3002 Intro|      democracy may observe the law or may not observe it. But are
3003 Intro|            one, or of a few. And they may govern us either with or
3004 Intro|      difference. And as the physician may cure us with our will, or
3005 Intro|  scientifically: so the true governor may reduce or fatten or bleed
3006 Intro|             unjust, if by a poor man? May not any man, rich or poor,
3007 Intro|       assembly, in which all who like may speak, the skilled as well
3008 Intro|             unprofessional court, and may be condemned and punished
3009 Intro|             plutocracy; and democracy may also be divided, for there
3010 Intro|               play is ended, and they may quit the political stage.
3011 Intro|              light of our example. We may compare the state to a web,
3012 Intro|             under them. The beautiful may be subdivided into two lesser
3013 Intro|           ludicrous, but in the State may be the occasion of grave
3014 Intro|               of grave disorders, and may disturb the whole course
3015 Intro|          element of courage, which we may call the warp, with the
3016 Intro|               of temperance, which we may imagine to be the woof.
3017 Intro|             subjects in the Statesman may be conveniently embraced
3018 Intro|              of Plato; lastly (7), we may briefly consider the genuineness
3019 Intro|              the Cratylus, that there may be consistency in error
3020 Intro|           improbabilities of the tale may be said to rest. These are
3021 Intro|           Phaedo, or the Gorgias, but may be more aptly compared with
3022 Intro|              Laws. Some discrepancies may be observed between the
3023 Intro|               divine help. Thus Plato may be said to represent in
3024 Intro|         discussing these problems, we may be satisfied to find in
3025 Intro|            general spirit of the myth may be summed up in the words
3026 Intro|          wholly deserted by the gods, may contain some higher elements
3027 Intro|             the rule of Cronos. So we may venture slightly to enlarge
3028 Intro|              of generalization, there may be more than one class to
3029 Intro|            class to which individuals may be referred, and that we
3030 Intro|           people the vacant mind, and may often originate new directions

3032 Intro|       excessive length of a discourse may be blamed; but who can say
3033 Intro|             the life of the arts, and may some day be discovered to
3034 Intro|                Other forms of thought may be noted—the distinction
3035 Intro|              co-operative arts, which may be compared with the distinction
3036 Intro|       opposite reflection, that there may be a philosophical disregard
3037 Intro|        dialectician, who, although he may be in a private station,
3038 Intro|             and, without idealism, we may remark that knowledge is
3039 Intro|              from which positive laws may be attacked:—either from
3040 Intro|               of government, which we may venture to term, (1) the
3041 Intro|             time some little violence may be used in exterminating

3046 Intro|               of the law, yet the one may be by nature fitted to govern
3047 Intro|              interests and prejudices may sometimes be flattered and
3048 Intro|         Athens which he had known. It may however be doubted how far,
3049 Intro|             the wants of society, and may easily cause more evils
3050 Intro|            under legal regulation. It may be a great evil that physicians

3052 Intro|             their acts. Too many laws may be the sign of a corrupt
3053 Intro|             to the philosopher. There may have been a time when the
3054 Intro|             the Sophist and Statesman may be given here.~1. The excellence,
3055 Intro|           that in Plato’s writings we may expect to find an uniform
3056 Intro|              particular writings, but may be even an argument in their
3057 Intro|        thought and style disappear or may be said without paradox
3058 Intro|             different from them, they may be reunited with the great
3059 Text |           Stranger, that both of them may be said to be in some way
3060 Text |               the ruler of a country, may not he be said to have the

