264 Str. But the science we are hunting for was, and is, to be sought among tame creatures, more specifically creatures in herds.

264 Y. Soc. Yes.

264 Str. Let us, then, not make our division as we did before, with a view to all, nor in a hurry, with the idea that we may thus reach political science quickly, for that has already brought upon us the proverbial penalty.

264 Y. Soc. What penalty?

264 Str. The penalty of having made less speed, because we made too much haste and did not make our division right.

264 Y. Soc. And it was a good thing for us, Stranger

264 Str. I do not deny it. So let us begin again and try to divide the art of tending animals in common; for perhaps the information you desire so much will come to you in the ordinary course of our conversation better than by other means. Tell me—

264 Y. Soc. What?

264 Str. Whether, as I suppose, you have often heard people speak of this,— for I know you never actually saw the preserves of fish in the Nile and in the ponds of the Persian king. But perhaps you have noticed the like in fountain-pools.

264 Y. Soc. Yes, I have often seen the fish in fountain-pools and have heard many tales of those foreign preserves.

264 Str. And surely, even if you have not wandered over the plains of Thessaly, you have heard of goose-farms and crane-farms there and you believe that they exist.

264 Y. Soc. Yes, of course.

264 Str. The reason why I asked you all these questions is that the rearing of flocks is in part aquatic and in part an affair of the dry land.

264 Y. Soc. Yes, that is true.

264 Str. Then do you agree that we ought to divide the art of tending animals in common into corresponding parts, assigning one part of it to each of these two, and calling one the art of aquatic-herding and the other the art of land-herding?

264 Y. Soc. Yes, I agree.

264 Str. And surely we shall not have to ask to which of these two arts kingship belongs, for that is clear to everyone.

264 Y. Soc. Of course.

264 Str. Anybody could doubtless make a division of the art of tending herds on land.

264 Y. Soc. What would the division be?
