Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[3221] Translated as arranged by Grotius.
[3222] Odyss., xvii. 286.
[3223] συμμανῆναι is doubtless here the true reading, for which the text has συμβῆναι.
[3224] The text has κατ᾽ ἄλλα. And although Sylburgius very properly remarks, that the conjecture κατάλληλα instead is uncertain, it is so suitable to the sense here, that we have no hesitation in adopting it.
[3225] The above is translated as amended by Grotius.
[3226] παύροισι, “few,” instead of παῤοἷσι and πράσσοντας instead of πράσσοντα, and δύαις, “calamities,” instead of δύᾳ, are adopted from Lyric Fragments.
[3227] ψυδνός = ψυδρός—which, however, occurs nowhere but here—is adopted as preferable to ψεδνός (bald), which yields no sense, or ψυχρός. Sylburgius ms. Paris; Ruhnk reads ψυδρός.
[3228] A mistake for Herodotus.
[3229] Instead of Μαραθωνίται, as in the text, we read from Thucydides Μαραθῶνί τε.
[3230] Πυτίνη (not, as in the text, Ποιτίνη), a flask covered with plaited osiers. The name of a comedy by Cratinus (Liddell and Scott’s Lexicon). [Elucidation I.]
[3231] Iliad, xii. 322, Sarpedon to Glaucus.
[3232] Grotius’s correction has been adopted, ἐγγύας δὲ ζαμία, instead of ὲγγύα δὲ ζαμίας.
[3233] In the text before In Hexameters we have τηρήσει, which has occasioned much trouble to the critics. Although not entirely satisfactory, yet the most probable is the correction θέλουσι, as above.
[3234] Iliad, xvii. 53.
[3235] i.e., Polyphemus, Odyss., ix. 372.
[3236] According to the correction of Casaubon, who, instead of ἀραρότως of the text, reads Ἀραρώς. Others ascribed the comedy to Aristophanes himself.
Chapter III.—Plagiarism by the Greeks of the Miracles Related in the Sacred Books of the Hebrews.
[3237] i.e., washed.
[3238] Eusebius reads, “invoking the common Father, God,” viz., Πανελλήνιος Ζεύς, as Pausanias relates.
[3241] Instead of νοῦσον σιδηρόν, the sense requires that we should, with Sylburgius, read νούσοισι δηρόν.
