nd, p. 59.--Thucydides: see Classen in the introduction to his (3rd) edition, pp. lvii-lix, where all the material is collected. A conclusive passage is vii. 36, 6, where Thuc. makes the bigoted Nicias before a decisive battle express the hope that "Fortune" will favour the Athenians.--Demosthenes's dream: _Aeschin._ iii. 77.--Demosthenes on Tyche: _Olynth._ ii. 22; _de cor._ 252. P. 93. Demosthenes and the Pythia: _Aesch._ iii. 130. Comp. _ibid._ 68, 131, 152; Plutarch, _Dem._ 20.--Demetrius of Phalerum: Polyb. xxix. 21.--Temples of Tyche: Roscher, _Mythol. Lex._, art. _Fortuna_. P. 94. Tyche mistress of the gods: _Trag. adesp. fragm._ 506, Nauck; [Dio Chrys.] lxiv. p. 331 R.--Polybius: i. 1; iii. 5, 7.--The reservations against Tyche as a principle for the explaining of historical facts, and the twisting of the notion in the direction of Providence found in certain passages in Polybius, do not concern us here; they are probably due to the Stoic influence he underwent during his stay at Rome. Comp. below, on p. 114, and see Cuntz, _Polybios_ (Leipzig, 1902), p. 43.--Pliny: ii. 22 foll. P. 95. Tyche in the novels: Rohde, _Griech. Rom._ p. 280. P. 97. Strabo: xvii. p. 813.--Plutarch: _de def. or._ 5 and 7. P. 98. The Aetolians at Dium: Polyb. iv. 62; at Dodona, iv. 67; Philip at Thermon, v. 9; Dicaearchus, xviii. 54.--Decay of Roman worship: Wissowa, _Religion u. Kultus d. Roemer_, p. 70 (2nd ed.). To this work I must refer for indications of the sources; but the polemic in the text is chiefly directed against Wissowa. P. 99. Ennius: comp. below, p. 112. P. 100. Varro: in Augustine, _de civ. Dei_, vi. 2. P. 103. Theology of the Stoics: Zeller, iii. 1, p. 309-45. P. 104. Demonology of the Stoics: Heinze, _Xenokrates_, p. 96. P. 105. Epicurus's theology: Zeller, iii. 1, pp. 427-38. Comp. Schwartz, _Charakterkoepfe_, ii. p. 43. P. 106. Epicurus's doctrine of the eternity of the gods criticised: Cic. _de nat. deor._ i. 68 foll. P. 107. The Sceptics: Zeller, iii. 1, pp. 507 and 521. P. 109. Diogenes: see note on p. 74.--Bion: Diog. Laert. iv. 52 and 54. P. 110. Menippos: R. Helm, _Lukian u. Menipp_ (Leipzig and Berlin, 1906). P. 111. Euhemerus: Jacoby in Pauly-Wissowa's _Realencyclop._, art. "Euemeros"; Wendland, _Hellenist. Kultur_, p. 70.--Euhemerism before Euhemerus: Lobeck, _Aglaophamus_, p. 9; Wendland, p. 67. P. 112. A Danish scholar, Dr. J. P. Jacobsen (_Afhandlinger og Artikler_, p. 49
