Ill. A to At the beginning of Book III we pass from the con- sideration of God himself, or the gods themselves, to that of the divine nature as it appear...s fused with human nature; for most of the myths criticized and appealed to are not about the gods, but about semi-divine beings (baifxoves) and heroes, and the rest are myths in which (as in the story of Zeus and Sarpedon) gods are affected by human emotions with regard to men ; we are thus moving in the borderland between gods and men. Inci- dentally this gives Plato the opportunity both to expound positively what he conceives to be the highest moral nature, and also to criticize negatively the current con- ceptions about it, suggesting what poets ought to say by examples of what they ought not to say.
