Dunque l'idea, accostandosi ordina, combinando insieme, le parti diverse di un essere, le riduce a un tutto armonioso e forma l'unità mediante il loro accordo, poichè essa è una e perchè l'essere da lei informato deve essere uno, come può esserlo un essere composto di parti. La bellezza dunque risiede in questo essere, una volta ricondotto all'unità, e si dà a tutte le sue parti e all'insieme.
But where the Ideal-Form has entered, it has grouped and coordinated what from a diversity of parts was to become a unity: it has rallied confusion into co-operation: it has made the sum one harmonious coherence: for the Idea is a unity and what it moulds must come to unity as far as multiplicity may. And on what has thus been compacted to unity, Beauty enthrones itself, giving itself to the parts as to the sum.
