[490] 490-3 recur with slight variations in Od. 1.356-9, Od. 21.350-3; and for the last line and a half cf. also 20.137, Od. 11.352-3. The present context is that which they suit best (see scholia on Od. 1.356), and if there has been any copying it is from here. Imitations will be found in Aisch. Sept. 200, Eur. Heraclid. 711.τὰ ξ᾽ αὐτῆς, not “τὰ σαυτῆς”, in accordance with the canon of Ar. that the compound reflexive pronouns are not found in H. The elision of the “α” of “σά” is, however, not very natural, and no doubt Payne Knight's conj. “τέ᾽ αὐτῆς” is right; see on 1.185.
