1 the common reading is πρώην καθ᾽ ἓν, which can scarcely admit of any interpretation. See Petit, Wigan and Ermerins.
2 This word is supplied by Ermerins on his own conjecture. Certainly some such term seems to be wanting in this place.
3 Ermerins reads καύσου ἰδέην, which, no doubt, makes very good sense; but the common reading appears quite satisfactory. It is but justice to Ermerins to add, that he improves the next clause of the sentence very much by a change in the punctuation.
