διαιρεῖται τὰ ἐξ ὧν πόλις οἰκεῖται εἰς τρία. ἔστι γὰρ αὐτῶν ἓν μὲν ἐκ τοῦ μαχίμου μέρους τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἓν δὲ ἐκ τοῦ βουλεύεσθαι δυναμένου, ἓν δὲ ἐκ τοῦ ἐργάζεσθαι. τὸ μὲν οὖν μάχιμον μέρος τὸ ἄλκιμόν ἐστι, τὸ δὲ βουλεύεσθαι δυνάμενον τὸ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων, τὸ δὲ ἐργάζεσθαι τὸ τῶν τεχνιτῶν καὶ γεωργῶν καὶ τῶν ἄλλων τῶν τοιούτων. τούτων δὲ ὅτι ἂν ἀπῇ, οὐ ῥᾳδίως ἡ πόλις οἰκεῖται.
