Note 2 — INTRODUCTION AND ANALYSIS. (continued 4)
Benjamin Jowett translation
Pol. v. 12, § 8:—‘He only says that nothing is abiding, but that all things change in a certain cycle; and that the origin of the change is a base of numbers which are in the ratio of 4 : 3; and this when combined with a figure of five gives two harmonies; he means when the number of this figure becomes solid.’
