Philinus
Really, said Sarapion, do you not think so, and do you imagine that the sun is diiferent from Apollo? Cf. the note on 386 b, supra.
Yes, said I, as different as the moon from the sun; but the moon does not often conceal the sun, nor conceal it from the eyes of all, Cf. Moralia, 932 b. but the sun has caused all to be quite ignorant of Apollo by diverting the faculty of thought through the faculty of perception from what is to what appears to be.
