allow any of these to lie on the R side of the account, to the side of right and justice, can we, Euthydemus?
1177And we may take it the state will grow wealthier in proportion as her revenues increase?
1177And what has such a one to do with the spilling of blood?
1177And what have you seen him doing, that you give him so bad a character?
1177And what is it in which you desire to excel, Euthydemus, that you collect books?
1177And what is the distinction, Euthydemus( he asked), between a man devoid of self- control and the dullest of brute beasts?
1177And what is the inevitable penalty paid by those who, being related as parents and children, intermingle in marriage?
1177And what of courage,( 29) Euthydemus?
1177And what of measures passed by a minority, not by persuasion of the majority, but in the exercise of its power only?
1177And what of this: that whereas we need nutriment, this too the heavenly powers yield us?
1177And what shall we say that wisdom is?
1177And what sort of lords and masters are those, think you, who at once put a stop to what is best and enforce what is worst?
1177And what sort of slavery do you take to be the worst?
1177And when Euthydemus was silent, considering what answer he should make, Socrates added: Possibly you want to be a great doctor?
1177And when the other asked:"And what may that be?"
1177And when( asked he), can health be a source of evil, or disease a source of good?
1177And wherein have you detected in me this power, that you pass so severe a sentence upon me?
1177And which among the components of happiness and well- being can possibly be questionable?
1177And which is colder for bathing-- yours or the cold spring in the cave of Amphiaraus?
1177And which of the two knows what is right-- he who intentionally lies and deceives, or he who lies and deceives unconsciously?
1177And which of the two would you take to be the more united people-- the friendlier among themselves?
1177And which should you say was more a man of letters( 34)--he who intentionally misspells or misreads, or he who does so unconsciously?
1177And which should you say were the better human beings, the free- born members of your household or Ceramon''s slaves?
1177And whom do you consider to be the people?
1177And why do men go soldiering except to ameliorate existence?
1177And why?
1177And would it not seem to be a base thing for a man to be affected like the silliest bird or beast?
1177And yet you imagine that elsewhere no spark of wisdom is to be found?
1177And you admit that people reckon the ungrateful among wrongdoers?
1177And you know the appellation given to certain people--"slavish,"( 39) or,"little better than a slave?"
1177And( 8) soundness of soul, the spirit of temperate modesty?
1177And, I presume, also the prohibition of intermarriage between parents and children?
1177And, I presume, to honour parents is also customary everywhere?
1177And, again, to have some one over you who will prevent you doing the like seems a loss of freedom?
1177And, on the other, he who has the knowledge of what is right is more righteous than he who lacks that knowledge?
1177Are not these intended for you also?
1177Are they admired the rather or despised?
1177Are they all like each other?
1177Are we to be called dainty eaters because we like our bread buttered?"
1177Are we, or are we not, to apply the term violence to these?
1177Are you not a man?
1177Are you not an Athenian?
1177As though a man should inquire,"Am I to choose an expert driver as my coachman, or one who has never handled the reins?"
1177Barley meal is a useful product, is it not?
1177But do you know any other love- charms, Socrates?
1177But do you not see that modesty and timidity are feelings implanted in man''s nature?
1177But how are we to test these qualities, Socrates, before acquaintance?
1177But how convert them into friends?
1177But how or why should they breed them ill where nothing hinders them, being of a good stock themselves and producing from stock as good?
1177But is it likely now?
1177But may I ask is this judgment the result of personal inspection?
1177But maybe there is another considerable advantage in this"fitting"?
1177But now, Euthydemus, has it ever occurred to you to note one fact?
1177But now, are you aware, Hippias, of certain unwritten laws?
1177But now, he who honours lawfully honours as he ought?
1177But now, with regard to human beings; is it allowable to deal with men in any way one pleases?
1177But perhaps you object to enthusiasm displayed in defence of one''s home and fatherland in war?
1177But suppose I do, and suppose that, for all my attempts, he shows no change for the better?
1177But suppose you sweep away the outposts( he asked), may not something worse, think you, be the consequence?
1177But supposing a man to be elected general, and he succeeds in enslaving an unjust, wicked, and hostile state, are we to say that he is doing wrong?
1177But tell me( he proceeded), do you owe service to any living being, think you?
1177But tell me, did he teach you how to draw up troops in general, or specifically where and how to apply each particular kind of tactical arrangement?
1177But tell me, how shall I assist you best, think you?
1177But then are not the wearer''s bodies themselves( asked Socrates) some well proportioned and others ill?
1177But then, he who does what is just and right is upright and just?
1177But then, he who does what is just and right is upright and just?
1177But would it not have been better to inquire first what is the work or function of a good citizen?
1177But, Pericles, violence and lawlessness-- how do we define them?
1177But, Socrates, what kind of man shall we endeavour to make our friend?
1177By praising you falsely or by persuading you to try to be a good man?
1177Can a man be said, do you think, to know himself who knows his own name and nothing more?
1177Can anything more seriously militate against these than this same incontinence?
1177Can it be said that those who are unable to cope well with them or to turn them to noble account know how they must and should deal with them?
1177Can it be that you alone are excepted as a signal instance of Divine neglect?
1177Can it be that you despise these penalties affixed to an evil habit?
1177Can you tell us what set you wishing to be a general of cavalry, young sir?
1177Can you then assert( asked Socrates) of these unwritten laws that men made them?
1177Clearly they are wise in what they know;( 23) for how could a man have wisdom in that which he does not know?
1177Come now, what when the people of Athens make inquiry by oracle, and the gods''answer comes?
1177Could we expect such an one to save us or to master our foes?
1177Deceit too is not uncommon?
1177Did they not make the tongue also?
1177Did you, possibly, pay no regard to the inscription?
1177Do I understand you to ask me whether I know anything good for fever?
1177Do human beings in general attain to well- tempered manhood by a course of idling, or by carefully attending to what will be of use?
1177Do not you know that relatively to the same standard all things are at once beautiful and good?
1177Do you agree, then, that we must hold aloof from every one so dominated?
1177Do you find that your domestics seem to mind drinking it or washing in it?
1177Do you imagine that one thing is good and another beautiful?
1177Do you mean to assert that the same things may be beautiful and ugly?
1177Do you mean to assert( he asked) that lawful and just are synonymous terms?
1177Do you not know that even a weakling by nature may, by dint of exercise and practice, come to outdo a giant who neglects his body?
1177Do you not know the sharper the appetite the less the need of sauces, the keener the thirst the less the desire for out- of- the- way drinks?
1177Do you not note your brother''s character, proud and frank and sensitive to honour?
1177Do you not observe their discipline in all naval matters?
1177Do you not see how dangerous it is for a man to speak or act beyond the range( 14) of his knowledge?
1177Do you not see( to speak of a much less noble sort of game) what a number of devices are needed to bag a hare?
1177Do you pour contempt upon those blessings which flow from the healthy state?
1177Do you really mean, Socrates, that it is the function of the same man to provide efficient choruses and to act as commander- in- chief?
1177Do you think you could lightly endure them?
1177Does it seem to you that the same thing is equally advantageous to all?
1177Does it surprise you?
1177Does not the term apply to all who can make any sort of useful product or commodity?
1177Does not the very soundness imply at once health and strength?
1177Does some terror confound?
1177Does that sound like the perfection of athletic training?
1177Doing?
1177Empty- handed, or had he something to carry?
1177Enact on the hypothesis that it is right to do what is good?
1177Even so; but ought we to regard those things which at one moment benefit and at another moment injure us in any strict sense good rather than evil?
1177For I presume you can not make them all exactly equal and of one pattern-- if you make them fit, as of course you do?
1177For how can such people, the ungrateful, or reckless, or covetous, or faithless, or incontinent, adhere together as friends?
1177For how long a time could the corn supplies from the country districts support the city?
1177For how should they who do evil be friends with those who hate all evil- doing?
1177For what other creature, to begin with, has a soul to appreciate the existence of the gods who have arranged this grand and beauteous universe?
1177For who would care to have in his house a fellow with so slight a disposition to work and so strong a propensity to extravagance?
1177From what source shall we learn them?
1177From what source, then, do you get your means of subsistence?
1177Had he, on the other hand, knowledge of the"base and foul"so as to beware of them?
1177Had the Sirens only to utter this one incantation, and was every listener constrained to stay?
1177Have you ever seen me battling with any one for shade on account of the heat?
1177He did not, did not he?
1177He would ask first: Did these investigators feel their knowledge of things human so complete that they betook themselves to these lofty speculations?
1177He would be forced to imitate the good flute player in the externals of his art, would he not?
1177Here would have been a fair test to apply to Socrates: Was he guilty of any base conduct himself?
1177How am I to teach them that?
1177How appropriate( 11) would such a preface sound on the lips of any one seeking, say, the office of state physician,( 12) would it not?
1177How are we to inculcate this lesson?
1177How are you to teach them that?
1177How can you suppose that they do not so take thought?
1177How could a man be wise in what he lacks the knowledge of?"
1177How much sorrow and pain, when you were ill?
1177How shall I woo and win you?
1177How should I be ignorant of the art of dealing with my brother if I know the art of repaying kind words and good deeds in kind?
1177How so?
1177How so?
1177How then shall I create this hunger in the heart of my friends?
1177How then( he asked) can that be beautiful which is unlike the beautiful?
1177How will you charge at the head of such a troop, and win glory for the state?
1177I ask you, when you see all these things constructed with such show of foresight can you doubt whether they are products of chance or intelligence?
1177I have fourteen free- born souls, I tell you, under my single roof, and how are we to live?
1177I presume that those who obey the laws do what is just and right?
1177I presume to turn a thing to its proper use is to apply it beautifully?
1177I presume you also know who the rich are?
1177I presume you rank courage among things beautiful?
1177I suppose you mean that, besides his other qualifications a commandant of cavalry must have command of speech and argument?
1177I suppose you refer to that judgment of the gods which, for their virtue''s sake, Cecrops and his followers were called on to decide?
1177I suppose, Parrhasius( said he), painting may be defined as"a representation of visible objects,"may it not?
1177I understand you to say that a straightforward course is not in every case to be pursued even in dealing with friends?
1177IV At another time, seeing Nicomachides on his way back from the elections( of magistrates),( 1) he asked him: Who are elected generals, Nicomachides?
1177IX Being again asked by some one: could courage be taught,( 1) or did it come by nature?
1177If this then be so concerning these virtues,( 9) what with regard to carefulness and devotion to all that ought to occupy us?
1177If thou openest thy lips in speech, who will believe thy word?
1177If, then, I can prove to my troopers that I am better than all of them, will that suffice to win their obedience?
1177Ignorance, for instance, of smithying?
1177In answer to the question: what is envy?
1177In conduct and language his behaviour conformed to the rule laid down by the Pythia( 2) in reply to the question,"How shall we act?"
1177In fact, then, the wise are wise in knowledge?
1177In making a purchase even, I am not to ask, what is the price of this?
1177In the first place, what evidence did they produce that Socrates refused to recognise the gods acknowledged by the state?
1177In what way?
1177Is he more likely to secure his salvation that way, think you, or to compass his own swift destruction?"
1177Is he not expected to get up and offer him his seat, to pay him the honour of a soft couch,( 6) to yield him precedence in argument?
1177Is it a term suggestive of the wisdom or the ignorance of those to whom it is applied?
1177Is it not rather to sign his own death- warrent?"
1177Is it not so?
1177Is it not the custom everywhere for the younger to step aside when he meets his elder in the street and to give him place?
1177Is it not when a stronger man forces a weaker to do what seems right to him-- not by persuasion but by compulsion?
1177Is that the ground of your confidence?
1177Is that your attitude, or do you admit that you owe allegiance to somebody?
1177Is the author thinking of a life- and- death struggle with Thebes?
1177Is the sequel extraordinary?
1177Is there need of kindly action in any quarter?
1177Is this possibly the explanation?
1177It comes to this then: he who knows what the law requires in reference to the gods will honour the gods in the lawful way?
1177It follows, then, that in proportion to the greatness of the benefit conferred, the greater his misdoing who fails to requite the kindness?
1177It is a fair inference, is it not, that he who has the{ episteme} of grammar is more grammatical than he who has no such{ episteme}?
1177It is a noble quality?
1177It looks, does it not, Euthydemus, as if self- control were the best thing a man could have?
1177It seems that those who have no fear in face of dangers, simply because they do not know what they are, are not courageous?
1177It seems that you regard courage as useful to no mean end?
1177It would appear that he who knows what the law requires with respect to the gods will correctly be defined as a pious man, and that is our definition?
1177It would appear, then, that the law- loving man is just, and the lawless unjust?
1177It would seem that he who knows what things are lawful( 20) as concerning men does the things that are just and right?
1177It would seem that the seed of those who are not yet in their prime or have passed their prime is not good?
1177It would seem that the useful is beautiful relatively to that for which it is of use?
1177It would seem the wisdom of each is limited to his knowledge; each is wise only in what he knows?
1177It would seem then that the sculptor is called upon to incorporate in his ideal form the workings and energies also of the soul?
1177It would seem then( pursued Socrates) that the incontinent man is bound over to the worst sort of slavery, would it not?
1177It would seem then, Hippias, the gods themselves are well pleased that"the lawful"and"the just"should be synonymous?
1177It would seem to follow that if a tyrant, without persuading the citizens, drives them by enactment to do certain things-- that is lawlessness?
1177It would seem to follow that knowledge and wisdom are the same?
1177It would seem to follow that the beneficial is good relatively to him to whom it is beneficial?
1177It would seem to follow that they who do what the laws ordain both do what is right and just and what they ought?
1177It would seem to follow that those who have the knowledge how to behave are also those who have the power?
1177It would seem you are decidedly of opinion that the incontinent are the reverse of free?
1177It would seem, conversely, that they who cope ill have made some egregious blunder?
1177Let us take the case of deceiving a friend to his detriment: which is the more wrongful-- to do so voluntarily or unintentionally?
1177Lying exists among men, does it not?
1177May I ask, does it seem to you possible for a man to know all the things that are?
1177May it be that both one and the other class do use these circumstances as they think they must and should?
1177May it not perhaps be( asked Socrates) that in this department they are officered by those who have the least knowledge?
1177May our body be said to have a soul?
1177Must there not be a reciprocity of service to make friendship lasting?"
1177Must we not suppose that these too will take their sorrows lightly, looking to these high ends?
1177Nay, how( he answered) should that be, for how could they all have come together from the ends of the earth?
1177Nay, what sort of meshes have I?
1177No doubt( replied Socrates) you have accomplished that initial step?
1177No?
1177Nor answers either, I suppose, if the inquiry concerns what I know, as, for instance, where does Charicles live?
1177Now I ask you, have you ever noticed that I keep more within doors than others on account of the cold?
1177Now is it not insensate stupidity( 8) to use for injury what was meant for advantage?
1177Now you, I daresay, through versatility of knowledge,( 14) never say the same thing twice over on the same subject?
1177Now, why?
1177Obviously you propose to remove all those which are superfluous?
1177Once more then: how should a man of this character corrupt the young?
1177Only, will you be"at home"to me?
1177Or again, what good would there be in odours if nostrils had not been bestowed upon us?
1177Or did they maintain that they were playing their proper parts in thus neglecting the affairs of man to speculate on the concerns of God?
1177Or do you believe that your mother is really ill disposed towards you?
1177Or do you maintain that the evil habit is healthier, and in general more useful than the good?
1177Or do you not think that a fact is worth more as evidence than a word?
1177Or have the fruits of your marketing a flavour denied to mine?
1177Or have you not heard of the"woes of Palamedes,"( 51) that commonest theme of song, how for his wisdom''s sake Odysseus envied him and slew him?
1177Or how do you proceed when you discover the like tendency in one of your domestics?
1177Or on an embassy as a diplomatist, I presume, by securing friends in place of enemies?
1177Or steals and pillages their property?
1177Or, to put it conversely, what slave of pleasure will not suffer degeneracy of soul and body?
1177Please, Pericles, can you teach me what a law is?
1177Possibly Xenophon is imitating( caricaturing?)
1177Possibly in face of terrors and dangers you would consider it an advantage to be ignorant of them?
1177Possibly( he answered); but why do you address these questions to me?
1177Pray tell me, Theodote, have you an estate in the country?
1177Pray, my son, did you ever hear of certain people being called ungrateful?
1177Prepared not to please or try to please a single soul?
1177Presently Socrates proceeded: Then this is clear, Glaucon, is it not?
1177Shall the vanguard consist of men who are greediest of honour?
1177Shall we begin our inquiry from the beginning, as it were, with the bare elements of food and nutriment?
1177Shall we not admit that he is doing what is right?
1177Shall we then at this point turn and inquire which of the two are likely to lead the pleasanter life, the rulers or the ruled?
1177Shall we( Socrates continued), shall we balance the arguments for and against, and consider to what extent the possibility does exist?
1177Should he not try to become as dear as possible, so that his friends will not care to give him up?
1177Should you not have said that he was remarkable for his prudence rather than thoughtless or foolhardy?
1177So here, maybe, you will try to add to the wealth of the state?
1177So tell me, Aristodemus( he began), are there any human beings who have won your admiration for their wisdom?
1177So then everything which we set down on the side of Wrong will now have to be placed to the credit of Right?
1177So then you would counsel me to weave myself some sort of net?
1177Socrates said:( 5) Tell me, Euthydemus, has it ever struck you to observe what tender pains the gods have taken to furnish man with all his needs?
1177Suppose we stop and consider that very point: how do masters deal with that sort of domestic?
1177Suppose you wanted to get some acquaintance to invite you to dinner when he next keeps holy day,( 4) what steps would you take?
1177Supposing it is not the majority, but, as in the case of an oligarchy, the minority, who meet and enact the rules of conduct, what are these?
1177Tell me( said Socrates, addressing Critobulus), supposing we stood in need of a good friend, how should we set about his discovery?
1177Tell me( said he), Euthydemus, what sort of thing you take piety to be?
1177Tell me, Diodorus, if one of your slaves runs away, are you at pains to recover him?
1177Tell me, Euthydemus( he began), do you believe freedom to be a noble and magnificent acquisition, whether for a man or for a state?
1177Tell me, Xenophon, have you not always believed Critobulus to be a man of sound sense, not wild and self- willed?
1177Tell me, does it seem to you that the wise are wise in what they know,( 22) or are there any who are wise in what they know not?
1177That is a true saying; but how, Socrates, should a man best bring them to this virtue?
1177That much I made quite sure I knew, at any rate; since if I did not know even myself, what in the world did I know?
1177The command to which you are appointed concerns horses and riders, does it not?
1177The first thing will be to make them expert in mounting their chargers?
1177The greatest of all penalties; for what worse calamity can human beings suffer in the production of offspring than to misbeget?
1177The listener must needs be brought to ask himself,"Of what worth am I to my friends?"
1177The works of the temperate spirit and the works of incontinency are, I take it, diametrically opposed?
1177The wretch who can so behave must surely be tormented by an evil spirit?
1177Then I presume even a basket for carrying dung( 11) is a beautiful thing?
1177Then Socrates: Well, but the council which sits on Areopagos is composed of citizens of approved( 28) character, is it not?
1177Then Socrates: Which, think you, would be harder to bear-- a wild beast''s savagery or a mother''s?
1177Then Theodote: Oh why, Socrates, why are you not by my side( like the huntsman''s assistant) to help me catch my friends and lovers?
1177Then children who are so produced are produced not as they ought to be?
1177Then do you believe him to be a free man who is ruled by the pleasures of the body, and thereby can not perform what is best?
1177Then do you wish to be an architect?
1177Then do you wish to be an astronomer?
1177Then for inflammation of the eyes?
1177Then he who knows these laws will know how he must honour the gods?
1177Then health and disease themselves when they prove to be sources of any good are good, but when of any evil, evil?
1177Then here again are looks with it is possible to represent?
1177Then how do you make this quality apparent to the customer so as to justify the higher price-- by measure or weight?
1177Then how do you manage to make the corselet well proportioned if it is to fit an ill- proportioned body?
1177Then if a tyrant, holding the chief power in the state, enacts rules of conduct for the citizens, are these enactments law?
1177Then if that is how the matter stands, ingratitude would be an instance of pure unadulterate wrongdoing?
1177Then is it not to the interest of both to get the upper hand of these?
1177Then it equally concerns them both to be painstaking and prodigal of toil in all their doings?
1177Then it would seem that it is impossible for a man to be all- wise?
1177Then on whom, or what, was the assurance rooted, if not upon God?
1177Then perhaps you possess a house and large revenues along with it?
1177Then possibly ignorance of carpentering?
1177Then the right way to produce children is not that way?
1177Then the voluntary misspeller may be a lettered person, but the involuntary offender is an illiterate?
1177Then these too may be imitated?
1177Then this look, this glance, at any rate may be imitated in the eyes, may it not?
1177Then those who deal with one another in this way, deal with each other as they ought?
1177Then we must in every way strain every nerve to avoid the imputation of being slaves?
1177Then we must keep away from him too?
1177Then what if there is danger to be faced?
1177Then why do you not keep a watchman willing and competent to ward off this pack of people who seek to injure you?
1177Then would you for our benefit enumerate the land and naval forces first of Athens and then of our opponents?
1177Then would you kindly tell us from what sources the revenues of the state are at present derived, and what is their present magnitude?
1177Then you know who the poor are, of course?
1177Then your household do not know how to make any of these?
1177Then, by all that is sacred( Socrates continued), do not keep us in the dark, but tell us in what way do you propose first to benefit the state?
1177Then, on the ground that they are free- born and your kinswomen, you think that they ought to do nothing but eat and sleep?
1177Then, when you can not persuade your uncle, do you imagine you will be able to make the whole Athenian people, uncle and all, obey you?
1177Thereupon Euthydemus: Be assured I fully concur in your opinion; the precept KNOW THYSELF can not be too highly valued; but what is the application?
1177Thereupon Socrates: Tell me, Euthydemus, have you ever been to Delphi?
1177Think of a horse or a yoke of oxen; they have their worth; but who shall gauge the worth of a worthy friend?
1177Think you not that to you also the answer is given?
1177To obey neither general nor ruler of any sort?
1177To which Socrates replied: Tell me, Crito, you keep dogs, do you not, to ward off wolves from your flocks?
1177To which Socrates: Why do not you tell them the fable of the dog?
1177To which Socrates:"Did it ever strike you to consider which of the two in that case the more deserves a whipping-- the master or the man?"
1177To which side of the account then shall we place it?
1177To which side shall we place deceit?
1177Very good, no doubt, if the professor taught you to distinguish good and bad; but if not, where is the use of your learning?
1177Was it that he did not sacrifice?
1177Well now, tell me, is there nobody whom Chaerephon can please any more than he can please yourself; or do some people find him agreeable enough?
1177Well then, for hunger?
1177Well then, is it not a common duty of both to procure the ready obedience of those under them to their orders?
1177Well then, until we have got beyond the region of conjecture shall we defer giving advice on the matter?
1177Well then, you know that in point of numbers the Athenians are not inferior to the Boeotians?
1177Well then, your statement is this: on the one hand, the man who has the knowledge of letters is more lettered than he who has no such knowledge?
1177Well( replied Socrates), I presume you know quite well the distinction between good and bad things: your knowledge may be relied upon so far?
1177Well, and a continence in regard to matters sexual so great that nothing of the sort shall prevent him from doing his duty?
1177Well, and chicanery( 27) or mischief of any sort?
1177Well, and doubtless you feel to have a spark of wisdom yourself?
1177Well, and in parliamentary debate, by putting a stop to party strife and fostering civic concord?
1177Well, and on which of the two shall be bestowed, as a further gift, the voluntary resolution to face toils rather than turn and flee from them?
1177Well, and to which of them will it better accord to be taught all knowledge necessary towards the mastery of antagonists?
1177Well, and what do you say to cloaks for men and for women-- tunics, mantles, vests?
1177Well, and what of that other chance companion-- your fellow- traveller by land or sea?
1177Well, and will you not lay your hand to improve the men themselves?
1177Well, but now suppose you had had to carry his baggage, what would your condition have been like?
1177Well, but the kindly look of love, the angry glance of hate at any one, do find expression in the human subject, do they not?
1177Well, but when it comes to the hazard of engagement, what will you do then?
1177Well, do you wish to be a mathematician, like Theodorus?
1177Well, if one of your domestics is sick, do you tend him and call in the doctors to save his life?
1177Well, ignorance of shoemaking?
1177Well, it is a custom universally respected, is it not, to return good for good, and kindness with kindness?
1177Well, now, is it possible to know what a popular state is without knowing who the people are?
1177Well, prosperity, well- being( 53)( he exclaimed), must surely be a blessing, and that the most indisputable, Socrates?
1177Well, shall we see, then, how we may best avoid making blunders between them?
1177Well, shall you regard it as a part of your duty to see that as many of your men as possible can take aim and shoot on horseback?
1177Well, then, we may expect, may we not, that a desire to grasp food at certain seasons will exhibit itself in both the children?
1177Well; you take no notice of the dog''s ill- temper, you try to propitiate him by kindness; but your brother?
1177Were it not well, Aristippus, to lay to heart these sayings, and to strive to bethink you somewhat of that which touches the future of our life?
1177Were you travelling alone, or was your man- servant with you?
1177Were you under the impression that the commandant was not to open his mouth?
1177What are meant by just and unjust?
1177What becomes of your cavalry force then?
1177What can you expect but to make shipwreck of the craft and yourself together?
1177What do you say?
1177What do you take them to be?
1177What fact?
1177What father, himself sharing the society of his own children, is held to blame for their transgressions, if only his own goodness be established?
1177What is a handicraftsman?
1177What is a state?
1177What is justice?
1177What is left him but to lead a life stale and unprofitable, the scorn and mockery of men?
1177What is piety?
1177What is the beautiful?
1177What is the particular action to which the term applies?
1177What of this, since, to put it compendiously, there is nothing serviceable to the life of man worth speaking of but owes its fabrication to fire?
1177What offspring then( he asked) will be ill produced, ill begotten, and ill born, if not these?
1177What other tribe of animals save man can render service to the gods?
1177What quarter of the world do you hail from, Eutherus?
1177What sane man will venture to join thy rablle rout?
1177What say you concerning such a boon?
1177What say you, Antisthenes?--have friends their values like domestic slaves?
1177What say you?
1177What the noble?
1177What the starting- point of self- examination?
1177What then ought we to do now to recover our former virtue?
1177What was your object?
1177What way?
1177What when they send portents to forewarn the states of Hellas?
1177What, Hippias( Socrates retorted), have you not observed that I am in a chronic condition of proclaiming what I regard as just and upright?
1177When put to the test would not your administration prove ruinous, and the figure you cut ridiculous?
1177When shall we Athenians so obey our magistrates-- we who take a pride, as it were, in despising authority?
1177When some one asked him:"What he regarded as the best pursuit or business( 15) for a man?"
1177When some one else remarked"he was utterly prostrated after a long journey,"Socrates asked him:"Had he had any baggage to carry?"
1177When some one was apprehending the journey to Olympia,"Why are you afraid of the long distance?"
1177Where would you find a more arrant thief, savage, and murderer( 5) than the one?
1177Which is hotter to the taste-- the water in your house or the hot spring in the temple of Asclepius?
1177Which of them claims that?
1177Which of these two sets respectively leads the happier life, in your opinion?
1177Which, then, of the two must be trained, of his own free will,( 4) to prosecute a pressing business rather than gratify the belly?
1177Who else, if not they?
1177Who else, if not?
1177Who has less claim to this than the incontinent man?
1177Whom do you understand by poor and rich?
1177Why did Homer, think you, designate Agamemnon"shepherd of the peoples"?
1177Why, are you really versed in those things, Socrates?
1177Why, bless your soul, do you not see he has only slaves and I have free- born souls to feed?
1177Why, has not the fellow dared to steal a kiss from the son of Alcibiades, most fair of youths and in the golden prime?
1177Why, how else should they deal with them?
1177Why, in what else should a man be wise save only in knowledge?
1177Why, surely you do not suppose you are going to ensnare that noblest of all game-- a lover, to wit-- in so artless a fashion?
1177Why, to be sure; and is it not plain that these animals themselves are born and bred for the sake of man?
1177Why, what will you have them to do, that you may believe and be persuaded that you too are in their thoughts?
1177Will he, with the"beautiful and noble"at his side, be less able to aid his friends?
1177Will not he rather, in proportion as the boy deteriorates in the company of the latter, bestow more heartfelt praise upon the former?
1177Will they manipulate these and the like to suit their needs?
1177Without self- restraint who can lay any good lesson to heart or practise it when learnt in any degree worth speaking of?
1177Would not men have discovered the imposture in all this lapse of time?
1177Would you mention to us their names?
1177Yet they are both sure to meet with enemies?
1177You are not an employer of labour on a large scale?
1177You can not help feeling that they are costly to you, and they must see that you find them a burthen?
1177You know how they capture the creatures on which they live;( 7) by weaving webs of gossamer, is it not?
1177You mean it is a title particularly to those who are ignorant of the beautiful, the good, the just?
1177You mean( Socrates continued) that it is not the exactly- modelled corselet which fits, but that which does not gall the wearer in the using?
1177You state that so and so, whom you admire, is a better citizen that this other whom I admire?
1177You understand what is meant by laws of a city or state?
1177You wish to know what a law is?
1177You would imply, Socrates, would you not, that if we want to win the love of any good man we need to be good ourselves in speech and action?
1177You would say that a thing which is beneficial to one is sometimes hurtful to another?
1177a Hellene?
1177again this readiness of the ear to catch all sounds and yet not to be surcharged?
1177and do you imagine that these lovely creatures infuse nothing with their kiss, simply because you do not see the poison?
1177and even if they had so done, men are not all of one speech?
1177and how are we to effect the capture of this friend of our choice, whom the gods approve?
1177and what do you expect your fate to be after that kiss?
1177and what is its definition?''
1177and what of that other whose passion for money- making is so absorbing that he has no leisure for anything else, save how he may add to his gains?
1177and what of the man whose strength lies in monetary transactions?
1177and when we have discovered a man whose friendship is worth having, how ought we to make him our friend?
1177and whom would one select as the recipient of kindness rather than a man susceptible of gratitude?"
1177and, that even the winds of heaven may not visit them too roughly, this planting of the eyelashes as a protecting screen?
1177come now, Euthydemus, as concerning the good: ought we to search for the good in this way?
1177did not Socrates cause his associates to despise the established laws when he dwelt on the folly of appointing state officers by ballot?
1177for possibly to perform what is best appears to you to savour of freedom?
1177have you gone yourself and examined the defences?
1177he answered:"Successful conduct";( 16) and to a second question:"Did he then regard good fortune as an end to be pursued?"
1177how well proportioned?"
1177if the vendor is under the age of thirty?
1177is it indifferent to you whether these be friends or not, or do you admit that the goodwill of these is worth securing by some pains on your part?
1177no one will buy it; money?
1177of course we are to include these, for what would happiness be without these?
1177or are you prepared to stand alone?
1177or because they thought, if only we are leagued with him we shall become adepts in statecraft and unrivalled in the arts of speech and action?
1177or can you name any beautiful thing, body, vessel, or whatever it be, which you know of as universally beautiful?
1177or did you give it heed and try to discover who and what you were?
1177or do you rather rest secure in the consciousness that you would prove such a slave as no master would care to keep?
1177or else( 2)"and what is beneficial is good( or a good)?
1177or has no such notion perhaps ever entered their heads, and will they be content simply to know how such things come into existence?
1177or how do you know that they are all maintained as you say?
1177or is all this quite incapable of being depicted?
1177or is it anything else?"
1177or that he dispensed with divination?
1177or to a question of arithmetic,"Does twice five make ten?"
1177or to all mankind?
1177or to do what is bad?
1177or what sweet thing art thou acquainted with-- that wilt stir neither hand nor foot to gain it?
1177or where is Critias to be found?
1177or will his power to benefit the community be shortened because the flower of that community are fellow- workers in that work?
1177p. 381:"in regard to the question wherein consists{ to kalon}?"
1177still repeating the same old talk,( 13) Socrates, which I used to hear from you long ago?
1177that you must needs benefit the city, since you desire to reap her honours?
1177the position of the mouth again, close to the eyes and nostrils as a portal of ingress for all the creature''s supplies?
1177this capacity of the front teeth of all animals to cut and of the"grinders"to receive the food and reduce it to pulp?
1177to follow none?
1177to kindle in them rage to meet the enemy?--which things are but stimulants to make stout hearts stouter?
1177what by courage and cowardice?
1177what by sobriety and madness?
1177what is a ruler over men?
1177what is a ruling character?
1177what is a statesman?
1177what is he like?
1177what is impiety?
1177what is your starting- point?
1177what of any others, you may light upon?
1177what of the quarrelsome and factious person( 4) whose main object is to saddle his friends with a host of enemies?
1177what the base?
1177what the ugly?
1177where shall goodwill and faithfulness be found among men?
1177where such a portent of insolence, incontinence, and high- handedness as the other?
1177where then is his liability to the indictment to be found?
1177will not sheer plundering be free to any ruffian who likes?...
1177will you tell me that?
1177would he not be doing what is right?
1177your answer to- day will differ from that of yesterday?
6829''A lion''s skin?''
6829''Ah, talking of superstition, now,''says Eucrates,''that reminds me: what do you make of oracles, for instance, and omens?
6829''And what is to be our course?''
6829''And what were the spirits doing?''
6829''And what,''Arignotus next asked,''is the subject of your learned conversation?
6829''And you can actually make a man out of a pestle to this day?''
6829''Ask one of these brawling bawling censors, And what do_ you_ do?
6829''Confound it, sir,''he might exclaim,''what is the noise about?
6829''Do you suppose,''asked Eucrates,''that he is the only man who has seen such things?
6829''Doing?
6829''Doubt the word of Eucrates, the learned son of Dino?
6829''Have you never noticed as you came in that beautiful one in the court, by Demetrius the portrait- sculptor?''
6829''How long is this to go on?''
6829''In other words, you do not believe in the existence of the Gods, since you maintain that cures can not be wrought by the use of holy names?''
6829''Ion,''said I,''about that one who was so old: did the ambassador snake give him an arm, or had he a stick to lean on?''
6829''Of course I do; but what have wings and eyes to do with one another?''
6829''Oh, you keep a man, do you?''
6829''Perhaps it is the pitchy darkness of the infernal regions that runs in your head?
6829''Perhaps,''I suggested,''it is not Pelichus at all, but Talos the Cretan, the son of Minos?
6829''Twas at the Saturnalia, the day I made that pease- pudding, with the two slices of sausage in it?
6829''Unconsciously, then; what is it?''
6829''Well,''said the proconsul,''I pardon him this time at your request; but if he offends again, what shall I do to him?''
6829''What are we coming to?''
6829''What do you think of my play, Demonax?''
6829''What herds, what waggons have you, Arsacomas?''
6829''What is this I hear?''
6829''What liar took you in like that, sir?''
6829''What of Otus and Ephialtes now?''
6829''What should they be, Lord, but those of absolute reverence, as to the King of all Gods?''
6829''What statue is this?''
6829''What was that about, Arignotus?''
6829''What will you have?''
6829''What, Tychiades,''says Cleodemus, with a faint grin,''you do n''t believe these remedies are good for anything?''
6829''What,''I exclaimed,''you saw this Hyperborean actually flying and walking on water?''
6829''What,''said he,''is my country expecting me to do my duty?''
6829''When are those hecatombs coming?''
6829''Who told you I was a philosopher?''
6829''Why did he not make you a Greek instead?''
6829''Why no more ambrosia?''
6829''Why, you know that you have on an eagle''s right wing?''
6829''Will it surprise you to learn that I am a fellow- craftsman?''
6829), and who wanted people to go for five years without speaking?
6829... No answer?
6829A doctor?
6829A man is saved by art, not by the absence of it?
6829A mathematician?
6829After all, it is natural enough: what should you do but admire these trifles?
6829Again, I suppose you will pass Aristippus of Cyrene as a distinguished philosopher?
6829Again, did not Aristogiton, poor and of mean extraction, as Thucydides describes him, sponge on Harmodius?
6829Ah, Anacharsis, if the love of fair fame were to be wiped out of our lives, what good would remain?
6829Ah, and what are the prizes, now?
6829Ah, yes, tell me about him: they say he is your son?
6829All these effects, and no effecting Providence?
6829All this was food for laughter, as well it might be, to the Indians and their king: Take the field?
6829Am I not even in sleep to find a refuge from Poverty, Poverty more vile than your vile self?
6829Am I not the Sun?
6829And I?
6829And did you like being a man best, or receiving the addresses of Pericles?
6829And everything moves casually, by blind tendency?
6829And have you grappled with Aristophanes and Eupolis?
6829And her name?
6829And how are you going to do that?
6829And how big, now, did the towns and the people look from there?
6829And how should that be?
6829And in Scythia''good men''receive sacrifice just the same as Gods?
6829And in what form was your spirit next clothed, after it had put off Pythagoras?
6829And is it in your power to unspin what they have spun?
6829And now look at it from the patron''s point of view; does he get his money''s worth?
6829And now what about those many points in which your art is superior to Rhetoric and Philosophy?
6829And now, what are we to do?
6829And pleasure a good?
6829And the regulation of the universe is not under any God''s care?
6829And then in the dining- room, where is his match, to jest or to eat?
6829And this being so, why should not the same principles be extended further?''
6829And we may call a sponger an out- diner?
6829And what am I going to be next?
6829And what are his other doings, to which all your household are witnesses?''
6829And what do I want with a garlanded column over my grave?
6829And what good do you suppose you are going to do by pouring wine on it?
6829And what if he has?
6829And what is the result?
6829And what makes Simon so pale?
6829And what more natural than that she should love poetry, and make it her chief study?
6829And what of him?
6829And what was his reason?
6829And what wonder, if the fairest of Ionian cities has given birth to the fairest of women?''
6829And what would you have me do, my boy?
6829And when you were Pythagoras?
6829And where shall I begin?
6829And who is this Syrian?
6829And whom does he send to dwell with the heroes?
6829And why?
6829And will you scout Euripides too, then?
6829And you never even asked her name?
6829And your versatility has even changed sexes?
6829And, Pan,--have they become more virtuous under the hands of the philosophers?
6829Antisthenes?
6829Archilochus?
6829Are not these admirable deeds, and shall not the doers be counted as Gods by all who esteem prowess?
6829Are the Gods going to push Destiny aside and make a bid for government?
6829Are the prizes too small?
6829Are we to understand that you possess literary discernment without the assistance of any study?
6829Are you afraid I shall be suffocated in the confinement of the tomb?
6829Are you counting upon Atticus and Callinus, the copyists, to put in a good word for you?
6829Are you going to retract what you said?
6829Are you going to tell me that a man who finds out that he is to die by a steel point can escape the doom by shutting himself up?
6829Are you merely seizing an opportunity of displaying your wealth?
6829Are you now to learn that freedom from hunger and thirst is better than meat and drink, and insensibility to cold better than plenty of clothes?
6829Are you now to learn that life and death are the highest considerations among mankind?
6829As for Momus, what is dishonour to him?
6829As he went, he put questions to me about earthly affairs, beginning with, What was wheat a quarter in Greece?
6829Ask them, Where is Demosthenes now?
6829Asked whether he ate honey- cakes,''Do you suppose,''he said,''that bees only make honey for fools?''
6829At this moment of depression-- I was very near tears-- who should come up behind me but Empedocles the physicist?
6829Banqueter was the word used for sponger in his day; what does he say?
6829Because he wants the art which would enable him to save his life?
6829Blasphemer, have you ever been a voyage?
6829But I am rather curious on one point: what are your favourite books among so many?
6829But Zeus bent upon me a Titanic glance, awful, penetrating, and spoke: Who art thou?
6829But all this lamentation, now; this fluting and beating of breasts; these wholly disproportionate wailings: how am I the better for it all?
6829But in----?
6829But perhaps you will doubt my word too?''
6829But proceed, son of Mnesarchus: how came you to change from man to bird, from Samos to Tanagra?
6829But that_ Philosophy_ should lack unity, and even conflict with itself like instruments out of tune-- how can that be tolerated?
6829But there: what need to go back to Orpheus and Neanthus?
6829But they only jeered at me:''Are you going to lie all day about our country and our river, pray?
6829But what I want to know is, how did it happen?
6829But what about your transformations?
6829But what are you laughing at?
6829But what brings you here, Hermes?
6829But what could you find to admire in Orestes and Pylades, that you should exalt them to godhead?
6829But what do you expect from them?
6829But what is the use of that?
6829But what is your solution of the problem?
6829But what made you ask me about the Fates?
6829But what matter what her head was like, or that every one knew how a long illness had treated her?
6829But what put it into your head to make that law about meat and beans?
6829But what sort of a guess do you make at the sponger''s behaviour in war?
6829But what were you going to say about Simon?
6829But when it comes to national lies, when one finds whole cities bouncing collectively like one man, how is one to keep one''s countenance?
6829But who is this breathless messenger?
6829But why deal in conjecture when there are facts to hand?
6829But why not?
6829But would that be quite a worthy conception of divine beings?
6829But would you mind giving a name to all this?
6829But you may well despise me: why do I sit here listening to all this, with my thunder- bolt beneath my arm?
6829By the way, do all who enter get them?
6829By your leave I will proceed to apply the two definitions to what I wrote; which of them fits it?
6829Call in the painters, perhaps, selecting those who were noted for their skill in mixing and laying on their colours?
6829Can we doubt that he is in the right of it?
6829Can you doubt that he who cures the ague may also inflict it at will?''
6829Can you explain it?
6829Can you give me any more?
6829Can you help me to it?
6829Can you match that, friend?
6829Can your sapience point to any single convenience of life, of which we are deprived in the lower world?
6829Come, my fine fellow, is it not all ridiculous?
6829Consider; will Croesus''s passage of the Halys destroy his own realm, or Cyrus''s?
6829Contempt?
6829Could any man be more abominably misused?
6829Cower ye confounded at these momentous tidings?
6829Did it all happen as Homer describes?
6829Did you ever go through the_ Baptae_[ Footnote: See Cotytto in Notes.]?
6829Did you ever hear of Pythagoras of Samos, son of Mnesarchus?
6829Dining out, in fact?
6829Dinomachus, for instance, wanted to know''how big were the Goddess''s dogs?''
6829Do the Fates also control you Gods?
6829Do you close your ears even to Zeus''s thunder, atheist?
6829Do you ever read the speech of Aeschines against Timarchus?
6829Do you know what I think we had better do, Hermes?
6829Do you recognize the distinction between_ differentia_ and_ indifferentia_?
6829Do you see him?
6829Do you see?
6829Do you suppose we do not know how to account for your annoyance?
6829Do you teach rhetoric, then?
6829Do_ you_ depend from their thread?
6829Does a man commit a murder?
6829Does he rob a temple?
6829Does he think we all hail from Miletus or Samos?
6829Does not such ingratitude as this render him liable to the penalties imposed by the marriage- laws?
6829Doth none rise?
6829Dream, my good man?
6829Drink, open the case.... Not a word?
6829Ever since we were united in friendship, are we not one flesh?
6829Everything proceeds from the Fates, you say?
6829Fine promises, these, are they not?
6829For her stature, let it be that of Cnidian_ Aphrodite_; once more we have recourse to Praxiteles.--What think you, Polystratus?
6829Gentlemen, can you tolerate such sentiments?
6829Gold the only thing you can find to admire?
6829Ha, ha, friend cock, have I learnt to turn a simile already?
6829Had I not some reason to be annoyed with you?
6829Has Earth produced a new brood of giants?
6829Have I misunderstood your figure, or is this a fair deduction from it?
6829Have the Titans broken their chains, overpowered their guards, and taken up arms against us once more?
6829Have you any preference among our Gods?
6829Have you important news from Earth?
6829Have you thought better of it?
6829Heracles''s right hand is occupied with the club, and his left with the bow: how is he to hold the ends of the chains?
6829Here we are; what do I do next?
6829Hermes, is it in order that this dog- faced Egyptian person should sit in front of me, Posidon?
6829Hermes, of all people, grudge a man a little thievery?
6829Hipponax?
6829Homer may go hang: what does a babbling poet know about dreams?
6829Honour bright?
6829How are we to cure Timocles of the impediment in his speech?
6829How are you to know the difference between genuine old books that are worth money, and trash whose only merit is that it is falling to pieces?
6829How did you manage, then?
6829How do I know that these cures are brought about by the means to which you attribute them?
6829How do they go?
6829How do you develop perfect virtue out of clay and training?
6829How do you make that out?
6829How do you make that out?
6829How is that?
6829How should that be?
6829How so?
6829How so?
6829How their theories conflict is soon apparent; next- door neighbours?
6829How was he punished?
6829How was he to resist this pretty woman, with her captivating manners, her well- timed tears, her parenthetic sighs?
6829How would the God of Friendship meet the case?
6829How?
6829However;--what was your sex next time?
6829Hush, Pan: was not that Hermes making the proclamation?
6829I answered all these questions, and he proceeded:--''Tell me, Menippus, what are men''s feelings towards me?''
6829I cried;''Hippocrates must have sacrifices, must he?
6829I exclaimed;''so he was a doctor too?''
6829I expect you had a pleasant time of it, living on the very fat of the land?
6829I shall throw you out, perhaps, if I keep on calling you different things?
6829I suppose you did not happen to see Socrates or Plato among the Shades?''
6829I thought bath- time would never come; I could not keep my eyes off the dial: where was the shadow now?
6829I tremble for their fate: were they drowned, or did some miraculous providence deliver them?
6829I want to know whether you have a profession of any sort; for instance, are you a musician?
6829I''m not easy about all that plate either: what if some one should knock a hole in the wall, and make off with it?
6829If he is, does he get them out of his own means, or from some one else?
6829If in praising a dog one should remark that it was bigger than a fox or a cat, would you regard him as a skilful panegyrist?
6829If the truth must out, we sit here with a single eye to one thing-- does a man sacrifice and feed the altars fat?
6829In Heaven''s name, what does he expect to get from him?
6829In the daytime, or at night?
6829In the name of goodness, Menippus, what are these astronomical sums you are doing under your breath?
6829Indeed?
6829Is a war- tax to be levied?
6829Is he clever?
6829Is it a lovely portrait?
6829Is it all true that they sing of Destiny and the Fates-- that whatever they spin for a man at his birth must inevitably come about?
6829Is it because I am not a bald, bent, wrinkled old cripple like yourself?
6829Is it equal to that of the Fates?
6829Is it just your way of showing the public that you can afford to spend money even on things that are of no use to you?
6829Is it with tales like these that Homer has prevailed on you?
6829Is she a Fate too?
6829Is that so very portentous?
6829Is the inheritance to your liking?
6829Is the love of gold so absorbing a passion?
6829Is this one of the things it is not proper for me to know?
6829Is your name Zeus, or not?
6829It follows that, if sponging was the negative of art, the sponger would not save his life by its means?
6829It makes me quite angry: what satisfaction can there be to men of their good qualities in deceiving themselves and their neighbours?
6829Know you not that an Emperor has many eyes and many ears?
6829Letters we know, Medicine we know; Sponging?
6829May we pass this as one of my five?
6829Moreover, sponging is not to be classed with beauty and strength, and so called a quality instead of an art?
6829My Pythagoras no better than he should be?
6829My gallant cock has positively laid eggs in his time?
6829My son, why this haste?
6829Namely----?
6829Names?
6829Nay, we can do better: have we not Homer, best of painters, though a Euphranor and an Apelles be present?
6829Need I point out the useful purposes that gold serves?
6829Need I say more?
6829No, no; you answer my question first; what makes you believe in them?
6829Nor can we blame them: they are but men; how should they know truth, when the divinity whose mouthpieces they were is departed from them?
6829Now even granting that you do, what is the use of knowing what one has to expect, when one can by no possibility take any precautions?
6829Now for the horses and dogs and frogs and fishes: how did you like that kind of thing?
6829Now that ship would not have sailed, without a steersman; and do you suppose that this great universe drifts unsteered and uncontrolled?
6829Now there, madam, you are unreasonable: how can he possibly make a dialogue of it all by himself?
6829Now what good can they get out of it?
6829Now, Hermes, Hera, Athene, what is our course?
6829Now, Syrian: what do you say to that?
6829Now, Toxaris: do you mean to tell me that you people actually_ sacrifice_ to Orestes and Pylades?
6829Now, honestly, Mnesippus, does not that doubt look a little like envy?
6829Now, now: weeping?
6829Now, what do you say to this proposal?
6829Now, what do you think is the way to sharpen your sight?''
6829Of course you know that?
6829Of these pairs, which do you consider the best?
6829Oh, I see; using stars to steer by, like the Phoenicians?
6829Oh, not_ all_ the altars; what harm do they do, so long as incense and perfume is the worst of it?
6829Oh, yes, no doubt;_ he_ called Apollo rich,''rolling in gold''; but now where will you find Apollo?
6829Or again with the hurry of business-- fiscal-- legal-- military?
6829Or are they passed over in favour of the orators?
6829Or did you put your trust in Artemis?
6829Orders to be issued, treaties to be drawn up, estimates to be formed?
6829Our Menippus a literal godsend from Heaven?
6829Perhaps a trade is more in your way; are you a carpenter or cobbler?
6829Philocles, what_ is_ it that makes most men so fond of a lie?
6829Philosophers caring to sponge?
6829Philosophers?
6829Plato?
6829Possess us; are not we thine own familiars?
6829Pray when are they likely to have time to spare for me?
6829Put on your clothes?
6829Pythagoras has carded and spun?
6829Pythagoras the mistress-- and the mother-- of a Pericles?
6829Reel off the exordium in Homer?
6829Ride or out- ride, shoot or out- shoot?
6829Sacrifice to them?
6829Scant and broken sleep, troubled dreams, perplexities, forebodings?
6829Seriously now, are not these refinements of yours all child''s play-- something for your idle, slack youngsters to do?
6829Shall I proceed, or is the inference clear?
6829Shall an Ethiopian change his skin?
6829Shall we take war time first, and see who will do best for himself and for his city under those conditions?
6829Similarly, if a man involuntarily performed a good action, he would not reward him?
6829So I presume an out- diner is better than a diner?
6829So he came and asked him:''Who, pray, are you, that you should pour scorn upon me?''
6829So his supplies will never run short?
6829So mighty is the issue; believe me, it behoves us all to search out salvation; and where lies salvation?
6829So sponging is an art, eh?
6829So sponging is an art?
6829So you are a sponger?
6829So, if sponging has all these marks, it must be an art?
6829Solon, did Lycurgus take his whippings at the fighting age, or did he make these spirited regulations on the safe basis of superannuation?
6829Some one tried to make a fool of him by asking, If I burn a hundred pounds of wood, how many pounds of smoke shall I get?
6829Sponging is an old word; what does it really mean?
6829Still busy with vain phantoms, chasing a visionary happiness through your head, that''fleeting''joy, as the poet calls it?
6829Suppose a man commits a crime accidentally: does he punish him just the same?
6829Surely you know, Cyniscus, what punishments await the evil- doers after death, and how happy will be the lot of the righteous?
6829Take an instance: if a man who did not understand navigation took charge of a ship in a stormy sea, would he be safe?
6829Tell me, then, and be damned to you, do you deny that the Gods exercise providence?
6829Than mine?
6829That is how things go on board your ship, sir wiseacre; and who shall count the wrecks?
6829That is not the case; the greater the drain upon it in the course of exercise, the greater the supply; did you ever hear a story about the Hydra?
6829That venerably bearded sexagenarian, with his philosophic leanings?
6829The innocent?
6829The possession of gold the sole happiness?
6829The resentments of courtiers and the machinations of conspirators?
6829The sophist had not had enough;''_ You_ are no infant,''he went on,''but a philosopher, it seems; may one ask what marks the transformation?''
6829Then when Homer says, for instance, in another place, Lest unto Hell thou go,_ outstripping Fate_, he is talking nonsense, of course?
6829Then when I slew the lion or the Hydra, was I only the Fates''instrument?
6829Then who was I, do you know?
6829Then you have seen the_ Aphrodite_, of course?
6829There are three Fates, are there not,--Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropus?
6829There is a nasty sound about the word sponger, do n''t you think?
6829They were strangers to you: strangers, did I say?
6829This is something like friendship, is it not,--to accept such a bequest as this, and to show such respect for a friend''s last wishes?
6829This was no earthly vision, Lycinus; surely she must have dropped from the clouds.--And what was she doing?
6829To Simon''s?
6829To hear you, one might think it was Polus or Aristodemus, not Zeus; and why, pray, if something of that sort is not bothering you?
6829To run or out- run?
6829To what end the gluing and the trimming, the cedar- oil and saffron, the leather cases and the bosses?
6829Wait a minute: have I ever been changed in this way?
6829Was Democritus alarmed at the ghosts?
6829Was not this advice superfluous, seeing that the end must come?
6829Was your patient a second Epimenides?''
6829Well now, is the number of friendships to be limited, or does wealth of instances itself constitute one claim to superiority?
6829Well then, you must surely have come on some embarrassing home- truths in that play?
6829Well then: you know your Homer and Hesiod, of course?
6829Well, Cyniscus?
6829Well, Justice: yonder is our road: straight in the line for Sunium, to the foot of Hymettus, taking Parnes on our right; you see those two hills?
6829Well, Pythagoras,--or is there any other name you prefer?
6829Well, Rhetoric, when are you going to begin?
6829Well, and Achilles: was he so much better than other people, or is that all stuff and nonsense?
6829Well, and why did you not copy Lycurgus and whip your young men?
6829Well, but all men-- ay, all nations-- have acknowledged and, feted Gods; was it all delusion?
6829Well, but is the appropriation of what belongs to others no offence?
6829Well, but-- will they come?
6829Well, how shall we manage?
6829Well, never mind; what was she like?
6829Well, the sponger does that; why is he privileged to offend?
6829Well, what am I to do?
6829Well, what is Art?
6829Well, who will dare dispute_ my_ claim?
6829Well, you will let me describe as civil scenes the market, the courts, the wrestling- schools and gymnasia, the hunting field and the dining- room?
6829Well?
6829Were you ever at Cnidus?
6829What about these two charges just brought against a rhetorician?
6829What about this?
6829What about your friend Eucrates?
6829What answer is possible to such ribaldry?
6829What are they?
6829What are we to say they are doing?
6829What are you laughing at, Anacharsis?
6829What can save you then?
6829What can the matter be, then?
6829What can you mean?
6829What could induce me, misguided insect that I was, to leave that life without so much as a grain of gold- dust to supply my needs in this one?
6829What did I tell you, Gods?
6829What do you mean by hounding them against me?
6829What do you say?
6829What do you think of him, Toxaris?
6829What do you think?
6829What else of godlike and sublime was in their conduct?
6829What harm did these men do?
6829What has a refined bewitching orator to do with the vulgar masculine?
6829What impression does one get of the sponger''s actual life, when one compares it with the other?
6829What is a henchman, slaves and friends being excluded?
6829What is it that Pindar says about gold?
6829What is it?
6829What is that?
6829What is the exact contribution to it of dust and summersaults?
6829What is the matter?
6829What is the meaning of this?
6829What is this Providence?
6829What is your idea, now, in all this rolling and unrolling of scrolls?
6829What matter, friend?
6829What need to mention that the most religious race on earth, the Egyptian, never tires of divine names?
6829What say the poets?
6829What shall I do, Zeus?
6829What should he know of the matter?
6829What sort of a dinner was it?
6829What was Tibius doing with those fine great kippers yesterday?
6829What will be the result?
6829What will she make of it, I wonder?
6829What will the defendant have to say to that, I wonder?
6829What will thine utterance be?
6829What, Eucrates, of all credible witnesses?
6829What, Hermes?
6829What, Zeus?
6829What, are all the events we see uncontrolled, then?
6829What, still puzzling over the import of a dream?
6829What, without meat or drink?
6829What, you miscreant, no Gods?
6829What, you turned into a hawk or a crow on the sly?
6829What?
6829When a speaker passes over essential matters in silence, has the court no penalty for him?
6829When any one asks what the art is, how do we describe it?
6829When do you do your reading?
6829When he talks like that, do you take offence and fling the book away, or has_ he_ your licence to expatiate in panegyric?
6829Whence comes this resistless plague among us?
6829Where he tells how the daughter, the brother, and the wife of Zeus conspired to imprison him?
6829Where is my dagger?
6829Where is our handsome musician now?
6829Where is the right thing to be found?
6829Where is your military gymnasium, then?
6829Where shall we go first?
6829Wherefore thus brooding, Zeus?
6829Which is to be first?
6829Which is----?
6829Which one?
6829Which would you take, if you had the choice?-To sail, or to out- sail?
6829Who are they, and what is the extent of their power?
6829Who are you, that you should protest in the Gods''name?
6829Who ever came away from dinner in tears?
6829Who is she, and whence?
6829Who is umpire?
6829Who of womankind shall be compared to her In comeliness, in wit, in goodly works?
6829Who was that?
6829Who will sacrifice to you, if he does not expect to profit by it?
6829Who wins?
6829Who wins?
6829Who would care to do a glorious deed?
6829Who would dare attempt such a thing, with him tasting your food and drink?
6829Who would not despise the city whose guards are such miserable creatures?
6829Who would not go through this amount of preparatory toil, and take his chance of a choking or a dislocation, for apples or parsley?
6829Whom but the wicked?
6829Whom does he punish in particular?
6829Why are you so sorry for me?
6829Why do you smile?
6829Why do your young men behave like this, Solon?
6829Why does not the official there separate them and put an end to it?
6829Why seize upon the rising generation so young, and subject them to such toils?
6829Why that ribald laughter, Momus?
6829Why, Tychiades, what else was Patroclus''s relation to Achilles?
6829Why, have you ever known any one with such a strong natural turn for lying?
6829Why, how would you like it done?
6829Why, if these were ruined, how could the orators ever make another speech, with the best of their stock- in- trade taken from them?
6829Why, now?
6829Why, what means this?
6829Why, what sane man would call sponging a profession?
6829Why, who would believe the story, when I told him that I had it from a cock?
6829Why, you must know Pan, most festive of all Dionysus''s followers?
6829Why?
6829Why?
6829Will Apollo''s answer to the Lydian suit you?
6829Will he be converted there and then into a stalwart, comely warrior, clearing the river at a bound, and staining its waters with Phrygian blood?
6829Will he prove a slayer of Asteropaeuses and Lycaons, and finally of Hectors, he who can not so much as bear Achilles''s spear upon his shoulders?
6829Will she contrive to put all these different types together without their clashing?
6829Will you allow Homer to have been an admirable poet?
6829Will you have it all?
6829Will you never stop?
6829Will you remember to tell Zeus all this?
6829Wind and Scimetar not Gods?
6829With a whirr and a crash Let the levin- bolt dash-- Ah, whither?
6829With fear and suspicion?
6829With whom does it lie to check and remedy this state of things?
6829Would you have me break in?
6829Would_ you_ have stood it, when that fisherman from Oreus stole your trident at Geraestus?
6829Yes, I think you have dealt with that point sufficiently; apart from that, how do you show the inferiority of Philosophy to your art?
6829Yes, you have proved him a good man; but can you show him to have been not Achilles''s friend, but a sponger?
6829Yes?
6829Yes?
6829Yes?
6829Yet begin I will; how can I draw back when she is there?
6829Yet surely nothing could be clearer: who could observe such a man at work, and abstain from the inevitable allusion to pearls and swine?
6829Yet what right have_ I_ to complain?
6829You doubt of that judgement- seat before which every soul is arraigned?
6829You have quite forgotten the way, I suppose, in all this time?
6829You hesitate?
6829You hold toil to be an evil?
6829You know Ion?
6829You know how confident and impressive I always was as a public speaker?
6829You know my neighbour and fellow craftsman, Simon, who supped with me not long since?
6829You leave us nothing, then?
6829You must be jesting, Posidon; you can not have forgotten that we have no say in the matter?
6829You must pluck out the feather first.... What''s this?
6829You retire; you confess yourself beaten, then?
6829You said that there were eunuchs in her train?
6829You tell me, cock, that you have been a king yourself: now how did_ you_ find the life?
6829You will admit that, if the principle of your life is to be pleasure, all your appetites have to be satisfied?
6829You will agree with me that colour and tone have a good deal to do with beauty?
6829You will deny all that too, of course?
6829You will not grudge me that privilege?
6829You would deprive even the Fates of honour?
6829You would have me return to Earth, once more to be driven thence in ignominious flight by the intolerable taunts of Injustice?
6829Your authority for all this, pray?
6829Your jealousy will not take alarm at the prospect of a rival petrifaction at your side?
6829Zeus has sent me down, Pan, to preside in the law- court.--And how do you like Athens?
6829], and for all these ages has enjoyed the blessings of perfect order in this ancient city?
6829]: yet I take it that the incompetence of their respective owners will be made clear; am I right?
6829_ Dear sir, was it Apollo sent you here?
6829_ Will you sit in the porch, when there is a_ parvys_ to hand?
6829_"You?
6829a relic from the time of Minos?''
6829accept the verdict and hold my tongue?
6829and did the vegetables want more rain?
6829and how was night possible in Heaven, with the sun always there taking his share of the good cheer?
6829and the Portico thrown in, with the Miltiades and Cynaegirus on the field of Marathon?
6829and your teeth chattering?
6829and, if so, what else can possibly annoy you but love?
6829are not our joys and our sorrows the same?
6829array their hosts against him?
6829asked Arignotus, scowling upon me;''you deny the existence of the supernatural, when there is scarcely a man who has not seen some evidence of it?''
6829between_ praeposita_ and_ rejecta_?
6829by what right?
6829could I go yet?
6829destroy all those people for one man''s wickedness?
6829did he call me best of rhetoricians, as when Chaerephon asked and was told who was wisest of his generation?
6829did you like the idea of falling into the sea, and giving us a_ Mare Menippeum_ after the precedent of the_ Icarium_?
6829do you expect it to filter through all the way to Hades?
6829do you take them for Gods?
6829had we suffered much from cold last winter?
6829he exclaimed;''can he not hear at this distance?''
6829he must be feasted with all pomp and circumstance, and punctually to the day, or his leechship is angry?
6829here on Areopagus I am to give juries to outsiders, who ought to be tried on the other side of the Euphrates?
6829hold a session at once?
6829how big am I?
6829how did I come to leave out so essential a particular?
6829how do you make good men of them?
6829in God''s name, what shall we call_ your_ contribution to progress?
6829is he engaging?
6829is that the trouble?
6829like yourself?''
6829no Providence?
6829nor again why Socrates was handed over to the Eleven instead of Meletus?
6829of inspired utterances, of voices from the shrine, of the priestess''s prophetic lines?
6829or greater perhaps?
6829or is workmanship to count most?
6829or shall we say next year?
6829or some greater, a mistress of the Fates?
6829or will you grant an appeal?
6829pale?
6829pen a palinode like Stesichorus?
6829people with beards just like mine; sepulchral beings, who are always getting together and jabbering?
6829perhaps, like Hesiod, you received a laurel- branch from the Muses?
6829shall I be able to live with them?
6829shall they let wounds or weariness or discomfort incapacitate them before there is need?
6829so bald, so plain, so prosy an announcement-- on this momentous occasion?
6829that black should_ be_ black, white be white, and red play its blushing part?
6829the eunuch a concubine, the landsman an oar, the pilot a plough?
6829then, Polystratus, I beheld teeth whose whiteness, whose unbroken regularity, who shall describe?
6829they said;''we never saw a coachman spilt; and where are the poplars?
6829what has Dialogue but his cloak?
6829where do you find the source of oracles and prophecies, if not in the Gods and their Providence?
6829where thy city?
6829wherefore apart, And palely pacing, as Earth''s sages use?
6829who thy kin?
6829why am I gibbous?
6829why am I halved?
6829why so vexed?
6829why, do you suppose, if it was true, we would row or tow up stream for sixpences?
6829will he acquit himself creditably?
6829with the schoolroom it is different; or who ever went out to dinner with the dismal expression characteristic of going to school?
6829would his acquisition leave him any wiser than it found him?
6829you do not blush to call yourself a sponger?
6829you doubt that there are punishments and rewards to come?
13316Adipiscuntur igitur boni quod appetunt?
13316Ambulandi,inquit,"motum secundum naturam esse hominibus num negabis?"
13316An etiam causas, cur i d ita sit, deprehendisti?
13316An,inquit illa,"te alumne desererem nec sarcinam quam mei nominis inuidia sustulisti, communicato tecum labore partirer?
13316And doth not a man want that,quoth she,"which he desireth?"
13316And how can it be that, knowing the beginning, thou canst be ignorant of the end? 13316 And it is many ways clear that the vicious are miserable?"
13316And makest thou any doubt that the function of it doth naturally belong to the feet?
13316And what of the other which, being unpleasing, restraineth the evil with just punishment, doth not the people think it good?
13316And what other manner shall this be,quoth I,"besides these?"
13316And wilt thou doubt that he could, whom thou seest bring to pass what he desired?
13316Atqui non egeret eo, nisi possideret pecuniam quam posset amittere?
13316Atqui scis unde cuncta processerint?
13316Bona igitur?
13316But dost thou grant that all that is good is good by partaking goodness?
13316But he should not need that help, unless he had money which he might lose?
13316But he that wanteth anything is not altogether sufficient of himself?
13316But it is granted that the chiefest good is blessedness?
13316But knowest thou from whence all things had their beginning?
13316But that fortune which either exerciseth or correcteth is profitable?
13316But what account wilt thou make,quoth she,"to know what goodness itself is?"
13316Can God do evil?
13316Deniest thou,quoth she,"that every wicked man deserveth punishment?"
13316Do we not think,quoth she,"that blessedness is good?"
13316Dost thou ask me if I know that I am a reasonable and mortal living creature? 13316 Dost thou imagine that there is any mortal or frail thing which can cause this happy estate?"
13316Dost thou not think then that that is good which is profitable?
13316Egebit igitur,inquit,"extrinsecus petito praesidio quo suam pecuniam quisque tueatur?"
13316Eget uero,inquit,"eo quod quisque desiderat?"
13316Eiusque rei pedum officium esse naturale num dubitas?
13316Essene aliquid in his mortalibus caducisque rebus putas quod huiusmodi statum possit afferre?
13316Est igitur,inquit,"aliquis qui omnia posse homines putet?"
13316Estne igitur,inquit,"quod in quantum naturaliter agat relicta subsistendi appetentia uenire ad interitum corruptionemque desideret?"
13316Et qui fieri potest, ut principio cognito quis sit rerum finis ignores? 13316 Et qui i d,"inquam,"fieri potest?"
13316Et quid,inquam,"tu in has exilii nostri solitudines o omnium magistra uirtutum supero cardine delapsa uenisti?
13316Et quis erit,inquam,"praeter hos alius modus?"
13316Hast thou also understood the causes why it is so?
13316Have we not granted,quoth she,"that the good are happy, and the evil miserable?"
13316Hocine interrogas an esse me sciam rationale animal atque mortale? 13316 How can that be?"
13316How is this?
13316How?
13316How?
13316How?
13316If then,quoth she,"thou wert to examine this cause, whom wouldest thou appoint to be punished, him that did or that suffered wrong?"
13316Illius igitur praesentiam huius absentiam desiderabas?
13316Is the One the same as the Other?
13316Is there any then,quoth she,"that think that men can do all things?"
13316Is there anything,quoth she,"that in the course of nature, leaving the desire of being, seeketh to come to destruction and corruption?"
13316It is good then?
13316Ita est,inquam,"Quae uero aut exercet aut corrigit, prodest?"
13316Nonne igitur bonum censes esse quod prodest?
13316Nonne quia uel aberat quod abesse non uelles uel aderat quod adesse noluisses?
13316Nonne,inquit,"beatitudinem bonum esse censemus?"
13316Nostine igitur,inquit,"omne quod est tam diu manere atque subsistere quam diu sit unum, sed interire atque dissolui pariter atque unum destiterit?"
13316Now thinkest thou, that which is of this sort ought to be despised, or rather that it is worthy to be respected above all other things?
13316Now, what sayest thou to that pleasing fortune which is given in reward to the good, doth the common people account it bad?
13316Num igitur deus facere malum potest?
13316Num me,inquit,"fefellit abesse aliquid, per quod, uelut hiante ualli robore, in animum tuum perturbationum morbus inrepserit?
13316Num recordaris beatitudinem ipsum esse bonum eoque modo, cum beatitudo petitur, ab omnibus desiderari bonum?
13316O te alumne hac opinione felicem, si quidem hoc,inquit,"adieceris....""Quidnam?"
13316Omnem,inquit,"improbum num supplicio dignum negas?"
13316Omnes igitur homines boni pariter ac mali indiscreta intentione ad bonum peruenire nituntur?
13316Quae igitur cum discrepant minime bona sunt, cum uero unum esse coeperint, bona fiunt; nonne haec ut bona sint, unitatis fieri adeptione contingit?
13316Quaenam,inquit,"ista est?
13316Quem uero effecisse quod uoluerit uideas, num etiam potuisse dubitabis?
13316Qui igitur supplicio digni sunt miseros esse non dubitas?
13316Qui uero eget aliquo, non est usquequaque sibi ipse sufficiens?
13316Qui?
13316Quid igitur homo sit, poterisne proferre?
13316Quid igitur,inquam,"nihilne est quod uel casus uel fortuitum iure appellari queat?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid reliqua, quae cum sit aspera, iusto supplicio malos coercet, num bonam populus putat?
13316Quid uero iucunda, quae in praemium tribuitur bonis, num uulgus malam esse decernit?
13316Quid uero,inquit,"obscurumne hoc atque ignobile censes esse an omni celebritate clarissimum?
13316Quid?
13316Quid?
13316Quid?
13316Quid?
13316Quid?
13316Quidnam?
13316Quidnam?
13316Quidni fateare, cum eam cotidie ualentior aliquis eripiat inuito? 13316 Quidni,"inquam,"meminerim?"
13316Quidni?
13316Quidni?
13316Quidni?
13316Quis i d neget?
13316Quis i d,inquam,"neget?"
