Let it be ascertained then in how many senses the term "Unjust

man" is used. Well, he who violates the law, and he who is a

grasping man, and the unequal man, are all thought to be Unjust

and so manifestly the Just man will be, the man who acts

according to law, and the equal man "The Just" then will be the

lawful and the equal, and "the Unjust" the unlawful and the

unequal.

Well, since the Unjust man is also a grasping man, he will be so,

of course, with respect to good things, but not of every kind,

only those which are the subject-matter of good and bad fortune

and which are in themselves always good but not always to the

individual.[4] Yet men pray for and pursue these things: this

they should not do but pray that things which are in the abstract

good may be so also to them, and choose what is good for

themselves.
