PEEFACE 
 
 Modem readers of Aristophanes are hampered by their igno- 
 rance of matters essentially commonplace. Even Robert Brown- 
 ing, however instant Ms recognition of his great confrere's genius, 
 shared the common experience and resorted to the same source 
 of relief with lesser men. Sooner or later, whether poets or 
 laymen, we all turn to the Old Greek Commentary on our poet 
 in hope of a better understanding of the many remote matters 
 that prevent our complete appreciation of his lively comedies. 
 Who are these obscure men that troop through his coursing 
 verse, the butt of his good-natured ridicule ? What is the par- 
 ticular significance of this or that swift reference to a local 
 scandal, a political row, a shady transaction ? Or, in larger 
 aspect, to a historical event, an Attic custom, an ancient myth, 
 — to theatrical usage, judicial procedure, ritual observance ? 
 Even the common man, ensconced aloft in his seat in the ancient 
 theatre, understood these things. To him they were the well- 
 known facts of his daily life, but we moderns and aliens require 
 instruction. We lack, too, his feeling for idiom and for the 
 nuances of the speech heard in the street in the poet's time, 
 although we may know more about formal Greek grammar than 
 any man of his day. 
 
 The substance of comedy is essentially local: its characters 
 and incidents, in order to provoke laughter, must be familiar; 
 its spectacle of life must reflect the life of the audience. The 
 comedies of Aristophanes are local in unusual degree; he is 
 never very far from the Athens of Alcibiades, however he may 
 affect to transport us to Hades or Nephelococcygia. It is for 
 this reason, doubtless, that he has not many modern readers and 
 that his plays have not much influenced modem literature. 
 Racine appropriated the framework of the only play of our poet 
 
Ti ARISTOPHANES 
 
 that may still be said to hold the boards, but shifted its charac- 
 ters and the setting of its incidents to his own time — his play is 
 French. Since, then, the outlook upon life in these unrivalled 
 Greek comedies is so completely that of contemporary Athens, it 
 is not surprising that even within a few generations after the 
 poet's death, when moreover Alexander's conquests had lowered 
 the prestige of ancient states, established new centres of interest, 
 and shattered venerable traditions, men began to find these plays 
 difficult and to seek enlightenment. 
 
 In the Introduction to this book I have endeavored to narrate 
 how this virtual demand for a commentary was met by the great 
 Alexandrian scholars and their successors. It is now difiicult 
 to realize the abundant resources these learned men had in prose- 
 cuting their study of comedy. The present record of their labors 
 is indeed meagre, but even the extant scholia testify that their 
 material for the intensive and comparative study of this impor- 
 tant branch of the ancient literature was ample. Twenty-seven 
 poets of the Old Comedy are cited or quoted in the existing 
 commentary, and many of their plays are named: six each of 
 Hermippus and Phrynichus, seven of Pherecrates, eight of Theo- 
 pompus, fourteen of Eupolis, sixteen of the elder Cratinus, seven- 
 teen of Plato, thirty-six of Aristophanes. These comedies long 
 survived their authors. Athenaeus, writing at the close of the 
 second century of our era, cites or quotes thirty-eight poets of the 
 Old Comedy and names two hundred and twenty-five of their 
 plays. To-day we have only eleven plays of a single poet. 
 
 Comedy was profitably studied in Alexandria for a period of 
 five hundred years, from just after the foundation of the city to 
 the end of the second century after Christ. Approximately two 
 centuries later the results of previous investigations were incor- 
 porated, so far as this was possible, in a parchment variorum 
 edition of Aristophanes that probably was composed in Constan- 
 tinople. The commentary in this great book, hard buffeted from 
 age to age, now exists only in the abbreviated, mutilated, and 
 contaminated remains that are still recoverable from various ex- 
 tant manuscripts. These scanty remains but poorly represent the 
 
PREFACE vii 
 
 wealth of diversified information once accessible in the hbraries 
 of Alexandria. Nevertheless classical scholars in general have 
 thought well of the commentary, even in its piteous present state : 
 they have turned to it with confidence for instruction, and have 
 used it freely in their studies of the life and literature of ancient 
 Greece. A general impression of its nature and value may be 
 had from the three admirable Indexes to the present volume, 
 although they cover but a single play. I speak confidently of 
 their quality, for I owe them all to the kindness of Professor 
 Edward Capps, who, deferring weightier matters of his own, has 
 by this self-sacrificing and kindly service placed me under heavy 
 but agreeable obligations. 
 
 The definitive edition of the scholia on Aristophanes is still 
 to be published.! The present book covers only one play, but 
 aims to give a full report of the manuscript sources of its 
 scholia. I had no thought of writing it when I began many 
 years ago a special study of these scholia, in which much mate- 
 rial of various kinds has been gradually collected ; but in 1903 
 I was advised that scholars would welcome the publication of 
 some such part of my material as is here given. That was an 
 agreeable suggestion, and the Birds seemed a proper play for 
 the purpose : its Greek commentary is among the best on these 
 plays, and the manuscripts that furnish the text of this, while 
 adequately supplementing and correcting one another, are not 
 overwhelming in number. The work proceeded leisurely, with 
 interruptions, and three years later the body of the book (pages 
 1-303) was finished and electrotyped and the plates stored in 
 the vaults of the Athenaeum Press. There they have lain until 
 the present year. The reasons for this are personal and need not 
 be inflicted on the reader, but I welcome this opportunity to 
 express my grateful appreciation of the considerate patience with 
 which my publishers tolerated conduct apparently so erratic and 
 unreasonable. My relations with the late Edwin Ginn, an able,

 of the excellent plan on which they propose to make it has been published.

 high-minded, and kindly man, contmued without interruption for 
 forty years, and my connexion with him and his partners in the 
 house of Ginn and Company is one of the pleasant recollections 
 of a busy life. I am grateful also to the staff of the Athenaeum 
 Press for exhuming plates and proofs without a murmur, and 
 cheerfully resuming work on a book that no doubt they thought 
 had long ago been consigned to the limbo of forgotten things. 
 (Absit omen !) My special thanks are due to Mr. Steven Bying- 
 ton, a member of the staff, who has read all the proofs with 
 scholarly precision and insight. 
 
 Emendation is the most fascinating and demoralizing diver- 
 sion that the classical scholar has been vouchsafed by his pecuhar 
 gods. Impudently applied to Aristophanes it is an unholy 
 occupation, but not so to his Greek commentators as they stand 
 reported in extant manuscripts. Conditions develop in which the 
 scalpel is the only mstrument of salvation. In making the Tran- 
 script and Collation I remarked from time to time (shall it be 
 confessed, with satisfaction ?) the necessity of resorting to con- 
 jectural emendation in establishing the text. Thereupon I asked 
 certain friends to lend a hand, and presently sent them gaUey- 
 proofs of the Transcript, the Collation, the Text as I had restored 
 it, and my Critical Notes. At this moment I fail to understand 
 how I had the temerity to ask Professor Henry Jackson, with 
 many weighty demands upon his time, to aid me, or Professor 
 Wright, then the busy Dean of the Harvard Graduate School. 
 I called on the younger men, Professor Capps, my colleague 
 Professor Gulick, and Dr. Cary, without compunction. That is 
 to me a pleasant time to remember, with letters and proof-sheets 
 going and coming and many a point hotly contested and many a 
 jest at the expense of blundering scribes, and I fully realize how 
 deeply I am indebted to these scholars. Let the last words that 
 I write at the end of a long task be the sincere expression of my 
 gratitude for their helpful and friendly assistance.

INTRODUCTION 
 
 When Alexander the Great had won the long siege of Tyre 
 and subdued Gaza, he marched unopposed into Egypt. Here he 
 Foundation of founded the city that was to perpetuate his name and 
 Aiexandna fame, a weightier deed than any of his conquests. The 
 story is told that he himself chose its site, over against the island 
 of Pharos, and paced out the circuit of its walls and fixed the 
 boundaries of its marketplace and the situation of many of its 
 sanctuaries. Other Greek cities had been slow of growth, but 
 Alexandria sprang up in a day, like the fabled towns founded by 
 Sardanapalus ^ or the four populous cities that now sentinel the 
 Pacific coast of America. Alexander intended that his city 
 should become the centre of trade of the ancient world, under 
 control of Greeks, a vast emporium^ linking the West and the 
 East. His purpose was realized, but Alexandria became also 
 what he can scarcely have anticipated, the literary centre of a 
 new Hellenism. This was due to the fostering care of Ptolemy 
 and his successors on the throne of Egypt. The first Ptolemy 
 ptoiemysoter ^^^ ^^ty named: he was a warrior, one of the gen- 
 32M83 B.C. erals Alexander trusted most in his last campaigns ; 
 but this Macedonian chief, like his master, was also an ardent 
 admirer of the Greek genius, and in the last years of his long life, 
 after the storm and stress of establishing himself in control of 
 Egypt, a genial patron of men of letters and science and himself 
 an author of repute. He wrote a history of the campaigns of 
 Alexander characterized by sobriety and accuracy. This strain 
 of genuine interest in letters was long manifest in his succes- 
 sors. Even Big Belly, the seventh Ptolemy (145-116 B.C.), a

 cruel and grossly immoral man, studied under Aristarchus, dabbled 
 with the text of Homer, furthered the study of geography and 
 ethnography, and wrote his Memoirs in twenty-four books. ^ 
 
 The first Ptolemy gathered about him in Alexandria many 
 learned men. Hither came Hecataeus, who wrote a romancing 
 history of Egypt; the philosophers Theodorus and 
 the Resort of Hegcsias of Gyrene ; the Carian Diodorus, a philoso- 
 Learned Men ^^^^^ ^^^ clcver dialectician, whose five daughters, as 
 Clement reports, were also able disputants ; Strato, the pupil and 
 successor of Theophrastus, who came to Alexandria as one of 
 the tutors of Ptolemy's son and was there associated in this duty 
 with Philetas, poet, philologer, and teacher; Euclid, the cele- 
 brated mathematician, and Herophilus, famous as an anatomist, 
 physiologist, and physician.^ Ptolemy's real interest in letters is 
 shown, furthermore, by his urgent but unavailing invitation to 
 Theophrastus, Stilpo, and Menander to become his guests in 
 Alexandria.^ Philemon, perhaps, accepted his hospitality, bring- 
 ing his clever comedies to the great theatre which the king had 
 built. Hither also came Demetrius of Phalerum, orator, states- 
 man, and philosopher, who resided for many years in Alexandria 
 as the king's intimate friend and counsellor.* Ptolemy doubt- 
 less owed to Demetrius, fresh from Athens, the suggestion of 
 the two foundations that made his city famous, the Museum and 
 the Library.^

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTAEY xi 
 
 Under his successor Philadelphus, Alexandria became a huge 
 cosmopolitan metropolis of the modern type. Commerce flour- 
 ished and brought men to its ports from every known 
 ■philadelphus, quarter of the globe. The king had a large navy 
 and kept a great standing army, but he was not a 
 Macedonian warrior of the old style nor was his reign dis- 
 turbed by continual wars as was the beginning of his father's. 
 Theocritus sings of the glories of king and kingdom in his seven- 
 teenth idyll. Philadelphus was both able and disposed to culti- 
 vate the arts of peace. He directed the internal administration 
 of his dominion, maintained a brilliant court, adorned and beauti- 
 fied Alexandria, gathered scholars together there from all Greece, 
 and by the final and permanent establishment of the Royal Mu- 
 seum and Library made amplest provision for the successful 
 prosecution of their studies. He was just the son to regard the 
 completion of plans formed by his father as a duty, even if his 
 own inclination had not prompted this. The elder Ptolemy, two 
 years before his death, made Philadelphus co-regent, but no 
 unfilial act disturbed his last years and his son paid his memory 
 extraordinary honors. This humane relation between members 
 of a bloody house is as pleasing as it was singular, and casts a 
 welcome ray of light on the character of each man. 
 
 Strabo, writing in the last half of the first century before 
 
 Christ, gives interesting information about the Museum. It was 
 
 situated, he says, in the royal quarter of the city, and 
 
 The Museum \ r t • i 
 
 consisted of a dining-hall with a common table for the 
 Scholars, a hall or arcade furnished with recesses and seats, and 
 a covered walk. It was supported by royal bounty, and its 
 head, who was appointed at first by the Ptolemies and later by the 
 
 of intimate friendsliip witti Demetrius, who was familiar with tlie schools of 
 philosophy in Athens and was himself a distinguished Peripatetic philosopher 
 and all-round man of letters, point the other way. See the strong statement of 
 von Wilamowitz in his Antigonos von Karystos, Philologische Untersuchungen 
 IV (1881) 291, and Mahaffy in his Egypt under the Ptolemaic Dynasty (1899) 60 f . 
 Beck in his Specimen Sistoriae Bibliothecarwm Alexandrinarum'' (1829) § IV has 
 collected the opinions expressed by the Church Fathers on the founder of the 
 Libraries. 
 
xii ARISTOPHANES 
 
 Roman Emperors, was called the Priest of the Museum.^ The 
 royal quarter comprised quite one fourth of the city and lay along 
 the Great Harbor. Here were the connected palaces built by 
 successive kings, the tomb of Alexander, temples, public build- 
 ings, and gardens. Strabo leaves some questions unanswered. 
 He does not state whether private quarters were provided in 
 the Museum, as in a monastery or English college, for such 
 Scholars as wished them, nor does he say whether, like a modern 
 university, it contained lecture-halls in addition to the exedra. 
 There can be no doubt, however, that lectures on philology, 
 mathematics, medicine, and other branches of knowledge were 
 given in Alexandria in the third century before Christ,^ and there 
 was no more fitting place than the Museum for the lectures of 
 at least the older and more celebrated Scholars. Strabo further- 
 more does not state whether there were collections here for the 
 use of students of the natural sciences, but this again is highly 
 probable. It seems likely that there were zoological gardens in 
 the royal quarter. The second Ptolemy was interested in wild 
 animals and had them captured and brought to Alexandria.^

 XXV 3 (Polemo). The King granted special annual stipends to some at least of 
 the Scholars. This stipend was called o-iivrofis. Athenaeus (xi 493 c ff.) relates 
 that Ptolemy Philadelphus once affected to deprive Sosibius, who was over-fond 
 of subtleties, of his stipend, and justified this by an elaborate verbal juggle. 
 Many similar tales show that relations between the Court and the members of 
 the Museum were easy.

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTARY xiii 
 
 The Library, the most important of all possible collections, 
 
 was probably situated close to the Museum, if indeed it was not 
 
 part of it. It contained the astonishmg number of 
 
 The Library ° 
 
 490,000 volumes ('volumina,' papyrus-rolls) in the 
 time of Callimachus. The cataloguing of this great collection 
 began soon after the accession of Philadelphus under the first 
 librarian, Zenodotus, but extended only to the poets. It was 
 completed under the direction of Callimachus,^ who comprised 
 the result in one hundred and twenty volumes.^ The object of 
 this laborious task was facilitation of the work of the Scholars 
 of the Museum. A smaller library, which Philadelphus estab- 
 lished in the Serapeum in the southwestern quarter of Alexan- 
 dria, contained 42,800 volumes.^ The history of the Museum 
 and Library can be traced well into the Roman age. The influ- 
 ence of these great institutions was so continuous and pervasive 
 that Athenaeus at the end' of the second century after Christ 
 could represent a learned Roman jurisconsult as asking : irepl Se 
 
 rapaSo^SraTov Biap-a. Athenaeus (xiv 654 Ec), quoting the Memoirs of Ptolemy 
 Physcon, is explicit on this point : irepJ tSiv iv ' A'Xe^avSpelf ^ariXeluv \4yuii koI irepl 
 tQv ip airots ^i^tap Tp€<j)op.ivuiv (prjirlv etc. Many wild animals and birds are named 
 in the description of the coronation of Philadelphus which Athenaeus (v 196 fl.) 
 quotes from the History of Alexandria by Callixenus. 
 
