236 Intro|         times of Hellas; the higher love, of which Plato speaks,
237 Intro|         definition of the nature of love, and no order in the topics (
238 Intro|            dialogue which treats of love must necessarily have been
239 Intro|           feeling, the enthusiastic love of the good, the true, the

246 Text |            be esteemed, because his love is thought to be greater;
247 Text |           he will prefer any future love to his present, and will

249 Text |           meet about some affair of love either past or in contemplation;
250 Text |    non-lovers, and whose success in love is the reward of their merit,
251 Text |             by the former; for more love than hatred may be expected
252 Text |            Such are the feats which love exhibits; he makes things
253 Text |    advantage, being not mastered by love, but my own master; nor
254 Text |         have loyal friends, for our love of them arises not from
255 Text |           empty soul; for they will love you, and attend you, and
256 Text |             those who are worthy of love; nor to those who will enjoy
257 Text |           censure of the world. Now love ought to be for the advantage

413 Intro|            would be invincible. For love will convert the veriest
414 Intro|            women also. Such was the love of Alcestis, who dared to

416 Intro|            the gods, who honour the love of the beloved above that

418 Intro|       second is the coarser kind of love, which is a love of the
419 Intro|            kind of love, which is a love of the body rather than
420 Intro|            a mat at the door of his love, without any loss of character;
421 Intro|       others honourable. The vulgar love of the body which takes
422 Intro|            and so is the interested love of power or wealth; but
423 Intro|            power or wealth; but the love of the noble mind is lasting.
424 Intro|           these two customs—one the love of youth, the other the

446 Intro|           speak the true praises of love, but now he finds that they
447 Intro|           be summed up as follows:—~Love is of something, and that
448 Intro|           something, and that which love desires is not that which
449 Intro|           desires is not that which love is or has; for no man desires
450 Intro|             which he is or has. And love is of the beautiful, and
451 Intro|             desiring the beautiful, love also wants and desires the
452 Intro|        Agathon, had spoken first of love and then of his works. Socrates,
453 Intro|          Agathon, had told her that Love is a mighty god and also
454 Intro|            shown him in return that Love was neither, but in a mean
455 Intro|     ignorant. Such is the nature of Love, who is not to be confused
456 Intro|      confused with the beloved.~But Love desires the beautiful; and
457 Intro|           good to be happiness, and Love to be the desire of happiness,
