 3  Gorg|        falls in battle, we do not suppose that death or wounds are
 4  Gorg|      banish the poets, how can we suppose that such utterances have

 6  Gorg|           the other hand, will he suppose that God has forsaken him

 9  Gorg|           and to one another. And suppose, again, I were to say that
10  Gorg|        stab, or slay his friends. Suppose a man to have been trained
11  Gorg|        GORGIAS: Well, Socrates, I suppose that if the pupil does chance
12  Gorg|      refute and be refuted: for I suppose that you would claim to
13  Gorg|    question which Gorgias, as you suppose, is unable to answer: What
14  Gorg|        not answer?~POLUS: Well, I suppose not.~SOCRATES: Then if great
15  Gorg|          say, do you reply to me. Suppose that I go into a crowded