 1 For these facts about the Library, see Tzetzes in Kaibel's Comicorum 
 Graecorum Fragmenta (1899) 19 § 20 and 31 § 29, and the Plautine scholium in 
 Ritschl's Opuscula Philologica I (1866) 6 f . In stating the number of volumes in 
 the great Library, Tzetzes says : pipXiup /lir avuiuyuv ipiBpibi TeatrapiKovra fivpidSes, 
 dirXCiv Si ml diuyHv pipXav pMpidSes ivvia. The scholiast has : voluminum quidem 
 commixtorum volumina quadringenta milia, simplicium autem et digestorum 
 milia nonaginta. Ritschl interprets these statements to mean 400,000 volumes 
 in all, of which 310,000 were duplicates. The interpretation now generally 
 held distinguishes the iiTrXai koX i/uyeTs |3/|8Xoi as rolls containing a single work, 
 or a single ' book ' of a work divided after the Alexandrian fashion (the Iliad 
 e.g. into twenty-four books), from the ffvu/uyeU j3/j3Xoi containing two or more 
 single works, or two or more ' books ' of a single work thus divided, or parts of 
 a work not yet so divided. The number of the latter was gradually reduced by 
 the Library staff by rearrangement and redivision. See Dziatzko in Pauly^

 It was in this cosmopolitan city that learned men, who were 
 hospitably received by its rulers and provided with unrivalled

 of like interests,^ began and continued for centuries that study

 this book, to confine attention to this single play for the moment, 
 certain scholars, who lived in the last three centuries before 
 Christ and are known to have made comedy one of the subjects 
 of their study, are quoted as sources of comments : CalUmachus, 
 Euphronius, Eratosthenes, Aristophanes of Byzantium, Callistra- 
 tus, Aristarchus, Ammonius, Demetrius Ixion, and Didymus.^ 
 All these scholars studied in Alexandria, some of them passed 
 their lives there, three of them and perhaps a fourth held the 
 honorable and responsible post of Librarian. They wrote on one 
 or another aspect of comedy, or composed continuous commen- 
 taries on the plays of comic poets, especially on the comedies of 
 Aristophanes, or prepared critical editions of his text. Only 
 one of them had intimate relations with Pergamum, Demetrius

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTAEY xv 
 
 Ixion, who studied under Aristarchus but apostatized and became 
 a vehement critic of his former master.^ Even Crates, who was 
 the head of the Pergamene School in the second century before 
 Christ and is known to have written a commentary on Aristopha- 
 nes, is not quoted in the schoha on the Aves at all and only 
 five times in the rest of the commentary. Five of those who 
 have been named, Callimachus, Eratosthenes, Aristophanes, 
 Gallistratus, and Aristarchus, were scholars of the very highest 
 order and of great productivity, and must be regarded as directly, 
 or indirectly through their pupils, the main source of the exist- 
 ing commentary on Aristophanes. This commentary came into 
 existence in some such fashion as follows. 
 
 Aristophanes the poet could assume that his audience would 
 instantly seize his allusions, however swift and subtle, to their 
 Need of a fellow citizens, to the politics of the day, to contem- 
 commentary porary events and usages, — in short that they were 
 intimately familiar with all the shifting aspects of the tumultuous 
 life that surged about them. Athens was a compact town in 
 which every man knew his neighbor's business ; Aristophanic 
 comedy is intensely local. But a hundred years after the poet's 
 death, about the time when Ptolemy's company of scholars set 
 to work in Alexandria, many of these allusions had become dark 
 sayings ; they puzzled those who essayed to read him. "When 
 the poet said of a certain bottle-man that he had achieved mili- 
 tary distinction and had turned into a tawny horse-cock, then- 
 perplexity was Dionysian :

 and modern authorities on the disputed question of his date. 
 
xvi AEISTOPHAJSTES 
 
 The exegesis of the poets of the Old Comedy began in a 
 simple and natural way. Zenodotus of Ephesus, who had studied 
 under Philetas in Cos, was made librarian in Alex- 
 andria at the beginning of the reign of Ptolemy 
 Philadelphus and was the first to hold this post. The catalogu- 
 ing of the books demanded immediate attention. He himself 
 undertook the classification and arrangement of the epic and 
 other non-dramatic poets, assigning the tragedians to Alexander 
 Aetolus and the comic poets to Lycophron.^ All three were 
 poets in their own right, and both Alexander and Lycophron were 
 stars in the Tragic Pleiad. Lycophron had no inconsiderable 
 task. An indication of the resources of the Library

 cited or quoted in the scholia on the Aves alone. He studied 
 each roll that contained a comedy and gathered facts about the 
 author's life and minute details as to the play, and jotted 
 down anything else he thought worthy of record. When his 
 labor of cataloguing was concluded he had a great collection of 
 notes, and these he put together in a treatise on Comedy in at 
 least nine volumes.^ Other books on the same sub- 
 ject followed. Callimachus treated it in his general 
 classification and description of the contents of the Library in 
 one hundred and twenty volumes.^ Eratosthenes wrote a work 
 of great erudition on the Old Comedy'* in at least 
 twelve volumes.^ Treatises such as these of Lyco- 
 phron, Callimachus, and Eratosthenes were veritable treasure- 
 houses for younger scholars who were pursuing their studies of

 comedy in Alexandria and needed guidance in working among 
 the vast collections of the Library. 
 
 Systematic commenting on comedy began early in Alexandria. 
 
 The first scholar who gave special attention to the interpretation 
 
 of Aristophanes in a continuous commentary was Euphronius,^ a 
 
 youthful contemporary of Callimachus and one of the 
 
 Euphronius 
 
 teachers of Aristophanes of Byzantium; so good a poet, 
 too, that it is alleged he belonged to the Pleiad. His book is fre- 
 quently quoted in the scholia, especially in the notes on the Aves. 
 In these notes he elucidates the meaning of words (Schol. A v. 
 765, 798, 933, 1378, 1563, 1745) or of a phrase (266) or of a 
 sentence (358), or comments on the form of a word (299) or the 
 significance of an epithet (872), or states facts of prosopography 
 (997, 1379 bis, 1536) or of literary history (1403).^ Inclination 
 to linguistic interpretation is what was to be expected from a 
 scholar writing at this time. His views are frequently chal- 
 lenged in the notes anonymously. No evidence exists that either 
 Callimachus or Eratosthenes, respectively the older and younger 
 contemporaries of Euphronius, wrote a commentary on Aris- 
 tophanes. The poems of Callimachus are quoted in the scholia 
 on the Aves to illustrate Aristophanic usage (Schol. Av. 129, 
 261, 364, 598, 832, 872); his treatise on Birds is also cited 
 (302, 303, 765, 883, 1181), and twice notes occur of such purport 
 that they may safely be attributed to his catalogue (692, 1242).* 
 Eratosthenes's treatise on the Old Comedy is once cited in the 
 scholia on the Aves (556) and one other note on this play 
 names him (122).^

 The number of volumes collected in the main Alexandrian 
 Library had become enormous in the last half of the third century 
 before Christ. Entertaining tales about the acquisition of books 
 Growth of by the first three Ptolemies, with small regard for 
 the Library private rights and none to cost, were rife in antiquity. 
 A book-trade had been established in Athens as early as the 
 middle of the fifth century before Christ,^ and in the next two 
 hundred years books were disseminated broadcast throughout 
 the Greek world, whence from all quarters they again converged 
 upon Alexandria. The mere fact that thirty-six plays of Aris- 
 tophanes are quoted or cited in the extant scholia on this author 
 will serve as an indication of the treasures housed in the great 
 
 Library. The text of these comedies had suffered in- 
 Aristophanic evitablc damage at the hands of careless scribes, of 
 
 willful actors, of dilettantish owners.^ Different copies 
 of a popular play would show marked variations of text. The 
 cataloguers had described them as they found them, those who 
 first used them had taken the copy that came to hand, but pres- 
 ently significant differences in readings pressed home and were 
 felt to demand a revision of the text. This important task was

 of Byzantium -^^ijgn g, jad to Alexandria with his father, a military 
 man, sat under all its greatest teachers,^ devoted himself to the

 ^ The errors due to the lieraxapam-riplaavTei belong in another category, but

 study of philology, and was appointed librarian in 195 B.C. at 
 the age of sixty-two.^ The few scholia on our poet to which the 
 learned scholar's name is attached relate chiefly to the text, — 
 to readings (Schol. Av. 1342, Thesm. 162), or the use of a-rjfjLela 
 (Av. 1178, Nub. 958, Thesm. 917, Ran. 153), or sources (Nub. 
 967^), or they deal with matters such as would naturally be treated 
 in a commentary (A v. 1463, 1541, 1620). Once his collection of 
 Prose Proverbs is cited (A v. 1292). Whether Aristophanes, in 
 his text edition of the poet, wrote the lyrics in cola or not cannot 
 now be determined. Nobody else is so likely to have introduced 
 this useful method of writing ; it certainly is not to be attributed 
 to Heliodorus.^ It is also uncertain whether Aristophanes wrote 
 a continuous commentary on our poet ; if he did, it was a separate 
 work.* His pupil Callistratus, however, commented 
 so fully on Aristophanes that we should assume that 
 he wrote a commentary on this author, even if there were not 
 express testimony to this fact (Schol. Av. 1337). Athenaeus re- 
 ports one also on a play of Cratinus.^ His notes on the Aves 
 (Schol. 436, 440, 530, 933, 997, 1337, 1378) and on other plays « 
 show that his scholarly interests had wide range. Aris- 
 tarchus, the most distmguished pupil oi Aristophanes 
 and the last of the heroes of Alexandrian scholarship, succeeded

 Suidas records that some forty pupils issued from his school and 
 that his commentaries alone required more than eight hundred 
 rolls. Among these was a commentary on Aristophanes. i 
 
 Letters steadily tended to pure scholarship in Alexandria in 
 the second century before Christ. Literature, such as it was, 
 gave way to erudition and criticism. Calhmachus, a 
 S^panT'"' poet admned by Catullus, imitated by Ovid, and 
 specialization ^^^^^^ ^y QuintiUan, is succeeded by Aristophanes, 
 one of the foremost scholars of the world, but a scholar simply. 
 Aristophanes, Callistratus, Aristarchus, were not ' literary men.' 
 The tendency, furthermore, was to specialization. The range of 
 Eratosthenes had been encyclopedic. He wrote with authority on 
 geography, mathematics, astronomy, philosophy, chronology, and 
 literary history. It is not for us to scoff if his poetry was not 
 of the highest order. But in Aristarchus the scholar, in the 
 broad sense attaching to this term in the preceding century, 
 narrowed into the specialist. He was, in modern phrase, a great 
 Greek scholar. The bounds of specialization, moreover, were 
 contracted in the second and succeeding centuries. Special 
 topics were made the subject of treatment. Of writers on 
 comedy, for example, Aristophanes wrote a tract on Comic 
 RSles,^ which probably had to do chiefly with the New Comedy, 
 and another with the surprising title TrapdXXrjXoi, MevdvSpov re 
 Kul a(l>' av eicXeyJrev ixXoyai. Porphyrins says that Aristophanes 
 treated this delicate subject 'gently' because of his exceeding 
 love of Menander. Aristophanes wrote also Introductions in set 
 form to the comedies of our poet and prefixed them each to its 
 own play in his text edition. The spurious hypotheses in verse

 book entitled ol KcofimSovfjievoi, a comic prosopography.^ A work 
 with the same title m at least six volumes is ascribed to 
 Herodicus of Babylon, an adherent of the Pergamene School

 Alexandrian School, wrote on the divisions of comedy and the 
 parts of the parabasis, whether in a separate tract or not is

 on the Ranae.® An ApoUonius, whom it is difficult to identify, 
 is likewise often quoted in the extant scholia on this play,^ as 
 well as an Asclepiades, quoted less frequently, but of equal 
 obscurity.^ Students of comedy in Alexandria must early have 
 given systematic attention to the meaning of words, since the 
 comic poets abound in terms, often tangled in a jest, that a 
 century after they were used demanded explanation if the

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTAEY xxiii 
 
 progress of the study of comedy had been specially investi- 
 gating other forms of the literature that was already regarded as 
 classic, both its verse and its prose. Even the specialist was 
 not confined to his particular field. Hardly a man has been 
 named in this survey of whom it cannot be affirmed on evidence 
 that he was actively interested also in some other range or 
 ranges of literature ; some of these scholars traversed a wide 
 field. Furthermore, the researches which finally took the form 
 of commentaries on the plays of comic poets were of broad 
 scope, involving the investigation of the life of the people of 
 ' ancient ' Greece in those aspects signified by the terms history, 
 biography, geography, topography, mythology, antiquities, man- 
 ners and customs, natural science, in short the ' matters of fact ' 
 comprehended by these investigators themselves in the word 
 laropiai, in distinction from verbal and linguistic study. Finally, 
 these- students of life were in association, in the Museum, in 
 the Schools, ia the Library, not only with one another but also 
 with able men who were creatively enlarging the bounds of 
 knowledge during this time in medicine, in mathematics and 
 astronomy, in geography and chronology, and less effectively in 
 philosophy and history. The pulse of the intellectual life was 
 strong in Alexandria in these years. Its typical scholar was not 
 a recluse, and it would have been well worth while to hear at 
 commons in the Museum the table-talk provoked by new discov- 
 eries, new theories, new books added to the Library, and the news 
 of the outer world brought by incoming scholars and travelers. 
 When a great scholar died, the books that he had written, or 
 copies of them, were added to the Library. Less eminent men 
 Additions to ^1^°' Prompted by an honorable ambition still mani-

 written books came in from other centres of study, Athens, 
 Pella, Antioch, Pergamum, Tarsus, Cos, and Rhodes. In the 
 first century before Christ; therefore, the libraries in Alexandria 
 housed not only thousands of manuscripts of Greek classics but 
 
xxiv ARISTOPHAJSTES 
 
 also critical editions and many interpretative writings of various 
 kinds that were the product of the centuries immediately preced- 
 ing. The great Alexandrian philologists had been genuinely 
 creative, not in literature but in science. It was these men 
 chiefly who by developing, systematizing, and illustrating the 
 principles of philology established the science of which Aristotle 
 had laid the foundations. Their critical powers were severely 
 Literary tested at the very beginning of the period, when 
 Criticism Zenodotus, Alexander, and Lycophron undertook the 
 classification and description of the thousands of rolls committed 
 to their charge. Each volume had to be assigned to its proper 
 category, its authorship and date determined, and the delicate 
 question answered whether it was genuine or a forgery; for 
 forgeries were rife in Alexandria, prompted by the well-known 
 desire of its earlier rulers to accumulate books. The task set 
 these men was too difficult to be accomplished with complete 
 success in the first attempt, and its results were revised by Cal- 
 limachus when he completed the catalogue. Eratosthenes in his 
 great work on the Old Comedy, investigating a single subject 
 minutely, must have found much to correct in previous records, 
 and Athenaeus relates ^ that Aristophanes wrote a book which 
 supplemented Callimachus's catalogue. These first systematic 
 attempts in criticism in the field of literary history were thus 
 successively scrutinized with the general result of gradual im- 
 provement in method. 
 
