THEAETETUS: That is implied in what has been said.

STRANGER: And may not conquest be again subdivided?

THEAETETUS: How?

STRANGER: Open force may be called fighting, and secret force may have

the general name of hunting?

THEAETETUS: Yes.

STRANGER: And there is no reason why the art of hunting should not be

further divided.

THEAETETUS: How would you make the division?

STRANGER: Into the hunting of living and of lifeless prey.

THEAETETUS: Yes, if both kinds exist.

STRANGER: Of course they exist; but the hunting after lifeless things

having no special name, except some sorts of diving, and other small

matters, may be omitted; the hunting after living things may be called

animal hunting.
