Translation: The father of
Plato.[1] "And he was full of the dogmas of
Plato the son of Ariston. And neither could the
Timaeus elude him, even if it was decked out excessively in grammatical theory and traced back the motions of nature; nor the
Phaedo, nor the
Gorgias; and indeed any other one of those subtle and crafty dialogues, like the
Parmenides."[2]
