489-^1— ^oomci^, \iyeip, Kol wparrfttf, &e.
CHAP.LXXX.] EPAMINONDAS. 491 into the front rank the most instructed and capable men of the country, whether ambitious by tempe- rament or not. As the pressure of the time im- pelled Epaminondas forward, so it also disposed his countrymen to look out for a competent leader wherever he was to be found; and in no other living man could they obtain the same union of the soldier, the general, the orator, and the patriot.
Looking through all Grecian histor...y, it is only in Perikles that we find the like many-sided excel- lence ; for though much inferior to Epaminondas as a general, Perikles must be held superior to him as a statesman. But it is alike true of both — ^and the remark tends much to illustrate the sources of Grecian excellence — that neither sprang exclusively from the school of practice and experience. They both brought to that school minds exercised in the conversation of the most instructed philosophers and sophists accessible to them — trained to varied intellectual combinations and to a larger range of subjects than those that came before the public assembly — ^familiarized with reasonings which the scrupulous piety of Nikias forswore, and which the devoted miUtary patriotism of Pelopidas dis- dained.
