Adopting this signification gives greater unity to the whole

passage, which will then stand thus. The question being whether

we are to assume principles, or obtain them by an analysis of

facts, Aristotle says, "We must begin of course with what is

known but then this term denotes either particulars or universals

perhaps we then must begin with particulars and hence the

necessity of a previous good training in habits, etc. (which of

course is beginning with particular facts), for a fact is a

starting point, and if this be sufficiently clear, there will be

no want of the reason for the fact in addition"

The objection to this method of translation is, that [Greek:

archai] occurs immediately afterwards in the sense of

"principles."
