10201 [ {en to Ionio kolpo}.] 103 [ Stein reads {para Khona potamon}, "by the river Chon," a conjecture derived from Theognostus.] 104 [ It is thought by some Editors that "the prophets" just above, and these words, "and they told them," are interpolated.] 105 [ {emphuton mantiken}, as opposed to the {entekhnos mantike} possessed for example by Melampus, cp. ii. 49.] 106 [ Or possibly "Calamoi."] 107 [ i.e. 60,000.] 10701 [ {ton Potneion}, i.e. either the Eumenides or Demeter and Persephone.] 108 [ {apistous toisi Ellesi}. Perhaps the last two words are to be rejected, and {apistous} to be taken in its usual sense, "distrusted"; cp. viii. 22.] 109 [ {neokhmon an ti poieein}.] 110 [ {pheme eseptato}.] 111 [ {eteralkea}, cp. viii. 11.] 112 [ {ton Perseon}: perhaps we should read {ek ton Perseon}, "appointed by the Persians to guard the passes."] 113 [ {ti neokhmon poieoien}.] 114 [ {ten kephalen smatai}: the meaning is uncertain.] 115 [ {Pou de kou me apolesas}: some Editors read {ko} for {kou} (by conjecture), and print the clause as a statement instead of a question, "not yet hast thou caused by ruin."] 116 [ {en to aduto}.] 117 [ {aphuktos}: many Editors adopt the reading {aphulakto} from inferior MSS., "they fell upon him when he was, as one may say, off his guard."] 118 [ {estergon ta pareonta}.] 119 [ {ekpheugonta}: many Editors have {ekphugonta}, "after he had escaped."] 120 [ {tarikhos eon}. The word {tarikhos} suggests the idea of human bodies embalmed, as well as of dried or salted meat.] 121 [ {oi}: some Editors approve the conjecture {moi}, "impose upon myself this penalty."] 122 [ {sanidas}: some read by conjecture {sanidi}, or {pros sanida}: cp. vii. 33.] 123 [ Or, "when he had heard this, although he did not admire the proposal, yet bade them do so if they would."] End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The History Of Herodotus, by Herodotus *** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE HISTORY OF HERODOTUS *** ***** This file should be named 2456.txt or 2456.zip ***** This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/2/4/5/2456/ Produced by John Bickers, Dagny, and David Widger Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will be renamed.
