259 Str. But this is plain, that any king can do little with his hands or his whole body toward holding his position, compared with what he can do with the sagacity and strength of his soul.

259 Y. Soc. Yes, that is plain.

259 Str. Shall we say, then, that the king is more akin to the intellectual than to the manual or the practical in general?

259 Y. Soc. Certainly.

259 Str. Shall we, therefore, put all these together as one—the political art and the statesman, the royal art and the king?

259 Y. Soc. Obviously.

259 Str. Then we should be proceeding in due order if we should next divide intellectual science?

259 Y. Soc. Certainly.

259 Str. Now pay attention to see if we can perceive any natural line of cleavage in it.

259 Y. Soc. Tell us of what sort it is.

259 Str. Of this sort. We recognized a sort of art of calculation.

259 Y. Soc. Yes.

259 Str. It is, I suppose, most certainly one of the intellectual arts.

259 Y. Soc. Of course.

259 Str. And shall we grant to the art of calculation, when it has found out the difference between numbers, any further function than that of passing judgement on them when found out?

259 Y. Soc. No, certainly not.

259 Str. Every architect, too, is a ruler of workmen, not a workman himself.

259 Y. Soc. Yes.

259 Str. As supplying knowledge, not manual labor.

259 Y. Soc. True.

260 Str. So he may fairly be said to participate in intellectual science.

260 Y. Soc. Certainly.

260 Str. But it is his business, I suppose, not to pass judgement and be done with it and go away, as the calculator did, but to give each of the workmen the proper orders, until they have finished their appointed task.

260 Y. Soc. You are right.

260 Str. Then all such sciences, and all those that are in the class with calculating, are alike intellectual sciences, but these two classes differ from one another in the matter of judging and commanding. Am I right?

260 Y. Soc. I think so.

260 Str. Then if we bisected intellectual science as a whole and called one part the commanding and the other the judging part, might we say we had made fitting division?

260 Y. Soc. Yes, in my opinion.