13316Quod igitur nullius egeat alieni, quod suis cuncta uiribus possit, quod sit clarum atque reuerendum, nonne hoc etiam constat esse laetissimum?
13316Quod si conetur,ait,"num tandem proficiet quidquam aduersus eum quem iure beatitudinis potentissimum esse concessimus?"
13316Quod uero huiusmodi sit, spernendumne esse censes an contra rerum omnium ueneratione dignissimum?
13316Quonam modo?
13316Quonam,inquam"modo?"
13316Quonam,inquam,"modo?"
13316Quonam,inquam,"modo?"
13316Quonam?
13316Sed dic mihi, quoniam deo mundum regi non ambigis, quibus etiam gubernaculis regatur aduertis?
13316Sed omne quod bonum est boni participatione bonum esse concedis an minime?
13316Sentisne,inquit,"haec atque animo inlabuntur tuo, an[ Greek: onos luras]?
13316Shall we,quoth she,"frame our speech to the vulgar phrase, lest we seem to have as it were forsaken the use of human conversation?"
13316Should I,saith she,"forsake thee, my disciple, and not divide the burden, which thou bearest through hatred of my name, by partaking of thy labour?
13316Si igitur cognitor,ait,"resideres, cui supplicium inferendum putares, eine qui fecisset an qui pertulisset iniuriam?"
13316So that every man needeth some other help to defend his money?
13316So that thou feltest this insufficiency, even the height of thy wealth?
13316The offerer of the injury then would seem to thee more miserable than the receiver?
13316Then thou desiredst the presence of that, and the absence of this?
13316Then you do not doubt that those who deserve punishment are wretched?
13316Those things, then, which, when they differ, are not good and when they are one, become good, are they not made good by obtaining unity?
13316Tu itaque hanc insufficientiam plenus,inquit,"opibus sustinebas?"
13316Understandest thou these things,saith she,"and do they make impression in thy mind?
13316Visne igitur,inquit,"paulisper uulgi sermonibus accedamus, ne nimium uelut ab humanitatis usu recessisse uideamur?"
13316Was it not because thou either wantedst something which thou wouldst have had, or else hadst something which thou wouldst have wanted?
13316Well then, canst thou explicate what man is?
13316What if anything doth endeavour,quoth she,"can anything prevail against Him, whom we have granted to be most powerful by reason of His blessedness?"
13316What is that?
13316What is that?
13316What now,quoth she,"thinkest thou this to be obscure and base, or rather most excellent and famous?
13316What then,quoth I,"is there nothing that can rightly be called chance or fortune?
13316What then?
13316What?
13316What?
13316What?
13316What?
13316What?
13316What?
13316What?
13316Whither?
13316Who can deny that?
13316Who denies that?
13316Why not?
13316Why not?
13316Why not?
13316Why should I not remember it?
13316Why shouldst thou not grant it, since that every day those which are more potent take it from others perforce? 13316 Why?"
13316Wilt thou deny,quoth she,"that the motion of walking is agreeable to the nature of men?"
13316''For what cause, O man, chargest thou me with daily complaints?
13316''Quid tu homo ream me cotidianis agis querelis?
1331610 Quid tantum miseri saeuos tyrannos Mirantur sine uiribus furentes?
1331610 Sed cur tanto flagrat amore Veri tectas reperire notas?
1331610 Vis aptam meritis uicem referre?
1331615 Quis enim quidquam nescius optet Aut quis ualeat nescita sequi?
1331620 Quid me felicem totiens iactastis amici?
133165 An nulla est discordia ueris Semperque sibi certa cohaerent?
13316Agnoscisne me?
13316Am I deceived in this?
13316An claritudo nihili pendenda est?
13316An cum mentem cerneret altam, 20 Pariter summam et singula norat?
13316An distant quia dissidentque mores, Iniustas acies et fera bella mouent Alternisque uolunt perire telis?
13316An ego sola meum ius exercere prohibebor?
13316An est aliquid, tametsi uulgus lateat, cui uocabula ista conueniant?"
13316An gemmarum fulgor oculos trahit?
13316An ignoras illam tuae ciuitatis antiquissimam legem, qua sanctum est ei ius exulare non esse quisquis in ea sedem fundare maluerit?
13316An illos accusatores iustos fecit praemissa damnatio?
13316An in bonis non est numeranda potentia?
13316An optasse illius ordinis salutem nefas uocabo?
13316An praesidio sunt amici quos non uirtus sed fortuna conciliat?
13316An quia inrationabiles substantiae non possunt habere personam qua[64] Christi uocabulum excipere possint[65]?
13316An scientes uolentesque bonum deserunt, ad uitia deflectunt?
13316An sectanda nouerunt?
13316An tu aliter existimas?"
13316An tu arbitraris quod nihilo indigeat egere potentia?"
13316An tu in hanc uitae scaenam nunc primum subitus hospesque uenisti?
13316An tu mores ignorabas meos?
13316An tu potentem censes quem uideas uelle quod non possit efficere?
13316An ubi Romani nominis transire fama nequit, Romani hominis gloria progredietur?
13316An uel si amiserit, neglegendum putat?
13316An uernis floribus ipse distingueris aut tua in aestiuos fructus intumescit ubertas?
13316An uero te longus ordo famulorum facit esse felicem?
13316An uero tu pretiosam aestimas abituram felicitatem?
13316An uos agrorum pulchritudo delectat?
13316An ut tu quoque mecum rea falsis criminationibus agiteris?
13316And after what manner do riches expel penury?
13316And except they be all one and the same thing, that they have nothing worth the desiring?"
13316And how far doth this error of yours extend, who think that any can be adorned with the ornaments of another?
13316And if there be no God, from whence cometh any good?''
13316And if there is nothing in these worthy to be desired, why art thou either glad when thou hast them or sorry when thou losest them?
13316And if they light upon wicked men, what Aetnas, belching flames, or what deluge can cause so great harms?
13316And if this strength of kingdoms be the author of blessedness, doth it not diminish happiness and bring misery, when it is in any way defective?
13316And is the present fortune dear unto thee, of whose stay thou art not sure, and whose departure will breed thy grief?
13316And shall the insatiable desire of men tie me to constancy, so contrary to my custom?
13316And then she said:"Thinkest thou that this world is governed by haphazard and chance?
13316And what if they were destitute of this so great and almost invincible help of the direction of nature?
13316And what plague is able to hurt us more than a familiar enemy?
13316And when, we answer, will this not be so?
13316And who either conserveth goodness or expelleth evils, but God the Ruler and Governor of men''s minds?
13316Are riches precious in virtue either of their own nature or of yours?
13316Are these the rewards which thy obedient servants have?
13316Are they not thirsty?
13316Are we the better for those friends which love us not for our virtue but for our prosperity?
13316Art thou come to bear me company in being falsely accused?"
13316Art thou thyself adorned with May flowers?
13316Art thou''like the ass, deaf to the lyre''?
13316At cuius praemii?
13316At si ad hominum iudicia reuertar, quis ille est cui haec non credenda modo sed saltem audienda uideantur?"
13316At si nescit, quid caeca petit?
13316At si noua ueraque non ex homine sumpta caro formata est, quo tanta tragoedia generationis?
13316At si quando, quod perrarum est, probis deferantur, quid in eis aliud quam probitas utentium placet?
13316At si quem sapientia praeditum uideres, num posses eum uel reuerentia uel ea qua est praeditus sapientia non dignum putare?
13316Auaritia feruet alienarum opum uiolentus ereptor?
13316Aut quid habeat amplum magnificumque gloria tam angustis exiguisque limitibus artata?
13316Aut quid hoc refert uaticinio illo ridiculo Tiresiae?
13316Because their famous names in books we read, Come we by them to know the dead?
13316Because this soul the highest mind did view, Must we needs say that it all nature knew?
13316Bona uero unde, si non est?''
13316But I pray thee, leavest thou no punishments for the souls after the death of the body?"
13316But I would have thee answer me to this also; dost thou remember that thou art a man?"
13316But are men so completely wise that whomsoever they judge wicked or honest must needs be so?
13316But by whose accusations did I receive this blow?
13316But did I deserve the same of the Senators themselves?
13316But do they always last among them where they had their beginning?
13316But how is it possible those things should not happen which are foreseen to be to come?
13316But if I return to the judgments of men, who is there that will think them worthy to be believed or so much as heard?"
13316But if flesh had been formed new and real and not taken from man, to what purpose was the tremendous tragedy of the conception?
13316But if thou seest any man endued with wisdom, canst thou esteem him unworthy of that respect or wisdom which he hath?
13316But in this rank of coherent causes, have we any free- will, or doth the fatal chain fasten also the motions of men''s minds?"
13316But in what Scriptures is the name of Christ ever made double?
13316But now have you laid hold of him who hath been brought up in Eleatical and Academical studies?
13316But now, if we follow Nestorius, what happens that is new?
13316But tell me, dost thou remember what is the end of things?
13316But thou wilt say,''If it is in my power to change my purpose, shall I frustrate providence if I chance to alter those things which she foreknoweth?''
13316But what crime was laid to my charge?
13316But what great or heroical matter can that glory have, which is pent up in so small and narrow bounds?
13316But what if thou hast tasted more abundantly of the good?
13316But what is more devoid of strength than blind ignorance?
13316But what is this excellent power which you esteemed so desirable?
13316But what reward hath he?
13316But who would not despise and neglect the service of so vile and frail a thing as his body?
13316But why should he call God Himself by the name of Christ?
13316But wilt thou have our arguments contend together?
13316By ignorance of that which is good?
13316Can they therefore behold, as is wo nt to be said of bodies, that inward complexion of souls?
13316Canst thou ever imperiously impose anything upon a free mind?
13316Canst thou remove a soul settled in firm reason from the quiet state which it possesseth?
13316Celsa num tandem ualuit potestas Vertere praui rabiem Neronis?
13316Comest thou now first as a pilgrim and stranger into the theatre of this life?
13316Consider you not, O earthly wights, whom you seem to excel?
13316Could Nestorius, I ask, dare to call the one man and the one God in Christ two Christs?
13316Could so many dangers ever make thee think to bear office with Decoratus,[124] having discovered him to be a very varlet and spy?
13316Could this glorious might Restrain the furious rage of wicked Nero''s spite?
13316Cur enim flammas quidem sursum leuitas uehit, terras uero deorsum pondus deprimit, nisi quod haec singulis loca motionesque conueniunt?
13316Cur enim omnino duos audeat Christos uocare, unum hominem alium deum?
13316Cur enim relicta uirtute uitia sectantur?
13316Cur inertes Terga nudatis?
13316Cur ita prouenit?
13316Cur uero non elementa quoque ipsa simili audeat appellare uocabulo per quae deus mira quaedam cotidianis motibus operatur?
13316Darest thou boast of the beauty which any of them have?
13316Deo uero atque homini quid non erit diuersa ratione disiunctum, si sub diuersitate naturae personarum quoque credatur mansisse discretio?
13316Deum uero ipsum Christi appellatione cur uocet?
13316Did my dealing deserve it?
13316Didst thou not know my fashion?
13316Didst thou not learn in thy youth that there lay two barrels, the one of good things and the other of bad,[105] at Jupiter''s threshold?
13316Dignitatibus fulgere uelis?
13316Diuitiaene uel uestra uel sui natura pretiosae sunt?
13316Do any of these belong to thee?
13316Does this square with catholic doctrine?
13316Dost thou esteem it a small benefit that this rough and harsh Fortune hath made known unto thee the minds of thy faithful friends?
13316Dost thou esteem that happiness precious which thou art to lose?
13316Dost thou not know me?
13316Doth not the very countenance of this place move thee?
13316Doth the glittering of jewels draw thy eyes after them?
13316Doth the light and unconstant change his courses?
13316Doth the outrageous fret and fume?
13316Doth the pleasant prospect of the fields delight you?
13316Doth the treacherous fellow rejoice that he hath deceived others with his hidden frauds?
13316Ea etiam quae inanimata esse creduntur nonne quod suum est quaeque simili ratione desiderant?
13316Endeavourest thou to stay the force of the turning wheel?
13316Estne aliquid tibi te ipso pretiosius?
13316Et illa:"Bonos,"inquit,"esse felices, malos uero miseros nonne concessimus?"
13316Et illa:"Nihilne aliud te esse nouisti?"
13316Et quid si hoc tam magno ac paene inuicto praeeuntis naturae desererentur auxilio?
13316Ex meane dispositione scientia diuina mutabitur, ut cum ego nunc hoc nunc aliud uelim, illa quoque noscendi uices alternare uideatur?
13316Fatebimur?
13316Ferox atque inquies linguam litigiis exercet?
13316First then, I ask thee thyself, who not long since didst abound with wealth; in that plenty of riches, was thy mind never troubled with any injuries?"
13316Foedis inmundisque libidinibus immergitur?
13316For are not rich men hungry?
13316For being askt how can we answer true Unless that grace within our hearts did dwell?
13316For can you be bigger than elephants, or stronger than bulls?
13316For dost thou think that this is the first time that Wisdom hath been exposed to danger by wicked men?
13316For doth thy sight impose any necessity upon those things which thou seest present?"
13316For from whence proceed so many complaints in law, but that money gotten either by violence or deceit is sought to be recovered by that means?"
13316For seem they to err who endeavour to want nothing?
13316For what is there wanting life and members that may justly seem beautiful to a nature not only endued with life but also with reason?
13316For what liberty remaineth there to be hoped for?
13316For what place can confusion have, since God disposeth all things in due order?
13316For what should I speak of kings''followers, since I show that kingdoms themselves are so full of weakness?
13316For what?
13316For who but a very fool would hate the good?
13316For who hath so entire happiness that he is not in some part offended with the condition of his estate?
13316For why do they follow vices, forsaking virtues?
13316For why doth levity lift up flames, or heaviness weigh down the earth, but because these places and motions are convenient for them?
13316For why should I speak of those feigned letters, in which I am charged to have hoped for Roman liberty?
13316For why should slippery chance Rule all things with such doubtful governance?
13316For, since nothing can be imagined better than God, who doubteth but that is good than which is nothing better?
13316Gloriam petas?
13316Haecine est bibliotheca, quam certissimam tibi sedem nostris in laribus ipsa delegeras?
13316Haecine omnia bonum-- sufficientia potentia ceteraque-- ueluti quaedam beatitudinis membra sunt an ad bonum ueluti ad uerticem cuncta referuntur?"
13316Haecine praemia referimus tibi obsequentes?
13316Hast thou forgotten how many ways, and in what degree thou art happy?
13316Have I now made clear the difference between the categories?
13316Have offices that force to plant virtues and expel vices in the minds of those who have them?
13316Have we not in ancient times before our Plato''s age had oftentimes great conflicts with the rashness of folly?
13316Have we not placed sufficiency in happiness, and granted that God is blessedness itself?"
13316Have you no proper and inward good, that you seek your goods in those things which are outward and separated from you?
13316Heu primus quis fuit ille Auri qui pondera tecti Gemmasque latere uolentes Pretiosa pericula fodit?
13316Hisne accedamus quos beluis similes esse monstrauimus?
13316Hoc uero qui fieri potest, si diuinitas in generatione Christi et humanam animam suscepit et corpus?
13316How cometh this to pass?
13316How doth God foreknow that these uncertain things shall be?
13316How many are there, thinkest thou, which would think themselves almost in Heaven if they had but the least part of the remains of thy fortune?
13316How often have I encountered with Conigastus, violently possessing himself with poor men''s goods?
13316How often have I put back Triguilla, Provost of the King''s house, from injuries which he had begun, yea, and finished also?
13316How shall she find them out?
13316How should I curse these fools?
13316Hunc uero Eleaticis atque Academicis studiis innutritum?
13316Iam uero quam sit inane quam futtile nobilitatis nomen, quis non uideat?
13316Iamne igitur uides quid haec omnia quae diximus consequatur?"
13316Iamne patet quae sit differentia praedicationum?
13316If heretofore one had care of the people''s provision, he was accounted a great man; now what is more abject than that office?
13316If it was the manhood of that man from whom all men descend, what manhood did divinity invest?
13316If not, what estate can be blessed by ignorant blindness?
13316If she knows not, why strives she with blind pain?
13316If she knows that which she doth so require, Why wisheth she known things to know again?
13316In hoc igitur minimo puncti quodam puncto circumsaepti atque conclusi de peruulganda fama, de proferendo nomine cogitatis?
13316In qua mecum saepe residens de humanarum diuinarumque rerum scientia disserebas?
13316Infitiabimur crimen, ne tibi pudor simus?
13316Inscitiane bonorum?
13316Insidiator occultus subripuisse fraudibus gaudet?
13316Inter eos uero apud quos ortae sunt, num perpetuo perdurant?
13316Irae intemperans fremit?
13316Is he drowned in filthy and unclean lusts?
13316Is it because irrational substances can not possess a Person enabling them to receive the name of Christ?
13316Is it shamefastness or insensibleness that makes thee silent?
13316Is not the operation of God seen plainly in men of holy life and notable piety?
13316Is the angry and unquiet man always contending and brawling?
13316Is the fearful and timorous afraid without cause?
13316Is the slow and stupid always idle?
13316Is the violent extorter of other men''s goods carried away with his covetous desire?
13316Is there anything more precious to thee than thyself?
13316Itane autem nullum est proprium uobis atque insitum bonum ut in externis ac sepositis rebus bona uestra quaeratis?
13316Itane nihil fortunam puduit si minus accusatae innocentiae, at accusantium uilitatis?
13316Leuis atque inconstans studia permutat?
13316Likewise, who seeth not what a vain and idle thing it is to be called noble?
13316May I seem to have provoked enmity enough against myself?
13316Modum desideras?
13316Must I only be forbidden to use my right?
13316My friends, why did you count me fortunate?
13316Nam bonos quis nisi stultissimus oderit?
13316Nam cum nihil deo melius excogitari queat, i d quo melius nihil est bonum esse quis dubitet?
13316Nam cur rogati sponte recta censetis, Ni mersus alto uiueret fomes corde?
13316Nam cur tantas lubrica uersat Fortuna uices?
13316Nam de compositis falso litteris quibus libertatem arguor sperasse Romanam quid attinet dicere?
13316Nam quae sperari reliqua libertas potest?
13316Nam quid ego de regum familiaribus disseram, cum regna ipsa tantae inbecillitatis plena demonstrem?
13316Nesciebas Croesum regem Lydorum Cyro paulo ante formidabilem mox deinde miserandum rogi flammis traditum misso caelitus imbre defensum?
13316Nihilne te ipsa loci facies mouet?
13316Nonne adulescentulus[ Greek: doious pithous ton men hena kakon ton d''heteron eaon] in Iouis limine iacere didicisti?
13316Nonne in beatitudine sufficientiam numerauimus deumque beatitudinem ipsam esse consensimus?"
13316Nonne in sanctis hominibus ac pietate conspicuis apertus diuinitatis actus agnoscitur?
13316Nonne, o terrena animalia, consideratis quibus qui praesidere uideamini?
13316Nos ad constantiam nostris moribus alienam inexpleta hominum cupiditas alligabit?
13316Nostraene artes ita meruerunt?
13316Now doth necessity compel any of these things to be done in this sort?"
13316Now what should I speak of bodily pleasures, the desire of which is full of anxiety, and the enjoying of them breeds repentance?
13316Now, how can any man exercise jurisdiction upon anybody except upon their bodies, and that which is inferior to their bodies, I mean their fortunes?
13316Now, what desire you with such loud praise of fortune?
13316Now, what is the health of souls but virtue?
13316Now, what is there that any can enforce upon another which he may not himself be enforced to sustain by another?
13316Now, why should I discourse of dignities and power which you, not knowing what true dignity and power meaneth, exalt to the skies?
13316Num audes alicuius talium splendore gloriari?
13316Num enim diuites esurire nequeunt?
13316Num enim elephantos mole, tauros robore superare poteritis, num tigres uelocitate praeibitis?
13316Num enim quae praesentia cernis, aliquam eis necessitatem tuus addit intuitus?"
13316Num enim tu aliunde argumentum futurorum necessitatis trahis, nisi quod ea quae praesciuntur non euenire non possunt?
13316Num enim uidentur errare hi qui nihilo indigere nituntur?
13316Num frigus hibernum pecuniosorum membra non sentiunt?
13316Num i d mentior?
13316Num igitur ea mentis integritate homines degunt, ut quos probos improbosue censuerunt eos quoque uti existimant esse necesse sit?
13316Num igitur quantum ad hoc attinet, quae ex arbitrio eueniunt ad necessitatem cogantur?"
13316Num igitur quidquam illorum ita fieri necessitas ulla compellit?"
13316Num imbecillum ac sine uiribus aestimandum est, quod omnibus rebus constat esse praestantius?
13316Num ita quasi cum duo corpora sibimet apponuntur, ut tantum locis iuncta sint et nihil in alterum ex alterius qualitate perueniat?
13316Num mentem firma sibi ratione cohaerentem de statu propriae quietis amouebis?
13316Num quidquam libero imperabis animo?
13316Num sitire non possunt?
13316Num te horum aliquid attingit?
13316Num te praeterit Paulum Persi regis a se capti calamitatibus pias inpendisse lacrimas?
13316Num uero labuntur hi qui quod sit optimum, i d etiam reuerentiae cultu dignissimum putent?
13316Num uis ea est magistratibus ut utentium mentibus uirtutes inserant uitia depellant?
13316Nunc enim primum censes apud inprobos mores lacessitam periculis esse sapientiam?
13316Or by what skill are several things espied?
13316Or did the condemnation, which went before, make them just accusers?
13316Or do they err who take that which is best to be likewise most worthy of respect?
13316Or do they know what they should embrace, but passion driveth them headlong the contrary way?
13316Or do they wittingly and willingly forsake goodness, and decline to vices?
13316Or doth much money make the owners senseless of cold in winter?
13316Or doth the multitude of servants make thee happy?
13316Or doth thy fertility teem with the fruits of summer?
13316Or having so, How shall she then their forms and natures know?
13316Or in true things can we no discord see, Because all certainties do still agree?
13316Or in what is this better than that ridiculous prophecy of Tiresias"Whatsoever I say shall either be or not be"[172]?
13316Or is fame to be contemned?
13316Or is not power to be esteemed good?
13316Or is there something, though unknown to the common sort, to which these names agree?"
13316Or rather dost thou believe that it is ruled by reason?"
13316Or swifter than tigers?
13316Or though he should lose it, doth he think that a thing of no moment?
13316Or to what the whole intention of nature tendeth?"
13316Or what is it to thee, if they be precious by nature?
13316Or what new thing has been wrought by the coming of the Saviour?
13316Or why should punishments, Due to the guilty, light on innocents?
13316Or will such ignorant pursuit maintain?
13316Ought, then, by parity of reason, all things to be just because He is just who willed them to be?
13316Pauidus ac fugax non metuenda formidat?
13316Pecuniamne congregare conaberis?
13316Perceivest thou now what followeth of all that we have hitherto said?"
13316Plures enim magnum saepe nomen falsis uulgi opinionibus abstulerunt; quo quid turpius excogitari potest?
13316Postremo cum omne praemium idcirco appetatur quoniam bonum esse creditur, quis boni compotem praemii iudicet expertem?
13316Potentem censes qui satellite latus ambit, qui quos terret ipse plus metuit, qui ut potens esse uideatur, in seruientium manu situm est?
13316Potentiamne desideras?
13316Primum igitur paterisne me pauculis rogationibus statum tuae mentis attingere atque temptare, ut qui modus sit tuae curationis intellegam?"
13316Pudore an stupore siluisti?
13316Quae diuisa recolligit 20 Alternumque legens iter Nunc summis caput inserit, Nunc decedit in infima, Tum sese referens sibi Veris falsa redarguit?
13316Quae est igitur facta hominis deique coniunctio?
13316Quae est igitur haec potestas quae sollicitudinum morsus expellere, quae formidinum aculeos uitare nequit?
13316Quae est igitur ista potentia quam pertimescunt habentes, quam nec cum habere uelis tutus sis et cum deponere cupias uitare non possis?
13316Quae iam praecipitem frena cupidinem 15 Certo fine retentent, Largis cum potius muneribus fluens Sitis ardescit habendi?
13316Quae omnia non modo ad tempus manendi uerum generatim quoque quasi in perpetuum permanendi ueluti quasdam machinas esse quis nesciat?
13316Quae si in improbissimum quemque ceciderunt, quae flammis Aetnae eructuantibus, quod diluuium tantas strages dederint?
13316Quae si recepta futurorum necessitate nihil uirium habere credantur, quid erit quo summo illi rerum principi conecti atque adhaerere possimus?
13316Quae tua tibi detraximus bona?
13316Quae uero est ista uestra expetibilis ac praeclara potentia?
13316Quae uero pestis efficacior ad nocendum quam familiaris inimicus?
13316Quae uero, inquies, potest ulla iniquior esse confusio, quam ut bonis tum aduersa tum prospera, malis etiam tum optata tum odiosa contingant?
13316Quae uis singula perspicit Aut quae cognita diuidit?
13316Quaenam discors foedera rerum Causa resoluit?
13316Quam multos esse coniectas qui sese caelo proximos arbitrentur, si de fortunae tuae reliquiis pars eis minima contingat?
13316Quam tibi fecimus iniuriam?
13316Quam uero late patet uester hic error qui ornari posse aliquid ornamentis existimatis alienis?
13316Quamquam quid ipsa scripta proficiant, quae cum suis auctoribus premit longior atque obscura uetustas?
13316Quando enim non fuit diuinitatis propria humanitatisque persona?
13316Quando uero non erit?
13316Quare si opes nec submouere possunt indigentiam et ipsae suam faciunt, quid est quod eas sufficientiam praestare credatis?
13316Quare si quid ita futurum est ut eius certus ac necessarius non sit euentus, i d euenturum esse praesciri qui poterit?
13316Quibus autem deferentibus perculsi sumus?
13316Quibus autem umquam scripturis nomen Christi geminatur?
13316Quibus si nihil inest appetendae pulchritudinis, quid est quod uel amissis doleas uel laeteris retentis?
13316Quid aegritudo quam uitia?
13316Quid autem de corporis uoluptatibus loquar, quarum appetentia quidem plena est anxietatis; satietas uero poenitentiae?
13316Quid autem de dignitatibus potentiaque disseram quae uos uerae dignitatis ac potestatis inscii caelo exaequatis?
13316Quid autem est quod in alium facere quisquam[111] possit, quod sustinere ab alio ipse non possit?
13316Quid autem tanto fortunae strepitu desideratis?
13316Quid dicam liberos consulares quorum iam, ut in i d aetatis pueris, uel paterni uel auiti specimen elucet ingenii?
13316Quid dignum stolidis mentibus inprecer?
13316Quid earum potius, aurumne an uis congesta pecuniae?
13316Quid enim furor hosticus ulla Vellet prior arma mouere, 20 Cum uulnera saeua uiderent Nec praemia sanguinis ulla?
13316Quid enim uel speret quisque uel etiam deprecetur, quando optanda omnia series indeflexa conectit?
13316Quid enim?
13316Quid est enim carens animae motu atque compage quod animatae rationabilique naturae pulchrum esse iure uideatur?
13316Quid est igitur o homo quod te in maestitiam luctumque deiecit?
13316Quid etiam diuina prouidentia humana opinione praestiterit; si uti homines incerta iudicat quorum est incertus euentus?
13316Quid externa bona pro tuis amplexaris?
13316Quid fles, quid lacrimis manas?
13316Quid genus et proauos strepitis?
13316Quid huic seueritati posse astrui uidetur?
13316Quid igitur ingemiscis?
13316Quid igitur inquies?
13316Quid igitur o magistra censes?
13316Quid igitur o mortales extra petitis intra uos positam felicitatem?
13316Quid igitur postulas ut necessaria fiant quae diuino lumine lustrentur, cum ne homines quidem necessaria faciant esse quae uideant?
13316Quid igitur referre putas, tune illam moriendo deseras an te illa fugiendo?
13316Quid igitur refert non esse necessaria, cum propter diuinae scientiae condicionem modis omnibus necessitatis instar eueniet?
13316Quid igitur, si ratiocinationi sensus imaginatioque refragentur, nihil esse illud uniuersale dicentes quod sese intueri ratio putet?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid igitur?
13316Quid inanibus gaudiis raperis?
13316Quid o superbi colla mortali iugo Frustra leuare gestiunt?
13316Quid quod omnes uelut in terras ore demerso trahunt alimenta radicibus ac per medullas robur corticemque diffundunt?
13316Quid si a te non tota discessi?
13316Quid si haec ipsa mei mutabilitas iusta tibi causa est sperandi meliora?
13316Quid si uberius de bonorum parte sumpsisti?
13316Quid taces?
13316Quid tragoediarum clamor aliud deflet nisi indiscreto ictu fortunam felicia regna uertentem?
13316Quid uero aliud animorum salus uidetur esse quam probitas?
13316Quid uero noui per aduentum saluatoris effectum est?
13316Quidni, cum a semet ipsis discerpentibus conscientiam uitiis quisque dissentiat faciantque saepe, quae cum gesserint non fuisse gerenda decernant?
13316Quidni, quando eorum felicitas perpetuo perdurat?
13316Quidni?
13316Quis autem alius uel seruator bonorum uel malorum depulsor quam rector ac medicator mentium deus?
13316Quis autem modus est quo pellatur diuitiis indigentia?
13316Quis enim coercente in ordinem cuncta deo locus esse ullus temeritati reliquus potest?
13316Quis est enim tam conpositae felicitatis ut non aliqua ex parte cum status sui qualitate rixetur?
13316Quis est ille tam felix qui cum dederit inpatientiae manus, statum suum mutare non optet?
13316Quis illos igitur putet beatos Quos miseri tribuunt honores?
13316Quis legem det amantibus?
13316Quis non te felicissimum cum tanto splendore socerorum, cum coniugis pudore, cum masculae quoque prolis opportunitate praedicauit?
13316Quis tanta deus Veris statuit bella duobus, Vt quae carptim singula constent Eadem nolint mixta iugari?
13316Quo uero quisquam ius aliquod in quempiam nisi in solum corpus et quod infra corpus est, fortunam loquor, possit exserere?
13316Quod si aeternitatis infinita spatia pertractes, quid habes quod de nominis tui diuturnitate laeteris?
13316Quod si haec regnorum potestas beatitudinis auctor est, nonne si qua parte defuerit, felicitatem minuat, miseriam inportet?
13316Quod si natura pulchra sunt, quid i d tua refert?
13316Quod si natura quidem inest, sed est ratione diuersum, cum de rerum principe loquamur deo, fingat qui potest: quis haec diuersa coniunxerit?
13316Quod si nec ex arbitrio retineri potest et calamitosos fugiens facit, quid est aliud fugax quam futurae quoddam calamitatis indicium?
13316Quod si neque i d ualent efficere quod promittunt bonisque pluribus carent, nonne liquido falsa in eis beatitudinis species deprehenditur?
13316Quod tantos iuuat excitare motus Et propria fatum sollicitare manu?
13316Quonam modo deus haec incerta futura praenoscit?
13316Quoue inueniat, quisque[173] repertam Queat ignarus noscere formam?
13316Requirentibus enim:"Ipse est pater qui filius?"
13316Rursus:"Idem alter qui alter?"
13316Satisne in me magnas uideor exaceruasse discordias?
13316Scitne quod appetit anxia nosse?
13316Secundum Nestorii uero sententiam quid contingit noui?
13316Secundum hanc igitur rationem cuncta oportet esse iusta, quoniam ipse iustus est qui ea esse uoluit?
13316Sed dic mihi, meministine, quis sit rerum finis, quoue totius naturae tendat intentio?"
13316Sed hoc quoque respondeas uelim, hominemne te esse meministi?"
13316Sed in hac haerentium sibi serie causarum estne ulla nostri arbitrii libertas an ipsos quoque humanorum motus animorum fatalis catena constringit?"
13316Sed num idem de patribus quoque merebamur?
13316Sed num in his eam reperiet, quae demonstrauimus i d quod pollicentur non posse conferre?"
13316Sed quaeso,"inquam,"te, nullane animarum supplicia post defunctum morte corpus relinquis?"
13316Sed quemadmodum bona sint, inquirendum est, utrumne participatione an substantia?
13316Sed qui fieri potest ut ea non proueniant quae futura esse prouidentur?
13316Sed quid eneruatius ignorantiae caecitate?
13316Sed quis non spernat atque abiciat uilissimae fragilissimaeque rei corporis seruum?
13316Sed quis nota scire laborat?
13316Sed quod decora nouimus uocabula, Num scire consumptos datur?
13316Sed uisne rationes ipsas inuicem collidamus?
13316Seekest thou for glory?
13316Seest thou now how all these in knowing do rather use their own force and faculty than the force of those things which are known?
13316Seest thou then in what mire wickedness wallows, and how clearly honesty shineth?
13316Seest thou therefore how strait and narrow that glory is which you labour to enlarge and increase?
13316Segnis ac stupidus torpit?
13316Shall I call it an offence to have wished the safety of that order?
13316Shall I confess it?
13316Shall I deny this charge, that I may not shame thee?
13316Shall we join ourselves to them whom we have proved to be like beasts?
13316Should I fear any accusations, as though this were any new matter?
13316Si eo de cuius semine ductus est homo, quem uestita diuinitas est?
13316Si nescit, quaenam beata sors esse potest ignorantiae caecitate?
13316Si non confitetur ex ea traxisse, dicat quo homine indutus aduenerit, utrumne eo qui deciderat praeuaricatione peccati an alio?
13316Sic rerum uersa condicio est ut diuinum merito rationis animal non aliter sibi splendere nisi inanimatae supellectilis possessione uideatur?
13316Supposest thou to find any constancy in human affairs, since that man himself is soon gone?
13316Tell me, since thou doubtest not that the world is governed by God, canst thou tell me also by what means it is governed?"
13316Than which what can be imagined more vile?
13316That things which severally well settled be Yet joined in one will never friendly prove?
13316The gold or the heaps of money?
13316Thinkest thou him mighty whom thou seest desire that which he can not do?
13316Thinkest thou otherwise?"
13316Thinkest thou that which needeth nothing, to stand in need of power?"
13316Those things also which are thought to be without all life, doth not every one in like manner desire that which appertaineth to their own good?
13316Thou to that certain end Governest all things; deniest Thou to intend The acts of men alone, Directing them in measure from Thy throne?
13316Though what do writings themselves avail which perish, as well as their authors, by continuance and obscurity of time?
13316To which she replied:"Dost thou not know thyself to be anything else?"
13316Tu uero uoluentis rotae impetum retinere conaris?
13316Tum ego collecto in uires animo:"Anne adhuc eget admonitione nec per se satis eminet fortunae in nos saeuientis asperitas?
13316Tum illa,"Quanti,"inquit,"aestimabis, si bonum ipsum quid sit agnoueris?"
13316Tum illa:"Huncine,"inquit,"mundum temerariis agi fortuitisque casibus putas, an ullum credis ei regimen inesse rationis?"
13316V. An uero regna regumque familiaritas efficere potentem ualet?
13316V. But can kingdoms and the familiarity of kings make a man mighty?
13316Vbi ambitus passionis?
13316Vbi nunc fidelis ossa Fabricii manent, 15 Quid Brutus aut rigidus Cato?
13316Vel quid amplius in Iesu generatione contingit quam in cuiuslibet alterius, si discretis utrisque personis discretae etiam fuere naturae?
13316Verumtamen ne te existimari miserum uelis, an numerum modumque tuae felicitatis oblitus es?
13316Videsne igitur quam sit angusta, quam compressa gloria quam dilatare ac propagare laboratis?
13316Videsne igitur quanto in caeno probra uoluantur, qua probitas luce resplendeat?
13316Videsne igitur ut in cognoscendo cuncta sua potius facultate quam eorum quae cognoscuntur utantur?
13316Videsne quantum malis dedecus adiciant dignitates?
13316Visne igitur cum fortuna calculum ponere?
13316Vllamne humanis rebus inesse constantiam reris, cum ipsum saepe hominem uelox hora dissoluat?
13316Vllamne igitur eius hominis potentiam putas, qui quod ipse in alio potest, ne i d in se alter ualeat efficere non possit?
13316Vnde enim forenses querimoniae nisi quod uel ui uel fraude nolentibus pecuniae repetuntur ereptae?"
13316Vnde haud iniuria tuorum quidam familiarium quaesiuit:''Si quidem deus,''inquit,''est, unde mala?
13316Voluptariam uitam degas?
13316Was not fortune ashamed, if not that innocency was accused, yet at least that it had so vile and base accusers?
13316Well, when had not divinity and humanity each its proper Person?
13316What God between two truths such wars doth move?
13316What bridle can contain in bounds this their contentless will, When filled with riches they retain the thirst of having more?
13316What cause of discord breaks the bands of love?
13316What could be added to this severity?
13316What goods of thine have I taken from thee?
13316What if I be not wholly gone from thee?
13316What if this mutability of mine be a just cause for thee to hope for better?
13316What injury have I done thee?
13316What kind of union, then, between God and man has been effected?
13316What might be the reason of this?
13316What part of them can be so esteemed of?
13316What sickness have they but vices?
13316What then, if sense and imagination repugn to discourse and reason, affirming that universality to be nothing which reason thinketh herself to see?
13316What then?
13316What then?
13316What then?
13316What thinkest thou, O Mistress?
13316What?
13316When they ask"Is the Father the same as the Son?"
13316Whence not without cause one of thy familiar friends[95] demanded:''If,''saith he,''there be a God, from whence proceed so many evils?
13316Where the fame of the Roman name could not pass, can the glory of a Roman man penetrate?
13316Where the value of His long Passion?
13316Whereas, if thou weighest attentively the infinite spaces of eternity, what cause hast thou to rejoice at the prolonging of thy name?
13316Wherefore if riches can neither remove wants, and cause some themselves, why imagine you that they can cause sufficiency?
13316Wherefore lamentest thou?
13316Wherefore what power is this that the possessors fear, which when thou wilt have, thou art not secure, and when thou wilt leave, thou canst not avoid?
13316Wherefore, O man, what is it that hath cast thee into sorrow and grief?
13316Wherefore, O mortal men, why seek you for your felicity abroad, which is placed within yourselves?
13316Wherefore, enclosed and shut up in this smallest point of that other point, do you think of extending your fame and enlarging your name?
13316Wherefore, what matter is it whether thou by dying leavest it, or it forsaketh thee by flying?
13316Who after things unknown will strive to go?
13316Who can for lovers laws indite?
13316Who esteemed thee not most happy, having so noble a father- in- law, so chaste a wife, and so noble sons?
13316Who is so happy that if he yieldeth to discontent, desireth not to change his estate?
13316Who knows where faithful Fabrice''bones are pressed, Where Brutus and strict Cato rest?
13316Who would esteem of fading honours then Which may be given thus by the wickedest men?
13316Why brag you of your stock?
13316Why do fierce tyrants us affright, Whose rage is far beyond their might?
13316Why do proud men scorn that their necks should bear That yoke which every man must wear?
13316Why dost thou not speak?
13316Why embracest thou outward goods as if they were thine own?
13316Why not, when their felicity lasteth always?
13316Why not?
13316Why not?
13316Why rejoicest thou vainly?
13316Why sheddest thou so many tears?
13316Why should he not go on to call the very elements by that name?
13316Why should we strive to die so many ways, And slay ourselves with our own hands?
13316Why then, the hidden notes of things to find, Doth she with such a love of truth desire?
13316Why weepest thou?
13316Why, then, is that to be accounted feeble and of no force, which manifestly surpasses all other things?
13316Wilt thou endeavour to gather money?
13316Wilt thou excel in dignities?
13316Wilt thou have it in one word?
13316Wilt thou know the manner how?
13316Wilt thou live a voluptuous life?
13316Wilt thou then reckon with fortune?
13316Wishest thou for power?
13316Would those things which proceed from free- will be compelled to any necessity by this means?"
13316Wouldst thou give due desert to all?
13316Yet how can this be if Godhead in the conception of Christ received both human soul and body?
13316You gallant men pursue this way of high renown, Why yield you?
13316[ 103] Hast thou forgotten how Paul piously bewailed the calamities of King Perses his prisoner?
13316[ 104] What other thing doth the outcry of tragedies lament, but that fortune, having no respect, overturneth happy states?
13316[ 123] Seest thou what great ignominy dignities heap upon evil men?
13316[ 125] What power is this, then, which can not expel nor avoid biting cares and pricking fears?
13316[ 153] Do they such wars unjustly wage, Because their lives and manners disagree, And so themselves with mutual weapons kill?
13316[ 86] At cuius criminis arguimur summam quaeris?
13316or in what shall the divine providence exceed human opinion, if, as men, God judgeth those things to be uncertain the event of which is doubtful?
14988Ay,says Diagoras,"I see those who were saved, but where are those painted who were shipwrecked?"
14988How am I then injured by being torn by those animals, if I have no sensation?
14988How can I, when I do not know how learned or how good a man he is?
14988How can you do that,they answer,"for you will not perceive them?"
14988Is Archelaus, then, miserable?
14988What are they?
14988What do you mean?
14988What less than this,says Aristotle,"could be inscribed on the tomb, not of a king, but an ox?"
14988You can not, then, pronounce of the great king of the Persians whether he is happy or not?
14988After all, what kind of a Deity must that be who is not graced with one single virtue, if we should succeed in forming this idea of such a one?
14988Am I superior to Plato in eloquence?
14988And Africanus boasts, Who, from beyond Mæotis to the place Where the sun rises, deeds like mine can trace?
14988And as I continued to observe the earth with great attention, How long, I pray you, said Africanus, will your mind be fixed on that object?
14988And as to other things, do not Epicurus and the rest of the philosophers seem sufficiently prepared?
14988And as to the men, what shall I say?
14988And can you, then, refuse to acknowledge also Codrus, and many others who shed their blood for the preservation of their country?
14988And do we not see what the Lacedæmonians provide in their Phiditia?
14988And do you set bounds to vice?
14988And does it become a philosopher to boast that he is not afraid of these things, and that he has discovered them to be false?
14988And if Hecate is a Goddess, how can you refuse that rank to the Eumenides?
14988And if that really is the case-- for I say nothing either way-- what is there agreeable or glorious in it?
14988And if the constant course of future time is to resemble that night, who is happier than I am?
14988And if these are the effects of virtue, why can not virtue itself make men happy?
14988And if they are admitted, what reason have we to reject the Gods of the barbarians?
14988And in this state of things where can the evil be, since death has no connection with either the living or the dead?
14988And is not the art of the soothsayers divine?
14988And must not every one who sees what innumerable instances of the same kind there are confess the existence of the Gods?
14988And shall not the great man found laws, institutions, and a republic?
14988And should you observe any one of your friends under affliction, would you rather prescribe him a sturgeon than a treatise of Socrates?
14988And thus there will be something better than a happy life: but what can be more absurd than such an assertion?
14988And to what purpose?
14988And what are those things of more consequence?
14988And what is it that constitutes the happiness which you assert that he enjoys?
14988And when it is thus explained, what can a warrior, a commander, or an orator want more?
14988And where do the multitude of Gods dwell, if heaven itself is a Deity?
14988And wherein doth poverty prevent us from being happy?
14988And who is there whom pain may not befall?
14988And whose images are they?
14988And why should I be uneasy it I were to expect that some nation might possess itself of this city ten thousand years hence?
14988And why should we worship them from an admiration only of that nature in which we can behold nothing excellent?
14988And why so?
14988And, again, how are we to conceive how much it is able to contain?
14988Anything sudden or unforeseen?
14988Are any of them hook- nosed, flap- eared, beetle- browed, or jolt- headed, as some of us are?
14988Are not their opinions subversive of all religion?
14988Are these parts necessary to immortality?
14988Are these the good things which remove the most afflicting grief?
14988Are these your words or not?
14988Are they afraid of any attacks or blows?
14988Are they all alike in the face?
14988Are they conducive to the existence of the Deity?
14988Are we to suppose the divine seed fell from heaven upon earth, and that men sprung up in the likeness of their celestial sires?
14988Are we, then, to attribute the first of these characteristics to animals?
14988Are you able to tell?
14988Are you not acquainted with the first principles of logic?
14988As to the beasts, do they not bear cold and hunger, running about in woods, and on mountains and deserts?
14988As to the natural fortifications of Rome, who is so negligent and unobservant as not to have them depicted and deeply stamped on his memory?
14988As, therefore, it is plain that what is moved by itself must be eternal, who will deny that this is the general condition and nature of minds?
14988Besides, how can the world move itself, if it wants a body?
14988Besides, how could that Deity, if it is nothing but soul, be mixed with, or infused into, the world?
14988Besides, is not everything that had a beginning subject to mortality?
14988Besides, what piety is due to a being from whom you receive nothing?
14988But I ask you if I have effected anything or nothing in the preceding days?
14988But I would demand of you both, why these world- builders started up so suddenly, and lay dormant for so many ages?
14988But among men, do we not see a disparity of manners in persons very much alike, and a similitude of manners in persons unlike?
14988But are any of these miserable now?
14988But can not we have the pleasure of hearing you resume it, or are we come too late?
14988But could not the Deity have assisted and preserved those eminent cities?
14988But do not you, who are so great an adept in physics, see what a soothing flatterer, what a sort of procuress, nature is to herself?
14988But do we imagine that he was afterward delighted with that variety with which we see the heaven and earth adorned?
14988But do you mean, said Tubero, that he dared to speak thus to men almost entirely uneducated and ignorant?
14988But do you really imagine them to be such?
14988But do you think they were all madmen who thought that a Deity could by some possibility exist without hands and feet?
14988But does your Epicurus( for I had rather contend with him than with you) say anything that is worthy the name of philosophy, or even of common- sense?
14988But how can that be miserable for one which all must of necessity undergo?
14988But how can wisdom reside in such shapes?
14988But how can you assert that the Gods do not enter into all the little circumstances of life, and yet hold that they distribute dreams among men?
14988But how does all this face of things arise from atomic corpuscles?
14988But how does he speak on these subjects?
14988But how is it that you take it for granted that life is nothing but fire?
14988But how will any one be enabled to bear his misfortunes the better by knowing that it is unavoidable that such things should happen to man?
14988But how will you get rid of the objections which Carneades made?
14988But if a concourse of atoms can make a world, why not a porch, a temple, a house, a city, which are works of less labor and difficulty?
14988But if it does not ease our pain, why should we debase ourselves to no purpose?
14988But if their doctrine be true, of what avail is piety, sanctity, or religion?
14988But if understanding, faith, virtue, and concord reside in human kind, how could they come on earth, unless from heaven?
14988But if you decline those opinions, why should a single form disturb you?
14988But if you think Latona a Goddess, how can you avoid admitting Hecate to be one also, who was the daughter of Asteria, Latona''s sister?
14988But is that the truth?
14988But it is not necessary at present to go through the whole: the question is, to what point are we to advance in order to abate our grief?
14988But let us see what she will perform?
14988But like what man?
14988But must they, for that reason, be all eternal?
14988But since the universe contains all particular beings, as well as their seeds, can we say that it is not itself governed by nature?
14988But still, what was this extraordinary fortune?
14988But suppose we are mistaken as to his pleasure; are we so, too, as to his pain?
14988But supposing these were to be allowed, how can the rest be granted, or even so much as understood?
14988But the question is, had he died, would he have been taken from good, or from evil?
14988But to detract from another''s reputation, or to rival him with that vicious emulation which resembles an enmity, of what use can that conduct be?
14988But what age is long, or what is there at all long to a man?
14988But what are those degrees by which we are to limit it?
14988But what are those images you talk of, or whence do they proceed?
14988But what are those more important things about which you say that you are occupied?
14988But what are we doing?
14988But what can be more internal than the mind?
14988But what conception can we possibly have of a Deity who is not eternal?
14988But what do you think of those to whom a victory in the Olympic games seemed almost on a par with the ancient consulships of the Roman people?
14988But what does the same man say in his funeral oration?
14988But what is Chrysippus''s definition?
14988But what is it, Epicurus, that you do for them?
14988But what is that great and noble work which appears to you to be the effect of a divine mind, and from which you conclude that there are Gods?
14988But what is that opinion of Epicharmus?
14988But what is that peroration?
14988But what is there more effectual to dispel grief than the discovery that it answers no purpose, and has been undergone to no account?
14988But what is there of any excellency which has not its difficulty?
14988But what life do they attribute to that round Deity?
14988But what occasion is there to animadvert on the opinions of individuals, when we may observe whole nations to fall into all sorts of errors?
14988But what occasion is there to philosophize here in a matter with which we see that philosophy is but little concerned?
14988But what pleasures can they enjoy?
14988But what said that chief of the Argonauts in tragedy?
14988But what sense can the air have?
14988But what shall I say of human reason?
14988But what signifies that, if his defects were beauties to Catulus?
14988But what think you of those whose mothers were Goddesses?
14988But when virtue governs the Commonwealth, what can be more glorious?
14988But whence comes that divination?
14988But where is truth?
14988But who can with correctness speak in praise of a mediocrity of evils?
14988But who ever thanked the Gods that he was a good man?
14988But why are we angry with the poets?
14988But why are we to add many more Gods?
14988But why do I mention Socrates, or Theramenes, men distinguished by the glory of virtue and wisdom?
14988But why was not man endued with a reason incapable of producing any crimes?
14988But would any one say of us, who do exist, that we want horns or wings?
14988But would it not have been better that these inhumanities had been prevented than that the author of them should be punished afterward?
14988But, do you not see how much harm is done by poets?
14988But, indeed, who can dispute the antiquity of philosophy, either in fact or name?
14988Can any one contradict himself more?
14988Can any one in whom there is lust or desire be otherwise than libidinous or desirous?
14988Can anything be natural that is against reason?
14988Can anything show stupidity in a greater degree?
14988Can he who does not exist be in need of anything?
14988Can madness be of any use?
14988Can there be any doubt that whatever may be lost can not be properly classed in the number of those things which complete a happy life?
14988Can there be any glory or excellence in that nature which only contemplates its own happiness, and neither will do, nor does, nor ever did anything?
14988Can we suppose any of them to be squint- eyed, or even to have a cast in the eye?
14988Can we, then, think that this plentiful fountain of evil sprung from the immortal Gods?
14988Can you deny, my Lælius, that this is a fair definition of a democracy, where the people are all in all, and where the people constitute the State?
14988Can you, then, call yourself a brave man, of a great soul, endued with patience and steadiness above the frowns of fortune?
14988Can you, then, think, after this plain refutation, that there is need to employ more subtle reasonings?
14988Could he, then, be happy who occasioned the death of these men?
14988Could the Scythian Anacharsis[69] disregard money, and shall not our philosophers be able to do so?
14988Could the different courses of the stars be preserved by the uniform movement of the whole heaven?
14988Could the earth at one season be adorned with flowers, at another be covered with snow?
14988Could the flux and reflux of the sea and the height of the tides be affected by the increase or wane of the moon?
14988Could these things subsist, I say, in such a harmony of all the parts of the universe without the continued influence of a divine spirit?
14988Did he not follow his philosophical studies with the greatest satisfaction at Athens, although he was banished?
14988Did not his colleague Junius, in the same war, lose his fleet in a tempest by disregarding the auspices?
14988Did not they plainly deny the very essence of a Deity?
14988Did not this grave and wise man sufficiently show that the public revenue was dissipated by the Sempronian law?
14988Did she avoid labor?
14988Did you ever observe anything like this, Epicurus?
14988Did you ever see any world but this?
14988Did you, then, say that it was your opinion that such a man was as naturally liable to perturbation as the sea is exposed to winds?
14988Do I explain your opinion rightly?
14988Do I talk of their men?
14988Do not the Egyptians esteem their sacred bull, their Apis, as a Deity?
14988Do not they put their names to those very books which they write on the contempt of glory?
14988Do they not hate every virtue that distinguishes itself?
14988Do those grandiloquent gentlemen state anything better than Epicurus in opposition to these two things which distress us the most?
14988Do we look, then, on the libidinous, the angry, the anxious, and the timid man, as persons of wisdom, of excellence?
14988Do we not observe that where those exercises called gymnastic are in esteem, those who enter the lists never concern themselves about dangers?
14988Do you admit this-- that souls either exist after death, or else that they also perish at the moment of death?
14988Do you believe an eagle, a lion, or a dolphin prefers any shape to its own?
14988Do you believe that they thought that their names should not continue beyond their lives?
14988Do you commit your affairs to the hands of many persons?
14988Do you conceive him to have the least skill in natural philosophy who is capable of thinking anything to be everlasting that had a beginning?
14988Do you imagine that Epaminondas groaned when he perceived that his life was flowing out with his blood?
14988Do you imagine that I am angry when in pleading I use any extraordinary vehemence and sharpness?
14988Do you intend all the laws indifferently?
14988Do you not consider, Balbus, to what lengths your arguments for the divinity of the heaven and the stars will carry you?
14988Do you not look upon him as unworthy of his own father''s light?
14988Do you observe how he constrains himself?
14988Do you see that I have much leisure?
14988Do you see that city Carthage, which, though brought under the Roman yoke by me, is now renewing former wars, and can not live in peace?
14988Do you suppose if beasts were endowed with reason that every one would not give the prize of beauty to his own species?
14988Do you take that print of a horse''s hoof which is now to be seen on a stone at Regillus to be made by Castor''s horse?
14988Do you take these for fabulous stories?
14988Do you think the Deity is like either me or you?
14988Do you think there is any creature on the land or in the sea that is not highly delighted with its own form?
14988Do you, then, admit our idea of that governor of a commonwealth to whom we wish to refer everything?
14988Do you, then, asked Scipio, believe in nothing which is not before your eyes?
14988Do you, then, think that it can befall a wise man to be oppressed with grief, that is to say, with misery?
14988Does not Dionysius, then, seem to have declared there can be no happiness for one who is under constant apprehensions?
14988Does not Niobe here seem to reason, and by that reasoning to bring all her misfortunes upon herself?
14988Does not Old age, though unregarded, still attend On childhood''s pastimes, as the cares of men?
14988Does pain annoy us?
14988Does the earth bring forth fruit and grain in such excessive abundance and variety for men or for brutes?
14988Doth anything come nearer madness than anger?
14988Eternal sorrows what avails to shed?
14988For how is such a one judged to be best either in learning, sciences, or arts?
14988For how without these qualities could it be infinitely perfect?
14988For if that last day does not occasion an entire extinction, but a change of abode only, what can be more desirable?
14988For let the soul perish as the body: is there any pain, or indeed any feeling at all, in the body after death?
14988For piety is only justice towards the Gods; but what right have they to it, when there is no communication whatever between the Gods and men?
14988For what can be thought better than the best?
14988For what can possibly be more evident than this?
14988For what can possibly ever have been put together which can not be dissolved again?
14988For what can we pronounce more deplorable than folly?
14988For what is Athos or the vast Olympus?
14988For what is a republic but an association of rights?
14988For what is better and more excellent than goodness and beneficence?
14988For what is memory of words and circumstances?
14988For what is more unbecoming in a man than to cry like a woman?
14988For what is not only more miserable, but more base and sordid, than a man afflicted, weakened, and oppressed with grief?
14988For what is that faculty by which we remember?
14988For what is that love of friendship?
14988For what is there in human knowledge, or the short span of this life, that can appear great to a wise man?
14988For what is there in natures of that kind which has the power of memory, understanding, or thought?
14988For what is there in this life that can appear great to him who has acquainted himself with eternity and the utmost extent of the universe?
14988For what nation, what people are there, who have not, without any learning, a natural idea, or prenotion, of a Deity?
14988For what now remains of those antique manners, of which the poet said that our Commonwealth consisted?
14988For what shall we say?
14988For what should he be concerned for who has not even any sensation?
14988For what stronger argument can there be that it is of little use than that some very profound philosophers live in a discreditable manner?
14988For what superior force can there be?
14988For what was the State of Athens when, during the great Peloponnesian war, she fell under the unjust domination of the thirty tyrants?
14988For what-- can such a man be disturbed by fear?
14988For whence comes piety, or from whom has religion been derived?
14988For who does not see this, that an appetite is the best sauce?
14988For who that fears either pain or death, the one of which is always present, the other always impending, can be otherwise than miserable?
14988For whom, then, will any one presume to say that the world was made?
14988For why should I entreat him to be propitious?
14988For why should a woman be disabled from inheriting property?
14988For, in the first place, what are the pleasures of which we are deprived by that dreadful thing, blindness?
14988For, with respect to him what better authority can we cite than Plato?
14988From what would you derive Vejupiter and Vulcan?
14988From whence arose those five forms,[83] of which the rest were composed, so aptly contributing to frame the mind and produce the senses?
14988Granting, then, everything to be made of atoms, what advantage is that to your argument?
14988Had there not been danger, we should say, who would have applied to you?
14988Has it not even entered the heavens?
14988Has our entrance at all interrupted any conversation of yours?
14988Have I invented this?
14988Have they any warts?
14988Have they no names?
14988Have you any grounds of complaint, then, that she recalls it at her pleasure?
14988Have you, then, no commendation at all for any kind of democratical government?
14988He determines to be miserable: and can any one determine on anything against his will?
14988Here some people talk of moderate grief; but if such be natural, what occasion is there for consolation?
14988How can anything of this kind befall one to whom nothing is sudden and unforeseen that can happen to man?
14988How can he be brave and undaunted, and hold everything as trifles which can befall a man?
14988How can it be right that you should voluntarily grieve, rather than take the trouble of acquiring what you want to have?
14988How can that divine sense of the firmament be preserved in so rapid a motion?
14988How comes it that no one is in love with a deformed young man, or a handsome old one?
14988How could the Gods err?
14988How could the air, fire, water, and earth pay obedience and submit to the will of the architect?
14988How do the beasts live in the fields and in the forests?
14988How is it that the very first moment that I choose I can form representations of them in my mind?
14988How is it that they come to me, even in my sleep, without being called or sought after?
14988How is it when some things do of themselves prevent your grieving at them?
14988How much more reasonable is the doctrine of the Stoics, whom you censure?
14988How shall we account for this?
14988How so?
14988How was it with T. Altibutius?
14988How we are to behave in bed?
14988How, then, can a life be pleasant without prudence and temperance?
14988How, then, can we conceive this to be a Deity that makes no use of reason, and is not endowed with any virtue?
14988How, therefore, can they be those persons?
14988I desire, therefore, to know, Balbus, why this Providence of yours was idle for such an immense space of time?
14988I perceive your gradations from happiness to virtue, and from virtue to reason; but how do you come from reason to human form?
14988I should be glad to be confuted; for what am I endeavoring at but to clear up truth in every question?
14988I would inquire of him which of his family the nephew of Africanus''s brother was like?
14988I?
14988If I ask, why?
14988If I have not faculties for knowing all that I could desire to know, will you not even allow me to make use of those which I have?
14988If a just man and a virtuous man is bound to obey the laws, I ask, what laws do you mean?
14988If any sentiments, indeed, are communicated without obscurity, what is there that Velleius can understand and Cotta not?
14988If he never heard a lecture on these Democritean principles, what lectures did he ever hear?
14988If it is not the same, then why did she make the world mortal, and not everlasting, like Plato''s God?
14988If it were not so, why should we pray to or adore them?
14988If it were not so, why would not a bull become enamored of a mare, or a horse of a cow?
14988If it were true, what occasion was there to come so gradually to it?
14988If the Gods can exist without corporeal sense, and if there can be a mind without a body, why did he annex a mind to water?
14988If the human mind were a Deity, how could it be ignorant of any thing?
14988If there are Gods, are nymphs also Goddesses?
14988If there be no such thing as a Deity, what is there better than man, since he only is possessed of reason, the most excellent of all things?
14988If these are Deities, which we worship and regard as such, why are not Serapis and Isis[255] placed in the same rank?
14988If they are Goddesses, are Pans and Satyrs in the same rank?
14988If you did not deify one as well as the other, what will become of Ino?
14988If you suppose that wisdom governs the State, is it not as well that this wisdom should reside in one monarch as in many nobles?
14988If, then, honor and riches have no value, what is there else to be afraid of?
14988If, therefore, she neglects whole nations, is it not very probable that she neglects all mankind?
14988In afflictions, in labor, in danger?
14988In short, how is he happy?
14988In the first place, therefore, I ask you, Where is the habitation of your Deity?
14988In what manner?
14988In what other parts to the north or the south, or where the sun rises and sets, will your names ever be heard?
14988In what respect are they superior to these ideas?
14988In what was Epicurus happier, living in his own country, than Metrodorus, who lived at Athens?
14988In what way, said Lælius, are you going to make me again support your argument?
14988In what, therefore, can it be defective, since it is perfect?
14988In which, how could I have acted if I had not been consul at the time?
14988Is anger inflamed?
14988Is any country of barbarians more uncivilized or desolate than India?
14988Is he deprived of eyes?
14988Is he destitute of children?
14988Is he not involved in a very great error?
14988Is it because the mere separation of the soul and body can not be effected without pain?
14988Is it because you can not be liberal without pity?
14988Is it for beasts?
14988Is it in your innumerable worlds, some of which are rising, some falling, at every moment of time?
14988Is it not easier, then, to find one man of such a spirit as we are inquiring after, than to meet with a whole city of such men?
14988Is it not sufficient, if it is not disagreeable?
14988Is it possible that you should attain any human applause or glory that is worth the contending for?
14988Is it the contempt of honors?
14988Is it the same man who calls pain the greatest of all evils?
14988Is not a dog like a wolf?
14988Is not the decree of the senate concerning Vatienus still subsisting?
14988Is not the temple, built by Posthumius in honor of Castor and Pollux, to be seen in the Forum?
14988Is not this the case with the people everywhere?
14988Is poverty the subject?
14988Is she not called Leucothea by the Greeks, and Matuta by us?
14988Is that sufficient for beings who are supposed to enjoy all good things and the most supreme felicity?
14988Is the face itself of use?
14988Is there no natural charity in the dispositions of good men?
14988Is there, then, anything that a disturbed mind can do better than one which is calm and steady?
14988Is this all?
14988Is this that Telamon so highly praised By wondering Greece, at whose sight, like the sun, All others with diminish''d lustre shone?
14988It is an important question for us, Which has the most appearance of truth?
14988It is reported that Cleanthes on that struck his foot on the ground, and repeated a verse out of the Epigonæ: Amphiaraus, hear''st thou this below?
14988It may be said, on the other side, Who is so mad as to grieve of his own accord?
14988Lastly, if fortitude is ascribed to the Deity, how does it appear?
14988Lastly, what have the principal poets and the most learned men published of themselves in their poems and songs?
14988Moreover, how can a good man avoid referring all his actions and all his feelings to the one standard of whether or not it is laudable?
14988Moreover, who can think anything in human affairs of brilliant importance who has penetrated this starry empire of the gods?
14988Must I now seek for arguments to refute this doctrine seriously?
14988Must not the mind, then, when it is puffed up, or distended, be out of order?
14988Must we conclude that some Deity appoints and directs these ebbings and flowings to certain fixed times?
14988Must we not attribute prudence to a Deity?
14988Nay, more; is not the whole of heaven( not to dwell on particulars) almost filled with the offspring of men?
14988No beast has more sagacity than an elephant; yet where can you find any of a larger size?
14988Nothing is more true, and he says very appropriately, What, are you sane, who at this rate lament?
14988Now imagine a Democritus, a Pythagoras, and an Anaxagoras; what kingdom, what riches, would you prefer to their studies and amusements?
14988Now what made these men so easy, but their persuasion that grief and lamentation was not becoming in a man?
14988Now who that is acquainted with these instances can doubt that this motion of the mind is altogether in opinion and voluntary?
14988Now, do you understand what is meant by quasi- body and quasi- blood?
14988Now, does it not appear to you that he is here placing the whole of a happy life in virtue alone?
14988Now, in what sense do you say there is nothing better than the world?
14988Now, let our wise man be considered as protecting the republic; what can be more excellent than such a character?
14988Now, that very warlike anger, which is of such service in war, what is the use of it to him when he is at home with his wife, children, and family?
14988Now, what disorders can be worse to the body than these two distempers of the mind( for I overlook others), weakness and desire?
14988Now, what ignominy can a wise man be affected with( for it is of such a one that I am speaking) who can be guilty of nothing which deserves it?
14988Now, what were these inventions?
14988Of what use is reason to him?
14988Of what value is this philosophy, which, like old women and illiterate men, attributes everything to fate?
14988On the other side, what disgrace, what ignominy, would he not submit to that he might avoid pain, when persuaded that it was the greatest of evils?
14988Or are they free from imperfections?
14988Or can any one be angry without a perturbation of mind?
14988Or did Plato''s happiness exceed that of Xenocrates, or Polemo, or Arcesilas?
14988Or do you think Æsopus was ever angry when he acted, or Accius was so when he wrote?
14988Or for the sake of fools?
14988Or how can that nature be called animated which neither regards nor performs anything?
14988Or how can you, or any one else, be indebted to him who bestows no benefits?
14988Or how, if it is in perpetual self- motion, can it be easy and happy?
14988Or is it in your atomical corpuscles, which form such excellent works without the direction of any natural power or reason?
14988Or is that city to be valued much that banishes all her good and wise men?
14988Or the relations and sons of many other excellent men, whose names there is no occasion to mention?
14988Or was Theseus in a passion when he seized on the horns of the Marathonian bull?
14988Or were these things made, as you almost assert, by God for the sake of men?
14988Or what is there that had a beginning which will not have an end?
14988Or what old woman is now to be found so weak and ignorant as to stand in fear of those infernal monsters which once so terrified mankind?
14988Or what religion did Prodicus the Chian leave to men, who held that everything beneficial to human life should be numbered among the Gods?
14988Or who can think anything connected with mankind long who has learned to estimate the nature of eternity?
14988Or would we rather imitate Epicurus?
14988Or, if uninterrupted, still how do you prove them to be eternal?
14988Ought not such authorities to move you?
14988Ought we to contemn Attius Navius''s staff, with which he divided the regions of the vine to find his sow?
14988Secondly, What motive is it that stirs him from his place, supposing he ever moves?
14988Seeing, then, that it is clear that whatever moves itself is eternal, can there be any doubt that the soul is so?
14988Shall Amphiaraus and Tryphonius be called Gods?
14988Shall I adore, and bend the suppliant knee, Who scorn their power and doubt their deity?
14988Shall I call the sun, the moon, or the sky a Deity?
14988Shall I immediately crowd all my sails?
14988Shall I superficially go over what I said before, that my discourse may have a greater scope?
14988Shall Tantalus''unhappy offspring know No end, no close, of this long scene of woe?
14988Shall a wise man be afraid of pain?
14988Shall men not be able to bear what boys do?
14988Shall musicians compose their tunes to their own tastes?
14988Shall the Deity, then, have a tongue, and not speak-- teeth, palate, and jaws, though he will have no use for them?
14988Shall the happy life of a wise and consistent man succumb to this?
14988Shall the industrious husbandman, then, plant trees the fruit of which he shall never see?
14988Shall the members which nature has given to the body for the sake of generation be useless to the Deity?
14988Shall the world be possessed of every other perfection, and be destitute of this one, which is the most important and valuable of all?
14988Shall virtue, then, yield to this?
14988Shall we give, therefore, any credit to Pauæstius, when he dissents from his master, Plato?
14988Shall we imagine that there is a kind of measure in the soul, into which, as into a vessel, all that we remember is poured?
14988Shall we imagine the soul to receive impressions like wax, and memory to be marks of the impressions made on the soul?
14988Shall we not then allow the Gods to have these perfections, since we worship the sacred and august images of them?
14988Shall we say, then, that madness has its use?
14988Shall we, then, prefer determining between them, or shall we return to our subject?
14988Shall we, therefore, receive a lame Deity because we have such an account of him?
14988Shall, then, a veteran soldier be able to behave in this manner, and shall a wise and learned man not be able?
14988She turn''d me out- of- doors; she sends for me back again; Shall I go?
14988Should Pythagoras, Socrates, or Plato say to me, Why are you dejected or sad?
14988Should it be asked, why not?
14988Should you ask what its nature is?
14988Socrates, in Xenophon, asks,"Whence had man his understanding, if there was none in the world?"
14988Still, you would not be liable to punishment; for who could prove that you had known?
14988Suppose that we allow that to be without pain is the chief good?
14988Supposing he is so, would his happiness be less perfect if he had not two feet?
14988Take away this, and who would be so mad as to spend his life amidst toils and dangers?
14988That indeed is absurd; for how shall we form any idea of the bottom, or of the shape or fashion of such a soul as that?
14988That of nature?
14988The flights and notes of birds?
14988Then Lælius asked: But what difference is there, I should like to know, between the one and the many, if justice exists equally in many?
14988Then Mucius said: What, then, do you consider, my Lælius, should be our best arguments in endeavoring to bring about the object of your wishes?
14988Then Tubero said: I do not mean to disagree with you, Lælius; but, pray, what do you call more important studies?
14988Then said Furius, What is it that you are about?
14988Therefore, as fear with them, prevailed over grief, can not reason and true philosophy have the same effect with a wise man?
14988Therefore, when he had set off the riches of Priam to the best advantage, which had the appearance of a long continuance, what does he add?
14988This is not only a weak, but a false, argument; for, first of all, how do you know the opinions of all nations?
14988Though_ Sol_( the sun) is so called, you say, because he is_ solus_( single); yet how many suns do theologists mention?
14988Thus reasons Carneades; not with any design to destroy the existence of the Gods( for what would less become a philosopher?
14988Thy aid, O Venus, why should I invoke?
14988To judge whom?
14988To what length now will not anger go?
14988To whom is owing that knowledge from the entrails of beasts?
14988V._ A._ Should this be the case, is it not to be feared that you are dressing up philosophy in false colors?
14988Was Romulus, then, think you, king of a barbarous people?
14988Was it for the wise?
14988Was it, then, an unwise act in him to prefer the liberty of banishment to slavery at home?
14988Was there no evil in what afflicted Alcibiades thus?
14988We grant you this; but where is the similitude?
14988We must drive away this grief of hers: how is that to be done?
14988We should assist her, for she looks out for help: Where shall I now apply, where seek support?
14988We that are alive, are we not wretched, seeing we must die?
14988Were not that the case, why should the Stoics say so much on that question, Whether virtue was abundantly sufficient to a happy life?
14988What Hector?
14988What advantage, then, is the knowledge of futurity to us, or how does it assist us to guard against impending evils, since it will come inevitably?
14988What and how various are the kinds of animals, tame or wild?
14988What are the characters of the words, what of the facts themselves?
14988What are the notions of you philosophers?
14988What are the poet''s views but to be ennobled after death?
14988What are those good things?
14988What artificer but nature, whose direction is incomparable, could have exhibited so much ingenuity in the formation of the senses?
14988What being is there but a God superior to man?
14988What bounds can you set to the value of conversing with Orpheus, and Musæus, and Homer, and Hesiod?
14988What can I say to these definitions?
14988What can be more childish than to assert that there are no such creatures as are generated in the Red Sea or in India?
14988What can be wanting to such a life as this to make it more happy than it is?
14988What can make a worse appearance than Homer''s Achilles, or Agamemnon, during the quarrel?
14988What city would endure the maker of a law which should condemn a son or a grandson for a crime committed by the father or the grandfather?
14988What comeliness is there in the heart, the lungs, the liver, and the rest of them, abstracted from their use?
14988What could be better than to assert that fortune interferes but little with a wise man?
14988What could be weaker than this?
14988What do our philosophers think on the subject?
14988What do predictions and foreknowledge of future events indicate, but that such future events are shown, pointed out, portended, and foretold to men?
14988What do you allude to?
14988What do you conclude from thence?
14988What do you imagine that so many and such great men of our republic, who have sacrificed their lives for its good, expected?
14988What do you think of that son of Phoebus?
14988What do you think, then?
14988What does that man say in Terence who punishes himself, the Self- tormentor?
14988What doth Alcæus, who was distinguished in his own republic for his bravery, write on the love of young men?
14988What else is it, I say, that we do, but invite the soul to reflect on itself?
14988What else is the object of these lines, Behold old Ennius here, who erst Thy fathers''great exploits rehearsed?
14988What entertainment could that be to the Deity?
14988What fire have not candidates run through to gain a single vote?
14988What gladiator, of even moderate reputation, ever gave a sigh?

