After having taken a survey of their's and their neighbours' territory, we will determine the limits of them in fact as well as in theory.

And now, let us proceed to legislate with a view to perfecting the form and outline of our state.

The number of our citizens shall be 5040--this will be a convenient number; and these shall be owners of the land and protectors of the allotment.

The houses and the land will be divided in the same way, so that every man may correspond to a lot.

Let the whole number be first divided into two parts, and then into three; and the number is further capable of being divided into four or five parts, or any number of parts up to ten.
