The first philosophers of Greece : $b An edition and translation of the remaining fragments of the pre-Sokratic philosophers, together with a translation of the more important accounts of their opinions contained in the early epitomes of their works

Transcriber’s Note: In the original, parts of this book were printed with the Greek text on one page with critical notes below, and the English translation on the facing page. This is not practical to reproduce in an e-text, so the Greek is given first, followed by the critical notes, followed by the translation.