14988_ Scipio._ You desire, then, that all the faculties of the mind should submit to a ruling power, and that conscience should reign over them all?
14988_ Scipio._ You grant, then, that a state which is entirely in the power of a faction can not justly be entitled a political community?
14988and shall a philosopher, master of a much better art, seek to ascertain, not what is most true, but what will please the people?
14988and shall custom have such great force, and reason none at all?
14988and that all these things assume too melancholy or too cheerful an appearance through our own error?

14988of what use is understanding?
14988or Philoctetes?

14988or how long will he be Hector?
14988or if he is under the influence of fear, must he not be fearful?
14988or is it because the disorders of the mind are less dangerous than those of the body?
14988or is it no vice to disobey reason?
14988or is it possible for any other member of the body, when swollen or enlarged, to be in any other than a disordered state?
14988or on that of providing counsels for the future, as you, who, by dispelling two mighty perils from our city, have provided for its safety forever?

14988or will you deny that any one who you allow lives well must inevitably live happily?
14988or, rather, whom has it not wounded?
14988said Lælius; or what was the discussion we broke in upon?
14988said he,"did you not perceive by our slight repast of yesterday that I had no occasion for money?"
14988saith he;"do you think the night can furnish no pleasure?"
14988should an affair of such importance be left to the decision of fools, who, by your sect especially, are called madmen?
14988should we be under any difficulty?
14988that where the praise of riding and hunting is highly esteemed, they who practice these arts decline no pain?
14988though he should be deprived of the senses of seeing and hearing?
14988to ease his grief, must we mix him a cup of sweet wine, or something of that kind?

