Table of Contents:
ὁρὠ, ἀκούω: Socrates desires to emphasize that in the past as well as the present the same thing has been repeating itself.
ἀγανακτούντων: depends upon αἰσθάνομαι with the omission of αὐτῶν. The pl. is due to the plural idea, and to the ἀνδρῶν. The statement holds good for all, though the action affects the individual only.
ἄρα: postpositive, as in Prot. 355 b ὡς δὲ ταῦτα γελοῖά ἐστι κατάδηλον ἔσται ἐὰν μὴ πολλοῖς ὀνόμασι χρώμεθα ἄρα. Here it serves to characterize the assumption as a result that follows of itself.
