And (1) since some recognize these 80 XIII, 2| others prior to these. Now (1) the accumulation becomes 81 XIII, 6| it follows that either (1) there is a first in it 82 XIII, 6| suppose that 2 is first after 1, and then comes 3 and then 83 XIII, 6| number is counted thus-after 1, 2 (which consists of another 84 XIII, 6| which consists of another 1 besides the former 1), and 85 XIII, 6| another 1 besides the former 1), and 3 which consists of 86 XIII, 6| which consists of another 1 besides these two), and 87 XIII, 6| number is counted thus-after 1, a distinct 2 which does 88 XIII, 6| does not include the first 1, and a 3 which does not 89 XIII, 6| of those who say that the 1 is the beginning and substance 90 XIII, 6| number is formed from the 1 and something else, almost 91 XIII, 6| magnitude. But how the first 1 was constructed so as to 92 XIII, 6| make 2. All who say the 1 is an element and principle 93 XIII, 7| other ideal numbers. Now (1) all units are associable 94 XIII, 7| number that comes from the 1 and the indefinite dyad, 95 XIII, 7| proceed immediately from 1 and the indefinite dyad, 96 XIII, 7| other. Again, since the 1-itself is first, and then 97 XIII, 7| then there is a particular 1 which is first among the 98 XIII, 7| others and next after the 1-itself, and again a third 99 XIII, 7| but one after the first 1,-so the units must be prior 100 XIII, 7| is a first unit or first 1, and also that the 2’s should 101 XIII, 7| is second after the ideal 1, and that a 2 is first after 102 XIII, 7| they make a first unit or 1, but not also a second and 103 XIII, 7| e.g. 2 by adding another 1 to the one, 3 by adding 104 XIII, 7| one, 3 by adding another 1 to the two, and similarly. 105 XIII, 7| them, from the 2 and the 1; for 2 becomes part of 3 106 XIII, 7| similarly 2 will consist of the 1-itself and another 1; but 107 XIII, 7| the 1-itself and another 1; but if this is so, the 108 XIII, 7| Yet there must, if the 1 and the indefinite dyad 109 XIII, 7| suppose that in general 1 and 1, whether the things 110 XIII, 7| suppose that in general 1 and 1, whether the things are 111 XIII, 7| that when we count thus – "1,2"-we do not proceed by 112 XIII, 7| when we count and say —1,2,3-we count by addition 113 XIII, 8| to them either from the 1 or the dyad; for the former 114 XIII, 8| existing things, and the 1-itself is the starting-point 115 XIII, 8| paradoxical that there should be a 1 which is first of 1’s, as 116 XIII, 8| be a 1 which is first of 1’s, as they say, but not 117 XIII, 8| number alone to exist, the 1 is not the starting-point ( 118 XIII, 8| starting-point (for this sort of 1 must differ from the-other 119 XIII, 8| successive numbers). But if the 1 is the starting-point, the 120 XIII, 8| meet in the one opinion. (1) Mathematical number cannot 121 XIII, 8| this reason that they give 1-itself the middle place 122 XIII, 8| number; in one way, when 1 operates on an even number, 123 XIII, 8| operates, the numbers got from 1 by doubling are produced; 124 XIII, 8| they identify the odd with 1; for if the odd implied 125 XIII, 8| might ask which is prior—1, or 3 or 2? Inasmuch as 126 XIII, 8| the number is composite, 1 is prior, but inasmuch as 127 XIII, 8| it is later. How then is 1 the starting-point? Because 128 XIII, 8| In which way, then, is 1 the starting-point? As has 129 XIII, 8| one. Accordingly they make 1 the starting-point in both 130 XIII, 8| universal definitions, so that (1) from the former standpoint 131 XIII, 8| to the same thing.~If the 1-itself must be unitary ( 132 XIII, 8| differs in nothing from other 1’s except that it is the 133 XIII, 8| the unit must be liker the 1-itself than the 2 is. But 134 XIII, 9| whether these succeed the 1-itself or not, and whether, 135 XIII, 9| things which answers to the 1 different thinkers describe 136 XIII, 9| no difficulty; but if the 1 and the numbers are separable, 137 XIII, 9| thought by them to be not 1 but something like 1-and 138 XIII, 9| not 1 but something like 1-and from other matter like 139 XIV, 1 | 1~REGARDING this kind of substance, 140 XIV, 1 | many, for if it were many, 1 would be few), there must 141 XIV, 2 | units besides the first 1, but do not go on to inquire 142 XIV, 3 | two kinds of number is a 1, unity will be something 143 XIV, 3 | other than those got from 1 by doubling.~It is strange 144 XIV, 5 | principles.~By intermixture? But (1) not everything is capable 145 XIV, 5 | like a syllable? But then (1) the elements must have 146 XIV, 5 | one thinker places the 1 as contrary to plurality, 147 XIV, 5 | the unequal, treating the 1 as equal, number must be 148 XIV, 5 | substances and of being-whether (1) as boundaries (as points 149 XIV, 6 | 1X2X3 must be measurable by 1, and 4X5X6 by 4 and therefore