3062 Text |             of them; and this science may be called either royal or
3063 Text |             he has.~STRANGER: Then we may put all together as one
3064 Text |           STRANGER: Such as this: You may remember that we made an
3065 Text |         SOCRATES: True.~STRANGER: And may therefore be justly said
3066 Text |            That is evident.~STRANGER: May we not very properly say,
3067 Text |              At what point?~STRANGER: May not all rulers be supposed
3068 Text |           help of this distinction we may make, if we please, a subdivision
3069 Text |             point?~STRANGER: One part may be set over the production
3070 Text |               is complete; and now we may leave one half, and take
3071 Text |              take up the other; which may also be divided into two.~
3072 Text |              tending of living beings may be observed to be sometimes
3073 Text |           herding to be of two kinds, may cause that which is now
3074 Text |             heard, as you very likely may—for I do not suppose that
3075 Text |             of the Great King; or you may have seen similar preserves
3076 Text |          described.~STRANGER: And you may have heard also, and may
3077 Text |              may have heard also, and may have been assured by report,
3078 Text |             them in turn, you clearly may.~YOUNG SOCRATES: Then I
3079 Text |           been abundantly proved, and may therefore be assumed.~STRANGER:
3080 Text |           measure of difference which may be appropriately employed
3081 Text |              power of twice two feet, may be said to be the diameter
3082 Text |            STRANGER: Very likely they may be, and we will consider
3083 Text |             instruments. And the same may be said of tenders of animals
3084 Text |           apprehend, that although we may have described a sort of
3085 Text |             STRANGER: I think that we may have a little amusement;
3086 Text |               of which a good portion may with advantage be interwoven,
3087 Text |               interwoven, and then we may resume our series of divisions,
3088 Text |             what no one has told, and may as well be told now; for
3089 Text |              the heavenly motions, we may consider this to be the
3090 Text |          imagine so.~STRANGER: And it may be supposed to result in
3091 Text |            Enough of the story, which may be of use in showing us
3092 Text |              include all, and then we may wrap up the Statesman with
3093 Text |            horned and hornless, so we may divide by these same differences
3094 Text |             then to divide, for there may be still considerable divisions.~
3095 Text |            voluntary bipeds politics, may we not further assert that
3096 Text |            which superintends them we may call, from the nature of
3097 Text |           derived from the State; and may we not say that the art
3098 Text |               order that the argument may proceed in a regular manner?~
3099 Text |            the production of clothes, may be called co-operative,
3100 Text |               great art of adornment, may be all comprehended under
3101 Text |               separate the composite, may be classed together as belonging
3102 Text |            art which is set over them may be called the art of spinning
3103 Text |        STRANGER: Very likely, but you may not always think so, my
3104 Text |            your mind, as it very well may, let me lay down a principle
3105 Text |           rational ground on which we may praise or blame too much
3106 Text |               think, however, that we may fairly assume something
3107 Text |             Clearly, in order that he may have a better knowledge
3108 Text |               of tediousness which we may have experienced in the
3109 Text |               whether great or small, may be regarded by us as co-operative,
3110 Text |               STRANGER: A class which may be described as not having
3111 Text |              for the sake of defence, may be truly called defences,
3112 Text |               for amusement only, and may be fairly comprehended under
3113 Text |               STRANGER: That one name may be fitly predicated of all
3114 Text |         offspring of many other arts, may I not rank sixth?~YOUNG
3115 Text |          simple kinds—the whole class may be termed the primitive
3116 Text |           form a seventh class, which may be called by the general
3117 Text |      nourishment; small things, which may be included under one of
3118 Text |       includes them; but some of them may, with a little forcing,
3119 Text |           among ornaments, and others may be made to harmonize with
3120 Text |              nearer, in order that we may be more certain of the complexion
3121 Text |               rulers.~STRANGER: There may be something strange in
3122 Text |               various forms of States may the science of government,
3123 Text |              many kings. For kings we may truly call those who possess
3124 Text |            has these characteristics, may be described as the only
3125 Text |               form of bodily exercise may be.~YOUNG SOCRATES: True.~
3126 Text |            knows how the ancient laws may be improved, he must first
3127 Text |              improvement, and then he may legislate, but not otherwise.~
3128 Text |             if by a poor man, unjust? May not any man, rich or poor,
3129 Text |             and in the self-same way, may there not be a true form
3130 Text |         preserve them, and, as far as may be, to make them better
3131 Text |              of persons, whoever they may be, can attain political
3132 Text |              easy or familiar; but we may attempt to express it thus:—
3133 Text |           anybody who likes, whatever may be his calling, or even
3134 Text |           even if he have no calling, may offer an opinion either
3135 Text |               and anybody who pleases may be their accuser, and may
3136 Text |             may be their accuser, and may lay to their charge, that
3137 Text |               who is qualified by law may inform against him, and
3138 Text |             known to all, for anybody may learn the written laws and
3139 Text |             motives of the imitation, may not such an one be called
3140 Text |                we must.~STRANGER: You may say that of the three forms,
3141 Text |               from which the true one may be distinguished as a seventh.~
3142 Text |              one which has knowledge, may be set aside as being not