1750''What is it?''
1750''What is that?''
1750''What is that?''
1750''What is the bearing of that remark?''
1750''What is the remedy?''
1750''What is their method?''
1750''What is your drift?''
1750''What makes you say so?''
1750''What shall we say or do to such persons?''
1750''What will be the best way of accomplishing such an object?''
1750''What will they say?''
1750''What, the bodies of young infants?''
1750''Whom do you mean by the third chorus?''
1750''Why do not you and Megillus join us?''
1750''Why do you say"improperly"?''
1750''Why?''
1750''Yes, but how do you apply the figure?''
1750''You imply that the regulation of convivial meetings is a part of education; how will you prove this?''
1750( ATHENIAN: My good sir, what do you mean?)
1750--how shall we answer the divine men?
1750; the insipid forms,''What do you mean?''
1750ATHENIAN: Again; might there not be a judge over these brethren, of whom we were speaking?
1750ATHENIAN: Also that they go of their own accord for the sake of the subsequent benefit?
1750ATHENIAN: And all the other artists just now mentioned, if they were bidden to offer up each their special prayer, would do so?
1750ATHENIAN: And an evil life too?
1750ATHENIAN: And are not all the Gods the chiefest of all guardians, and do they not guard our highest interests?
1750ATHENIAN: And are perception and memory, and opinion and prudence, heightened and increased?
1750ATHENIAN: And are there harbours on the seaboard?
1750ATHENIAN: And are they to consider only, and to be unable to set forth what they think?
1750ATHENIAN: And as the soul orders and inhabits all things that move, however moving, must we not say that she orders also the heavens?
1750ATHENIAN: And can he who does not know what the exact object is which is imitated, ever know whether the resemblance is truthfully executed?
1750ATHENIAN: And did any one ever see this sort of convivial meeting rightly ordered?
1750ATHENIAN: And do not all these seem to you to be commensurable with themselves?
1750ATHENIAN: And do we not further observe that the first shoot of every living thing is by far the greatest and fullest?
1750ATHENIAN: And do you admit also that they have all power which mortals and immortals can have?
1750ATHENIAN: And does not the legislator and every one who is good for anything, hold this fear in the greatest honour?
1750ATHENIAN: And has the place a fair proportion of hill, and plain, and wood?
1750ATHENIAN: And have not thousands and thousands of cities come into being during this period and as many perished?
1750ATHENIAN: And if they were extended to the other Hellenes, would it be an improvement on the present state of things?
1750ATHENIAN: And in the village will there be the same war of family against family, and of individual against individual?
1750ATHENIAN: And is any harm done to the lover of vicious dances or songs, or any good done to the approver of the opposite sort of pleasure?
1750ATHENIAN: And is not the aim of the legislator similar?
1750ATHENIAN: And is not this what you and I have to do at the present moment?
1750ATHENIAN: And is there any neighbouring State?
1750ATHENIAN: And is what you say applicable only to states, or also to villages?
1750ATHENIAN: And may we not now further confirm what was then mentioned?
1750ATHENIAN: And may we suppose this immoderate spirit to be more fatal when found among kings than when among peoples?
1750ATHENIAN: And must not that of which we are in need be the one to which we were just now alluding?
1750ATHENIAN: And nothing can be plainer than that the fairest bodies are those which grow up from infancy in the best and straightest manner?
1750ATHENIAN: And now do we still hold to our former assertion, that rhythms and music in general are imitations of good and evil characters in men?
1750ATHENIAN: And now let me proceed to another question: Who are to be the colonists?
1750ATHENIAN: And now, I beseech you, reflect-- you would admit that we have a threefold knowledge of things?
1750ATHENIAN: And now, what is to be the next step?
1750ATHENIAN: And now, what will this city be?
1750ATHENIAN: And of cities or governments or legislation, about which we are now talking, do you suppose that they could have any recollection at all?
1750ATHENIAN: And one part of this subject has been already discussed by us, and there still remains another to be discussed?
1750ATHENIAN: And ought not the legislator to determine these classes?
1750ATHENIAN: And should each man conceive himself to be his own enemy:--what shall we say?
1750ATHENIAN: And surely justice does not grow apart from temperance?
1750ATHENIAN: And surely they are not like charioteers who are bribed to give up the victory to other chariots?
1750ATHENIAN: And surely we three and they two-- five in all-- have acknowledged that they are good and perfect?
1750ATHENIAN: And that of things in motion some were moving in one place, and others in more than one?
1750ATHENIAN: And the body should have the most exercise when it receives most nourishment?
1750ATHENIAN: And the chorus is made up of two parts, dance and song?
1750ATHENIAN: And the legislator would do likewise?
1750ATHENIAN: And the one is honourable, and the other dishonourable?
1750ATHENIAN: And the one, like other meaner things, is a human quality, but the Gods have no part in anything of the sort?
1750ATHENIAN: And the same view may be taken of the pastime of drinking wine, if we are right in supposing that the same good effect follows?
1750ATHENIAN: And the uneducated is he who has not been trained in the chorus, and the educated is he who has been well trained?
1750ATHENIAN: And their opposites, therefore, would fall under the opposite class?
1750ATHENIAN: And to what earthly rulers can they be compared, or who to them?
1750ATHENIAN: And to which of the above- mentioned classes of guardians would any man compare the Gods without absurdity?
1750ATHENIAN: And we acknowledge that all mortal creatures are the property of the Gods, to whom also the whole of heaven belongs?
1750ATHENIAN: And we may conceive this to be true in the same way of other practices?
1750ATHENIAN: And we must suppose this event to have taken place many ages after the deluge?
1750ATHENIAN: And we ought, if possible, to provide them with a quiet ruler?
1750ATHENIAN: And we were saying just now, that when men are at war the leader ought to be a brave man?
1750ATHENIAN: And what are the principles on which men rule and obey in cities, whether great or small; and similarly in families?
1750ATHENIAN: And what arrangement of life to be found anywhere is preferable to this community which we are now assigning to them?
1750ATHENIAN: And what breadth is?
1750ATHENIAN: And what comes third, and what fourth?
1750ATHENIAN: And what has it been the object of our argument to show?
1750ATHENIAN: And what if besides being a coward he has no skill?
1750ATHENIAN: And what is beauty of figure, or beautiful melody?
1750ATHENIAN: And what is the definition of that which is named''soul''?
1750ATHENIAN: And what is the reason that dances and contests of this sort hardly ever exist in states, at least not to any extent worth speaking of?
1750ATHENIAN: And what strain is suitable for heroes?
1750ATHENIAN: And what strain will they sing, and what muse will they hymn?
1750ATHENIAN: And what would you say about the body, my friend?
1750ATHENIAN: And what would you say of the commander of an army?
1750ATHENIAN: And what would you say of the state?
1750ATHENIAN: And when rejoicing in our good fortune, we are unable to be still?
1750ATHENIAN: And when we see soul in anything, must we not do the same-- must we not admit that this is life?
1750ATHENIAN: And which may be supposed to be the truer judgment-- that of the inferior or of the better soul?
1750ATHENIAN: And which of these ten motions ought we to prefer as being the mightiest and most efficient?
1750ATHENIAN: And will he not be in a most wretched plight?
1750ATHENIAN: And will he who does not know what is true be able to distinguish what is good and bad?
1750ATHENIAN: And would not every one always make laws for the sake of the best?
1750ATHENIAN: And would not that also be the desire of the legislator?
1750ATHENIAN: And yet I have repeated what I am saying a good many times; but I suppose that you have never seen a city which is under a tyranny?
1750ATHENIAN: And you know that these are two distinct things, and that there is a third thing called depth?
1750ATHENIAN: And, according to the true order, the laws relating to marriage should be those which are first determined in every state?
1750ATHENIAN: And, fourthly, that slaves should be ruled, and their masters rule?
1750ATHENIAN: Are we agreed thus far?
1750ATHENIAN: Are we assured that there are two things which lead men to believe in the Gods, as we have already stated?
1750ATHENIAN: Are you speaking of the soul?
1750ATHENIAN: But are sure that it must be vast and incalculable?
1750ATHENIAN: But can a kingship be destroyed, or was any other form of government ever destroyed, by any but the rulers themselves?
1750ATHENIAN: But can a man who does not know a thing, as we were saying, know that the thing is right?
1750ATHENIAN: But do we imagine carelessness and idleness and luxury to be virtues?
1750ATHENIAN: But how can I in one word rightly comprehend all of them?
1750ATHENIAN: But may we not also say that the soul of the slave is utterly corrupt, and that no man of sense ought to trust them?
1750ATHENIAN: But then, my good friends, why did the settlement and legislation of their country turn out so badly?
1750ATHENIAN: But what form of polity are we going to give the city?
1750ATHENIAN: But what shall be our next musical law or type?
1750ATHENIAN: But what was the ruin of this glorious confederacy?
1750ATHENIAN: But, if they are such as we conceive them to be, can we possibly suppose that they ever act in the spirit of carelessness and indolence?
1750ATHENIAN: Can any of us imagine a better mode of effecting this object than that of the Egyptians?
1750ATHENIAN: Can any one who makes such laws escape ridicule?
1750ATHENIAN: Do not all human things partake of the nature of soul?
1750ATHENIAN: Do we not consider each of ourselves to be one?
1750ATHENIAN: Do we not regard all music as representative and imitative?
1750ATHENIAN: Do you believe that there is any truth in ancient traditions?
1750ATHENIAN: Do you imagine that I delay because I am in a perplexity?
1750ATHENIAN: Do you remember our old admission, that if the soul was prior to the body the things of the soul were also prior to those of the body?
1750ATHENIAN: Does a captain require only to have nautical knowledge in order to be a good captain, whether he is sea- sick or not?
1750ATHENIAN: Does he not return to the state of soul in which he was when a young child?
1750ATHENIAN: Does not a little word extinguish all pleasures of that sort?
1750ATHENIAN: Does not the discontented and ungracious nature appear to you to be full of lamentations and sorrows more than a good man ought to be?
1750ATHENIAN: Does not the general aim at victory and superiority in war, and do not the physician and his assistants aim at producing health in the body?
1750ATHENIAN: Does not this kind of fear preserve us in many important ways?
1750ATHENIAN: Fifthly, if I am not mistaken, comes the principle that the stronger shall rule, and the weaker be ruled?
1750ATHENIAN: Good; and what measures ought the legislator to have then taken in order to avert this calamity?
1750ATHENIAN: Have you forgotten, Cleinias, the name of a friend who is really of yesterday?
1750ATHENIAN: He sings well and dances well; now must we add that he sings what is good and dances what is good?
1750ATHENIAN: How would you prove it?
1750ATHENIAN: How, then, shall we reassure him, and get him to sing?
1750ATHENIAN: How, then, was this advantage lost under Cambyses, and again recovered under Darius?
1750ATHENIAN: I mean this: when one thing changes another, and that another, of such will there be any primary changing element?
1750ATHENIAN: I should like to know whether temperance without the other virtues, existing alone in the soul of man, is rightly to be praised or blamed?
1750ATHENIAN: I suppose that courage is a part of virtue?
1750ATHENIAN: I suppose that our enquiry has reference to the soul?
1750ATHENIAN: I suppose that there must be rulers and subjects in states?
1750ATHENIAN: I think that I have clearly stated in the former part of the discussion, but if I did not, let me now state-- CLEINIAS: What?
1750ATHENIAN: I will:--''Surely,''they say,''the governing power makes whatever laws have authority in any state''?
1750ATHENIAN: I will; or rather I will show you my meaning by a question, and do you please to answer me: You know, I suppose, what length is?
1750ATHENIAN: If the soul carries round the sun and moon, and the other stars, does she not carry round each individual of them?
1750ATHENIAN: If we were to see this power existing in any earthy, watery, or fiery substance, simple or compound-- how should we describe it?
1750ATHENIAN: If, then, drinking and amusement were regulated in this way, would not the companions of our revels be improved?
1750ATHENIAN: In all states the birth of children goes back to the connexion of marriage?
1750ATHENIAN: In how many generations would this be attained?
1750ATHENIAN: In the first place, then, the revellers as well as the soldiers will require a ruler?
1750ATHENIAN: In what respect?
1750ATHENIAN: In which, then, of the parts or institutions of the state is any such guardian power to be found?
1750ATHENIAN: Is not the effect of this quite the opposite of the effect of the other?
1750ATHENIAN: Is there any argument which will prove to us that we ought to encourage the taste for drinking instead of doing all we can to avoid it?
1750ATHENIAN: Let us see; what are we saying?
1750ATHENIAN: May I still make use of fable to some extent, in the hope that I may be better able to answer your question: shall I?
1750ATHENIAN: May we not fairly make answer to him on behalf of the poets?
1750ATHENIAN: Must not they be truly unfortunate whose souls are compelled to pass through life always hungering?
1750ATHENIAN: Must we not appoint a sober man and a wise to be our master of the revels?
1750ATHENIAN: Must we not, then, try in every possible way to prevent our youth from even desiring to imitate new modes either in dance or song?
1750ATHENIAN: Next follows the principle that the noble should rule over the ignoble; and, thirdly, that the elder should rule and the younger obey?
1750ATHENIAN: No; but, if there had been, might not such a draught have been of use to the legislator as a test of courage?
1750ATHENIAN: Now, which is in the truest sense inferior, the man who is overcome by pleasure or by pain?
1750ATHENIAN: Of what nature is the movement of mind?
1750ATHENIAN: Once more, are all of us equally delighted with every sort of dance?
1750ATHENIAN: One soul or more?
1750ATHENIAN: Or an artist, who was clever in his profession, but a rogue?
1750ATHENIAN: Reflect; may not banqueters and banquets be said to constitute a kind of meeting?
1750ATHENIAN: Shall we say then that it is the soul which controls heaven and earth, and the whole world?
1750ATHENIAN: Shall we, then, take this as the next point to which our attention should be directed?
1750ATHENIAN: Should you like to see an example of the double and single method in legislation?
1750ATHENIAN: Some one might say to us, What is the drift of all this?
1750ATHENIAN: Suppose that we give this puppet of ours drink,--what will be the effect on him?
1750ATHENIAN: Surely God must not be supposed to have a nature which He Himself hates?
1750ATHENIAN: Tell me, Strangers, is a God or some man supposed to be the author of your laws?
1750ATHENIAN: That is to say, length is naturally commensurable with length, and breadth with breadth, and depth in like manner with depth?
1750ATHENIAN: The brave man is less likely than the coward to be disturbed by fears?
1750ATHENIAN: The case is the same?
1750ATHENIAN: Then I suppose that we must consider this subject?
1750ATHENIAN: Then at that time he will have the least control over himself?
1750ATHENIAN: Then half the subject may now be considered to have been discussed; shall we proceed to the consideration of the other half?
1750ATHENIAN: Then he who is well educated will be able to sing and dance well?
1750ATHENIAN: Then how can we carry out our purpose with decorum?
1750ATHENIAN: Then not only an old man but also a drunkard becomes a second time a child?
1750ATHENIAN: Then now I may proceed?
1750ATHENIAN: Then the unjust life must not only be more base and depraved, but also more unpleasant than the just and holy life?
1750ATHENIAN: Then what life is agreeable to God, and becoming in His followers?
1750ATHENIAN: There are ten thousand likenesses of objects of sight?
1750ATHENIAN: There is surely no difficulty in seeing, Cleinias, what is in accordance with the order of nature?
1750ATHENIAN: They rank under the opposite class?
1750ATHENIAN: This, then, has been said for the sake-- MEGILLUS: Of what?
1750ATHENIAN: True, Cleinias; but then what should the lawgiver do when this evil is of long standing?
1750ATHENIAN: Very good; but may I make one or two corrections in what I have been saying?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, and about the good and the honourable, are we to take the same view?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, and is not rapid growth without proper and abundant exercise the source endless evils in the body?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, but let me ask, how is the country supplied with timber for ship- building?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, but ought we not to desire to see it, and to see where it is to be found?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, now, and does not the argument show that there is one common desire of all mankind?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, then, by the Gods themselves I conjure you to tell me-- if they are to be propitiated, how are they to be propitiated?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, then, if I tell you what are my notions of education, will you consider whether they satisfy you?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, then, if neither of you can answer, shall I answer this question which you deem so absurd?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, then, must we do as we said?
1750ATHENIAN: Well, then; what shall we say or do?
1750ATHENIAN: Were we not a little while ago quite convinced that no silver or golden Plutus should dwell in our state?
1750ATHENIAN: What else can he say who declares that the Gods are always lenient to the doers of unjust acts, if they divide the spoil with them?
1750ATHENIAN: What laws are more worthy of our attention than those which have regulated such cities?
1750ATHENIAN: What will be our first law?
1750ATHENIAN: What, then, leads us astray?
1750ATHENIAN: Which of you will first tell me to which of these classes his own government is to be referred?
1750ATHENIAN: Why, do you think that you can reckon the time which has elapsed since cities first existed and men were citizens of them?
1750ATHENIAN: Will he not live painfully and to his own disadvantage?
1750ATHENIAN: Yes; and courage is a part of virtue, and cowardice of vice?
1750ATHENIAN: You mean to say that there is more rock than plain?
1750ATHENIAN: You will surely remember our saying that all things were either at rest or in motion?
1750ATHENIAN:''And whoever transgresses these laws is punished as an evil- doer by the legislator, who calls the laws just''?
1750ATHENIAN:''And you would rather have a touchstone in which there is no risk and no great danger than the reverse?''
1750ATHENIAN:''Come, legislator,''we will say to him;''what are the conditions which you require in a state before you can organize it?''
1750ATHENIAN:''Did we not hear you just now saying, that the legislator ought not to allow the poets to do what they liked?
1750Again, when any one prefers beauty to virtue, what is this but the real and utter dishonour of the soul?
1750All artists would pray for certain conditions under which to exercise their art: and would not the legislator do the same?
1750Am I not right in maintaining that a good education is that which tends most to the improvement of mind and body?
1750Am I not right in saying that a good education tends to the improvement of body and mind?
1750Am I not right?
1750And according to yet a third view, art has part with them, for surely in a storm it is well to have a pilot?
1750And are there any other uses of well- ordered potations?
1750And are there not three kinds of knowledge-- a knowledge( 1) of the essence,( 2) of the definition,( 3) of the name?
1750And are there wars, not only of state against state, but of village against village, of family against family, of individual against individual?
1750And did not this show that we were dissatisfied with the poets?
1750And did we not say that the souls of the drinkers, when subdued by wine, are made softer and more malleable at the hand of the legislator?
1750And did you ever observe that the gentlemen doctors practise upon freemen, and that slave doctors confine themselves to slaves?
1750And do all men equally like all dances?
1750And do not all human things share in soul, and is not man the most religious of animals and the possession of the Gods?
1750And do they move and rest, some in one place, some in more?
1750And do vicious measures and strains do any harm, or good measures any good to the lovers of them?
1750And do we suppose that the ignorance of this truth is less fatal to kings than to peoples?
1750And do you think that superiority in war is the proper aim of government?
1750And does this extend to states and villages as well as to individuals?
1750And does wine equally stimulate the reasoning faculties?
1750And first, let me ask you who are to be the colonists?
1750And further, that pleasure is different from anger, and has an opposite power, working by persuasion and deceit?
1750And has not each of them had every form of government many times over, now growing larger, now smaller, and again improving or declining?
1750And has this convivial society ever been rightly ordered?
1750And have we not a similar object at the present moment?
1750And have we not proved that the self- moved is the source of motion in other things?
1750And having spoken well, may I add that you have been well answered?
1750And how will they be best distributed?
1750And if he replies''The pleasant,''then I should say to him,''O my father, did you not tell me that I should live as justly as possible''?
1750And if so, are they not to be preferred to other modes of training because they are painless?
1750And if so, we shall be right in saying that the soul is prior and superior to the body, and the body by nature subject and inferior to the soul?
1750And if that is a ridiculous error in speaking of men, how much more in speaking of the Gods?
1750And if they were boxers or wrestlers, would they think of entering the lists without many days''practice?
1750And if this be true, are not the just and the honourable at one time all the same, and at another time in the most diametrical opposition?
1750And in time of war he must be a man of courage and absolutely devoid of fear, if this be possible?
1750And is God to be conceived of as a careless, indolent fellow, such as the poet would compare to a stingless drone?
1750And is a man his own enemy?
1750And is it not as disgraceful for Solon and Lycurgus to lay down false precepts about the institutions of life as for Homer and Tyrtaeus?
1750And is not courage a part of virtue, and cowardice of vice?
1750And is not man the most religious of all animals?
1750And is not this true of ideals of government in general?
1750And is the surrounding country productive, or in need of importations?
1750And is the surrounding country self- supporting?
1750And is there a fair proportion of hill and plain and wood?
1750And is there any higher knowledge than the knowledge of the existence and power of the Gods?
1750And let me ask you a question:--Do we not distinguish two kinds of fear, which are very different?
1750And may not convivial meetings have a similar remedial use?
1750And may we not fear that, if they are allowed to utter injudicious prayers, they will bring the greatest misfortunes on the state?
1750And now let us pass under review the examiners themselves; what will their examination be, and how conducted?
1750And now shall we call in our colonists and make a speech to them?
1750And now, Megillus and Cleinias, how can we put to the proof the value of our words?
1750And now, has our discussion been of any use?
1750And now, how shall we proceed?
1750And now, what is this city?
1750And now, who is to have the superintendence of the country, and what shall be the arrangement?
1750And ought not the legislator to determine these classes?
1750And shall our soldiers go out to fight for life and kindred and property unprepared, because sham fights are thought to be ridiculous?
1750And soul too is life?
1750And still more, who can compel women to eat and drink in public?
1750And that Apollo and the Muses and Dionysus gave us harmony and rhythm?
1750And the motion which is not self- moved will be inferior to this?
1750And the soul which orders all things must also order the heavens?
1750And thinkest thou, bold man, that thou needest not to know this?
1750And this soul of the sun, which is better than the sun, whether driving him in a chariot or employing any other agency, is by every man called a God?
1750And to that I rejoin:--O my father, did you not wish me to live as happily as possible?
1750And we agreed that if the soul was prior to the body, the things of the soul were prior to the things of the body?
1750And what admonition can be more appropriate than the assurance which we formerly gave, that the souls of the dead watch over mortal affairs?
1750And what can be worse than this?
1750And what caused their ruin?
1750And what greater good or evil can any destiny ever make us undergo?
1750And what honours shall be paid to these examiners, whom the whole state counts worthy of the rewards of virtue?
1750And what is a true taste?
1750And what is the definition of the thing which is named''soul''?
1750And what is the right way of living?
1750And what shall be the punishment suited to him who has thrown away his weapons of defence?
1750And what shall he suffer who slays him who of all men, as they say, is his own best friend?
1750And what songs shall he sing?
1750And what, then, is to be regarded as the origin of government?
1750And which is the truer judgment?
1750And which is worse,--to be overcome by pain, or by pleasure?
1750And who would ever think of establishing such a practice by law?
1750And why?
1750And will any legislator be found to make such actions legal?
1750And yet if he goes to a doctor or a gymnastic master, does he not make himself ill in the hope of getting well?
1750And yet, why am I disquieted, for I believe that the same principle applies equally to all human things?
1750And you compel your poets to declare that the righteous are happy, and that the wicked man, even if he be as rich as Midas, is unhappy?
1750And, further, may we not suppose that the fear of impiety will enable them to master that which other inferior people have mastered?
1750Any neighbouring states?
1750Any one may easily imagine the questions which have to be asked in all such cases: What did he wound, or whom, or how, or when?
1750Are beautiful things not the same to us all, or are they the same in themselves, but not in our opinion of them?
1750Are men who have these institutions only to eat and fatten like beasts?
1750Are not those who train in gymnasia, at first beginning reduced to a state of weakness?
1750Are our guardians only to know that each of them is many, or also how and in what way they are one?
1750Are there harbours?
1750Are they charioteers of contending pairs of steeds, or pilots of vessels?
1750Are they not competitors in the greatest of all contests, and have they not innumerable rivals?
1750Are they not strivers for mastery in the greatest of combats?
1750Are we likely ever to be in a virtuous condition, if we can not tell whether virtue is many, or four, or one?
1750Are we to live in sports always?
1750Are you not surprised at any one of his own accord bringing upon himself deformity, leanness, ugliness, decrepitude?
1750As far as we can guess at this distance of time, what happened was as follows:-- MEGILLUS: What?
1750At the beginning of the third book, Plato abruptly asks the question, What is the origin of states?
1750But admitting all this, what follows?
1750But can any one form an estimate of any society, which is intended to have a ruler, and which he only sees in an unruly and lawless state?
1750But did we not say that kingdoms or governments can only be subverted by themselves?
1750But how can a state be in a right condition which can not justly award honour?
1750But how can we make them sing?
1750But how can we take precautions against the unnatural loves of either sex, from which innumerable evils have come upon individuals and cities?
1750But how ought we to define courage?
1750But if honour is to be attributed to justice, are just sufferings honourable, or only just actions?
1750But is our own language consistent?
1750But is there any potion which might serve as a test of overboldness and excessive and indiscreet boasting?
1750But shall this new word of ours, like an oracle of God, be only spoken, and get away without giving any explanation or verification of itself?
1750But then who is to arrange all this?
1750But then, what should the lawgiver do?
1750But to whom are they to be taught, and when?
1750But what do I mean?
1750But what is a true taste?
1750But what weapons shall we use, and how shall we direct them?
1750But where shall we find the magistrate who is worthy to supervise them or look into their short- comings and crooked ways?
1750But who, Cleinias and Megillus, will order for us in the colony all this matter of the magistrates, and the scrutinies of them?
1750But why are they so rarely practised?
1750But why have I said all this?
1750But, in the present unfortunate state of opinion, who would dare to establish them?
1750CLEINIAS: About what thing?
1750CLEINIAS: About what?
1750CLEINIAS: About what?
1750CLEINIAS: And can you show that what you have been saying is true?
1750CLEINIAS: And how, Stranger, can we act most fairly under the circumstances?
1750CLEINIAS: And that mind was the leader of the four, and that to her the three other virtues and all other things ought to have regard?
1750CLEINIAS: And we said that virtue was of four kinds?
1750CLEINIAS: And what are the laws about music and dancing in Egypt?
1750CLEINIAS: And what do you call the true mode of service?
1750CLEINIAS: And what is the inference?
1750CLEINIAS: And what law would you advise them to pass if this one failed?
1750CLEINIAS: And what necessities of knowledge are there, Stranger, which are divine and not human?
1750CLEINIAS: And what ought the legislator to decide, and what ought he to leave to the courts of law?
1750CLEINIAS: And who is this God?
1750CLEINIAS: And would he not be right?
1750CLEINIAS: Assuredly: but may we not now, Stranger, prescribe these studies as necessary, and so fill up the lacunae of our laws?
1750CLEINIAS: But do you really imagine, Stranger, that this is the way in which poets generally compose in States at the present day?
1750CLEINIAS: But has such a draught, Stranger, ever really been known among men?
1750CLEINIAS: But how will an old man be able to attend to such great charges?
1750CLEINIAS: But is there any difficulty in proving the existence of the Gods?
1750CLEINIAS: But what is the fact?
1750CLEINIAS: But why is the word''nature''wrong?
1750CLEINIAS: But why, Stranger, do not you and Megillus take a part in our new city?
1750CLEINIAS: But, Stranger, are we to impose this great amount of exercise upon newly- born infants?
1750CLEINIAS: By what possible arguments, Stranger, can any man persuade himself of such a monstrous doctrine?
1750CLEINIAS: Consistent in what?
1750CLEINIAS: For example, where?
1750CLEINIAS: Having what in view do you ask that question?
1750CLEINIAS: How can I possibly say so?
1750CLEINIAS: How can there be anything greater?
1750CLEINIAS: How can they have any other?
1750CLEINIAS: How can they, when the very colours of their faces differ?
1750CLEINIAS: How can they?
1750CLEINIAS: How can we have an examination and also a good one?
1750CLEINIAS: How do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: How do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: How do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: How does that bear upon any of the matters of which we have been speaking?
1750CLEINIAS: How is that arranged?
1750CLEINIAS: How is that?
1750CLEINIAS: How is that?
1750CLEINIAS: How is that?
1750CLEINIAS: How shall we proceed, Stranger?
1750CLEINIAS: How so?
1750CLEINIAS: How so?
1750CLEINIAS: How so?
1750CLEINIAS: How so?
1750CLEINIAS: How two?
1750CLEINIAS: How would that be?
1750CLEINIAS: How would you advise the guardian of the law to act?
1750CLEINIAS: How?
1750CLEINIAS: How?
1750CLEINIAS: How?
1750CLEINIAS: How?
1750CLEINIAS: How?
1750CLEINIAS: I suppose, Megillus, that this companion virtue of which the Stranger speaks, must be temperance?
1750CLEINIAS: In what respect?
1750CLEINIAS: In what respect?
1750CLEINIAS: In what respect?
1750CLEINIAS: In what way do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: In what way?
1750CLEINIAS: In what way?
1750CLEINIAS: Is not that true?
1750CLEINIAS: Lies of what nature?
1750CLEINIAS: Of what are you speaking?
1750CLEINIAS: Of what victory are you speaking?
1750CLEINIAS: Once more, what do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: Once more, what do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: Such as what?
1750CLEINIAS: Then what are we to do in our own country, Stranger, seeing that there are such differences in the treatment of slaves by their owners?
1750CLEINIAS: Then what is to be the inference?
1750CLEINIAS: Then why was there any need to speak of the matter at all?
1750CLEINIAS: To what are you referring?
1750CLEINIAS: To what are you referring?
1750CLEINIAS: To what are you referring?
1750CLEINIAS: To what do you refer in this instance?
1750CLEINIAS: To what do you refer?
1750CLEINIAS: To what do you refer?
1750CLEINIAS: To what?
1750CLEINIAS: True; but what is this study which you describe as wonderful and fitting for youth to learn, but of which we are ignorant?
1750CLEINIAS: Very good, Stranger; and what shall we say in answer to these objections?
1750CLEINIAS: Very good: And now what, according to you, is to be the salvation of our government and of our laws, and how is it to be effected?
1750CLEINIAS: Well, Stranger, and may he not very fairly say so?
1750CLEINIAS: Well, Stranger, and what is the reason of this?
1750CLEINIAS: Well, and have we not already opposed the popular voice in many important enactments?
1750CLEINIAS: What answer shall we make to him?
1750CLEINIAS: What are the inconsistencies which you observe in us?
1750CLEINIAS: What are the two kinds?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are they?
1750CLEINIAS: What are we to observe about it?
1750CLEINIAS: What are you going to ask?
1750CLEINIAS: What consolation will you offer him?
1750CLEINIAS: What direction?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you bid us keep in mind?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean, Stranger, by this remark?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean, Stranger?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean, and what new thing is this?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean, my good sir?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What doctrine do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What had you in your mind when you said that?
1750CLEINIAS: What have we to do?
1750CLEINIAS: What have you got to say?
1750CLEINIAS: What have you to say, Stranger?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is it?
1750CLEINIAS: What is that story?
1750CLEINIAS: What is that?
1750CLEINIAS: What is that?
1750CLEINIAS: What is that?
1750CLEINIAS: What is that?
1750CLEINIAS: What is the cause, Stranger, of this extreme hesitation?
1750CLEINIAS: What is the other half, and how do you divide the subject?
1750CLEINIAS: What is their method?
1750CLEINIAS: What is this, Stranger, that you are saying?
1750CLEINIAS: What jests?
1750CLEINIAS: What kind of ignorance do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: What makes you say so?
1750CLEINIAS: What method can we devise of electing them?
1750CLEINIAS: What more have you to say?
1750CLEINIAS: What ought we to say then?
1750CLEINIAS: What penalty?
1750CLEINIAS: What question?
1750CLEINIAS: What shall we say or do to these persons?
1750CLEINIAS: What terms?
1750CLEINIAS: What then are we to do, Stranger, under these circumstances?
1750CLEINIAS: What traditions?
1750CLEINIAS: What troubles you, Stranger?
1750CLEINIAS: What was the error?
1750CLEINIAS: What would you expect?
1750CLEINIAS: What, Stranger, is the drift of your comparison?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: What?
1750CLEINIAS: Which are they?
1750CLEINIAS: Which do you mean?
1750CLEINIAS: Which will you take?
1750CLEINIAS: Who are those who compose the third choir, Stranger?
1750CLEINIAS: Why so?
1750CLEINIAS: Why, Stranger, what other reason is there?
1750CLEINIAS: Will you try to be a little plainer?
1750CLEINIAS: You are speaking of harmless pleasure, are you not?
1750CLEINIAS: You mean that in each of them there is a principle of superiority or inferiority to self?
1750CLEINIAS: You mean the evil of blaming antiquity in states?
1750CLEINIAS: You mean to ask whether we should call such a self- moving power life?
1750CLEINIAS: You mean to say that the essence which is defined as the self- moved is the same with that which has the name soul?
1750CLEINIAS: You mean, I suppose, their serious and noble pursuit?
1750CLEINIAS: You would assume, as you say, a tyrant who was young, temperate, quick at learning, having a good memory, courageous, of a noble nature?
1750CLEINIAS: Your words are reasonable enough; but shall we find any good or true notion about the stars?
1750Can he who is good for anything be ignorant of all this without discredit where great and glorious truths are concerned?
1750Can there be any more philosophical speculation than how to reduce many things which are unlike to one idea?
1750Can we be right in praising any one who cares for great matters and leaves the small to take care of themselves?
1750Can we conceive of any other than that which has been already given-- the motion which can move itself?
1750Can we keep our temper with them, when they compel us to argue on such a theme?
1750Can we say?
1750Can you tell me?
1750Come, legislator, let us say to him, and what are the conditions which you would have?
1750Did we not arrive at the conclusion that parents ought to govern their children, and the elder the younger, and the noble the ignoble?
1750Did we not imply that the poets are not always quite capable of knowing what is good or evil?
1750Did you ever observe that there are beautiful things of which men often say,''What wonders they would have effected if rightly used?''
1750Do not these qualities entirely desert a man if he becomes saturated with drink?
1750Do some figures, then, appear to be beautiful which are not?
1750Do we not often hear of wages being adjusted in proportion to the profits of employers?
1750Do you agree with me thus far?
1750Do you mean some form of democracy, or oligarchy, or aristocracy, or monarchy?
1750Do you not see that a drunken pilot or a drunken ruler of any sort will ruin ship, chariot, army-- anything, in short, of which he has the direction?
1750Do you remember the image in which I likened the men for whom laws are now made to slaves who are doctored by slaves?
1750Do you remember the names of the Fates?
1750For boys and girls ought to learn to dance and practise gymnastic exercises-- ought they not?
1750For do not love, ignorance, avarice, wealth, beauty, strength, while they stimulate courage, also madden and intoxicate the soul?
1750For of doctors are there not two kinds?
1750For reflect-- if women are not to have the education of men, some other must be found for them, and what other can we propose?
1750For surely neither of them can be charged with neglect if they fail to attend to something which is beyond their power?
1750For there is a thing which has occurred times without number in states-- CLEINIAS: What thing?
1750For what good can the just man have which is separated from pleasure?
1750For why should a writer say over again, in a more imperfect form, what he had already said in his most finished style and manner?
1750For, O my friends, how can there be the least shadow of wisdom when there is no harmony?
1750Have we already forgotten what was said a little while ago?
1750Have we ever determined in what respect these two classes of actions differ from one another?
1750Have we not already decided that no gold or silver Plutus shall be allowed in our city?
1750Have we not heard of Iccus of Tarentum and other wrestlers who abstained wholly for a time?
1750Have we not mentioned all motions that there are, and comprehended them under their kinds and numbered them with the exception, my friends, of two?
1750He will say,--''May I not do what I will with my own, and give much to my friends, and little to my enemies?''
1750Here are three kinds of love: ought the legislator to prohibit all of them equally, or to allow the virtuous love to remain?
1750How can a thing which is moved by another ever be the beginning of change?
1750How can a word not understood be the basis of legislation?
1750How can they be saved from those passions which reason forbids them to indulge, and which are the ruin of so many?
1750How can we legislate about these consecrated strains without incurring ridicule?
1750How can we prove that what I am saying is true?
1750How could he have?
1750How in the less can we find an image of the greater?
1750How ought he to answer this question?
1750How shall we devise a remedy and way of escape out of so great a danger?
1750How shall we perfect the ideas of our guardians about virtue?
1750How then can the advocate of justice be other than noble?
1750How then can we rightly order the distribution of the land?
1750I should like to know whether you and Megillus would agree with me in what I am about to say; for my opinion is-- CLEINIAS: What?
1750I suppose that you have never seen a city which is subject to a tyranny?
1750I will simply ask once more whether we shall lay down as one of our principles of song-- CLEINIAS: What?
1750If so, in what kind of sports?
1750If they do, how can they escape the fate of a fatted beast, which is to be torn in pieces by some other beast more valiant than himself?
1750In a ship, when the pilot and the sailors unite their perceptions with the piloting mind, do they not save both themselves and their craft?
1750In the first place, let us-- CLEINIAS: Do what?
1750In the next place, we acknowledge that the soul is the cause of good and evil, just and unjust, if we suppose her to be the cause of all things?
1750In the process of gestation?
1750In what other manner could we ever study the art of self- defence?
1750Is he the better who accomplishes his ends in a double way, or he who works in one way, and that the ruder and inferior?
1750Is not justice noble, which has been the civiliser of humanity?
1750Is not justice the civilizer of mankind?
1750Is not such knowledge a disgrace to a man of sense, especially where great and glorious truths are concerned?
1750Is not the origin of music as follows?
1750Is not this the fact?
1750Is the approval of gods and men to be deemed good and honourable, but unpleasant, and their disapproval the reverse?
1750Is the poet to train his choruses as he pleases, without reference to virtue or vice?
1750Is there any other way in which his neglect can be explained?
1750Is there not one claim of authority which is always just,--that of fathers and mothers and in general of progenitors to rule over their offspring?
1750Is there timber for ship- building?
1750Is this due to the ignorance of mankind and their legislators?
1750Let me ask again, Are you and I agreed about this?
1750Let me ask another question: What is the name which is given to self- motion when manifested in any material substance?
1750Let us see: Are there not two kinds of fear-- fear of evil and fear of an evil reputation?
1750Let us then once more ask the question, To what end has all this been said?
1750Looking at these and the like examples, what ought we to do concerning property in slaves?
1750MEGILLUS: And would he not be justified?
1750MEGILLUS: But were you not right and wise in speaking as you did, and we in assenting to you?
1750MEGILLUS: How do you mean; and why do you blame them?
1750MEGILLUS: How do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: Ought I to answer first, since I am the elder?
1750MEGILLUS: To what are you referring, and what do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: What advantage?
1750MEGILLUS: What do you mean, Stranger?
1750MEGILLUS: What do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: What do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: What is it?
1750MEGILLUS: What is it?
1750MEGILLUS: What is it?
1750MEGILLUS: What laws do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: What security?
1750MEGILLUS: What shall we do, Cleinias?
1750MEGILLUS: What word?
1750MEGILLUS: When do you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: When the son is young and foolish, you mean?
1750MEGILLUS: Why, my good friend, how could any Lacedaemonian say anything else?
1750MEGILLUS: Yes; but will he ever succeed in making all mankind use the same language about them?
1750MEGILLUS: You are speaking of temperance?
1750May any one come from any city of Crete?
1750May any one come out of all Crete; and is the idea that the population in the several states is too numerous for the means of subsistence?
1750May we not suppose that this was the intention with which the men of those days framed the constitutions of their states?
1750May we not suppose the colonists to have arrived, and proceed to make our speech to them?
1750May we say that they are?
1750Mem.)?
1750Must not he who maintains that the Gods can be propitiated argue thus?
1750Must not that which is moved by others finally depend upon that which is moved by itself?
1750Must they not be at least rulers who have to order unceasingly the whole heaven?
1750Must we not reply,''The self- moved''?
1750My first question is, Why has the law ordained that you should have common meals, and practise gymnastics, and bear arms?
1750Next as to temperance: what institutions have you which are adapted to promote temperance?
1750No; but suppose that there were; might not the legislator use such a mode of testing courage and cowardice?
1750Now how can we create this quality of immobility in the laws?
1750Now is not the use of both methods far better than the use of either alone?
1750Now is this a true way of speaking or of acting?
1750Now the voluntary can not be the involuntary; and if you two come to me and say,''Then shall we legislate for our city?''
1750Now what class or institution is there in our state which has such a saving power?
1750Now what course ought we to take?
1750Now which is the better way of proceeding in a physician and in a trainer?
1750Now which of them is right?
1750Now, ought we not to forbid such strains as these?
1750Now, what will be the form of such prefaces?
1750Once more then, as I have asked more than once, shall this be our third law, and type, and model-- What do you say?
1750One soul or more?
1750Or a general who is sick and drunk with fear and ignorant of war a good general?
1750Or can we give our guardians a more precise knowledge of virtue in speech and action than the many have?
1750Or if we had no adversary at all, animate or inanimate, should we not venture in the dearth of antagonists to spar by ourselves?
1750Or is the neither doing nor suffering evil good and honourable, although not pleasant?
1750Or rather, do we not all know the reasons?
1750Or shall we leave the preamble and go on to the laws?
1750Or try the matter by the test which we apply to all laws,--who will say that the permission of such things tends to virtue?
1750Or would you abstain from using the potion altogether, although you have no reason for abstaining?''
1750Or would you ascertain whether he is licentious by putting your wife or daughter into his hands?
1750Ought not prayers to be offered up to the Gods when we sacrifice?
1750Our minister of education will have a great deal to do; and being an old man, how will he get through so much work?
1750People say that he who gives us most pleasure at such festivals is to win the palm: are they right?
1750Perhaps you will ask me what is the bearing of these remarks?
1750Pol.)?
1750Seeing then that there are these three sorts of love, ought the law to prohibit and forbid them all to exist among us?
1750Shall I give his answer?
1750Shall I tell you why?
1750Shall I tell you?
1750Shall I try to divine?
1750Shall these be our rules, and shall we impose a penalty for the neglect of them?
1750Shall they sing a choric strain?
1750Shall they, like the women of Thrace, tend cattle and till the ground; or, like our own, spin and weave, and take care of the house?
1750Shall this be our constitution, or shall all be educated alike, and the special training be given up?
1750Shall we allow a stranger to run down Sparta in this fashion?
1750Shall we assume so much, or do we still entertain doubts?
1750Shall we be so foolish as to let them off who would give us the most beautiful and also the most useful of songs?
1750Shall we begin, then, with the acknowledgment that education is first given through Apollo and the Muses?
1750Shall we contrive some means of engrafting this knowledge on our state, or give the matter up?
1750Shall we impose penalties for the neglect of these rules?
1750Shall we make a defence of ourselves?
1750Shall we now proceed to speak of this?
1750Shall we proceed to the other half or not?
1750Shall we propose this?
1750Shall we say that glory and fame, coming from Gods and men, though good and noble, are nevertheless unpleasant, and infamy pleasant?
1750Shall we suppose some impious man to charge us with assuming the existence of the Gods, and make a defence?
1750Shall we then propose as one of our laws and models relating to the Muses-- CLEINIAS: What?
1750Shall we try to prove that it is so?
1750Some one will ask, why not?
1750Strangers, let me ask a question of you-- Was a God or a man the author of your laws?
1750Such a sadness was the natural effect of declining years and failing powers, which make men ask,''After all, what profit is there in life?''
1750Suppose a person to express his admiration of wealth or rank, does he not do so under the idea that by the help of these he can attain his desires?
1750Suppose a physician who had to cure a patient-- would he ever succeed if he attended to the great and neglected the little?
1750Suppose that we make answer as follows: CLEINIAS: How would you answer?
1750Suppose these competitors to meet, and not these only, but innumerable others as well-- can you tell me who ought to be the victor?
1750Surely we should say that to be temperate and to possess mind belongs to virtue, and the contrary to vice?
1750Tell me whether you assent to my words?
1750Tell me, Megillus, were not the common meals and gymnastic training instituted by your legislator with a view to war?
1750Tell me, by the Gods, I say, how the Gods are to be propitiated by us?
1750Tell me, then, whence do you draw your recruits in the present enterprise?
1750Tell me,--were not first the syssitia, and secondly the gymnasia, invented by your legislator with a view to war?
1750The judge of the imitation is required to know, therefore, first the original, secondly the truth, and thirdly the merit of the execution?
1750The legislator may be conceived to make the following address to himself:--With what object am I training my citizens?
1750The legislator may be supposed to argue the question in his own mind: Who are my citizens for whom I have set in order the city?
1750The question runs up into wider ones-- What is the general effect of asceticism on human nature?
1750The true guardian of the laws ought to know their truth, and should also be able to interpret and execute them?
1750Then every one should be both fearful and fearless?
1750Then how can we believe that drinking should be encouraged?
1750Then what was the reason why their legislation signally failed?
1750Then, if we know what is good and bad in song and dance, we shall know what education is?
1750There is a convivial form of society-- is there not?
1750This makes us ask, What shall we do about slaves?
1750This proves that the Gods hear the curses of parents who are wronged; and shall we doubt that they hear and fulfil their blessings too?''
1750To which of these classes, Megillus, do you refer your own state?
1750To whom shall we compare them?
1750To whom then is our state to be entrusted?
1750Was it because they did not know how wisely Hesiod spoke when he said that the half is often more than the whole?
1750We are agreed( are we not?)
1750Well, are we not agreed that our guardians ought to know, not only how the good and the honourable are many, but also how they are one?
1750Well, but is courage only a combat against fear and pain, and not against pleasure and flattery?
1750What are they, and how many in number?
1750What better and more innocent test of character is there than festive intercourse?
1750What constitution shall we give-- democracy, oligarchy, or aristocracy?''
1750What do you say, friend Megillus?
1750What do you say?
1750What do you say?
1750What do you think of ancient traditions about deluges and destructions of mankind, and the preservation of a remnant?
1750What do you think?
1750What have you to say?
1750What inference is to be drawn from all this?
1750What is he to do?
1750What is the inference?
1750What is the nature of the movement of the soul?
1750What is there cheaper, or more innocent?
1750What is there which so surely gives victory and safety in war?
1750What life, then, is pleasing to God?
1750What other aim would they have had?
1750What remedies can a city find for this disease?
1750What remedy can a city of sense find against this disease?
1750What say you?
1750What shall the law prescribe, and what shall be left to the judge?
1750What then shall we do?
1750What would you like?
1750What would you say then to leaving these matters for the present, and passing on to some other question of law?
1750What, then, shall we do?
1750Where is an ordinance about pleasure similar to that about pain to be found in your laws?
1750Wherefore, also, the legislator ought often to impress upon himself the question--''What do I want?''
1750Wherefore, seeing that human things are thus ordered, what should a wise man do or think, or not do or think''?
1750Wherefore, seeing these things, what ought we to do or think?
1750Which is the doubtful kind, and how are the two to be distinguished?
1750Whither are we running away?
1750Who are they, and what is their nature?
1750Who can be calm when he is called upon to prove the existence of the Gods?
1750Who could select 180 persons of each class, fitted to be senators?
1750Who knows but we may be aiming at the greater, and fail of attaining the lesser?
1750Who will ever believe this?
1750Why do I mention this?
1750Why do I say this?
1750Why do we call virtue, which is a single thing, by the two names of wisdom and courage?
1750Why have I made this remark?
1750Why, surely our courage is shown in imagining that the new colonists will quietly receive our laws?
1750Why, then, does any dishonour attach to a beneficent occupation?
1750Will any one be able to imitate the human body, if he does not know the number, proportion, colour, or figure of the limbs?
1750Will he be able to command merely because he has military skill if he be a coward, who, when danger comes, is sick and drunk with fear?
1750Will he who is seduced learn the habit of courage; or will the seducer acquire temperance?
1750Will not a man be able to judge of it best from a point of view in which he may behold the progress of states and their transitions to good or evil?
1750Will not a man find abstinence more easy when his body is sound than when he is in ill- condition?
1750Will not all men censure as womanly him who imitates the woman?
1750Will not poets and spectators and actors all agree in this?
1750Will not the fear of impiety enable them to conquer that which many who were inferior to them have conquered?
1750Will not the legislator, observing the order of nature, begin by making regulations for states about births?
1750Will such passions implant in the soul of him who is seduced the habit of courage, or in the soul of the seducer the principle of temperance?
1750Will the same figures or sounds be equally well adapted to the manly and the cowardly when they are in trouble?
1750Will this be the way?
1750Will you admit that in all societies there must be a leader?
1750Will you allow me then to explain how I should have liked to have heard you expound the matter?
1750Will you hear me tell how great I deem the evil to be?
1750Would a pilot who is sea- sick be a good pilot?
1750Would any man willingly degrade or weaken that?
1750Would not this have been the way?
1750Would you make a bargain with a man in order to try whether he is honest?
1750Yes; but may I tell you the effect which the preceding discourse has had upon me?
1750Yes; but of what nature is this union?
1750You admit that wine stimulates the passions?
1750You are aware that there are these two classes of doctors?
1750You are speaking of the degradation of the soul: but how about the body?
1750You know that there are such things as length, breadth, and depth?
1750You will admit that anger is of a violent and destructive nature?
1750You will say, How, and with what weapons?
1750You will surely grant so much?
1750You would agree?
1750and if to be just is to be happy, what is that principle of happiness or good which is superior to pleasure?
1750and should not other writings either agree with them, or if they disagree, be deemed ridiculous?
1750and why are you so perplexed in your mind?
1750and''Do I attain my aim, or do I miss the mark?''
1750how shall we give our state a head and eyes?
1750it was a question requiring serious consideration-- Who should execute a sentence?
1750or are some things in motion, and some things at rest?
1750or how can the lawgiver rightly direct you about them?
1750or is there any way in which our city can be made to resemble the head and senses of rational beings because possessing such a guardian power?
1750or rather, who will not blame the effeminacy of him who yields to pleasures and is unable to hold out against them?
1750or shall we give heed to them above all?
1750or shall we leave them and return to our laws, lest the prelude should become longer than the law?
1750or shall we make the punishment of all to be alike, under the idea that there is no such thing as voluntary crime?
1750or what settlements of states are greater or more famous?
1750or when wealth, beauty, strength, and all the intoxicating workings of pleasure madden us?
1750that it is a principle of wisdom and virtue, or a principle which has neither wisdom nor virtue?
1750will you explain the law more precisely?
8688[ 364] And wo n''t we laugh? 8688 ''Tis garlic then? 8688 ''Tis not about that I ask you, but which, according to you, is the best measure, the trimeter or the tetrameter? 8688 (_ Addressing the Athenian._) Do n''t you feel of mornings a strong nervous tension? 8688 (_ He perceives Trygaeus astride his beetle._) Why, what plague is this? 8688 (_ Hearing money mentioned Clean turns his head, and Agoracritus seizes the opportunity to snatch away the stewed hare._) Where, where, I say? 8688 (_ Peace whispers into Hermes''ear._) Is that your grievance against them? 8688 (_ Pseudartabas makes a negative sign._) Then our ambassadors are seeking to deceive us? 8688 (_ To Peace._) What now? 8688 (_ To Strepsiades._) Did you hear their voices mingling with the awful growling of the thunder? 8688 (_ addressing one of his attendant officers_) what are you gaping at the crows about? 8688 --while that infamous_ Mad Ox_[423] was bellowing away on his side.--Do ye not blush, ye women, for your wild and uproarious doings? 8688 ... Why did I borrow these? 8688 ... and to converse with the clouds, who are our genii? 8688 A fatted bull? 8688 A great fat swine then? 8688 A purse? 8688 A sheep? 8688 Acharnians, what means this threat? 8688 Again you come back without it? 8688 All these? 8688 Am I a beggar? 8688 Am I compelled to hear myself thus abused, and merely because I love you? 8688 Am I drivelling because I demand my money? 8688 An you pity me, tell me, how did you get the idea to filch it from him? 8688 Anchovies, pottery? 8688 And Aphrodite, whose mysteries you have not celebrated for so long? 8688 And Attic figs? 8688 And actually you would claim the right to demand your money, when you know not a syllable of these celestial phenomena? 8688 And after him, who? 8688 And as to the rest, what do you wish to sell me? 8688 And do we give you two drachmae, that you should treat us to all this humbug? 8688 And do you see with what pleasure this sickle- maker is making long noses at the spear- maker? 8688 And first, answer me, did you beat me in my childhood? 8688 And for what lessons? 8688 And how could she speak to the spectators? 8688 And how ever did he set about measuring it? 8688 And how long was he replacing his dress? 8688 And how was it you did not see that you were getting so much into debt? 8688 And how, pray, would you propose to restore peace and order in all the countries of Greece? 8688 And how? 8688 And if I batter you to pieces with my fists, what will you do? 8688 And if he does n''t tell you? 8688 And if it fell into the watery depths of the sea, could it escape with its wings? 8688 And is it not right and meet? 8688 And is it not rightly done, since he refuses military service? 8688 And is it thick too? 8688 And not to Ares? 8688 And of what do they speak? 8688 And our demagogues? 8688 And our tragic poets? 8688 And pray, who are you? 8688 And should we still be dwelling in this city without this protecting stew- pan? 8688 And that is? 8688 And that? 8688 And the dragon? 8688 And the leather- seller must destroy the sheep- seller? 8688 And the spectators, what are they for the most part? 8688 And this female? 8688 And this other one? 8688 And this young woman, what countrywoman is she? 8688 And those stars like sparks, that plough up the air as they dart across the sky? 8688 And what am I to do? 8688 And what are masculine names? 8688 And what did he say about the gnat? 8688 And what did you learn from the master of exercises? 8688 And what do you drink yourself then, to be able all alone by yourself to dumbfound and stupefy the city so with your clamour? 8688 And what good can be learnt of them? 8688 And what harbour will you put in at? 8688 And what have you done with your sandals, you poor fool? 8688 And what if I prove to you by our school reasoning, that one ought to beat one''s mother? 8688 And what is he going to do with his mortar? 8688 And what is it I am to gain? 8688 And what is it I should learn? 8688 And what is life worth without these? 8688 And what is their rump looking at in the heavens? 8688 And what is this one''s fate? 8688 And what punishment will you inflict upon this Paphlagonian, the cause of all my troubles? 8688 And what shall I do with this tripe? 8688 And what will you give me for my trouble? 8688 And what will you give me in return? 8688 And when I lie beside her and caress her bosoms? 8688 And when they see Simon, that thiever of public money, what do they do then? 8688 And when you had become a man, what trade did you follow? 8688 And where are my neighbours of Cicynna? 8688 And wherein lies the harm of being so? 8688 And who is this Lamachus, who demands an eel? 8688 And who is this man suspended up in a basket? 8688 And who is this? 8688 And who says so? 8688 And who, pray, has been maltreating you? 8688 And whose are yours? 8688 And why bolts and bars? 8688 And why did he also name the last day of the old? 8688 And why do you always receive your pay, when none of these others ever get any? 8688 And why do you bite me? 8688 And why have the gods moved away? 8688 And why not? 8688 And why not? 8688 And why? 8688 And why? 8688 And why_ do_ you summon us, dear Lysistrata? 8688 And wise Cratinus, is he still alive? 8688 And you dare to demand money of me, when you are so ignorant? 8688 And you did not know, you never suspected, that they were goddesses? 8688 And you do n''t make him obey you? 8688 And you, Dracyllus, Euphorides or Prinides, have you knowledge of Ecbatana or Chaonia? 8688 And you, my pretty flat- fish, who declared just now they might split you in two? 8688 And you, old death- in- life, with your fire? 8688 And you, who are you? 8688 And you? 8688 And yours? 8688 And''tis with your yarn, and your skeins, and your spools, you think to appease so many bitter enmities, you silly women? 8688 And''twas with justice too; did they not break down my black fig tree, which I had planted and dunged with my own hands? 8688 Any statue? 8688 Are there any good men? 8688 Are we late, Lysistrata? 8688 Are you mad? 8688 Are you not going to cover your head immediately and ponder? 8688 Are you not holding back the salt? 8688 Are you surprised in adultery? 8688 Art thou sensible of the dangerous battle we are about to engage upon in defending the Lacedaemonians? 8688 Because you have put in too thick a wick.... Later, when we had this boy, what was to be his name? 8688 Being but a mortal, can you be stronger than a god? 8688 Believe you? 8688 Bound by such ties of mutual kindness, how can you bear to be at war? 8688 But I bethink me, shall I give her something to eat? 8688 But are they not going to show themselves? 8688 But are you a man or a Priapus, pray? 8688 But as you are so strong, why did you not circumcise me? 8688 But come( there are only friends who hear me), why accuse the Laconians of all our woes? 8688 But come, tell me what I_ should_ say? 8688 But come, tell me, you, who sell so many skins, have you ever made him a present of a pair of soles for his slippers? 8688 But do n''t you think the men will march up against us? 8688 But do n''t you think they want you just as badly? 8688 But do you believe there is more water in the sea now than there was formerly? 8688 But have you brought me a treaty? 8688 But how can that be? 8688 But how can you wipe, idiot? 8688 But how did the fight begin? 8688 But how to purify myself, before going back into the citadel? 8688 But how will you make the journey? 8688 But how, great gods? 8688 But if I do n''t want to be saved? 8688 But if our husbands drag us by main force into the bedchamber? 8688 But if they beat us? 8688 But if you imitate the cocks in all things, why do n''t you scratch up the dunghill, why do n''t you sleep on a perch? 8688 But if-- which the gods forbid-- we do refrain altogether from what you say, should we get peace any sooner? 8688 But is it my death you seek then, my death? 8688 But is it not Zeus who forces them to move? 8688 But my oath? 8688 But not the women? 8688 But perhaps some spectator, some beardless youth, who thinks himself a sage, will say,What is this?
8688But presently we heard you asking out loud in the open street:"Is there never a man left in Athens?"
8688But serious faith, ardent devotion, dogmatic discussion, is there a trace of these things?
8688But tell me, what was the idea that miscarried?
8688But tell me, who is it makes the thunder, which I so much dread?
8688But tell me, who is this woman?
8688But then what city shall we be able to stir up trouble in?
8688But though it be true, need he say it?
8688But what are those fellows doing, who are bent all double?
8688But what are you driving at?
8688But what did I?
8688But what do you swear by then?
8688But what does the oracle say?
8688But what else is doing at Megara, eh?
8688But what have you said?
8688But what is in it?
8688But what is my master doing?
8688But what is this?
8688But what is your name then?
8688But what is your purpose?
8688But what use is there in learning what we all know?
8688But what will be done with him?
8688But whatever do you do?
8688But where can this man be found?
8688But where get a white horse from?
8688But where then did you get these pretty chattels?
8688But where was she then, I wonder, all the long time she spent away from us?
8688But where will the poor wretch get his food?
8688But where, where?
8688But who are you that thus repulses me?
8688But who has called together this council of women, pray?
8688But who would make so sorry a deal as to buy you?
8688But why have they left you all alone here?
8688But why start up into the air on chance?
8688But will you buy anything of me, some chickens or some locusts?
8688But will you do it?
8688But you have not yet told me what makes the roll of the thunder?
8688But you, why do n''t you get done with it and die?
8688But your web that''s all being pecked to pieces by the cocks and hens, do n''t you care for that?
8688But, come, will you repay me my money, yes or no?
8688But, great gods, can it be I come too late?
8688But, miserable man, where, where are we to do it?
8688By the iron money of Byzantium?
8688By what cunning shifts, pray?
8688By which gods will you swear?
8688By which gods?
8688Call Myrrhiné hither, quotha?
8688Can I do with them as I wish?
8688Can a man strike out a brilliant thought when drunk?
8688Can a wretched pair of slippers make you forget all that you owe me?
8688Can any good thing come out of_ Lemnos_?
8688Can anybody tell us where Lysistrata is?
8688Can it be one of the gods of Carcinus?
8688Can they eat alone?
8688Can you be of the race of Harmodius?
8688Can you eat chick- pease?
8688Can you match me with a rival?
8688Can you suggest anything?
8688Come now?
8688Come then, what must be done?
8688Come, are you of honest parentage?
8688Come, come, what are you asking for these two crests?
8688Come, how is that, eh?
8688Come, let us see, whose are these oracles?
8688Come, outfence him with some wheelwright slang?
8688Come, what are the male quadrupeds?
8688Come, what are you waiting for?
8688Come, what do you wish to say?
8688Come, what is it?
8688Come, what was the thing I taught you first?
8688Come, what''s the best to give you to eat?
8688Come, who wishes to take the charge of her?
8688Come, will you do it-- yes or no?
8688Could any man''s back and loins stand such a strain?
8688Crates,[73] again, have you done hounding him with your rage and your hisses?
8688Dear boy, will you vote for peace?
8688Demos, do you see this stewed hare which I bring you?
8688Dicaeopolis, will you buy some nice little porkers?
8688Did you hear him?
8688Did you mutter over the thing sufficiently through the night, spout it along the street, recite it to all you met?
8688Did you not put enough strain on your breeches at Salamis?
8688Did you see any other man besides yourself strolling about in heaven?
8688Do n''t I look like a diviner preparing his mystic fire?
8688Do n''t the men grow old too?
8688Do n''t you feel sad and sorry because the fathers of your children are far away from you with the army?
8688Do n''t you know all that a man should know, who is distinguished for his wisdom and inventive daring?
8688Do n''t you know that Zeus has decreed death for him who is surprised exhuming Peace?
8688Do n''t you pity the poor child?
8688Do we not administer the budget of household expenses?
8688Do you beat your own father?
8688Do you consent to my telling the spectators of our troubles?
8688Do you forget who you are?
8688Do you hear that?
8688Do you hear?
8688Do you hesitate?
8688Do you know what the oracle intends to say?
8688Do you know what you had best do?
8688Do you mean those of the beggar Philoctetes?
8688Do you not hear them wheedling you, mighty god?
8688Do you really wish to know the truth of celestial matters?
8688Do you remember the time when silphium[100] was so cheap?
8688Do you see how good it is to learn?
8688Do you see that little door and that little house?
8688Do you see these tiers of people?
8688Do you see this, poor fellow?
8688Do you see what you are doing; is not the female pigeon called the same as the male?
8688Do you see?
8688Do you take me for a fool then?
8688Do you then believe there are gods?
8688Do you think I have been long?
8688Do you think I would sell my rump for a thousand drachmae?
8688Do you turn your nose towards the cesspools?
8688Do you understand that?
8688Do you understand what he says?
8688Do you understand, that, thanks to us, you will be loaded with benefits?
8688Do you want me to perjure myself?
8688Do you want to fight this four- winged Geryon?
8688Do you want to know who I am?
8688Do you wish that this election should even now be a success for you?
8688Does any such being as Zeus exist?
8688Does not the sum borrowed go on growing, growing every month, each day as the time slips by?
8688Does that astonish you?
8688Does the mind attract the sap of the water- cress?
8688Dost thou hesitate and art thou fully steeped in Euripides?
8688Dost thou not see this, that our cities will soon be but empty husks?
8688Even if I have borrowed before witnesses?
8688Exists there a mortal more blest than you?
8688First of all, how is Sophocles?
8688First, what are you doing up there?
8688Firstly, what school did you attend when a child?
8688For ready- money or in wares from these parts?
8688For what purpose?
8688For what sum will you sell them?
8688Friends, do you hear the sacred formula?
8688Go, ninny, blow yourself out with water; do you dare to accuse wine of clouding the reason?
8688Good day, Lysistrata; but pray, why this dark, forbidding face, my dear?
8688Good gods, what am I going to do with this fine ten- minae breast- plate, which is so splendidly made?
8688Has anyone spoken yet?
8688Has he done eating?
8688Has he got one of our children in his house?
8688Has no existence?
8688Has the lash rained an army of its thongs on you and laid your back waste?"
8688Have I robbed you of anything?
8688Have we got back to the days of the festivals of Zeus Polieus,[552] to the Buphonia, to the time of the poet Cecydes[553] and the golden cicadas?
8688Have you a natural gift for speaking?
8688Have you any memory?
8688Have you bored your friends enough with it?
8688Have you decreed some mad expedition?
8688Have you ever seen a beautiful, transparent stone at the druggists, with which you may kindle fire?
8688Have you ever seen chastity of any use to anyone?
8688Have you ever seen it raining without clouds?
8688Have you forgotten how Periclides,[463] your own countryman, sat a suppliant before our altars?
8688Have you got hold of anything?
8688Have you gotten swellings in the groin with your journey?
8688Have you not always shown that blatant impudence, which is the sole strength of our orators?
8688Have you not routed him totally in this duel of abuse?
8688Have you not sometimes seen clouds in the sky like a centaur, a leopard, a wolf or a bull?
8688Have you not understood me then?
8688Have you one word to say for yourselves?
8688Have you reached such a pitch of madness that you believe those bilious fellows?
8688Have you then such a good opinion of yourself?
8688He has a self- important look; is he some diviner?
8688Him?
8688How are things going at Sparta now?
8688How can I obey?
8688How can all these fine distinctions, these subtleties be learned?
8688How can one ever get out of an accusation with such a tone, summon witnesses or touch or convince?
8688How can you make me credit that?
8688How could I express my thoughts with the pomp of Euripides?
8688How else?
8688How else?
8688How hold sway over a body of spectators, who were at the same time judges?
8688How many times round the track is the race for the chariots of war?
8688How now, are you afraid?
8688How now, wretched man?
8688How pray?
8688How satisfy a public made up of so many and such diverse elements, so sharply contrasted by birth, fortune, education, opinion, interest?
8688How shall I act here so that the spectators shall approve my judgment?
8688How shall I manage it?
8688How shall we set about removing these stones?
8688How so, pray?
8688How so?
8688How so?
8688How then did Cleonymus behave in fights?
8688How then, if justice exists, was Zeus not put to death for having put his father in chains?
8688How will that be, pray?
8688How will you be able to learn then?
8688How would you gain by that?
8688How your lips quiver with the famous,"What have you to say now?"
8688How"in front of Pylos"?
8688How, varlet?
8688How, you cursed animal, could the wolf ever unite with the sheep?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688How?
8688I admire your inventive genius; but, where is he?
8688I call you, Myrrhiné, Myrrhiné; will you not come?
8688I may not denounce our enemies?
8688I see another herald running up; what news does he bring me?
8688I shall then be but half alive?
8688I used to linger around the cooks and say to them,"Look, friends, do n''t you see a swallow?
8688I wonder what then would you say, if you knew another of Socrates''contrivances?
8688I?
8688If Zeus strikes at the perjurers, why has he not blasted Simon, Cleonymus and Theorus?
8688If anchovies are so cheap, what need have we of peace?
8688If not, what use is his science to me?
8688If you do not devour me?
8688If you met Amynias, how would you hail him?
8688If you were condemned to pay five talents, how would you manage to quash that verdict?
8688If, when summoned to court, you were in danger of losing your case for want of witnesses, how would you make the conviction fall upon your opponent?
8688In short, where are they then?
8688In the name of all the gods, what is that?
8688In what way does this concern me?
8688In what way, an it please you?
8688In what way, an it please you?
8688In what way?
8688Into Simonides?
8688Is Euripides at home?
8688Is he crazy?
8688Is it a feather?
8688Is it not I who curbed Gryttus,[96] the filthiest of the lewd, by depriving him of his citizen rights?
8688Is it not Straton?
8688Is it not a shame?
8688Is it not a sin and a shame to see them carding and winding the State, these women who have neither art nor part in the burdens of the War?
8688Is it not plain, that''tis Zeus hurling it at the perjurers?
8688Is it not to convict him from the outset?
8688Is it possible, Demos, to love you more than I do?
8688Is it salt that you are bringing?
8688Is it the filthy dress of the lame fellow, Bellerophon?
8688Is it the god Pan''s doing?
8688Is it then a smell like a soldier''s knapsack?
8688Is it to cremate yourself?
8688Is it true, what they tell us, that men are turned into stars after death?
8688Is it true?
8688Is that a little sow, or not?
8688Is that not enough?
8688Is that you, master?
8688Is the moralist to despair and throw away his pen, because in so many cases his voice finds no echo?
8688Is there anything worse than to have such a character?
8688Is there then a day of the old and the new?
8688Is this not a scandal?
8688Is this not sufficient to drive one to hang oneself?
8688Is"pour again"in the oracle?
8688Knights, are you helping them?
8688LYSISTRATA How so-- not the same thing?
8688Lacedaemon?
8688Let me bethink me, what is the most heroic?
8688Let me see of what value to me have been these few pleasures?
8688Let us see then, what is there in yours?
8688Let us see, who of you is steady enough to be trusted by the Senate with the care of this charming wench?
8688Listen to you?
8688Lysistrata, say, what oath are we to swear?
8688MAGISTRATE You?
8688Master, have you got garlic in your fist, I wonder?
8688Mortal, what do you want with me?
8688Must I have him certificated for lunacy, or must I order his coffin?
8688Must I leave my wool to spoil then?
8688Must you have recourse to such jackanapes''tricks to supplant me?
8688My father?
8688My father?
8688Myrrhiné, my little darling Myrrhiné, what are you saying?
8688No one?
8688Nor doubtless to Enyalius?
8688Nothing is more pleasing, when the rain is sprouting our sowings, than to chat with some friend, saying,"Tell me, Comarchides, what shall we do?
8688Now tell me, would not the women have done best to come?
8688Now what will you say, if I beat you even on this point?
8688Now, I am bound to start for Salamis; will you make it convenient to go up to- night to make her fastening secure?"
8688Now, what tatters_ does_ he want?
8688Now, where is the gentle goddess Peace?
8688Now, why not first put down our loads here, then take a vine- branch, light it at the brazier and hurl it at the gate by way of battering- ram?
8688Now, why should he do that?
8688Of Phoenix, the blind man?
8688Of the Odomanti?
8688Of the dactyl?
8688Of what King?
8688Of what greedy fist?
8688Of which reasonings?
8688Of which statue?
8688Officer, where are you got to?
8688Oh, Triptolemus and Ceres, do ye thus forsake your own blood?
8688Oh, indeed, a''skytalé,''is it?
8688Oh, too credulous son of Cecrops,[116] do you accept that as a glorious exploit?
8688On what day?
8688On what terms?
8688Once more, will you not let me speak?
8688Our advocates, what are they?
8688Over what?
8688Own myself vanquished on a point like this?
8688Phaleric anchovies, pottery?
8688Poor little lad(_ addressing his penis_), how am I to give you what you want so badly?
8688Pots of green- stuff[354] as we do to poor Hermes-- and even he thinks the fare but mean?
8688Pray, what for?
8688Prithee, tell me, what is it?
8688Prytanes, will you let me be treated in this manner, in my own country and by barbarians?
8688Rash reprobate, what do you propose doing?
8688Really and truly?
8688Refrain from what?
8688Say on, what are your orders?
8688Say, where shall I find the Senate and the Prytanes?
8688Shall I pursue them at law or shall I...?
8688Shall I really ever see such happiness?
8688Shall I repeat the words?
8688Shall I tell you what has happened to you?
8688Shall not the air, which is boundless, produce these mighty claps of thunder?
8688Shall we wager and submit the matter to Lamachus, which of the two is the best to eat, a locust or a thrush?
8688Shameless as you may be, will you dare to show your face to the spectators?
8688She asks, what will be the result of such a choice of the city?
8688So Zeus, it seems, has no existence, and''tis the Whirlwind that reigns in his stead?
8688So this is why you have lost your cloak?
8688So you would pay ten minae[382] for a night- stool?
8688So, you bite your lips, and shake your heads, eh?
8688Socrates asked Chaerephon,"How many times the length of its legs does a flea jump?"
8688Socrates, would you sacrifice me, like Athamas?
8688Speak out, Laconians, what is it brings you here?
8688Speak, Marilades, you have grey hair; well then, have you ever been entrusted with a mission?
8688Stop, stay the hateful strife, be reconciled; what hinders you?
8688Strymodorus, who would ever have thought it?
8688Suppose I let fly a good kick at you?
8688Suppose one of us were to break a stick across their backs, eh?
8688Suppose that a Lacedaemonian had seized a little Seriphian[216] dog on any pretext and had sold it, would you have endured it quietly?
8688Take back, take back your viands; for a thousand drachmae I would not give a drop of peace; but who are you, pray?
8688Tell me, Hermes, my master, do you think it would hurt me to fuck her a little, after so long an abstinence?
8688Tell me, Socrates, I pray you, who are these women, whose language is so solemn; can they be demigoddesses?
8688Tell me, if I prove thoroughly attentive and learn with zeal, which of your disciples shall I resemble, do you think?
8688Tell me, is it not right, that in turn I should beat you for your good?
8688Tell me, my dear, what are your feelings with regard to them?
8688Tell me, of all the sons of Zeus, who had the stoutest heart, who performed the most doughty deeds?
8688Tell me, pray, what is that?
8688Tell me, was it on the market- place or near the gates that you sold your sausages?
8688Tell me, what is War preparing against us?
8688Tell me, what is the Paphlagonian doing now?
8688Tell me, what is this?
8688Tell me, you little good- for- nothing, are you singing that for your father?
8688Tell us, pray; what, not a word?
8688Tell us, tell us, what is it?
8688That dearest darling?
8688That is what you assuredly would have done, and would not Telephus have done the same?
8688The measures, the rhythms or the verses?
8688The same for both?
8688Then I am to snap up wisdom much as a dog snaps up a morsel?
8688Then are we actually to believe that the necessity of his profession as a comic poet alone drove him into the faction of the malcontents?
8688Then money is the cause of the War?
8688Then trough is of the same gender as Cleonymus?
8688Then what should I sing?
8688Then what should be done?
8688Then what_ do_ you want to know?
8688Then who is that star I see over yonder?
8688Then why do you turn away like that, and hold your cloak out from your body?
8688Then why this helmet, pray?
8688These women, have they made din enough, I wonder, with their tambourines?
8688These women, these enemies of Euripides and all the gods, shall I do nothing to hinder their inordinate insolence?
8688Those in which I rigged out Aeneus[209] on the stage, that unhappy, miserable old man?
8688Thus, poor fool, the sea, that receives the rivers, never grows, and yet you would have your money grow?
8688Thus, when I throw forth some philosophical thought anent things celestial, you will seize it in its very flight?
8688To what part of the earth?
8688To whom are you sacrificing?
8688To whom?
8688Trygaeus, where is Trygaeus?
8688Two dealers, eh?
8688Very well then, but how am I going to descend?
8688Was I then so stupid and such a dotard?
8688Was it hot?
8688Was not the legislator who carried this law a man like you and me?
8688We must refrain from the male organ altogether.... Nay, why do you turn your backs on me?
8688Well then, Demos, say now, who has treated you best, you and your stomach?
8688Well then, what must we do now?
8688Well, how are things at Megara?
8688Well, what is it you have there then?
8688Well, what oath shall we take then?
8688Well, what then?
8688Well, what?
8688Well?
8688Well?
8688Well?
8688Were you not yourself in those days quite red in the gills with farting?
8688What about?
8688What ails you?
8688What allies, I should like to know?
8688What am I to do with them?
8688What am I up to?
8688What are these?
8688What are they like then?
8688What are they?
8688What are you laughing at?
8688What are you saying now?
8688What are you then?
8688What are you up to?
8688What are you up to?
8688What can I do in the matter?
8688What can your drinking do to help us?
8688What connection is there between Erectheus, the jays and the dog?
8688What connection is there between a galley and a dog- fox?
8688What connection?
8688What could be better?
8688What did he contrive, to secure you some supper?
8688What do I bid?
8688What do the hooked claws mean?
8688What do they call themselves?
8688What do they like most?
8688What do want crying this gait?
8688What do you bid for them?
8688What do you lack more?
8688What do you mean?
8688What do you prefer?
8688What do you propose to do then, pray?
8688What do you purport doing?
8688What do you say?
8688What do you see?
8688What do you think he will do?
8688What do you think they resemble?
8688What do you want of me?
8688What do you want?
8688What does he mean by that?
8688What does he say?
8688What does it mean?
8688What does it say?
8688What does the beetle mean?"
8688What does the god mean, then?
8688What else?
8688What fate befell Magnes,[67] when his hair went white?
8688What fitter theme for our Muse, at the close as at the beginning of his work, than this, to sing the hero who drives his swift steeds down the arena?
8688What for?
8688What for?
8688What for?
8688What for?
8688What gives him such audacity?
8688What good indeed?
8688What grounds have you for condemning hot baths?
8688What harm have I done you?
8688What has happened to you?
8688What has happened to you?
8688What has that to do with the old day and the new?
8688What have we here?
8688What have you to say, then?
8688What ill has Tlepolemus done you?
8688What is Phidippides going to say?
8688What is going to happen, friends?
8688What is his dress like, what his manner?
8688What is it I owe?
8688What is it all about?
8688What is it then?
8688What is it then?
8688What is it you fear then?
8688What is it, old greybeard?
8688What is it?
8688What is it?
8688What is it?
8688What is it?
8688What is it?
8688What is that used for?
8688What is that?
8688What is the matter with you, father, that you groan and turn about the whole night through?
8688What is the matter?
8688What is the matter?
8688What is the matter?
8688What is the most important business you wish to inform us about?
8688What is the reason of it all?
8688What is the thunder then?
8688What is there in that to make you laugh?
8688What is there in that to surprise you?
8688What is there then?
8688What is this I see, ye wretched old men?
8688What is this fable you are telling me?
8688What is this?
8688What is to be done with this trumpet, for which I gave sixty drachmae the other day?
8688What is wheat selling at?
8688What is your next bidding?
8688What kind of animal is interest?
8688What makes you so bold as to dare to speak to my face?
8688What matters that I was born a woman, if I can cure your misfortunes?
8688What mean you by these silly tales?
8688What means this Chalcidian cup?
8688What medimni?
8688What money?
8688What oath?
8688What oracle ordered you to burn these joints of mutton in honour of the gods?
8688What other news of Megara?
8688What other oath do you prefer?
8688What other victim do you prefer then?
8688What plague have we here?
8688What price then is paid for forage by Boeotians?
8688What proof have you?
8688What rags do you prefer?
8688What rampart, my dear man?
8688What reason have they for treating us so?
8688What reason have you for thus dallying at the door?
8688What sacrifice is this?
8688What say you, all here present?
8688What shall we do to her?
8688What shall we do to her?
8688What then will become of Clisthenes and of Strato?
8688What then will you say when you see the thrushes roasting?
8688What then?
8688What then?
8688What think you?
8688What use calling upon Zeus?
8688What was it then?
8688What was the first thing?
8688What was your device?
8688What we all want, is to be abed with our wives; how should our allies fail to second our project?
8688What were they doing up there?
8688What will become of me?
8688What will you give?
8688What will you offer then?
8688What words strike my ear?
8688What would Marpsias reply to this?
8688What would you have?
8688What''s it all about?
8688What''s that to you?
8688What''s that you say?
8688What, I?
8688What, a man?
8688What?
8688What?
8688What?
8688What?
8688What?
8688What_ do_ you bring then?
8688Whatever do you want such a thing as that for?
8688When his trouble first began to seize him, he said to himself,"By what means could I go straight to Zeus?"
8688Whence comes this cry of battle?
8688Whence has sprung this accursed swarm of Cheris[246] fellows which comes assailing my door?
8688Where are you going?
8688Where are you running to?
8688Where are you, Strepsiades?
8688Where can another seller be found, is there ever a one left?
8688Where has he gone to then?
8688Where have you ever seen cold baths called''Baths of Heracles''?
8688Where is Amphitheus?
8688Where is Cynalopex?
8688Where is he, this unknown foe?
8688Where is he?
8688Where is my officer?
8688Where is my other officer?
8688Where is our Usheress?
8688Where is the king of the feast?
8688Where is the man who demands money?
8688Where is the table?
8688Where?
8688Where?
8688Wherein will that profit me?
8688Which science of all those you have never been taught, do you wish to learn first?
8688Which would you prefer?
8688Which?
8688Who am I?
8688Who are all my creditors?
8688Who are they?
8688Who are you then?
8688Who are you?
8688Who are you?
8688Who are you?
8688Who asks to speak?
8688Who causes the rain to fall?
8688Who dares do this thing?
8688Who ever saw an oxen baked in an oven?
8688Who has mutilated their tools like this?
8688Who himself?
8688Who is here?
8688Who is it?
8688Who is this that dares to pass our lines?
8688Who is this?
8688Who is to speak first?
8688Who is your father then?
8688Who rules now in the rostrum?
8688Who was her greatest foe here?
8688Who was it then?
8688Who will be my ally?
8688Who will get us out of this mess?
8688Who''s there?
8688Whose are these goods?
8688Why a chaplet?
8688Why afflict Lysistratus with our satires on his poverty,[134] and Thumantis,[135] who has not so much as a lodging?
8688Why did you not say so then, instead of egging on a poor ignorant old man?
8688Why do you call me?
8688Why do you come?
8688Why do you embrace me?
8688Why do you not hold yourself worthy?
8688Why does not the work advance then?
8688Why give me such pain and suffering, and yourself into the bargain?
8688Why not leave me to wash my tripe and to sell my sausages instead of making game of me?
8688Why not saddle Pegasus?
8688Why not?
8688Why not?
8688Why should you call me?
8688Why so?
8688Why then did you light such a guzzling lamp?
8688Why then do the magistrates have the deposits paid on the last of the month and not the next day?
8688Why then drivel as if you had fallen from an ass?
8688Why these cries?
8688Why these pale, sad looks?
8688Why, certainly I have, but what then?
8688Why, is there not the harbour of Cantharos at the Piraeus?
8688Why, then, does the oracle not say dog instead of dog- fox?
8688Why, what are you astonished at?
8688Why, what has happened?
8688Why, where am I likely to be going across the sky, if it be not to visit Zeus?
8688Why, where are they?
8688Why, where has she gone to then?
8688Why?
8688Will anything that it behoves a wise man to know escape you?
8688Will no one open?
8688Will the Great King send us gold?
8688Will the rhythms supply me with food?
8688Will they eat them?
8688Will ye all take this oath?
8688Will you dare to swear by the gods that you owe me nothing?
8688Will you never stop fooling the Athenians?
8688Will you not bury that right away and pile a great heap of earth upon it and plant wild thyme therein and pour perfumes on it?
8688Will you not even now let the strangers alone?
8688Will you not let me speak?
8688Will you obey me ever so little?
8688With good wine, no doubt?
8688With what end in view have they seized the citadel of Cranaus,[425] the sacred shrine that is raised upon the inaccessible rock of the Acropolis?
8688Women, children, have you not heard?
8688Would you deny the debt on that account?
8688Would you like me to scent you?
8688Yes, indeed, I see him; but who is it?
8688You are but a mendicant and you dare to use language of this sort?
8688You believe so?
8688You do not reckon them masculine?
8688You have become a lion and I never knew a thing about it?
8688You have brought back nothing?
8688You have thrown it?
8688You love me?
8688You really want to know?
8688You really will not, Acharnians?
8688You say no, do you not?
8688You will not give me any meat?
8688You will not hear me?
8688You will not repay?
8688You will say that Sparta was wrong, but what should she have done?
8688You, Lysistrata, you who are leader of our glorious enterprise, why do I see you coming towards me with so gloomy an air?
8688You?
8688Your country?
8688Your father?
8688Your mind is on drink intent?
8688Your name?
8688Zeus, what art thou going to do for our people?
8688Zeus,"he cries,"what are thy intentions?
8688[ 177] Will you give me back my garlic?
8688[ 208] And why dress in these miserable tragic rags?
8688[ 248] What do you bring?
8688[ 367] What is he going to tell us?
8688[ 409] Now, what are you staring at, pray?
8688[ 424] But why do we stand here with arms crossed?
8688[ 42] Did you drink enough water to inspire you?
8688[ 490] But why do they look so fixedly on the ground?
8688[ 494] And where is Lacedaemon?
8688[ 558] And yet who was braver than he?
8688[ 80] Are you not rowing?"
8688_ Her_?
8688_ You_ do?
8688a Megarian?
8688a braggart''s?
8688about what?
8688accursed harlot, what do you mean to do here with your water?
8688am I not free- born too?
8688and furthermore, had she a friend who exerted himself to put an end to the fighting?
8688and how was I then?
8688and the safety of the city?
8688and yet you have not left off white?
8688are such exaggerations to be borne?
8688are we to let ourselves be bested by a mob of women?
8688are you asleep?
8688are you blaming us for not having exposed you according to custom?
8688are you for running away?
8688are you reflecting?
8688bewept Adonis enough upon their terraces?
8688but what names do you want me to give them?
8688but what other measures do you wish to take?
8688but what shall I be, when you see me presently dressed for the wedding?
8688can it be right to beat a father?
8688citizens of Argos, do you hear what he says?
8688do n''t shout, I beg you, dear little Hermes.... And what are you doing, comrades?
8688do n''t you see, little fool, that then twice the food would be wanted?
8688do you dare to jeer me?
8688do you hear him?
8688do you love me?
8688do you not at every raid grub up the ground with your pikes to pull out every single head?
8688do you not heed the herald?
8688do you see that armourer yonder coming with a wry face?
8688do you take away your son or do you wish me to teach him how to speak?
8688do you want to make yourself vomit with this feather?
8688do you wipe with both hands?
8688does any of you recognize him?
8688does that not please you?
8688fellow, what countryman are you?
8688great baboon, with such a beard do you seek to play the eunuch to us?
8688has it not done me ills enough?
8688how am I to pay the wages of my young foxes?
8688how did you come here?
8688how get the better of these ferocious creatures?
8688how shall I give tongue to my joy and sufficiently praise you?
8688how?
8688if I say_ him_, do I make the_ trough_ masculine?
8688in the name of the gods, are you purposing to assault me then?
8688in the name of the gods, what possesses you?
8688is it not so?
8688is our Father, Zeus, the Olympian, not a god?
8688is that not a sow then?
8688looking for a tavern, I suppose, eh?
8688must I really and truly die?
8688must your body be free of blows, and not mine?
8688my dears, methinks I see fire and smoke; can it be a conflagration?
8688my good friend, did you have a good journey?
8688my poor fellow, what is your condition?
8688now what countrywomen may they be?
8688of the earth, did you say?
8688of what country, then?
8688shall the men be underneath?
8688shall we stop their cackle?
8688the children are to weep and the fathers go free?
8688to what god are you offering it?
8688torch of sacred Athens, saviour of the Islands, what good tidings are we to celebrate by letting the blood of the victims flow in our market- places?
8688twelve minae to Pasias?
8688venerated goddess, who givest us our grapes, where am I to find the ten- thousand- gallon words[306] wherewith to greet thee?
8688was this the way you robbed me?
8688what Zeus?
8688what are you doing?
8688what are you doing?
8688what are you drawing there?
8688what are you going to say?
8688what are you proposing to do?
8688what bird''s?
8688what can be done?
8688what country are those animals from?
8688what debt comes next, after that of Pasias?
8688what do those cries mean?
8688what do you call it?
8688what do you reckon to sing?
8688what does that matter to merry companions in their cups?
8688what has happened to you?
8688what have you got there so hard?
8688what is this I hear?
8688what is to be done?
8688what is to become of us, wretched mortals that we are?
8688what kind of bird is this?
8688what matter of that?
8688what says the oracle?
8688what use of words?
8688what will become of me?
8688what would you do?
8688what''s that you say?
8688where did you discover them, pray?
8688where is the doorkeeper?
8688where must I bring my aid?
8688where must I sow dread?
8688where shall I find it?
8688whither away so fast?
8688who is burning down our house?
8688who is this man, crowned with laurel, who is coming to me?
8688who is this whining fellow?
8688who wants me to uncase my dreadful Gorgon''s head?
8688who will buy them?
8688why art thou silent?
8688why do you cry so?
8688why should I dally thus instead of rapping at the door?
8688why these tears?
8688will daylight never come?
8688will these nights never end?
8688will you hear them squeal?
8688will you kill this coal- basket, my beloved comrade?
8688wo n''t the crests go any more, friend?
8688wo n''t you come back home?
8688would you mock me?
8688would you not say him for Cleonymus?
8688you declare war against birds?
8688you down there, what are you after now?
8688you fellow on the roof, what are you doing up there?
8688you have the nature of a dog and you dare to fight a cynecephalus?
8688you start, do you?
8688you turn away your face?
8688you would leave me, you would vanish into the sky, you would go to the crows?
8688your name?
14484''Tis hard that I, far- toiling voyager, Crossed by some evil wind, Can not the haven find, Nor catch his form that flies me, where?
14484(_ to_ ANTIGONE) And thou,--no prating talk, but briefly tell, Knew''st thou our edict that forbade this thing?
14484--''Faithfulness to whom?''
14484... II 2 The cause then of my cry Was coming all too nigh:( Doth the clear nightingale lament for nought?)
144841 Where is he?
14484A shepherd wast thou, and a wandering hind?
14484A. Toil upon toil brings toil, And what save trouble have I?
14484Above there, or below?
14484Aias, dear brother, comfort of mine eye, Hast thou then done even as the rumour holds?
14484Aias, my lord, what act is in thy mind?
14484Alas, shalt thou be seen Graced with mine arms amongst Achaean men?
14484Alas, what shall I say to him?
14484Am I a fool, or do I truly hear Lament new- rising from our master''s home?
14484Am I again deceived?
14484Am I not vile?
14484Am I permitted?
14484Am I ruled by Thebes?
14484Am I the man to spurn at Heaven''s command?
14484Am I to speak?
14484Am I undone?
14484Among whom?
14484And Aias was thy foeman?
14484And I, Shall I bide here till thou com''st forth?
14484And Nestor, my old friend, good aged man, Is he yet living?
14484And are thine eyes 2 Sightless?
14484And art thou bent on truth in the reply?
14484And art thou not ashamed, acting alone?
14484And could a mother''s heart be steeled to this?
14484And did they certainly report him dead?
14484And did this prophet then profess his art?
14484And finds the sufferer now some pause of woe?
14484And hadst thou ever hoped the Gods would care For mine affliction, and restore my life?
14484And hadst thou there acquaintance of this man?
14484And hath Creon sent, Pitying my sorrows, mine own children to me Whom most I love?
14484And have they so determined on my life?
14484And have ye dared to give Mine arms to some man else, unknown to me?''
14484And how is he not here, if all be well?
14484And how was she detected, caught, and taken?
14484And in what modern writing is more of the wisdom of life condensed than in the History of Thucydides?
14484And is he now at hand within the house?
14484And is he still alive for me to see?
14484And is not lying shameful to thy soul?
14484And is there none to succour or prevent?
14484And is this in act?
14484And is this thine intent?
14484And know''st thou not whom thou behold''st in me, Young boy?
14484And may one touch and handle it, and gaze With reverence, as on a thing from Heaven?
14484And now The General''s proclamation of to- day-- Hast thou not heard?--Art thou so slow to hear When harm from foes threatens the souls we love?
14484And now This gory venom blackly spreading bane From Nessus''angry wound, must it not cause The death of Heracles?
14484And now why vaunt the deeds that won the day, When these dear maids will tell them in thine ear?
14484And shall not men be taught the temperate will?
14484And shar''st with her dominion of this realm?
14484And since the event how much of time hath flown?
14484And they, Thy brethren, what of them?
14484And thou, poor helpless crone, didst see this done?
14484And to what Power thus consecrate?
14484And was I then, By mine own edict branded thus, to look On Theban faces with unaltered eye?
14484And was there none, no fellow traveller, To see, and tell the tale, and help our search?
14484And were the eyes and spirit not distraught, When the tongue uttered this to ruin me?
14484And what desire or quest hath brought thee hither?
14484And what hast thou determined for her death?
14484And what hath brought thee, old Tirésias, now?
14484And what was Atreus, thine own father?
14484And when I have gotten this unpolluted draught?
14484And when leaf- shadowed Earth has drunk of this, What follows?
14484And when the father saw him, With loud and dreadful clamour bursting in He went to him and called him piteously:''What deed is this, unhappy youth?
14484And when they banished me, stood''st firm to shield me, What news, Ismene, bring''st thou to thy sire To day?
14484And where didst thou come near him and stand by?
14484And where didst thou inhabit with thy flock?
14484And where is he who rules this country, sirs?
14484And where is his poor body''s resting- place?
14484And where, then, is the promise thou hast given?
14484And wherefore hast thou darted forth?
14484And whither must we go?
14484And who That saw thee hurrying forth to certain death Would not bewail thee, brother?
14484And who is he that I should say him nay?
14484And who the slain?
14484And who will carry that?
14484And who will marry you?
14484And who would dare reject his proffered good?
14484And who, by Heaven, are they?
14484And wilt thou gather the appointed wood?
14484And wilt thou honour such a pestilent corse?
14484And wilt thou sever her from thine own son?
14484And wilt thou then Sail to befriend them, pressing me in aid?
14484And wouldst thou have us gentle to such friends?
14484And yet What am I asking?
14484Another gave me, then?
14484Antigone, child of the old blind sire, What land is here, what people?
14484Are my woes lessening?
14484Are none Mourning for loss of fathers but yourself?
14484Are they set forth To please the Atridae, Phoenix and the rest?
14484Are ye come to add Some monster evil to my mountainous woe?
14484Are ye the men to tell me where to find The mansion of the sovereign Oedipus?
14484Art not ashamed To look on him that sued to thee for shelter?
14484Art not more tender of the life thou hast?
14484Art silent?
14484Art thou Orestes?
14484Art thou he indeed, That didst preserve Orestes and myself From many sorrows?
14484Art thou he?
14484Art thou mad, unhappy one, to laugh Over thine own calamity and mine?
14484Art thou silent?
14484Art thou then so resolved, O brother mine?
14484Art thou to hear it?
14484Art thou to probe the seat of mine annoy?
14484Art thou, too, wroth with the all- pestilent sons Of Atreus?
14484As fearing what reverse Prophetically told?
14484At home, afield, or on some foreign soil?
14484Because you missed me?
14484Both may be equal yonder; who can tell?
14484But I fain would learn What wrong is that you speak of?
14484But I would first Learn from thee who of men hath sent thee forth?
14484But for our errand to- day Behoves thee, master, to say Where is the hearth of his home; Or where even now doth he roam?
14484But grant thy speech were sooth, and all were done In aid of Menelaüs; for this cause Hadst thou the right to slay him?
14484But have my miseries a measure?
14484But how Can this be lawful?
14484But how shall I find matters there within?
14484But how, if they should save thee afterward?
14484But how?
14484But now to hear of thee, who more distressed?
14484But of mortals here That soothsayers are more inspired than I What certain proof is given?
14484But resolve me this: Hast dyed thy falchion deep in Argive blood?
14484But tell Where is the pain- worn wight himself abroad?
14484But tell me first what height Had Laius, and what grace of manly prime?
14484But tell me what request Or what intelligence thou bring''st with thee?
14484But the tale?
14484But they, where are they?
14484But what can I herein Avail to do or undo?
14484But what more fatal than the lapse of rule?
14484But when we ask,''Righteousness in what relation?''
14484But where did Laius meet this violent end?
14484But where is Aias to receive my word?
14484But where is Teucer?
14484But wherefore ask?
14484But wherefore on the flock this violent raid?
14484But who can hide evil that courts the day?
14484But who could bear to see thee in this mind?
14484But who that hears the deep oracular sound Of his dark words, will dare to follow thee?
14484But who that is a woman could endure To dwell with her, both married to one man?
14484But why come hither?
14484But why desire it so?
14484But why renew thy rage?
14484But why these words?
14484But, I may presume, Ye held an inquisition for the dead?
14484By heaven I pray thee, did my father do this thing, Or was''t my mother?
14484By illness coming o''er him, or by guile?
14484By what certain sign?
14484By whom?
14484Came he near them?
14484Came this device from Creon or thyself?
14484Can aught be still more hateful to be seen?
14484Can he be brought again immediately?
14484Can hour outlasting hour make less or more Of death?
14484Can it be poor Electra?
14484Can it be so, my son, that thou art brought By mad distemperature against thy sire, On hearing of the irrevocable doom Passed on thy promised bride?
14484Can it be well To pour forgetfulness upon the dead?
14484Can it be, the offence of my disease Hath moved thee not to take me now on board?
14484Can the eye so far deceive?
14484Can this be famed Electra I behold?
14484Can this be possible?
14484Can this be truth I utter?
14484Can ye behold this done And tamely hide your all- avenging fire?
14484Can you describe him?
14484Canst thou not Hear, and refuse to do what thou mislikest?
14484Canst thou not be still?
14484Child, art thou here?
14484Child, hast thou heard what holy oracles He left with me, touching that very land?
14484Child, what shall I do?
14484Child, wherefore art thou come?
14484Clear of this mischief, mean''st thou?
14484Come, tell it o''er again,--said you ye brought My brother bound to aid you with his power?
14484Corinthian friend, I first appeal to you: Was''t he you spake of?
14484Could human thought have prophesied My name would thus give echo to mine ill?
14484Could this be ventured by a woman''s hand?
14484Dark instrument Of ever- hateful guile!--What hast thou done?
14484Dates his valour from to day?
14484Daughter Antigone, what is it?
14484Daughter, what is coming?
14484Daughter, what must I think, or do?
14484Daunted by what fear Stayed ye me sacrificing to the God[2] Who guards this deme Colonos?
14484Dead, or at rest in sleep?
14484Dear friends, kind women of true Argive breed, Say, who can timely counsel give Or word of comfort suited to my need?
14484Dear friends, what will ye do?
14484Dear is that shore to me, dear is thy father O ancient Lycomedes''foster- child, Whence cam''st thou hither?
14484Dear lady, by the Gods, Who is the stranger?
14484Dear only saviour of our father''s house, How earnest thou hither?
14484Dear son, whose voice disturbs us?
14484Derived from Labdacus?
14484Did I not tell thee so, long since?
14484Did I not tell you this would come?
14484Did fear of this make thee so long an exile?
14484Did my sons hear?
14484Did she give it thee?
14484Did ye not hear it, friends?
14484Did you not on oath Proclaim your captive for your master''s bride?
14484Did you not say That she, on whom you look with ignorant eye, Was Iolè, the daughter of the King, Committed to your charge?
14484Didst thou, then, recklessly aspire To brave kings''laws, and now art brought In madness of transgression caught?
14484Do I hear Odysseus?
14484Do I see thee with the marvellous bow?
14484Do I talk idly, or is this the truth?
14484Dost hear, Woe- burdened wanderer?
14484Dost not perceive?
14484Dost thou confess to have done this, or deny it?
14484Dost thou find no comfort in my news?
14484Dost thou inquire of him?
14484Dost thou see?
14484Doth he yet live?
14484Doth the mind smart withal, or only the ear?
14484Doth this delight them, or how went the talk?
14484Doth this not argue an insensate sire?
14484Ended he with peace divine?
14484Even here?
14484Farther?
14484Fate- wearied Oedipus?
14484Fate-- not thou-- hath sent My sire and mother to the home of death What wealth have I to comfort me for thee?
14484Fear''st thou not the Achaeans in this act?
14484Feel you not the justice of my speech?
14484Find ye no merit there?
14484First consider one thing well: Who would choose rule accompanied with fear Before safe slumbers with an equal sway?
14484First of thy brother I beseech thee tell, How deem''st thou?
14484Following what service?
14484For if at home I foster rebels, how much more abroad?
14484For some one,--but first tell me, whispering low Whate''er thou speakest,--who is this I see?
14484For tell me, or be patient till I show, What should I gain by ceasing this my moan?
14484For what end, daughter?
14484For what transgression of Heaven''s ordinance?
14484For when the eyes have looked their last How should sore labour vex again?
14484For wherefore should the Centaur, for what end, Show kindness to the cause for whom he died?
14484For whither wandering shall we find Hard livelihood, by land or over sea?
14484For who Can make the accomplished fact as things undone?
14484For whom could he himself be sailing forth?
14484For whom to spend those gifts?
14484Friendly, to hand me over to my foes?
14484From both?
14484From what didst thou release me or relieve?
14484From whom hast thou heard this?
14484Gain for the sons of Atreus, or for me?
14484Gave you this man the child of whom he asks you?
14484Had he scant following, or, as princes use, Full numbers of a well- appointed train?
14484Had he some cause for fear?
14484Had not he, Menelaüs, children twain, begotten of her Whom to reclaim that army sailed to Troy?
14484Hadst thou a share in that adventurous toil?
14484Hadst thou the face To bring thy boldness near my palace- roof, Proved as thou art to have contrived my death And laid thy robber hands upon my state?
14484Hast caught my drift?
14484Hast not even heard my name, Nor echoing rumour of my ruinous woe?
14484Hast thou come, daughter?
14484Hast thou had dealings with him?
14484Hast thou let him go?
14484Hast thou my child?
14484Hast thou my sister for thine honoured queen?
14484Hast thou thy wits, and knowest thou what thou sayest?
14484Hath Phoebus so pronounced my destiny?
14484Hath Trachis a magician of such might?
14484Hath he borne that?
14484Hath it not before oppressed thee?
14484Hath mortal head Conceived a wickedness so bold?
14484Hath thy trouble come?
14484Have Atreus''sons felt thy victorious might?
14484Have I not set my foot as firm and far?
14484Have my arms caught thee?
14484Have none of her companions breathed her name?
14484Have they a lord, or sways the people''s voice?
14484Have they given thee cause to grieve?
14484Have we not Teucer, Skilled in this mystery?
14484Have you no shame, to stir up private broils In such a time as this?
14484Hear ye his words?
14484Hear ye not Aias there, How sharp the cry that shrills from him?
14484Here, or there?
14484His loves ere now Were they not manifold?
14484His own, or Creon''s?
14484Hold fast continually, for who hath seen Zeus so forgetful of his own?
14484Hold, till thou first hast made me clearly know, Is Peleus''offspring dead?
14484How came it, when the minstrel- hound was here, This folk had no deliverance through thy word?
14484How came she in thy charge?
14484How can I do it, when my mother''s death And thy sad state sprang solely from this girl?
14484How can I gainsay what I see?
14484How can I prove a rebel to his mind Who thus exhorts me with affectionate heart?
14484How can he bear it still?
14484How can he range, Whose limb drags heavy with an ancient harm?
14484How can his providence forsake his son?
14484How can it heal to burn thee on the pyre?
14484How can my father be no more to me Than who is nothing?
14484How can one like me Desire of thee to touch an outlawed man, On whose dark life all stains of sin and woe Are fixed indelibly?
14484How canst thou clear that sin?
14484How caused?
14484How could he live, whose life was thus consumed with moan?
14484How could her single thought Contrive the accomplishment of death on death?
14484How could that furrowing of thy father''s field Year after year continue unrevealed?
14484How couldst thou bear Thus to put out thine eyes?
14484How didst thou set forth?
14484How do I know this?
14484How dost thou know it?
14484How durst thou then transgress the published law?
14484How else, when neither war, nor the wide sea Encountered him, but viewless realms enwrapt him, Wafted away to some mysterious doom?
14484How else, when the end Of stormy sickness brings no cheering ray?
14484How first began the assault of misery?
14484How groundless, if I am my parents''child?
14484How if a princess, offspring of their King?
14484How if thy thought be vain?
14484How is it with you, brother?
14484How mean''st thou by that word?
14484How mean''st thou?
14484How must one look in speaking such a word?
14484How now, my son?
14484How righteous, to release what thou hast ta''en By my device?
14484How say you?
14484How say you?
14484How say you?
14484How say''st thou?
14484How shall I dare to front my father''s eye?
14484How shall I speak the dreadful word?
14484How shall ye live when ye have heard?
14484How should I know him whom I ne''er Set eye on?
14484How should I leave this substance for that show?
14484How should this pain me, in pretence being dead, Really to save myself and win renown?
14484How should this plead for pardon?
14484How so?
14484How so?
14484How then can I desire to be a king, When masterdom is mine without annoy?
14484How then should he escape me?
14484How then should they require thee to go near, And yet dwell separate?
14484How then?
14484How to shield me, how to aid me?
14484How was it?
14484How was that?
14484How wert thou so long deceived?
14484How will he once endure to look on me, Denuded of the prize of high renown, Whose coronal stood sparkling on his brow?
14484How with the wise wilt thou care?
14484How, dear youth?
14484How, if his eyes be not transformed or lost?
14484How, stranger?
14484How, then, friends, Can I be moderate, or feel the touch Of holy resignation?
14484How, then?
14484How, when the powers of will and thought are past, Should life be any more enthralled to pain?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484How?
14484I 1 When shall arise our exile''s latest sun?
14484I bid thee show, What journey is Alcmena''s child pursuing?
14484I broke in with my word:''Aias, what now?
14484I call thee daily-- wilt thou never come?
14484I may not look on high, Nor to the tribe of momentary men.-- Oh, whither, then, Should it avail to fly?
14484I pray thee, speak''st thou thus to anger me?
14484I, who in this thy coming have beheld Thee dead and living?
14484II 1 Who more acquainted with fierce misery, Assaulted by disasters manifest, Than thou in this thy day of agony?
14484III 2 Doth not thy sense enlighten thee to see How recklessly Even now thou winnest undeservèd woe?
14484If choice were given you, would you rather choose Hurting your friends, yourself to feel delight, Or share with them in one commingled pain?
14484If honour to such lives be given, What needs our choir to hymn the power of Heaven?
14484If this you do Be noble, why must darkness hide the deed?
14484If thou fearest, Thou hast no cause-- for doubtfulness is pain, But to know all, what harm?
14484If thou wert gone, what were my life to me?
14484Ill boding harbinger of woe, what word Have thy lips uttered?
14484In Greece, or in some barbarous country?
14484In vain?
14484Insolent, art thou here?
14484Into what region are these wavering sounds Wafted on aimless wings?
14484Is all forlorn?
14484Is ancient Polybus not still in power?
14484Is death thy destination for them both?
14484Is he drawing nigh?
14484Is he gone?
14484Is he living, dost thou know?
14484Is he too departed?
14484Is it by chance, or heard she of her son?
14484Is it she or no?
14484Is it some lightning- bolt new- fallen from Zeus, Or cloud- born hail that is come rattling down?
14484Is it thy choice now to go home with me?
14484Is it thy voice?
14484Is it true?
14484Is it well?
14484Is my prayer heard?
14484Is not the city in the sovereign''s hand?
14484Is not this terrible, Laërtes''son Should ever think to bring me with soft words And show me from his deck to all their host?
14484Is not this violence?
14484Is pain upon thee?
14484Is that thy thought?
14484Is that your counsel?
14484Is that, now, clearly spoken, or no?
14484Is the King coming?
14484Is there no help but this abode must see The past and future ills of Pelops''race?
14484Is there none to strike me With doubly sharpened blade a mortal blow?
14484Is there something more?
14484Is''t not Orestes''body that I bear?
14484Is''t not a silly scheme, To think to compass without troops of friends Power, that is only won by wealth and men?
14484Is''t not proved?
14484Is''t possible that thou shouldst grieve for me?
14484Is''t possible we have some kinsman here?
14484Is''t possible?
14484Jocasta, my dear queen, why didst thou send To bring me hither from our palace- hall?
14484Just, that my murderer have a peaceful end?
14484Kind friend, first tell me what I first would know-- Shall I receive my Heracles alive?
14484Kind voice of Heaven, soft- breathing from the height I 1 Of Pytho''s opulent home to Thebè bright, What wilt thou bring to day?
14484Know I not things in Thebes Better than thou?
14484Know ye of one Begotten of Laius?
14484Know ye what thing ye ask?
14484Know''st not into whose hands thou gav''st me once?
14484Know''st thou not Thy silence argues thine accuser''s plea?
14484Know''st thou on what terms I yield it?
14484Know''st thou''tis of thy sovereign thou speak''st this?
14484Know''st thou, is this of whom he speaks the same?
14484LEADER OF CHORUS What portent from the Gods is here?
14484Lady, why tarriest thou I 2 To lead thy husband in?
14484Learn what?
14484Lest from your parents you receive a stain?
14484Lichas, tell, Who is the stranger- nymph?
14484Look, O my lord, to thy path, Either to go or to stay How is my thought to proceed?
14484Lords of Colonos, will ye suffer it?
14484Madly it sounds-- Or springs it of deep grief For proofs of madness harrowing to his eye?
14484Makes he towards us?
14484Mariners, Must ye, too, leave me thus disconsolate?
14484Mark ye the brave and bold, II 1 Whom none could turn of old, When once he set his face to the fierce fight?
14484May I know?
14484May I sit?
14484May I then speak true counsel to my friend, And pull with thee in policy as of yore?
14484May it be told, or must no stranger know?
14484May not men Repent and change?
14484May not persuasion fetch him?
14484May this clear evidence be mine to see?
14484May we not know the reasons of your will?
14484Me miserable, which way shall I turn, Which look upon?
14484Mean''st thou from those same urns whereof thou speakest?
14484Mean''st thou in this the fortune of thy sons Or mine?
14484Mean''st thou that prime misfortune of thy birth?
14484Mean''st thou this?
14484Mean''st thou to Troy, and to the hateful sons Of Atreus, me, with this distressful limb?
14484Meanwhile he needs some comfort and some guide, For such a load of misery who can bear?
14484Methinks thou knowest too, for thou hast seen, My kind reception of the stranger- maid?
14484Methought I heard thee say, King Laius Was at a cross- road overpowered and slain?
14484Mistress, wilt thou go yonder and make known, That certain Phocians on Aegisthus wait?
14484Most hostile to her of all souls that are?
14484Moved by an oracle, or from some vow?
14484Moves he?
14484Must I be taught impiety from thee?
14484Must I endure such words from him?
14484Must I lose thy voice?
14484Must I not even sacrifice in peace From your harsh clamour, when you''ve had your say?
14484Must I not fear my mother''s marriage- bed?
14484Must I still follow as thou thinkest good?
14484Must double vileness then be mine Both shameful silence and most shameful speech?
14484Must not the King be told of what will come?
14484Must the same syllables be thrice thrown forth?
14484Must we endure detraction from a slave?
14484My daughter, why these tears?
14484My daughters, Have ye both heard our friends who inhabit here?
14484My daughters, are ye there?
14484My heart hangs on thy word with trembling awe: What new giv''n law, Or what returning in Time''s circling round Wilt thou unfold?
14484My son, are ye now setting forth?
14484My son, what fairest gale hath wafted thee?
14484My son, what saidst thou?
14484Next inform us of Laërtes''son; How stands his fortune?
14484No more?
14484No more?
14484No right to mourn my brother who is gone?
14484Not dead?
14484Not know?
14484Not know?
14484Nought else beneath the roof?
14484Now if that stranger Had aught in common with king Laius, What wretch on earth was e''er so lost as I?
14484Now, canst thou tell me where we have set our feet?
14484Now, dost thou know on Oeta''s topmost height The crag of Zeus?
14484Now, what remains?
14484O Athens''sovereign lord, what hast thou said?
14484O Father, who are these?
14484O Lemnian earth and thou almighty flame, Hephaestos''workmanship, shall this be borne, That he by force must drag me from your care?
14484O charnel gulf I 2 Of death on death, not to be done away, Why harrowest thou my soul?
14484O my dread lord, therein do I offend?
14484O poor torn limb, what shall I do with thee Through all my days to be?
14484O shameful plea?
14484O ye his daughters, one with me in blood, Say, will not ye endeavour to unlock The stern lips of our unrelenting sire?
14484O, foot, torn helpless thing, What wilt thou do to me?
14484OLD M. Kind dames and damsels, may I clearly know If these be King Aegisthus''palace- halls?
14484OLD M. Lady, why hath my speech disheartened thee?
14484OLD M. May I guess further that in yonder dame I see his queen?
14484Odysseus''voice?
14484Oedipus, wherefore is Jocasta gone, Driven madly by wild grief?
14484Of Laius once the sovereign of this land?
14484Of what country or what race Shall I pronounce ye?
14484Of what wild enterprise?
14484Of whom?
14484Of whom?
14484Oh where?
14484Oh, am I thus dishonoured of the dead?
14484Oh, how shall we commend Such dealings, how defend them?
14484Oh, where, then, lies the stern Aias, of saddest name, whose purpose none might turn?
14484On whose behalf Slew he my child?
14484Only let me hear thy will, Is''t constant to remain here and endure, Or to make voyage with us?
14484Or beguiled she one sweet hour With Apollo in her bower, Who loves to trace the field untrod by man?
14484Or better, where he may himself be found?
14484Or did the Bacchic god, Who makes the top of Helicon to nod, Take thee for a foundling care From his playmates that are there?
14484Or doth some memory haunt you of the deeds I did before you, and went on to do Worse horrors here?
14484Or hath he left the palace?
14484Or how?
14484Or is my voice as vain Now, as you thought it when you planned this thing?
14484Or is the battle still to be?
14484Or is thy love Thy father''s, be his actions what they may?
14484Or peers Fate through the gloom?
14484Or shall kindness fade?
14484Or stood his valour unaccompanied In all this host?
14484Or terrible, but gainful?
14484Or was the God- abandoned father''s heart Tender toward them and cruel to my child?
14484Or was the ruler of Cyllene''s height The author of thy light?
14484Or where for fathers, than their children''s fame?
14484Or wouldst thou tempt me further?
14484Or, hast thou seen them honouring villany?
14484Our land''s chivalry Are valiant, valiant every warrior son Of Theseus.--On they run?
14484Own sister of my blood, one life with me, Ismenè, have the tidings caught thine ear?
14484Polybus in his grave?
14484Return?
14484Saidst thou a slaughtered queen in yonder hall Lay in her blood, crowning the pile of ruin?
14484Sailed he not forth of his own sovereign will?
14484Say then what cruel workman forged the gifts, But Fury this sharp sword, Hell that bright band?
14484Say then, shall Theban dust o''ershadow me?
14484Say what?
14484Say wherefore dost thou crave with such desire The clearness of an undistracted mind?
14484Say, can the mind be noble, where the stream Of gratitude is withered from the spring?
14484Say, dames and damsels, have we heard aright, And speed we to the goal of our desire?
14484Say, dost thou bear my bidding full in mind?
14484Say, for what cause, after so long a time, Can Atreus''sons have turned their thoughts on him, Whom long they had cast forth?
14484Say, for what end?
14484Say, hath not Heaven decreed to execute On thee and me, while yet we are alive, All the evil Oedipus bequeathed?
14484Say, is Aegisthus near while thus you speak?
14484Say, is it well?
14484Say, maidens, how must I proceed?
14484Say, must I tell it with these standing by, Or go within?
14484Say, must we call them back in presence here, Or would''st thou tell thy news to these and me?
14484Say, was she clasped by mountain roving Pan?
14484Seest thou not?
14484Shall I add more, to aggravate thy wrath?
14484Shall I go, then, and find out The name of the spot?
14484Shall I mourn Him first, or wait till I have heard thy tale?
14484Shall I raise the dead again to life?
14484Shall I raise thee on mine arm?
14484Shall I, across the Aegean sailing home, Leave these Atridae and their fleet forlorn?
14484Shall men have joy, And not remember?
14484Shall other men prescribe my government?
14484Shall our age, forsooth, Be taught discretion by a peevish boy?
14484Shall we not sail when this south- western wind Hath fallen, that now is adverse to our course?
14484Shall we stay, And list again the lamentable sound?
14484Single or child- bearing?
14484Slave- born, or rightly of the royal line?
14484Son of Menoeceus, brother of my queen, What answer from Apollo dost thou bring?
14484Sore?
14484Speak you plain sooth?
14484Speak, aged friend, whose look proclaims thee meet To be their spokesman-- What desire, what fear Hath brought you?
14484Speak, any one of you in presence here, Can you make known the swain he tells us of, In town or country having met with him?
14484Speaks he from hearsay, or as one who knows?
14484Stay; whither art bound?
14484Strange in the stranger land, I 1 What shall I speak?
14484Stranger, dost thou perceive?
14484Strive they?
14484Such, mother, is the crime thou hast devised And done against our sire, wherefore let Right And Vengeance punish thee!--May I pray so?
14484Sure thou wast not with us, when at first We launched our vessels on the Troyward way?
14484Tell me the great cause Why thou inveighest against them with such heat?
14484Tell me this; Didst thou, or not, urge me to send and bring The reverend- seeming prophet?
14484Tell me, I pray, what was become of him, Patroclus, whom thy father loved so well?
14484Tell me, my daughter, is the man away?
14484Tell me, what hope is mine of daily food, Who will be careful for my good?
14484Tell us, how ended she her life in blood?
14484That I may not escape thee?
14484That this is well?
14484The sacrificer stands prepared,--and when More keen?
14484The slayer, who?
14484Then am not I the spoiler, as ye said?
14484Then at that season did he mention me?
14484Then how could I endure the light of heaven?
14484Then how not others, like to me?
14484Then if the king shall hear this from another, How shalt thou''scape for''t?
14484Then is not laughter sweetest o''er a foe?
14484Then is the land inhabited of men?
14484Then seest thou not What meed of honour, if thou dost my will, Thou shalt apportion to thyself and me?
14484Then seest thou not how true unto their aim Our father''s prophecies of mutual death Against you both are sped?
14484Then shall I advance Before the Trojan battlements, and there In single conflict doing valiantly Last die upon their spears?
14484Then tell me, who is she thou brought''st with thee?
14484Then why doth he not come, but still delay?
14484Then you require this with an absolute will?
14484Then, am not I third- partner with you twain?
14484They force me?
14484Think you I will yield?
14484Think you he will consider the blind man, And come in person here to visit him?
14484Think you that you bear In those cold gifts atonement for her guilt?
14484Think you the wretch in heartfelt agony Weeps inconsolably her perished son?
14484Think you to triumph in offending still?
14484Think, O my lord, of thy path, Secretly look forth afar, What wilt thou do for thy need?
14484Thou art so resolved?
14484Thou bidst me then let bury this dead man?
14484Thou didst what deed that misbecame thy life?
14484Thou dost not mean thy gift to Heracles?
14484Thou hast full cognizance How things within the palace are preserved?
14484Thou knowest the captive maid thou leddest home?
14484Thou wilt not answer him about the child?
14484Through what dark traffic is the mariner Betraying me with whispering in thine ear?
14484Thy dwelling with us, then, is our great gain?
14484Thy father?
14484Thy mistress, sayest?
14484Thy mother''s bed, Say, didst thou fill?
14484Thy murderer?
14484Thy potent cause for spending so much breath?
14484Till what term wilt thou remain Inactive?
14484To ask simply, as Carlyle once did,''What did they think?''
14484To bring me back with reasons or perforce?
14484To bury him, when all have been forbidden?
14484To expire On sharp- cut dragging thongs,''Midst wildly trampling throngs Of swiftly racing hoofs, like him, Poor hapless one?
14484To her and me?
14484To him?
14484To lie?
14484To thrust me from the land?
14484To what end?
14484To what end?
14484To whom beyond thyself and me belongs Such consecration?
14484To whom more worthy should I tell my grief?
14484Treason or dulness then?
14484Unhappy man, will not even Time bring forth One spark of wisdom to redeem thine age?
14484Unhappy that ye are, why have ye reared Your wordy rancour''mid the city''s harms?
14484Unto what doom doth my Fate drive me now?
14484Vanished in ruin by a dire defeat?
14484Voices of prophecy, where are ye now?
14484Was Death then so enamoured of my seed, That he must feast thereon and let theirs live?
14484Was all that love unto a foundling shown?
14484Was it so dark?
14484Was not Aias he?
14484Was not Eteocles thy brother too?
14484Was not he the author of my life?
14484Was she unknown, as he that brought her sware?
14484Was this planned against the Argives, then?
14484Was''t for the Argive host?
14484Was''t then before that city he was kept Those endless ages of uncounted time?
14484Was''t your own, or from another''s hand?
14484Wast thou Laius''slave?
14484Well, and what follows to complete the rite?
14484Well, bring it forth.--What?
14484Well, dost remember having given me then A child, that I might nurture him for mine?
14484Well, for thy sake I''d grant a greater boon; Then why not this?
14484Well, have ye found?
14484Well, since''tis so, how can I help thee now?
14484Well, sirs?
14484Were they not there To take this journey for their father''s good?
14484What Power impelled thee?
14484What Theban gave it, from what home in Thebes?
14484What aid of God or mortal can I find?
14484What ails thee now?
14484What ails thee, Dêanira, Oeneus''child?
14484What are the appointed forms?
14484What are these tokens, aged monarch, say?
14484What are they?
14484What are thy purposes against me, Zeus?
14484What art thou doing, knave?
14484What augur ye from this?
14484What benefit Comes to thee from o''erturning thine own land?
14484What bid you then that I have power to do?
14484What blow is harder than to call me false?
14484What boon dost thou desire so earnestly?
14484What boon dost thou profess to have brought with thee?
14484What boon, my children, are ye bent to obtain?
14484What burden through the darkness fell Where still at eventide''twas well?
14484What call so nearly times with mine approach?
14484What can I do for thee now, even now?
14484What can have roused him to a work so wild?
14484What can it profit thee to vex me so?
14484What can life profit me without my sister?
14484What can there be that we have not on board?
14484What canst thou mean?
14484What canst thou mean?
14484What cares oppress thee?
14484What cause Having appeared, will bring this doom to pass?
14484What cause hast thou Thus to arrest my going?
14484What cause have they to laugh?
14484What chance shall win men''s marvel?
14484What change is here, my son?
14484What change will never- terminable Time Not heave to light, what hide not from the day?
14484What charge or occupation was thy care?
14484What charge then wouldst thou further lay on us?
14484What citizen or stranger told thee this?
14484What converse keeps thee now beyond the gates, Dear sister?
14484What could I see, whom hear With gladness, whom delight in any more?
14484What countryman, and wherefore suppliant there?
14484What countrymen?
14484What crave ye, sirs?
14484What dark speech Hast thou contrived?
14484What deed of his could harm thy sovereign head?
14484What destiny, dear girl, Awaits us both, bereaved and fatherless?
14484What do I hear?
14484What do I hear?
14484What do I hear?
14484What dost thou bid me do?
14484What dost thou bid me?
14484What dost thou forbid, old sir?
14484What dost thou mean?
14484What dost thou, stranger?
14484What dost thou?
14484What eager thought attends his presence here?
14484What else were natural?
14484What evil is not here?
14484What evil would thy words disclose?
14484What far land Holds me in pain that ceaseth not?
14484What fault is there in reverencing my power?
14484What fear you?
14484What fine advantage wouldst thou first achieve?
14484What followed?
14484What fool is he That counts one day, or two, or more to come?
14484What friend hath moved her?
14484What friend will carry thee?
14484What further use of thee, When we have ta''en these arms?
14484What fury of wild thought Came o''er thee?