 The art of textual criticism was established by Zenodotus, 
 Aristophanes, and Aristarchus. Zenodotus was the first scholar 
 Textual *o attempt to form a text by orderly comparison of 
 Criticism uncontaminatcd manuscripts ; he was the first critical 
 editor of Homer, and his edition of the Iliad and Odyssey was 
 the first recension of the text of any author that sought to 
 restore the original. His distinction as the originator of a sound 
 method is not greatly diminished by the fact that in applying 
 it he was often controlled in his choice of readings, and in

 conjectural restorations of corrupt passages, by considerations that 
 
 were too subjective. Here again the work of the pioneer was 
 
 subjected to discussion by his successors, Aristophanes and Aris- 
 
 tarchus. The latter even subjected his own work to his own 
 
 criticism, in publishing two text editions of the Plomeric poems. 
 
 These three scholars edited the text of other authors as well as 
 
 that of Homer. Finally it must not be forgotten that 
 Exegesis . . i ■ ■, , ■, 
 
 systematic commentaries on 'classical authors were 
 
 the invention of the scholars of Alexandria. The methods of 
 literary, textual, and exegetical criticism that these scholars 
 originated have been of permanent value. It is sheer self- 
 complacence that would lightly esteem the service that they 
 rendered to posterity, sheer prejudice that fails to find in the 
 extant scholia to classical authors, however mutilated and abbre- 
 viated, indubitable remains of their handiwork and satisfactory 
 exemplification of their methods. 
 
 But towards the close of the Alexandrian period scientific 
 
 methods of investigation had been established in philology and 
 
 their applications amply illustrated. The time had come to 
 
 gather, sift, and arrange results. This task was undertaken by 
 
 Didymus, in the last half of the first century before 
 
 Bidymusthe ^, . , , . , . , , , , 
 
 first Variorum Christ,^ who may with propriety be regarded as the 
 first scholar to compose variorum editions of the 
 Greek classics. Such was the nature of the service he rendered 
 to students of Greek comedy. He was a collector, not a scholar 
 of original and creative genius ; he gathered and transmitted to 
 later ages the results of the labors of other men when these were 
 in imminent danger of loss. Even his commentaries on the

 cannot now be determined, since he closes the Alexandrian period. Schmidt,

 some later Latin writers.^ It is reported that he wrote over 3500 
 ' books.' This is not incredible, granted a man of ' iron bowels,' ^ 
 for a ' book ' was then a papyrus roll of limited extent.* The 
 comic poets were included within the range of this extraordinary 
 activity. Besides Aristophanes, Didymus commented on Menan- 
 der,s and among older comedians on Phrynichus, Eupolis, and 
 probably Cratinus.^ He compiled also a Lexicon to the Comic 
 Poets, which was extensively excerpted by later lexicographers 
 and scholiasts.'' His treatise on Corruption of Words is twice 
 quoted in our scholia (Schol. Av. 768, PL 388). 
 
 Didymus, although professionally a collector of the results of 
 abler men's labors, was at the same time a learned man of acute 
 and discriminating mind. His commentaries, so far as they can 
 His inteiiec- ^c recovered, show that his interests were literary, 
 tuai Interests historical, biographical, and antiquarian, rather than 
 linguistic. This view is confirmed by his commentary on four 
 orations of Demosthenes, including the reply to the letter of

 ' The text of a play of 1225 lines (verses and cola), such as the Acharnians, 
 would require a roll nearly twenty-one feet long, if written on sheets seven 
 and one eighth inches broad with thirty-five lines to the column as in the Cairo 
 papyrus of Menander. A commentary filling a roll of the same length, if 
 written solidly on sheets of the same width in the hand of the scribe of Di'dy-

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTARY xxvii 
 
 Philip, to which reference has just been made ; but the same con- 
 clusion as to his intellectual bent is to be drawn also from the 
 extant commentary on plays of Aristophanes. A word needs to 
 be premised. A second editor of a variorum commentary on 
 Aristophanes, Symmachus, appeared about one hundred years 
 after Didymus, and some centuries still later an anonymous 
 scholar again undertook the task of compilation. These editions 
 will shortly be more fully considered. For the present it 
 suffices to remark that, as the result of successive compilations, 
 A Problem in ^^ is Sometimes difficult to determine, when Didymus 
 the Scholia ^^^ some Other scholar) is named, just how much of 
 the extant scholium is to be attributed to him. One may feel 
 doubtful, for example, about Schol. Av. 13. Is Didymus the 
 source of the historical reference that explains the word-play on 
 Orneae or has the anonymous compiler drawn this from some 
 other source ? Similarly in Schol. Av. 816 is the definition that 
 follows the paraphrase Didymus's ? The key to the solution of 
 this source of perplexity is to be found in other notes that are 
 less doubtful. In these Didymus is sometimes quoted alone and 
 verbally, as in Schol. Av. 768, 835 (ovtoj AiBv/xo^), 836, 1273 
 (owTO) At'Sv/io?), 1521. The limits of his comment are here marked 
 with reasonable certainty, and notes such as those on 835 and 
 1273 make it probable that when notes occur like those on 13, 
 816, 1113, the whole is to be ascribed to Didymus, especially 
 since in most cases the note from another source is given as a 
 separate comment, either with the lemma repeated or with dWo)^. 
 Cf. Schol. Av. 768, 816, 885, 1113, 1273, 1521. The limits are 
 even clearer when, as often happens, the final compiler of the 
 notes contrasts Didymus's view with Symmachus's, or sets it 
 over against a view that he has adopted from some other source, 
 generally unnamed. For the former, cf. Schol. Av. 704, 876, 
 994, 1000, 1121, 1283, 1294, 1297, 1364, 1379, 1681, 1704 ; for 
 the latter, Schol. Av. 43, 217, 304, 530, 737, 824, 1112, 1295. 
 It is reasonable, therefore, to conclude in general that the note 
 to which a scholar's name is attached is to be attributed wholly 
 
xxviii ARISTOPHANES 
 
 to him ; but, in view of the compressed form and often confused 
 arrangement of the schoHa as now found on the margins of our 
 manuscripts, this working principle must not be pressed too far. 
 A classification of the notes on the Aves to which the name 
 of Didymus is attached shows that his mterest in linguistic inter- 
 pretation is secondary. Notes on accent are attributed 
 Notes on the to Mm on 58 and 1121, and on 149 he observes that 
 the poet used the mascuhne form AeTr/aeos. He ven- 
 tures two etymologies on 149 and 1283, and gives glosses on 
 530 and 1521. Like all other Alexandrians he often interprets 
 by paraphrase, as on 816, 994, 1273, 1678, but he falls into 
 the rhetorical trap only once, on 1112. Twice he essays the 
 text, rightly declaring for KrjpvXo'; in 299, but proposing on 
 1681 an impossible solution of a notorious difficulty. His main 
 interest as interpreter hes elsewhere. The point may be his- 
 torical, as on 13, where he cites Androtion in support of liis 
 explanation, as on 1379 he cites Aristotle on a matter of proso- 
 pography ; or topograpMcal, as on 149, 737. He is interested 
 in antiquities. On 217 he touches on the primitive elegy and 
 the fitting musical instrument to accompany it; on 704, the 
 omen signified by the flight of a bird on the right; on 876, the 
 attendance of sodomites in the mysteries of Rhea; on 1000, 
 the shape of the charcoal-kiln; on 1273, the duties of a boat- 
 swain ; on 1704, the Homeric bloody sacrifice, acutely explaining 
 how Aristophanes builds a jest on this. In three notes, on 43, 
 994, 1364, he remarks on the dress or equipment of actors. He 
 ventures also into ornithology, and on 304 identifies the tto/j- 
 ^fpt? as a /iLKpk lepa^; on 737 explains the poet's Movaa 
 XoxiJ-aCa by notmg that the nightingale is preeminently a song- 
 ster; on 768 notes the tricks of the partridge; on 1113 differ- 
 entiates the crop of a bird from the gizzard. But he is more 
 interested in persons, and his prosopographical notes are generally 
 detailed. On 440 he identifies the poet's ' Ape ' with Panaetius 
 and explains the jest, missed by modern editors, that lies in calling 
 him fiaxaipoiroioi; ; on 876 he shows the propriety of regarding 
 
THE OLD GEEEK COMMENTAEY xxix 
 
 the sparrow, a lascivious bird, as the mother of Cleocritus, a 
 catamite; on 1294, 1295, 1297, he gives information about four 
 of Aristophanes's 'birdmen,' on Midias m 1297 at length, quot- 
 ing Ammonius with approval and quoting or citing several 
 comic poets ; and on 1379 he has a corresponding note on 
 Cinesias. He shows appreciation of the poet's jests in liis notes 
 on 13, 440, 816, 824 (an acute observation), 835, and 1704, 
 missmg the point only once, on 835. But the most surprising 
 and agreeable feature of his annotation is his appeal to the poets 
 in establisliing or illustrating his points. Thus on 704 he quotes 
 a choUamb from some anonymous poet ; on 1121 the first verse 
 of Pindar's First Nemean ; on 1283 he quotes from Epicharmus ; 
 on 1297 from Plato's Perialges; on 1681 from our own play; 
 and on 1704 from Homer. His citations also are numerous, as 
 if he (or the scholar to whom he was indebted for the citation) 
 assumed that his readers would have the originals in hand. 
 Thus on 440, 876, 1294, 1297, he cites the Demi, Flatterers, 
 and Taxiarchs of Eupolis, the Ephialtes and Poastriae of Phryni- 
 chus, the Islands of Aristophanes, the Victories of Plato, the 
 Homer of Metagenes, and the anonymous Atalantae.^ These are 
 not the notes of a dullard.^ They are not, of course, in their 
 original form, but have been greatly abbreviated by subsequent 
 editors and scribes. We have now a more satisfactory exempli- 
 fication of Didymus's style in his commentary on Demosthenes, 
 although even tliis is probably not m its exact original form.

 continuously involved in them. Didymus's scholarly activity 
 falls partly within this period, but chiefly beyond it in the time 
 of Augustus. To what extent were Didymus and his successors 
 m the first century of the Christian era able and disposed to 
 mamtain the traditions of Alexandrian scholarship ? Had they 
 the necessary means at their command and did Alexandria con- 
 tinue to be the attractive home of scholars ? These questions 
 intimately concern our present inquury into the history and con- 
 stitution of the Aristophanic scholia. To put them specifically, 
 — what was the state of the Alexandrian libraries in 30 B.C. 
 and how did the strong set of the current of men's interests at 
 this time towards Rome affect studies in Alexandria ? 
 
 At the time of the battle of Pharsalus the great Library con- 
 nected with the Museum and that in the Serapeum were still 
 intact. The total number of volumes in these libraries 
 The Libraries ^^^ greatly increased since the reign of Philadelphus, 
 when on the authority of Tzetzes it was 532,800.1 It is not in 
 itself incredible, therefore, that, as Gellius and Ammianus Mar- 
 cellinus report in later times, the number was 700,000 when 
 Julius Caesar arrived in Alexandria, even if the special liability 
 of papyrus books to decay (less, however, in Egypt than else- 
 where) is taken into account, and proper deductions are made 
 for loss from use and accidental causes. Furthermore, Antony 
 at some time towards the close of his life transferred to Alex- 
 andria the library of 200,000 volumes that had been gathered 
 in Pergamum. This was one of the infatuated man's gifts to 
 Cleopatra. The offense was so grave that Calvisius made it the 
 ground of a charge against him ^ when Augustus, as he was to be

 Plutarch, etKO(ri nvptdSet 0i/3\Iuv dirXHr (Introd. 13, n. 1), indicates a good source. 
 Dziatzko, moreover, suggests that the present condition of the much discussed 
 eastern chamber in the existing remains of the library in Pergamum indicates 
 that it may have been reconstructed, as if for other use, after the removal of 
 the books. See Dziatzko in Pauly-Wissowa's Ueal-Encyclopadie III 414 f. and

 named, read clauses in Antony's will to the Roman Senate. But 
 
 not all these books were in Alexandria when Egypt became a 
 
 Roman province. Some of the original accumulations, made 
 
 before the books from Pergamum were added, had been burnt in 
 
 Conflagration ^'^ ^.c. at the time Julius Caesar was obliged to fire 
 
 in 47 B.C. ^]^g seventy-two ships of war in the Great Harbor and 
 
 those in the dockyard when besieged in the city by the forces of 
 
 the party under Pothinus. The fact of the burning is reported, 
 
 in greater or less detail and with greater or less ex- 
 Testimonies . . ° 
 
 actness, by many ancient writers. Some scholars have 
 
 concluded from these accounts that the great Library was totally 
 
 destroyed at this time.^ Caesar himself says nothing

 about the loss of books when he was compelled to set 
 the ships on fire.*^ Plutarch, although his account of events from 
 the revolt of Achillas to Caesar's departure from Alex- 
 andria for Asia is very brief, is in remarkable agree- 
 ment with Caesar in clearly recognizing the gravity of Caesar's 
 situation.^ Caesar's safety depended on his preventing the 
 enemy from acquiring control of the ships, and his only possible 
 course was to burn them. No other authority, not 
 Ammianus ' even Cassius Dio,^ thus clearly recognizes the stern 
 necessity of Caesar's action. Ammianus Marcellinus^ 
 
 1 Von Wilamowitz has expressed this view (Herakles I^ 162, Einleitung 163) 
 and drawn conclusions from it that seem to me to be doubtful. See also Suse- 
 mihl in his Griechische Litteratur I 344. Mahaffy, on the other hand, is dis- 
 posed to consider the story of the burning of the Library as wholly a fabrication.

 Dynasty (1899) 242. Bouch^-Leclercq in his Histoire dea Lagides II (1904)

 names Caesar only in order to fix the time, Seneca ^ does not 
 mention him. Orosius,^ alleging that the royal fleet 
 orosTus, had been hauled on shore, says simply that orders 
 
 Geiuus ^ere given by somebody not named to set it on fire, 
 
 and Gellius^ states in positive terms that the fire which de- 
 stroyed the ships was accidentally kindled. Plutarch and Dio 
 then proceed to narrate that the dockyard also was burnt, as 
 Caesar clearly implies, and add that the fire spread, a statement 
 made also by Orosius. 
 
