 19 Intro|        triangle. Let us then choose two triangles; one, the isosceles,
 20 Intro|          becomes one part fire, and two parts air. A volume of air
 21 Intro|       volume of air divided becomes two of fire. On the other hand,
 22 Intro|         other hand, when condensed, two volumes of fire make a volume

 57 Intro|           of numbers not made up of two factors, or, in other words,
 58 Intro|           solid. The squares of any two such numbers (e.g. 2 squared,
 59 Intro|            and 5 cubed) have always two mean proportionals (e.g.

 67 Intro|         Between fire and earth, the two extremes, he remarks that
 68 Intro|            introduced, not one, but two elements, air and water,
 69 Intro|           which are compared to the two mean proportionals between
 70 Intro|          mean proportionals between two cube numbers. The vagueness

 80 Intro|       indivisible, answering to the two spheres, of the planets

 99 Intro|            Here occur a sentence or two not wanting in Platonic
100 Intro|             more, let us reflect on two serious passages in which

104 Timae|      consist of fire and earth. But two things cannot be rightly
105 Timae|    compacted not by one mean but by two, God placed water and air
106 Timae|            each interval there were two kinds of means, the one
107 Timae|             divided lengthways into two parts, which he joined to
108 Timae|        their intervals in ratios of two and three, three of each,
109 Timae|           universe, and brought the two together, and united them
110 Timae|         affirms that in which these two are found to be other than

112 Timae|          and as human nature was of two kinds, the superior race
113 Timae|          the universe, enclosed the two divine courses in a spherical
114 Timae|          the position of one of the two concurring lights is reversed;
115 Timae|            right (He is speaking of two kinds of mirrors, first
116 Timae|            former; for then we made two classes, now a third must

118 Timae|           time, conceiving that the two would be enough. But now
119 Timae|           mind and true opinion are two distinct classes, then I
120 Timae|         being, maintains that while two things (i.e. the image and
121 Timae|        other and so be one and also two at the same time.~Thus have
122 Timae|         triangles are originally of two kinds, both of which are
123 Timae|            made up of one right and two acute angles; one of them

125 Timae|         victory. Then let us choose two triangles, out of which
126 Timae|         twice the lesser side. When two such triangles are joined
127 Timae|            at first, that which has two equal sides is by nature
128 Timae|            become one part fire and two parts air; and a single
129 Timae|       volume of air divided becomes two of fire. Again, when a small
130 Timae|        overcome and broken up, then two volumes of fire form one

135 Timae|            with it, which, when the two parts grow old and are disunited,
136 Timae|      mingled with them may occur in two substances composed of finer
137 Timae|             Now these bodies are of two kinds; some of them, such
138 Timae|             universe is parted into two regions, separate from and
139 Timae|           than the larger; for when two things are simultaneously

143 Timae|           the first place, they cut two hidden channels or veins
144 Timae|              having at the entrance two lesser weels; further he
145 Timae|       constructed one of these with two openings, and from the lesser
146 Timae|          into the mouth; there were two of them, and one he let
147 Timae|          The former he divided into two branches, both of which
148 Timae|           element; and as there are two exits for the heat, the
149 Timae|       sounds begin to pause and the two are equalized, the slower
150 Timae| intelligence; and of this there are two kinds; to wit, madness and
151 Timae|             are bad become bad from two causes which are entirely