3145 Text |          common nature, most truly we may call politics.~YOUNG SOCRATES:
3146 Text |               or sluggishness; and we may observe, that for the most
3147 Text |            education, something noble may be made, and who are capable
3148 Text |              the stronger element and may be regarded as the warp,
3149 Text |              and wise, as far as this may be in a State, but if not,
3150 Text |              ways, and in those only, may we not say that union is
3151 Text |              during many generations, may at first bloom and strengthen,


The Symposium
     Part
3152 Intro|             most perfect in form, and may be truly thought to contain
3153 Intro|       prophecy glimpses of the future may often be conveyed in words
3154 Intro|             which ensue from them, as may be seen in the instance
3155 Intro|               of fantastic tricks; he may swear and forswear himself (
3156 Intro|            they say Jove laughs’); he may be a servant, and lie on
3157 Intro|           country is that the beloved may do the same service to the
3158 Intro|             of virtue which the lover may do to him.~A voluntary service
3159 Intro|               in one, then the lovers may lawfully unite. Nor is there
3160 Intro|              which you, Aristophanes, may supply, as I perceive that
3161 Intro|             all men to piety, that we may obtain the goods of which
3162 Intro|               result of his questions may be summed up as follows:—~
3163 Intro|               Mantinea, and which you may call the encomium of love,
3164 Intro|             and disappointed lover he may be allowed to sing the praises
3165 Intro|         composition; and every reader may form his own accompaniment
3166 Intro|               the sensual desires, or may even be regarded as a spiritualized
3167 Intro|        spiritualized form of them. We may observe that Socrates himself
3168 Intro|                The same passion which may wallow in the mire is capable
3169 Intro|            the ancients in music, and may be extended to the other
3170 Intro|             drawn to the life; and we may suppose the less-known characters
3171 Intro|             Sympos. with Phaedr.). We may also remark that Aristodemus
3172 Intro|           consent to the narrator. We may observe, by the way, (1)
3173 Intro|           takes his departure. (5) We may notice the manner in which
3174 Intro|        allowed to speak the truth. We may note also the touch of Socratic
3175 Intro|               to give. Lastly, (9) we may remark that the banquet
3176 Intro|         absurdity. His notion of love may be summed up as the harmony
3177 Intro|             youthful ever. The speech may be compared with that speech
3178 Intro|             he who has beauty or good may desire more of them; and
3179 Intro|             beauty or good in himself may desire beauty and good in
3180 Intro|              procreation of children, may become the highest aspiration
3181 Intro|        contradiction in nature, which may have existed in a far-off
3182 Intro|               king, or son of a king, may be a philosopher,’ so also
3183 Intro|              a probability that there may be some few—perhaps one
3184 Intro|               whom the light of truth may not lack the warmth of desire.
3185 Intro|               or statesmen great good may often arise.~Yet there is
3186 Intro|             of the real Socrates this may be doubted: compare his
3187 Intro|      Epaminondas and Pelopidas, if we may believe writers cited anonymously
3188 Intro|         existence of such attachments may be reasonably attributed
3189 Intro|               to be the worst, but it may be remarked that this very
3190 Intro|            beyond all praise). (2) It may be observed that evils which
3191 Intro|      different degrees of culpability may be included. No charge is
3192 Intro|             jealousy or party enmity, may have converted the innocent
3193 Intro|               licentiousness. Such we may believe to have been the
3194 Intro|             has been blasted by them, may be none the less resolved
3195 Intro|      so-called) Symposium of Xenophon may therefore have no more title
3196 Text |              go;’~and this alteration may be supported by the authority
3197 Text |           said Aristodemus, lest this may still be my case; and that,
3198 Text |         fashion, one or other of them may invent an excuse by the
3199 Text |            place next to him; that ‘I may touch you,’ he said, ‘and
3200 Text |             disposed to drink much, I may be forgiven for saying,
3201 Text |              proposal, as I am aware, may seem rather hard upon us
3202 Text |           intelligent nature; any one may recognise the pure enthusiasts
3203 Text |             future is uncertain; they may turn out good or bad, either
3204 Text |             and much noble enthusiasm may be thrown away upon them;
3205 Text |               for office or power. He may pray, and entreat, and supplicate,
3206 Text |             strangest of all, he only may swear and forswear himself (
3207 Text |       anything of the sort which they may observe, and their elders
3208 Text |             one, and then the beloved may honourably indulge the lover.
3209 Text |              one—then, and then only, may the beloved yield with honour
3210 Text |       productions of the earth, and I may say in all that is; such
3211 Text |          medicine I will begin that I may do honour to my art. There
3212 Text |       medicine consists: for medicine may be regarded generally as
3213 Text |            intemperate only that they may become temperate, and of
3214 Text |              pleasure be enjoyed, but may not generate licentiousness;
3215 Text |        desires of the epicure that he may gratify his tastes without
3216 Text |           ought to be noted as far as may be, for they are both present.~
3217 Text |                and you, Aristophanes, may now supply the omission
3218 Text |               be called to account, I may be induced to let you off.~
3219 Text |            they are satisfied if they may be allowed to live with
3220 Text |               the other’s sight, as I may say, even for a moment:
3221 Text |             all men to piety, that we may avoid evil, and obtain the
3222 Text |          ridicule, in order that each may have his turn; each, or
3223 Text |           Agathon, in the hope that I may be disconcerted at the expectation
3224 Text |          tribute to the god, then you may talk.~Very good, Phaedrus,
3225 Text |               of praising everything. May I say without impiety or
3226 Text |          words and in any order which may happen to come into my mind
3227 Text |            questions, in order that I may take his admissions as the
3228 Text |             eloquently of his nature, may I ask you further, Whether
3229 Text |              example in order that we may avoid misconception. For
3230 Text |           that what he has at present may be preserved to him in the
3231 Text |             and ignorance?’ ‘And what may that be?’ I said. ‘Right
3232 Text |            nor the foolish?’ ‘A child may answer that question,’ she
3233 Text |               her ‘That the beautiful may be his.’ ‘Still,’ she said, ‘
3234 Text |           same holds of love. For you may say generally that all desire
3235 Text |                Then love,’ she said, ‘may be described generally as
3236 Text |             maintain their young. Man may be supposed to act thus
3237 Text |                Of that, Socrates, you may be assured;—think only of
3238 Text |          about seeking beauty that he may beget offspring—for in deformity
3239 Text |     Lacedaemon, but of Hellas, as one may say? There is Solon, too,
3240 Text |             which even you, Socrates, may enter; to the greater and
3241 Text |              the birth thoughts which may improve the young, until
3242 Text |              to the sciences, that he may see their beauty, being
3243 Text |               immortal, if mortal man may. Would that be an ignoble
3244 Text |           have spoken, you, Phaedrus, may call an encomium of love,
3245 Text |              them from my own head, I may crown the head of this fairest

