Thesis 5>48
Latin
Non solum per dicta in Epinomide et Philebo a Platone, in quibus dialogis expresse ponit Plato foelicitatem in contemplatione, sed per dicta in Phedro de furore amatorio, constat secundum Platonem non esse foelicitatem in actu amoris, quia furor non est foelicitas, sed impetus et oestrum concitans, urgens et impellens ad foelicitatem.
1486 print reads 'aestrum', 1487 'estrum', for 'oestrum' (farmer1998:23002); orthographic variant only.
English
That happiness, for Plato, is not to be found in the act of love is clear both from the Epinomis and the Philebus—where he plainly places happiness in contemplation—and from the Phaedrus's account of the frenzy of love: frenzy is not happiness itself, but a goad and a driving impulse that spurs us on toward it.
