Ἀλλʼ ὅ γε Ἀριστοτέλης (fr. 29 Rose), καίπερ ποικί- λως κατασκευασθείσης τῆς τοῦ πράγματος ἀνεπινοησίας καὶ οὐκ ἐν ὀλίγῳ κειμένων ταράχῳ τῶν γεωμετρῶν, φησὶ μὴ ἀδιανόητον εἶναι τὸ ὑπὸ τούτων λεγόμενον μῆκος ἀπλα- τές, ἀλλὰ δύνασθαι χωρὶς πάσης περισκελείας εἰς ἔννοιαν ἡμῖν ἐλθεῖν. ἵστησι δὲ τὸν λόγον ἐπί τινος ἐναργεστέρου ὑποδείγματος καὶ σαφοῦς.
