Stranger

Str. You divided all productive art widthwise, as it were, before; now divide it lengthwise.

Theaetetus

Theaet. Assume that it is done.

Stranger

Str. In that way we now get four parts in all; two belong to us and are human, and two belong to the gods and are divine.

Theaetetus

Theaet. Yes.

Stranger

Theaetetus

Theaet. Tell me again how each part is distinguished.

Stranger

Str. We know that we and all the other animals, and fire, water, and their kindred elements, out of which natural objects are formed, are one and all the very offspring and creations of God, do we not?

Theaetetus

Theaet. Yes.

Stranger

Str. And corresponding to each and all of these there are images, not the things themselves, which are also made by superhuman skill.

Theaetetus

Theaet. What are they? 10
