Dialogue

 1 Euthyd|          that the brothers shall question Cleinias. ‘Cleinias,’ says
 2 Euthyd|      poor notion. He proceeds to question Cleinias. The result of
 3 Euthyd|        there is no answer to the question, ‘good in what?’ At length
 4 Euthyd|        is to teach it. This is a question which will hereafter be
 5 Euthyd|          can be taught—from this question he is relieved by the ingenuous
 6 Euthyd|        youth, overpowered by the question blushed, and in his perplexity
 7 Euthyd|        on asking another similar question, which might be compared
 8 Euthyd|   heavens, I said; and your last question was so good!~Like all our
 9 Euthyd|      similar trick in the second question, when they asked you whether
10 Euthyd|        of Axiochus, let me put a question to you: Do not all men desire
11 Euthyd|          happy?—that is the next question. Shall we not be happy if
12 Euthyd|   perhaps, is even a more simple question than the first, for there

21 Euthyd|      throw off all restraint; no question in fact was too bad for
22 Euthyd|   ashamed, Socrates, of asking a question when you are asked one?~
23 Euthyd|          Yes, I said; but if the question which you ask in one sense
24 Euthyd|        will answer more than the question; for I did not ask you,
25 Euthyd|       have always known; but the question is, where did I learn that
26 Euthyd|        Let me ask you one little question more, said Dionysodorus,
27 Euthyd|          said Ctesippus, but the question which I ask is whether all
28 Euthyd|         at having to answer this question, and I thought that I was
