Many thanks to David Harding for this reference in ZMM.  That was exactly
what I needed.  Paul Turner also sent me a quote from Plato that
demonstrated this subordination of Good to Truth.  What I think I see from
both references is that Good is the highest Form, but Truth is not a Form as
such, but the result of the dialectic process.  Can anyone confirm the
correctness of that understanding?  Is the Symposium the best dialogue to
read for this subject?  Finally, what is the difference between a Form and
an Idea?  Thanks to all who respond.
