For when Dionysius was spoiling him of his 1057 VI, 21| baser metal? When the famous Dionysius-but it was the younger -despoiled 1058 IV, 22| same, those named in Greek Dioscori; of Aclmena and the same, 1059 V, 2| sweetness of mead, they dipped so long into the treacherous 1060 III, 26| conflict, and, in fine, in the dire, murderous contest of children 1061 V, 3| leave the all-important direction of the universe, and appear 1062 III, 19| understanding, forethought? that He directs towards fixed moral ends 1063 I, 5| gods, and that she became a direful destiny to her own and to 1064 VII, 32| Do the gods, then, become dirty; and to get rid of the filth, 1065 I, 62| that should waste away and disappear in death which is one in 1066 I, 21| lips suddenly changed into disappointing vinegar. 1067 VII, 39| he went to announce his disapproval of the dancer,-overcome 1068 VII, 41| sought both to allow what he disapproved, and to exact from others 1069 IV, 4| were sustained in countless disastrous battles? Was she snoring 1070 IV, 34| although it is much better to disbelieve the existence of the gods 1071 VII, 34| all these things, or to discern them by any power of reason, 1072 I, 37| of a favourable kind in discharging their functions. But if, 1073 II, 9| bodiless forms, to Plato, the disciple of Socrates? he who adds 1074 V, 35| refusal of it, the shaving and disclosure of the privy parts, the 1075 VI, 16| black, being fumigated and discoloured by the steam of sacrifices, 1076 III, 26| of thieves, the Bellonae, Discordiae, Furiae thieves, and we 1077 II, 76| and confiscation of goods, discords, wars, enmities, captures 1078 III, 18| bearing the meaning of the discourse; or if His words are poured 1079 II, 75| the earth, have made the discoverers almost doubt that they were 1080 II, 19| arts, that because of their discovery the soul should be believed 1081 I, 57| forth those things which in discreditable fables have attached the 1082 III, 40| and one supposition so discredited by another, that there is 1083 I, 30| the watery clouds? who has discriminated the productive powers of 1084 II, 56| dwelt upon in inquiries and discussions-from what parents they have sprung, 1085 I, 59| with those who are sick and diseased, to pour into their ears 1086 VI, 21| his face of its beard and disfiguring his countenance, and show 1087 V, 16| What mean the Galli with dishevelled hair beating their breasts 1088 II, 5| divorced, children to be disinherited by their parents, rather 1089 VII, 3| cause, and should not be disjoined from reason, so as to be 1090 V, 8| expose you to hatred and dislike, accompanied by implacable 1091 VII, 43| cause of such passion by his disobedient delay, than to do violence 1092 IV, 37| from its presence, and the disorder it causes. For it cannot 1093 I, 55| of the Father, which they dispensed in benefiting as well the 1094 V, 25| and baring her groins, displays all the parts which decency 1095 III, 43| and confusion of persons displeases the gods, and leads necessarily 1096 V, 28| in his power and at his disposal, but only immediately on 1097 IV, 16| by what judge, shall we dispose of so great a dispute? or 1098 IV, 18| true, but only confute and disprove that which lies open to 1099 II, 4| they can by no means be disproved? But He, too, does not prove 1100 III, 17| therefore prevented from disproving the opinions of others, 1101 VI, 2| have been given over to disquieting feelings, have been bound 1102 IV, 6| them over base things, and disreputable actions? 1103 I, 24| their craft should come into disrepute, cry aloud, The gods are 1104 II, 39| learn as men to feign, to dissemble, to lie, to cheat, to deceive, 1105 II, 48| reckless, blinded, false, dissemblers, liars, proud, overbearing, 1106 II, 55| the wise, and from their dissimilarity; but how it is possible 1107 V, 31| mutilated, debauched, skilled in dissimulation, thieves, held in bonds 1108 IV, 22| directions, as is the custom with dissolute youths; and in old age, 1109 I, 28| fleeting, and liable to dissolution. 