In what has preceded I have travelled a good deal beyond Simonides. But I have done so in order to illustrate the fact that the remains of ancient lyric cannot be interpreted in isolation. I come back now to the extant fragments of Simonides.
page 114 note 1 For the form ṬαƲʋπṬρʋƳος (the word is not elsewhere found) compare кʋαƲοπṬρʋƳος in Cercidas (0x. Pap. 1082, p. 33, line 6). Wilamowitz, I now find, has discovered the Scholion.
page 114 note 2 I note a like malice of fortune in connexion with a statement in Sappho u. Simonides, p. 81. Wilamowitz there lays it down that ς for εις is an impossible form in an Aeolic poet. Among some recent Egyptian rubbish I can find for him, if he has not found it already, a certain example of ς (where εις would not scan) in a very good Aeolic poet indeed.
page 114 note 3 If Wilamowitz had written έσσεῖταɩ his line would have been one to which a metrical parallel could have been found in the Curetes Hymn.
page 114 note 4 I observe, in passing, that in Mr. Edmonds' Lyra Graeca it still appears, without comment, among the fragments of Alcaeus.
page 114 note 5 And perhaps the author of the Hymn of Curetes.
page 115 note 1 Alcman I. should, I believe, be written: Ṃоῖσ' ᾰƳε, Ṃоῖσα λỊƳεῖα, πολʋµµελές, αἰεƲαοιδέ µέλος ƲεοϰµòƲ ᾰρϰε παρσεƲοιν είδεƲ.
page 120 note 1 Cf. Alcaeus 50, κπος Ƴᾴρ κεøλαƲ κατίσϰ ει τÒƲ ϬƲ θµα θʋμƲ αἰτΙμεƲος and Pindar, Frag. 104d, Schroeder.
page 122 note 1 Mr. Edmonds (Lyra Graeca) still gives Xenocritus without comment.