11080In fact, what have you not sanctioned,--what have you not done? 11080 Or his son, if he could be at home?"
11080Suppose a man had given a slave a thing which a slave is by law incapable of receiving, is it on that account the act of the man who received it? 11080 Suppose he has a better farm than you have, which farm, I should like to know, would you prefer to possess?"
11080Suppose he has a better wife than you have, would you prefer his wife?
11080Suppose she has dresses and other ornaments suited to women, of more value than those which you have, should you prefer your own or hers?
11080Tell me, I beg of you, O you wife of Xenophon, if your neighbour has better gold than you have, whether you prefer her gold or your own?
11080What are they?
11080What would you think if so and so had happened?
11080What, does Caius Caesar demand money of me? 11080 What?
11080Who are you?
11080[ Do you not know] that no one of the party of Pompeius, who is still alive, can, by the Hirtian law, possess any rank?
11080and the people voted it with due regularityWhat people?
11080( for what else can I call him?
11080--"What is the shape of the world?"
11080--"What is the size of the sun?"
11080--"Whether the senses may be trusted?"
11080--still, who was it most natural to expect would fight against the children of Cnaeus Pompeius?
11080Afterwards he will proceed to ask his adversaries--"What would you say if I had done so and so?"
11080Again, what king was ever so preposterously impudent as to have all the profits, and kindnesses, and privileges of his kingdom on sale?
11080Although, O conscript fathers, how long are we to deliver our opinions as it may please the veterans?
11080Although, can one deny a thing to a person who not only does not ask for it, but who even refuses it?
11080Although, how is he the master at all?
11080Am I embarrassing you?
11080Am I inexperienced in state affairs?
11080Am I speaking falsely?
11080Am I to receive commands from a man who despises the commands of the senate?
11080Am I ungrateful?
11080And I ask them whether the authors themselves could have clothed their speeches in better Latin?
11080And accordingly, what place did you obtain about Caesar''s person after his return from Africa?
11080And afterwards he has,--"Stilphonem, inquam, noveras?"
11080And afterwards what wickedness, or what crime was there which that traitor abstained from?
11080And are we the only people blamed?
11080And are you the defenders of the acts of Caesar who overturn his laws?
11080And are you then diligent in doing honour to Caesar''s memory?
11080And as for that ruined and desperate man, what more hostile decision can be passed upon him than has already been passed by his own friends?
11080And as this is the case, do you think that I ought to have no consideration for my own danger?
11080And did you place around it abandoned men armed with swords?
11080And do we suppose that the orders of the senate, and the words of the ambassadors, will be listened to by this Asiatic gladiator?
11080And do you dare taunt me with the name of that man whose friend you admit that I was, and whose assassin you confess yourself?
11080And does he venture to look down on any one because of the meanness of his birth, when he has himself children by Fadia?
11080And from this arise the questions for decision:"Whether they would have been lost?"
11080And how covetous will he be with respect to the money of rich men, when he thirsted for even the blood of poor men?
11080And how is it possible to avoid such feet in an oration?
11080And how was it, that when you owed forty millions of sesterces on the fifteenth of March, you had ceased to owe them by the first of April?
11080And if any one should institute a prosecution against you, and employ that test of old Cassius,"who reaped any advantage from it?"
11080And if he obtains that, what is there that he can fear?
11080And if his heart And face be seats of shameless impudence, Then what avails your accusation Of one who views all fame with careless eye?"
11080And if that is the case,( and I really believe it is,) what then?
11080And in what words?
11080And is there no extent of calamity by which so faithful a city can satiate you?
11080And not only without their knowledge, but even against their will?
11080And shall accusations and odium be attempted to be excited against those men who devote all their thoughts to ensuring the safety of the republic?
11080And shall we hesitate to call the men at whose hands we feared all these things enemies?
11080And so Terence does use both forms, and says,--"Eho, tu cognatum tuum non nôras?"
11080And that is of this kind: whether it was right that his mother should be put to death by Orestes, because she had put to death Orestes''s father?
11080And then will you think yourself a consular, or a senator, or even a citizen?
11080And though nothing could be added to this,( for, indeed, what could he propose more severe or more pitiless?)
11080And we see that, even in the play, the very man who said,"What care I though all men should hate my name, So long as fear accompanies their hate?"
11080And what a return was that of yours from Narbo?
11080And what are we to think of his having ventured to say that, after he had given up his magistracy, he should still be at the city with his army?
11080And what can be worse?
11080And what is so difficult as, while deciding disputes between many people, to be beloved by all of them?
11080And what is this but exhorting young men to be turbulent, seditious, mischievous citizens?
11080And what principles of peace can there be with that man who is full of incredible cruelty, and destitute of faith?
11080And what reason is there, O you wicked man, for lamenting that Dolabella has been declared an enemy by the senate?
11080And what their return is to bring us I know not, but who is there who does not see with how much languor the expectation of it infects our minds?
11080And what wages have you paid this rhetorician?
11080And what was his home?
11080And what was the object of his journey to Brundusium?
11080And what would be a greater liberty than to contract even men''s names, so as to make them more suitable to verse?
11080And when Scato had saluted him,"What,"said he,"am I to call you?"
11080And whence did that suspicion arise?
11080And while the fact of the war is in doubt, how can men possibly be zealous about the levies for the army?
11080And who are the commanders of those armies?
11080And who ever employed such compulsion as the threat of such an injury as to a senator?
11080And who of us can forget with what great moderation he behaved during that crisis of the city which ensued after the death of Caesar?
11080And with what diligence will he marshal the arguments with which he has provided himself?
11080And yet if any one attempts to excite people to the study of oratory, or to assist the youth of the city in that pursuit, should he be blamed?
11080And yet who has ever been considered either more conscientious or more agreeable than you?
11080And you, O conscript fathers, if you abandon and betray Marcus Brutus, what citizen in the world will you ever distinguish?
11080And, in the next place, as rhythm appears one thing and a rhythmical sentence another, what is the difference between them?
11080And, when those men have a right of appeal given them, are not the acts of Caesar rescinded?
11080Are there five parts of that argumentation which is carried on by ratiocination?
11080Are these things a feeble indication of the incredible unanimity of the entire Roman people?
11080Are those men depraved and corrupted, who have been persuaded to pursue a most detestable enemy with most righteous war?
11080Are those men who propose this acquainted with the constitution of the republic, with the laws of war, with the precedents of our ancestors?
11080Are we sending an embassy to our own citizen, to beg him not to attack a general and a colony of the Roman people?
11080Are we still to allow any further delay while the ambassadors are on their road to him?
11080Are we then, O ye good gods, to resolve to send ambassadors to this man?
11080Are we to send ambassadors again?
11080Are we waiting till there is not even a vestige of the towns and cities of Asia left?
11080Are you ignorant that yesterday was the fourth day of the Roman games in the Circus?
11080Are you in your senses?
11080Are you not ashamed to dwell so long in that house?
11080Are you saying all this of yourself?
11080Are you then going now to arrange rewards for those men who have taken arms against Antonius, and to send ambassadors to Antonius?
11080Are you waiting for me to prick you more?
11080As for us, what concessions did not we make to Cotyla the ambassador of Marcus Antonius?
11080At present, I ask, what are the topics of conjecture?
11080Because I knew of it beforehand?
11080Between what parties?
11080But I want to know what you mean, O Calenus?
11080But afterwards, when Pompeius joined Caesar with all his heart, what could have been my object in attempting to separate them then?
11080But as for this most foul monster, who could endure him, or how could any one endure him?
11080But can we be equally safe among Antonius''s piratical crew?
11080But do you, O Antonius, dare to say that Caesar, the father, was deceived by me?
11080But how could it occur to you to recal to our recollection that you had been educated in the house of Publius Lentulus?
11080But how could such a charge ever come into your head?
11080But if praise can not allure you to act rightly, still can not even fear turn you away from the most shameful actions?
11080But if the leadership of the state were at stake, which I have never coveted, what could be more desirable for me than such conduct on your part?
11080But if their own ears are so uncivilised and barbarous, will not the authority of even the most learned men influence them?
11080But if unlettered custom is such an artist of euphony, what must we think is required by scientific art and systematic learning?
11080But if you disapprove of a wife from Aricia, why do you approve of one from Tusculum?
11080But in the most melancholy circumstances what mirth does he not provoke?
11080But it is not lawful for any one to lead an army against his country?
11080But now why need I vote that they ought to be annulled, when I do not consider that they were ever legally passed?
11080But on what did the dispute turn?
11080But perhaps we, who are his colleagues, may be the interpreters of the auspices?
11080But say you, my speech alienated from me the regard of Pompeius?
11080But the manner, also, is inquired into, in what manner, how, and with what design the action was done?
11080But under this arch- pirate,( for why should I say tyrant?)
11080But was it possible for you to stand for the augurship at a time when Curio was not in Italy?
11080But we were caught by this expression of Quintus Fufius;"Shall we not listen to Antonius, even if he retires from Mutina?
11080But what a pest, and how great a pest was it which he resisted?
11080But what business had he with Apollonia?
11080But what does he add?
11080But what had Antonius to do at all with Illyricum and with the legions of Vatinius?
11080But what is danger?
11080But what is it that he has done himself?
11080But what is that third decury?
11080But what is the state of things now?
11080But what is there which is not open for consideration to a wise man, as long as it can be remodelled?
11080But what province is there in which that firebrand may not kindle a conflagration?
11080But what reason has he for taking so much trouble about them?
11080But what shall we say of you?
11080But what sort of kindness is it, to have abstained from committing nefarious wickedness?
11080But what were the terms of his edict?
11080But when he had summoned us all by so severe an edict, why did he not attend himself?
11080But when the question is, What can be done?
11080But which way did he flee?
11080But who are they whom Antonius does consult?
11080But who ever knew, or could possibly have known this Gortynian judge?
11080But who is there who does not know with what great perfidy both of you treated Dolabella in that business?
11080But who says that the estate of Varro at Casinum was ever sold at all?
11080But who was ever found before, except Publius Clodius, to find fault with my consulship?
11080But whoever heard( and there was no man about whose safety more people were anxious) that any part whatever of Varro''s property had been confiscated?
11080But why did you not hold that comitia?
11080But why do I argue any more about this law?
11080But why do I ask whether you wish this?
11080But why do I cite poets of godlike genius?
11080But why need I say more?
11080But why should I mention individuals?
11080But why should I seek to make an impression on you by my speech?
11080But why should I talk about vowels?
11080But will any one hesitate to call Caesar imperator?
11080But will you plead every cause in the same manner, or are there some kind of causes which you will reject?
11080But you have dared besides( what is there which you would not dare?)
11080But you, who are defending the acts of Caesar, what reason can you give for defending some, and disregarding others?
11080But you, who can not deny that you also were distinguished by Caesar, what would you have been if he had not showered so many kindnesses on you?
11080But, as it is, who is there who doubts that it was the embassy itself which caused his death?
11080But, moreover, if there were anything which were to be feared from Marcus Brutus, would not Pansa perceive it?
11080By what evidence could you convict me?
11080By what law?
11080By what right?
11080By what right?
11080By whom are they produced and vouched for?
11080Caesar wished to drain the marshes: this man has given all Italy to that moderate man Lucius Antonius to distribute.--What?
11080Can I, then, appear as cautious and as prudent as I ought to be if I commit myself to a journey so full of enemies and dangers to me?
11080Can any one divine beforehand what defect there will be in the auspices, except the man who has already determined to observe the heavens?
11080Can any one then fear a man who was as timid as this man in upholding his party, that is, in upholding his own fortunes?
11080Can any relationship be nearer than that of one''s country, in which even one''s parents are comprised?
11080Can not we see easily from whence it arises that we say_ cum illis_, but we do not say_ cum nobis_, but_ nobiscum_?
11080Can the republic then stand, relying wholly on veterans, without a great reinforcement of the youth of the state?
11080Can these laws be ratified without the destruction of all other laws?
11080Can we then doubt which of these alternatives is the fact?
11080Can you deny this, when you interpose every sort of delay calculated to weaken Brutus, and to improve the position of Antonius?
11080Can you find one single article in this long speech of mine, to which you trust that you can make any answer?
11080Cavalry do I say?
11080Charybdis, do I say?
11080Come, are you the only people who hate him; and whom he hates?
11080Come; suppose he obeys, shall we either be inclined, or shall we be able by any possibility, to treat him as one of our citizens?
11080Concealed, do I say?
11080Could you, O Dolabella,( it is with great concern that I speak,)--could you, I say, forfeit this dignity with equanimity?
11080Cur de perfugis nostris copias comparant inter nos?"
11080Decreed, do I say?
11080Defending it against whom?
11080Did I persuade Caius Trebonius?
11080Did he not say, in the hearing of all the people, while sitting in front of the temple of Castor, that no one should remain alive but the conqueror?
11080Did he think that it was easiest to disparage me in the senate?
11080Did he wish you to make any motion about a supplication?
11080Did not the Macedonian Alexander, having begun to perform mighty deeds from his earliest youth, die when he was only in his thirty- third year?
11080Did the death of Caesar also put an end to your opinion respecting the auspices?
11080Did we not see the deed done before we even suspected that it was going to be done?
11080Did you dare to cross that most sacred threshold?
11080Did you dare to enter into that house?
11080Did you not also desert him in the matter of the septemvirate?
11080Did you who wish every one to be safe, wish Catiline to be safe?
11080Did you, who were his sister''s son, ever once consult him on the affairs of the republic?
11080Do they give a thought to what the majesty of the Roman people and the severity of the senate requires?
11080Do we also want interpreters of arms?
11080Do we not know then, O Pansa, over what places the authority of Lenti Caesennius, as a septemvir, prevails at present?
11080Do you again cry out against my statement?
11080Do you call slavery peace?
11080Do you dare to call that man a poisoner who has found a remedy against your own poisoning tricks?
11080Do you deny it?
11080Do you doubt what you are to do?
11080Do you love him even now that he is dead?
11080Do you never think on these things?
11080Do you not know that I am speaking of matters with which I am thoroughly acquainted?
11080Do you not perceive, do you not hear, that the adoption of my opinion is demanded by them?
11080Do you not see how the forum is crowded?
11080Do you not see that all these crimes flow from one source?
11080Do you not think, O Conscript fathers, that I should have some regard for my own life?
11080Do you recollect that, while you were still clad in the praetexta, you became a bankrupt?
11080Do you regret your most illustrious citizens?
11080Do you resolve to send ambassadors?
11080Do you suppose that he was detained by any melancholy or important occasion?
11080Do you suppose that it will continue to glow with the same zeal with which it burnt before to extinguish this common conflagration?
11080Do you suppose, O conscript fathers, that he spoke with more violence than he would act?
11080Do you then find fault with me?
11080Do you think either those consuls or those other most illustrious men deserving of blame?
11080Do you think that Antonius, if he had the power, would be more merciful in Italy than Dolabella has proved in Asia?
11080Do you think that I am so completely made of iron as to be able unmoved to meet him, or look at him?
11080Do you think that I shall have no occasion to fear plots then?
11080Do you think that he would have been willing to deserve even immortality, at the price of being feared in consequence of his licentious use of arms?
11080Do you think that the power of even the Gracchi was greater than that of this gladiator will be?
11080Do you think, O conscript fathers, that you have induced the Roman people to approve of the sending ambassadors?
11080Do you think, then, that there is never to be a beginning of our endeavours to recover our freedom?
11080Do you wish then that he should again appear to be the only person stripped of his authority, and as it were banished by the senate?
11080Do you, O conscript fathers, grieve that these armies of the Roman people have been slain?
11080Do you, then, shut me up with the other leaders in the partnership in this design, as in the Trojan horse?
11080Does he dare to make mention of the Luperci?
11080Does he mean what a man does who is invested with any dignity?
11080Does he then retire from Mutina?
11080Does he understand Latin?
11080Does he-- which is most important-- does he know anything about our laws and manners?
11080Does it appear a trifling matter, that he confesses himself a partner with Dolabella in all his atrocities?
11080Does it become virtuous men to do everything which it is in their power to do?
11080Does not even a triumph put an end to the war?
11080Even if he were willing to do so himself, do you think that his brother Lucius would permit him?
11080Even if the judges were inclined to make such an addition to the law, would the people permit it?
11080Everything, in short, which we have seen since that time,( and what misfortune is there that we have not seen?)
11080F._ Are we then to derive arguments from all these topics?
11080F._ By what means is belief produced?
11080F._ Can we, then, always preserve that order of arrangement which we desire to adopt?
11080F._ How, then, do you divide these two heads?
11080F._ How, then, do you explain them?
11080F._ In what does the power of the orator consist?
11080F._ In what manner?
11080F._ Into how many parts is the whole system of speaking divided?
11080F._ Is there nothing remaining to be said about the orator himself?
11080F._ Since, then, the first business of the orator is discovery, what is he to look for?
11080F._ Since, then, you have thus explained all the power of an orator, what have you to tell me about the rules for an oration?
11080F._ The end of the oration remains to be spoken of by you; and that is included in the peroration, which I wish to hear you explain?
11080F._ What are the arguments which you say belong to the cause?
11080F._ What are the different kinds of testimony?
11080F._ What are they?
11080F._ What comes next?
11080F._ What divisions, then, are there in this part of the argument?
11080F._ What do you mean by those topics which exist in the thing itself?
11080F._ What do you mean by topics?
11080F._ What have you then to say about the cause?
11080F._ What is an argument?
11080F._ What next?
11080F._ What next?
11080F._ What next?
11080F._ What objects shall the orator propose to himself in these three kinds of oratory?
11080F._ What, on the other hand, is the person accused to do?
11080F._ What, then, comes next?
11080F._ What?
11080F._ What?
11080F._ What?
11080F._ Why then do you choose this place to explain the different kinds of disputes?
11080For even if he himself was calculated to be a slave, why should he impose a master on us?
11080For even they themselves do not wish to be feared by us.--Still, how will they receive my severity?
11080For example:--"If he is a worthless fellow, why are you intimate with him?
11080For how can a man be supported by the unanimity of his citizens, who has no city at all?
11080For how can we be free from fear and danger while menaced by such covetousness and audacity?
11080For how could any one think of such a thing?
11080For how long are we to trust to the prudence of an individual to repel so important, so cruel, and so nefarious a war?
11080For how long are you going to attack Marseilles?
11080For how long will you keep on saying that you are desirous of peace?
11080For how was it that Axilla was made Ala, except by the flight of the larger letter?
11080For if he were not one, by what right could he himself have tempted the cavalry to abandon the consul?
11080For in what city, when taken by storm, did Hannibal even behave with such ferocity as Antonius did in Parma, which he filched by surprise?
11080For in what country of barbarians was there ever so foul and cruel a tyrant as Antonius, escorted by the arms of barbarians, has proved in this city?
11080For is it once only that I have defended peace?
11080For is the dissension between you and me a trifling one, or on a trifling subject?
11080For on what principle or by what means can an army be retained by a man who has not been invested with any military command?
11080For to whom are we sending ambassadors?
11080For what can be more unreasonable than for us to pass resolutions about peace without the knowledge of those men who wage the war?
11080For what course could my industry pursue without forensic causes, without laws, without courts of justice?
11080For what do you mean?
11080For what does not apply to him?
11080For what else can we call him, when the senate decides that extraordinary honours are to be devised for those men who are leading armies against him?
11080For what else is Antonius?
11080For what expression is there in those letters which is not full of humanity and service and benevolence?
11080For what had that house ever beheld except what was modest, except what proceeded from the purest principles and from the most virtuous practice?
11080For what has he done?
11080For what is a"tumult,"but such a violent disturbance that an unusual alarm is engendered by it?
11080For what is more shameful than for a man to undertake the conduct of legal and civil disputes, while ignorant of the statutes and of civil law?
11080For what is so different or remote from severity as courtesy?
11080For what is the difference between a man who has advised an action, and one who has approved of it?
11080For what is the life of a man unless by a recollection of bygone transactions it is united to the times of his predecessors?
11080For what need is there for an instance?
11080For what other pretence did he allege?
11080For what other sort of defence deserves praise?
11080For what prosecutor will be found insane enough to be willing, after the defendant has been condemned, to expose himself to the fury of a hired mob?
11080For what reason can there be, O conscript fathers, why we should not wish him to arrive at the highest honours at as early an age as possible?
11080For what single man has ever been braver, what single man has ever been more devoted to the republic than the whole of the Martial legion?
11080For what soldier was there who did not see her at Brundusium?
11080For what title can I more suitably bestow on Pansa?
11080For what was more advantageous for the Thebans than for the Lacedaemonians to be put down?
11080For what was the meaning of the shouts of the innumerable crowd of citizens collected at the gladiatorial games?
11080For when will the consul arrive?
11080For where can we find any one who is chaster than this young man?
11080For who can be happier than those men whom you boast of having now expelled and driven from the city?
11080For who ever heard my name mentioned as an accomplice in that most glorious action?
11080For who ever seeks for honour, or glory, or praise, or any kind of credit as earnestly as he flees from ignominy, infamy, contumely, and disgrace?
11080For who ever was a more bitter enemy to another than Caesar was to Deiotarus?
11080For who is there at this day to whom it is an object that that law should stand?
11080For who, when the senate recals him and sounds a retreat, will be eager to engage in battle?
11080For why should I put myself in the way of your audacity?
11080For why should I speak of Trebellius?
11080For why should I speak of the whole Roman people?
11080Had so good a gladiator as you retired from business so early?
11080Has any one had a right of entering the forum?
11080Has he assumed all this credit to himself, because as a mumillo at Mylasa he slew the Thracian, his friend?
11080Has he conquered for himself alone?
11080Has he seen this truth as a boy, and when he has advanced in age will he cease to see it?
11080Has not Antonius been declared an enemy by such acts?
11080Has the manner of inquiry any divisions?
11080Has then the Roman people adopted this law?
11080Have I been deceived?
11080Have I not at all times laboured for tranquillity?
11080Have not I also at all times pronounced Ventidius an enemy, when others wished to call him a tribune of the people?
11080Have they no natural idea of what is useless?
11080Have they no senses of their own to be guided by?
11080Have we anything of the sort?
11080Have we received any other doctrine from our fathers?
11080Have we removed them, or have we rather ratified a law which was passed in the comitia centunata?
11080Have we then said enough up to this point?
11080Have you any secret fear that you yourself may appear to have had some connexion with that crime?
11080Have you dared to write that it is a matter of rejoicing that Trebonius has suffered punishment?
11080Have you not before your eyes those ornaments of the camp of Marcus Antonius?
11080Have you not repeatedly had thinner houses than yesterday?
11080He who was the first man who turned aside the savage and disgraceful cruelty of Antonius, not only from our throats, but from our limbs and bowels?
11080He, then, is his uncle, are you his uncles too, you who voted with him?
11080House, do you say?
11080How can you offer conditions to, or expect equity from, or send an embassy to, or, in short, have anything in common with, this gladiator?
11080How could I justify myself except by showing that I had made some progress in those studies?
11080How could a man be murdered in a much frequented place?
11080How is he to get at him?
11080How is it that the senate has never yet been so full as to enable you to find one single person to agree with your sentiments?
11080How is it that the war has been protracted as long as this, if it be not by procrastination and delay?
11080How is it that you have never once since the first of January been of the same opinion with him who asks you your opinion first?
11080How long should I have been likely to keep them?
11080How long, then, is that man, who has surpassed all enemies in wickedness, to be spared the name of enemy?
11080How many parts of an oration are there?
11080How often has he placed guards to prevent you from entering?
11080How often has his father turned you out of his house?
11080How should we be able to endure him, if he had fought in this forum before the eyes of you all?
11080How then did Dolabella manage to arrive there?
11080How were they verified by you?
11080How will Capua, which at the present time feels like a second Rome, approve of this design of yours?
11080However what answer would you make if I were to deny that I ever sent those letters to you?
11080However, grant that it was a kindness, since no greater kindness could be received from a robber, still in what point can you call me ungrateful?
11080However, what was the kindness that you did me?
11080I ask now, why all on a sudden he became so gentle in the senate, after having been so fierce in his edicts?
11080I ask you then, whether you are ignorant what day this is?
11080I ask you yourself, O Publius Servilius, did your colleague send you any letters concerning that most lamentable battle of Pharsalia?
11080I ask, therefore, would you rather have him like Brutus or like Antonius?
11080I ask, was it not the rhythm which caused it?
11080I come now to Caius Caesar, O conscript fathers; if he had not existed, which of us could have been alive now?
11080I entreat of you, O conscript fathers, which of you fails to see this which Fortune herself, who is called blind, sees?
11080If Caesar himself were alive, could he, do you imagine, defend his own acts more vigorously than that most gallant man Hirtius defends them?
11080If I escape all these great dangers too, do you think my return will be completely safe?
11080If he is an excellent man, why do you accuse him?"
11080If he was merciful, why was he not merciful to his own relations?
11080If he was severe, why was he not so to every one?
11080If our ambassadors are to beg it, what is it that we are afraid of?
11080If that peace is to be received by others, why do we not wait to be entreated for it?
11080If the different kinds are common to each kind of oratory, what are they?
11080If the question is, what is the place of this rhythm?
11080If then Caius Caesar be an enemy, why does the consul submit no motion to the senate?
11080If there is a difference, then what is the difference, and why is the rhythm less visible in a speech than in a verse?
11080If they are false, why are they ratified?
11080If they are parricides, why are they always named by you, both in this assembly and before the Roman people, with a view to do them honour?
11080If they are true, why are they sold?
11080If this had happened to you at supper amid those vast drinking cups of yours, who would not have thought it scandalous?
11080If this law be abrogated, do you think that the acts of Caesar are maintained?
11080If we are asked, What is the circumstance which causes pleasure?
11080If you had no shame before the municipal towns, had you none even before your veteran army?
11080In the name of the immortal gods, can you interpret these facts, and see what is their purport?
11080In truth, what measure except the death of Caesar could possibly have been any relief to your indigent and insolvent condition?
11080In what acts did the third consulship of Cnaeus Pompeius consist?
11080In what could such a suspicion, or rather such gossip, have originated?
11080In whose honour?
11080Is Marcus Antonius desirous of peace?
11080Is he even acquainted with any of the citizens?
11080Is he obeying the senate?
11080Is he qualified by birth and station to be a judge?
11080Is his language finer than Plato''s?
11080Is it becoming to us to beg this by means of ambassadors?
11080Is it merely a case of my favouring this man, and you that man?
11080Is it not better to be dumb, than to say what no one can understand?
11080Is it not so?
11080Is it not sufficient that thanks should not be given to men who have well earned them, by men who are ignorant of the very nature of virtue?
11080Is it not then better to perish a thousand times than to be unable to live in one''s own city without a guard of armed men?
11080Is it possible for there to be peace with Antonius?
11080Is it possible that you should not approve of the Bruti, and should approve of Antonius?
11080Is it possible then for eloquence to escape notice, or does that which a man conceals cease to exist?
11080Is it so?
11080Is not even that war?
11080Is not that war?
11080Is not this destroying all companionship in life, destroying the means by which absent friends converse together?
11080Is not this the way in which they argue?
11080Is not this war?
11080Is the middle of Janus a client of Lucius Antonius?
11080Is then Lucius Antonius the patron of the Roman people?
11080Is there any comparison?
11080Is there any doubt whether we wish our oration to be tolerable only, or also admirable?
11080Is there then any one who is afraid to call those men enemies, whose wickedness he admits to have surpassed even the inhumanity of the Carthaginians?
11080Is this encouraging the spirit of the soldiers, or damping their virtue?
11080Is this now a law, or rather an abrogation of all laws?
11080Its kinds are these:--"Can you fear this man, and not fear that one?"
11080Look at that gilt statue of him on the left what is the inscription upon it?
11080Moreover, what is the meaning of"doing an insult?"
11080Moreover, who ever took more pains to oppose Isocrates?
11080Moreover, will he reconcile himself to, or look mercifully on the province of Gaul, by which he has been excluded and rejected?
11080Moreover, you even sought to move his pity; you threw yourself at his feet as a suppliant; begging for what?
11080Moreover, you used to complain of that former master, who was a man; what do you think you will do when your master is a beast?
11080Must one apply a torch to you to waken you while you are sleeping over such an important affair?
11080Must we not be defeated for everlasting, in consequence of our own counsels?
11080Need I say more?
11080Need I say more?
11080Need I say more?
11080None of what is harsh, cramped, lame, or superfluous?
11080Nor should I much like to say_ armûm judicium_, though the expression occurs in that same poet,--"Nihilne ad te de judicio armûm accidit?"
11080Now that they know this resolution of Antonius, do you think that Aulus Hirtius and Caius Pansa, the consuls, can hesitate to pass over to Antonius?
11080Now what peace, O Marcus Lepidus, can exist with this man?
11080Now who is there who does not see that by this decree Antonius has been adjudged to be an enemy?
11080Now, in the first place, what is the meaning of"worthy?"
11080Now, what can be more reasonable than this demand?
11080Of what assistance?
11080Oh why Do you this youth with these sad arts destroy?
11080On what day was the senate ever more joyful than on that day?
11080Or am I to think that he has anything in common with the senate, who besieges a general of the Roman people in spite of the prohibition of the senate?
11080Or did he wish to contend with me in a rivalry of eloquence?
11080Or if he did perceive it, would not he, too, be anxious about it?
11080Or if you see a race taking place for the acquisition of honours, will you summon all the wicked men you can find to your banner?
11080Or may we be content with those which have been delivered by them?
11080Or those men who abstain from taking arms on either side?
11080Or was a matter of such importance under discussion, that it was desirable for even sick men to be brought down?
11080Or what can deserve greater blame than doing that which is unlawful?
11080Or what is the meaning of this canvassing which that most wise and dignified citizen, Lucius Caesar, has introduced into the senate?
11080Or will he disregard the most ancient laws of the Athenians?
11080Otherwise how will he be able to stop and make his stand on those arguments which are good and suited to his purpose?
11080Ought I not day and night to think of your freedom and of the safety of the republic?
11080Ought I not to be provident for the welfare of my fellow- citizens?
11080Ought I not to complain of the ruin of the republic, lest I should appear ungrateful towards you?
11080Ought we then to send ambassadors to this man, or legions?
11080Ought you not to be put in confinement?
11080P._ What?
11080Pecunia superabat?
11080Plancus, the partner of your counsels?
11080Shall Decimus Brutus submit to the kingly power of a man who is wicked and impious?
11080Shall I be able in that case to reach Ariminum in safety?
11080Shall I be able to bear the sight of Lucius Antonius?
11080Shall I be able to do the same on the roads of the Apennines?
11080Shall I call them Cascas, or Ahalas?
11080Shall I hesitate to call Caesar imperator, a man born for the republic by the express kindness of the gods?
11080Shall we believe it possible for peace to be made with him?
11080Shall we listen to the conditions which he proposes?
11080Shall we not, even if he declares that he will submit himself to the authority of the senate?"
11080Shall we then examine your conduct from the time when you were a boy?
11080Shall we yield to him?
11080Should we rather call your camp the senate?
11080Should you then, if you had lived in those times, have thought him a hasty or a cruel citizen?
11080Suppose I agree, shall I by so doing countenance the introduction of the practice of canvassing into the senate house?
11080Suppose I vote against it, shall I appear as if I were in the comitia to have refused an honour to a man who is one of my greatest friends?
11080Suppose it be a base thing?
11080Suppose it be a mischievous thing?
11080Suppose it be absolutely unlawful to do it?
11080Suppose that proposition causes delay in the pursuit of Dolabella?
11080Suppose the republic had furnished that excellent man with all its treasures and resources, what good man would have disapproved of it?
11080That is a simple statement which contains in itself one plain question, in this way--"Shall we declare war against the Corinthians, or not?"
11080The others say,"Why should I rather read the translation than the original?"
11080The question in the conjectural examination is the same as that submitted to the judges,"Did he murder him, or not?"
11080The question is,"Whether he had any right to do so?"
11080The question is--"Shall the demurrer be allowed or not?"
11080The question is--"Whether he attacked the majesty of the people or not?"
11080The question to be decided is,"Whether it was one property?"
11080The thing to be inquired into is-- To whom does it rightfully belong?
11080The word_ meridiem_ itself, why is it not_ medidiem_?
11080Then comes,"Nor any fear which an enemy threatens"What then?
11080Those who are desirous to deliver Decimus Brutus from siege?
11080Under what auspices could I, an augur, take those fasces?
11080Under what law did they do so?
11080V. Do you think, then, O Marcus Lepidus, that the Antonii will be to the republic such citizens as she will find Pompeius?
11080V. What reason had he then for endeavouring, with such bitter hostility, to force me into the senate yesterday?
11080Very likely it may be right, but were our ancestors ignorant of all this, or was it usage that gave them this liberty?
11080Was I not to plead against interest acquired not by hopes of virtue, but by the disgrace of youth?
11080Was I not to plead against one with whom I was quite I unconnected, in behalf of an intimate acquaintance, of a dear friend?
11080Was I the instigator whom Lucius Tillius Cimber followed?
11080Was I the only person who was absent?
11080Was he victorious without my assistance?
11080Was it because a tribune of the people announced that there had been an ill- omened flash of lightning seen?
11080Was it possible for men not to form their opinion of each individual as he deserved?
11080Was it that day on which you, having travelled all through the colonies where the veterans were settled, returned escorted by a band of armed men?
11080Was then Hannibal an enemy, and is Antonius a citizen?
11080Was there any one to whom he was more attached?
11080Was this gift, too, O you most audacious of men, found among Caesar''s papers?
11080Well, have they not yielded?
11080Well, need I give any more instances?
11080Well, suppose I did; was I to be the only sorrowful person in the city, when every one else was in such delight?
11080Well?
11080Were any exiles restored?
11080Were any immunities granted?
11080Were these the men to seek counsel from the ancestors of others rather than from their own?
11080Were you at Narbo to be sick over the tables of your entertainers, while Dolabella was fighting your battles in Spain?
11080What Charybdis was ever so voracious?
11080What am I to say is the reason why they forbid us to say_ nôsse, judicâsse_, and enjoin us to use_ novisse_ and_ judicavisse_?
11080What am I to say?
11080What am I to think?
11080What are ruinous counsels?
11080What are we to say if an old primitive picture of few colours delights some men more than this highly finished one?
11080What are we to say of compound words?
11080What are your intentions?
11080What atrocity did Tarquinius ever commit equal to the innumerable acts of the sort which Antonius has done and is still doing?
11080What breath reeking of wine, what insolence, what threatening language do you not think there will be there?
11080What camp is to be chosen for the conference?
11080What can be more different?
11080What can be more foul than that beast?
11080What can be said strong enough for such enormous impudence?
11080What can be the meaning of this argument of yours, O Calenus?
11080What can go beyond this?
11080What can he mean?
11080What can we do?
11080What can we do?
11080What censor was ever so honoured?
11080What could be more foul than this?
11080What council did you consult?
11080What deed was ever more deservedly recommended to the everlasting recollection of men?
11080What defence can be made for such beastly behaviour?
11080What did the one do like an enemy, that the other has not done, or is not doing, or planning, and thinking of?
11080What did the people of Anagnia do?
11080What disposition do you suppose that this man will display towards us whom he hates, when he was so cruel to those men whom he had never seen?
11080What do we promise our soldiers?
11080What do you mean by interposing the veto?
11080What do you think the municipal towns feel?
11080What do you think will be the case when I have gone on a journey, and that too a long one?
11080What do you think will be the feelings of all Italy?
11080What do you think will be the result when such numbers force their way into the city at one time?
11080What else is this than praising Brutus''s secretary, not Brutus?
11080What else then do you think that this man is contriving or wishing, or what other object do you think he has in the war?
11080What else was this but threatening the Roman people with slavery?
11080What else, then, did you do on that day except pronounce Antonius a public enemy?
11080What faith?
11080What for?
11080What good man is there who does not mourn for the death of Trebonius?
11080What good, do I say?
11080What greater discord can there possibly be?
11080What greater honour had he obtained than that of having a holy cushion, an image, a temple, and a priest?
11080What had he to do with the army of Publius Vatinius, our general?
11080What had you seen?
11080What has become of the applauses which he received on the occasion of Caesar''s triumph, and often at the games?
11080What have you to oppose to me, O you eloquent man, as you seem at least to Mustela Tamisius, and to Tiro Numisius?
11080What if it already_ has_ done us harm?
11080What if, as it is said, Ventidius has arrived at Ancona?
11080What is become of the law that such bills should be published on three market days?
11080What is become of the penalty appointed by the recent Junian and Licinian law?
11080What is more shameful than inconsistency, fickleness, and levity, both to individuals, and also to the entire senate?
11080What is the difference?
11080What is the matter?
11080What is the matter?
11080What is the meaning, then, of the eagerness to pass the law which brings with it the greatest possible infamy, and no popularity at all?
11080What is the object, then, of our giving authority to the municipal towns and colonies to exclude Antonius?
11080What is the principle of definition, and what is the system of it?
11080What is the proper arrangement in judicial speeches?
11080What is the use then of waiting, or of even a delay for the very shortest time?
11080What is there in Antonius except lust, and cruelty, and wantonness, and audacity?
11080What is there resembling that case here?
11080What is your aim in a deliberative speech?
11080What is your meaning in this?
11080What juster cause is there for waging war than the wish to repel slavery?
11080What kind of argument is there which is not found in my five books of impeachment of Verres?
11080What lictor was ever so humble, so abject?
11080What men are so clownish as not, when they have once beheld them, to think that they have reaped the greatest enjoyment that life can give?
11080What more adverse decisions, O Marcus Antonius, can you want?
11080What more do you require, O judges when this, and this, and this has been already made plain to you?"
11080What more glorious action was ever done?
11080What more need I say?
11080What more need I say?
11080What more need I say?
11080What more?
11080What more?
11080What more?
11080What more?
11080What more?
11080What more?
11080What need have we, then, of any new determination, if no new circumstances have arisen to call for one?
11080What now are all those armies labouring at, except to effect the release of Decimus Brutus from a siege?
11080What now is the object of this oration?
11080What object was Epaminondas, the Theban general, more bound to aim at than the victory of the Thebans?
11080What of Bestia, who professes that he is a candidate for the consulship in the place of Brutus?
11080What order is that?
11080What order of society, what class of people, what rank of nobles even was there who did not then show their zeal in praising and congratulating you?
11080What peace can be greater than this?
11080What peace can be more assured than this?
11080What peace can there be between Marcus Antonius and( in the first place) the senate?
11080What peace can there be with this man?
11080What place am I to select?
11080What place is there either so deserted or so uncivilized, as not to seem to greet and to covet the presence of those men wherever they have arrived?
11080What reason did you allege to the Roman people why it was desirable that he should be restored?
11080What rules, then, are to be attended to in narration?
11080What says wisdom?
11080What shall I say of the two Servilii?
11080What shall we say if even_ abfugit_ has seemed inadmissible, and if men have discarded_ abfer_ and preferred_ aufer_?
11080What shall we say of Censorinus?
11080What then can be effected by this division of necessity?
11080What then does she think?
11080What then has been the opinion which Decimus Brutus has formed of Marcus Antonius?
11080What then he himself thinks ought to be given to no one, not even by the senate, can I approve of that being conferred by the decision of one man?
11080What then is the meaning of this contempt of theirs for orations translated from the Greek, when they have no objection to translated verses?
11080What then is the object of these comitia?
11080What then?
11080What then?
11080What then?
11080What war is there between you and the Bruti?
11080What was he labouring for, except to remove from himself a groundless suspicion of treachery?
11080What was his crime, except that on the ides of March he withdrew you from the destruction which you had deserved?
11080What was his hope, except to lead that vast army to the city, or rather into the city?
11080What was the difficulty of doing that?
11080What was the first of June that you waited for?
11080What was the resolution of the senate which he was afraid that they would stop by the interposition of their veto?
11080What was there in the whole of the journey of the Antonii; except depopulation, devastation, slaughter, and rapine?
11080What was there to oppose to his audacity and wickedness?
11080What was your rank?
11080What were the circumstances of his return from thence?
11080What were you afraid of?
11080What will be the case if we are not to confer out of the camp?
11080What will he not dare to do when victorious, who, without having gained any victory, has committed such crimes as these since the death of Caesar?
11080What will the man who murdered his friend in this way, when he has an opportunity, do to an enemy?
11080What will you say if it will even do us harm?
11080What, then, are we to do?
11080What, then, is the cause of war, and what is the object aimed at?
11080What, too, shall I call Hirtius?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080What?
11080When did you ever see a decree framed in this manner?
11080When men could not bear him, do you think they will bear you?
11080When was such wickedness ever heard of as existing upon earth?
11080Whence then is this sudden change?
11080Where are the seven hundred millions of sesterces which were entered in the account- books which are in the temple of Ops?
11080Where did the diadem come from?
11080Where do all these come from?
11080Where is the Caecilian and Didian law?
11080Where is the aedileship that was conferred on him by the zealous efforts of all good men?
11080Where would your birth have conducted you?
11080Where would your own good qualities have borne you?
11080Which conduct then is it which shows the more prudent caution chastising wicked citizens when one is able to do so, or fearing them?
11080Which of you does not hate him?
11080While therefore we are admiring his singular prudence, can we at the same time fear his folly?
11080While we are endeavouring to break the bonds of slavery, shall any one hinder us by saying that the veterans do not approve of it?
11080Whither do we order our ambassadors to proceed, if Antonius does not comply?
11080Who are there left then to be delighted with this heavensent allotment?
11080Who can avoid praising such severity as this?
11080Who can think of calling that war?
11080Who do you imagine there is whose blood he is not thirsting for?
11080Who ever heard the voice of the auctioneer?
11080Who ever uses such an expression?
11080Who ever was found in that Janus who would have lent Lucius Antonius a thousand sesterces?
11080Who ever was such a barbarian?
11080Who ever was the patron of all the tribes?
11080Who has been able to look upon his children or upon his wife without weeping?
11080Who has had more practice than I, who have now for twenty years been waging war against impious citizens?
11080Who is either more acute in his conjectures of the future, or more diligent in warding off danger?
11080Who is less so?
11080Who is more fortunate than Lentulus, as I said before, and who is more sensible?
11080Who is there who can possibly deplore such circumstances as their atrocity deserves?
11080Who is there who does not grieve for the loss of such a citizen and such a man?
11080Who then are the veterans whom we are to be fearful of offending?
11080Who then can endure those men who do not agree with such authorities as these?
11080Who then is he?
11080Who then think that he is consul except a few robbers?
11080Who was ever before adopted by that order as its patron?
11080Who was ever so savage?
11080Who would not wonder if you were to go as an ambassador to him?
11080Who, on the other hand, is more profligate than the man who abuses him?
11080Who, then, will undertake to me that Lenti will be content with exacting one life alone?
11080Who?
11080Whom can a defendant employ to propitiate him?
11080Whom did you ever invite to help you?
11080Whom do I extol?
11080Whom will you ever favour?
11080Whose name was there which was not at once made public?
11080Why are not the folding- doors of the temple of Concord open?
11080Why are we not all clad in the praetexta?
11080Why are we permitting the honour which by your law was appointed for Caesar to be deserted?
11080Why are you always defending men who in no point resemble you?
11080Why are your satellites listening to me sword in hand?
11080Why did he write down such words if he did not mean them?
11080Why do I say Hirtius and Pansa?
11080Why do I say my ears?
11080Why do not they who are in similar misfortune enjoy a similar degree of your mercy?
11080Why do you alone attack those men whom we are all bound almost to worship?
11080Why do you bring men of all nations the most barbarous, Ityreans, armed with arrows, into the forum?
11080Why do you treat them as you treated your uncle?
11080Why does he fall in love?
11080Why does the opponent, while he neglects what is plainly written, bring forward what is not written anywhere?
11080Why has the senate been surrounded with a belt of armed men?
11080Why is he so anxious that every one should have what he has bought, if he who sold it all has the price which he received for it?
11080Why is not the public authority thrown into the scale as quickly as possible?
11080Why need I mention his decrees, his robberies, the possessions of inheritances which were given him, and those too which were seized by him?
11080Why need I mention the countless mass of papers, the innumerable autographs which have been brought forward?
11080Why need I mention your preparations for banquets, why your frantic hard- drinking?
11080Why need I say much on such a subject?
11080Why need I speak of Hirtius?
11080Why need I speak of the massacre of Roman citizens?
11080Why need I speak of the other most illustrious men?
11080Why need I speak of the topics used to excite pity?
11080Why on me above all men?
11080Why seeks he wine, And why do you from time to time supply The means for such excess?
11080Why should I now complain of what has been done in the district of Leontini?
11080Why should I speak of Domitius the Apulian?
11080Why should I speak of Lucius Cinna?
11080Why should I speak of Plancus?
11080Why should I speak of the nature of things, the knowledge of which supplies such abundance of topics to oratory?
11080Why should he think that men who were most careful in what they wrote are to be convicted of extreme folly?
11080Why should not those men whose common work the achievement is, have the booty also in common?"
11080Why should you be sad because Dolabella has been pronounced a public enemy?
11080Why should you, then give any precise command or formula, when each is best in its own kind, and when there are many kinds?
11080Why so?
11080Why then do I not wish for peace?
11080Why then do you delay?
11080Why then should we be displeased that the army of Marcus Brutus is thrown into the scale to assist us in overwhelming these pests of the commonwealth?
11080Why then was it that most gallant man, my own colleague and intimate friend, Aulus Hirtius the consul, has set out?
11080Why was the Martial legion?
11080Why were the games of Apollo celebrated with incredible honour to Marcus Brutus?
11080Why, O most ungrateful of men, have you abandoned your office of priest to him?
11080Why, then, do you not favour those men and praise those men whom you wish your own son to resemble?
11080Why, who on earth knows or cares where he is, or what he is doing; or, indeed, whether he is alive or dead?
11080Why?
11080Why?
11080Why?
11080Will any one come to you, unless he be a man like Ventidius?
11080Will he embrace the Roman knights?
11080Will he not again meet wicked men in the decuries?
11080Will it then be possible for you to rely on the certainty of any peace, when you see Antonius, or rather the Antonii, in the city?
11080Will they send one more worthy than Publius Servilius?
11080Will you be glad to produce them?
11080Will you even give them to wicked citizens to take copies of?
11080Will you favour an enemy?
11080Will you furnish a wicked and desperate citizen with an army of Gauls and Germans, with money, and infantry, and cavalry, and all sorts of resources?
11080Will you let him send you letters about his hopes of success?
11080Will you make any reply to these statements?
11080Will you never understand that you have to decide whether those men who performed that action are homicides or assertors of freedom?
11080Will you open your gates to these most infamous brothers?
11080Will you thus damp the hopes and valour of the good?
11080Will you thus raise their courage?
11080With respect to all the things which Caesar was intending to do in the senate on the ides of March, I ask whether you have done anything?
11080With what object?
11080Would Antonius have been a guardian of the city, or its plunderer and destroyer?
11080Would not they also address this complaint to you?
11080XI Who then is that man?
11080You gave your physician three thousand acres; what would you have done if he had cured you?
11080You propose to take the legions away from Brutus-- which legions?
11080You were only claiming your right, but what had that to do with it?
11080You will ask whether I approve of his having a sacred cushion, a temple and a priest?
11080You wise and considerate man, what do you say to this?
11080[ 20] For where can you be safe in peace?
11080[ 29] if so, what insult can be greater?
11080[ 9] How can you prove it in that manner?
11080[ Footnote 49: Compare St Paul,--"For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?"
11080_ C.F._ I understand; and I ask you now what the events are which you have said are produced by such causes?
11080_ Cicero Pat._ Is there anything, my Cicero, which I can be more desirous of than that you should be as learned as possible?
11080_ Will_ do us harm?
11080and at that sight of the two tribunes of the people who are opposed to you?
11080and do you think that those men were instigated by my authority rather than by their affection for the republic?
11080and has introduced armed men into the temple of Concord when he was holding a senate there?
11080and if he did such a thing as this for the fun of the thing, what do you think he will do when tempted by the hope of plunder?
11080and of that great haste?
11080and of the Roman knights?
11080and of the military tribunes?
11080and out of doors rather than at home?
11080and that you should love with the greatest constancy those whom every one else hates most bitterly?
11080and that you yourself submitted a motion to the people, that a fifth day should be added besides, in honour of Caesar?
11080and the colonies?
11080and to be the first man in this body to deliver his opinion, until he entered on his magistracy?
11080and to celebrate a triumph?
11080and to depart from thence in safety?
11080and to return home himself?
11080and to show your most profligate countenance to the household gods who protect that abode?
11080and two thousand to your master of oratory; what would you have done if he had been able to make you eloquent?
11080and what instance was it not of moderation to complain of the conduct of Marcus Antonius, and yet to abstain from any abusive expressions?
11080and when you did so, not once only, but repeatedly?
11080and while they are coming back again?
11080and who, with armed troops and guards, has excluded both the people and the magistrates from the forum?
11080and whose name has been concealed who was in the number of that gallant band?
11080and,"Whether that was the reason why he did so?"
11080any one with whom he conversed or shared his counsels more frequently?
11080are not all the laws of Caesar respecting judicial proceedings abrogated by the law which has been proposed concerning the third decury?
11080are those enormous profits to be endured which the household of Marcus Antonius has swallowed up?
11080as if the object aimed at were to enable any one to appeal?
11080by my handwriting?
11080can he be afraid that any one of his friends may be convicted by Cydas, or Lysiades, or Curius?
11080could it be passed with a proper regard for the auspices?
11080did that most gallant man speak so long and so precisely a little while ago without any reason?
11080do you suppose that the municipal towns, and the colonies, and the prefectures have any other opinion?
11080especially when all the protection which we might have had from good men is lost, and when those men are prepared to obey his nod?
11080for I imagine that Trebellius has taken this surname, what can be greater confidence than defrauding one''s creditors?
11080for how can those men, to whom the safety of Brutus is dear, hate the name of Cassius?
11080for if he did these things when flying, what would he have done when he was pursuing?
11080for what name is more fit for you?
11080for what of all these things can be either spoken of or understood without a long study of those matters?
11080has emptied his well filled house?
11080has he ever touched the public money, or murdered a man, or had armed men about him?
11080has pillaged his gardens?
11080has sought to make his death a pretext for slaughter and conflagration?
11080has the Roman people adopted this law?--What?
11080has transferred to his own mansion all their ornaments?
11080have I not at all times extolled Decimus Brutus whenever I have delivered my opinion at all?
11080have we no regard for the opinion of the veterans?
11080he whose death the senate and Roman people wish to avenge, or he who has been adjudged an enemy by the unanimous vote of the senate?
11080how the Roman people is on tiptoe with the hope of recovering its liberty?
11080in order to have great fears for their return?
11080is fear usually threatened by a friend?
11080is the object of always opposing the name of the veterans to every good cause?
11080is there any one of you who does not belong to a tribe?
11080is this the opinion of those veteran soldiers, to whom as yet either course is open?"
11080more deserving of every sort of punishment?
11080more shameful than this?
11080not killing me at Brundusium?
11080of expelling Decimus Caifulenus, a man thoroughly attached to the republic, from the senate by violence and threats of death?
11080of our authorizing soldiers to be enlisted without any force, without the terror of any fine, of their own inclination and eagerness?
11080of permitting them to promise money for the assistance of the republic?
11080of the plunder of temples?
11080or can we doubt which of the two is most miserable?
11080or even at the time when you were elected, could you have got the votes of one single tribe without the aid of Curio?
11080or has he, who gave that present to his slave on that account taken any obligations on himself?"
11080or how to soften what is harsh, and to conceal what can not be denied, and, if it be possible, entirely to get rid of all such topics?
11080or in my speech for Avitus?
11080or in that for Cornelius?
11080or in the other numerous speeches in defence of different men?
11080or of life, and duty, and virtue, and manners?
11080or of the extraordinary applause at the sight of the statue of Pompeius?
11080or of the verses made by the people?
11080or should I collect all the other ruined men of that band of robbers?
11080or should I rather praise the Antonii, the disgrace and infamy not only of their own families, but of the Roman name?
11080or should I speak in favour of Censorenus, an enemy in time of war, an assassin in time of peace?
11080or should you have thought Quintus Metellus one, whose four sons were all men of consular rank?
11080or such open infamy?
11080or such shamelessness?
11080or what does it signify whether I wished it to be done, or rejoice that it has been done?
11080or what judge will be bold enough to venture to condemn a criminal, knowing that he will immediately be dragged before a gang of hireling operatives?
11080or what severer punishment has ever been he himself was unable to perform?
11080or when was the Roman people more delighted?
11080or will you employ the same uninterrupted vehemence in the same causes without any alteration?
11080or with Illyricum?
11080or, is it possible that any one should be found more friendly to the cause than his son?
11080or, was it possible for that man long to continue unlike himself?
11080says he, what are all these sanctions of religion which you are talking about?
11080so brutal?
11080than flying from one''s house?
11080than, because of one''s debts, being forced to go to war?
11080that I have been despised?
11080that Trebonius was wicked?
11080that he should enter the city as often as he pleased?
11080that was otherwise than friendly?
11080that was otherwise than moderate?
11080that which was excluded from the forum?
11080that you should hate those men whom every one else considers most dear?
11080those which relate to the recovery of the liberty of the Roman people?
11080to be a slave?
11080to be eager to attack Mutina?
11080to besiege Brutus?
11080to read them?
11080to whom was I to deliver them as my successor?
11080under that which has been wholly abrogated by violence and arms?
11080was ever achieved not only in this city, but in all the earth?
11080was it ever regularly promulgated?
11080was it not passed before it was even drawn up?
11080was not the judicature open to that order by the Julian law, and even before that by the Pompeian and Aurelian laws?
11080what business had he with Dyrrachium?
11080what can be your intention?
11080what do you think of those men who are besieging Mutina, who are levying troops in Gaul, who are threatening your fortunes?
11080what good can our embassy do to the republic?
11080what had you heard?
11080what had you perceived?
11080what imperator?
11080what more savage?
11080what resolutions you have given utterance to against those men?
11080what shall we say if Caesar even wrote you that you were to give it up?
11080what sort of return was it?
11080what would be done if he were to come to life again, by?--"By whom?
11080when it does not seem that there is even any punishment which the Roman people can think adequate to his crimes?
11080when we have laid aside our arms and they have not laid aside theirs?
11080when you decreed that the consuls, one or both of them, should go to the war, what war was there if Antonius was not an enemy?
11080where are the habits and virtues of our forefathers?
11080where have we among our youth a more illustrious example of the old- fashioned strictness?
11080which of you does not he hate?
11080who endeavoured to come to Rome with his army to accomplish our massacre and the utter destruction of the city?
11080who ever saw any notice of that auction?
11080who has been able to bear the sight of his home, of his house, and his household gods?
11080who has filled the senate with armed men?
11080who has imposed laws on the Roman people?
11080who has put up exemptions and annuities to sale?
11080who has released cities from obligations?
11080who has removed whole provinces from subjection to the Roman empire?
11080who has restored exiles?
11080who is attacking Brutus?
11080who is besieging Mutina?
11080who is more modest?
11080who is there who does not now think that he acted virtuously by accident?
11080who ran down to Brundusium to meet the legions, and then murdered all the centurions in them who were well affected to the republic?
11080who was there who did not grieve that he was so late in finding out how worthless a man he had been following?
11080who was there who did not know that she had come so many days''journey to congratulate you?
11080who was there, who did not give in his name?
11080who will be able to support this man''s power?
11080who, as far as words go, said indeed that he wished to be the city praetor, but who, in fact, was unwilling to be so?
11080who, on whose possessions and fortunes he is not fixing his most impudent eyes, his hopes, and his whole heart?
11080who, when deserted by them, has invaded Gaul with a troop of banditti?
11080why am I compelled to find fault with the senate whom I have always praised?
11080why are not you inaugurated?
11080why are we to make their arrogance of such importance as to choose our generals with reference to their pleasure?
11080why are we to yield so much to their haughtiness?
11080why should he do so, any more than I should claim it of him?
11080why was the fourth legion praised?
11080why was the number of their lieutenants augmented?
11080why were provinces given to Brutus and Cassius?
11080why were quaestors assigned to them?
11080will Antonius ever maintain peace with them?
11080will he allow himself to be confined by the river Rubicon and by the limit of two hundred miles?
11080will he not again seek those who have been banished?
11080will he not again tamper with those men who have received lands?
11080will he not, in short, be Marcus Antonius; to whom, on the occasion of every commotion, there will be a rush of all profligate citizens?
11080will he obey this notice?
11080will they ever be friends to you, or you to them?
11080will you dare to open your mouth at all?
11080will you ever admit them into the city?
11080with Censorinus, and Ventidius, and Trebellius, and Bestia, and Nucula, and Munatius, and Lento, and Saxa?
11080with what face do you do this?
11080with what face will he be able to look upon you, and with what eyes will you, in turn, look upon him?
11080would he make a truce?
8689And why remain sitting on this tomb, wrapped in this long veil, oh, stranger lady? 8689 And you, what is your name?
8689Are you Grecian or born in this country?
8689But what do I behold? 8689 Do you propose to prevent me from taking my wife, the daughter of Tyndareus, to Sparta?"
8689Is Proteus in these parts?
8689Of what Proteus?
8689To what master does this splendid palace belong? 8689 What are you saying?
8689What is this shore whither the wind has driven our boat?
8689Where are you going?
8689Who is the old woman who reviles you, stranger lady?
8689Who knows if living be not dying,[536] if breathing be not feasting, if sleep be not a fleece? 8689 Who loiters at the door of the vestibule?
8689Why is it necessary that Andromeda should have all the woes for her share?
8689Why shameful, if the spectators do not think so? 8689 [ 518] Do you note the harmonious rhythm?
8689[ 581] Is a maiden unwell? 8689 ''Tis not merely for the present that I am frightened; but when I have eaten, where is it to find an outlet now? 8689 ''[ 554] Whence comes this effeminate? 8689 ''tis a bird, but of what kind? 8689 (_ To Cario._) But tell me, where is Plutus now? 8689 (_ To Philocleon._) But you have not finished? 8689 (_ To the Triballian._) What do you say? 8689 --Are you a peacock? 8689 ... Have I mentioned the woman who killed her husband with a hatchet? 8689 ... to be pedicated? 8689 ... who buried her father beneath the bath? 8689 A blunder? 8689 A just man then? 8689 A long time? 8689 A man? 8689 A merchant? 8689 A rat? 8689 A shrimp or a spider? 8689 A torch? 8689 A young boy, then? 8689 A young maiden, beautiful as the immortals, chained to this rock like a vessel in port?
8689About the door?
8689Accuses me of what?
8689Aeschylus, why do you keep silent?
8689All?
8689Am I awake?
8689Am I bound to dispute with this fellow?
8689Am I mad?
8689Am I not truly unfortunate?
8689Am I to buy it of him?
8689Among us, when we see a thoughtless man, we ask,"What sort of bird is this?"
8689Amynon?
8689And Agathon?
8689And I get nothing whatever of the paternal property?
8689And I, what am I to do?
8689And I?
8689And Pythangelus?
8689And Xenocles?
8689And a short mantle?
8689And are you looking for a greater city than Athens?
8689And because I have uttered what I thought right in favour of Euripides, do you want to depilate me for my trouble?
8689And by what means will these slaves be got?
8689And by what right, pray?
8689And ca n''t you see Gusistraté, the tavern- keeper''s wife, with a lamp in her hand, and the wives of Philodoretus and Chaeretades?
8689And did he not do this every night?
8689And did he not get stoned?
8689And did not the god come?
8689And did you not lose your crow, when you fell sprawling on the ground?
8689And do n''t you know the decrees that have been voted?
8689And do you remember that about the copper coinage?
8689And does not divine Homer owe his immortal glory to his noble teachings?
8689And does the author of such rubbish dare to criticize my songs?
8689And everything that used to be the men''s concern has been given over to the women?
8689And had Aeschylus not his friends too?
8689And have you not done me the most deadly injury by seeking to banish me from every country?
8689And have you not heard what a dandy Phrynichus was[558] and how careful in his dress?
8689And his?
8689And how about my eyes?
8689And how about the man who has no land, but only gold and silver coins, that can not be seen?
8689And how are we to give them health, which belongs to the gods?
8689And how can you give a man wings with your words?
8689And how did you teach them this bravery?
8689And how do you think to escape them?
8689And how has this law disturbed Aeschylus?
8689And how is he going to manage that?
8689And how is that to be crossed?
8689And how shall we give wealth to mankind?
8689And how should you be able to do that, you, who are but a mortal?
8689And how so, pray?
8689And how so?
8689And how?
8689And if I do decide?
8689And if it does?
8689And if the blear- eyed Neoclides[672] comes to insult you?
8689And if the women have you beaten?
8689And if they fly at you?
8689And if they laugh you in the face?
8689And if we are not able?
8689And if you have failed in this duty, if out of honest and pure- minded men you have made rogues, what punishment do you think is your meet?
8689And in truth am I not really bound?
8689And is he not doing this now by leaving you to grope your wandering way?
8689And is it not harder for me to wear myself out with rowing?
8689And it has a brazen leg?
8689And it was voted?
8689And my shoes and staff, those too went off with you?
8689And now recall to me what are the advantages you enjoy, you, who pretend to rule over Greece?
8689And of the needle- seller''s[749] with Pamphilus?
8689And over yonder?
8689And perhaps Callimachus[709] is going to take in more money than Callias owns?
8689And she who carries the child?
8689And tell me, is it not you who equip the triremes?
8689And that Laïs is kept by Philonides?
8689And that Philepsius[751] rolls off his fables?
8689And that is?
8689And the belt?
8689And the citizen whom the lot has not given a letter showing where he is to dine will be driven off by everyone?
8689And the old man, where is he?
8689And then?
8689And then?
8689And then?
8689And then?
8689And there, on the other side, surely that is a girl''s bottom?
8689And they are?
8689And this footwear?
8689And this other one, what bird is it?
8689And was not such daring deserving of death?
8689And what about the object of my coming?
8689And what am I to do?
8689And what can I do for you in the matter?
8689And what desire is it, little brother?
8689And what did he say to that?
8689And what did he say?
8689And what did the god do?
8689And what do you propose to do, Aeschylus?
8689And what do you think will ensure their happiness?
8689And what do you want with him?
8689And what does it think about it?
8689And what does the crow say about the road to follow?
8689And what fate has led them hither to the land of the birds?
8689And what for?
8689And what for?
8689And what good is that, if he eats the cheese?
8689And what if they prove the stronger?
8689And what if they sell them for you?
8689And what immortal would protect you for your crime?
8689And what impels you to make these overtures?
8689And what is he to do there?
8689And what is that black part in the middle?
8689And what is the cause of that, pray?
8689And what is the name of these gods?
8689And what is to become of me, poor unfortunate man?
8689And what of the Corinthian courtesans?
8689And what other road can the gods travel?
8689And what say you?
8689And what then shall be done with these shoes?
8689And what was decided?
8689And what will the speaker''s platform be used for?
8689And what will the suit be about?
8689And what will you do with the urns?
8689And what''s it all about?
8689And when Theorus, prone at Cleon''s feet, takes his hand and sings,"Like Admetus, love those who are brave,"[142] what reply will you make him?
8689And when did you compose them?
8689And when we bestow our favours on slaves and muleteers for want of better, does he mention this?
8689And when you are listening to what your masters are saying?
8689And when you go off grumbling, after having been well thrashed?
8689And when you make yourself important?
8689And when you repeat it to strangers?
8689And when you talk to us of towering mountains-- Lycabettus and of the frowning Parnes[493]--is that teaching us what is good?
8689And where are you going to, since you have not deposited your belongings?
8689And where does the rest go then?
8689And where is he?
8689And where is your cloak?
8689And where will the meals be served?
8689And where would your offering be better bestowed than on the shoulders of a rascal and a thief?
8689And which prologue are you going to examine?
8689And which way does it tell us to go now?
8689And whither has the poor fellow gone?
8689And who are you whom my misfortunes have moved to pity?
8689And who are you?
8689And who avers the contrary?
8689And who built such a wall?
8689And who carried the mortar?
8689And who feed our mercenaries at Corinth?
8689And who gives it to him?
8689And who has it now?
8689And who is it brings an owl to Athens?
8689And who is the prosecutor before the dicasts?
8689And who was the first one you met?
8689And who was the thief?
8689And who will be the judge?
8689And why change it, you great fool?
8689And why did you not ask your wife for it?
8689And why did you not take your mantle?
8689And why do you place yourself at the window?
8689And why libations, why so many ceremonies, if wine plays no part in them?
8689And why, pray, does it draggle this fashion?
8689And why?
8689And with what intent?
8689And with what responding tones did the sacred tripod resound?
8689And yet can anyone style himself your benefactor, when he does not cast a morsel to your poor dog?
8689And yet we listen to such things?
8689And yet what is the use of being rich, if you are to be deprived of all these enjoyments?
8689And you are seasoning them before answering us?
8689And you are stupid enough not to understand the meaning of such an answer?
8689And you dare to look me in the face after such a shameful deed?
8689And you did not tremble at the sound of his threatening words?
8689And you do n''t send him to us, to your friends?
8689And you were quickly ruined?
8689And you will repeat them?
8689And you wish to dedicate them too?
8689And you yourself, who are you?
8689And you, how do you form your prologues?
8689And you, what have you to say?
8689And you, what is your opinion?
8689And you, what''s your opinion?
8689And you?
8689And you?
8689Aphrodité, why dost thou fire me with such delight in her?
8689Are not you the cause of Pamphilus''sufferings?
8689Are the sandals there?
8689Are there others then?
8689Are these not our everyday tricks?
8689Are these the mighty benefits with which you pretend to load mankind?
8689Are they hoping with our help to triumph over their foes or to be useful to their friends?
8689Are they mad?
8689Are they not our most mortal foes?
8689Are they the just?
8689Are two men to fly from a woman?
8689Are we going to banquet?
8689Are we going to war about a woman?
8689Are we in a condition to show fight?
8689Are wolves to be spared?
8689Are you a husbandman?
8689Are you a woman?
8689Are you an ape plastered with white lead, or the ghost of some old hag returned from the dark borderlands of death?
8689Are you asking for the old woman who carried the lyre?
8689Are you asleep?
8689Are you calling me?
8689Are you chaffing me about my feathers?
8689Are you dicasts?
8689Are you distraught, as if you had just returned from Pluto?
8689Are you going to talk of cats and rats among high- class people?
8689Are you knocking?
8689Are you mad, I ask you?
8689Are you mad?
8689Are you mad?
8689Are you mad?
8689Are you mad?
8689Are you mocking me?
8689Are you mocking me?
8689Are you moving or are you going to pawn your stuff?
8689Are you never going to be done?
8689Are you not astonished at the wall being completed so quickly?
8689Are you really going to carry them in?
8689Are you so stupid, such a fool?
8689Are you telling me the truth?
8689As to power, am I not equal to the king of the gods?
8689Assuredly, my child, but tell me what nice thing do you want me to buy you?
8689At what, then?
8689Aye, which?
8689Because I obey the law?
8689Because he has known and shown up two or three of our faults, when we have a thousand?
8689Before I lose my spleen entirely, Euripides, can you at least tell me whither you are leading me?
8689Before drinking?
8689Before having laid it down?
8689Besides, friend, why should there be lawsuits?
8689But am I not carrying it?
8689But am I not the most unfortunate of men?
8689But answer me; are you the mother of this brat?
8689But come, what is it like to live with the birds?
8689But could I judge as well with my mouth full?
8689But do you deem it fitting to make us run like this before ever telling us why your master has called us?
8689But do you see all those hooked claws?
8689But first say, who will sell them, if everyone is rich?
8689But has the Assembly taken place then?
8689But how am I to work two oars at once?
8689But how are we going to lift up our arm[675] in the Assembly, we, who only know how to lift our legs in the act of love?
8689But how are you going to get out of the mess?
8689But how can they be gathered together?
8689But how could they put the mortar into hods?
8689But how could we employ you here?
8689But how could you see all this, you arch- rascal, when you say you were hiding all the time?
8689But how do the Corinthians concern me?
8689But how do you mean for all?
8689But how shall we obtain clothing?
8689But how will mankind recognize us as gods and not as jays?
8689But how would a man fail to be recognized amongst women?
8689But how?
8689But however has it got as far as that?
8689But if Cephalus[670] belches forth insults against you, what answer will you give him in the Assembly?
8689But if a fellow- citizen, a friend, came to pay my ransom?
8689But if admission is forbidden you?
8689But if these notice it and want to fish me up and drag me back into the house, what will you do?
8689But if we are truly such a pest, why marry us?
8689But if we live in this fashion, how will each one know his children?
8689But if you kill me at the outset, how shall I afterwards go to find this beautiful girl of mine?
8689But if you lose your case, what punishment will you submit to?
8689But is it not the folk who rob most that have all these things?
8689But just look at this tool; is that like a woman?
8689But may I not enter an excuse?
8689But might she not stop with me?
8689But now your name, what is it?"
8689But tell me, friends, where is my mistress''s husband?
8689But tell me, has your father had you entered on the registers of his phratria?
8689But tell me, whence come you to be so squalid?
8689But tell me, where are you flying to?
8689But tell me, who are you?
8689But tell me, why do the people admire me?
8689But we are rich; why should we keep a haggling Hermes?
8689But we old men, shall we have penis enough if we have to satisfy the ugly first?
8689But what are all these birds doing in heaven?
8689But what can have attracted such a crowd at that early hour?
8689But what did you want with a cock in tragedy?
8689But what do all these insults betoken?
8689But what do you want to do with me?
8689But what does this mean?
8689But what god shall be its patron?
8689But what if my father wished to give me his property on his death- bed, even though I be a bastard?
8689But what if they do n''t?
8689But what is he driving at?
8689But what is there to judge?
8689But what is your name?
8689But what kind of life is it you propose to set up?
8689But what matter brings you here?
8689But what need of a lyre in his case?
8689But what object can have induced you to come among us?
8689But what prevents your going there?
8689But what sort of city should we build?
8689But what sweet hope is this that sets my heart a- throb?
8689But what was your dream?
8689But what weapons have we?
8689But what will you say of it, if he should triumph in the debate?
8689But what would you?
8689But what?
8689But where am I to find one-- where?
8689But where can a place be found for hearing well?
8689But where do you hail from?
8689But where shall I go?
8689But where shall we be buried, if we die?
8689But where shall we find orators in an Assembly of women?
8689But where will the lender get the money to lend, if all is in common?
8689But where, pray, did you learn all these pretty things?
8689But where?
8689But which one then?
8689But who are you, pray?
8689But who are you?
8689But who could listen to such words without exclaiming?
8689But who will do the work?
8689But whom has he thus ill- used?
8689But why do you tarry, Blepyrus?
8689But why does he want to treat us in that scurvy fashion?
8689But why is that?
8689But why not go and defend yourself?
8689But why this cock?
8689But why, if he is Cleonymus, has he not thrown away his crest?
8689But why, pray, since you also claim to be a god, should you not be beaten like myself?
8689But will you pay the debt?
8689But with what object now do you bring this old cloak, which your slave is carrying?
8689But would you not prefer to live quietly and free from all care and anxiety?
8689But you, you foe of the gods, what have you done that is so good?
8689But your infirmity; how did that happen?
8689But, after all, what sort of city would please you best?
8689But, cursed man, what harm have my Sthenoboeas done to Athens?
8689But, father, if the Archon[47] should not form a court to- day, how are we to buy our dinner?
8689But, great gods, what am I to think?
8689But, great gods, what is the matter then?
8689But, poet, what ill wind drove you here?
8689But, poor fellow, what is his aim?
8689But, tell me, who did the woodwork?
8689But_ anyhow_, what if they do n''t?
8689By Posidon, do you see that many- coloured bird?
8689By which gate did you pass through the wall, wretched woman?
8689By which gate?
8689By which of his pieces does he set most store?
8689Can I be the son of Alcmena, I, a slave and a mortal?
8689Can anyone direct me where Chremylus is?
8689Can anyone keep such a dog?
8689Can anything better be conceived for the public weal?
8689Can it be Cinesias[680] who has befouled you so?
8689Can it be I am treated thus?
8689Can not you keep still then, fellow, once you get a whiff of a bit of tripe?
8689Can some friend have invited her to a feast?
8689Can they be bearing us ill- will?
8689Can you be a female informer?
8689Can you have any other lover than that old fop Geres?
8689Can you remember that name?
8689Can you see any bird?
8689Can you see any god behind me?
8689Can you smell anything, rascal?
8689Clever men?
8689Come now, what must be done?
8689Concerning what?
8689Could I not sell it just as well?
8689Could we do anything worse than leave the god in the lurch and fly before this woman without so much as ever offering to fight?
8689Could you do mankind a greater harm?
8689Could you find your country again from here?
8689Could you not have told me?
8689Could you tell us where Pluto dwells?
8689Cruel wretch, will you leave me pitilessly among the dead?
8689Cursed beast, what are you croaking to me?...
8689D''ye see?
8689D''ye take me for a fool?
8689D''you hear him?
8689D''you know what you look like?
8689D''you know you have made us lose a_ sextary_ of wheat, which I should have bought with the_ triobolus_ of the Assembly?
8689D''you see?
8689Dancing wenches?
8689Dare you reply, you scoundrels, you who are caught red- handed at the most horrible crime?
8689Dear old men, am I near the house where the new god lives, or have I missed the road?
8689Did I not tell you of it yesterday?
8689Did I not tell you, you were going to plague me?
8689Did it hurt you?
8689Did you fight?
8689Did you get one?
8689Did you get the triobolus?
8689Did you notice?
8689Did you present yourself to the officers in command of the jays?
8689Did you see the parricides and the perjured he told us of?
8689Did you?
8689Do I look like a coward of your kidney?
8689Do n''t you hear?
8689Do n''t you know the cawing crow lives five times as long as a man?
8689Do n''t you know what sort of an animal we are guarding here?
8689Do n''t you know?
8689Do n''t you propose taking what belongs to you to the common stock?
8689Do n''t you remember the one reducing the price of salt, eh?
8689Do n''t you see Melisticé, the wife of Smicythion, hurrying hither in her great shoes?
8689Do n''t you see that a single kite could easily carry off the lot at once?
8689Do n''t you take your share of those offerings?
8689Do what?
8689Do you conceive my bent?
8689Do you deem me so brazen as all that, and my words mere lies?
8689Do you forget, then, how I used to take care he knew nothing about it when you were stealing something from your master?
8689Do you hear?
8689Do you insult me thus before this crowd?
8689Do you know a certain individual at Cothocidae[599]...?
8689Do you know how dearly I should like to split her legs for her?
8689Do you know this woman?
8689Do you know what to do?
8689Do you like Nephelococcygia?
8689Do you not see it is of several different colours?
8689Do you note it?
8689Do you ply any trade?
8689Do you pretend to be a man?
8689Do you recall that evening when you stooled against the column where the decrees are posted?
8689Do you refuse these gifts?
8689Do you see how opportunely I got you away from the solicitations of those fellows, who wanted to make you work their tools in your mouth?
8689Do you see that little door?
8689Do you see the stupid thing?
8689Do you see them, master?
8689Do you see what lawsuits you are drawing upon yourself with your drunkenness?
8689Do you see yourself?
8689Do you take me for a Lydian or a Phrygian[322] and think to frighten me with your big words?
8689Do you take me or shall I explain myself in some other way?
8689Do you think it is doing me no harm to restore Plutus to the use of his eyes?
8689Do you think that is honest?
8689Do you think twenty deaths a sufficiently large stake?
8689Do you understand?
8689Do you understand?
8689Do you want any more?
8689Do you want me to die of hunger?
8689Do you want me to tell you a very steep road, one that descends very quickly?
8689Do you want some other drollery?
8689Do you want to beat in the door?
8689Do you want to dethrone your own father?
8689Do you want to fight it?
8689Do you want to fly straight to Pellené?
8689Do you want to see yourself?
8689Do you want us to fling ourselves headlong down these rocks?
8689Does a bird need a servant, then?
8689Does he mean to say that Hermes had watched, only that Agamemnon should perish at the hands of a woman and be the victim of a criminal intrigue?
8689Does he not repeat that we are all vice, that we are the curse of our husbands?
8689Does he not resemble a she- ass to the life?
8689Does he not say she must be given to the swallows?
8689Does he not style us gay, lecherous, drunken, traitorous, boastful?
8689Does it come from Marathon or have you picked it out of some labourer''s chanty?
8689Does it not seem that everything is extravagance in the world, or rather madness, when you watch the way things go?
8689Does it suit me?
8689Does not everything depend on wealth?
8689Does the son of Pisias want to betray the gates of the city to the foe?
8689Doubtless the god pulled a wry face?
8689Dressed in a long robe?
8689Drive me out?
8689During the Assembly, wretched woman?
8689During the sacrifice?
8689Eh, what''s the matter, child?
8689Euripides said,"Why is is shameful, if the spectators, who enjoy it, do not think so?"
8689Far better, are they not?
8689Father, would you give me something if I asked for it?
8689Firstly, who is this?
8689For instance, what is the origin of the power that Zeus wields over the other gods?
8689For outrage?
8689From what country?
8689From what country?
8689From whom will they take them?
8689From whom?
8689Gather songs in the clouds?
8689Go down to hell?
8689Good gods, where_ is_ your heart?
8689Had any other folk come to beseech the deity?
8689Had we not better confer together and come to some understanding?
8689Has he lost his shoes?
8689Has he not hit us enough, calumniated us sufficiently, wherever there are spectators, tragedians, and a chorus?
8689Has it seen the feast of cups thrice or four times?
8689Have I told how you attributed to yourself the male child your slave had just borne and gave her your little daughter?
8689Have these birds come to contend for the double stadium prize?
8689Have we not the right to speak frankly at this gathering?
8689Have you a permit, bearing the seal of the storks?
8689Have you ever been suddenly seized with a desire for pea- soup?
8689Have you no Greek town you can propose to us?
8689Have you not drunk up your money then?
8689Have you not said in one of your pieces,"You love to see the light, and do n''t you believe your father loves it too?
8689Have you really grown rich as they say?
8689Have you some good hope to offer us or merely"Hellé''s sacred waves"?
8689Have you the beards that we had all to get ourselves for the Assembly?
8689Have you then stolen so much as all that?
8689Have you ulcers to hide like Laespodias?
8689He has a big beard?
8689He has indeed sold us this jay, a true son of Tharelides,[178] for an obolus, and this crow for three, but what can they do?
8689He must then be a pretty coarse kind of god?
8689He was a man and now he has suddenly become a crow; does it not foretoken that he will take his flight from here and go to the crows?
8689He, however, shouted louder than they all, and looking at them asked,"Why, what ought I to have done?"
8689How I frightened him?
8689How can one and the same animal have cast away his buckler both on land, in the sky and at sea?
8689How can one say he was fortunate at first?
8689How can tragedy be weighed?
8689How can we fail then to be mistaken for men?
8689How can you claim to be carrying it, when you are carried?
8689How can you, a slave and a mortal, be the son of Alcmena?
8689How could I use this power, which you say I have?
8689How creative?
8689How dare you talk like this, you impudent hussy?
8689How do the dwellers in these parts knock?
8689How do you mean?
8689How does that concern you, friend?
8689How is that?
8689How is that?
8689How is that?
8689How is this?
8689How laughable?
8689How long since?
8689How much does it hold?
8689How must I recline?
8689How old is it?
8689How so?
8689How so?
8689How so?
8689How their pole?
8689How then?
8689How twice over?
8689How will they get at it?
8689How will you be able to cry when once your eyes are pecked out?
8689How, in the gods''name?
8689How, pray?
8689How?
8689I alone?
8689I alone?
8689I am not astonished at these outbursts of fiery rage; how could your bile not get inflamed against Euripides, who has spoken so ill of you?
8689I begin, but where is he with the basket?
8689I can do so many things by myself and unaided?
8689I cowardly?
8689I have not the right to dedicate myself entirely to my country''s service?
8689I mightier than he?
8689I remember that well enough, but what connection is there with present circumstances?
8689I say, Epops, you are not the only one of your kind then?
8689I shall no longer have to tire myself out with work from daybreak onwards?
8689I, who have never set foot on a ship?
8689I?
8689I?
8689I?
8689I?
8689I?
8689If sacrifices are offered to him, is not Plutus their cause?
8689If the archers drag you away, what will you do?
8689If there were no barbarian gods, who would be the patron of Execestides?
8689If they are happy, is not that the chief thing towards health?
8689In the name of the gods, who are you?
8689In what manner shall I put him to the question?
8689In what way distinct?
8689In what way?
8689In what way?
8689In what way?
8689Indeed, and what are their plans?
8689Indeed?
8689Indeed?
8689Indoors?
8689Is Iophon[396] dead then?
8689Is a woman weaving a garland for herself?
8689Is all that there?
8689Is all that there?
8689Is beggary not Poverty''s sister?
8689Is he dispersing the clouds or gathering them?
8689Is he really acquitted?
8689Is he then really blind?
8689Is it I you seek?
8689Is it a procession that you are starting off to the public crier, Hiero?
8689Is it a question of feasting?
8689Is it absolutely necessary?
8689Is it actual, downright madness?
8689Is it already over then?
8689Is it in Nephelococcygia that all the wealth of Theogenes[271] and most of Aeschines''[272] is?
8689Is it no later than that?
8689Is it not because of you that Agyrrhius[750] lets wind so loudly?
8689Is it not evident to the blind, that nowadays to do nothing that is right is the best way to get on?
8689Is it not he who draws the citizens to the Assembly?
8689Is it not he who lends the Great King all his pride?
8689Is it not he who taught the warlike virtues, the art of fighting and of carrying arms?
8689Is it not laughable?
8689Is it not said, that the cleverest speakers are those who submit themselves oftenest to men?
8689Is it not said, that the dicasts, when deceived by lying witnesses, have need to ruminate well in order to arrive at the truth?
8689Is it not the most priceless gift of all, to be winged?
8689Is it not the worst of all slaveries to see all these wretches and their flatterers, whom they gorge with gold, at the head of affairs?
8689Is it possible that the gods have chosen such an envoy?
8689Is it the fall of day?
8689Is it the one which Thrasybulus spoke about to the Lacedaemonians?
8689Is n''t it a peacock?
8689Is not Orestes speaking in this fashion before his father''s tomb?
8689Is not old age filled with cruel ills?
8689Is not this great power indeed, which allows even wealth to be disdained?
8689Is that cursed rascal putting on airs?
8689Is that enough?
8689Is that kind of seed sown among you?
8689Is that not my neighbour Blepyrus?
8689Is that not the first duty of an honest man?
8689Is that the kind of thing that pleases you?
8689Is the country served by vile intrigue?
8689Is the old man at it again, escaping through some loophole?
8689Is the swallow in sight?
8689Is there a being who lives more in the midst of delights, who is more feared, aged though he be?
8689Is there a man of sense who will do such a thing?
8689Is there a pleasure, a blessing comparable with that of a juryman?
8689Is there a single word to condemn in that?
8689Is there a slave who has done something wrong?
8689Is there another glutton besides Cleonymus?
8689Is there no chance of sharing?
8689Is there no one has any spirit at all?
8689Is there not a crowd of other little lads, who produce tragedies by the thousand and are a thousand times more loquacious than Euripides?
8689Is there one?
8689Is there sedition in your city?
8689Is there some man following us?
8689Is there_ not_ one?
8689Is this a torch?
8689Is this doing you harm, that we shower blessings on all men?
8689Is this not a fine one?
8689Is this not opposed to all good sense?
8689Is this the first urn?
8689Is this the rascal of whom Clisthenes told us?
8689Is''t very heavy?
8689Is_ he_ in the plot then?
8689It is a long time, then, since he saw you?
8689Keep my courage, when I''m being burnt up?
8689Keep silent before this fellow?
8689Let a doctor be fetched; but which is the cleverest in this branch of the science?
8689Let me see, what is the best road to show you?
8689Let me see, whom could I best send to him?
8689Let''s see, have you ever been here before?
8689Like this?
8689May I not at least say, that unless I am relieved of this cursed load I shall let wind?
8689Might it be the tavern- keeper in my neighbourhood, who is always cheating me in measure?
8689Might it be"the Aether, the dwelling of Zeus,"or"the wing of Time"?
8689Might you then have had dealings with Clisthenes?
8689Must I knock again?
8689Must the laws not be obeyed then?
8689Must they die in early youth?
8689Must we not go and seek a physician?
8689My best feat?
8689My good fellow, what has happened to your friends?
8689My husband?
8689My share of what, pray?
8689No head- bird gave you a safe- conduct?
8689No more shall perish?
8689Nobody?
8689Not even the happiness that has come to you?
8689Now am I to make one of those jokes that have the knack of always making the spectators laugh?
8689Now another point: if the magistrates condemn a citizen to the payment of a fine, how is he going to do it?
8689Now whatever are these cursed parchments?
8689Now who asks to speak?
8689Now why this lamentation?
8689Now will you be off with your decrees?
8689Now, who wishes to speak?
8689Now, will you know how to talk gravely with well- informed men of good class?
8689Of another, who caused hers to lose his reason with her potions?
8689Of stone?
8689Of the entrails-- is it so written?
8689Of what country?
8689Of what crimes is he not the author?
8689Of which gods are you speaking?
8689Of which one must I rid myself first?
8689Of which?
8689Of whom?
8689Oh Nymphs, ye virgins who are dear to me, how am I to approach him?
8689Oh, most cruel of all animals, why tear these two men to pieces, why kill them?
8689Oh, my dear, would you have me caring nothing for a poor woman in that plight?
8689Only what?
8689Or is it merely said ironically?
8689Ought you not rather to rejoice and give thanks to the gods?
8689Out of the public funds?
8689Over whom?
8689Paralus or Salaminia?
8689Pay attention and be silent about the door?
8689People will not be robbed any more at night?
8689Plutus in your house?
8689Plutus''very own self?
8689Possibly; but what was his object?
8689Pray, how should you know such garments?
8689Pray, is this obeying or being a slave, as you pretended to be able to prove?
8689Resistance to what?
8689Restore whom his sight?
8689Say, cock, is not that your opinion too?
8689Seek physicians at Athens?
8689Seest thou how these barbarians ill- use me-- me, who have many a time made them weep a full bushel of tears?
8689Shall we call it Sparta?
8689Shall you know exactly how to take up the songs that are started?
8689Should we not, friends, make a halt here and sign to call him out?
8689Silence about what?
8689Since then you have been living in misery?
8689Smoke?
8689So first of all, what think you of Alcibiades?
8689So it seems, despite all your youthful vigour, you make it your trade to denounce strangers?
8689So small?
8689So that words give wings?
8689So you want to earn trouble for your ribs,[1] eh?
8689So''tis because of me that sacrifices are offered to him?
8689Strymodorus of Conthylé, you best of mates, where is Euergides and where is Chales of Phyla?
8689Swarthy, robust of build?
8689Take your advice?
8689Tell me, father, what do you get out of the tribute paid by so many Greek towns?
8689Tell me, what''s all that yellow about you?
8689Tell me, who is your husband?
8689Thanks to me, they understand everything, discern all things, conduct their households better and ask themselves,"What is to be thought of this?
8689That they may tear me to pieces?
8689That troops are sent to succour the Egyptians?
8689That wo n''t worry him much, for has he not gained them by perjury?
8689The Alcibiades said to me in his lisping way,"Do you thee?
8689The Greeks?
8689The god of the sea?
8689The time?
8689Their name?
8689Then he has not shared?
8689Then he is acquitted?
8689Then how do you live, if you do nothing?
8689Then tell me this, why does all mankind flee from you?
8689Then there''s Sophocles, who is greater than Euripides; if you must absolutely bring someone back from Hades, why not make him live again?
8689Then what deliverance can there be for a city that will neither have cape nor cloak?
8689Then what should I talk about?
8689Then what witty thing shall I say?
8689Then where are your breasts?
8689Then where are your feathers?
8689Theramenes?
8689There will be no more playing at dice?
8689There will be no more thieves then, eh?
8689Therefore, if ever you recovered your sight, you would shun the wicked?
8689This one?
8689Three cotylae?
8689Thus ugly Lysicrates''nose will be as proud as the handsomest face?
8689Thus you will not change your mode of life?
8689To begin with you; who are you?
8689To cram[702] himself there like a capon?
8689To do the thing fairly, how do you propose to act?
8689To do what-- to spin?
8689To do what?
8689To do what?
8689To private gods of your own, which you have made after your own image?
8689To see if you were being buried?
8689To the bottom of Hades?
8689To what divinity is your homage addressed?
8689To what?
8689To- day things are better than yesterday; let us share, for are you not my friend?
8689Triballian, do you want a thrashing?
8689Us, who have wings and fly?
8689We birds?
8689We?
8689Well then, do you agree?
8689Well then, what name can you suggest?
8689Well, Aeschylus, why are you so restless?
8689Well, and then what?
8689Well, and why not?
8689Well, tell me, does that picture suit you?
8689Well, what must he do?
8689Well?
8689Well?
8689Well?
8689Well?
8689Were what?
8689Were you initiated into the Great Mysteries in that cloak?
8689What I love is down there,''tis down there I want to be, there, where the herald cries,"Who has not yet voted?
8689What ails you, that you should shake your fist at heaven?
8689What am I doing?
8689What are these birds with downy feathers, who look so pitiable to me?
8689What are these meats?
8689What are these things?
8689What are you asking?
8689What are you chanting us about frosts?
8689What are you chattering about cress?
8689What are you daring to do, you pitiful, wretched mortals?
8689What are you dong, you wretches?
8689What are you grumbling and groaning for?
8689What are you jabbering about?
8689What are you ruminating over now again?
8689What are you running away for?
8689What are you saying?
8689What are you saying?
8689What are you saying?
8689What are you saying?
8689What are you shouting for?
8689What are you shouting for?
8689What are you, then?
8689What belongs to the priestess?
8689What brings you here?
8689What can be done?
8689What case shall we bring up first?
8689What connection have they?
8689What country gave birth to such an audacious woman?
8689What d''you want with me?
8689What do the allies do?
8689What do you gain thereby?
8689What do you mean, that''s little good?
8689What do you mean?
8689What do you mean?
8689What do you mean?
8689What do you mean?
8689What do you reckon on doing then?