1110 I, 65| physician from lands far distant and unknown to you before, 1111 V, 43| been put to flight by the distempered force of disease, you toss 1112 VI, 10| has grey ones; that he has distended nostrils whom you make and 1113 II, 54| human race is every moment distressed and afflicted. Then they 1114 II, 67| you indeed have the people distributed into five classes, as your 1115 III, 2| little ago compelled to diverge, that our defence may not, 1116 VII, 46| back covered with scales, diversified by spots of various colours; 1117 V, 14| hours, or old women seeking diversions for credulous children, 1118 VII, 38| of impending dangers been diverted, and the most troublesome 1119 I, 23| in heavenly things, and, divesting themselves of their own 1120 I, 64| men you name indigites and divi; and you worship with couches, 1121 II, 9| and to Archytas? he who divides the soul, and sets up bodiless 1122 VII, 15| but-and this belongs to the divine-that by their own power they 1123 IV, 11| And, when invoked by the diviners, do they obey the call, 1124 VII, 38| and the responses of the diviners-sacrifice has been offered, and certain 1125 VII, 51| this word and the power of divinity-to do nothing wickedly, nothing 1126 II, 5| they please, wives to be divorced, children to be disinherited 1127 V, 18| woman of the greatest wisdom divos inseruisse genitali, explicuisse 1128 V, 18| mysteries named initia, and not divulged openly to all, but to the 1129 I, 31| remains for frantic madness to do-to be uncertain, and to express 1130 I, 51| between the deed and the doer. To be able to transfer 1131 II, 8| and activity, which the doers undertake, engage in, and 1132 II, 56| undermine and overthrow the dogmas of others. Some teach and 1133 VII, 17| 17. Lo, if dogs-for a case must be imagined, 1134 II, 41| prosperous while such barbarous doings defiled their mouths and 1135 V, 28| validissimum praesecans dolat, runcinat, levigat et humani 1136 V, 17| breasts, and act as those dolefully circumstanced? What mean 1137 VII, 8| wailings, get little sparrows, dolls, ponies, puppets, with which 1138 I, 28| we are pronounced dull, doltish, fatuous, stupid, and senseless, 1139 I, 30| and to examine in whose domain you live? on whose property 1140 VII, 24| and that what has been dome in accordance with usage 1141 II, 47| flies, beetles, and bugs, dormice, weevils, and moths, are 1142 II, 7| in children, worn out in doting, silly, and crazy old age? 1143 V, 28| on every side, shuffling, doubling Tellene perplexities; while 1144 II, 7| in the Theoetetus is in doubt-whether we are ever awake, or whether 1145 V, 30| with avowed abuse. He who doubts the existence of the gods, 1146 II, 25| either loaded or unloaded; a dove, when set free, to fly back 1147 VI, 16| fear of destruction, by dove-tails and clamps and brace-irons; 1148 II, 76| and sickness, shipwrecks, downfalls, conflagrations, pestilences, 1149 II, 59| so ready to flow and run downwards. Explain, I say, and tell 1150 VII, 9| reverence and care? did I drag forward a dancer so that 1151 VII, 24| are given off after being drained of all their nourishing 1152 IV, 16| be given to herself; what drawn-out animal shall we place among 1153 IV, 36| be occupied with useless dreamings, demand that days be given 1154 VI, 3| earth, and of the lowest dregs of even baser matter. For 1155 VII, 29| honour of them, do they drench themselves, and make themselves 1156 VI, 4| wished to ward off from them drenching storms of rain, winds, showers, 1157 III, 15| that they go about clad in dresses and garments of various 1158 II, 42| how to catch the fat as it drips; that they should make cracknels 1159 III, 30| asserted to be the sun, driving a winged chariot, followed 1160 II, 8| laugh at our faith, and with droll jests to pull to pieces 1161 II, 74| sometimes fall which should have dropped on them while yet uninjured, 1162 VI, 16| ruins from the constant dropping of rain, at other times 1163 I, 50| dissimilar. He ordered the dropsical and swollen flesh to recover 1164 I, 48| order, leprosies, agues, dropsies, and all other kinds of 1165 I, 45| waters of the lethargic dropsy fled from, and that searching 1166 V, 11| plaiting pliant halters, drugging the waters harmless while 1167 V, 6| With the strongest wine he drugs a spring much resorted to 1168 I, 48| qualities belong to the drugs-not virtues inherent in him 1169 VII, 30| and become infamous as a drunkard, a luxurious and abandoned 1170 V, 11| strong wine, and after