of　them；　and　if　you　are　an　inhabitant　of　the　other　world　that　they　will　not

take　care　of　them？　　Nay；　but　if　they　who　call　themselves　friends　are　good

for　anything；　they　willto　be　sure　they　will。



'Listen；　then；　Socrates；　to　us　who　have　brought　you　up。　　Think　not　of　life

and　children　first；　and　of　justice　afterwards；　but　of　justice　first；　that

you　may　be　justified　before　the　princes　of　the　world　below。　　For　neither

will　you　nor　any　that　belong　to　you　be　happier　or　holier　or　juster　in　this

life；　or　happier　in　another；　if　you　do　as　Crito　bids。　　Now　you　depart　in

innocence；　a　sufferer　and　not　a　doer　of　evil；　a　victim；　not　of　the　laws；

but　of　men。　　But　if　you　go　forth；　returning　evil　for　evil；　and　injury　for

injury；　breaking　the　covenants　and　agreements　which　you　have　made　with　us；

and　wronging　those　whom　you　ought　least　of　all　to　wrong；　that　is　to　say；

yourself；　your　friends；　your　country；　and　us；　we　shall　be　angry　with　you

while　you　live；　and　our　brethren；　the　laws　in　the　world　below；　will　receive

you　as　an　enemy；　for　they　will　know　that　you　have　done　your　best　to　destroy

us。　　Listen；　then；　to　us　and　not　to　Crito。'



This；　dear　Crito；　is　the　voice　which　I　seem　to　hear　murmuring　in　my　ears；

like　the　sound　of　the　flute　in　the　ears　of　the　mystic；　that　voice；　I　say；

is　humming　in　my　ears；　and　prevents　me　from　hearing　any　other。　　And　I　know

that　anything　more　which　you　may　say　will　be　vain。　　Yet　speak；　if　you　have

anything　to　say。



CRITO：　　I　have　nothing　to　say；　Socrates。



SOCRATES：　　Leave　me　then；　Crito；　to　fulfil　the　will　of　God；　and　to　follow

whither　he　leads。
