for "feared" he says "frozen" and "fear" he
calls "freezing." On the other hand, for "daring" and "courage" he uses
[Greek omitted], "heat." Evil effects, he distinguishes in these ways.

Again when Aristotle considers indignation a mercy among the generous
emotions (for when good men are stirred because their neighors seem to
succeed beyond their worth, it is called indignation. When they, beyond
their desert, have misfortunes, it is called pity.) These two Homer
considers to belong, to the good, for he reckons them as belonging to
Zeus. Other passages he has as well as the following (I. xi. 542):--

But Jove, high-throned, the soul of Ajax filled with fear.

And in other places he pities him being chased about the wall.

What opinion the poet had about virtue and vice he shows in many places.
For since one part of the soul is intelligent and rational, and the
other devoid of reason and open to emotions, and on this account man has
a middle position between God and brute, he thinks the highest, virtue,
is divine, and the other extremity, evil, is brutelike. Just as later on
Aristotle thought, he adopts these principles in his companions. For
he always considers good men to be like gods, and as he says (I. ii.
167):--

By a counsel not, unworthy of Zeus.

Among the evil ones he names cowards (I. xiii. 102):--

Like to timid stags,--

and to sheep without a shepherd and to hares in flight. About those
borne headlong and heedlessly to anger (I. xvii. 20):--

Nor pard, nor lion, nor the forest boar,
Fiercest of beasts, and provident of his strength
In their own esteem
With Panthous' sons for courage nor may vie.

The laments of those grieving to no purpose he compares to the sounds of
birds (O. xvi. 218):--

Where Younglings the country folk have taken from the nest
ere yet they are fledged.

The Stoics who place virtue in apathy follow the passages in which he
takes up every feeling, saying about grief (I. xix. 218):--

Behoves us bury out of sight our dead,
Steeling our heart and weeping but a day.

And (I. xvi. 7):--

Why weep over Patroclus as a girl?

About anger (I. xviii. 107):--

May strife perish from gods and men.

About fear (I. v. 252):--

Do not speak of fear, if thou thinkest to persuade me.

And (O. xv. 494):--

Struck and smitten seeing fate and death, he fell heroicly
from the sword. So those chall
