Socrates continues to try to make Lysis think dialectically, but fails miserably. Lysis accepts that the same is useless and not a friend to the same, although the good person is a friend to the good person (this is a contradicton), Once again, it is Socrates himself who has to discover that they have been seriously misled (they have, by him), and he adduces someone who is said to have claimed that the same thing to the same thing, and the good people to the good people, are actually hostile. Socrates claims that that man used to adduce Hesiod, but the famous quote from him will have to wait until the next episode.

Here I read through Platonic dialogues, translating and commenting on the Greek text as I go.
