ΣΩ. ἄριστα, ὦ Τίμαιε, παντάπασί τε ὡς κελεύεις ἀποδεκτέον· τὸ μὲν οὖν προοίμιον θαυμασίως ἀπεδεξάμεθά σου, τὸν δὲ δὴ νόμον ἡμῖν ἐφεξῆς πέραινε. ΤΙ. λέγωμεν δὴ διʼ ἥντινα αἰτίαν γένεσιν καὶ τὸ πᾶν | 29d. and you who judge are but human creatures, so that it becomes us to accept the likely account of these matters and forbear to search beyond it.

Redeunt rursus ad coniecturam eamque in quattuor genera dispertiunt; nam aut quid sit quaeritur, hoc modo: naturane sit ius inter homines an in opinionibus; aut, quae sit origo cuiusque rei, ut quod sit initium legum aut rerum publicarum; aut causa et ratio, ut si quaeratur, cur doctissimi homines de maximis rebus dissentiant; aut de immutatione, ut, si disputetur, num interire virtus in homine aut num in vitium possit convertere. | |
