They are offen- sive stories, and must not be repeated in our city.
No 1 we must not tell a youthful listener that he will be doing nothing extraordinary if he commit the foulest crimes ; nor if he chastise the crimes of a father in the most unscrupulous manner ; but will simply be doing what the first and greatest of the gbds have done before him.
" Nor yet is it proper to say in any case — ^what is indeed untrue — that gods wage war against gods, and intrigue and fight among themselves.
We ar...e not to teach this, if the future guards of our state are to deem it a most disgraceful thing to quarrel among themselves. Far less ought we to select as subjects for fiction and embroidery' the battles of the giants, and numerous other feuds of all kinds, in which gods and heroes fight against their own kith and kin. If there be any possibility of persuading them that to quarrel with one's fel- low is a sin of which no member of a state was ever guilty, such rather ought to be the language held to our children firom the first, by men and 1 Hesiod, Theogonyy 154.