3258 Intro|               been wounded, and which may have taken place any time
3259 Intro|            Plato, that the Theaetetus may not have been all written
3260 Intro|     afterwards. Again, the Theaetetus may be connected with the Gorgias,
3261 Intro|             Schleiermacher); and both may be brought into relation
3262 Intro|          Socrates. The Philebus, too, may with equal reason be placed
3263 Intro|               language of Thrasyllus, may be called the Second Platonic
3264 Intro|           upon this view, the Sophist may be regarded as the answer
3265 Intro|             Any of these arrangements may suggest new views to the
3266 Intro|       Euclides’ house in Megara. This may have been a spot familiar
3267 Intro|               of the dialogue. Yet we may observe that Plato has himself
3268 Intro|                the invention of which may have been easily suggested
3269 Intro|             Corinth, in order that we may allow time for the completion
3270 Intro|              such a work (Muller). We may also remark that such a
3271 Intro|              chief respondent. But he may be fairly appealed to, when
3272 Intro|           Heraclitean fanatics, which may be compared with the dislike
3273 Intro|             his charge in the Laches, may be remarked by the way.
3274 Intro|             viz. that the philosopher may talk and write as he pleases.
3275 Intro|             reply that the perception may be true at any given instant.
3276 Intro|               in which this statement may be understood are set aside,
3277 Intro|         questions can be obtained, we may remark, that Plato had ‘
3278 Intro|         really too bad.’~The question may be raised, how far Plato
3279 Intro|          these persons, in whom Plato may perhaps have blended some
3280 Intro|                says Socrates, ‘that I may see in you, Theaetetus,
3281 Intro|               is a man of science, he may be a judge of our intellects.