 Some interpreters have thought that at this point Orosius, the 
 latest of our authorities, writing in the beginning of the fifth 
 Testimony o£ century after Christ, iutroduces new and significant 
 Orosius detail. Parthey^ concluded from his words, "quadrin- 
 
 genta miha librorum proximis forte aedibus condita," that Caesar 
 had had the books removed from the Library and brought provi- 
 sionally to the 'buildings ' (^sio') in which they were burnt, with the 
 intention, perhaps, of carrying them back to Rome and exhibitmg 
 them in his triumph. Caesar, we know, had made public libraries 
 a feature of his general plan for the adornment of Rome and 
 had called to his aid in accomplishing this no less distinguished a 
 man than Varro.® It is an alluring supposition that he was now 
 meaning to carry this great collection of books home to constitute 
 the first public library in Rome. But Alexandria was then 
 seething with hostility to Caesar, whose force was small, and 
 Pompey's party still had a powerful fleet afloat. It would have 
 been extremely difiicult, if not impossible, in times so troubled 
 as these, either to transfer 400,000 papyrus rolls from the Library 
 to the dock or to transport them so great a distance across the 
 sea. The most recent advocate of this view silently adopts the 
 reading " quadraginta milia " in the clause quoted from Orosius.^ 
 But this reading is forbidden both by the best tradition of

 Orosius's text (see Zangemeister's critical report) and by the 
 following context. Orosius proceeds to state, in language so 
 turgid that Parthey, embracing the counsel of despair, declares 
 it corrupt, that the empty ' armaria,' which were still to be seen 
 ' in temples ' plundered of their contents by men of his own day, 
 suggested rather that books had been emulously collected afresh 
 after the burning than that a second hbrary, apart from the 
 400,000 volumes, had existed in Alexandria at that time and 
 had escaped destruction. The very point of his lucubration hes 
 in the vast number and is lost if we reduce this to 40,000. But 
 his rhetorical speculations are futile, for there was in fact another 
 very considerable library in Alexandria at the time of the fire, 
 and moreover it had been there since the time of Philadelphus : 
 the hbrary in the Serapeum. Orosius has no standing as a 
 historian. He undertook to write a universal history, but could 
 not use Greek sources of information.^ Casaubon declared that 
 no dependence could be placed on his statements of fact unless 
 corroborated by some other and trustworthy writer.'^

 ^ It is by no means certain that the interpretation that has been given to the 
 ■words " quadringenta milia librorum proximis forte aedibus condita" is what 
 Orosius meant. At the time he was writing (about 415 a.d.) there were no 
 pagan books of consequence and no library-buildings in Alexandria, as indeed 
 his own words testify. The Bruchion, in which tradition places the great 
 Library (Epiphan. De Mens, et Ponder, xi 168 = III 256 Migne), had been 
 destroyed at the end of the third century in the time of Aurelian (Amm. Marc, 
 xxii 16 15), and a century later under Theodosius I the temple of Serapis was 
 transformed into a Christian church and monastery (Eunap. Aedes. 472 Didot ; 
 Theoph. Chron. 71 7 ff. de Boor). Presumably, therefore, Orosius was ignorant, 
 of the original situation of the Library, and he may merely be saying : ' 400,000 
 volumes were burnt which were housed in a building that as it chanced was. 
 situated close to the dockyard.' It would be quite in his manner to assume 
 without investigation that since books were destroyed — a notorious fact — the 
 library in which they were stored must have been close to the source of the fire. 
 
xxxiv ARISTOPHANES 
 
 the Christian era, discredits his own statement. He gives the 
 number of volumes in the total collections made by the Ptole- 
 mies ' in Egypt ' and says that these were all burnt, but we know 
 that the Ubrary in the Serapeum was not affected. Ammianus, 
 two centuries later, is even less credible. He says that both 
 hbraries were burnt, but his knowledge of them is so vague and 
 untrustworthy that he places them both in the Serapeum. 
 Seneca makes a brief statement in passing, but even in this falls 
 into at least one grave error.i Two testimonies remain. Plu- 
 tarch, writing in the first century after Clirist, says that 'the 
 great Library was destroyed.' Dio, who was a painstaking his- 
 torian, writing at the beginning of the third century, says that 
 ' the repository of the books,' i.e. the Library, ' was burnt.' Do 
 these statements justify the conclusion that the great Library and 
 
 its contents were totally destroyed ? This inquiry is 
 Destruction perplexed by our ignorance of the exact situation 
 
 of the Library. It is a rational inference from the 
 language of Plutarch and Dio that it cannot have been far 
 removed from the dockyard. Strabo states that the Museum 
 was in the royal quarter of the town, where the palaces built by 
 successive Ptolemies were situated, and scholars are agreed that 
 
 1 quadraginta milia librorum Alexandriae arserunt. pulcherrimum regiae 
 opulentiae monumentum alius laudaverit, sicut et Livius, qui ' elegantiae regum 
 curaeque egregium id opus ' ait ' f uisse.' non fuit elegantia illud aut cura, sed 
 studiosa luxuria. De Tranquill. Animi ix 5. — The number of tlie books that 
 Seneca here says were burnt is far below that mentioned by any other of our 
 authorities, and, what is more important, far below that which we know the 
 great Library must have contained at this time. But his error is not surprising. 
 His main theme in this passage is a biting criticism of the dilettanti who affected 
 the acquisition of libraries, with a thrust, on the side, at Livy. The number of 
 books burnt in Alexandria was not, for the matter he had in hand, of any par- 
 ticular importance, and doubtless 40,000 volumes would have seemed to him or 
 to any Roman of his time a generous provision for a library. Books were not 
 gathered in one great library in Rome, but were housed separately in relatively 
 small collections, as that of Asinius Pollio in the Atrium Libertatis and the two 
 established by Augustus in the temple of Apollo on the Palatine. There were 
 ultimately twenty-eight of these smaller libraries in the city. See the authori- 
 ties cited by Max Ihm in Die Bibliotheken im alten Eom, Centralblatt fur 
 Bibliothekswesen X (1893) 513 fi. 
 
THE OLD GREEK COMMENTARY xxxv 
 
 the Museum and the Library, from the very nature of the pur- 
 pose to which they were devoted, must have been near one 
 another. Dio implies that the fire spread to the northeast along 
 the shore of the Great Harbor, passing from the dockyard, which 
 abutted on the heptastadium, to the public granaries,^ which 
 were connected with the emporium, and thus on to the Library, 
 but neither Library nor Museum can have been on the shore, for 
 Strabo gives an enumeration of all structures alongshore from 
 the promontory Lochias to the heptastadium and mentions 
 neither of them. We reach the general conclusion that the 
 Museum and Library were somewhere in the northern part of 
 the city not far from the shore of the Great Harbor.^ This was 
 the part of the town in which Caesar took up his quarters when 
 he landed. At the time of the fire he was occupying, he relates, 
 one of the palaces. This was immediately connected with the 
 theatre, which had approaches to the Great Harbor.^ The 
 theatre is included by Strabo in his enumeration of the buildings 
 alongshore, and was separated from the emporium and ware- 
 houses at the time of the fire only by the temple of Poseidon. 
 The total destruction of the Library would imply a general 
 conflagration at this time in this part of the city, but this sup- 
 position is excluded by Caesar's statement that he fortified his 
 position the night after the fire and subsequently enlarged the 
 area he occupied. Here his narrative breaks off, but the author 
 of the Bellum Alexandrinum (probably Hirtius, Caesar's intimate 
 friend) continues the account. He describes the gradual enlarge- 
 ment of Caesar's fortified position and says categorically that 
 the damage done in the heavy fighting did not result from fire,

 from the northeast to the southwest. 
 
 2 On the ground of excavations made in 1866 by command of Napoleon III, 
 it has been conjectured, in disagreement with the ancient evidence, that the 
 Museum was situated in the western part of the city about a quarter of a mile 
 from the Great Harbor. See Stoffel's Histoire de Jules CAsar II (1887) 257 ff.

 since wood was not used in the construction of the buildings. 
 These contemporary accounts are confirmed by Strabo, who 
 visited Alexandria only twenty-tlnree years later and has given 
 the only complete description of the city that is still extant. 
 The Museum was then intact. He describes this, the palaces, the 
 tomb of Alexander, Pharos and the buildings along the Harbor 
 and many notable structures in other parts of the city, which 
 was beginning to prosper under Roman rule. The dockyard 
 and warehouses had been restored. These various considera- 
 tions justify the conclusion that Plutarch's and Dio's statements 
 that the Library was 'destroyed' or 'burnt' should not be 
 interpreted literally. The Library was in the track of the fire, 
 but presumably at its lunit ; it must have been a large buildmg, 
 covering a great area, if it housed 500,000 or 600,000 papyrus 
 rolls and contained work-rooms for students and the staff ; the 
 damage done to the building may have been great and the loss 
 of books serious, but it is improbable that both build- 
 conciusion .^^ ^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^^ totally destroyed. Caesar was a 
 
 man of letters as well as of arms ; his silence would seem in- 
 credible, if he had been the cause, however innocent, of so irrepa- 
 rable a loss. His contemporary Cicero, who studied in Athens 
 and Rhodes and knew the East, would have felt this loss deeply, 
 but there is no mention of it in his voluminous writings. 
 Strabo's silence also is intelligible on the assumption that the 
 Library may have been seriously damaged, but had not burnt

 of Didymus's scholarly activity. He may have deliberately

 supposition: Aristarchus had made two recensions of the text 
 of Homer; both were lost, presumably in the great fire, and 
 Didymus undertook to restore the Aristarchean readings by such 
 means as he could command. ^

 certainly, could then have furnished him such ample means for 
 prosecuting his task. Here was still the greatest collection of 
 books in the world, as Mommsen has observed.^ The temple of 
 Serapis was very splendid. Ammianus compares it with the

 erected the building in which it was housed.^ Both the Alex- 
 andrian and the Pergamene collections were made rapidly and 
 consisted originally of books (papyrus-rolls) purchased in the 
 book-markets of all Greece.^ Pliny relates that one of the Ptole- 
 mies, jealous of the growth of the library in Pergamum under 
 Eumenes II, forbade the exportation of papyrus-paper from 
 Egypt and that the use of parchment as writing-material was 
 thereupon 'discovered' in Pergamum.^ The last part of tins 
 statement is as absurd as the corresponding tale in Pliny * that 
 the use of papyrus-paper was not discovered till after the founda- 
 tion of Alexandria; 5 but, granted that Ptolemy Epiphanes or 
 Ptolemy Philometor imposed some such restriction as Pliny 
 relates, its bearing and eSect should not be misconceived. The 
 library in Pergamum was not a collection of parchment books, 
 as is sometimes carelessly stated. The main part of this library 
 must already have been collected when Ptolemy imposed his re- 
 striction : his rival was now formidable. His edict did not pre- 
 vent the subsequent acquisition of books in the markets, although 
 it may have raised the price of both books and papyrus-paper; 
 its temporary effect may have been to necessitate some use of 
 parchment for rolls written or copied in Pergamum, but siuce 
 parchment did not come into general use until centuries after 
 this time,^ the effect of Ptolemy's embargo cannot have been 
 momentous. In contents the two libraries did differ: Alex- 
 andria had the best collection of the old Greek poets, Per- 
 gamum of the masters of prose, and Didymus may have been 
 attracted to writing commentaries on the Attic orators by the 
 excellence of the Pergamene collection. He may also have found 
 in this library the means of restoring the Homeric recension of

 Aristarchus, the last of the ' heroes ' of Alexandrian scholarship 
 and the contemporary of Eumenes II. For it is likely that 
 copies of most of the books written by the great Alexandrian 
 scholars were in the Pergamene collection, precisely for the 
 reason that the two schools were in sharp rivalry. In order 
 to attack a rival successfully, it is necessary first to learn his 
 views. Didymus, then, probably found in the Pergamene books 
 brought to Alexandria by the order of Antony excellent, although 
 doubtless incomplete, compensation for whatever books had been 
 lost when the great Library was set on fire. 
 
 It is also probable that Didymus pursued his task continu- 
 ously in Alexandria. There is no evidence that he taught in 
 Rome, although this is assumed as a fact or stated 
 
 Did Didymus . 
 
 teach in with greater or less confidence in some modern books. 
 This view has doubtless been promoted by an unfor- 
 tunate conjectural reconstruction, which M. Schmidt proposed 
 sixty years ago,^ of the text of Suidas's account of Didymus 
 Chalcenterus and Didymus the Younger. Suidas says of the 
 latter : Ai'Su/UO? z^eo? ' AXe^avSpeiif ypaf^fiariKO^, 09 iao(f>ia-Teva-ev 
 ev'Vcoiiy eypayjre TTidavd, Trepl 6pdo'ypa(j)ia'; Kal aWa. Schmidt's 
 drastic and discredited ' emendation ' removes the first four words 
 and combines the remainder with Suidas's account of the elder 
 Didymus. But although it is probable that Didymus himself 
 never taught in Rome, other Alexandrian scholars, his contem- 
 poraries and successors, did resort to it. Strabo, at the close of 
 his glowing account of the state of scholarship in Tarsus in his 
 time, declares that Rome was then full of scholars from Tarsus 
 and Alexandria.^ This is a pardonable exaggeration, for learned 
 men resident even in distant parts of the world were then strongly

 tures that Suetonius says ^ first roused interest at Rome in the 
 scholarly study of literature, Pergamene Greeks began to jour- 
 ney westward, Panaetius, Asclepiades Myrleanus, ApoUodorus, 
 Athenodorus.2 Political and conunercial relations had been 
 maintained between Rome and Egypt from the time of Philadel- 
 phus to that of Cleopatra,^ but Egypt remained an independent 
 sovereignty long after Greece and Pergamum passed under 
 Roman control, and few among the Greek scholars who first 
 frequented Rome were Alexandrians.^ Alexandria remained 
 'the home of scientific inquiry and of hterary activity' even 
 after the reported atrocities of Ptolemy Physcon (145-116 B.C.), 
 who is declared to have driven forth its learned men.^ It con- 
 tinued to flourish as a seat of learning attractive to scholars even 
 in the troubled times that followed his reign ; but when Augustus 
 Astute Policy inaugurated his unexpected but astute pohcy of con- 
 of Augustus ciliation by distiaguishing personally with signal honor 
 the Stoic philosopher Areius Didymus of Alexandria, he turned 
 the eyes of Alexandrian scholars towards Rome. Plutarch 
 relates that he entered Alexandria holding Areius by the hand 
 and discoursing with him alone of all his companions, and then 
 said, addressing the Alexandrians, who were expecting the 
 utmost severity, that he pardoned them first because of the 
 greatness of their city, secondly in recollection of its founder 
 Alexander, and thirdly, he continued, turning to Areius, 'to 
 gratify my friend.' ® Augustus pursued this wise and friendly

 Temple of Splendid ' temple ' in honor of Caesar ^ of which 
 Cffisar Strabo indicates the situation.^ If Philo's account 
 
 may be trusted, it rivalled the Museum and the Library.^ 
 
 Under Roman rule, then, Alexandrian scholars also repaired 
 to Rome, either for a time or to remain, chiefly as teachers. We 
 are better informed about the scholarly activity of these learned 
 Alexandrians than about their movements, and we cannot logi- 
 cally conclude that a given scholar did not resort to Rome because 
 the fact of his residence there is not recorded in any extant 
 authority, although the lack of a record establishes a presump- 
 tion. This presumption is raised in Didymus's case to a high 
 degree of probability by other considerations. His 
 
