12 Phileb|  seems to be akin both to the finite and to the mind or cause,
13 Phileb|     existence. (1) There is a finite element of existence, and (

19 Phileb|   There is a natural union of finite and infinite, which in hunger,
20 Phileb|    one and many, and have the finite and infinite implanted in
21 Phileb|    saying that God revealed a finite element of existence, and
22 Phileb|     mentioned before, one the finite, and the other the infinite;
23 Phileb|   certain sense many, and the finite may be hereafter discussed.~
24 Phileb|       class of the limited or finite; what do you say?~PROTARCHUS:
25 Phileb|    SOCRATES: The class of the finite which we ought to have brought
26 Phileb|      mean by the class of the finite?~SOCRATES: The class of
27 Phileb|    with them the class of the finite, takes certain forms.~SOCRATES:
28 Phileb|    right participation in the finite give health—in disease,
29 Phileb|       a like admixture of the finite and infinite come the seasons,
30 Phileb|       one class, and that the finite is a second class of existences;
31 Phileb|       True.~SOCRATES: And the finite or limit had not many divisions,
32 Phileb| unlimited, and the second the finite or limited; then follows
33 Phileb|   infinity, bound down by the finite, and may therefore be truly
34 Phileb|      of the four classes, the finite, the infinite, the composition