that drunkenness sprung from drinking, to 1171 I, 59| to pour into their ears dulcet sounds, not to apply a remedy 1172 V, 36| can be seen through by the dullest. For because it is very 1173 I, 47| deafness, deformity, and dumbness, if shrivelling of the sinews 1174 VII, 17| will nevertheless soon be, dung, and will become rotten 1175 III, 14| growth of their cheeks, dwarfed, tall, of middle size, lean, 1176 VII, 20| and horrible in colour? Dye the incense if it is offered, 1177 VII, 16| not sacrifice vultures, eagles, storks, falcons, hawks, 1178 IV, 8| received those names which are earlier in point of time? or that 1179 I, 28| harlots, who in old days earned the wages of impurity, and 1180 I, 48| physicians also, a creature earth-born and not relying on true 1181 IV, 6| produced; he gives strength to earthen vessels that they may not 1182 I, 53| thrown into confusion. An earthquake shook the world, the sea 1183 I, 8| time flows, at another time ebbs, evils alternating with 1184 IV, 16| sprung from the mud and eddies of a stream, and formed 1185 III, 13| eyeballs, overshadowed by the edges of the eyebrows; a nose, 1186 V, 15| handed down in order for the edifying of later times. Now, if 1187 VII, 36| children, coarsely and vulgarly educated. 1188 VI, 16| instructed you that you are effecting nothing, and giving your 1189 V, 1| eager to learn, by advice of Egeria concealed beside a fountain 1190 II, 28| which many years before, eighty if you choose to say so, 1191 VII, 4| trembles with joy, and is elated capriciously with gladness. 1192 III, 13| joints, fingers, and flexible elbows; feet to support their bodies, 1193 II, 67| ancestors once had? Do you ever elect magistrates by vote of the 1194 V, 22| of her chastity. Alcmena, Electra, Latona, Laodamia, a thousand 1195 I, 59| have spoken with greater elegance and richness, lest forsooth 1196 II, 11| they both speak in the most elegant language, and that their 1197 II, 22| horse, or ram, a camel, elephant, or kite? 1198 V, 26| accusations: the infamy of your Eleusinia is declared both by their 1199 V, 39| his debt? Of what do those Eleusinian mysteries and secret rites 1200 VI, 23| mysteries, and Isis? Where Liber Eleutherius, when his temple fell at 1201 VI, 9| supplication to something else-to hope for help from a deity, 1202 I, 29| From this do not causes emanate, through which our health 1203 VII, 5| common people, and find embedded in popular conviction, that 1204 VII, 30| with the half-extinguished embers we raise sweet smells, which 1205 II, 38| fullers, workers in wool, embroiderers, cooks, confectioners, dealers 1206 I, 17| forth, a panting breast emits a hurried breathing from 1207 VII, 16| which is given forth and emitted by burning hides, by bones, 1208 VI, 3| are needed by men, cats, emmets, and lizards, by quaking, 1209 III, 26| the most firmly-founded empires, lays cities in the dust, 1210 IV, 9| very often from the basest employments, and is always at the expense 1211 V, 5| the earth, at that time emptied of men; from which this 1212 VI, 13| to excel the other with emulous rivalry, not that Venus 1213 I, 29| given that common light, enabling us to see distinctly all 1214 II, 68| observance, and has it not been enacted by decree of the senate, 1215 III, 13| and with even less decency enclose them in earthly bodies. 1216 VI, 6| Immarnachus were buried in the enclosure of Eleusin, which lies near 1217 III, 10| parts ever prepared for encounter. It longs, I say, to see 1218 II, 63| whether they could have encountered the danger of death, if 1219 II, 67| been carried off? or, when encountering the dangers of war, do you 1220 I, 60| speak and teach, and without encroaching on the sovereignty and government 1221 II, 14| from body, not the last end-annihilation: this, I say, is man's real 1222 I, 34| raised huge Capitols. You are endeavouring to connect together things 1223 VII, 39| Then, when the games were ended, and the races not long 1224 II, 75| from its beginnings and endings, which an unbroken line 1225 I, 51| power of this kind? Did he endow with this right any priest 1226 IV, 27| that Luna lusted after Endymion; the Nereid after Aeacus; 1227 I, 2| themselves, whom an active energy with its first impulses 1228 IV, 33| are sought after