 Didymus ° J J 
 
 probably immense productivity precludes the supposition that 
 he can have devoted much time to lecturing in any 
 place, but this would have been his chief vocation ia Rome. 
 He was a writer,* and Rome could not then have furnished him 
 the means of prosecu.ting his peculiar task — he would have 
 been hindered at every turn by lack of books.^

 5 Any demand in Rome for Didymus's own books would have been met by 
 the book-trade, which had flourished in Alexandria since the founding of the 
 libraries. Strabo (xiii 609) complains that booksellers both in Rome and in 
 Alexandria were careless in selecting the scribes they employed and in their 
 ' proof-reading.' In the earlier time even the greatest scholars lent the trade 
 their assistance in preparing editions. See von Wilamowitz, Serakles V 138 f .

 now more favorable in many particulars than they had been in

 ^^ Didymus's younger contemporaries, maintained the 
 
 later Alexandrian traditions of pure scholarship. He was a 
 specialist in grammar, but his most valuable investigations were 
 in dialectology. Titles and fragments of some thirty of his 
 works, which were heavily excerpted by later grammarians and 
 lexicographers, have been recorded.^ Among his books was a 
 rhetorical treatise on Tropes. The extant work,* which bears

 of Didymus. His teachers were ApoUonius, son of Archibius, and 
 Euphranor, then a venerable man who had topped Ms hundredth

 Theon. Apion was teaching in Rome in the time of Tiberius, 
 who called him 'cymbalum mundi.' In the time of Caligula^

 his books, of which some were on grammatical subjects, was an

 EpaphtodituB n t 
 
 Epaphroditus were characteristic of the time. Born 
 in Chaeronea, he became when a lad the slave of the Alexandrian 
 scholar Archias, who reared and educated him. He passed into 
 the possession of Modestus, then eparch of Egypt, became the 
 tutor of his son, was freed and rose to distinction as author and 
 teacher in Rome during the last half of the first century. It 
 was during this time that by strange reversal of fortune he 
 owned Epictetus as a slave and in his turn reared and educated 
 him. Epaphroditus collected a library of 30,000 volumes and 
 applied its resources to the composition of treatises on Homer's 
 Iliad and Odyssey, Hesiod's Shield, and Callimachus's Origins, 
 and especially of a Lexicon,^ books that were all prized and often 
 quoted by his successors.^ Every age produces its literary 
 impostors, brilliant but shallow, and greedy of applause. Life 
 was gayer in the time of Caligula by reason of Apion's far- 
 fetched tales of Homer, with whom he affected to be in spiritual 
 Ptolemy communication. Another man of inventions was that 
 chennus Alexandrian Ptolemy surnamed Chennus ^ who lived 
 at the end of the first and beginning of the second centuries 
 of the Christian era, and wrote books of which the titles are 
 significant of their peculiar contents, — an epic Anthomerus 
 in twenty-four rhapsodies, a Paradoxical History, and a New 
 History. The last was read by Photius, and we are fortunate 
 in possessing not only that eminent patriarch's summary of its 
 contents but also his estimate of its worth and of its author.*

 Ptolemy wrote also a historico-mythological drama named the

 Irenaeus, an Alexandrian Greek, pupil of the metri- 
 irenaeus ^.^^ Heliodorus, and one of the foremost Atticists of 
 the time of Hadrian. His Latinized name Pacatus ^ (Minucius 
 Pacatus) undoubtedly signifies relations with Rome, but so far 
 as we know he wrote exclusively in Greek. Besides his books 
 on Atticism, of which Suidas gives the titles, he composed com- 
 mentaries on Herodotus, Euripides's Medea, and the Axgonautica 
 of ApoUonius Rhodius.^ Amarantus wrote a commen- 
 Amarantus ^^^^ ^^ Theocritus and a work on the stage, which 
 seems to have been a biographical account of Greek actors.^ He 
 was personally acquainted with Galen, who studied in Alexan- 
 dria before he settled in Rome. Nicanor, an Alex- 
 Nicanor andrian Greek of the time of Hadrian,^ one of the 
 
 recognized sources of the Homeric scholia, was noted as the 
 author of a work on punctuation in six volumes, of which he 
 himself pubhshed an epitome. He distinguished eight stops 
 as means of discriminating shades of the thought, and apphed 
 them to Homer and Callimachus. So ardent was his advocacy 
 of his doctrine that he was dubbed o aTiyfiaria';. Suidas reports 
 also a book with the title Kwixcphovfieva, about which we wish we 
 were better informed. The technical rhetorician Theon, with the 
 given name Aelius, falls in the same time. Suidas 
 calls him ' sophist ' ® and gives the titles of various 
 rhetorical treatises of which he was the author. His Progymnas-

 teemed and is still extant.'' His interest in his specialty is shown

 Apouonius ApoUonius Dyscolus, whom so eminent an authority 
 Dyscoius ^g Priscian regarded as the greatest of grammarians.^

 of the subject and still in the main extant. The ApoUonius 
 to whom certain grammatical notes in our scholia are ascribed 
 is probably ApoUonius Dyscolus.^ His son and pupil 
 Herodian ^ was also a grammarian of great distinction, 
 but settled in Rome and there won the permanent favor of 
 Marcus Aurelius.^ 
 
 This brief account of noteworthy Alexandrian philologists 
 who lived in the first two centuries after the establishment of 
 Roman rule in Egypt would not meet its purpose, if it failed 
 to note the importance of Alexandria in this period in metrical 
 Metrical scicncc. Two theories of Greek metric prevailed in

 nally formulated I believe to have been based on a correct 
 perception of the true structure of Greek verse, is Alexan- 
 drian ; ^ the other, that of the derivationists, is attributed to 
 Varro.'^ Who formulated the Alexandrian system? Its chief 
 characteristic feature is the clear recognition of certain funda- 
 mental elements of rhythmical measurement. Of these 'proto- 
 types' Philoxenus assumed ten, Heliodorus eight, Hephaestion

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTAEY xlix 
 
 is confirmed by errors, discrepancies, and deficiencies in the ex- 
 tant remains of these three metricians. Aristoxenus had estab- 
 lished rhythmic on solid foundations in the time of Alexander 
 the Great and thereby powerfully stimulated the scientific study 
 of Greek verse, and in the next century Aristophanes of Byzan- 
 tium raised the whole question of metrical form by his inves- 
 tigations in colometry, of which the results were published in his 
 colometrical editions of Pindar, and probably the tragic drama- 
 tists and the poet Aristophanes.^ The learned scholar's task 
 was by no means simple, and implies special knowledge of both 
 rhythmic and metric. No doubt the great Library furnished him 
 texts of some of the lyrics that he was investigating with the 
 music still written above the solid lines of text, but probably it was 
 lacking in the case of most of the odes, for the booksellers elimi- 
 nated it early.2 For example, the recently discovered papyrus 
 containing the Persians of Timotheus, a manuscript which von 
 Wilamowitz assigns to the end of the fourth century before Christ, 
 is in solid lines without the music.^ It is possible that Aristopha- 
 nes formulated the metrical system of which the chief exponents 
 for us are now Heliodorus and Hephaestion ; he was deeply in- 
 terested in the subject and possessed adequate knowledge ; no 
 other Alexandrian is so likely to have rendered this useful service. 
 Symmachus, the compiler of the second variorum edition of 
 the comedies of Aristophanes, falls somewhere within the period 
 Symmachus, j^st Surveyed. Ancient testimony as to this scholar's 
 ^riorem* ^^^ ^^^ place is lacking, and conclusions on these 
 Editor points are limited to such inferences as may reasonably

 2 See von Wilamowitz, Timotheos-Papyrus, Lichtdruck-Ausgabe (1903). It 
 is noteworthy that the paeonic hymns to Apollo discovered in Delphi preserve the 
 music, but the Paean of Isyllus found in Epidaurus omits it ; all three are inscrip- 
 tions in solid lines. For the former, see Bulletin de correspondanoe hell^nique 
 XVII (1893) plates xxi, xxi bis, and XVIII (1894) plates xii, xii bis, and Jan's

 be drawn from the notes attributed to him in the extant scholia 
 on Aristophanes' s plays and a few chance references to him else- 
 where, and from the state of scholarship and conditions of study 
 that prevailed in the period after Didymus. Modern opinion is 
 almost unanimous that he followed Didymus in order 
 His date ^^ time,i for he quotes Didymus in such notes as those 
 on Av. 440, 704, 876, 1121, 1364, 1681, 1704, if we ascribe the 
 statements of fact in these notes to their sources in the most 
 reasonable manner. Symmachus here first gives his own view, 
 then that of Didymus, in 440 those of both Callistratus and 
 Didymus. These notes are phrased differently from certain 
 others in which the hand of the final redactor of the scholia 
 openly appears. In these the views of the two scholars are 
 closely contrasted. Cf. 994: ovtco fiev 1,viJ,fiaxo<;, AtSu/io? Se; 
 1283 : OVTCO 'Zvfj^fx.axo'i. 6 Be AtSu/io?. The explanation of this 
 dual mode of quotation is found in the subscription to the 
 scholia on our play : TrapayeypaTTTat eic tSjv '^Vfifid^ov koX aXKav 
 a-^oXicov. The final redactor had a copy of Symmachus's com- 
 mentary, but not of Didymus's, or he would have named it. 
 He had to depend on Symmachus for Didymus's views.^ 
 Sometimes he quotes Symmachus literally, at other times he 
 rearranges and probably sometimes condenses the material Sym- 
 machus furnishes him. Cf. Schol. Av. 1000, 1273, 1294, 1297 
 (note the parenthentical statement : oprvya Se . . . irpoelprjTaC), 
 1379. In all these the view of Didymus is given first. We must 
 conclude, then, on these general grounds, that Symmachus came 
 after Didymus. His lower limit is determined by Herodian, who 
 cites him.^ He thus falls within the period between Augustus 
 and Marcus Aurelius.^ It is not likely that he prepared a

 * The activity of certain other scholars who are cited or quoted in our scholia 
 also falls within the same limits, Apion, Seleucus, Epaphroditus, Irenaeus, 
 Apollonius Dyscolus. See Introd. 43 ff. It should be observed that Symmachus 
 neither quotes nor is quoted by any of these scholars in our scholia. There is no 
 evidence that the scholia attributed to Seleucus and Epaphroditus are due to 
 quotations made by Symmachus. See Introd. 67.

 second varioram commentary on Aristophanes soon after the 
 publication of Didymus's ; on the other hand, von Wilamowitz 
 observes that the results of Symmachus's compilations may be 
 traced in the rhetorical lexicons of the second century after 
 Christ.i As a probable working hypothesis 100 A.D. may safely 
 be assumed to be the date at which he flourished.^ 
 
 Inspection of the notes attributed to Symmachus by name in 
 the commentary on the Aves reveals the general nature of his 
 His Notes on cxegesis. On 58 he agrees with Didymus in the view 
 the Aves ^^iat eVoTTOt is a proparoxytone word, and on 1297 
 remarks that the form yKeiv is the equivalent of e'w/cet. On 
 1283 he alleges that the a in a-KvrdXiov is long in both Nicophon 
 and Aristophanes. He defines the word KaXda-ipK on 1294 and 
 says it is Egyptian, citing the authority of Cephisodemus. He 
 interprets by paraphrase on 994, 1121, and 1273 ; remarks on 
 1000 that the following verses are intentionally nonsensical, and 
 says on 168 that Aristophanes' s use of the proper name TeXea? 
 has no special significance, although it is possible that the poet 
 is here punning on the name of a bird brought in further on in 
 the play, but he misquotes the lines there, if he is fairly reported 
 in our extant manuscripts. He discusses the text three times, 
 on 303 (citing CalKmaehus), 1297, and 1681. He has a histor- 
 ical note on 363, to which some of the editors would have done 
 well to pay heed. By citation at 704 of the practice lovers had 
 of gratifying the objects of their passion by the gift of fine birds 
 he shows appreciation of the logical connexion of 704 with the 
 following verses, as on 1704 he applies a custom as old as the 
 Homeric poems to the interpretation of our poet's verse, but on 
 1283 he is not certain just what custom the poet has in mind, 
 although he inclines to the correct explanation. On 994 and 
 1364 he refers to the equipment of two of the actors in the play, 
 on the latter enlarging the explanation of Didymus. He has

 Oraecis 131 note. 
 
lii ARISTOPHANES 
 
 numerous prosopographical notes : on 17 he identifies the ' son 
 of Tharrelides ' with Asopodoms ; on 876 notes that the poet 
 adds a new fact about Cleocritus ; on 988 adverts to the ' mad- 
 ness' of the orator Diopeithes; on 1294 supports the general 
 behef that Lycurgus was 'Egyptian'; and on 1379 combats 
 Euphronius's view that Cinesias was lame. On 440, in a matter 
 of literary history, he explains that Aristophanes's ' Ape ' is a 
 reminiscence of Aesop or some other fabulist and then gives the 
 views of Callistratus and Didymus. Like Didymus he frequently 
 summons the poets to the support of his views: thus he cites 
 our poet's Merchantmen and Nicophon's Birth of Aphrodite in 
 settling a quantity in 1283, as he quotes one of Hermippus's 
 tetrameters in establishing the text of 303; he cites the 
 authority of Homer in explaining the application of our poet's 
 reference to a custom in 1704 and quotes Phrynichus's Mono- 
 trope in establishing the historical reference in 363. But such 
 citations and quotations are chiefly prosopographical, as on 17, 
 168, 988, 1294, where he appeals twice to Teleclides, to lines in 
 our own play, to Phrynichus, to Ameipsias, to Pherecrates, and 
 to Cratinus.^ 
 
 These comments are strikingly similar to those of Didymus,^ 
 as we should expect. Didymus was Symmachus's greatest 
 His Relation single source of information, but he had at command 
 to Didymus g^j^(j uged. other commentaries, as also other books 
 treating special subjects relating to comedy. His relation to 
 Didymus and his place among the interpreters of Aristophanes 
 become clearer when we consider the probable reason that led 
 him to write a commentary on our poet. Didymus had covered 
 an incredibly wide range in his 3500 odd books.^ Whatever his 
 'capacity for rapidly assimilating the results of the investigations 
 of previous scholars may have been, his commentary on any

 single author must often have seemed inaccurate and defective 
 to a careful scholar who was making a special study of that 
 author. Symmachus seems to have confined his labors exclu- 
 sively to comedy, and he evidently achieved a large and accurate 
 command of existing sources of information. They were practi- 
 cally those that Didymus had used, but Symmachus made them 
 the subject of detailed and careful study and frequently found 
 occasion to disagree with the conclusions of Didymus. He was 
 a man of independent views. These two scholars are named 
 oftener in the extant schoha than any others, and both oftener 
 in the Aves than in any other play. They naturally bulked 
 large to the final redactor of our scholia. Symmachus and 
 Didymus are coupled in fifteen of the twenty notes on the Aves 
 in which the doctrine of Symmachus is recorded under his name ; 
 their interpretations vary in thirteen of these. We have seen 
 that Symmachus probably flourished about one hundred years 
 after Didymus. If an opinion must be hazarded as to the place 
 in which he did his work, the indications point to 
 
 Symmachus » ■ ■ • 
 
 an Aiexan- Alexandria : he is a ' grammarian ' of the older type 
 and has the Alexandrian manner ; the conditions of 
 jstudy that prevailed in Alexandria in his time would have made 
 it a thoroughly congenial place to a scholar of his bent; its 
 libraries contained the special works needed in the prosecution 
 ■of his particular task. 
 