3283 Intro|              be formed; and the agent may become a patient, and the
3284 Intro|               serious objection which may be urged against this doctrine
3285 Intro|              as an instance:—Socrates may be ill or he may be well,—
3286 Intro|             Socrates may be ill or he may be well,—and remember that
3287 Intro|             friend Protagoras?’~‘What may that be?’~‘I like his doctrine
3288 Intro|        remember?’ ‘He does.’ ‘Then he may remember and not see; and
3289 Intro|              if seeing is knowing, he may remember and not know. Is
3290 Intro|               defence; and already he may be heard contemptuously
3291 Intro|         although I admit that one man may be a thousand times better
3292 Intro|              is no such thing; but he may be cured of the evil habit
3293 Intro|              place of Theaetetus, who may be wiser than many bearded
3294 Intro|               opposite. The multitude may not and do not agree in
3295 Intro|               him; like ourselves, he may be long or short, as he
3296 Intro|              twenty-fifth generation, may, if he pleases, add as many
3297 Intro|        philosopher and gentleman, who may be excused for not having
3298 Intro|              virtue in order that you may seem to be good. And yet
3299 Intro|              expedient, although this may be the intention of them.
3300 Intro|             as he ignorantly fancied, may be expected to fall down
3301 Intro|            possible?’ This difficulty may be stated as follows:—~Either
3302 Intro|            the path of knowledge. But may there not be ‘heterodoxy,’
3303 Intro|      transference of opinion;—I mean, may not one thing be supposed
3304 Intro|      inconceivable.~But perhaps there may still be a sense in which
3305 Intro|              we know: e.g. Theaetetus may know Socrates, but at a
3306 Intro|        Socrates, but at a distance he may mistake another person for
3307 Intro|          person for him. This process may be conceived by the help
3308 Intro|              must be excluded. But he may err when he confuses what
3309 Intro|             remarking, that knowledge may exist without perception,
3310 Intro|       perception without knowledge. I may know Theodorus and Theaetetus
3311 Intro|        Theaetetus and not see them; I may see them, and not know them. ‘
3312 Intro|           heart of a man’s soul, as I may say in the words of Homer,
3313 Intro|              the words ker and keros, may be smooth and deep, and
3314 Intro|              objection occurs to him:—May there not be errors where
3315 Intro|               in his thoughts, but he may err in the addition of five
3316 Intro|             are at our wit’s end, and may therefore be excused for
3317 Intro|              from ‘possessing.’ A man may possess a garment which
3318 Intro|               he does not wear; or he may have wild birds in an aviary;
3319 Intro|              for under this figure we may describe different forms
3320 Intro|              what we know, because we may know in one sense, i.e.
3321 Intro|              that in the aviary there may be flying about mock birds,
3322 Intro|          persuade them, and the judge may form a true opinion and
3323 Intro|               another alternative:—We may suppose that the syllable