8689What does all this mean?
8689What does he say?

8689What does it mean?
8689What does it think?
8689What does this mean?
8689What does this mean?
8689What does this mean?
8689What does this mean?
8689What else is there to do?

8689What must be taken?
8689What must be taken?
8689What need for buying hooks?
8689What need for you to hear what you are going to see?
8689What need then had I to take this luggage, if I must not copy the porters that Phrynichus, Lycis and Amipsias[382] never fail to put on the stage?
8689What object will there be in playing?
8689What relation has a mirror to a sword?
8689What rich man would risk his life to devote himself to this traffic?

8689What shall our city be called?
8689What shall we do there?
8689What shall we do?

8689Whatever are you talking about?
8689When is the contest to begin?
8689When they are afraid, they promise to divide Euboea[79] among you and to give each fifty bushels of wheat, but what have they given you?
8689When?
8689Whence comes this voice?

8689Whom do you mean?
8689Whose voice is that?
8689Why are they against you?
8689Why are you rolling up your eyes?
8689Why are you trying to make yourself so small?
8689Why are you weeping?
8689Why be so bent on his ruin?
8689Why did you bring me from down yonder?
8689Why did you go off at early dawn with my cloak?
8689Why did you not reveal it to me before I founded my city?
8689Why do n''t you go there?
8689Why do we delay to let loose that fury, that is so terrible, when our nests are attacked?
8689Why do you come with that torch in your hand?
8689Why do you pull out the wick, you little dolt?
8689Why do you speak to me at all?
8689Why do you want to fidget about like this?
8689Why does he not come to join our party?
8689Why does the old man not show himself before the door?
8689Why forbid us to go out or show ourselves at the window?
8689Why have I no relation, no ally to speak to me like this?
8689Why have you not done the same?
8689Why not choose Athené Polias?
8689Why not choose Lepreum in Elis for your settlement?
8689Why not fair?

8689Why not?
8689Why not?
8689Why not?

8689Why should I hide the truth from you?
8689Why so?
8689Why steal, if you have a share of everything?
8689Why such wrath and these shouts, before you hear my arguments?
8689Why then are you setting all these things out in line?
8689Why these splendid buskins?
8689Why this impatience, eh?
8689Why were not guards sent against him at once?
8689Why with the stew- pots?
8689Why, certainly; are you not born of a stranger woman?
8689Why, did I invent the story of Phaedra?
8689Why, do n''t you see we are speeding as fast as men can, who are already enfeebled by age?
8689Why, do they think to see some advantage that determines them to settle here?

8689Will you have a high- sounding Laconian name?
8689Will you have done with this fooling?
8689Will you just pocket your salary, do nothing, and be off?
8689Will you keep silence?
8689Will you kindly stop here?

8689Will you please have the goodness to place yourself there, pot- belly?
8689Will you say that Zeus can not discern what is best?
8689Will you speak then?

8689With what object?
8689Wo n''t you be off quickly?

8689if Athens only acted thus, if it did not take delight in ceaseless innovations, would not its happiness be assured?
8689is it really and truly as you say?
8689is it thus he tells us his name?
8689is it you then, beloved Heracles?

14031_ Mag._ And does not the Rattle of your Pot- Companions, your Banterers, and Drolls, make you mad?
14031_ Mag._ But suppose to all these Things God should add Wisdom, should you live pleasantly then?
14031_ Mag._ By doing so you might prevent any of them from being wiser than yourself?
14031_ Mag._ For the Use of whom?
14031_ Mag._ How can it be then, that such pleasant Companions should make me mad?