 The commentaries of Didymus and Symmachus on Aris- 
 tophanes were independent books, unaccompanied by the text

liv ARISTOPHANES 
 
 Great numbers of Greek papyri have been recovered in Egypt, 
 especially at Oxyrhynchus, within the last forty years, and hun- 
 Greek Literary <ireds of these are literary papyri. A few others of 
 Papyri Egyptian provenience were previously known. These 
 
 treasures range in time from the end of the fourth century before 
 Christ, the date of the Persians of Timotheus now in Berhn, the 
 oldest extant Greek manuscript, to the fourth century after 
 Christ, a period of seven hundred years, although most of them 
 were written in the first three centuries of the Christian era. 
 The study of these papyri and of non-literary documents found 
 with them has established within a generation the new science 
 of papyrology, provided with its handbooks and journal and a 
 constantly increasing literature. The dates of these manuscripts 
 can now be determined with tolerable precision. 
 
 The literary papyri that furnish the text of Greek authors 
 may contain critical notes relating solely to the text, diacritical 
 marks of various sorts, and sometimes, but rarely, brief stage 
 directions or abbreviations of the names of the persons of the 
 play, but entries of any other nature on the same sheet (plagula) 
 Marginal '^^1*1^ the column of text are rare. No exegetical

 Meagre found ui the Berlin Timotheus nor, so far as I am 
 
 aware, in any extant papyri of the third or second century before 
 Christ, and perhaps in none of the first century within the Alex- 
 andrian age,i although many extant papyri, some of them of 
 great importance, were written in this period. Moreover, few 
 of the hundreds of Greek literary papyri written in the first 
 three centuries of the Roman period of Greek letters contain any 
 trace of annotation set over against the text, although this is the 
 time when extensive commentaries on the classical authors were 
 rife ; and these few traces are meagre. When scholia do occur in 
 these papyrus manuscripts, they may usurp the place of the text, 
 from lack of adequate space between columns on the relatively

 small sheets, and be written as part of the column normally given 
 Columnar ^o the text. This arrangement is found in a fragment 
 Scholia q£ Epicharmus, not earlier probably than the time of 
 
 Augustus, which contains in a single incomplete column first a 
 collection of brief scholia and then ten trochaic tetrameters,^ and 
 in a fragment of Alcaeus of the first century of the Christian 
 era, on which a scholium of twenty-six words that gives a new 
 fact in the life of the poet has partially displaced the last thirteen 
 Hnes of the text in the second column.^ A similar columnar 
 disposition of notes, but without displacement of the text, is 
 found in an important manuscript of Homer containing the major 
 part of the last two books of the Iliad in thirty-three still extant 
 columns, with two scholia of respectively three and four lines, 
 bvit no longer decipherable, over two of the columns, and a single 
 mutilated brief note in the margin.^ The same columnar arrange- 
 ment occurs also later in a fragment of Xenophon's Hellenica of 
 the second century, in three columns, on which the only two 
 notes that occur stand respectively at the beginning of the first 
 and second columns, the scribe availing himself of the unusually 
 broad space at the top of the sheet,^ and in a fragment of 
 Menander's Flatterer of the same century, in three columns 
 containing one hundred and one verses, where a scholium of five 
 lines on Astyanax the paneratiast is written under the third 
 column. Two other notes occur in the right margin, but one 
 is now illegible, the other contains six words.^ 
 
 The combination of columnar and marginal notes is found also 
 in two papyri of the first century of the Christian era, but in

 these the marginal notes preponderate. The first contains a 
 part of the third book of the Odyssey with a few brief marginal 
 scholia and two of greater length written at the top of the third 
 and fourth columns.^ The second papyrus is the well known 
 Aicman's ^^^^^ fragment of a partheneum of Alcman, found by 
 partheneum Mariette in Egypt in 1855, the earliest extant speci- 
 men of Greek strophic choral composition.^ It contains one 
 hundred and one cola in three columns with schoha on eighteen 
 cola.3 The most of these notes are relatively brief, and generally 
 they stand on the right margin, but here again the top and 
 bottom of columns have been utilized for the longer notes (one 
 a paraphrase of six lines) and one of the longer notes is carried 
 over and ends interlinearly. This papyrus, in which the text is 
 more fully annotated than that of any of the manuscripts previ- 
 ously cited, has been adduced as proof that ' annotated editions ' 
 came in with Didymus, but it is obvious that it is in no way 
 comparable, for example, with the vellum book which was the 
 archetype of our extant manuscripts of Aristophanes, with its 
 great corpus of scholia, nor, as will presently appear, is the 
 aggregate amount of the notes in this papyrus at all comparable 
 relatively with the bulk of such commentaries (yir-oiMvrjuaTa) as 
 we now know that Didymus wrote. 
 
 The same statements hold good of another literary papyrus of 
 the early part of the second century, the important Oxyrhynchus 
 manuscript that contains fragments of the Paeans of Pindar, 
 Oxyrhynchus although this is more fully annotated than the Alcman 
 Pindar papyrus and displays the unusual feature of a special 
 
 provision for notes.* The plagulae are nearly square (18 by

 intended for annotation vacant between the columns of text. 
 Notwithstanding this special provision, the aggregate amount of 
 ■commentary is relatively not at all comparable in bulk with the 
 extant body of scholia, for example, on Pindar's Epinician Odes. 
 It would have been impossible to inscribe these scholia on the 
 margins of a manuscript of this size. 
 
 Each of the remaining annotated papyri of the second century 
 
 contains, as in general, only a few brief marginal notes. These 
 
 are fragments of the Meliambi of Cercidas ^ ; of

 brief annotation is mainly textual ^ ; and of two poems 
 of Corinna, on which the infrequent ' scholia ' consist each of a 
 word or two, Attic equivalents of Boeotian forms.^ We have 
 also a comic fragment of the third century, with one columnar 
 and four marginal notes on twenty-six verses in two columns.^ 
 This papyrus, like the Oxyrhynchus Pindar, provided space for 
 notes between columns, but here also this was only partially 
 used. An annotated fragment also of a lost tragedy of the late 
 third century has been recovered, but this is too small to justify 
 inferences,^ and twenty verses of Aristophanes's Equites (37-46 
 and 86-95) with two brief marginal notes and a longer historical 
 note under the second column.® This fragment consists of three 
 pieces, which were originally part of a leaf of a papyrus book, a

 note on the first poem ; on the second fifteen notes, generally 
 very brief and all in the right or left margin except one at the 
 top of the second page of the fourth folio. 
 
 Extant remains, then, down to the fourth century after Christ, 
 demonstrate that few papyrus manuscripts of Greek authors 
 were annotated in the manner of the early parclnnent and later 
 paper manuscripts with which we are familiar, and that the 
 scholia in these papyri were relatively brief and meagre. Yet it 
 is credibly reported that Aristarchus in the second century before 
 Christ wrote eight hundred ' Commentaries ' ; and, to speak of a 
 single author, there is ample evidence that the commentaries of 
 Didymus and of Symmachus on Aristophanes were big books. 
 Papyj^g How were such commentaries preserved ? The proof 
 Commentaries ^^lat they Were Separate works, unprovided with the 
 text of the author but furnished with lemmata, is indubitable: 
 remains are extant of papyri written in the first century before 
 Christ and in each of the first four centuries of the Christian 
 era which contain commentaries of this sort, on Homer pre- 
 eminently, but also on Herodotus, Thucydides, Aristophanes, 
 Plato, Demosthenes, Aristotle, and Callimachus. 
 
 The first of these in order of time is an anonymous commen- 
 tary on the second book of the Iliad, i This manuscript is of the 
 Elaborate ^^^^ ccutury before Christ, and its present remains 
 Commentaries consist of three large sheets C41 bv 23.2 cm.") which

 contam scholia on verses 751-827. Each note is 
 introduced by a lemma that is generally an entire verse but 
 sometimes two and in one instance four. There are in all one 
 hundred and twenty-one solid lines in the commentary, and since 
 the written columns are unusually wide (16 cm.) the ratio in 
 bulk of the comment to the seventy-seven verses covered by it 
 is about five to two; that is, the commentary, excluding the

 lemmata, would be two and one half times as large as the text 
 it covers if both were written in solid lines. A commentary on 
 this scale on the whole of the second book of the Iliad would 
 require a roll eight metres m length (about twenty-six feet). 
 The scope of the annotation is comprehensive. A significant 
 feature is its frequent use and explanation of the signa employed 
 by Aristarchus. The date of the manuscript precludes the 
 ascription of the commentary either to Didymus or to Aristonicus. 
 It is to be attributed, then, to some earlier ' Aristarchean.' The 
 remains of a Homeric commentary that was much more elaborate 
 even than this are found in a papyrus of the latter part of the 
 same century.^ This consists of three columns of notes on 
 Iliad vii 75-83 (the sheets measuring 24.3 x 17.1 cm.), with 
 thirty-three lines in each column. In this manuscript the lem- 
 mata, marked by projection of the lines, are short but precise 
 phrases of two or three words. The ratio of lines of comment 
 to verses is here eleven to one. A commentary on this scale 
 would be enormous. Another extensive Homeric commentary 
 is indicated by a fragment of the first century after Christ in 
 two mutilated columns that contain notes on Iliad iv 306-307.^ 
 The editor. Dr. Hunt, regards it as not improbable that the 
 author may have been Aristonicus or Didymus. Remains of 
 still another Homeric commentary in which the bulk of the 
 notes far exceeds that of the text (the comment averages over 
 three lines to the verse) are found in a papyrus of the second 
 century in seventeen columns containing notes on the twenty- 
 first book of the Iliad.^ Beginning with the third column the 
 notes, which are introduced by lemmata of varying length, are 
 practically continuous on verses 111-363. There have been 
 preserved also part of a mythological commentary on the first 
 book of the Iliad* and a fragment of a commentary on the

 glossographical, but occasionally they include brief expositions

 The most considerable of these Homeric papyri, which are all 
 fragmentary, consists of twenty columns of a commentary on th&

 commentary on verses 1-21, and to the fifth, the remnant now

 on other Greek authors also have been recovered in Egypt.

 because of their extent and state of preservation, are two papyri 
 of the first half of the second century after Christ, now in Berlin. 
 The first is a commentary, which the subscription certifies was 
 Didymns on composed by Didymus, on the third and fourth Ora- 
 Demosthenes ^^^^g ^f Demosthenes against Philip, on the reply to 
 Philip's Letter (xi), and on the Eegulation of the State (xiii).i 
 Little is left of the commentary on the third Philippic, that on 
 the fourth occupies nine columns, that on the reply to the Letter 
 three, and that on the Regulation of the State about two ; but the 
 first five columns are mutilated. The columns are tall and nar- 
 row, and average seventy lines in length. The bulk of the com- 
 mentary about equals that of the text of the orator ; the present 
 book, however, is not a verbatim copy of the original work as it 
 came from the hands of Didymus, but consists of selections from 
 it.^ The lemmata are very full and are indicated by ecthesis. 
 The second papyrus contains an elaborate anonymous

 Development tarics ou the ' classical authors was lelt early m 
 Alexandria and its satisfaction was a task congenial 
 to Alexandrian scholars.® They wrote books in elucidation of 
 Greek authors, some of portentous dimensions, and their inves- 
 tigations gradually became more and more specialized. The 
 pupils of the great scholars followed in the footsteps of their 
 masters. At the end of the Alexandrian period, when Didymus 
 appears, there must have been thousands of commentaries in the 
 Alexandrian libraries. These were inconvenient to use, since 
 the commentary and the text were separate rolls ; the form of 
 each, moreover, increased the difficulty of reference. This was 
 met in part by the invariable use in the commentaries of lemmata, 
 which were all precise and generally full. Such commentaries 
 were sufficient for learned men who knew their classical authors, 
 but the practical advantage of utilizmg the intercolumnar spaces

 for brief notes did not escape attention. It was extremely con- 
 venient to have the note over against the line, generally at the 
 right. A lemma was not then needed, and lemmata do not in 
 fact occur in the remains of papyri thus briefly annotated. But 
 there was not room for long notes; the space, indeed, between 
 columns of the text of prose authors, which was written in solid 
 lines, was so narrow as practically to preclude notes. No prose 
 author, so far as I am aware, has intercolumnar exegetical com- 
 ment, in the extant remains. It is only the poets that are thus 
 favored, whose text was written in verses and short cola probably 
 from the time of Aristophanes of Byzantium.^ Textual notes in 
 particular could be entered with advantage on the vacant spaces,^ 
 and the text of the poets demanded such annotation more than 
 that of the writers of prose. The next step was the addition of 
 brief exegetical notes, as in some extant papyri.^ A determined 
 effort to provide larger space for annotation than ordinary is 
 manifest in two extant papyri,^ but the invention did not take. 
 Marginal annotation probably found favor with ' professors.' It 
 was an extremely convenient form for their notes, which were 
 mere memoranda of points they wished to discuss and, as they 
 were for personal use, could be written with many abbreviations.^

 lingered on, but there are few traces of it after this time and it is 
 not without significance that the fourth century commentary on 
 Callimachus's Hymn to Artemis, of which remains are extant,^ 
 had the form of the codex, although its material was papyrus. 
 In course of time the papyrus roll was displaced by the parch- 
 a.„ T> .„ ment book, and the reasons for the change, which was 
 ment Codex gradual, are not far to seek. Papyrus was shorthved 
 in comparison with parchment. The rolls were brittle stuff and 
 rapidly deteriorated with handling, which necessitated constant 
 unrolling. The surface and edges of the fibrous paper were 
 therefore prepared and protected by artificial means with special 
 care; and, as the roll was ruiaed by moisture and was the pecuhar 
 prey of the bookworm, it was cased. Rolls in use might last a 
 century, rarely two.^ Parchment manuscripts on the contrary 
 were durable, and since they were in book form their more stable 
 material was less easily impaired by handliag. So the parchment 
 codex in time superseded the papyrus roll, even for literary use ; 
 but although parchment had long been known the natural con- 
 servatism of a venerable and almost universal practice delayed 
 its general adoption as material for writing. Its supremacy over 
 papyrus paper for literary purposes was not established till the 
 fourth century after Christ.^ 
 
 These converging facts perhaps indicate the time and the 
 occasion of the final ancient redaction of the Aristophanic scholia. 
 Final Redac- I* ^^ probably in the fourth or fifth century of the 
 Aristophanic Christian era, and in Constantinople, that some scholar 
 Scholia ^}^Q knew and valued his Aristophanes and feared 
 
 that the plays of the poet and the indispensable commentary 
 that had gradually gathered about them might be lost, through 
 the decay and destruction of the papyrus copies that contained 
 them, determiaed to transcribe on parchment the text of the 
 plays still extant and to place round it on the margins of his 
 book so much of the commentary as was still to be had. This

 was presumably the first parchment codex of Aristophanes, a big 
 book that preserved in a single volume of convenient form the 
 extant text and commentary, the source of all extant manuscripts 
 of Aristophanes written in the tenth and following centuries. 
 That a scholar animated by this spirit and competent for this 
 task should have been living and working in Constantinople at 
 this time is a reasonable supposition. When Constantine in 
 330 A.D. established Constantinople on the foundations of ancient 
 Constant! Byzantium, learned men thronged to the new capital

 city became a new centre of Greek learning, which was 
 diligently promoted here and elsewhere. The Emperor Julian 
 founded a secular library in Constantinople ^ and Theodosius II 
 established its university. Five Greek ' sophists,' renowned for 
 their eloquence, and ten Greek ' grammarians ' were members of 
 its staff.^ Aristophanes was one of the authors studied

