[4] Cardwell’s reading, [Greek: tautae gar omoioi, kai ta loipa] is
here adopted, as yielding a better sense than Bekker’s.
[5]The Great man will have a right to look for more Friendship than he
bestows, but the Good man _can_ feel Friendship only for, and in
proportion to, the goodness of the other.

[2] “I have sometimes considered in what troublesome case is that
Chamberlain in an Inn who being but one is to give attendance to many
guests. For suppose them all in one chamber, yet, if one shall command
him to come to the window, and the other to the table, and another to
the bed, and another to the chimney, and another to come upstairs, and
another to go downstairs, and all in the same instant, how would he be
distracted to please them all? And yet such is the sad condition of nay
soul by nature, not only a servant but a slave unto sin. Pride calls me
to the window, gluttony to the table, wantonness to the bed, laziness
to the chimney, ambition commands me to go upstairs, and covetousness
to come down. Vices, I see, are as well contrary to themselves as to
Virtue.” (Fuller’s Good Thoughts in Bad Times. Mix’t Contemplations,
viii.)

From not being to being . . . . Generation
From being to not being . . . . Destruction

From being to being less . . . . Diminution
From being here to being there . . Change of Place
From being in this way to being in that Alteration

a given time.

t. l.]
[9] Which is of course a [Greek: genesis].

Movement is.
