Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis.

should force a battle round the city itself, then it<br />
would be a sore disgrace to the State if its women<br />
were so ill brought up as not even to be willing to<br />
do as do the mother-birds, which fight the strongest<br />
beasts in defence of their broods, but, instead of<br />
facing all risks, even death itself, to run straight to<br />
the temples and crowd all the shrines and holy<br />
places, and drown mankind in the disgrace of being<br />
the most craven of living creatures.<br />
CLIN. By Heaven, Stranger, if ever this took<br />
place in a city, it would be a most unseemly thing,<br />
apart from the mischief of it.<br />
ATH. Shall we, then, lay down this law,—that up<br />
to the point stated women must not neglect military<br />
training, but all citizens, men and women alike,<br />
must pay attention to it ?<br />
CLIN. I, for one, agree.<br />

shall decide about ^ when word accompanied <strong>by</strong><br />
deed can clearly demonstrate this fact, among the<br />
others mentioned,—that Avrestling of this kind is<br />
of all motions <strong>by</strong> far the most nearly allied to<br />
military fighting ; and also that it is not the latter<br />
that should be learned for the sake of the former,<br />
but, on the contrary, it is the former that should<br />
be practised for the sake of the latter.^<br />
CLIN. There, at any rate, you are right.<br />
ATH. For the present let this suffice as an<br />