 Aristophanes in illustration without naming either the author or 
 the play and apparently from memory, since he misquotes it.* 
 In another oration he appropriates a famous simile of Aris-

 ' Comedy '.i All this implies general familiarity with our poet. 
 The Emperor Julian, the king of sophists and the 
 ■'" '*° sophist among kings, begins his seventh oration with 
 
 a phrase consciously reminiscent of Eupohs and a little farther 
 on refers to Heracles and Dionysus as familiar figures on the 
 comic stage, as they are in Aristophanes, and in his second 
 oration he happily applies to Constantius a phrase that Dionysus 
 uses in the Frogs (84) of Agathon. Elsewhere, lamenting the 
 departure of Salustius, he exclaims with Dicaeopolis SdKvofj,ai re 
 Kal ' SeSrijuai rfjv ifiavTov icapSiav,' as in a letter to Proaeresius 
 he declares that his friend's eloquence rivals that of Pericles — 
 except in the particular of 'confounding Hellas' (Ach. 531). 
 He wi-ites to Themistius also and quotes from the Wasps (1431), 
 as, in his Symposium, Claudius is welcomed by Silenus with the 
 famous song in honor of Demus in the Knights (1111 ff.). In 
 the twelfth letter he quotes from the Plutus (268), and in the 
 twenty-fourth from a lost play of our poet (frag. 587 Kock).^ 
 Orion the 'grammarian,' furthermore, included ex- 
 tracts from the Frogs and Birds in his Anthology,^ 
 and he was making it for a lady at that, the Empress Eudocia, 
 who honored him by attending his lectures in Constantinople. 
 These various allusions and quotations signify that Aristophanes 
 was a famihar name in educated circles there at this time, which 
 was a period of great academic activity. Aristophanes was 
 perhaps the poet then most affected after Homer, Hesiod, and 
 Euripides. The words ' sophist ' and ' grammarian ' have mis- 
 leading modern connotations, but they were honorable terms 
 then, rhetor and philologist. The modern estimate of the value 
 of the instruction these men gave may be low, but at least they

 Constantinopolitans also quote Aristophanes. Both Libanius, who taught at one 
 time in Constantinople, and Synesius, who came thither as ambassador, refer to 
 him repeatedly. Libanius begins one of his letters (Epist. 1243) with the 
 pleasantry: Kex'^van^ii TrpoaSoKUvTei oi rhv Ai<rxi\ov dXXA ypdii/MTa t4 a-i.

 knew their classical authors well. In view of all the facts 
 adduced, it seems not unlikely — direct proof is lacking — that 
 it was in Constantinople and at this time that some lover of 
 Aristophanes gave the plays of our poet and the commentary on 
 them the durable form that has preserved them to posterity. 
 
 The fear of the anonymous editor of this first parchment codex 
 of Aristophanes that the commentary might be lost was well 
 TheAnony- founded. He knew that some four hundred years 
 sourceTof"'^ earlier Didymus had composed a commentary on the 
 Scholia comedies, but he was unable to procure a copy of it. 
 
 This is manifest from the subscriptions to the scholia on the 
 Aves, Nubes, and Pax, in which he records his sources.^ In 
 the subscription to the scholia on the Aves, for example, of 
 which the plain meaning is that the editor had drawn the com- 
 mentary inscribed on the margins of his book from the scholia 
 symmachus "f Symmachus and 'others,' he names only Symma- 
 and ' others • chyg, j^; jg certain that if he had possessed a copy 
 of the commentary of the older and better known scholar he 
 would have named him also. It follows that he did not possess 
 the books, accessible in the main to Didymus and Symmachus, 
 of the still older and still more distinguished commentators, 
 Euphronius, Aristophanes of Byzantium (if indeed he wrote a 
 commentary), Callimachus, Aristarchus, and Crates, nor of any 
 of the minor scholars of the Alexandrian period, who although 
 less prominent would have loomed large to him. As to the 
 scholars named in our scholia who followed Didymus in the first 
 century, Apion, Seleucus, and Epaphroditus,^ it is quite as prob- 
 able that the notes which are here ascribed to them were drawn 
 by the anonymous editor directly from their works as that 
 Symmachus furnished the quotations, for these three scholars 
 were cosmopolitan and it is altogether likely that their books 
 got to Constantinople in due course at some time before the 
 making of the parchment variorum edition. In particular, if 
 these notes were due to Symmachus we should expect him to be

 named in some of them, as he and Didymus are both generally- 
 named in notes originally abstracted by Symmachus from Didy- 
 mus ; but he is not. The scholars of the second century to whom 
 notes are ascribed in our scholia are Irenaeus ^ ; the distinguished 
 grammarians ApoUonius Dyscolus and his son Herodian ^ ; Tele- 
 phus of Pergamum, a prolific writer on many subjects, of whose 
 works Suidas gives a long list 3; Phrynichus, the atticist*; 
 Palamedes, one of Athenaeus's deipnosophists ^ ; and Athenaeus 
 himself.8 The last two carry over into the third century. 
 Finally we encounter Sallustius '^ and Phaeinus, both probably of 
 the fourth century. Sallustius — the name is Latin — cannot 
 be identified with certainty.^ Phaeinus has come into 
 undue prominence because he is named in the sub- 
 scriptions to the Nubes and Pax. The extreme view has even 
 been hazarded that he was the anonymous compiler of the parch- 
 ment variorum edition of the schoha. Two considerations tell 
 against this view, first the despicable quality of the few notes on 
 a single play to which his name is attached,® and secondly the 
 fact that these Greek commentators never refer to themselves 
 formally by name in their notes. But this is the mode of refer- 
 ence to the five notes attributed to Phaeinus in our scholia, and it 
 is invariably the mode if a commentator is referring to somebody 
 else. In the rare cases in which a commentator assumes respon- 
 sibility for a statement, he either speaks in the first person

 his agency to be inferred (^irpoeiprjTai, eiprjTat irporepov, BeBijXcoTai,

 shallow local celebrity of the day who unduly impressed his con-

 plays, written in affectation of the earlier, independent manner.

 They were the scholars posterior in time to Didymus who are 
 named in our scholia from Apion down to Phaeinus, and no 
 doubt others also within this long period who do not happen to 
 be named at all.^ The editor's chief source undoubtedly is 
 Symmachus ; to him he is indebted for far the larger part of the 
 Alexandrian learning in which the scholia on the Aves at least 
 abound, but not necessarily for all of it, for many of the scholars 
 of the earlier years of the Christian era who were laid under 
 contribution had access to the same sources as Symmachus and 
 Didymus. Even with so much determined, however, it is not now 
 possible to assign any considerable number of the

 that was shared by the anonymous editor. This body 
 of notes consists of selected comments found in various manu- 
 scripts, but approximately six hundred years intervene between 
 the parchment book and the oldest extant manuscripts, which 
 are copies of copies now lost. The commentary has suffered 
 changes in transmission, but even if we possessed a verbatim copy 
 of the original parchment book, we should still be uninformed 
 as to the sources of most of the notes. These sources were not 
 named in it, except for special reasons ; if they were indicated

 attempted to prove that Symmachus was the sole source of the old scholia 
 (Introd. 77) on Aristophanes. Dindorf immediately stated strong objections to 
 this view. See his Oxford edition of Aristophanes IV iii (1838) 387 ff. 
 Schneider's monograph has provoked much discussion.

 at all, and this was comparatively rare, the indications, as in the 
 extant scholia, consisted merely of general expressions such as 
 evioi, Ttve'?, ol fiev, oi hi, oi fiev 'ir\eiov<;, iv rot? TrXetcrTot?, aWto?, 
 ol vTTOixVTjiiaTiaTal, oi vTro/MVij/MaTia-avTe';, iv rot? inr ofiv^fiaai, iv

 This phraseology can be traced, as the method employed in 
 general in Greek commentaries, through Didymus back to Aris- 
 tarchus.2 It was the fashion of the time not to make specific 
 acknowledgment. The Greeks regarded even literary plagiarism 
 as a venial offense, and to crib a commentary was apparently a 
 virtuous act. The learned clept regarded his predecessors as 
 fair prey and himself as the benefactor of posterity.^ 
 
 To what extent, if at all, did the editor of the parchment 
 codex make original contributions to the scholia ? He decided 
 Nature of the "^^^^ ^^ retain and what to reject, and he allowed 
 Redaction himself, as the manner in which he deals with the 
 commentary of Symmachus proves, considerable freedom in stat- 
 ing and arranging his collections. He did this intelligently, but 
 there is no clear evidence that he did more. The personal note 
 (etTroi', evpov, ovx rjjovfJLai, and the like) does not prove that he 
 contributed views of his own, for any investigator or commenta- 
 tor might strike this note and have his views quoted.^ He may 
 have contributed paraphrases, but this method of interpretation

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTAEY Ixxi 
 
 appears as early as Aristarchus,i and he may also have added 
 rhetorical notes, after the abounding fashion of his time. But 
 whatever contributions he made are now overwhelmed beyond 
 identification in the welter of anonymous scholia. It is in gen- 
 eral extremely hazardous to attempt to ascribe these unnamed 
 notes to this or that scholar on purely subjective grounds. 
 
 The parchment codex of Aristophanes of which I have been 
 endeavoring to trace the origin was a big book and contained at 
 Form and least the eleven plays now found in our oldest com- 
 the Parch- plete manuscript. The text was written in cola and 
 ment Codex yerses in the manner of Heliodorus, whose metrical 
 commentary on the comedies was incorporated with the scholia.^ 
 The scholia were more abundant than in any manuscript now 
 extant. One proof of this is found in the lexicon of Suidas, 
 which contains pertinent matter not found among the notes in 
 any of our manuscripts of Aristophanes ; another is the present 
 state of the Heliodorean metrical scholia. The nearly complete 
 Heliodorean commentary on the Pax is in marked contrast with 
 the fragmentary remnants of notes still preserved on the Nubes 
 and Vespae, and six plays lack this metrical commentary alto- 
 gether. Existing manuscripts warrant the conclusion that the 
 schoha in the parchment codex were arranged round the text on 
 all four margins, if necessary, the exterior margin furnishing the 
 largest space, and that short notes were often intramarginal and 
 glosses and textual variants generally interlinear. Since lemmata 
 were prefixed to the scholia in the commentary of Symmachus, 
 probably they generally occurred in this book, but they may have 
 been curtailed. Several notes might be combined under one 
 lemma, as sometimes happens in the papyrus commentaries. 
 If the lemma was omitted altogether, in order to economize 
 space, the note, unless it immediately followed the colon or verse 
 to which it related, was connected with its proper text by the 
 double use of the same signum. Different explanations of the

 same verse, phrase, or word might be given, or even different

 in Constantinople that extended from the middle of the seventh 
 to the middle of the ninth century. AVitli the revival of Byzan-

 1 Errors common to the extant manuscripts establish the fact that these are 
 all derived from a single source, and this view is now accepted by scholars, 
 however they differ in opinion as to the time when the archetype was written 
 and the relations that the extant manuscripts sustain to It and to one another. 
 See in particular Gary's Manuscript Tradition of the Achamenses, Harvard 
 Studies in Classical Philology XVIII (1907) 157 ff., and Zacher's Rand- 
 schriflen und Classen 503 ff., which treats exclusively of the scholia. For some 
 earlier investigations and stemmata, see R. Schnee, De Aristophanis codicibus 
 capita duo (1876) and De Aristophanis manuscriptis quibus Sanae et Aves tradun- 
 iur (1886) ; G. Bunger, De Aristophanis Equitum Lysistratae Thesmophoriazusa- 
 rum apud Suidam reliquiis (1878); C. Kiihne, De codicibus qui Aristophanis 
 Ecclesiazusas et Lysistratam exhibent (1886). Zacher (736 ff.) is inclined to assign 
 the variorum edition that was the common archetype of the extant manuscripts 
 and of the lost manuscript from which Suidas made his excerpts to about the 
 Ijeginning of the tenth century. This would then be the fourth variorum edition 
 of our poet, if the conclusions which have been reached in this Introduction are 
 sound. The evidence on which Zacher rests his opinion is purely palaeographi- 
 cal, and it is inconsiderable. He himself warns his readers against overesti- 
 mating the value of such proof as the scholia may be supposed to furnish, since 
 the hand in which scholia are written often differs greatly from that of the text. 
 See also Gary (192 f .), who finds in the text of the Acharnians three unequivocal 
 and two other less certain cases of errors common to all our manuscripts which 
 he thinks presuppose a minuscule archetype. 
 
THE OLD GEEEK COMMENTARY Ixxiii 
 
 was now mainly confined to the Plutus, Nubes, and Ranae.i 
 The oldest complete manuscript of Aristophanes still extant, the 
 ■Codex Ravennas, was written at the end of the following century, 
 a century made memorable by the encyclopedic labors of Con- 
 stantine Porphyrogenitus,^ or at the beginning of the eleventh. 
 
 The Codex Ravennas is approximately six hundred years 
 younger than the variorum edition of the fourth or fifth century. 
 The conclusion that there must have been such an edition and 
 that it was the archetype of the Ravennas and all later manu- 
 scripts is established for the scholia by practical identity of the 
 contents of the manuscripts, such differences as occur resulting 
 from diversity in the mode of selecting and arranging the scholia 
 and in some cases from rewriting them, and for the text by 
 agreement of all the manuscripts in errors that are of such 
 number and character as to establish the fact of a common source. 
 
 This conclusion is now negatively confirmed bv re- 
 ITegative . . 
 
 Testimony to ceutly published new evidence which puts the manu- 
 scripts in a class by themselves — papyrus and early 
 parchment fragments of extant plays and of scholia on them. 
 These fragments are not numerous, some of them are slight, 
 and nearly all are badly mutilated, but they furnish sufficient 
 evidence to justify conclusions. The oldest of these is a papyrus 
 fragment of the third century, found at Oxyrhynchus, which

 Acharnians in these manuscripts show close relation with one 
 another, the same intimate connexion that proves at a glance, 
 for example, that the old scholia on the Aves printed in this 
 book are derived from a common source. Quite apart from 
 considerations of age, material, and provenience, it is impossible 
 to suppose that the scholia of the papyrus fragment just men- 
 tioned were derived from the same specific source as those in 
 our later manuscripts ; for they frequently differ in the matter 
 chosen for comment, and when the topic is the same the phrase- 
 ology is strikingly varied,^ whereas there is practically verbal 
 identity among the manuscripts themselves. The origin of these 
 scholia cannot now be determined, but although generally brief 
 they show traces of Alexandrian learning : the manuscript was 
 not a schoolbook. 
 
