[221e]

Theaetetus
What is the hunting of the second? We have spoken about the first.

Stranger
We just now divided hunting as a whole into two classes, and made one division that of swimming creatures and the other that of land-hunting.

Theaetetus
Yes.

Stranger
And the one we discussed, so far as the swimming creatures that live in the water are concerned; but we left the land-hunting undivided, merely remarking that it has many forms.
