Book, Paragraph

 1   I, 1 |        actual words of Empedocles may be quoted in illustration~
 2   I, 2 |        sequel." Meantime, so much may be taken as established-viz.
 3   I, 3 |    not-being".~These distinctions may be taken as established:
 4   I, 3 | contrasted "poles" of the changes may be whether Fire and Earth,
 5   I, 3 |         them, whatever its nature may be qua underlying them,
 6   I, 5 |        And since this description may be understood in two different
 7   I, 5 |    whereby" it has been "altered" may have undergone no change,
 8   I, 5 |          food, which has come in, may sometimes expand as well
 9   I, 6 |         applied: but, though this may be taken to hold of "contact"
10   I, 6 |    without itself being moved, it may touch the "moved" and yet
11   I, 6 |            The account just given may serve to distinguish and
12   I, 8 |        matter how small the "big" may be), or to imagine "the
13   I, 10|        yet "not-be". The compound may he-actually other than the
14   I, 10|         nevertheless each of them may still he-potentially what
15   I, 10|        combined, and both of them may survive undestroyed. (For
16   I, 10|          Hence these difficulties may be dismissed: but the problem
17  II, 1 |         postulating four.)~Now we may agree that the primary materials,
18  II, 2 |          else-qua something which may well be naturally prior
19  II, 3 |           who advocate three. (We may compare what Plato does
20  II, 5 |           last point, however, we may admit, has not yet been
21  II, 6 |  transformed into one another-one may well wonder in what sense
22  II, 7 |         or the matter.~Perhaps we may suggest the following solution. (
23  II, 9 |            Hence, however true it may be that Fire is active,
24  II, 10|          order that these changes may not fail) and moved with
25  II, 10|       both changes, not one only, may result). Now the continuity
26  II, 11|       contrary, every one of them may fail to come-to-be. For
27  II, 11| come-to-be. For that some of them may fail to occur, is clear. (
