But inasmuch as the last premise, which originates action, is an opinion as to some
object of sense, and it is this opinion which the unrestrained man when under the
influence of passion either does not possess, or only possesses in a way which as we saw
does not amount to knowing it but only makes him repeat it as the drunken man repeats the
maxims of Empedocles, and since the ultimate term is not a universal, and is not deemed to
be an object of Scientific Knowledge in the same way as a universal term is, we do seem to
be led to the conclusion1 which
Socrates sought to establish.
