The Internet Wiretap Edition of CRITO, by PLATO. Translated by BENJAMIN JOWETT. From DIALOGUES OF PLATO, New York, P.F. Collier & Son. Copyright 1900 The Colonial Press. This was scanned from the 1900 edition and mechanically checked against a commercial copy of Crito from CDROM. Differences were corrected against the paper edition. The text itself is thus a highly accurate rendition. This text is in the PUBLIC DOMAIN, released August 1993.

The days of Socrates are drawing to a close; the fatal ship [1] has been seen off Sunium, as he is informed by his aged friend and contemporary Crito, who visits him before the dawn has broke . . .
