CHAPTER XXII.

[Greek: epochê] _or the Suspension of Judgment._

When I say that I suspend my judgment, I mean that I cannot 196

say which of those things presented should be believed, and

which should not be believed, showing that things appear equal

to me in respect to trustworthiness and untrustworthiness. Now

we do not affirm that they are equal, but we state what appears

to us in regard to them at the time when they present themselves

to us. [Greek: epochê] means the holding back of the opinion, so

as neither to affirm nor deny anything because of the equality

of the things in question.