by ears enervated by the frivolity of an unmanly 1229 III, 10| shattered and ruined bodies, are enfeebled by their sensuality? And 1230 VII, 31| and determine by a strict engagement that you should bare? "O 1231 IV, 20| take upon themselves the engagements of the bridal couch by prescription, 1232 I, 6| the pride and arrogance of enlightenment, trust to their own senses 1233 II, 76| of goods, discords, wars, enmities, captures of cities, and 1234 II, 39| savage, cherish hatred and enmity, make war upon each other, 1235 IV, 29| books were translated by Ennius into Latin that all might 1236 VI, 17| fastened to them, they should ennoble earthenware and the other 1237 VII, 44| what was brought except an enormous serpent? If we trust the 1238 V, 15| falsehood. For to us it is enough-who have proposed this day to 1239 II, 45| their lands as enemies, enslave the free, do violence to 1240 VI, 22| enjoying the pleasures which ensue. To ask, again, in like 1241 VI, 16| that they may be able to entangle in them buzzing and imprudent 1242 VII, 23| ferocity, although he should be enticed to do so with a thousand 1243 IV, 35| and do not the others find enticing pleasures in the wrongs 1244 II, 39| to cheat, to deceive, to entrap with a flatterer's abjectness; 1245 I, 27| thoughts, that whilst we entreat Him and strive to merit 1246 I, 26| is not aware that He is entreated by us in daily prayers? 1247 II, 65| given into His charge and entrusted to Him by God the Father, 1248 II, 41| of their purity; should entwine their necks with these, 1249 V, 35| have many meanings, and are enveloped in the veil of allegory 1250 VI, 23| Diana, when hers fell at Ephesus? Where Jupiter of Dodona, 1251 III, 37| statements about the same thing. Ephorus, then, says that they are 1252 I, 59| have on your side all the Epicadi, Caesellii, Verrii, Scauri, 1253 IV, 25| was it not your writer Epicharmus? Who that he was born within 1254 II, 78| as Arrhianus approves of Epictetus having said. We doubt, we 1255 IV, 25| loss of strength through epilepsy? 1256 II, 12| Phrygians; in Achaia, Macedonia, Epirus; in all islands and provinces 1257 II, 20| summer, but so regulated and equable that we suffer neither cold 1258 II, 23| roll, and the rest of the equipment by which the life of man 1259 I, 48| cause of ill health to be eradicated, and the bodies of the weak 1260 III, 29| of Juturna; and thus you erase the name of the god to whom 1261 V, 26| say you, O wise sons of Erectheus? what, you citizens of Minerva? 1262 V, 39| relieve her grief? That erecting of phalli and fascina, which 1263 VI, 6| the sanctuary of Polias, Erichthonius; while the brothers Dairas 1264 IV, 31| forgetfulness any one has erred either in speaking or in 1265 II, 60| and so important things, escapes you yourselves also, and 1266 VII, 16| turnips, onions, parsley, esculent thistles, radishes, gourds, 1267 I, 39| on aged trees; whenever I espied an anointed stone and one 1268 III, 2| say for the present: In essaying to approach the divine, 1269 II, 14| judgment and discernment, he essays a problem which cannot be 1270 I, 38| nature of its origin and essential substance, never before 1271 II, 26| necessity be considered essentially passive. But that which 1272 III, 2| cause to triumph in the establishing of their charge. For they 1273 I, 48| conjecture, and wavering in estimating probabilities. Now there 1274 I, 36| Serapis? Is it Isis, tanned by Ethiopian suns, lamenting her lost 1275 III, 40| nor names are known. The Etruscans say that these are the Consentes 1276 IV, 29| but men, by quoting either Euhemerus of Acragas, whose books 1277 V, 25| whom also flows the race of Eumolpidae, and from whom is derived 1278 VII, 33| Trachinioe, or the Hercules of Euripides, is acted? or does Flora 1279 VII, 46| into which it hurried, evading the gaze of the beholders? 1280 II, 49| been made which is just and evenly balanced. One, two, three, 1281 IV, 35| who cherish and guard the ever-burning fire; the whole people and 1282 I, 28| believed to be immortal, ever-existent, and subject to no extinction. 