13. πάντα χρήματα: exaggeration—as if Socrates held ἐπιστήμη to be the ἀρχή of the universe and said ἐπιστήμη πάντα as
Heraclitus might say πῦρ πάντα.
18. ὅλον: i.e. ἡ ἀρετή—the gender is like αὐτό in line 3.
Sauppe cites Meno, 79B ἐμοῦ δεηθέντος ὅλον εἰπεῖν τὴν ἀρετήν.
Plato. Protagoras. J. Adam & A. M. Adam. Cambridge. Cambridge University Press. 1893.
