[30] More truly "implied," namely, that Practical Wisdom results

from experience.

[31] This observation seems to be introduced, simply because

suggested by the last, and not because at all relevant to the

matter in hand.

[32] An instance of Principles gained [Greek: aisthesei]. (Book

1. chap. viii.)

[33] Particulars are called [Greek: eschata] because they are

last arrived at in the deliberative process, but a little further

on we have the term applied to first principles, because they

stand at one extremity, and facts at the other, of the line of

action.

[34] I prefer the reading [Greek: e phronesis], which gives this

sense, "Well, as I have said, Practical Wisdom is this kind of

sense, and the other we mentioned is different in kind." In a

passage so utterly unimportant, and thrown in almost

colloquially, it is not worth while to take much trouble about

such a point.
