I'm down for this. Is there a pdf or text file of it somewhere for convenience sake?

More so than The Republic? Idk.
Also I feel like there should be some aim for this.
Paul Henry, (S.J.) claims in his introductory essay from the Penguin edition that Plotinus' salvific system is individualist. This seems to me to contradict the call in the Republic (end of 519) to return to the cave and help the prisoners. I think the resolution of this supposed tension- whether it be real or merely apparent- could be a fertile aim for this reading and could serve as a guiding higher purpose to the enterprise.