1283 V, 20| Brimo thereafter from her ever-raging passion: nor has she any 1284 V, 22| chastity. It is the same story everywhere-Jupiter. Nor is there any kind of 1285 VII, 11| diseases, the light of their eves quenched, and their ears 1286 I, 59| Sophists. For indeed it evidences a worthless heart to seek 1287 II, 56| unobjectionable and manifest, and evidently bears the stamp of truth? 1288 VII, 48| on account of the ancient evil-doers also the good of former 1289 IV, 7| also, preside over the evil-doing of camps, and the debaucheries 1290 V, 22| in crimes, an occasion of evil-speaking, a kind of open place into 1291 V, 28| according to the manner of men. Evius comes up froth the lower 1292 VII, 12| hundred oxen, and as many ewes with their lambkins, the 1293 VII, 41| what he disapproved, and to exact from others the penalty 1294 VII, 13| the respect of an inferior exalts and places above his own 1295 I, 43| things which you have not examined, and which are unknown to 1296 IV, 16| great a dispute? or what examiner will there be, what umpire 1297 IV, 23| and he who, as is said, examines our merits and demerits, 1298 I, 7| And if I prove this, if by examples and by powerful arguments 1299 I, 25| men barn against us with exasperation. You follow, our opponents 1300 IV, 26| god Hercules was born to exceed and surpass in such matters 1301 VII, 46| excessive size, although it exceeded in length of body and greatness 1302 I, 38| religion,-a blessing which exceeds and transcends all His other 1303 VII, 31| O sublimity of the gods, excelling in power, which thou shouldst 1304 I, 59| enjoying that which specially excels, and which nature has designed 1305 I, 47| great these things be, how excessively petty and trifling will 1306 III, 32| over markets, and over the exchange of goods and commercial 1307 II, 40| the risk of life, and, in exchanging goods always catch at a 1308 I, 19| as not only unstable and excitable, but, what all agree is 1309 I, 64| then, constrains you, what excites you to revile, to rail at, 1310 VII, 33| such wonders, burst into exclamations, again become gracious to 1311 VII, 12| and favour; or if fate is excluded and got rid of, it does 1312 V, 23| ankles smeared over with soft excrement, and bedaubed with the filth 1313 VII, 42| religion, we have reason to excuse Jupiter for being indignant 1314 I, 9| burning heat, and to devise excuses for drinking? All these 1315 V, 10| the human race shuns and execrates such unions; among the gods 1316 VII, 17| flee to a distance, and, execrating the smell, would beg pardon 1317 I, 54| hatred, and were held in execration? 1318 I, 3| did they enjoy a condition exempt from such disasters? 1319 IV, 36| freedom from public burdens, exemption and relief, together with 1320 II, 12| whether that which was openly exercised by Him or that which was 1321 IV, 36| days be given to you, and exhibition made without any interval? 1322 VII, 4| become mild as they are exhilarated by pleasures, that they 1323 II, 13| especially?

For Christ 1369 V, 35| that obscure, by means of fair-seeming allegories, which has been 1370 I, 19| amount of even moderate fairness. For what is a greater wrong 1371 II, 28| it holds tenaciously and faithfully the things which many years 1372 V, 2| from him the thunderbolts fall-how training in some kind of 1373 VII, 3| manner, and is destroyed, and falls into ashes,-unless perchance 1374 V, 2| they may be believed to be false-even if they are true-rather 1375 III, 10| daily increase in size, faltering in their steps, through 1376 VII, 26| superstition, acquainted with its fame and renown, as the rites 1377 VII, 13| any one, on seeing a man famed for his very great power 1378 II, 38| bird-catchers, weavers of winnowing fans and baskets of rushes?

But if, again, the reasoning 1833 VII, 51| worshippers, leaves the humbler provinces, and allies herself 1834 IV, 11| constitution, because we do not bow humbly in supplication to Mutunus 1835 V, 18| we should in like manner hunt up the other forms of baseness, 1836 III, 20| players on the harp and flute, hunters, shepherds, and, as there 1837 III, 21| they may be wounded and hurt, so that, when there is 1838 II, 39| their own filth, then be hushed by the swaying of the frightened 1839 II, 76| for what belongs to the husk of this flesh,-nay, more, 1840 IV, 26| another is engaged with Hyacinthus; that one burns with desire 1841 VII, 16| and foxes, camels, and hyaenas, and lions?

