Note 177 — AUXILIARIES TO THE PERCEPTION OF INTELLIGIBLE NATURES.
Thomas Taylor translation
In the original, και δια τουτων παλιν τῃ πενιᾳ συνειναι, καιπερ παροντος αυτου; but for αυτου, I read πορου; as it appears to me that Porphyry is here alluding to what is said by Diotima, in the Banquet of Plato, concerning the parents of Love, viz. that they are Poverty and Porus, or Plenty.
