 2 Lysis|         No answer is given in the Lysis to the question, ‘What is
 3 Lysis|           friend of the two boys, Lysis and Menexenus. In the Charmides,
 4 Lysis|   described as middleaged; in the Lysis he is advanced in years.~
 5 Lysis| conversation between Socrates and Lysis, who, like Charmides, is
 6 Lysis|          sacrifice. Socrates asks Lysis whether his father and mother
 7 Lysis| Hippothales, the foolish lover of Lysis, respecting the style of
 8 Lysis|       Socrates, at the request of Lysis, asks him a new question: ‘
 9 Lysis|          three friends, Socrates, Lysis, and Menexenus, are still
10 Lysis|         manifest reference to the Lysis, in the eighth and ninth
11 Lysis|       love of Hippothales towards Lysis, and the childlike and innocent
12 Lysis|           the reserved and simple Lysis. Socrates draws out the
13 Lysis|        which are discussed in the Lysis. We may ask with Socrates,
14 Lysis|          of them suggested by the Lysis, others by modern life,
15 Lysis|                                   LYSIS, OR FRIENDSHIP~PERSONS OF
16 Lysis|           Menexenus, Hippothales, Lysis, Ctesippus.~SCENE: A newly-erected
17 Lysis|          ears with the praises of Lysis; and if he is a little intoxicated,
18 Lysis|      sleep murdered with a cry of Lysis. His performances in prose
19 Lysis|     behold he is blushing.~Who is Lysis? I said: I suppose that
20 Lysis|       celebrates, and grandfather Lysis, and the other ancestors
21 Lysis|        received by an ancestor of Lysis; this ancestor was himself
22 Lysis|        lookers-on; among them was Lysis. He was standing with the
23 Lysis|           to talk. This attracted Lysis, who was constantly turning
24 Lysis|       take a seat by us; and then Lysis, seeing him, followed, and
25 Lysis|          would be out of sight of Lysis, lest he should anger him;
26 Lysis|         he went away, and I asked Lysis some more questions. I dare
27 Lysis|       more questions. I dare say, Lysis, I said, that your father
28 Lysis|         of by another; while you, Lysis, are master of nobody, and
29 Lysis|           what can be the reason, Lysis, I said, why they allow
30 Lysis|        replied.~Then now, my dear Lysis, I said, you perceive that
31 Lysis|  impossible, he replied.~And you, Lysis, if you require a teacher,
32 Lysis|        did not want to be seen by Lysis; so upon second thoughts
33 Lysis|          sat down in his place by Lysis; and Lysis, in a childish
34 Lysis|           his place by Lysis; and Lysis, in a childish and affectionate
35 Lysis|       that you tell him yourself, Lysis, I replied; for I am sure
36 Lysis|         you have a share. Here is Lysis, who does not understand
37 Lysis|            And when I see you and Lysis, at your early age, so easily
38 Lysis|        been wrong, Socrates, said Lysis. And he blushed as he spoke,
39 Lysis|       interest which was shown by Lysis, and I wanted to give Menexenus
40 Lysis|         to him and said, I think, Lysis, that what you say is true,
41 Lysis|           Very true.~But see now, Lysis, whether we are not being
42 Lysis|           they both said.~And so, Lysis and Menexenus, we have discovered
43 Lysis|           pained, and said, Alas! Lysis and Menexenus, I am afraid
44 Lysis|       natural or congenial. Such, Lysis and Menexenus, is the inference.~
45 Lysis|          yes, said Menexenus. But Lysis was silent.~Then, I said,
46 Lysis|   necessity be loved by his love.~Lysis and Menexenus gave a faint
47 Lysis|           possible, then I think, Lysis and Menexenus, there may

49 Lysis|          parting: O Menexenus and Lysis, how ridiculous that you