14031_ Phaedrus_, what News to Day?
14031_ Phi._ In what Manner?
14031_ Phi._ Well, and did_ Balbinus_ believe all this?
14031_ Phi._ Well, what did_ Balbinus_ do then?
14031_ Phi._ Well, what was the End of all this?
14031_ Phi._ What did he design to do to him?
14031_ Phi._ What was that?
14031_ Phi._ What, that learned old Gentleman that has such a very good Character in the World?
14031_ Phil._ And what then?
14031_ Phil._ Are you a perfect Master in it?
14031_ Phil._ But what if he catches you?
14031_ Phil._ But what if he denies it?
14031_ Phil._ But when you are caught openly?
14031_ Phil._ Is there any Author that teaches the Art of Lying?
14031_ Phil._ Well, what then?
14031_ Phil._ What Art is this that you understand?
14031_ Phil._ What do you get by that?
14031_ Phil._ What if he informs you, and proves to your Face he has not had the Goods you charge him with?
14031_ Phil._ What is clever Lying?
14031_ Phil._ Who are those?
14031_ Phil._ Why then do People in common curse Liars, and hang Thieves?
14031_ Phil._ Why, are you not asham''d of it?
14031_ Phily._ But what did_ Romulus_ drink then?
14031_ Phily._ Do you make no Order as to the Method of Drinking?
14031_ Phily._ Was not that unbeseeming a King?
14031_ Phily._ What did he do?
14031_ Phily._ What did the_ Lacedæmonian_ mean by that?
14031_ Phily._ Why so?
14031_ Po._ And did you go thither?
14031_ Po._ And is that the State of Life you have always liv''d in?
14031_ Po._ And was so ridiculous an Art sufficient to maintain you?
14031_ Po._ And what did these Devils attempt to do?
14031_ Po._ But by what Arts hast thou kept off old Age?
14031_ Po._ But had he no evil Genius with him?
14031_ Po._ Ca n''t you give us some Representation of it?
14031_ Po._ Come, tell us,_ Glycion_ truly, how many Years do you number?
14031_ Po._ Did she leave you no children?
14031_ Po._ Do you ask what he said for himself, in so good a Cause as this?
14031_ Po._ Do you live as a private Person, or in some publick Office?
14031_ Po._ For certain?
14031_ Po._ Had she a very good Portion?
14031_ Po._ Had_ Jerome_ no Company with him?
14031_ Po._ How many Years do you reckon it, since we liv''d together at Paris?
14031_ Po._ How then?
14031_ Po._ Is there no News there?
14031_ Po._ No more of the Camel; but prithee tell me, what News have you?
14031_ Po._ O brave, I am glad with all my Heart, for_ Reuclin_''s, Sake; but what follow''d?
14031_ Po._ Well, but how many?
14031_ Po._ What did you do there?
14031_ Po._ What have we to do, but to set down this holy Man''s Name in the Calendar of Saints?
14031_ Po._ What hindred them?
14031_ Po._ What if I shall guess at him?
14031_ Po._ What should we do but tell merry Stories till you come?
14031_ Po._ What was your Age then?
14031_ Po._ What''s that, I pray?
14031_ Po._ Where did you get Money to bear your Charges?
14031_ Po._ Where have you been, with your Spatter- Lashes?
14031_ Po._ Whither did you take your next Flight?
14031_ Po._ Why so?
14031_ Po._ Why so?
14031_ Po._ Why so?
14031_ Po._ Why so?
14031_ Pol._ What, had you never an Inclination to marry again, especially the first having been so happy a Match to you?
14031_ Pseud._ First of all, I call''d you the best of Men, is not that a swinging Lie, when you are not so much as good?
14031_ Pseud._ From whence do Spiders Webs proceed?
14031_ Pseud._ Then will you give away your Estate?
14031_ Pseud._ Why, I have told one already, and did you not catch me in it?
14031_ Pseud._ Would you have me define it?
14031_ Ra._ And when you have done all these, go to the Market, and buy a Shoulder of Mutton, and get it nicely roasted: Do you hear this?
14031_ Ra._ Do you grin you Pimp?
14031_ Ra._ How comes it about then, that they do n''t look as well as you do?
14031_ Ra._ Is it so you rak''d it up last Night?
14031_ Ra._ No, Sirrah, did I not hear you mutter?
14031_ Ra._ What do you stand loytering here, you idle Knave?
14031_ Ra._ What''s that you say you slow- Back?
14031_ Ra._ Where are my Spurs?
14031_ Ra._ You Scoundrel, do you speak Sentences too?
14031_ Sal._ Are there any Persons to whom you would command me any Service?
14031_ Sal._ Have you any Recommendations to send by me to your Friends?
14031_ Sal._ How do you then dare to speak_ Latin_ when you are not at_ Rome_?
14031_ Sal._ Soho, soho, whither are you going so fast?
14031_ Sb._ Have you any Thing more that is certain about this Matter?
14031_ Sb._ What, with a good Stomach?
14031_ Sb._ Why so?
14031_ So._ And if you could do any Thing that would gratify them, would you do it?
14031_ So._ And of the Angels?
14031_ So._ Answer me this Question in the first Place: Are there any Persons that owe you any ill Will?
14031_ So._ Can we escape the Eye of God here?
14031_ So._ Did you ever see him?
14031_ So._ Has his Name reached to this Place too?
14031_ So._ Is there any Body that you have a Spleen against?
14031_ So._ Is there no Body near to hear us?
14031_ So._ Who are they?
14031_ So._ Why not to Day rather than to Morrow, if Delays are dangerous?
14031_ So._ Why so, my_ Lucretia_?
14031_ So._ Why so?
14031_ So._ You foolish Girl, what Need is there to whisper, when there is no Body but ourselves?
14031_ Sol._ Do you ask that?
14031_ Sol._ No?
14031_ Sol._ Where are they?
14031_ Sol._ Why do you observe these Things then?
14031_ Sol._ Why so?
14031_ Suppose it happen, as I desire, that there be no delay in_ Pamphilus; Chremes_ remains._ What is it that troubles you in these Words?
14031_ Sy._ I''m sure I do it every Day?
14031_ Sy._ What Proverb is this?
14031_ Sy._ What are you doing?
14031_ Sy._ What do you invite Guests too?
14031_ Sy._ What do you want me to do?
14031_ Sy._ What makes you run so,_ John?__ Jo._ What makes a Hare run before the Dogs, as they use to say?
14031_ Sy._ What makes you run so,_ John?__ Jo._ What makes a Hare run before the Dogs, as they use to say?
14031_ Sy._ What one Person in the World can do all these?
14031_ Sy._ What, so far?
14031_ Sy._ When?
14031_ Sy._ With whom?
14031_ Th._ And so do I too, but where are the Dogs?
14031_ The Answer.__ Pe._ What is it more than what_ Scotus_ and the School- men did afterwards?
14031_ Tho._ But wo n''t you impart it to your Companion, what good Thing soever it is?
14031_ Tho._ Could_ Polus_ keep his Countenance in the mean Time?
14031_ Tho._ Had they no Fire then?
14031_ Tho._ How so?
14031_ Tho._ Prithee what was that?
14031_ Tho._ This Reward the Parish- Priest had for playing his Part?
14031_ Tho._ Upon the left Hand, about two Flight Shot from the House?
14031_ Tho._ Well, proceed: what was done after this?
14031_ Tho._ Well, what do they do?
14031_ Tho._ Well, what then?
14031_ Tho._ What a Deal of Pains did this_ Polus_ take to put a Cheat upon People?
14031_ Tho._ What a ridiculous Conceit do you tell me of?
14031_ Tho._ What did he mean by inventing such a Flam?
14031_ Tho._ What good News have you had, that you laugh to yourself thus, as if you had found a Treasure?
14031_ Tho._ What was that?
14031_ Tho._ What were they?
14031_ Tho._ Who was it that raised this Report?
14031_ Thr._ Butchers are hired to kill Beasts; and why is our Trade found Fault with who are hired to kill Men?
14031_ Thr._ Then to be sure that_ Christopher_ the Collier was a sure Card to trust to?
14031_ Thr._ What do you talk to me of your_ Mercuries_ and your_ Vulcans_ for?
14031_ Thr._ Who a Mischief put you in my Way to disturb my Conscience, which was very quiet before?
14031_ Thr._ Why should I not?
14031_ Thr._ You tell me?
14031_ Ti._ But where does this delicious Rivulet discharge itself at last?
14031_ Ti._ But will you give us Leave now to discourse freely in your Dominions?
14031_ Ti._ Could you not be content with so neat, and well furnished a Garden in Substance, without other Gardens in Picture besides?
14031_ Ti._ Do n''t you take that Bounty to be well plac''d that is bestow''d upon Monasteries?
14031_ Ti._ Do you excuse yourself, because you are a Layman?
14031_ Ti._ Have you any more to be seen then?
14031_ Ti._ Have you any other beside this?
14031_ Ti._ I hope he will be pleased so to do; but where shall he sit, for the Places are all taken up?
14031_ Ti._ Is there no Remedy then against the Unruliness of wicked Kings?
14031_ Ti._ Is this the Chamæleon, there is so much Talk of?
14031_ Ti._ Those speckled, wonderful, pretty party- coloured Pillars, that at equal Distances support that Edifice, are they Marble?
14031_ Ti._ To whom then would you in an especial Manner give?
14031_ Ti._ What Sauce do you mean, Pepper, or Sugar?
14031_ Ti._ What does he say?
14031_ Ti._ What does he say?
14031_ Ti._ What does he say?
14031_ Ti._ What has this Swallow got in her Mouth?
14031_ Ti._ What is it then?
14031_ Ti._ What is it?
14031_ Ti._ What odd Sort of Lizard is this?
14031_ Ti._ What''s that?
14031_ Ti._ What''s the Meaning of that Piper?
14031_ Ti._ What, a Money Business?
14031_ Ti._ Where is it to be found?
14031_ Ti._ Who are those?
14031_ Ti._ Who could be tired with this House?
14031_ Ti._ Will you come back quickly?
14031_ Ti._ You say right: But how comes it about, that all your artificial Hedges are green too?
14031_ To a Man whose Wife is with Child.__ Pe._ What?
14031_ Vi._ Have you a Mind to jump with me?
14031_ Vi._ What if we should play at Cob- Nut?
14031_ Vi._ What if we should play at hopping?
14031_ Vi._ What if we two should play at holding up our Fingers?
14031_ Vi._ Why so?
14031_ Vultis ut ego capiam hostes?
14031_ Why?__ Pe._ Why ca n''t you?
14031_ Why?__ Pe._ Why ca n''t you?
14031_ Will._ Are Things very clean there?
14031_ Will._ But what if there should be any Thing over and above?
14031_ Will._ Do none of the Guests call for Meat in the mean Time?
14031_ Will._ Does no Body find fault with the Reckoning?
14031_ Will._ What becomes of your Horses all this While?
14031_ Will._ Why so?
14031_ Will._ Why, there was every where some pretty Lass or other, giggling and playing wanton Tricks?
14031_ Xa._ But how could you humour one who was never at Home, or was drunk?
14031_ Xa._ But what Time is that?
14031_ Xa._ But where can a Body get this Girdle?
14031_ Xa._ Do you and your Husband agree very well together?
14031_ Xa._ Do you think I shall succeed, if I try?
14031_ Xa._ Do you think, I can be able to new- make him?
14031_ Xa._ How could you do that?
14031_ Xa._ Well, what happened after that?
14031_ Xa._ What Things?
14031_ Xa._ What Woman ever made Choice of a Husband by her Ears?
14031_ Xa._ What becoming?
14031_ Xa._ What must I do?
14031_ Xa._ What then would you have me to do?
14031_ he alters_,''Is London free[B] from the plague?''
14031_ he changes_''capon''_ into_''hare'';_ yet makes no alteration in what follows_,''Do you prefer wing or leg?''
14031_ he thus spoils the joke_,''What has happened to the pards, that they should go to war with the lilies?
14031are our little Friends well?
14031are you such a Stranger in this Country, as not to know that that''s a Token of a lying- in Woman in that House?
14031but when must I come to your Funeral?
14031do n''t you see a Company of pretty Maids there?
14031do you come again empty- handed?
14031do you get no Good then by so dangerous a Voyage?
14031do you think I got an Estate by Thieving then?
14031does no Body come to the Door?
14031how cold they are in Comparison of these?
14031how far from being tasteless?
14031is it come to an open Rupture between you already?
14031nay, rather, what Pain has it not?
14031pray where''s the great Slaughter of Men that I have made?
14031say you so?
14031was I a Capon then, when I went hence?
14031was I a Saxon, then, when I went hence?''
14031what so far?
14031what, so much?
14031who will be Sureties for the performing this Promise?
14031why so, pray?
1497Will he,in the language of Pindar,"make justice his high tower, or fortify himself with crooked deceit?"
1497''And a true answer, of course:--but what more have they to say?''
1497''And can we conceive things greater still?''
1497''And do not the natures of men and women differ very much indeed?''
1497''And how will they begin their work?''
1497''And is her proper state ours or some other?''
1497''And what are the highest?''
1497''And what can I do more for you?''
1497''And what will they say?''
1497''But how shall we know the degrees of affinity, when all things are common?''
1497''But if many states join their resources, shall we not be in danger?''
1497''But then how will our poor city be able to go to war against an enemy who has money?''
1497''But will curiosity make a philosopher?
1497''But, Socrates, what is this supreme principle, knowledge or pleasure, or what?
1497''But, my dear Socrates, you are forgetting the main question: Is such a State possible?
1497''But,''said Glaucon, interposing,''are they not to have a relish?''
1497''Do you ask whether tragedy and comedy are to be admitted?''
1497''Glorious, indeed; but what is to follow?''
1497''How can we resist such arguments in favour of injustice?
1497''I do not understand what you mean?''
1497''I should like to know of what constitutions you were speaking?''
1497''Is it possible?
1497''Lover of wisdom,''''lover of knowledge,''are titles which we may fitly apply to that part of the soul?
1497''Socrates,''he says,''what folly is this?--Why do you agree to be vanquished by one another in a pretended argument?''
1497''Surely you are not prepared to prove that?''
1497''Sweet Sir,''we will say to him,''what think you of things esteemed noble and ignoble?
1497''Tell me, Socrates,''he says,''have you a nurse?''
1497''Then how are we to describe the true?''
1497''Then how is such an admission reconcileable with the doctrine that philosophers should be kings?''
1497''Well, and what answer do you give?''
1497''What appetites do you mean?''
1497''What do you mean?''
1497''What, then, shall a man profit, if he gain the whole world''and become more and more wicked?
1497''When a lively- minded ingenuous youth hears all this, what will be his conclusion?
1497''Who is that?''
1497''Will they not think this a hardship?''
1497''You do not mean to say that he will beat his father?''
1497), having no reason in them, and yet to be set in authority over the highest matters?
1497--How would you answer him?
1497--What defence will you make for us, my good Sir, against any one who offers these objections?
1497... He proceeds: What did Simonides mean by this saying of his?
1497A right noble thought; but do you suppose that we shall refrain from asking you what is this highest knowledge?
1497A second and greater wave is rolling in-- community of wives and children; is this either expedient or possible?
1497A state which is intermediate, and a sort of repose of the soul about either-- that is what you mean?
1497Adeimantus added: Has no one told you of the torch- race on horseback in honour of the goddess which will take place in the evening?
1497Admitting that women differ from men in capacity, do not men equally differ from one another?
1497After this manner the democrat was generated out of the oligarch?
1497Again the old question returns upon us: Is justice or injustice the more profitable?
1497Again, as to the devastation of Hellenic territory or the burning of houses, what is to be the practice?
1497Again, has he greater experience of the pleasures of honour, or the lover of honour of the pleasures of wisdom?
1497Again, is not the passionate element wholly set on ruling and conquering and getting fame?
1497Again, pleasure and pain are motions, and the absence of them is rest; but if so, how can the absence of either of them be the other?
1497Again, when pleasure ceases, that sort of rest or cessation will be painful?
1497All of whom will call one another citizens?
1497All that would arise out of his ignorance of the true upper and middle and lower regions?
1497Also they are utterly unjust, if we were right in our notion of justice?
1497Am I not right?
1497Am I not right?
1497Am I not right?
1497Am I not right?
1497Am I not right?
1497And O my friend, I said, surely the gods are just?
1497And a man will be most likely to care about that which he loves?
1497And a narrative it remains both in the speeches which the poet recites from time to time and in the intermediate passages?
1497And again, if he is forgetful and retains nothing of what he learns, will he not be an empty vessel?
1497And agreeably to this mode of thinking and speaking, were we not saying that they will have their pleasures and pains in common?
1497And all arithmetic and calculation have to do with number?
1497And also of the mental ones; his soul is to be full of spirit?
1497And also to be within and between them?
1497And an art requiring as much attention as shoemaking?
1497And another consideration has just occurred to me: You will remember that our young men are to be warrior athletes?
1497And any difference which arises among them will be regarded by them as discord only-- a quarrel among friends, which is not to be called a war?
1497And anything which is infected by any of these evils is made evil, and at last wholly dissolves and dies?
1497And are enemies also to receive what we owe to them?
1497And are not their praises of tyranny alone a sufficient reason why we should exclude them from our State?
1497And are our friends to be only the good, and our enemies to be the evil?
1497And are suits decided on any other ground but that a man may neither take what is another''s, nor be deprived of what is his own?
1497And are you going to run away before you have fairly taught or learned whether they are true or not?
1497And are you stronger than all these?
1497And as State is to State in virtue and happiness, so is man in relation to man?
1497And as we are to have the best of guardians for our city, must they not be those who have most the character of guardians?
1497And both pleasure and pain are motions of the soul, are they not?
1497And both should be in harmony?
1497And by contracts you mean partnerships?
1497And can any one of those many things which are called by particular names be said to be this rather than not to be this?
1497And can she or can she not fulfil her own ends when deprived of that excellence?
1497And can that which does no evil be a cause of evil?
1497And can the just by justice make men unjust, or speaking generally, can the good by virtue make them bad?
1497And can there be anything better for the interests of the State than that the men and women of a State should be as good as possible?
1497And can therefore neither be ignorance nor knowledge?
1497And can you mention any pursuit of mankind in which the male sex has not all these gifts and qualities in a higher degree than the female?
1497And democracy has her own good, of which the insatiable desire brings her to dissolution?
1497And do I differ from you, he said, as to the importance of the enquiry?
1497And do not good practices lead to virtue, and evil practices to vice?
1497And do not the two styles, or the mixture of the two, comprehend all poetry, and every form of expression in words?
1497And do the unjust appear to you to be wise and good?
1497And do they not educate to perfection young and old, men and women alike, and fashion them after their own hearts?
1497And do they not share?
1497And do we know what we opine?
1497And do you also agree, I said, in describing the dialectician as one who attains a conception of the essence of each thing?
1497And do you breed from them all indifferently, or do you take care to breed from the best only?
1497And do you consider truth to be akin to proportion or to disproportion?
1497And do you imagine, I said, that I am such a madman as to try and cheat, Thrasymachus?
1497And do you not know, I said, that all mere opinions are bad, and the best of them blind?
1497And do you remember the word of caution which preceded the discussion of them?
1497And do you suppose that I ask these questions with any design of injuring you in the argument?
1497And do you take the oldest or the youngest, or only those of ripe age?
1497And do you wish to behold what is blind and crooked and base, when others will tell you of brightness and beauty?
1497And does not the analogy apply still more to the State?
1497And does not the latter-- I mean the rebellious principle-- furnish a great variety of materials for imitation?
1497And does not the same hold also of the ridiculous?
1497And does not the same principle hold in the sciences?
1497And does not tyranny spring from democracy in the same manner as democracy from oligarchy-- I mean, after a sort?
1497And does the essence of the invariable partake of knowledge in the same degree as of essence?
1497And dogs are deteriorated in the good qualities of dogs, and not of horses?
1497And each art gives us a particular good and not merely a general one-- medicine, for example, gives us health; navigation, safety at sea, and so on?
1497And each of them is such as his like is?
1497And even if injustice be found in two only, will they not quarrel and fight, and become enemies to one another and to the just?
1497And even to this are there not exceptions?
1497And everything else on the style?
1497And food and wisdom are the corresponding satisfactions of either?
1497And from being a keeper of the law he is converted into a breaker of it?
1497And good counsel is clearly a kind of knowledge, for not by ignorance, but by knowledge, do men counsel well?
1497And has not the body itself less of truth and essence than the soul?
1497And has not the eye an excellence?
1497And has not the soul an excellence also?
1497And have we not already condemned that State in which the same persons are warriors as well as shopkeepers?
1497And he is good in as far as he is wise, and bad in as far as he is foolish?
1497And he is the best guard of a camp who is best able to steal a march upon the enemy?
1497And he is the only one who has wisdom as well as experience?
1497And he is to be deemed courageous whose spirit retains in pleasure and in pain the commands of reason about what he ought or ought not to fear?
1497And he who is most skilful in preventing or escaping from a disease is best able to create one?
1497And he who is not on a voyage has no need of a pilot?
1497And he who lives well is blessed and happy, and he who lives ill the reverse of happy?
1497And here, Glaucon, I should like to ask( as I know that you are a breeder of birds and animals), Do you not take the greatest care in the mating?
1497And his friends and fellow- citizens will want to use him as he gets older for their own purposes?
1497And how am I to convince you, he said, if you are not already convinced by what I have just said; what more can I do for you?
1497And how am I to do so?
1497And how are they to be learned without education?
1497And how can one who is thus circumstanced ever become a philosopher?
1497And how can we rightly answer that question?
1497And how does such an one live?
1497And how does the son come into being?
1497And how is the error to be corrected?
1497And how long is this stage of their lives to last?
1497And how will they proceed?
1497And how would he regard the attempt to gain an advantage over the unjust; would that be considered by him as just or unjust?
1497And if care was not taken in the breeding, your dogs and birds would greatly deteriorate?
1497And if merchandise is to be carried over the sea, skilful sailors will also be needed, and in considerable numbers?
1497And if our youth are to do their work in life, must they not make these graces and harmonies their perpetual aim?
1497And if that is true, what sort of general must he have been?
1497And if the old man and woman fight for their own, what then, my friend?
1497And if the world perceives that what we are saying about him is the truth, will they be angry with philosophy?
1497And if there be any State in which rulers and subjects will be agreed as to the question who are to rule, that again will be our State?
1497And if they are both known to them, one must be the friend and the other the enemy of the gods, as we admitted from the beginning?
1497And if they are to be what we were describing, is there not another quality which they should also possess?
1497And if they turn out to be two, is not each of them one and different?
1497And if they were able to converse with one another, would they not suppose that they were naming what was actually before them?
1497And if we only have a guardian who has this knowledge our State will be perfectly ordered?
1497And ignorance and folly are inanitions of the soul?
1497And in like manner does the touch adequately perceive the qualities of thickness or thinness, of softness or hardness?
1497And in oligarchical States, from the general spread of carelessness and extravagance, men of good family have often been reduced to beggary?
1497And in our State what other name besides that of citizens do the people give the rulers?
1497And in our opinion the guardians ought to have both these qualities?
1497And in such a case what is one to say?
1497And in that case they will be right in doing good to the evil and evil to the good?
1497And in that interval there has now been discovered something which we call opinion?
1497And in the first place, he will honour studies which impress these qualities on his soul and will disregard others?
1497And in the laying of bricks and stones is the just man a more useful or better partner than the builder?
1497And in what sort of actions or with a view to what result is the just man most able to do harm to his enemy and good to his friend?
1497And inasmuch as they are two, each of them is one?
1497And is he likely to be brave who has no spirit, whether horse or dog or any other animal?
1497And is he not truly good?
1497And is justice dimmer in the individual, and is her form different, or is she the same which we found her to be in the State?
1497And is not a State larger than an individual?
1497And is not a similar method to be pursued about the virtues, which are also four in number?
1497And is not life to be reckoned among the ends of the soul?
1497And is not that farthest from reason which is at the greatest distance from law and order?
1497And is not the end of the soul happiness, and justice the excellence of the soul by which happiness is attained?
1497And is not the love of learning the love of wisdom, which is philosophy?
1497And is not the reason of this that the several principles, whether in the state or in the individual, do their own business?
1497And is not the unjust like the wise and good and the just unlike them?
1497And is not their humanity to the condemned in some cases quite charming?
1497And is not this involuntary deprivation caused either by theft, or force, or enchantment?
1497And is not this the reason why of old love has been called a tyrant?
1497And is opinion also a faculty?
1497And is our theory a worse theory because we are unable to prove the possibility of a city being ordered in the manner described?
1497And is the art of war one of those arts in which she can or can not share?
1497And is the city which is under a tyrant rich or poor?
1497And is the satisfaction derived from that which has less or from that which has more existence the truer?
1497And is there any greater or keener pleasure than that of sensual love?
1497And is there any man in whom you will find more of this sort of misery than in the tyrannical man, who is in a fury of passions and desires?
1497And is there anything more akin to wisdom than truth?
1497And is this confined to the sight only, or does it extend to the hearing also, relating in fact to what we term poetry?
1497And it has this particular quality because it has an object of a particular kind; and this is true of the other arts and sciences?
1497And just actions cause justice, and unjust actions cause injustice?
1497And literature may be either true or false?
1497And living in this way we shall have much greater need of physicians than before?
1497And luxury and softness are blamed, because they relax and weaken this same creature, and make a coward of him?
1497And may not the many which are doubles be also halves?--doubles, that is, of one thing, and halves of another?
1497And may we not rightly call such men treacherous?
1497And may we not say of the philosopher that he is a lover, not of a part of wisdom only, but of the whole?
1497And may we not say that the mind of the one who knows has knowledge, and that the mind of the other, who opines only, has opinion?
1497And may we not say the same of all things?
1497And may we not say, Adeimantus, that the most gifted minds, when they are ill- educated, become pre- eminently bad?
1497And men are blamed for pride and bad temper when the lion and serpent element in them disproportionately grows and gains strength?
1497And might a man be thirsty, and yet unwilling to drink?
1497And must not an animal be a lover of learning who determines what he likes and dislikes by the test of knowledge and ignorance?
1497And must not such a State and such a man be always full of fear?
1497And must not the like happen with the spirited or passionate element of the soul?
1497And must not the soul be perplexed at this intimation which the sense gives of a hard which is also soft?
1497And must not the tyrannical man be like the tyrannical State, and the democratical man like the democratical State; and the same of the others?
1497And must not we swim and try to reach the shore: we will hope that Arion''s dolphin or some other miraculous help may save us?
1497And narration may be either simple narration, or imitation, or a union of the two?
1497And next, how does he live?
1497And next, shall we enquire whether the kindred science also concerns us?
1497And no good thing is hurtful?
1497And not- being is not one thing but, properly speaking, nothing?
1497And now tell me, I conjure you, has not imitation been shown by us to be concerned with that which is thrice removed from the truth?
1497And now what is their manner of life, and what sort of a government have they?
1497And now what remains of the work of legislation?
1497And now why do you not praise me?
1497And now, Adeimantus, is our State matured and perfected?
1497And of individuals who consort with the mob and seek to please them?
1497And of the objects which are being carried in like manner they would only see the shadows?
1497And of the pleasures of love, and all other pleasures, the same holds good?
1497And of the unjust may not the opposite be supposed?
1497And of truth in the same degree?
1497And once more, the inharmonious and unseemly nature can only tend to disproportion?
1497And one feature they will erase, and another they will put in, until they have made the ways of men, as far as possible, agreeable to the ways of God?
1497And one woman has a turn for gymnastic and military exercises, and another is unwarlike and hates gymnastics?
1497And one woman is a philosopher, and another is an enemy of philosophy; one has spirit, and another is without spirit?
1497And opinion is to have an opinion?
1497And ought not the same natures to have the same pursuits?
1497And our guardian is both warrior and philosopher?
1497And reasoning is peculiarly his instrument?
1497And shall I add,''whether seen or unseen by gods and men''?
1497And shall we proceed to get rid of the weepings and wailings of famous men?
1497And shall we receive into our State all the three styles, or one only of the two unmixed styles?
1497And should an immortal being seriously think of this little space rather than of the whole?
1497And should we not enquire what sort of knowledge has the power of effecting such a change?
1497And so let us have a final trial and proclamation; need we hire a herald, or shall I proclaim the result?
1497And so of all other things;--justice is useful when they are useless, and useless when they are useful?
1497And so of the other senses; do they give perfect intimations of such matters?
1497And so they will be drawn by a necessity of their natures to have intercourse with each other-- necessity is not too strong a word, I think?
1497And so tyranny naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme form of liberty?
1497And still there arises another question: Are friends to be interpreted as real or seeming; enemies as real or seeming?
1497And such a pilot and ruler will provide and prescribe for the interest of the sailor who is under him, and not for his own or the ruler''s interest?
1497And suppose injustice abiding in a single person, would your wisdom say that she loses or that she retains her natural power?
1497And suppose we make astronomy the third-- what do you say?
1497And surely, he said, this occurs notably in the case of one; for we see the same thing to be both one and infinite in multitude?
1497And that human virtue is justice?
1497And that others should approve, of what we approve, is no miracle or impossibility?
1497And that to which an end is appointed has also an excellence?
1497And that which hurts not does no evil?
1497And that which is not hurtful hurts not?
1497And that which is opposed to them is one of the inferior principles of the soul?
1497And the State which is enslaved under a tyrant is utterly incapable of acting voluntarily?
1497And the anticipations of future pleasures and pains are of a like nature?
1497And the avaricious, I said, is the oligarchical youth?
1497And the better part of the soul is likely to be that which trusts to measure and calculation?
1497And the citizens being thus agreed among themselves, in which class will temperance be found-- in the rulers or in the subjects?
1497And the country which was enough to support the original inhabitants will be too small now, and not enough?
1497And the ear has an end and an excellence also?
1497And the end or use of a horse or of anything would be that which could not be accomplished, or not so well accomplished, by any other thing?
1497And the fairest is also the loveliest?
1497And the forbidding principle is derived from reason, and that which bids and attracts proceeds from passion and disease?
1497And the friend he regards and describes as one in whom he has an interest, and the other as a stranger in whom he has no interest?
1497And the good is advantageous?
1497And the government is the ruling power in each state?
1497And the greater the interval which separates them from philosophy and reason, the more strange and illusive will be the pleasure?
1497And the greatest degree of evil- doing to one''s own city would be termed by you injustice?
1497And the harmonious soul is both temperate and courageous?
1497And the higher the duties of the guardian, I said, the more time, and skill, and art, and application will be needed by him?
1497And the individual will be acknowledged by us to be just in the same way in which the State is just?
1497And the inharmonious is cowardly and boorish?
1497And the insatiable desire of wealth and the neglect of all other things for the sake of money- getting was also the ruin of oligarchy?
1497And the interest of any art is the perfection of it-- this and nothing else?
1497And the just is the good?
1497And the kinds of knowledge in a State are many and diverse?
1497And the knowing is wise?
1497And the laws which they make must be obeyed by their subjects,--and that is what you call justice?
1497And the lover of honour-- what will be his opinion?
1497And the lustful and tyrannical desires are, as we saw, at the greatest distance?
1497And the man who has the spirit of harmony will be most in love with the loveliest; but he will not love him who is of an inharmonious soul?
1497And the melody and rhythm will depend upon the words?
1497And the more detestable his actions are to the citizens the more satellites and the greater devotion in them will he require?
1497And the more hated he is, the more he will require trusty guards; but how will he obtain them?
1497And the much greater to the much less?
1497And the new government which thus arises will be of a form intermediate between oligarchy and aristocracy?
1497And the oligarch is third from the royal; since we count as one royal and aristocratical?
1497And the painter too is, as I conceive, just such another-- a creator of appearances, is he not?
1497And the persons whose property is taken from them are compelled to defend themselves before the people as they best can?
1497And the pilot likewise, in the strict sense of the term, is a ruler of sailors and not a mere sailor?
1497And the pilot-- that is to say, the true pilot-- is he a captain of sailors or a mere sailor?
1497And the possibility has been acknowledged?
1497And the power which the eye possesses is a sort of effluence which is dispensed from the sun?
1497And the reason is that each part of him is doing its own business, whether in ruling or being ruled?
1497And the reason of this, over and above the general constitution of the State, will be that the guardians will have a community of women and children?
1497And the reason why the good are useless has now been explained?
1497And the result will be that he becomes a worse potter?
1497And the royal and orderly desires are nearest?
1497And the same is true of all other things; they have each of them an end and a special excellence?
1497And the same observation will apply to all other things?
1497And the same of horses and animals in general?
1497And the sometime greater to the sometime less, and the greater that is to be to the less that is to be?
1497And the tragic poet is an imitator, and therefore, like all other imitators, he is thrice removed from the king and from the truth?
1497And the tyrannical soul must be always poor and insatiable?
1497And the unjust is good and wise, and the just is neither?
1497And the unjust man will strive and struggle to obtain more than the unjust man or action, in order that he may have more than all?
1497And the virtue which enters into this competition is justice?
1497And the wise is good?
1497And the work of the painter is a third?
1497And the worker in leather and brass will make them?
1497And the young should be trained in both kinds, and we begin with the false?
1497And then, although they may have no desire of change, the others charge them with plotting against the people and being friends of oligarchy?
1497And there are three kinds of pleasure, which are their several objects?
1497And there is a neutral state which is neither pleasure nor pain?
1497And therefore he will not sorrow for his departed friend as though he had suffered anything terrible?
1497And therefore philosophers must inevitably fall under the censure of the world?
1497And therefore the cause of well- being?
1497And therefore they are likely to do harm to our young men-- you would agree with me there?
1497And therefore to acknowledge that bad and good are the same?
1497And they appear to lead the mind towards truth?
1497And they will place them under the command of experienced veterans who will be their leaders and teachers?
1497And they will take them on the safe expeditions and be cautious about the dangerous ones?
1497And things great and small, heavy and light, as they are termed, will not be denoted by these any more than by the opposite names?
1497And this assimilation of himself to another, either by the use of voice or gesture, is the imitation of the person whose character he assumes?
1497And this is because injustice creates divisions and hatreds and fighting, and justice imparts harmony and friendship; is not that true, Thrasymachus?
1497And this is equally true of imitation; no one man can imitate many things as well as he would imitate a single one?
1497And this is what the arts of music and gymnastic, when present in such manner as we have described, will accomplish?
1497And this, surely, must be the work of the calculating and rational principle in the soul?
1497And those who govern ought not to be lovers of the task?
1497And to this end they ought to be wise and efficient, and to have a special care of the State?
1497And to which class do unity and number belong?
1497And was I not right, Adeimantus?
1497And was I not right?
1497And we have admitted that justice is the excellence of the soul, and injustice the defect of the soul?
1497And we have admitted, I said, that the good of each art is specially confined to the art?
1497And what are these?
1497And what do the Muses say next?
1497And what do the rulers call one another in other States?
1497And what do the rulers call the people?
1497And what do they call them in other States?
1497And what do they receive of men?
1497And what do you say of lovers of wine?
1497And what do you say to his receiving the right hand of fellowship?
1497And what do you think of a second principle?
1497And what does the judge affirm to be the life which is next, and the pleasure which is next?
1497And what due or proper thing is given by cookery, and to what?
1497And what happens?
1497And what in ours?
1497And what is that which justice gives, and to whom?
1497And what is the faculty in man to which imitation is addressed?
1497And what is the name which the city derives from the possession of this sort of knowledge?
1497And what is the next question?
1497And what is the organ with which we see the visible things?
1497And what is the prime of life?
1497And what is this knowledge, and among whom is it found?
1497And what is your view about them?
1497And what manner of government do you term oligarchy?
1497And what manner of man answers to such a State?
1497And what may that be?
1497And what of passion, or spirit?
1497And what of the ignorant?
1497And what of the maker of the bed?
1497And what of the unjust-- does he claim to have more than the just man and to do more than is just?
1497And what shall be their education?
1497And what shall we say about men?
1497And what shall we say of men?
1497And what shall we say of the carpenter-- is not he also the maker of the bed?
1497And what similar use or power of acquisition has justice in time of peace?
1497And what then would you say?
1497And what training will draw the soul upwards?
1497And what would you say of the physician?
1497And when all the world is telling a man that he is six feet high, and he has no measure, how can he believe anything else?
1497And when persons are suffering from acute pain, you must have heard them say that there is nothing pleasanter than to get rid of their pain?
1497And when these fail?
1497And when they meet in private will not people be saying to one another''Our warriors are not good for much''?
1497And when truth is the captain, we can not suspect any evil of the band which he leads?
1497And when you see the same evils in the tyrannical man, what do you say of him?
1497And when you speak of music, do you include literature or not?
1497And when you want to buy a ship, the shipwright or the pilot would be better?
1497And where do you find them?
1497And where freedom is, the individual is clearly able to order for himself his own life as he pleases?
1497And which are the harmonies expressive of sorrow?
1497And which are the soft or drinking harmonies?
1497And which are these two sorts?
1497And which is wise and which is foolish?
1497And which method do I understand you to prefer?
1497And which of the three has the truest knowledge and the widest experience?
1497And which sort of life, Glaucon, do you prefer?
1497And which, I said, of the gods in heaven would you say was the lord of this element?
1497And whichever of these qualities we find in the State, the one which is not found will be the residue?
1497And who are the devoted band, and where will he procure them?
1497And who is best able to do good to his friends and evil to his enemies in time of sickness?
1497And why are mean employments and manual arts a reproach?
1497And why, sillybillies, do you knock under to one another?
1497And will any one say that he is not a miserable caitiff who remorselessly sells his own divine being to that which is most godless and detestable?
1497And will he sell his own fairer and diviner part without any compunction to the most godless and foul?
1497And will he then change himself for the better and fairer, or for the worse and more unsightly?
1497And will not a true astronomer have the same feeling when he looks at the movements of the stars?
1497And will not he who has been shown to be the wickedest, be also the most miserable?
1497And will not men who are injured be deteriorated in that which is the proper virtue of man?
1497And will not the bravest and wisest soul be least confused or deranged by any external influence?
1497And will not the city, which you are founding, be an Hellenic city?
1497And will not the same condition be best for our citizens?
1497And will not the words and the character of the style depend on the temper of the soul?
1497And will not their wives be the best women?
1497And will the blindness and crookedness of opinion content you when you might have the light and certainty of science?
1497And will the habit of body of our ordinary athletes be suited to them?
1497And will the love of a lie be any part of a philosopher''s nature?
1497And will there be in our city more of these true guardians or more smiths?
1497And will they be a class which is rarely found?
1497And will they not be lovers of Hellas, and think of Hellas as their own land, and share in the common temples?
1497And will you be so very good as to answer one more question?
1497And will you have a work better done when the workman has many occupations, or when he has only one?
1497And with the hearing, I said, we hear, and with the other senses perceive the other objects of sense?
1497And would he try to go beyond just action?
1497And would not a really good education furnish the best safeguard?
1497And would you call justice vice?
1497And would you have the future rulers of your ideal State intelligent beings, or stupid as posts?
1497And would you say that the soul of such an one is the soul of a freeman, or of a slave?
1497And yet not so well as with a pruning- hook made for the purpose?
1497And yet there is a sense in which the painter also creates a bed?
1497And yet you were acknowledging a little while ago that knowledge is not the same as opinion?
1497And yet, as you see, there are freemen as well as masters in such a State?
1497And you also said that the just will not go beyond his like but his unlike?
1497And you are aware too that the latter can not explain what they mean by knowledge, but are obliged after all to say knowledge of the good?
1497And you know that a man who is deranged and not right in his mind, will fancy that he is able to rule, not only over men, but also over the gods?
1497And you may further imagine that his instructor is pointing to the objects as they pass and requiring him to name them,--will he not be perplexed?
1497And you placed astronomy next, and then you made a step backward?
1497And you would say the same of the conception of the good?
1497And you would say the same sort of thing of the physician?
1497And, conversely, that which has less of truth will also have less of essence?
1497Another question has not been answered: Is the just or the unjust the happier?
1497Another question is, Which of existing states is suited to her?
1497Any affinity to wantonness and intemperance?
1497Any more than heat can produce cold?
1497Any more than they can be rhapsodists and actors at once?
1497Are not necessary pleasures those of which we can not get rid, and of which the satisfaction is a benefit to us?
1497Are not the chief elements of temperance, speaking generally, obedience to commanders and self- control in sensual pleasures?
1497Are not the public who say these things the greatest of all Sophists?
1497Are not the tragic poets wise who magnify and exalt the tyrant, and say that he is wise by association with the wise?
1497Are not these functions proper to the soul, and can they rightly be assigned to any other?
1497Are the lovers of sights and sounds, who let out their ears to every chorus at the Dionysiac festivals, to be called philosophers?''
1497Are they two or one, and is either of them the cause of the other?
1497Are we not right in saying that the love of knowledge, no less than riches, may divert him?
1497Are you not aware, I said, that the soul of man is immortal and imperishable?
1497Are you satisfied then that the quality which makes such men and such states is justice, or do you hope to discover some other?
1497As being the same with knowledge, or another faculty?
1497As they are or as they appear?
1497At any rate you can tell that a song or ode has three parts-- the words, the melody, and the rhythm; that degree of knowledge I may presuppose?
1497At what age?
1497Because I want to know in which of the three classes you would place justice?
1497Because it has a particular quality which no other has?
1497Beds, then, are of three kinds, and there are three artists who superintend them: God, the maker of the bed, and the painter?
1497Beginning with the State, I replied, would you say that a city which is governed by a tyrant is free or enslaved?
1497Being is the sphere or subject- matter of knowledge, and knowledge is to know the nature of being?
1497But again, will they tell us that such a nature, placed under favourable circumstances, will not be perfectly good and wise if any ever was?
1497But although the gods are themselves unchangeable, still by witchcraft and deception they may make us think that they appear in various forms?
1497But are not these spirited natures apt to be savage with one another, and with everybody else?
1497But are the rulers of states absolutely infallible, or are they sometimes liable to err?
1497But are they really three or one?
1497But can any of these reasons apply to God?
1497But can that which is neither become both?
1497But can that which is neither become both?
1497But can the musician by his art make men unmusical?
1497But can you persuade us, if we refuse to listen to you?
1497But can you tell me of any other suitable study?
1497But can you use different animals for the same purpose, unless they are bred and fed in the same way?
1497But did we not say, Thrasymachus, that the unjust goes beyond both his like and unlike?
1497But do you imagine that men who are unable to give and take a reason will have the knowledge which we require of them?
1497But do you know whom I think good?
1497But do you mean to say that this is not the opinion of the multitude?
1497But do you not admire their cleverness?
1497But do you not admire, I said, the coolness and dexterity of these ready ministers of political corruption?
1497But do you not see that there is a sense in which you could do the same?
1497But do you observe the reason of this?
1497But do you see, he rejoined, how many we are?
1497But does he therefore confer no benefit when he works for nothing?
1497But does the painter know the right form of the bit and reins?
1497But have we not here fallen into a contradiction?
1497But have you remarked that sight is by far the most costly and complex piece of workmanship which the artificer of the senses ever contrived?
1497But he may have friends who are senseless or mad?
1497But he would claim to exceed the non- musician?
1497But he would wish to go beyond the non- physician?
1497But how did timocracy arise out of the perfect State?
1497But how is the image applicable to the disciples of philosophy?
1497But how will they draw out the plan of which you are speaking?
1497But how will they know who are fathers and daughters, and so on?
1497But if he were taken back again he would imagine, and truly imagine, that he was descending?
1497But if so, the tyrant will live most unpleasantly, and the king most pleasantly?
1497But if so, the unjust will be the enemy of the gods, and the just will be their friend?
1497But if the process by which we are supposed to arrive at the idea of good be really imaginary, may not the idea itself be also a mere abstraction?
1497But if they abstained from injuring one another, then they might act together better?
1497But if they are to be courageous, must they not learn other lessons besides these, and lessons of such a kind as will take away the fear of death?
1497But in what way good or harm?
1497But is a man in harmony with himself when he is the subject of these conflicting influences?
1497But is not this unjust?
1497But is not war an art?
1497But is opinion to be sought without and beyond either of them, in a greater clearness than knowledge, or in a greater darkness than ignorance?
1497But is passion a third principle, or akin to desire?
1497But is such a community possible?--as among the animals, so also among men; and if possible, in what way possible?
1497But is the just man or the skilful player a more useful and better partner at a game of draughts?
1497But is there no difference between men and women?
1497But is there not another name which people give to their rulers in other States?
1497But is this equally true of the greatness and smallness of the fingers?
1497But let me ask you another question: Has excess of pleasure any affinity to temperance?
1497But may he not change and transform himself?
1497But may not the stimulus which love has given to fancy be some day exhausted?
1497But next, what shall we say of their food; for the men are in training for the great contest of all-- are they not?
1497But ought the just to injure any one at all?
1497But ought we to attempt to construct one?
1497But ought we to render evil for evil at all, when to do so will only make men more evil?
1497But shall we be right in getting rid of them?
1497But should not life rest on the moral rather than upon the physical?
1497But suppose that he were to retort,''Thrasymachus, what do you mean?
1497But surely God and the things of God are in every way perfect?
1497But surely, Thrasymachus, the arts are the superiors and rulers of their own subjects?
1497But that which is neither was just now shown to be rest and not motion, and in a mean between them?
1497But the condiments are only necessary in so far as they are good for health?
1497But the good are just and would not do an injustice?
1497But the hero who has distinguished himself, what shall be done to him?
1497But the philosopher will still be justified in asking,''How may the heavenly gift of poesy be devoted to the good of mankind?''
1497But the soul which can not be destroyed by an evil, whether inherent or external, must exist for ever, and if existing for ever, must be immortal?
1497But those who see the absolute and eternal and immutable may be said to know, and not to have opinion only?
1497But we should like to ask him a question: Does he who has knowledge know something or nothing?
1497But what branch of knowledge is there, my dear Glaucon, which is of the desired nature; since all the useful arts were reckoned mean by us?
1497But what can show a more disgraceful state of education than to have to go abroad for justice because you have none of your own at home?
1497But what do you mean by the highest of all knowledge?
1497But what do you say of music, which also entered to a certain extent into our former scheme?
1497But what do you say to flute- makers and flute- players?
1497But what if I give you an answer about justice other and better, he said, than any of these?
1497But what if there are no gods?
1497But what is the next step?
1497But what of the world below?
1497But what ought to be their course?
1497But what shall be done to the hero?
1497But what shall their education be?
1497But what will be the process of delineation?''
1497But what would you have, Glaucon?
1497But when a man is well, my dear Polemarchus, there is no need of a physician?
1497But when is this fault committed?
1497But when they are directed towards objects on which the sun shines, they see clearly and there is sight in them?
1497But whence came division?
1497But where are the two?
1497But where, amid all this, is justice?
1497But which is the happier?
1497But which stories do you mean, he said; and what fault do you find with them?
1497But who can doubt that philosophers should be chosen, if they have the other qualities which are required in a ruler?
1497But why do you ask?
1497But why do you ask?
1497But why should we dispute about names when we have realities of such importance to consider?
1497But why?
1497But will he have no sorrow, or shall we say that although he can not help sorrowing, he will moderate his sorrow?
1497But will he not desire to get them on the spot?
1497But will the imitator have either?
1497But will you let me assume, without reciting them, that these things are true?
1497But would any of your guardians think or speak of any other guardian as a stranger?
1497But would you call the painter a creator and maker?
1497But you can cut off a vine- branch with a dagger or with a chisel, and in many other ways?
1497But you see that without the addition of some other nature there is no seeing or being seen?
1497But, if Homer never did any public service, was he privately a guide or teacher of any?
1497By heaven, would not such an one be a rare educator?
1497Can I say what I do not know?
1497Can a man help imitating that with which he holds reverential converse?
1497Can any man be courageous who has the fear of death in him?
1497Can any other origin of a State be imagined?
1497Can any reality come up to the idea?
1497Can he have an opinion which is an opinion about nothing?
1497Can justice produce injustice any more than the art of horsemanship can make bad horsemen, or heat produce cold?
1497Can sight adequately perceive them?
1497Can the god of Jealousy himself find any fault with such an assemblage of good qualities?
1497Can the same nature be a lover of wisdom and a lover of falsehood?
1497Can there be any greater evil than discord and distraction and plurality where unity ought to reign?
1497Can they have a better place than between being and not- being?
1497Can we any longer doubt, then, that the miser and money- maker answers to the oligarchical State?
1497Can we deny that a warrior should have a knowledge of arithmetic?
1497Can we suppose that he is ignorant of antiquity, and therefore has recourse to invention?
1497Can you tell me what imitation is?
1497Can you tell me whence I derive this inference?
1497Capital, I said; but let me ask you once more: Shall they be a family in name only; or shall they in all their actions be true to the name?
1497Certainly, the same principle holds; but why does this involve any particular skill?
1497Deteriorated, that is to say, in the good qualities of horses, not of dogs?
1497Did he mean that I was to give back arms to a madman?
1497Did this never strike you as curious?
1497Did you ever hear any of them which were not?
1497Did you hear all the advantages of the unjust which Thrasymachus was rehearsing?
1497Did you never hear it?
1497Did you never observe how the mind of a clever rogue peers out of his eyes, and the more clearly he sees, the more evil he does?
1497Did you never observe in the arts how the potters''boys look on and help, long before they touch the wheel?
1497Do I take you with me?
1497Do they by attaching to the soul and inhering in her at last bring her to death, and so separate her from the body?
1497Do we admit the existence of opinion?
1497Do you agree?
1497Do you know of any other?
1497Do you know where you will have to look if you want to discover his rogueries?
1497Do you know, I said, that governments vary as the dispositions of men vary, and that there must be as many of the one as there are of the other?
1497Do you mean that there is no such maker or creator, or that in one sense there might be a maker of all these things but in another not?
1497Do you mean, for example, that he who is mistaken about the sick is a physician in that he is mistaken?
1497Do you not know that all this is but the prelude to the actual strain which we have to learn?
1497Do you not know that the soul is immortal?
1497Do you not know, I said, that the true lie, if such an expression may be allowed, is hated of gods and men?
1497Do you not remark, I said, how great is the evil which dialectic has introduced?
1497Do you not see them doing the same?
1497Do you observe that we were not far wrong in our guess that temperance was a sort of harmony?
1497Do you remember?
1497Do you see that there is a way in which you could make them all yourself?
1497Do you suppose that I call him who is mistaken the stronger at the time when he is mistaken?
1497Do you think it right that Hellenes should enslave Hellenic States, or allow others to enslave them, if they can help?
1497Do you think that the possession of all other things is of any value if we do not possess the good?
1497Do you think that there is anything so very unnatural or inexcusable in their case?
1497Does he not call the other pleasures necessary, under the idea that if there were no necessity for them, he would rather not have them?
1497Does not like always attract like?
1497Does not the practice of despoiling an enemy afford an excuse for not facing the battle?
1497Does not the timocratical man change into the oligarchical on this wise?
1497Does that look well?
1497Does the injustice or other evil which exists in the soul waste and consume her?
1497Does the just man try to gain any advantage over the just?
1497Each of them, I said, is such as his like is?
1497Enough of gods and heroes;--what shall we say about men?
1497Enough, my friend; but what is enough while anything remains wanting?
1497Ethics),''Whether the virtues are one or many?''
1497Every act does something to somebody; and following this analogy, Socrates asks, What is this due and proper thing which justice does, and to whom?
1497Except a city?--or would you include a city?
1497First of all, in regard to slavery?
1497First you began with a geometry of plane surfaces?
1497First, then, they resemble one another in the value which they set upon wealth?
1497For all these things are only the prelude, and you surely do not suppose that a mere mathematician is also a dialectician?
1497For concerning political measures, we chiefly ask: How will they affect the happiness of mankind?
1497For example, I said, can the same thing be at rest and in motion at the same time in the same part?
1497For if Agamemnon could not count his feet( and without number how could he?)
1497For what purpose do you conceive that we have come here, said Thrasymachus,--to look for gold, or to hear discourse?
1497For which the art has to consider and provide?
1497For you surely would not regard the skilled mathematician as a dialectician?
1497Further, I said, has not a drunken man also the spirit of a tyrant?
1497Further, the very faculty which is the instrument of judgment is not possessed by the covetous or ambitious man, but only by the philosopher?
1497Further, there can be no doubt that a work is spoilt when not done at the right time?
1497God forbid, I replied; but may I ask you to consider the image in another point of view?
1497Good, I said; then you call him who is third in the descent from nature an imitator?
1497Has he not, I said, an occupation; and what profit would there be in his life if he were deprived of his occupation?
1497Has not nature scattered all the qualities which our citizens require indifferently up and down among the two sexes?
1497Has not that been admitted?
1497Has not the intemperate been censured of old, because in him the huge multiform monster is allowed to be too much at large?
1497Have I clearly explained the class which I mean?
1497Have we not here a picture of his way of life?
1497Having effected this, they will proceed to trace an outline of the constitution?
1497Having so many evils, will not the most miserable of men be still more miserable in a public station?
1497He asks only''What good have they done?''
1497He can hardly avoid saying Yes-- can he now?
1497He is a soldier, and, like Adeimantus, has been distinguished at the battle of Megara( anno 456?
1497He knows that this latter institution is not more than four or five thousand years old: may not the end revert to the beginning?
1497He looked at me in astonishment, and said: No, by heaven: And are you really prepared to maintain this?
1497He mentioned that he was present when one of the spirits asked another,''Where is Ardiaeus the Great?''
1497He roared out to the whole company: What folly, Socrates, has taken possession of you all?
1497He said: Who then are the true philosophers?
1497He was present when one of the spirits asked-- Where is Ardiaeus the Great?
1497He who has an opinion has an opinion about some one thing?
1497He will grow more and more indolent and careless?
1497Hence arises the question,''What is great, what is small?''
1497His experience, then, will enable him to judge better than any one?
1497How can that be?
1497How can that be?
1497How can there be?
1497How can they, he said, if they are blind and can not see?
1497How can they, he said, when they are not allowed to apply their minds to the callings of any of these?
1497How can we?
1497How cast off?
1497How do they act?
1497How do you distinguish them?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How do you mean?
1497How is he to be wise and also innocent?
1497How many?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How so?
1497How then can men and women have the same?
1497How then does a protector begin to change into a tyrant?
1497How was that?
1497How well I remember the aged poet Sophocles, when in answer to the question, How does love suit with age, Sophocles,--are you still the man you were?
1497How will they proceed?
1497How would they address us?
1497How, then, can we be right in supposing that the absence of pain is pleasure, or that the absence of pleasure is pain?
1497How?
1497How?
1497How?
1497How?
1497How?
1497I am sure that I should be contented-- will not you?
1497I assume, I said, that the tyrant is in the third place from the oligarch; the democrat was in the middle?
1497I dare say, Glaucon, that you are as much charmed by her as I am, especially when she appears in Homer?
1497I do not know, do you?
1497I might say the same of the ears; when deprived of their own proper excellence they can not fulfil their end?
1497I presume then that you are going to make one of the interdicted answers?
1497I proceeded to ask: When two things, a greater and less, are called by the same name, are they like or unlike in so far as they are called the same?
1497I repeated, Why am I especially not to be let off?
1497I replied; and if we asked him what due or proper thing is given by medicine, and to whom, what answer do you think that he would make to us?
1497I said; how shall we find a gentle nature which has also a great spirit, for the one is the contradiction of the other?
1497I said; the prelude or what?
1497I should like to know whether you have the same notion which I have of this study?
1497I suppose that you would call justice virtue and injustice vice?
1497I want to know whether ideals are ever fully realized in language?
1497I will be wiser now and acknowledge that we must go to the bottom of another question: What is to be the education of our guardians?
1497I will explain: The body which is large when seen near, appears small when seen at a distance?
1497I will proceed by asking a question: Would you not say that a horse has some end?
1497I will; and first tell me, Do you admit that it is just for subjects to obey their rulers?
1497If wealth and gain were the criterion, then the praise or blame of the lover of gain would surely be the most trustworthy?
1497Imitation is only a kind of play or sport, and the tragic poets, whether they write in Iambic or in Heroic verse, are imitators in the highest degree?
1497In prescribing meats and drinks would he wish to go beyond another physician or beyond the practice of medicine?
1497In the first place, are they not free; and is not the city full of freedom and frankness-- a man may say and do what he likes?
1497In the next place our youth must be temperate?
1497In these cases a man is not compelled to ask of thought the question what is a finger?
1497In this both Plato and Kheyam rise above the level of many Christian(?)
1497In what manner?
1497In what manner?
1497In what particulars?
1497In what point of view?
1497In what respect do you mean?
1497In what respect?
1497In what respects?
1497In what way make allowance?
1497In what way shown?
1497In what way?
1497Including the art of war?
1497Indeed, Thrasymachus, and do I really appear to you to argue like an informer?
1497Is God above or below the idea of good?
1497Is any better than experience and wisdom and reason?
1497Is any better than the old- fashioned sort which is comprehended under the name of music and gymnastic?
1497Is he not a true image of the State which he represents?
1497Is it a third, or akin to one of the preceding?
1497Is it desirable?''
1497Is it for this that we are asked to throw away the civilization which is the growth of ages?
1497Is it not on this wise?--The good at which such a State aims is to become as rich as possible, a desire which is insatiable?
1497Is not Polemarchus your heir?
1497Is not absolute injustice absolute weakness also?
1497Is not his case utterly miserable?
1497Is not honesty the best policy?
1497Is not that still more disgraceful?
1497Is not that true, Thrasymachus?
1497Is not the Republic the vehicle of three or four great truths which, to Plato''s own mind, are most naturally represented in the form of the State?
1497Is not the double also the half, and are not heavy and light relative terms which pass into one another?
1497Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the God in man; the ignoble, that which subjects the man to the beast?
1497Is not the noble that which subjects the beast to the man, or rather to the god in man; and the ignoble that which subjects the man to the beast?''
1497Is not the noble youth very like a well- bred dog in respect of guarding and watching?
1497Is not the strength of injustice only a remnant of justice?
1497Is not this the case?
1497Is not this the way-- he is the son of the miserly and oligarchical father who has trained him in his own habits?
1497Is not this true?
1497Is not this unavoidable?
1497Is not to have lost the truth an evil, and to possess the truth a good?
1497Is passion then the same with reason?
1497Is that true?
1497Is the relation between them one of mutual antagonism or of mutual harmony?
1497Is there any State in which you will find more of lamentation and sorrow and groaning and pain?
1497Is there any better criterion than experience and knowledge?
1497Is there any city which he might name?
1497Is there any city which professes to have received laws from you, as Sicily and Italy have from Charondas, Sparta from Lycurgus, Athens from Solon?
1497Is there any other virtue remaining which can compete with wisdom and temperance and courage in the scale of political virtue?
1497Is there anything more?
1497Is there not also a second class of goods, such as knowledge, sight, health, which are desirable not only in themselves, but also for their results?
1497Is there not rather a contradiction in him?
1497Is this a pattern laid up in heaven, or mere vacancy on which he is supposed to gaze with wondering eye?
1497Is this ideal at all the worse for being impracticable?
1497It follows therefore that the good is not the cause of all things, but of the good only?
1497It may also be called temperate, and for the same reasons?
1497Italy and Sicily boast of Charondas, and there is Solon who is renowned among us; but what city has anything to say about you?''
1497Justice and health of mind will be of the company, and temperance will follow after?
1497Labouring in vain, he must end in hating himself and his fruitless occupation?
1497Last comes the lover of gain?
1497Last of all comes the tyrannical man, about whom we have to enquire, Whence is he, and how does he live-- in happiness or in misery?
1497Last of all comes the tyrannical man; about whom we have once more to ask, how is he formed out of the democratical?
1497Let me ask you a question: Are not the several arts different, by reason of their each having a separate function?
1497Let me explain: Can you see, except with the eye?
1497Let us examine this: Is not pleasure opposed to pain, and is there not a mean state which is neither?
1497Let us take any common instance; there are beds and tables in the world-- plenty of them, are there not?
1497Like husbandry for the acquisition of corn?
1497Like ourselves, I replied; and they see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another, which the fire throws on the opposite wall of the cave?
1497Look at the matter thus:--Hunger, thirst, and the like, are inanitions of the bodily state?
1497Male and female animals have the same pursuits-- why not also the two sexes of man?
1497May I ask, Cephalus, whether your fortune was for the most part inherited or acquired by you?
1497May I have the pleasure, he said, of hearing your opinion?
1497May I suppose that you have this distinction of the visible and intelligible fixed in your mind?
1497May it not be defined as a period of about twenty years in a woman''s life, and thirty in a man''s?
1497May not the relation of sight to this deity be described as follows?
1497May there not be the alternative, I said, that we may persuade you to let us go?
1497May we not be satisfied with that?
1497May we not say that these desires spend, and that the others make money because they conduce to production?
1497May we not say that this is the end of a pruning- hook?
1497May we say so, then?
1497Must he not either perish at the hands of his enemies, or from being a man become a wolf-- that is, a tyrant?
1497Must we not ask who are to be rulers and who subjects?
1497Must we not then infer that the individual is wise in the same way, and in virtue of the same quality which makes the State wise?
1497My question is only whether the just man, while refusing to have more than another just man, would wish and claim to have more than the unjust?
1497Nay, are they not wholly different?
1497Need I ask again whether the eye has an end?
1497Need I recall the original image of the philosopher?
1497Neither may they imitate smiths or other artificers, or oarsmen, or boatswains, or the like?
1497Neither must they represent slaves, male or female, performing the offices of slaves?
1497Neither sight nor the eye in which sight resides is the sun?
1497Neither will he ever break faith where there have been oaths or agreements?
1497Neither would you approve of the delicacies, as they are thought, of Athenian confectionary?
1497Neither, I said, can there be any question that the guardian who is to keep anything should have eyes rather than no eyes?
1497Next as to the slain; ought the conquerors, I said, to take anything but their armour?
1497Next, as to war; what are to be the relations of your soldiers to one another and to their enemies?
1497Next, how shall our soldiers treat their enemies?
1497Next, we shall ask our opponent how, in reference to any of the pursuits or arts of civic life, the nature of a woman differs from that of a man?
1497Niebuhr has asked a trifling question, which may be briefly noticed in this place-- Was Plato a good citizen?
1497No more than this?
1497No one will be less likely to commit adultery, or to dishonour his father and mother, or to fail in his religious duties?
1497No, indeed, I replied; and the same is true of most, if not all, the other senses-- you would not say that any of them requires such an addition?
1497Nonsense, said Glaucon: did you not promise to search yourself, saying that for you not to help justice in her need would be an impiety?
1497Nor by reason of a knowledge which advises about brazen pots, I said, nor as possessing any other similar knowledge?
1497Nor can the good harm any one?
1497Nor may they imitate the neighing of horses, the bellowing of bulls, the murmur of rivers and roll of the ocean, thunder, and all that sort of thing?
1497Nor would you say that medicine is the art of receiving pay because a man takes fees when he is engaged in healing?
1497Nor yet by reason of a knowledge which cultivates the earth; that would give the city the name of agricultural?
1497Nor, if a man is to be in condition, would you allow him to have a Corinthian girl as his fair friend?
1497Not to mention the importers and exporters, who are called merchants?
1497Not, perhaps, in this brief span of life: but should an immortal being care about anything short of eternity?
1497Now are we to maintain that all these and any who have similar tastes, as well as the professors of quite minor arts, are philosophers?
1497Now can we be right in praising and admiring another who is doing that which any one of us would abominate and be ashamed of in his own person?
1497Now in vessels which are in a state of mutiny and by sailors who are mutineers, how will the true pilot be regarded?
1497Now is there not here a third principle which is often found to come to the assistance of reason against desire, but never of desire against reason?
1497Now to which of these classes does temperance belong?
1497Now what man answers to this form of government- how did he come into being, and what is he like?
1497Now what opinion of any other Sophist, or of any private person, can be expected to overcome in such an unequal contest?
1497Now which is the purer satisfaction-- that of eating and drinking, or that of knowledge?
1497Now why is such an inference erroneous?
1497Now you understand me?
1497Now, I beseech you, do tell me, have you ever attended to their pairing and breeding?
1497Now, I said, every art has an interest?
1497Now, are not the best husbandmen those who are most devoted to husbandry?
1497Now, can we find justice without troubling ourselves about temperance?
1497Now, how shall we decide between them?
1497Now, in such a State, can liberty have any limit?
1497Now, ought a man to feel pleasure in seeing another do what he hates and abominates in himself?
1497Now, will you appeal to mankind in general or to the philosopher?
1497O my friend, is not that so?
1497Of course you know that ambition and avarice are held to be, as indeed they are, a disgrace?
1497Of not- being, ignorance was assumed to be the necessary correlative; of being, knowledge?
1497Of the painter we say that he will paint reins, and he will paint a bit?
1497Of the three individuals, which has the greatest experience of all the pleasures which we enumerated?
1497Of what kind?
1497Of what nature are you speaking?
1497Of what nature?
1497Of what sort?
1497Of what tales are you speaking?
1497On what principle, then, shall we any longer choose justice rather than the worst injustice?
1497Once more let me ask: Does he who desires any class of goods, desire the whole class or a part only?
1497Once more then, O my friend, we have alighted upon an easy question-- whether the soul has these three principles or not?
1497One of them is ready to follow the guidance of the law?
1497One principle prevails in the souls of one class of men, another in others, as may happen?
1497One woman has a gift of healing, another not; one is a musician, and another has no music in her nature?
1497Or any affinity to virtue in general?
1497Or be jealous of one who has no jealousy?
1497Or because a man is in good health when he receives pay you would not say that the art of payment is medicine?
1497Or can such an one account death fearful?
1497Or did he only seem to be a member of the ruling body, although in truth he was neither ruler nor subject, but just a spendthrift?
1497Or drought moisture?
1497Or have the arts to look only after their own interests?
1497Or hear, except with the ear?
1497Or if honour or victory or courage, in that case the judgment of the ambitious or pugnacious would be the truest?
1497Or is the Idea of Good another mode of conceiving God?
1497Or is there any Homeric way of life, such as the Pythagorean was, in which you instructed men, and which is called after you?
1497Or like shoemaking for the acquisition of shoes,--that is what you mean?
1497Or must we admit exceptions?
1497Or perhaps he may tell a lie because he is afraid of enemies?
1497Or shall I guess for you?
1497Or shall the dead be despoiled?
1497Or suppose a better sort of man who is attracted towards philosophy, will they not make Herculean efforts to spoil and corrupt him?
1497Or that his nature, being such as we have delineated, is akin to the highest good?
1497Or the horseman by his art make them bad horsemen?
1497Or the verse''The saddest of fates is to die and meet destiny from hunger?''
1497Or was any war ever carried on by your counsels?
1497Or what shall he profit by escaping discovery, if the concealment of evil prevents the cure?
1497Or when they are on a voyage, amid the perils of the sea?
1497Or will they prefer those whom we have rejected?
1497Or, after all, they may be in the right, and poets do really know the things about which they seem to the many to speak so well?
1497Or, if the master would not stay, then the disciples would have followed him about everywhere, until they had got education enough?
1497Ought I not to begin by describing how the change from timocracy to oligarchy arises?
1497Ought I, for example, to put back into the hands of my friend, who has gone mad, the sword which I borrowed of him when he was in his right mind?
1497Our State like every other has rulers and subjects?
1497Parents and tutors are always telling their sons and their wards that they are to be just; but why?
1497Perhaps he of whom we say the last will be angry with us; can we pacify him without revealing the disorder of his mind?
1497Presently he finds that imputations are cast upon them; a troublesome querist comes and asks,''What is the just and good?''
1497Reflect: is not the dreamer, sleeping or waking, one who likens dissimilar things, who puts the copy in the place of the real object?
1497Reflect: when a man has an opinion, has he not an opinion about something?
1497Reflecting upon these and similar evils, you held the tyrannical State to be the most miserable of States?
1497Salvation of what?
1497Say, then, is not pleasure opposed to pain?
1497Shall Hellenes be enslaved?
1497Shall I assume that we ourselves are able and experienced judges and have before now met with such a person?
1497Shall I give you an illustration of them?
1497Shall I give you an illustration?
1497Shall I tell you whose I believe the saying to be?
1497Shall I tell you why?
1497Shall they listen to the narrative of Hephaestus binding his mother, and of Zeus sending him flying for helping her when she was beaten?
1497Shall we begin by assuring him that he is welcome to any knowledge which he may have, and that we are rejoiced at his having it?
1497Shall we begin education with music, and go on to gymnastic afterwards?
1497Shall we not?
1497Shall we propose, as a third branch of our education, astronomy?
1497Shall we, after the manner of Homer, pray the Muses to tell us''how discord first arose''?
1497Shall we, then, speak of Him as the natural author or maker of the bed?
1497Should not their custom be to spare them, considering the danger which there is that the whole race may one day fall under the yoke of the barbarians?
1497Socrates, what do you mean?
1497Socrates, who is evidently preparing for an argument, next asks, What is the meaning of the word justice?
1497Socrates; do you want to know how much I acquired?
1497Something that is or is not?
1497Something that is; for how can that which is not ever be known?
1497Still, I should like to ascertain how astronomy can be learned in any manner more conducive to that knowledge of which we are speaking?
1497Still, the dangers of war can not be always foreseen; there is a good deal of chance about them?
1497Such is the tale; is there any possibility of making our citizens believe in it?
1497Such will be the change, and after the change has been made, how will they proceed?
1497Such, then, are the palms of victory which the gods give the just?
1497Suppose now that by the light of the examples just offered we enquire who this imitator is?
1497Suppose we call it the contentious or ambitious-- would the term be suitable?
1497Suppose we select an example of either kind, in order that we may have a general notion of them?
1497Tell me then, O thou heir of the argument, what did Simonides say, and according to you truly say, about justice?
1497Tell me, Thrasymachus, I said, did you mean by justice what the stronger thought to be his interest, whether really so or not?
1497Tell me: will he be more likely to struggle and hold out against his sorrow when he is seen by his equals, or when he is alone?
1497That is also good, he said; but I should like to know what you mean?
1497That is his meaning then?
1497That is quite true, he said; but to what are you alluding?
1497That is to say, justice is useful when money is useless?
1497That since beauty is the opposite of ugliness, they are two?
1497That there are three arts which are concerned with all things: one which uses, another which makes, a third which imitates them?
1497That will be the way?
1497The State which we have been describing is said to be wise as being good in counsel?
1497The existence of such persons is to be attributed to want of education, ill- training, and an evil constitution of the State?
1497The good which oligarchy proposed to itself and the means by which it was maintained was excess of wealth-- am I not right?
1497The imitative artist will be in a brilliant state of intelligence about his own creations?
1497The just man then, if we regard the idea of justice only, will be like the just State?
1497The man is mean, saving, toiling, the slave of one passion which is the master of the rest: Is he not the very image of the State?
1497The next question is, How shall we treat our enemies?
1497The next question is, Who are to be our rulers?
1497The object of one is food, and of the other drink?
1497The one love and embrace the subjects of knowledge, the other those of opinion?
1497The pleasure of eating is necessary in two ways; it does us good and it is essential to the continuance of life?
1497The process is as follows: When a potter becomes rich, will he, think you, any longer take the same pains with his art?
1497The question is asked,--Why are the citizens of states so hostile to philosophy?
1497The ruler may impose the laws and institutions which we have been describing, and the citizens may possibly be willing to obey them?
1497The second paradox leads up to some curious and interesting questions-- How far can the mind control the body?
1497The soul, I said, being, as is now proven, immortal, must be the fairest of compositions and can not be compounded of many elements?
1497The true lie is hated not only by the gods, but also by men?
1497The true lover of learning then must from his earliest youth, as far as in him lies, desire all truth?
1497The very great benefit has next to be established?
1497The whole period of three score years and ten is surely but a little thing in comparison with eternity?
1497Their pleasures are mixed with pains-- how can they be otherwise?
1497Then I may infer courage to be such as you describe?
1497Then I suppose that opinion appears to you to be darker than knowledge, but lighter than ignorance?
1497Then I suppose that we ought to do good to the just and harm to the unjust?
1497Then a city is not to be called wise because possessing a knowledge which counsels for the best about wooden implements?
1497Then a soul which forgets can not be ranked among genuine philosophic natures; we must insist that the philosopher should have a good memory?
1497Then according to your argument it is just to injure those who do no wrong?
1497Then an evil soul must necessarily be an evil ruler and superintendent, and the good soul a good ruler?
1497Then are we to impose all our enactments on men and none of them on women?
1497Then carpenters, and smiths, and many other artisans, will be sharers in our little State, which is already beginning to grow?
1497Then clearly the next thing will be to make matrimony sacred in the highest degree, and what is most beneficial will be deemed sacred?
1497Then comparing our original city, which was under a king, and the city which is under a tyrant, how do they stand as to virtue?
1497Then everything which is good, whether made by art or nature, or both, is least liable to suffer change from without?
1497Then he can hardly be compelled by external influence to take many shapes?
1497Then he who is a good keeper of anything is also a good thief?
1497Then he who is to be a really good and noble guardian of the State will require to unite in himself philosophy and spirit and swiftness and strength?
1497Then he will no more have true opinion than he will have knowledge about the goodness or badness of his imitations?
1497Then hirelings will help to make up our population?
1497Then how can he who has magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all time and all existence, think much of human life?
1497Then if being is the subject- matter of knowledge, something else must be the subject- matter of opinion?
1497Then if geometry compels us to view being, it concerns us; if becoming only, it does not concern us?
1497Then if the constitutions of States are five, the dispositions of individual minds will also be five?
1497Then if the man is like the State, I said, must not the same rule prevail?
1497Then if there be any city which may be described as master of its own pleasures and desires, and master of itself, ours may claim such a designation?
1497Then in every way the laws will help the citizens to keep the peace with one another?
1497Then in making their laws they may sometimes make them rightly, and sometimes not?
1497Then in this case the narrative of the poet may be said to proceed by way of imitation?
1497Then in this kind of State there will be the greatest variety of human natures?
1497Then in time of peace justice will be of no use?
1497Then in time of peace what is the good of justice?
1497Then it will be our duty to select, if we can, natures which are fitted for the task of guarding the city?
1497Then justice, according to your argument, is not only obedience to the interest of the stronger but the reverse?
1497Then knowledge and opinion having distinct powers have also distinct spheres or subject- matters?
1497Then medicine does not consider the interest of medicine, but the interest of the body?
1497Then men who are injured are of necessity made unjust?
1497Then more husbandmen and more artisans will be required?
1497Then must not a further admission be made?
1497Then no intemperance or madness should be allowed to approach true love?
1497Then no motive can be imagined why God should lie?
1497Then now comes the question,--How shall we create our rulers; what way is there from darkness to light?
1497Then on this view also justice will be admitted to be the having and doing what is a man''s own, and belongs to him?
1497Then opinion and knowledge have to do with different kinds of matter corresponding to this difference of faculties?
1497Then opinion is not concerned either with being or with not- being?
1497Then reflect; has the ear or voice need of any third or additional nature in order that the one may be able to hear and the other to be heard?
1497Then shall we propose this as a second branch of knowledge which our youth will study?
1497Then shall we try to find some way of convincing him, if we can, that he is saying what is not true?
1497Then that is not the knowledge which we are seeking to discover?
1497Then that part of the soul which has an opinion contrary to measure is not the same with that which has an opinion in accordance with measure?
1497Then the art of war partakes of them?
1497Then the community of wives and children among our citizens is clearly the source of the greatest good to the State?
1497Then the cowardly and mean nature has no part in true philosophy?
1497Then the intermediate state of rest will be pleasure and will also be pain?
1497Then the just is happy, and the unjust miserable?
1497Then the just is like the wise and good, and the unjust like the evil and ignorant?
1497Then the just soul and the just man will live well, and the unjust man will live ill?
1497Then the lover of wisdom has a great advantage over the lover of gain, for he has a double experience?
1497Then the lying poet has no place in our idea of God?
1497Then the soul of the thirsty one, in so far as he is thirsty, desires only drink; for this he yearns and tries to obtain it?
1497Then the sun is not sight, but the author of sight who is recognised by sight?
1497Then the superhuman and divine is absolutely incapable of falsehood?
1497Then the tyrant is removed from true pleasure by the space of a number which is three times three?
1497Then the tyrant will live at the greatest distance from true or natural pleasure, and the king at the least?
1497Then the wise and good will not desire to gain more than his like, but more than his unlike and opposite?
1497Then the world can not possibly be a philosopher?
1497Then there is nothing impossible or out of the order of nature in our finding a guardian who has a similar combination of qualities?
1497Then there must be another class of citizens who will bring the required supply from another city?
1497Then they will quarrel as those who intend some day to be reconciled?
1497Then this is the progress which you call dialectic?
1497Then this new kind of knowledge must have an additional quality?
1497Then to injure a friend or any one else is not the act of a just man, but of the opposite, who is the unjust?
1497Then to them the good will be enemies and the evil will be their friends?
1497Then virtue is the health and beauty and well- being of the soul, and vice the disease and weakness and deformity of the same?
1497Then we have found the desired natures; and now that we have found them, how are they to be reared and educated?
1497Then we have made an enactment not only possible but in the highest degree beneficial to the State?
1497Then we have now, I said, the second form of government and the second type of character?
1497Then we may assume that our athletes will be able to fight with two or three times their own number?
1497Then we may begin by assuming that there are three classes of men-- lovers of wisdom, lovers of honour, lovers of gain?
1497Then we must abstain from spoiling the dead or hindering their burial?
1497Then we shall want merchants?
1497Then what is that joint use of silver or gold in which the just man is to be preferred?
1497Then what is your meaning?
1497Then what will you do with them?
1497Then when the person who asks me is not in his right mind I am by no means to make the return?
1497Then who is more miserable?
1497Then why are they paid?
1497Then why not sin and pay for indulgences out of your sin?
1497Then why should you mind?
1497Then will not the citizens be good and civilized?
1497Then women must be taught music and gymnastic and also the art of war, which they must practise like the men?
1497Then would you call injustice malignity?
1497Then you never heard of the saying of Phocylides, that as soon as a man has a livelihood he should practise virtue?
1497Then you will make a law that they shall have such an education as will enable them to attain the greatest skill in asking and answering questions?
1497Then you would infer that opinion is intermediate?
1497Then you would not approve of Syracusan dinners, and the refinements of Sicilian cookery?
1497Then, I said, if these and these only are to be used in our songs and melodies, we shall not want multiplicity of notes or a panharmonic scale?
1497Then, I said, no science or art considers or enjoins the interest of the stronger or superior, but only the interest of the subject and weaker?
1497Then, I said, our guardians must lay the foundations of their fortress in music?
1497Then, again, within the city, how will they exchange their productions?
1497Then, do you see any way in which the philosopher can be preserved in his calling to the end?
1497Then, if there be any good which all artists have in common, that is to be attributed to something of which they all have the common use?
1497Then, if women are to have the same duties as men, they must have the same nurture and education?
1497Then, under the influence either of poverty or of wealth, workmen and their work are equally liable to degenerate?
1497There is a thing which you call good and another which you call evil?
1497There is another which is the work of the carpenter?
1497There is the knowledge of the carpenter; but is that the sort of knowledge which gives a city the title of wise and good in counsel?
1497There may come a time when the saying,''Have I not a right to do what I will with my own?''
1497There were two parts in our former scheme of education, were there not?
1497There you are right, he replied; but if any one asks where are such models to be found and of what tales are you speaking-- how shall we answer him?
1497These are the three styles-- which of them is to be admitted into our State?
1497These matters, however, as I was saying, had better be referred to Damon himself, for the analysis of the subject would be difficult, you know?
1497These then may be truly said to be the ends of these organs?
1497These, then, are the two kinds of style?
1497They are like faces which were never really beautiful, but only blooming; and now the bloom of youth has passed away from them?
1497They will use friendly correction, but will not enslave or destroy their opponents; they will be correctors, not enemies?
1497This, I said, is he who begins to make a party against the rich?
1497This, then, will be the first great defect of oligarchy?
1497Thrasymachus said,''Do you think that we have come hither to dig for gold, or to hear you discourse?''
1497Thus much of music, which makes a fair ending; for what should be the end of music if not the love of beauty?
1497To be sure, he said; how can he think otherwise?
1497To return to the tyrant-- How will he support that rare army of his?
1497To tell the truth and pay your debts?
1497To what do you refer?
1497To what do you refer?
1497True, I said; but would you never allow them to run any risk?
1497True, he replied; but what of that?
1497True, he said; how could they see anything but the shadows if they were never allowed to move their heads?
1497Undoubtedly; and yet if music and gymnastic are excluded, and the arts are also excluded, what remains?
1497Union and force and rhetoric will do much; and if men say that they can not prevail over the gods, still how do we know that there are gods?
1497Until some one rare and grand result is reached which may be good, and may be the reverse of good?
1497Very good, I said; then what is the next question?
1497Very good, Thrasymachus, I said; and now to take the case of the arts: you would admit that one man is a musician and another not a musician?
1497Very true, Adeimantus; but then, would any one, whether God or man, desire to make himself worse?
1497Very true, I said; that is what I have to do: But will you be so good as answer yet one more question?
1497Very true, he said; but what are these forms of theology which you mean?
1497Very true, said Adeimantus; but how does the illustration apply to our enquiry?
1497Was not the selection of the male guardians determined by differences of this sort?
1497Was not this the beginning of the enquiry''What is great?''
1497We acknowledged-- did we not?
1497We are not wrong therefore in calling them necessary?
1497We can not but remember that the justice of the State consisted in each of the three classes doing the work of its own class?
1497We had to consider, first, whether our proposals were possible, and secondly whether they were the most beneficial?
1497We must recollect that the individual in whom the several qualities of his nature do their own work will be just, and will do his own work?
1497We were saying that the parents should be in the prime of life?
1497We were saying, when we spoke of the subject- matter, that we had no need of lamentation and strains of sorrow?
1497Well said, Cephalus, I replied; but as concerning justice, what is it?--to speak the truth and to pay your debts-- no more than this?
1497Well then, here are three beds: one existing in nature, which is made by God, as I think that we may say-- for no one else can be the maker?
1497Well then, is not- being the subject- matter of opinion?
1497Well then, you would admit that the qualities of states mean the qualities of the individuals who compose them?
1497Well, I said, and how does the change from oligarchy into democracy arise?
1497Well, I said, and in oligarchical States do you not find paupers?
1497Well, I said, and is there no evil which corrupts the soul?
1497Well, I said, and you would agree( would you not?)
1497Well, I said, the subject has several difficulties-- What is possible?
1497Well, I said; but if we suppose a change in anything, that change must be effected either by the thing itself, or by some other thing?
1497Well, and are these of any military use?
1497Well, and can the eyes fulfil their end if they are wanting in their own proper excellence and have a defect instead?
1497Well, and do you think that those who say so are wrong?
1497Well, and is not this one quality, to mention no others, greatly at variance with present notions of him?
1497Well, and were we not creating an ideal of a perfect State?
1497Well, and your guardian must be brave if he is to fight well?
1497Well, but can you imagine that God will be willing to lie, whether in word or deed, or to put forth a phantom of himself?
1497Well, but has any one a right to say positively what he does not know?
1497Well, but if they are ever to run a risk should they not do so on some occasion when, if they escape disaster, they will be the better for it?
1497Well, but is there any war on record which was carried on successfully by him, or aided by his counsels, when he was alive?
1497Well, but what ought to be the criterion?
1497Well, he said, have you never heard that forms of government differ; there are tyrannies, and there are democracies, and there are aristocracies?
1497Well, there is another question: By friends and enemies do we mean those who are so really, or only in seeming?
1497Well, you know of course that the greater is relative to the less?
1497Well; and has not the soul an end which nothing else can fulfil?
1497Were not these your words?
1497What about this?
1497What admission?
1497What admissions?
1497What are these corruptions?
1497What are they, he said, and where shall I find them?
1497What are they?
1497What are they?
1497What are they?
1497What are you going to say?
1497What causes?
1497What defect?
1497What did I borrow?
1497What division?
1497What do they say?
1497What do you deserve to have done to you?
1497What do you mean, Socrates?
1497What do you mean?
1497What do you mean?
1497What do you mean?
1497What do you mean?
1497What do you mean?
1497What do you mean?

