 809 Text |         begin, and consider what her nature is. She has one name, and
 810 Text |             you at first what is the nature of the good, affirmed to

 812 Text |            that I, Protarchus, am by nature one and also many, dividing
 813 Text |            unity is of this concrete nature, there is, as I was saying,
 814 Text |     controversy.~PROTARCHUS: Of what nature?~SOCRATES: In the first
 815 Text |          knowledge of the number and nature of sounds is what makes
 816 Text |              low, and the number and nature of the intervals and their
 817 Text |           and what is the number and nature of them, and the same of
 818 Text |          have chosen contrary to the nature of the truly eligible, and
 819 Text |           which dwells in their very nature, prevent their having any
 820 Text |             mark or seal of some one nature, if possible, set upon them—
 821 Text |               SOCRATES: And now what nature shall we ascribe to the
 822 Text |             acknowledged it to be by nature one?~PROTARCHUS: Yes.~SOCRATES:
 823 Text |            see what is the place and nature of this life and to what
 824 Text |              that pleasure is of the nature of the infinite—in which
 825 Text |        elements which enter into the nature of the bodies of all animals,
 826 Text |              any power worthy of its nature. One instance will prove
 827 Text |          SOCRATES: And in the divine nature of Zeus would you not say
 828 Text |             is also a dissolution of nature and a generation of pain.~
 829 Text |             of harmony and return to nature is the source of pleasure,
 830 Text |              all things to their own nature is pleasure?~PROTARCHUS:
 831 Text |           instances admitting of the nature of good.~PROTARCHUS: You
 832 Text |           analysis helps to show the nature of both.~PROTARCHUS: Then
 833 Text |         outset we must determine the nature and seat of desire.~PROTARCHUS:
 834 Text |          very different; what common nature have we in view when we
 835 Text |              to be something of this nature?~PROTARCHUS: Of what nature?~
 836 Text |          nature?~PROTARCHUS: Of what nature?~SOCRATES: An object may
 837 Text |         arise out of a corruption of nature caused by concretions, and
 838 Text |            detestation which a noble nature has of the power of pleasure,
 839 Text |             Having thus examined the nature of pleasure from both points
 840 Text |             if we wanted to know the nature of any quality, such as
 841 Text |              we want to see the true nature of pleasures as a class,
 842 Text |             or in the derangement of nature, a man experiences two opposite
 843 Text |          description is very true to nature.~SOCRATES: And in these
 844 Text |     considerations learn to know the nature of the ridiculous.~PROTARCHUS:
 845 Text |             then, let us examine the nature of envy.~PROTARCHUS: Proceed.~
 846 Text |      difficulty in showing the mixed nature of fear and love and similar
 847 Text |             in them is of the purest nature; and then the truest elements
 848 Text |              manner have this double nature, and yet only one name.~
 849 Text |          himself to be occupied with nature is really occupied with
 850 Text |           given to one thing and one nature; Socrates, on the other
 851 Text |            and further says, that in nature as in name they are two,
 852 Text |            now we must ascertain the nature of the good more or less
 853 Text |         understanding about the true nature of this and of all other
 854 Text |             whether this omnipresent nature is more akin to pleasure
 855 Text |            ridiculous or disgraceful nature of the action makes us ashamed;
 856 Text |            and the like, the eternal nature has been found.~PROTARCHUS:
 857 Text |              than the unsatisfactory nature of both of them.~PROTARCHUS:
 858 Text |          nearer and more akin to the nature of the conqueror than pleasure.~

 866 Text |             of Protagoras is of this nature: may you not learn of him
 867 Text |            me that appears to be his nature.~And what, Socrates, is
 868 Text |            also of a fair and gentle nature. I thought that I heard
 869 Text |              and others small, whose nature was to fly in the air or
 870 Text |           this virtue to be given by nature, or to grow spontaneously,
 871 Text |            they suppose to be due to nature or chance; they do not try
 872 Text |             this kind is the work of nature and of chance; whereas if
 873 Text |              think, Socrates, of the nature of punishment, you will
 874 Text |            me that justice is of the nature of a thing, would you not?
 875 Text |               that justice is of the nature of the just: would not you?~
 876 Text |             of thing which is of the nature of the holy, or of the nature
 877 Text |        nature of the holy, or of the nature of the unholy?’ I should
 878 Text |          Then holiness is not of the nature of justice, nor justice
 879 Text |          justice, nor justice of the nature of holiness, but of the
 880 Text |              of holiness, but of the nature of unholiness; and holiness

 910 2    |          affirm to be the origin and nature of justice; it is a mean

 915 2    |              truth, first, about the nature of justice and injustice,
 916 2    |        inquiry would be of a serious nature, and would require very
 917 2    |             that we inquire into the nature of justice and injustice,

 944 4    |         wisdom, has been ordained by nature to be of all classes the