In the Milesian Didymae, 1846 VI, 6| the Delian Apollo, are not Hyperoche and Laodice buried, who 1847 III, 3| made this statement, on the hypothesis only that it is clear and 1848 IV, 26| desired Arsinoe, Aethusa, Hypsipyle, Marpessa, Zeuxippe, and 1849 V, 7| the pontifex relates, was Ia, veils the breast of the 1850 III, 10| full-breasted Ceres nursing Iacchus, as the muse of Lucretius 1851 IV, 14| heroic age, was the father of Ialysus; while the fifth is regarded 1852 VI, 11| branch instead of Cinxia; the Icarians an unhewn log instead of 1853 II, 42| these a sow's udder and iced puddings? Was it for this 1854 VII, 32| Ceres will be on the next Ides, for the gods have couches; 1855 III, 41| Greeks tell us, were named Idoei Dactyli. Varro, with like 1856 I, 8| weakens the human race? What if-and this seems nearest the truth-whatever 1857 I, 41| worship one who died an ignominious death, do not ye too, by 1858 II | Book II. -- -- 1859 III | Book III. --- -- 1860 VII, 24| it speaks, usually terms ilia; nor, in the same way, the 1861 III, 40| once, on fixed terms, girt Ilium with walls.

Plato, that sublime 1866 VII, 34| could ascribe to the gods ill-health, sickness, and bodily disease, 1867 I, 15| they are not wroth, and ill-to-be-appeased; and so the matter comes 1868 II, 77| not persecution, and our ill-treatment will not bring evil upon 1869 I, 43| flames and mad desires of illicit love? Or if they seem to 1870 I, 31| whatever they be.

But if the matter were 1883 VII, 28| it has a sweet smell, and imparts a pleasant sensation to 1884 II, 13| hindrance in your way to impede you when returning to your 1885 V, 10| distress as women do. That impels our curiosity to inquire, 1886 I, 38| shown that we are creatures imperfectly formed, that we trust in 1887 I, 48| brought to the sick and the imperilled? for if they have at any 1888 IV, 33| these loftily expressed impieties; and that which it was fitting 1889 I, 64| revile, to rail at, to hate implacably Him whom no man can accuse 1890 III, 21| swords, or forge their rustic implements? Do they need to be covered 1891 II, 64| made it. Must you be even implored to deign to accept the gift 1892 III, 10| under all these influences, imploring the aid of Juno Lucina. 1893 I, 20| intercourse with men; or if it is impolitic to assail us by violence, 1894 I, 49| wearied with prayers, and importuned with most piteous vows Aesculapius 1895 II, 32| and other hucksters and impostors; and that we may not be 1896 II, 65| reverse their inclinations; to impress forcibly on their minds 1897 VII, 28| has been formed to receive impressions from what is external, so 1898 IV, 28| was punished by suffering imprisonment; or that he, in a way, made 1899 III, 9| to make sport of its own improvidence, in providing them with 1900 VI, 16| entangle in them buzzing and imprudent flies while on the wing? 1901 IV, 16| the name of Minerva, an impudent parricide, and one defiled 1902 IV, 20| associate with them a birth, and impute to them a descent, which 1903 V, 4| greatest want of foresight is imputed to Jupiter? For what shows 1904 II, 44| have been prevented, by His inaction He made the guilt His own, 1905 IV, 36| and when you wish your inactive minds to be occupied with 1906 I, 3| the gods bring upon us, incensed as they are by your wrong-doings 1907 V, 10| among the gods there is no incest. And why, then, did his 1908 IV, 24| say that Jupiter himself incestuously married his sister? or, 1909 II, 45| steadiness, prone to vice, inclining to all kinds of sins; and 1910 I, 31| Thyself unseen, and who art incomprehensible! Thou art worthy, Thou art 1911 V, 1| the stage as stupid and inconsiderate, being tricked by the ambiguity 1912 VII, 45| But if you say this, the inconsistency of your own statements will 1913 III, 43| I myself, to avoid some inconvenience and peril, make supplication 1914 II, 32| and that we may not be inconvenienced by cold or intense heat, 1915 II, 29| increase, and wickedness remain incorrigible.