1497What do you mean?
1497What do you say?
1497What do you say?
1497What do you say?
1497What do you say?''
1497What do you think?
1497What else can they do?
1497What else then would you say?
1497What else would you have?
1497What evil?
1497What evil?
1497What evils?
1497What faculty?
1497What good?
1497What is desirable?
1497What is it?
1497What is it?
1497What is it?
1497What is most required?
1497What is that you are saying?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is that?
1497What is the difference?
1497What is the process?
1497What is the proposition?
1497What is there remaining?
1497What is to be done then?
1497What is your illustration?
1497What is your notion?
1497What is your proposal?
1497What limit would you propose?
1497What makes you say that?
1497What may that be?
1497What may that be?
1497What may that be?
1497What of this line,''O heavy with wine, who hast the eyes of a dog and the heart of a stag,''and of the words which follow?
1497What point of view?
1497What point?
1497What point?
1497What principle of rival Sophists or anybody else can overcome in such an unequal contest?
1497What quality?
1497What quality?
1497What question?
1497What shall he profit, if his injustice be undetected and unpunished?
1497What shall we say to him?
1497What should they fear?
1497What sort of instances do you mean?
1497What sort of knowledge is there which would draw the soul from becoming to being?
1497What sort of lie?
1497What sort of mischief?
1497What study do you mean-- of the prelude, or what?
1497What tale?
1497What the poets and story- tellers say-- that the wicked prosper and the righteous are afflicted, or that justice is another''s gain?
1497What then is the real object of them?
1497What then?
1497What trait?
1497What was the error, Polemarchus?
1497What was the mistake?
1497What was the omission?
1497What way?
1497What will be the issue of such marriages?
1497What will be the issue of such marriages?
1497What will they doubt?
1497What, Thrasymachus, is the meaning of this?
1497What, again, is the meaning of light and heavy, if that which is light is also heavy, and that which is heavy, light?
1497What, are there any greater still?
1497What, he said, is there a knowledge still higher than this-- higher than justice and the other virtues?
1497What, now, I said, if he were able to run away and then turn and strike at the one who first came up?
1497What, then, he said, is still remaining to us of the work of legislation?
1497What, then, is the nature of dialectic, and what are the paths which lead thither?''
1497What?
1497What?
1497When Simonides said that the repayment of a debt was justice, he did not mean to include that case?
1497When a man can not measure, and a great many others who can not measure declare that he is four cubits high, can he help believing what they say?
1497When he is by himself he will not mind saying or doing many things which he would be ashamed of any one hearing or seeing him do?
1497When horses are injured, are they improved or deteriorated?
1497When is this accomplished?
1497When mankind see that the happiness of states is only to be found in that image, will they be angry with us for attempting to delineate it?
1497When they make them rightly, they make them agreeably to their interest; when they are mistaken, contrary to their interest; you admit that?
1497Where must I look?
1497Where then is he to gain experience?
1497Where then?
1497Where, then, is justice, and where is injustice, and in what part of the State did they spring up?
1497Whereas he who has a taste for every sort of knowledge and who is curious to learn and is never satisfied, may be justly termed a philosopher?
1497Whereas the bad and ignorant will desire to gain more than both?
1497Whereas the physician and the carpenter have different natures?
1497Whereas true love is a love of beauty and order-- temperate and harmonious?
1497Which appetites do you mean?
1497Which are they?
1497Which is a just principle?
1497Which of us has spoken truly?
1497Which years do you mean to include?
1497Who better suited to raise the question of justice than Cephalus, whose life might seem to be the expression of it?
1497Who can be at enmity with one who loves them, who that is himself gentle and free from envy will be jealous of one in whom there is no jealousy?
1497Who can hate a man who loves him?
1497Who can measure probabilities against certainties?
1497Who can weigh virtue, or even fortune against health, or moral and mental qualities against bodily?
1497Who is he?
1497Who is it, I said, whom you are refusing to let off?
1497Who is that?
1497Who that is not a miserable caitiff will refrain from smiling at the praises of justice?
1497Who then are those whom we shall compel to be guardians?
1497Who then can be a guardian?
1497Who was that?
1497Whom, I said, are you not going to let off?
1497Whose is that light which makes the eye to see perfectly and the visible to appear?
1497Whose?
1497Why do you ask such a question, I said, when you ought rather to be answering?
1497Why do you ask?
1497Why do you say so?
1497Why great caution?
1497Why indeed, he said, when any name will do which expresses the thought of the mind with clearness?
1497Why is that?
1497Why not, as Aeschylus says, utter the word which rises to our lips?
1497Why not?
1497Why not?
1497Why not?
1497Why not?
1497Why not?
1497Why should he?
1497Why should they not be?
1497Why so?
1497Why so?
1497Why so?
1497Why so?
1497Why, I replied, what do you want more?
1497Why, I said, do you not see that men are unwillingly deprived of good, and willingly of evil?
1497Why, I said, what was ever great in a short time?
1497Why, in the first place, although they are all of a good sort, are not some better than others?
1497Why, what else is there?
1497Why, where can they still find any ground for objection?
1497Why, yes, I said, of course they answer truly; how can the Muses speak falsely?
1497Why, yes, he said: how can any reasonable being ever identify that which is infallible with that which errs?
1497Why, you do not mean to say that the tyrant will use violence?
1497Why?
1497Why?
1497Why?
1497Why?
1497Will any one deny the other point, that there may be sons of kings or princes who are by nature philosophers?
1497Will any private training enable him to stand firm against the overwhelming flood of popular opinion?
1497Will he know from use whether or no his drawing is correct or beautiful?
1497Will he not also require natural aptitude for his calling?
1497Will he not be called by them a prater, a star- gazer, a good- for- nothing?
1497Will he not fancy that the shadows which he formerly saw are truer than the objects which are now shown to him?
1497Will he not have the notions of good and evil which the public in general have-- he will do as they do, and as they are, such will he be?
1497Will he not rather obtain them on the spot?
1497Will he not think that heaven and the things in heaven are framed by the Creator of them in the most perfect manner?
1497Will he not utterly hate a lie?
1497Will horsemen carry torches and pass them one to another during the race?
1497Will not a young man''s heart leap amid these discordant sounds?
1497Will not such an one from his early childhood be in all things first among all, especially if his bodily endowments are like his mental ones?
1497Will not the guardians be the smallest of all the classes who receive a name from the profession of some kind of knowledge?
1497Will not their eyes be dazzled, and will they not try to get away from the light to something which they are able to behold without blinking?
1497Will our citizens ever believe all this?
1497Will the creature feel any compunction at tyrannizing over them?
1497Will the just man or citizen ever be guilty of sacrilege or theft, or treachery either to his friends or to his country?
1497Will the just state or the just individual steal, lie, commit adultery, or be guilty of impiety to gods and men?
1497Will they disbelieve us, when we tell them that no State can be happy which is not designed by artists who imitate the heavenly pattern?
1497Will they doubt that the philosopher is a lover of truth and being?
1497Will they not be sophisms captivating to the ear, having nothing in them genuine, or worthy of or akin to true wisdom?
1497Will they not be vile and bastard, devoid of truth and nature?
1497Will they not be vile and bastard?
1497Will they not produce corn, and wine, and clothes, and shoes, and build houses for themselves?
1497Will you admit so much?
1497Will you enquire yourself?
1497Will you explain your meaning?
1497Will you repay me, then, what you borrowed in the argument?
1497Will you say that the world is of another mind?
1497Will you say whether you approve of my proposal?
1497Will you tell me?
1497Will you tell me?
1497Will you then kindly answer, for the edification of the company and of myself?
1497Would a man who wanted to be safe on a voyage take a bad pilot because he was rich, or refuse a good one because he was poor?
1497Would any one deny this?
1497Would he allow imitation to be the ruling principle of his life, as if he had nothing higher in him?
1497Would he not be worse than Eriphyle, who sold her husband''s life for a necklace?
1497Would he not have had many devoted followers?
1497Would he not rather say or do the same as his like in the same case?
1497Would not he who is fitted to be a guardian, besides the spirited nature, need to have the qualities of a philosopher?
1497Would that be your way of speaking?
1497Would the picture of a perfectly beautiful man be any the worse because no such man ever lived?
1497Would they not have been as unwilling to part with them as with gold, and have compelled them to stay at home with them?
1497Would you agree with me in thinking that the corrupting and destroying element is the evil, and the saving and improving element the good?
1497Would you call one of them virtue and the other vice?
1497Would you have me put the proof bodily into your souls?
1497Would you know the measure of the interval which separates them?
1497Would you like, for the sake of clearness, to distinguish which are the necessary and which are the unnecessary pleasures?
1497Would you say six or four years?
1497Would you say that all men are equal in excellence, or is one man better than another?
1497Would you say that knowledge is a faculty, or in what class would you place it?
1497Yes, I said, a jest; and why?
1497Yes, I said; and the higher principle is ready to follow this suggestion of reason?
1497Yes, I said; and this being true of one must be equally true of all number?
1497Yes, I said; and when a man dies gloriously in war shall we not say, in the first place, that he is of the golden race?
1497Yes, I said; but if this definition of justice also breaks down, what other can be offered?
1497Yes, Socrates, he said, and if you were providing for a city of pigs, how else would you feed the beasts?
1497Yes, but also something more-- Is it not doubtful whether our guardians are to be imitators at all?
1497Yes, but could this ever have happened if Homer had really been the educator of Hellas?
1497Yes, but do not persons often err about good and evil: many who are not good seem to be so, and conversely?
1497Yes, he replied, such is very often the case; but what has that to do with us and our argument?
1497Yes, he said, that sort of thing is certainly very blameable; but what are the stories which you mean?
1497Yes, he said; but what are the characteristics of this form of government, and what are the defects of which we were speaking?
1497Yes, he said; how can I deny it?
1497Yes, that is very true, but may I ask another question?--What do you consider to be the greatest blessing which you have reaped from your wealth?
1497Yes, the greatest; but will you explain yourself?
1497Yes; and is not this true of the government of anything?
1497Yes; but how in such partnerships is the just man of more use than any other man?
1497Yet if he is not the maker, what is he in relation to the bed?
1497Yet of all the organs of sense the eye is the most like the sun?
1497You are aware, I suppose, that all mythology and poetry is a narration of events, either past, present, or to come?
1497You are further aware that most people affirm pleasure to be the good, but the finer sort of wits say it is knowledge?
1497You have answered me, I replied: Well, and may we not further say that our guardians are the best of our citizens?
1497You know that they live securely and have nothing to apprehend from their servants?
1497You mean geometry?
1497You mean that they would shipwreck?
1497You mean that you do not understand the nature of this payment which to the best men is the great inducement to rule?
1497You mean to ask, I said, what will be our answer?
1497You mean to say that the people, from whom he has derived his being, will maintain him and his companions?
1497You mean when money is not wanted, but allowed to lie?
1497You mean, I suspect, to ask whether tragedy and comedy shall be admitted into our State?
1497You recognise the truth of what I have been saying?
1497You remember what people say when they are sick?
1497You remember, I said, how the rulers were chosen before?
1497You say that perfect injustice is more gainful than perfect justice?
1497You think that justice may be of use in peace as well as in war?
1497You will admit that the same education which makes a man a good guardian will make a woman a good guardian; for their original nature is the same?
1497You would agree with me?
1497You would allow, I said, that there is in nature an upper and lower and middle region?
1497You would argue that the good are our friends and the bad our enemies?
1497You would compare them, I said, to those invalids who, having no self- restraint, will not leave off their habits of intemperance?
1497You would not be inclined to say, would you, that navigation is the art of medicine, at least if we are to adopt your exact use of language?
1497You would not deny that those who have any true notion without intelligence are only like blind men who feel their way along the road?
1497and are not the best judges in like manner those who are acquainted with all sorts of moral natures?
1497and does not the actual tyrant lead a worse life than he whose life you determined to be the worst?
1497and even in their peculiar pursuits, are not women often, though in some cases superior to men, ridiculously enough surpassed by them?
1497and he who has tyrannized longest and most, most continually and truly miserable; although this may not be the opinion of men in general?
1497and how does he live, in happiness or in misery?
1497and how shall we manage the period between birth and education, which seems to require the greatest care?
1497and is no difference made by the circumstance that one of the fingers is in the middle and another at the extremity?
1497and must he not be represented as such?
1497and will any education save him from being carried away by the torrent?
1497and you would agree that to conceive things as they are is to possess the truth?
1497and''What is small?''
1497beat his father if he opposes him?
1497he said; are they not capable of defending themselves?
1497he said; ought we to give them a worse life, when they might have a better?
1497he says;''would you have me put the words bodily into your souls?''
1497or any greater good than the bond of unity?
1497or is any invention attributed to you, as there is to Thales and Anacharsis?
1497or is the subject- matter of opinion the same as the subject- matter of knowledge?
1497or that he who errs in arithmetic or grammar is an arithmetician or grammarian at the time when he is making the mistake, in respect of the mistake?
1497or the knowledge of all other things if we have no knowledge of beauty and goodness?
1497or will he be carried away by the stream?
1497or will he have right opinion from being compelled to associate with another who knows and gives him instructions about what he should draw?
1497or will you make allowance for them?
1497or would you include the mixed?
1497or would you prefer to look to yourself only?
1497or, rather, how can there be an opinion at all about not- being?
1497or, suppose them to have no care of human things-- why in either case should we mind about concealment?
1497shall we condescend to legislate on any of these particulars?
1497were you not saying that he too makes, not the idea which, according to our view, is the essence of the bed, but only a particular bed?
1497would he not desire to have more than either the knowing or the ignorant?
1497you are incredulous, are you?
22695Aught else?
22695For how will people talk of it?
22695Forc''d--"against your will"----"By law"--"by sentence of the court"--d''ye take me?
22695Prithee, my dearest Pamphilus, said I, Whence comes all this confusion? 22695 What have I done?
22695Why, how now? 22695 ''Tis at my cost.--Or wench? 22695 ''Tis he For certain.--Whom d''ye wait for, Parmeno, Before that door? 22695 ''Tis he For certain.--Whom d''ye wait for, Parmeno_ Colman 1768_--But is not that our Parmeno? 22695 ( said I,) are you A_ hare_ yourself, and yet would hunt for_ game_?
22695(_ Aside._)-- Well?
22695(_ Aside._)--Chremes, will you once Hear a fool''s counsel?
22695(_ Aside._)--Why do n''t you speak?
22695(_ CLITIPHO appears._) Who''s this?
22695(_ Comes forward._) But who''s this forces open our street door With so much violence?
22695(_ Comes forward._--But is not that Philotis?
22695(_ Coming forward._) Why how now, Sannio?
22695(_ Exeunt SOSIA, and the rest of the slaves with the baggage._ Master, are you here still?
22695(_ Exeunt THAIS and CHÆREA._[ Changes:_ Harper_ Lest any one should know me.--But is that Thais?
22695(_ Exit DAVUS._ What now?
22695(_ Exit MENEDEMUS._ What, make a jest of me?
22695(_ Exit to GLYCERIUM''S._ SCENE V._ MYSIS alone._ Can we securely then count nothing ours?
22695(_ Exit._[ Changes:_ Harper_ At t''other end o''th''street?
22695(_ Exit._[ Changes:_ Harper_ Now, in the name of heav''n and earth, what is''t You want?
22695(_ Exit._[ Changes:_ Harper_ What wench is there he has not lov''d?
22695(_ Exit._[ Changes:_ Harper_ Who ever saw a young man seiz''d and bound For rapes and lewdness in a house of harlots?
22695(_ Going up to him._) What''s the matter now?
22695(_ Ironically._)--What are you upon?
22695(_ PYTHIAS laughs._) What would you?
22695(_ Pointing._)--Where is your mistress and her daughter?
22695(_ Pretending to be in a passion with him._) What a most wicked scoundrel''s this?
22695(_ Returns._) You''re pleasure, Sir!--What, will not this content you?
22695(_ To himself._) And can he be so mad?
22695(_ To himself._) What would you, Sir?
22695(_ Turning about._) What shall I do?
22695(_ behind._) Whom does my son speak to?
22695(_ going up._) What now?
22695(_ overbearing._) Was I deceiv''d in thinking they were at it?
22695(_ peeping out._) Syrus?
22695(_ recovering._) But prithee, tell me, Sir, What brought you here?
22695(_ seeing him._) Oh my Parmeno Inventor, undertaker, perfecter Of all my pleasures, know''st thou my good fortunes?
22695(_ to CHREM._) What is''t you mean?
22695--"Is she in labor?
22695--(_To PHÆDRIA._) What has he done?
22695---- I stopp''d.--"D''ye know what I want with you?"--"What?"
22695----"And have not you a guest here of the name Of Pamphilus?"
22695------"But your name''s Callidemides?"
22695----And stole off In company with him?
22695----And then stole off In company with him?
22695----And then stole off In company with him?
22695----Did Chærea strip you?
22695----You can say none of this;_ Colman 1768_ Against my will?"
22695--And from what fears deliver''d us, his friends?
22695--And then With marriage solder up their harlot loves?
22695--But after this event, can you pretend You took the least precaution?
22695--But is my brother here?
22695--But is not that our Parmeno?
22695--But is''t not Bacchis that I see come forth From our new kinsman?
22695--But meanwhile(_ coming forward_) wherefore do my son and Syrus Loiter so long?
22695--But what a plague d''ye mean by fooling thus, Acting and talking like mere children with me?
22695--But what old gentleman is that I see At t''other end o''th''street?
22695--But what shall I do now?
22695--But where shall I inquire for him?
22695--But wherefore do I loiter thus?
22695--But who knock''d at the door?
22695--But who''s the furthermost?
22695--But why d''ye weep, and why are you so sad?
22695--But why delay t''accost th''old gentleman, And speak him fair at first?
22695--But why give in to this?
22695--But would you have me present at your conference With Bacchis?
22695--But, pray, has Thais been here long before me?
22695--D''ye know Cratinus''house?
22695--D''ye think to play your tricks on me, you rascal?
22695--Demipho, I appeal to you: for him I can not bear to speak to.--And were these His frequent journeys and long stay at Lemnos?
22695--Did not I buy you, rascal?
22695--Has he broke open doors?
22695--I told her, long time since:--on which she ask''d, Whether I had a country- house at Sunium?
22695--In short, what ground, what reason to expect That he should not commit the same hereafter?
22695--My brother''s house will be a thoroughfare; Throng''d with whole crowds of people; much expense Will follow; very much: what''s that to me?
22695--Oh Davus, am I then so much your scorn?
22695--Oh grant my mistress, Heav''n, a safe delivery, And let the midwife trespass any where Rather than here!--But what is it I see?
22695--Oh torture.--Did not you assure me, Sirrah, They were at variance?
22695--Or is''t because the_ men_ are ne''er to blame?
22695--Tell me, Philotis, where have you been gadding?
22695--To ask, why I''m so flutter''d?
22695--To the door!--nearer still!--There, there, d''ye hear?
22695--Was it not then your duty, in return, To see that nothing happen''d here to vex me?
22695--Was this your order, Demea?
22695--Well, be it so!--But what is to be done With our friend''s daughter?
22695--What can one do, or how proceed, with those, Who know of neither reason, right, nor justice?
22695--What if he should not come, Sir, must I wait Till evening for him?
22695--What is your answer?
22695--What is''t to me?
22695--What mischief has the rogue been at?
22695--What now?
22695--What shall I do?
22695--What shall I give you for this news?
22695--What''s he to do?
22695--Who was miss''d with her?--what she had when lost?
22695--Who was this friend of yours?
22695--Would you aught else with me?
22695--Would you aught else with us?
22695--Yet what was I afraid of, simpleton?
22695--You but a slave.--But if she had been prov''d Ever so plainly a relation, why Needed he marry her?
22695... D''ye understand my meaning, Scirtus?
22695... D''ye understand my meaning, Scritus?
22695A citizen?
22695A feast of scarce ten Drachms?
22695A foundling, say you?
22695A good man he?--To come, Although at Athens never seen till now, So opportunely on the wedding- day!---- Is such a fellow to be trusted, Chremes?
22695A plague upon your idle vaporing, You vagabond!--D''ye fancy we do n''t know you?
22695Accuse you wrongfully?----Is''t possible To speak too hardly of your late behavior?
22695Admit him, say you?
22695Advantage?
22695Again?
22695Again?
22695Ah, Parmeno, d''ye think me so ungrateful?
22695Ah, by what means can I acquit myself?
22695Ah, how much wiser were it, that you strove To quench this passion, than, with words like these To fan the fire, and blow it to a flame?
22695Ah, what have I committed?
22695Ah, what resentment can I bear to her, Who ne''er did any thing I''d wish undone, But has so often deserv''d well of me?
22695Ah, why should Geta seem thus terrified And agitated?
22695Ah, why will you attempt to comfort me?
22695Aliens and citizens?
22695Alone?
22695Alone?
22695Am I a stranger to you, Geta?
22695Am I then justly treated?
22695Am I your husband?
22695Amazing!--But our Syrus?
22695And Antipho, you say, has slunk away, Fearing his father''s presence?
22695And Glycerium, Has she found out her parents?
22695And Thais then returns me many thanks?
22695And am not I A full example for you?
22695And are you well assur''d of this?
22695And ca n''t you then contain yourself?
22695And can it, Menedemus, can it be, My father has so suddenly cast off All natural affection?
22695And can you then believe That I would trust you, rascal?
22695And dare you ask for what?
22695And do you think that words like these Can baffle me again?
22695And had you such a wretched voyage, say you?
22695And have you brought Nothing home with you but this single sentence?
22695And her return''s impossible?
22695And how the devil should he?
22695And how was it you lost her?
22695And if''tis bought by bounty and indulgence, I will not be behind- hand.--Cash will fail: What''s that to me, who am the eldest born?
22695And is he To marry her without a fortune?
22695And keep this?
22695And let not Thais suffer any one To do him violence!--But why do n''t I Rush in myself?
22695And may I hope?
22695And now What you in anger meditate-- I her?
22695And now what is''t the blockhead waits for, Syrus?
22695And pray what says she?
22695And put your clothes on?
22695And shall this next relation take her off?
22695And she, I warrant you, Now at your house, is my son''s mistress?
22695And taking him aside,"Now prithee, Phormio, Why do n''t you try to settle this affair By fair means rather than by foul?"
22695And that he does not know who Stilpho was?
22695And that this whole affair relates to you?
22695And the young bride Shall be her pupil?
22695And was Clinia Witness to this?
22695And was brought In your stead hither?
22695And what Business have you with him?
22695And what Business have you with him?
22695And what Can we do to him, fool?
22695And what d''ye think, Or know concerning her?
22695And what do you deserve for this?
22695And what if you should be so happy?
22695And what is her complaint?
22695And what prevents it''s being so?
22695And what said he?
22695And what says he, then?
22695And what then shall I do?
22695And what was that?
22695And what''s the meaning of your conversation?
22695And what''s this girl of yours?
22695And where she is, d''ye know?
22695And where''s the harm?
22695And who her father was, he does not know?
22695And why Ca n''t you do that yourself?
22695And why impossible?
22695And why so melancholy?
22695And why so monstrous?
22695And why, Dear Chremes?
22695And why?
22695And why?
22695And why?
22695And will he interrupt me?
22695And will you interrupt me?
22695And witnesses Suborn''d, to prove that she''s a citizen?
22695And ye; how go ye on here?--pretty well?
22695And you Dance hand in hand with them?
22695And you prohibit me to touch my own?
22695And you think It was a clever trick?
22695And, Thais, you maintain the same?
22695Angry again, good Demea?
22695Antiphila?
22695Appris''d of this, What kept you there so long then?
22695Ar''n''t you asham''d of such base treachery?
22695Are you afraid, young gentleman?
22695Are you asham''d?
22695Are you for that sport?
22695Are you here still?
22695Are you just now come?
22695Are you mad?
22695Are you mad?
22695Are you pleas''d then With this adventure, Micio?
22695Are you resolv''d, Wretch that you are, to thwart me ev''ry way?
22695Are you sure he''s gone into the country?]
22695Are you sure of this?
22695Are you sure on''t?
22695Are you sure on''t?
22695Are you the person I''m to deal with?
22695Are you there with me?
22695Are your players Unmindful of their cues, and want a prompter?
22695As if you had not been informed of this?
22695As if''twere possible to utter aught Severer than he merits!--Tell me then;(_ To PAM._) Glycerium is a citizen?
22695Ask''d what, Syrus?
22695Asks he for me?
22695At your desire, you rascal?
22695Aught else, my Thais?
22695Away!--who?
22695Away!--who?
22695Away!--who?
22695Away, you have deceiv''d us long enough, Fool''d us enough with your fine promises,"Cried she.--"What now?"
22695Ay?
22695Aye, by affection, and by blood your father, Who love you better than my eyes.--But why Do you not call the bride?
22695Aye, to be sure: why not?
22695Aye, what portion?
22695Aye-- in worse times than these-- and yet two talents?
22695Aye; shall I tell; or keep the matter secret?
22695Aye; to her next of kin: But why to us; Or wherefore?
22695Aye?
22695Aye?
22695Bacchis?
22695Bacchis?
22695Bacchis?
22695Bad mind, bad heart: But if I catch him at his tricks!--But what need words?
22695Be quick?
22695Before a judge?
22695Being at a loss, She ask''d, how long my parents had been dead?
22695Besides, who knows but he may take a wife?
22695Beyond all doubt; for who that could obtain Another, would endure a slave like this?
22695Bless me, what now?
22695Bought?
22695But all?
22695But behold the Captain?
22695But come, Say, wherefore you began this?
22695But come; now, Syrus, tell us, who''s that other?
22695But conscious of the fraud, without a word In answer or defense, to yield the cause Tamely to your opponents-- did the law Force you to_ that_ too?
22695But d''ye know What you''re to do?
22695But do you order me?
22695But have I the least hope?
22695But have you any Other commands?
22695But have you thoroughly examin''d, Nurse?
22695But how can I believe this, Parmeno?
22695But how d''ye know?
22695But how will you effect this?
22695But if I pass the night here, what excuse Then, Syrus?
22695But is it nothing That the old man now rages at us all, Unless we irritate him so much further As to preclude all hopes to pacify him?
22695But is that Geta?
22695But is that Thais?
22695But is that all?
22695But is this Simo?
22695But now we''re speaking of him, have you seen The lad to- day?
22695But now we''re speaking of him, have you seen The lad to- day?
22695But pray how came this sudden qualm upon you?
22695But prithee, husband, How can you tell that her aversion to me Is not a mere pretense, that she may stay The longer with her mother?
22695But prithee, is there nothing else?
22695But tell me first, can yon slave hold his peace?
22695But tell me, Has she had no physician?
22695But tell me, do you grant me my request That this your new- found daughter we d my son?
22695But tell me; Went he meanwhile to Bacchis?
22695But what a woman is your wife, Phidippus?
22695But what evil''s this?
22695But what evil''s this?
22695But what evil''s this?
22695But what is there in this That can affect the marriage?
22695But what means he then?
22695But what''s become of our club- supper?
22695But what''s this business, Parmeno?
22695But what''s your pleasure?
22695But what?
22695But what?
22695But what?
22695But what?
22695But where is Phædria, our judge?
22695But where is that Milesian?
22695But where shall I find Antipho?
22695But where shall I find Pamphilus, to drive His fears away, and make him full of joy?
22695But where''s my brother?
22695But where''s my brother?
22695But where''s my brother?
22695But whither shall I go?
22695But who''s this coming from our house?
22695But why believe you this?
22695But why do I delay to enter straight, That I may learn the truth, be what it will?
22695But with safety?
22695But yonder''s Phormio.--(_ Goes up._) What now?
22695But you appear uneasy: What''s the matter?
22695But, Syrus, say, what progress have you made In that affair I just now mention''d to you?
22695But, Syrus, this is flatly opposite To what I most devoutly wish, my marriage, For with what face shall I accost my father?
22695But, in the mean time, Had you not rather wait within, than here Before the door?
22695But, prithee, have you seen the lad to- day?
22695Buy him a mistress, Micio?--Is not justice My due from you, as well as yours from me?
22695By what means?
22695Byrrhia, what think you?
22695Ca n''t I prevail on you To stay but these three days?-- Nay, where d''ye go?
22695Ca n''t you be quiet?
22695Ca n''t you trust me then?
22695Can I aught reply To deeds like these?
22695Can I think on''t?
22695Can he then be so obstinately bent To tear me from Glycerium?
22695Can it be true?
22695Can it be wrong for me too, in my turn, To deceive them, by whom we''re all deceiv''d?
22695Can that be proper?
22695Can then such inbred malice live in man, To joy in ill, and from another''s woes To draw his own delight?--Ah, is''t then so?
22695Can you Believe that you shall go unpunish''d for it?
22695Can you Believe that you shall go unpunish''d for it?
22695Can you believe that you shall go unpunish''d?
22695Can you deceive him thus?
22695Can you remember?
22695Can you speak truth?
22695Chrysis Is then-- ha?
22695Chærea,(_ advancing_,) what''s all this flutter?
22695Clinia, if this be true, as sure it is, Who is more fortunate than you?
22695Come home?
22695Come what come might of ev''ry thing beside, Could you abandon the dear maid at home?
22695Come, let''s in?
22695Come, let''s to supper?
22695Come, open somebody The door immediately!--Who''s here?
22695Could she pledge my daughter Against my will?"
22695Could you so far deceive her easy faith, And leave her to misfortune and distress?
22695Crito, the Andrian?
22695D''ye call me, husband?
22695D''ye hear?
22695D''ye hear?
22695D''ye jest at such a time as this; And lend me no assistance by your counsel?
22695D''ye know Who I am, Æschinus?
22695D''ye know he has a son?
22695D''ye know it, Sir?
22695D''ye know my brother''s mistress here?
22695D''ye know our neighbor Menedemus?
22695D''ye know our old man''s elder brother, Chremes?
22695D''ye know the Portico Just by the market, down this way?
22695D''ye know the virgin, that was sent To- day to Thais, is a citizen?
22695D''ye know then who she is?
22695D''ye know this story?
22695D''ye know what I would have you do at present?
22695D''ye laugh at me?
22695D''ye laugh at me?
22695D''ye laugh at me?
22695D''ye laugh still?
22695D''ye linger?
22695D''ye mark The ragged dirty girl that he describ''d?
22695D''ye mark me?
22695D''ye mind what I say?
22695D''ye see him, Thais?
22695D''ye see, my Thais, what he is about?
22695D''ye take me now?
22695D''ye think She jests?
22695D''ye think me then so obstinate, that I, Who am her mother, should betray this spirit, Granting the match were of advantage to us?
22695D''ye think me then so vile?
22695D''ye think so?
22695D''ye think so?
22695D''ye think so?
22695D''ye think, Bless''d with an opportunity like this, So short, so wish''d for, yet so unexpected, I''d let it slip?
22695D''ye understand me?
22695D''ye understand my meaning, Scritus?
22695D''ye want my help?
22695Delights like these When you but think how sweet, how dear, they are; Him that affords them must you not suppose A very deity?
22695Deliver me?
22695Deny your own name?
22695Depend on my assistance:--have you any Further commands?
22695Desert her?
22695Did I command it?
22695Did I ever wish For any thing in all my life, but you In that same thing oppos''d me, Sostrata?
22695Did I not, Because you told me you''d be glad to have An Ethiopian servant- maid, all else Omitted, seek one out?
22695Did Parmeno Ever let slip an opportunity Of doing what he ought, Sir?
22695Did not I Say he had all the Attic elegance?
22695Did not I Say he had all the Attic elegance?
22695Did not I This very instant see you put your hand Into yon wench''s bosom?
22695Did not I give you warning?
22695Did not I say he''d take it ill, Phidippus, And therefore begg''d you to send back your daughter?
22695Did not I see this child convey''d by stealth Into your house last night?
22695Did not he Throw in a word or two?
22695Did not she bid you follow her?
22695Did not you inform him The bent of my affections?
22695Did not you say My father waited here?
22695Did not you say She only waited my son''s coming?
22695Did not you say you saw him out of town A little while ago?
22695Did not you_ Then_ take your son to task?
22695Did she know them?
22695Did what?
22695Did you Know him before?
22695Did you, or no, When I presented you the Virgin, promise, To give yourself some days to me alone?
22695Do I demand him back again I gave you?
22695Do I deny it?
22695Do I fear that?
22695Do I know it?
22695Do n''t you believe, then, we''ve been vilely us''d?
22695Do n''t you go mad?
22695Do n''t you see The Captain?
22695Do n''t you see him?
22695Do then: where is he?
22695Do to him, say you?
22695Do we then seem to you such proper folks To play these tricks upon?
22695Do what?
22695Do you Deny it?
22695Do you Desire it?
22695Do you commit these crimes?
22695Do you comprehend What he is talking of?
22695Do you doubt then, Clitipho?
22695Do you dread my cruelty?
22695Do you go hence into the country?
22695Do you hear?
22695Do you know my ill fortune?
22695Do you remember The plea whereon you both agreed to rest, At your first vent''ring on this enterprise?
22695Do you tell me of my son?
22695Do you then join him, fool?
22695Do you think I can with constancy hold out, and not Return before my time?
22695Do you think to play Your jests on me?
22695Do you threaten me?
22695Do you?
22695Does Chremes too confirm Glycerium mine?
22695Does he bring gifts alone?
22695Does he deny that Phanium''s his relation?
22695Does he seek me?
22695Does he think''Tis laudable to spoil his son?
22695Does he treat?
22695Does it appear to you to be the same?
22695Does she so?
22695Does this seem like a nuptial?
22695Does this, says he, Look like a wedding- supper for his son?
22695Drop her?
22695Ev''ry way unlucky: Ne''er to have seen her neither:--Prithee, tell me, Is she so handsome, as she''s said to be?
22695Falsely, hey?
22695First tell me, whence had you that coat?
22695For certain?
22695For fear I should divulge it?
22695For should I not have told My father, be it as it might, the whole?
22695For such a trifle, almost fly your country?
22695For that hard life Which I have ever led, my race near run, Now in the last stage, I renounce: and why?
22695For this was I so anxious to return?
22695For was there any other living reason Wherefore she should depart from you?
22695For what Affront''s more gross than to receive a friend Under your roof, and tamper with his mistress?
22695For what cause?
22695For what could I have done in this affair?
22695For what offense?
22695For what should you do here, where nobody, However good your precepts, cares to mind them?
22695For what?
22695For what?
22695For what?
22695For what?
22695For what?
22695For what?
22695For with what face can I return to her Whom I have held in such contempt?
22695Geta, what now?
22695Go on, I beg you, Syrus; and take heed You fill me not with idle joy.--What said she When you nam''d me?
22695Go to!--But hear Why I did call you hither?
22695Going?
22695Gone: Vanish''d: on board the ship.--But why d''ye loiter?
22695Good now, who''s that I see?
22695Ha''nt he?--and then how settled an assurance?
22695Ha, Menedemus, are you there?--Inform me, Have you told Clinia what I said?
22695Ha, Mysis, whence this child?
22695Ha, woman, Was''t you that laid it here?
22695Had she Any attendants?
22695Had she Any attendants?
22695Had your lady Any attendants?
22695Hark ye, Phrygia, Didst note the villa of Charinus, which That fellow just now show''d us?
22695Has Phormio had the money yet?
22695Has he no plot upon th''old gentleman?
22695Has he stol''n into town?
22695Has not she, as I said, a liberal air?
22695Has she yet left the Captain''s?
22695Hast any doubt, Gnatho, but I''m entirely ruin''d?
22695Have I demanded any thing unjust?
22695Have I deserv''d this?--Need I, Demipho, Number up each particular, and say How good a wife I''ve been?
22695Have I touch''d aught of yours, Sir?
22695Have you Inform''d him of the business?
22695Have you been talking with the girl, and told her Wherefore we bring your wife?
22695Have you heard of Antipho''s affair?
22695Have you heard, Chremes, of my son''s misfortune During my absence?
22695Have you no self- respect?
22695Have you no shame?
22695Have you spent all, nor left ev''n hope behind?
22695Have you struck out a scheme that pleases you?
22695Have you such leisure from your own affairs To think of those, that do n''t concern you, Chremes?
22695Have you the face to chide him?
22695Have you then heard it too?
22695Have you your wits, to ask me such a question?
22695Have you your wits?
22695Have you your wits?
22695Have you your wits?
22695Have you your wits?
22695Have you your wits?
22695Having discover''d such a plot on foot, Why did you not directly tell my son?
22695He had no mercy.--Was not he asham''d To beat a poor old fellow?
22695He is: what then?
22695He who knows not How to do this, let him confess he knows not How to rule children.--But is this the man Whom I was speaking of?
22695He!----Wherefore?
22695He''s well: hard by.--But have affairs turn''d out According to your wishes?
22695Hear him?
22695Hear you what he says?
22695Heav''n grant it may be as I wish!--Inform me, Whose daughter, said he, was the child?
22695Hegio, of our tribe?
22695Her age?
22695Her brother too a man of the first rank?
22695Her whom I have held Near to my heart, and cherish''d as my wife?
22695Her, who plac''d all her hopes in you alone?
22695Here, on the left; d''ye see him, ma''am?
22695Him that advis''d this action?
22695His father too, is he return''d?
22695His name?
22695His name?
22695His name?
22695His name?
22695Hold out?
22695How act?

22695How comes that?
22695How d''ye know?
22695How d''ye know?
22695How d''ye know?]
22695How did you know he was my brother then?]
22695How did you know then that he was my brother?
22695How did you know then that he was my brother?
22695How do you know, but Thais may obey My orders without force?
22695How do you know?

22695How?
22695I Be melancholy, who have such a brother?
22695I afraid?
22695I am: but why d''ye trifle?
22695I been inform''d?
22695I been inform''d?
22695I believe it; For well I know you have a liberal mind: But I''m afraid you are too negligent, For in what city do you think you live?
22695I can afford you neither.--But what mean you?]
22695I do lack Myself both help and counsel-- But what mean you?
22695I do lack Myself both help and counsel-- But what mean you?
22695I have crawl''d All the town over: to the gate; the pond; Where not?
22695I hear: what would you?
22695I heard it?
22695I heard it?
22695I know all that: But why, like fools, admit what we may shun?
22695I know the whole.--Is Simo in the house?
22695I marry her?
22695I not know you?
22695I pitied her: Her beauty, too, was exquisite.--In short, He mov''d us all: and Antipho at once Cried,"Shall we go and visit her?"
22695I said it would be so.--What has he done?
22695I said it would be so.--What has he done?
22695I said it would be so.--What has he done?
22695I saw old Canthara stuff''d out?
22695I see it.--Is there nothing here Displeasing to you?
22695I should remember her?
22695I should remember her?
22695I too deny: affirm?
22695I''ll devise Some means to- day to fit him for''t.--But now What would you have me do?
22695I''ll go and ask her.--(_ Going up._) What''s the matter, Pythias?
22695I''ll make you speak, you villain?
22695I''ll see if he''s at home;--but who comes here From Thais?--Is it he, or no?--''Tis he.------What manner of man''s here?--what habit''s that?
22695I''m ruin''d: fool, what have I done?
22695I, Sir?
22695I, Sir?
22695I--?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695I?
22695If I succeed, What can I rather wish, than to behold Their marriage- rites to- day?
22695If any one could know her?
22695If it were false, why did not then your son Refute it?
22695In my possession?
22695In what?
22695Indeed, is he?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Indeed?
22695Inform''d?
22695Is Pamphilus arriv''d?
22695Is Pamphilus within?
22695Is a girl rather plump?
22695Is all right?
22695Is he despicable?
22695Is he mad?
22695Is it a question, when there''s Æschinus To trouble us, what makes me so uneasy?
22695Is it a question, when there''s Æschinus To trouble us, what makes me so uneasy?
22695Is it because my daughter''s found you say this?
22695Is it come to this?
22695Is it for you then to foresee, or judge What''s of advantage to us?
22695Is it no crime, d''ye say, for a young man To take these courses?
22695Is it not better that my hopes are doubled?
22695Is it not most monstrous?
22695Is it not so?
22695Is it not then sufficient, if I give you The respite of a day, a little day, By putting off his wedding?
22695Is it possible?
22695Is it so, Davus?
22695Is it such a heinous crime For your young son, d''ye think, to have_ one_ mistress, While_ you_ have_ two_ wives?--Are you not asham''d?
22695Is it your own?
22695Is it your pleasure?
22695Is n''t that sufficient?
22695Is not this monstrous?
22695Is she alive To whom you gave the child?
22695Is she so handsome?
22695Is she then in labor, Geta?
22695Is she then in labor,_ Geta_?
22695Is she to be married, say you, To Pamphilus to- day?
22695Is she within too?
22695Is that Sufficient satisfaction for you?
22695Is that a doubt at present?
22695Is that a doubt?
22695Is that a question For you, who are her father, to demand?
22695Is that a question now?
22695Is that a question, when you durst To bring a rival to my face?
22695Is that a question, when you durst To bring a rival to my face?
22695Is that a question?
22695Is that a question?
22695Is that so wonderful?
22695Is that sufficient for you?
22695Is that your counsel?
22695Is the day past?
22695Is the door shut?
22695Is there Aught more between them?
22695Is there aught else of evil or misfortune You have not told me yet?
22695Is there aught worse?
22695Is there no faith in the affairs of men?
22695Is there then No diff''rence, think you, whether all you say Falls natural from the heart, or comes From dull premeditation?
22695Is this Your dealing, gentlemen?
22695Is this a thing To be disclos''d, d''ye think?
22695Is this honorable, Or just in Æschinus, to take away My property by force?
22695Is this just dealing, Dorio?
22695Is this man talking in his sleep, and dreams On what he wishes waking?
22695Is this she?
22695Is this to be a father?
22695Is this well done?
22695Is this your wedding- day?
22695Is this, Is this the liberty they boast of here, Common to all?
22695Is''t Clinia that I see, or no?
22695Is''t come to this, that I should be in fear Of starving, Syrus?
22695Is''t enough To plunge you over head and ears in joy?
22695Is''t even so, Sir?--Like a common harlot, When you''ve abus''d her, does the law ordain That you should pay her hire and whistle her off?
22695Is''t not sufficient to have done your duty, Unless the world approves it?
22695Is''t not?
22695Is''t possible You ca n''t endure one inconvenience in her?
22695Is''t such a jest to make fools of us, hag?
22695Is''t that the girl bemoans thus?
22695Is''t therefore so, Because that, in our own concerns, we feel Too much the influence of joy or sorrow?
22695Is''t thus you deal with me?
22695Is''t thus you treat me?
22695Is''t till his master runs away again, When he perceives himself no longer able To bear with the expenses of his mistress?
22695Just as you please.--Have you aught else to say Before I go?
22695Knave, d''ye shuffle with me?
22695Know him?
22695Know''st thou my Pamphila''s a citizen?
22695Know''st thou she''s betroth''d my wife?
22695Knows he already what a harlot is?
22695Look ye there!--Is''t new or strange, To be recall''d when one''s in haste?
22695Master, may I speak?
22695May I beg you then To use your int''rest here, and introduce me To Thais?
22695May I know, Sir, what good I''ve done to- day?
22695May I not then go near them?
22695Me d''ye question?
22695Me, Sir?
22695Me?
22695Meaning me?
22695Meaning my son''s well- acted transport?
22695Meaning, this was done By my advice?
22695Menedemus instantly Will furnish him with money for the wedding, To buy----d''ye take me?
22695Mine, Sir?
22695Mock you?
22695Must I Say nothing else?
22695Must I be plagued with the same thing so often?]
22695Must I believe it?
22695Must I still hear the same thing o''er and o''er?
22695Must I still hear the same thing o''er and o''er?
22695My brother, since he needs will have it so, May look to Æschinus himself.----But who Is coming yonder?
22695My brother?
22695My dear boy come?
22695My father gone into the country, say you?
22695My father''s?
22695My father?
22695My husband?
22695My intention?
22695My mother leave the town?
22695My name?
22695My son?
22695Nay, but d''ye know my meaning, Sannio?
22695Nay, now prithee come?
22695Nay, weep not, mistress; but consider rather What course were best to follow: to conceal This wrong, or to disclose it to some friend?
22695Nay, whither D''ye push me thus?
22695Need any man Torment himself?
22695Never saw him?
22695No occasion?
22695No thanks to Syrus neither.--But who''s here?
22695No, Sir?
22695No?
22695No?
22695No?
22695Nor would I now return, but in the hope Of still possessing her.--But where is Geta?
22695Nor your old man, when do you look for him?
22695Not know?
22695Not know?
22695Not much?
22695Not speak sincerely?
22695Nothing, say you?
22695Noting this,"How,"said I to myself,"so many then Anxious for me alone?
22695Now all the powers of heav''n Confound you, Laches, for thus teasing him?
22695Now do you think, I''ve told no lie?
22695Now for the first time, I, against my nature, Have added these three phrases,"Honest Syrus!---- How is''t?--How goes it?"
22695Now, Sir, do you believe that I am sober?
22695Now, in the name of heav''n and earth, what is''t You want?
22695Now?
22695O brother, brother, how shall I applaud thee?
22695Observe how lightly children squabble.--Why?
22695Of my son, Chremes?
22695Of the same name-- a little parasite---- D''ye know him?
22695Of what a disposition?
22695Of what crime?
22695Of what?
22695Of what?
22695Oft he comes open- mouth''d--"Why how now, Micio?
22695Oh Geta, What will become of you?
22695Oh rare, d''ye cry?
22695Oh tell me then at once, what would you?
22695Oh, Sir, Is that a doubt?
22695Oh, was that it?
22695Oh, why d''ye think?
22695On what account?
22695On what account?
22695On what account?
22695Or are you still to seek?
22695Or do n''t you understand this neither?
22695Or is there aught more welcome to you?
22695Or is this To be a son?--Were he my friend or brother, Could he be more complacent to my wish?
22695Or leave her modest and well nurtur''d mind Through want to be corrupted?
22695Or offer an excuse, how weak soe''er?
22695Or should I not much rather smell him out Six months before he did but dream of it?
22695Or so ungrateful, so inhuman, savage, Neither long intercourse, nor love, nor shame, Can make me keep my faith?
22695Or this?
22695Or this?
22695Or to snare those who spread their snares for you?
22695Or torn a coat?
22695Or was you prick''d in conscience for the sin The young man had committed through your means, That you must after tell his father of him?
22695Or which way run?
22695Or why you''re thus disorder''d and distress''d?
22695Or you Attempt to touch her, rascal?
22695Or, lest a citizen through poverty Bring shame upon her honor, does it order That she be given to her next of kin To pass her life with him?
22695Or?
22695Ours?
22695Out, rascal, out!--What are you resty, Sirrah?
22695Pamphilus''s?
22695Pamphilus''s?
22695Pamphilus''s?
22695Perhaps you''re not acquainted yet With what has happen''d here?
22695Permit him?
22695Phidippus, How shall I act?
22695Phædrus they said, Clinia, or Niceratus, For all these three then follow''d her.--"Well, well, But what of Pamphilus?"
22695Plac''d in the cabinet.--D''ye loiter, hussy?
22695Plac''d in the cabinet.--D''ye loiter, hussy?
22695Plague on it, what ill luck is this?
22695Plague, whom d''ye mean?
22695Poor Phanium left alone?
22695Pray now, How stands the case?
22695Pray, my dear, What''s this disturbance?
22695Prithee is not Chremes yonder?
22695Prithee now, who had Chrysis yesterday?"
22695Prithee, good nurse, how will it go with her?
22695Prithee, man, what now?
22695Prithee, then, Is there_ one_ way alone of going near them?
22695Pshaw, are you vain of your good luck?
22695Pythias breaks forth affrighted.--What means this?
22695Quite what?
22695Ravish''d?
22695Really?
22695Really?
22695Remember her?
22695SCENE V._ Enter MICIO._ MICIO(_ at entering._) My brother order it, d''ye say?
22695SIMO(_ apart._) If this knave Had, in the real nuptial of my son, Come thus upon me unprepar''d, what sport, What scorn he''d have exposed me to?
22695SYRUS(_ coming up to him._) Well, have you calculated what''s your due?
22695SYRUS(_ turning back._) Well, what now?
22695Say then, Is not this wedding irksome to my son, From his adventure with the Andrian?
22695Say you so?
22695Say you so?
22695Say you?
22695Say, Will you remember me?
22695Say, have you told my father any part Of this tale?
22695Say, how is she my kinswoman?
22695Say, is it sufficient?
22695Say, is she delighted with it?
22695Say, was''t not so?
22695Say, what do you propose?
22695Say, whose child have you laid here?
22695Says?
22695See him?
22695See that you keep him bound: and do you hear?
22695Seem I so proper to be play''d upon, With such a shallow, barefac''d, imposition?
22695Settle it as you please, you''ve my consent, But for the child, what shall be done with him?
22695Sha''n''t I obtain this neither, which is law?
22695Shall I Contract my daughter, where I never can Consent to marry her?
22695Shall I Permit you to go unrewarded; you, Who have restor''d me ev''n from death to life?
22695Shall I acquit myself?
22695Shall I disband the army?
22695Shall I go in then for that purpose?
22695Shall I not touch my own?
22695Shall I return?
22695Shall I speak the truth?
22695Shall I speak to him?
22695Shall I tell_ him_ of it, or no?
22695Shall her perverseness drive you out of town?
22695Shall she Pass for his too, because one''s not enough To answer for?
22695Shall then another bear her hence?
22695Shall then his memory oppose my bliss, When I can minister the cure myself?
22695Shall we expose him rather, Pamphilus?
22695Shall we, Geta, Suffer my Phædria to be miserable?
22695Shall you go on thus with impunity?
22695She restore Pamphila to you?
22695Should I have pleaded against him to whom I came an advocate?--But after all, What''s this affair to us?
22695Should I not be angry?
22695Should I not love him?
22695Should not you, then, endeavor to fool them?
22695Sir, your pleasure?
22695So I thought.--And what do you Intend to do?
22695So little, do you call it?
22695So many slaves to dress me?
22695So much for Demipho!--If I am wanted, I am at home, d''ye hear?
22695So much the worse.--Have you no client, friend, Or guest?
22695So, Sir, you say that this Glycerium Is an Athenian citizen?
22695Sold her?
22695Still, still, you, baggage, will you shuffle with me?
22695Still, woman, still D''ye contradict me?
22695Still?
22695Stilpho: Did you know Stilpho, Sir?
22695Such a one, As will embitter even life itself;_ Harper_ Too much the influence of joy or sorrow?
22695Sure?
22695Sure?
22695Take breath!--But why thus mov''d, good Geta?
22695Take her?
22695Taking your pleasure this long time?
22695Tell me then, Oh tell me, Davus, what were best to do?
22695Tell me!--or have you seen her?
22695Tell me, Charinus, has aught further passed''Twixt you and her?
22695Tell me, Where d''ye bring her, rogue?
22695Tell me, Where d''ye bring her, rogue?
22695Tell me, did pain attack her suddenly?
22695Tell me, do n''t you rave?
22695Tell me, what is''t?
22695Tell you?
22695Thais, Where are you gadding?
22695Than her?
22695Thank Heav''n, Some free- women were present at her labor?
22695That I have got two dupes instead of one?
22695That him?--that me?
22695That neither pity nor entreaties touch you?
22695That red- hair''d, blear- eyed, wide- mouth''d, hook- nos''d wench?
22695That thus thou bring''st it here?
22695The Eunuch''s fled.--What means all this?
22695The Girl is lost; I know not where she is, Nor where I am: ah, whither shall I trace?
22695The cause?
22695The man whose faith in money you have tried, D''ye fear to trust with words?--And to what end Should I deceive you?
22695The oft''ner, still the safer.--Tell me then, Didst ever hear of actions for assault And batt''ry brought against me?
22695The very man I wanted!--Do you know That you have been th''occasion of this quarrel?
22695Then too, oh shameless impudence, they cry,"Who then are you?
22695Then why do I delay to rush in on them?
22695There was I sitting, gaping like a fool, And running up, if any one appear''d,--"Are you, Sir, a Myconian?"
22695There, did I not assure you, gentlemen, That he had all the Attick Elegance?]
22695They say so!--Oh amazing impudence!---- Does he consider what he says?
22695They''re worthy of it.--What say you to this?
22695Think ye, because I''m mostly in the country, I''m ignorant of your proceedings here?
22695Think you I could speak one word?
22695Think you that I am other than I was, When first I gave my promise?
22695Think you this fault so angers him?
22695This is your time: enjoy it, while you may: Who knows if you may have the like again?
22695This too where''s he that knows you would not swear Was your contrivance?
22695Threescore years of age_ Colman 1768_ For in the name of heav''n and earth, what would you?
22695To Antipho?
22695To be reveng''d upon your enemies?
22695To drive her hence?
22695To justice?
22695To my father What shall I say?--And can I then refuse, Who have but now consented?
22695To one that had so much More than enough already?
22695To we d A girl of neither family nor fortune?
22695To what purpose, Syrus?
22695To whom give credit?--What?
22695To whom?----to you?
22695To you?
22695Too hard upon him!--what said he to''t?
22695Two talents?
22695Uneasy?
22695Unless perhaps she means,--a saucy baggage!-- To play the counterfeit, and feign herself That sister, who was lost so long ago?
22695Upon the cabinet.--D''ye loiter, hussy?
22695Upon what account?
22695Upon what account?
22695Upon what?
22695Vex''d at heart,_ What''s to be done?_ thought I.
22695Was ever any thing more infamous?
22695Was ever any thing so lucky?
22695Was ever man so grossly treated, think ye?
22695Was it a lie you told me?
22695Was it for her, a girl of such an age, To sit at home, expecting till a kinsman Came, nobody knows whence, to marry her?
22695Was it for this I held my life so dear?
22695Was not your visit yesterday a proof, From their denial to admit you to her?
22695Was this the cheapness that reduc''d our rents?
22695Was you Brought here to- day?
22695Was you afraid I''d break my contract with you?
22695Was''t fitting that the father should conform To the son''s humor, or the son to his?
22695Was''t not enough that he had done us wrong, But we must also throw him money too, To live till he devises some new mischief?
22695Was''t you that knock''d?
22695Well, Chremes, have you brought your daughter with you, On whose account you went to Lemnos?
22695Well, Is that sufficient, think ye?
22695Well, Pamphilus?
22695Well, Sir, Since you''re so positive, shall I entreat you To go to her?
22695Well, and what mean you?
22695Well, and what says she?
22695Well, but tell me, What business have you with that family?
22695Well, but the sum?
22695Well, do not be so!--Pray, now, what d''ye think Of this young handmaid?
22695Well, fool, what''s the matter?
22695Well, was n''t that enough?
22695Well, well then, what''s this scheme?
22695Well, well, I ca n''t Be peevish with you now-- But do you know Where Bacchis is?
22695Well, what is''t?
22695Well, what now, Davus?
22695Well, what says Sannio?
22695Well, what then?
22695Well, what?
22695Well, where''s the place?
22695Well, whom does she belong to?
22695Well, why do n''t you?
22695Well; and tell me, Pamphilus, What has our kinsman Phania left us?
22695Well; and what else?
22695Well?
22695Well?
22695Well?
22695Well?
22695Well?
22695Well?
22695Wench, did I speak to you or no?
22695Were it not better that we should dissemble Our knowledge of it, than pry into things Which to appear to know would make him hate us?
22695Were''t best I should go up to her, or wait a little, To gather something more from her discourse?
22695What Chærea?
22695What a wry mouth he makes!--Come, what''s the meaning Of your returning?
22695What are you about?
22695What are you at now, sauce- box?
22695What are you at?
22695What are you at?
22695What are you dismay''d Because he sticks so closely to his friend?
22695What are your proposals?
22695What became of him?
22695What business has he there?
22695What business have you with him?
