  1      I, V   |         acknowledge that the inferior class should be slaves of the
  2     II, IV  |             weaker ties, as a subject class should be, and they will
  3     II, IV  |               call the members of the class they have left brothers,
  4     II, V   |           unless indeed the governing class adopt the ingenious policy
  5     II, V   |               equally with the higher class or not, and the questions
  6     II, V   |         government, laws of the lower class, Socrates has nowhere determined:
  7     II, V   |             do so if the agricultural class have both their property

  9     II, VI  |               choice out of the first class, and of an equal number
 10     II, VI  |              number out of the second class and out of the third class,
 11     II, VI  |            class and out of the third class, but not in this latter
 12     II, VI  |          candidates out of the fourth class is only compulsory on the
 13     II, VI  |               an equal number of each class selected. Thus a preponderance
 14     II, VII |               of property, the higher class about the equality of honor;
 15     II, VIII|             but slaves of the warrior class. That they should share
 16     II, VIII|                must be taken from the class of those who carry arms.
 17     II, VIII|        cultivators of it, the warrior class will be identical with the
 18     II, VIII|               they will make a fourth class, which has no place in the
 19     II, XI  |      magistrates, and not some by one class of judges or jurors and
 20     II, XI  |              provide that the highest class, not only when in office,
 21     II, XII |           demagogues, whom the better class opposed. Solon, himself,

 23     II, XII |             zeugitae, or from a third class of so-called knights or
 24     II, XII |        knights or cavalry. The fourth class were laborers who had no
 25    III, V   |              And if none of the lower class are citizens, in which part
 26    III, V   |              some nations the artisan class were slaves or foreigners,
 27    III, V   |         object is that the privileged class may deceive their fellow
 28    III, XI  |              combined with the better class they are useful to the state (
 29    III, XI  |               physician of the higher class, and thirdly the intelligent
 30    III, XI  |              all arts there is such a class; and we attribute the power
 31    III, XV  |              constitution. The ruling class soon deteriorated and enriched
 32     IV, IV  |         element is the food-producing class, who are called husbandmen;
 33     IV, IV  |             husbandmen; a second, the class of mechanics who practice
 34     IV, IV  |              grace of life. The third class is that of traders, and
 35     IV, IV  |             in retail trade. A fourth class is that of the serfs or
 36     IV, IV  |            warriors make up the fifth class, and they are as necessary
 37     IV, IV  |             into the state a military class until the country has increased
 38     IV, IV  |           that is to say, the warrior class, the class engaged in the
 39     IV, IV  |                the warrior class, the class engaged in the administration
 40     IV, IV  |                these form the seventh class. The eighth class is that
 41     IV, IV  |             seventh class. The eighth class is that of magistrates and
 42     IV, IV  |                There only remains the class of those who deliberate
 43     IV, IV  |             of the common people, one class are husbandmen, another
 44     IV, IV  |             another are the seafaring class, whether engaged in war
 45     IV, V   |                if out of a privileged class, to an oligarchy. Another
 46     IV, VI  |              and not others. When the class of husbandmen and of those
 47     IV, VI  |             absolute exclusion of any class would be a step towards
 48     IV, VI  |                in which the governing class keep the offices in their
 49     IV, XI  |               are three elements: one class is very rich, another very
 50     IV, XI  |            roguery. Again, the middle class is least likely to shrink
 51     IV, XI  |             degraded. So that the one class cannot obey, and can only
 52     IV, XI  |             consists. And this is the class of citizens which is most
 53     IV, XI  |             by citizens of the middle class, and that those states are
 54     IV, XI  | well-administered in which the middle class is large, and stronger if
 55     IV, XI  |            the addition of the middle class turns the scale, and prevents
 56     IV, XI  |         faction; and where the middle class is large, there are least
 57     IV, XI  |            because in them the middle class is large; whereas in small
 58     IV, XI  |            because they have a middle class which is more numerous and
 59     IV, XI  |               when there is no middle class, and the poor greatly exceed
 60     IV, XI  |             reason is that the middle class is seldom numerous in them,
 61     IV, XII |             the artisans and laboring class, the last; and so with the
 62     IV, XII |             always include the middle class in his government; if he
 63     IV, XII |           oligarchical, to the middle class let him look; if he makes
 64     IV, XII |               laws try to attach this class to the state. There only
 65     IV, XII |               stable where the middle class exceeds one or both of the
 66     IV, XIII|            easy thing, since a ruling class is not always humane. And
 67     IV, XIII|            grew up out of the warrior class, and was originally taken
 68     IV, XIII|            had no considerable middle class; the people were weak in
 69     IV, XIV |          forms. When the deliberative class being elected out of those
 70     IV, XIV |          co-opted from the mass, or a class of officers should be appointed
 71     IV, XVI |             by vote. Or when a single class of causes are tried, the
 72      V, I   |            only members of the ruling class who are compelled to go
 73      V, I   |             is composed of the middle class more nearly approximates
 74      V, IV  |             the members of the ruling class into their quarrel and so
 75      V, IV  |          there is little or no middle class; for, if either party were
 76      V, VI  |        commence outside the governing class may be further subdivided.
 77      V, VI  |             by persons of the wealthy class who are excluded, as happened
 78      V, VI  |              as at Abydos, not by the class to which they belong, but
 79      V, VI  |            some members of the ruling class taking offense at their
 80      V, VI  |  constitutional government the middle class. But after a time of prosperity,
 81      V, VI  |           another variety of the same class; I mean to say, from those
 82      V, VIII|               Hence, if the governing class are numerous, many democratic
 83      V, VIII|             or to increase the middle class: thus an end will be put
 84      V, VIII|              be governed by the lower class. In order to avoid peculation
 85      V, VIII|            had wronged one of his own class. Provision should be made
 86      V, VIII|              members of the governing class.~
 87      V, IX  |      ourselves the sons of the ruling class in an oligarchy live in
 88      V, X   |          Others again grew out of the class which were chosen to be
 89      V, XII |             merely because the ruling class are lovers and makers of
 90      V, XII |             oligarchy, if the wealthy class are stronger than the people,
 91     VI, III |           that to which the wealthier class; in their opinion the decision
 92     VI, IV  |              are drawn from a certain class. Some of the ancient laws
 93     VI, IV  |               Besides, people of this class can readily come to the
 94     VI, IV  |            notables and of the middle class—beyond this not to go. When
 95     VI, VI  |               taken out of the better class of the people. The principle,
 96    VII, III |              and partly wrong." first class are right in affirming that
 97    VII, VIII|               a warlike and a wealthy class, and priests, and judges
 98    VII, IX  |          Again, there is in a state a class of warriors, and another
 99    VII, IX  |            merit. Besides, the ruling class should be the owners of
100    VII, IX  |        whereas mechanics or any other class which is not a producer
101    VII, X   |              husbandmen ought to be a class distinct from them; and
102    VII, X   |         character of the agricultural class; for I do not think that
103    VII, XIV |              that once for an the one class should rule and the other
104    VII, XIV |             given to one or the other class of actions must necessarily
105   VIII, VII |              relaxation of the second class also. And the music will
