e)c o(/tou: cp. 12 n. leukh\n … e)k melai/nhs. The words could mean either: (1) ‘since this hair which clothes my head, once dark, has been white’: or (2) ‘since this hair,—once dark, now white,—has clothed my head,’ i.e., from infancy. The first is the sense intended here. There is a certain looseness of expression, since the thought is, ‘though I am old, I can recall no such case’; whereas the period actually described might be a comparatively short one. So we can say, ‘he has grown grey in the service of his country,’ meaning, ‘he has served it all his life.’ a)mfiba/llomai: cp. Rhianus (the elegiac poet of Crete, c. 225 B.C.) Anthol.

ipides married Antigone: and he reads ti/ktei to\n *ai(/mona. We have then to suppose that Antigone marked her affection for her lost lover by giving his name to her son by the au)tourgo/s.

t at least be regarded as very doubtful. If the perfect a)nh/|rhtai in line 2 is sound, it is an indication of much later age, as has been shown in the critical note above. Another such indication, I think, is the phrase ei)s mnhmei=on kata/geion e)nteqei=sa para\ (instead of u(po\) tou= *kre/ontos (l. 2),—a later (and modern) use of the prep. which does not surprise us in Salustius (Arg.

qei/s before learning that Gerh. H. Müller had already suggested the same. He had not, however, forestalled my arguments for it. If the admission of it into the text is deemed too bold, it may be submitted that the barbarous character of the traditional reading, and the absence of any emendation which can claim a distinctly higher probability, render the passage one of those in which it is excusable to adopt a provisional remedy. With regard to ou)k a)/ths a)/ter in v. 4, I would venture to invite the attention of scholars to the note in the Appendix. My first object has been to bring out what seems the essential point,—viz., that the real difficulty is the palaeographical one,—and to help in defining the conditions which a solution must satisfy before it can claim more than the value of guess-work. By the kind aid of Mr. E. M. Thompson, I have been enabled to give a transcript of the words ou)k a)/ths a)/ter as they would have been written in an Egyptian papyrus of circ. 250-200 B.C.

The true reading, te/ggei, is in A and other of the MSS. later than L. (2) Verse 1167, zh=n tou=ton, a)ll' e)/myuxon h(gou=mai nekro/n, is in none of the MSS. It is supplied by Athenaeus 7. 280 C, who quotes vv. 1165-1171. The earliest printed edition which contains it is that of Turnebus (Paris, 1553 A.D.). Now Eustathius (p. 957. 17) quotes v. 1165 (partly) and v. 1166,—remarking that, after v. 1166, ‘the careful copies’ (ta\ a)kribh= a)nti/grafa) give the verse zh=n tou=ton, a)ll' e)/myuxon h(gou=mai nekro/n. Eustathius wrote in the second half of the 12th century: L was written in the first half of the eleventh century. It would be a very forced explanation to suppose that Eustathius, in speaking of ta\ a)kribh= a)nti/grafa, meant those MSS. of Sophocles on which Athenaeus, some 1000 yea<