3326 Intro|           anything is composed. A man may have a true opinion about
3327 Intro|               planks of Hesiod. Or he may know the syllables of the
3328 Intro|              But on the other hand he may know the syllable ‘The’
3329 Intro|               name Theaetetus, yet he may be mistaken about the same
3330 Intro|              right opinion. Yet there may be a third meaning of the
3331 Intro|            difference.~For example, I may see a man who has eyes,
3332 Intro|             from any other man. Or he may have a snub-nose and prominent
3333 Intro|              is sensible perception,’ may be assumed to be a current
3334 Intro|               same as perception.’ We may now examine these words,
3335 Intro|      inductive portion of any science may be small, as in mathematics
3336 Intro|               and scientific facts he may be absolutely assured. And
3337 Intro|           change in himself or others may be deemed a philosopher.
3338 Intro|               speculation, or that we may do good without caring about
3339 Intro|      Euthydemus and Dionysodorus, and may be compared with the egkekalummenos (‘
3340 Intro|        account of him. His philosophy may be resolved into two elements—
3341 Intro|              not necessary, for there may be degrees of knowledge;

3344 Intro|             we may be learning, or we may have a general but not a
3345 Intro|           particular knowledge, or we may know but not be able to

3349 Intro|              for ever in language. It may or may not be a ‘gracious
3350 Intro|           ever in language. It may or may not be a ‘gracious aid’

3353 Intro|               act of violence, but he may truly persuade them of the
3354 Intro|             proposition.~The elements may be perceived by sense, but
3355 Intro|      universal and the false. Thought may be as much at fault as sight.
3356 Intro|              is that they can; for we may know a compound, which we
3357 Intro|               the parts, when united, may be more than all the parts
3358 Intro|              be knowledge. And yet we may observe, that there is in
3359 Intro|     illustrations of the second head, may be cited the remark of Socrates,
3360 Intro|             degrees in which the mind may enter into or be abstracted
3361 Intro|              this separation or union may be supposed to occur. And

3364 Intro|               an experience, which we may gather, if we will, from
3365 Intro|              or attend to them. Or we may assist the analysis by attempting
3366 Intro|               is to say, space, which may be explained in various
3367 Intro|          figures by which space is or may be intersected are absolutely
3368 Intro|        infinite or the infinitesimal, may be made the subject of reasoning
3369 Intro|           conceiving itself. The mind may be indeed imagined to contain
3370 Intro|               of our minds.~Again, we may compare the truths of space
3371 Intro|             of the consequences which may be inferred from them. We

3373 Intro|              various ways in which we may trace the connexion between
3374 Intro|            connexion between them. We may think of space as unresisting
3375 Intro|       rarefied into space. And motion may be conceived as the union
3376 Intro|             more strictly, arithmetic may be said to be equally applicable
3377 Intro|               in time is illusion, we may well ask with Plato, ‘What
3378 Intro|            conditions of sensation we may proceed to consider acts
3379 Intro|            acts of seeing and hearing may be almost unconscious and
3380 Intro|             be almost unconscious and may pass away unnoted; they
3381 Intro|               pass away unnoted; they may also leave an impression
3382 Intro|               The act of recollection may be compared to the sight
3383 Intro|              recollection.~And now we may suppose that numerous images

3389 Intro|            Returning to the senses we may briefly consider two questions—
3390 Intro|            our impressions of hearing may be affected by those of
3391 Intro|              our impressions of sight may be corrected by the touch,

3394 Intro|             on the level of sense.~We may, if we please, carry this
3395 Intro|             sensations themselves. We may say with Protagoras and
3396 Intro|          hypothesis or outline, which may be filled up in many ways
3397 Intro|     complicated to be ascertained. It may be compared to an irregular

3404 Intro|             who are engaged in it. It may also be found that the discussion

3423 Intro|                But however certain we may be of the connexion between
3424 Intro|      principal subjects of Psychology may be summed up as follows:—~
3425 Intro|              distinct processes which may be described by the words, ‘
3426 Intro|              appear and reappear, and may all be regarded as the ever-varying

3428 Intro|               in childhood not a word may be remembered, and yet,
3429 Intro|         exists in various degrees. It may be imperceptible or hardly
3430 Intro|             or hardly perceptible: it may be the living sense that
3431 Intro|              is an illusion: as there may be a real freedom without
3432 Intro|         consciousness of it, so there may be a consciousness of freedom
3433 Intro|               without the reality. It may be regarded as a higher
3434 Intro|         inattention, sleep, death. It may be illustrated by its derivative
3435 Intro|     capricious and uncertain sort. It may be briefly described as
