-.HERAKLEITOS εὐ" 48


‘
72. It is a delight to souls to become wet.
78. Whenever a man gets drunk, he is led about by
8 beardless boy, stumbling, not knowing whither he
goes, for his soul is wet.
74, The dry soul is wisest and best.
Byw. 75. <A dry beam is the wisest and best soul;
Fr. 76. Where the earth is dry, the soul is wisest and best.
If Fr. 74 is the genuine form, the corruptions are
very early. We cannot, however, regard all three
forms as genuine, and it is at least doubtful whether
Fr. 75 expresses a Herakleitean idea.
Zeller and others add to Fr. 74 the rest of the phrase
in Plutarch, ‘ flashing through the body as light-
ning through the cloud.’


77. Man, like a light in the night, is kindled and |
put out.
78. Life and death, and waking and sleeping, and
youth and old age, are the same; for the latter change
and are the former, and the former change back to the
latter.
79. Lifetime is a child playing draughts; the king-
dom is a child’s.
Clement understood αἰών to be Zeus ; Hippolytos made
it equivalent to αἰώνιος, the eternal (king).
