Notes (1)
- For this headword see already omicron 313.
- 1cf. Plotinus Enneads, 1.2.2.4-10. According to Plotinus' text, it is plain that the word "form" (
ei)=dos ) should be assumed. In the passage at issue Plotinus says: "the one demands the presence of the same form in those things that are similar". See phi 238. ↩