 We have evidence also in regard to the text of the Acharnians 
 in fragments now in Berlin of a papyrus codex of the fifth cen- 
 Evidencefor ^ury or possibly a later date, found at Hermopolis.^ 
 the Text Approximately one hundred and thirty verses are 
 preserved, but the folios are sorely damaged ; not a line is intact. 
 There are no scholia. Ignoriog, as before, considerations of age, 
 material, and provenience, the opinion that the text of these 
 verses could not have been copied from the archetype of our 
 manuscripts but must have been derived from an independent 
 source is strongly supported by internal evidence. The papyrus 
 has but one error common to all the extant manuscripts ^ ; it has 
 good readings that are not found in any of our manuscripts*; 
 
 1 The editors, Grenf ell and Hunt, whose remarks on the fragment should he 
 consulted, state that these " scholia stand in no close relation to the extant 
 scholia."

 it contains errors not found in any extant manuscript, of which 
 some certainly are attributable to its source ^ ; some of its agree- 
 ments in error with one or more of our manuscripts are of such 
 a nature that the errors may well have been made independently.^ 
 But some apparently independent errors that are found in our 
 manuscripts, it may here be remarked, are early and find their 
 explanation in the history of the poet's text. This is good, as 
 texts go, and well preserved, although one might conclude from 
 the unimaginably ardent desire of many scholars in the last cen- 
 tury to improve it by ' emendation ' that it must be vile. Its tra- 
 ditions, nevertheless, at times go wrong and manifest violations 
 of the poet's usage and of metrical law occur. Most errors that 
 are substantial — not those due to change of pronunciation and 
 other trivial causes — are probably pre-Alexandrian. 
 
 Substantial _ r j r 
 
 Errors in tiie Aristophanes was earnestly studied by the great Alex- 
 Aristophanes andrians as the perfect exemplar of Attic speech, and 
 ^ ^ they rid his text of many errors due to earlier scribes, 
 
 actors, and readers.^ An accepted text was thus secured, and it 
 is probable that the text of our archetype was not greatly 
 
 one good reading with E alone, ESTA[I in 792, where the other manuscripts 
 have iari. In 780 it has KOIKOIKOI]KOIKOI[KO]IKOIK[OI. . . . The word 
 Kot occurred here at least eight times in the papyrus, and this fact, if the read- 
 ing is accepted, shatters the assumption of the editors that the final i of koJ is 
 always long. Cf. 800 ff.

 Other early papyrus and some early parchment fragments of

 other Early ^^^ Acharnians from Oxyrhynchus and Hermopohs.

 recovered on a leaf of a papyrus book of the fourth or fifth

 Thirty-seven mutilated verses also of the Nubes are found on a 
 leaf of a parchment book (which the editor, Reitzenstein, thinks 
 cannot have been written before the fifth century nor later than 
 the seventh) with five brief marginal scholia of which one is now 
 illegible.^ The Musee du Louvre possesses a fragment of a leaf 
 of a parchment book of the sixth century containing verses of 
 the Aves (1057-85, 1101-27), with notes in a fine hand that are 
 now mainly illegible.^ One important note, however, has been 
 deciphered.^ Connexion with our archetype cannot be claimed 
 for the scholia either in the Oxyrhynchus fragment or in any of 
 the three just cited. In marked contrast with these are the 
 Palimpsest notes in a palimpsest parchment fragment of the tenth 
 ?ent?'°* "* century, containing Av. 1393-1453 with scholia, pre- 
 century fixed to a paper manuscript of Aehus Aristides of the 
 fifteenth century now in the Biblioteca Laurenziana in Florence 
 (LX 9).^ These notes are verbally identical with the corre- 
 sponding notes in one or the other of our extant manuscripts, 
 with only such variations as all these manuscripts display. 
 Three remaining early fragments contain the text. One is a

 source of the old scholia for the seven comedies it contains, and I 
 have therefore made a literal transcript of the commentary on the 
 Aves in this manuscript the basis of this book.i The body of 
 scholia in the Codex Ravennas is in comparison 
 Ravennas (R) meagre. Their editor, who was probably not one of 
 the scribes of the extant manuscript but the editor of the 
 book from which it was finally copied, simply excerpted passages 
 from his original, often only parts of notes. He followed, in 
 doing this, no discoverable principle of selection; his choice 
 seems to have been fortuitous. The information conveyed in 
 these notes is often incomplete and the language in which it is 
 expressed is sometimes incoherent. The general process, more- 
 over, inevitably necessitated a certain amount of rewriting.^ 
 This manuscript, therefore, must be used with due caution in re- 
 constituting the text of the old scholia, an undertaking that at 
 the present time and with existing means is in itself sufficiently 
 difficult. Suidas is a source of first-rate importance, a 
 fact that has long been recognized.^ Internal evidence 
 
 was an opinionated person. Cf. for R the Transcript of Sohol. Av. 42^, 106, 
 1102, 1532^ 1702^ 2122, 413^ 419^ 495^ 532, 571, 599, 7722, 116I2, 1290, 1420, 1444,

 1 1 have even gone so far, in order that all possible items of information 
 about the contents of the Codex Venetus might be assembled, as to report the 
 readings of the copy (G) of this manuscript that was made for Cardinal 
 Bessarion by one of his table-companions in the fifteenth century (Introd. 87f .) 
 
 2 The evidence establishing these statements furnished by the scholia in E 
 on the Aves will be found in the Collation of Manuscripts printed in this book 
 just under the Transcript of the scholia in V. The notes in R are in so con- 
 fused a state that Rutherford, in the first two volumes of his Scholia Aris- 
 tophanica, was led in restoring them to adopt a fantastic theory of their original 
 form, which he subsequently abandoned. Romer in his Studien zu Aristophanes 
 und den alien Erkldrem desselben, I. Teil (1902), institutes a comparison of the 
 scholia in V and R at length and produces in full the evidence furnished by the 
 notes on the Vespae.

THE OLD GREEK COMMENTARY Ixxix 
 
 proves that he used an annotated manuscript of our poet which 
 contained the eleven plays known to us, and that its commen- 
 tary contained matter not found in extant manuscripts. I have 
 therefore cited him constantly in my critical notes and often re- 
 ported him in the collation of manuscripts, and have not hesi- 
 tated on occasion to enlarge the commentary on the Aves by 
 notes found only in his Lexicon. I may here add that I have 
 given diligent attention also to the other Greek lexicographers 
 and cannot but hope that the use here made of the testimonia 
 of these and other ancient authorities in reconstituting the text 
 of the scholia will be regarded as adequate and judicious. 
 
 Tampering with the traditional text of the Aristophanic 
 scholia does not begin until the twelfth century. There had 
 been no deliberate attempt apparently before this 
 tion : time to ' improve ' them, but Tzetzes undertook the 
 
 task of rewriting and enlarging them with querulous 
 confidence. The earliest report of his handiwork is found in a 
 Milan manuscript of the thirteenth century superscribed with his 
 name, which contains besides other documents the Plutus, Nubes, 
 and Ranae with abundant schoha.^ These were the comedies 
 which he and his successors chiefly affected, but they commented 
 also on other plays, and a Codex Urbinas now in the Vatican 
 collection exhibits Tzetzes's handling of the old schoha on the 
 Aves.2 Two commentators on our poet appear early ia the 
 fourteenth century who are noteworthy both on then- own ac- 
 count and because they were laid under contribution by Musurus 
 when he compiled the commentary of the first printed edition of 
 Aristophanes : Thomas Magister and Demetrius Tri- 
 MtaJSerand cluiius. The scholars of the group to which they 
 Tricunius belong have been aptly characterized as precursors of 
 the renaissance rather than as the last representatives of a van- 
 ishing Byzantine tradition. They were the first humanists.

 clinius, who appropriated them and combined them with extracts 
 from the old scholia and his own contributions. Triclinius's 
 exegesis of Aristophanes still remains to be studied, but his 
 metrical notes stand apart. He was the best known but not the 
 only metrician of his time.^

 simple as it might seem.i Beginning with the Princeps the printed 
 commentary on the three Byzantine plays reeks of it, and there 
 is hardly an annotated manuscript, dating in the fourteenth, fif- 
 teenth, or sixteenth century, of any of the other five comedies 
 which were most widely read that is uncontaminated. Many 
 men were roused to independent effort in the revival ; there were 
 ambitious schoolmasters both before and after Thomas Magister. 
 Even the commentary on the Aves, which was off the beaten 
 track of general study in the schools, did not escape. Fifteen 
 Mss. of the manuscripts are extant which contain the text of the 
 Aves Aves complete or nearly so.^ Five of these lack com- 
 
 mentary on this play.^ Three important annotated manuscripts of 
 the fourteenth century contain chiefly old scholia, one in Florence, 
 another in Modena, and the third in Milan. I have reported all 
 Laurentianus three for the old scholia in the Collation given below.

 are grateful to Zacher, who is to be credited with the first systematic attempt 
 (in his Handschriften und Classen 566-649) to solve the problem. What is needed 
 is properly edited transcripts of the commentaries of Tzetzes and his successors, 
 and whoever will furnish them — it is a task for young and hardy men — will 
 render valuable service to classical scholarship.

 was written by three hands. The first scribe (designated as T), 
 who was also, as I beheve, the scribe of the text of the play, 
 wrote scholia, which with few exceptions are in proper numeri- 
 cal verse-order, on the upper, outer, and (when needed) lower 
 margins. These are exclusively old scholia, and it is from this 
 collection that the few old scholia are rescued which are found 
 in r but not in V or R.^ This hand seems not to have contrib- 
 uted glosses, and only a few interlinear textual variants. A sec- 
 ond hand (F^), using another manuscript than that employed 
 by r, added scholia and a multitude of glosses, and occasionally 
 altered the entries of T, both text and notes. Still a third hand 
 appears (F^), that of the ' Corrector ' who revised the whole book 
 except the Ecclesiazusae, which was not revised at all. This 
 scribe added scholia and glosses and revised the work of both 
 liis predecessors.

 the Codex Estensis^ in Modena, which was not known to Dindorf 
 Estensis ^^^ ^^ ^^^ fuUy reported for the scholia on the Aves

 The marginal notes are here exclusively old schoha and are a 
 valuable aid in reconstituting the text of the commentary. A 
 Ambrosianus single hand appears also in the codex in Milan.^ The 
 L 39 Sup. (M) commentary on the Aves in this book is peculiar. 
 Parts of it have been rewritten, with intention but not in a 
 polemical spirit. This feature differentiates its scholia from the 
 notes found in V, F, and E, and essentially in R, and is instruc- 
 tive in the study of the history of the text of the commentary 
 on Aristophanes. The basis of these notes is exclusively old 
 scholia; in this particular the manuscript is as pure as the 
 Estensis. The editor of its immediate archetype, moreover, was 
 an intelhgent man and free from conceit, as is shown by the 
 quality of his work here and in the independent notes which he 
 ventured on the Nubes.^ He wished to avail himself of the

 information contained in the early commentary, but for reasons 
 of his own did not hesitate to change the form of expression 
 of his original. Who this anonymous scholar was it is impos- 
 sible to say. The manuscript itself belongs to the early part of 
 the fourteenth century,^ but its archetype was probably con- 
 siderably older. Zacher concluded that it was pre-Tzetzian. 
 This codex must be used with caution in reconstituting the text 
 of the commentary; nevertheless there is always a possibility 
 that a better reading than the other manuscripts afford may lurk 
 in a note as we find it in this book, since the manuscript from 
 which its archetype was composed may have contained a better 
 text of the scholia than any we now possess. 
 
 But the commentary as a whole in each of the three manu- 
 scripts just considered is contaminated by additions of which 
 Contamination many are demonstrably not ' old ' and all are open to 
 ofTEM suspicion. These are glosses or short interlinear or 
 
 intramarginal notes, sometimes also extramarginal ; only one 
 of them is of considerable amount, the addition to the comment 
 on verse 250 that sets forth the sad tale of Alcyone.^ The 
 greatest number are found in the Florentine manuscript, in 
 the handwriting of T\ There are hundreds of them on the 
 Aves alone in this manuscript,^ but only twenty-seven in E, 
 twenty-four in M. Notes of this description cannot be ignored 
 by a student of the text of the commentary. They are not in 
 V or R or in those parts of T, E, and M which furnish old

 2 An ancient story, but the particular form of it in r^ and M has not been 
 traced, so far as I am aware, to an earlier source than these manuscripts of the 
 fourteenth century. It is found also in pseudo-Eudocia (see Flach's edition, 62), 
 but the almost exact verbal identity of the story as there told with the account in 
 the Princeps (note in particular dXKVoviriSas KaXoviUvas found in P but not in r^ or 
 M) makes it likely that Phavorinus, from whom Palaeokappa cribbed the note, 
 extracted it not from some manuscript but from the printed book. See the 
 parallel cases in Pulch's De Eudociae quod fertur Violario, Dissertationes Philo- 
 logicae Argentoratenses IV (1880) 338 f .

 illustrate his less drastic manner of dealing with the old schoha.

 The first printed edition of Aristophanes'' is a remarkable 
 
 ibook. Its collection of scholia is so good that it has served as 
 
 the basis of all subsequent editions of the commentary

 to the sources from which this collection was compiled is lacking. 
 
 Musurus, its editor, following the fashion of his time, refers to 
 
 them only in vague terms. In the Address to his Readers he

 their confused arrangement and the time and labor required to 
 reduce their contents to the proper order ; and in the subscription 
 to the first seven plays, which were to have been the contents of 
 the book as it was first planned, he makes only the same general 
 reference to the sources of his materials.^ We may never learn 
 what particular manuscripts he had at command,^ but investiga- 
 tion is gradually determining more and more exactly the tradi- 
 tions that underlie his great compilation of scholia. In view of 
 its intrinsic and historical importance, I have reported it as scru- 
 pulously for the old scholia as the manuscripts which I have 
 collated with the Transcript of the Venetus, and have recorded 
 all the remaining comments it contains in the collection of Sup- 
 plementary Notes. It contains notes not found in any manu- 
 script.^ The sources of some of these are easily recognized ; 
 those of the others remain to be studied and perhaps identified. 
 This important edition of nine plays and the commentary on 
 them brings us within the range of printed books.

 2 Zuretti in his Analecta, 35 ff., maintains that E, a Ms. that once belonged 
 to Musurus, is virtually the sole source of the text of the Aldine edition of 
 Aristophanes for the six plays that this Ms. contains, and that E and Mg are 
 ■the chief sources of its scholia. Gary has shown, as has just been noted, that 
 M9 is a copy of E, but abridged. Zacher dissents from Zuretti's conclusions : 
 see Bursian's Jahresbericht LXXI (1892), 30 ff., 119. They can now be thor- 
 oughly tested for the scholia on the Aves by means of the reports in the 
 present book.

 The manuscript contains scholia so abundant ^ that they often require 
 all four margins and are sometimes intramarginal or even extramarginal. 
 The marginal scholia, which are at times out of order, and the interlinear 
 glosses and short notes were written, with many compendia, by four hands': 
 the first scribe wrote those on folios 52-56', the second those on 4-43', the 
 third those on 43"-51, the fourth those on 56"-172, but the first scribe 
 was the supervisor of the execution of the book and his vigorous hand 
 appears in aU parts of it. An entry on fol. 1" states that the volume was 
 once part of the library of Cardinal Bessarion. 
 
 1 A bare reference is to Dubner's Scholia Graeca in Aristop?ianem (1841) ; a 
 reference preceded by the word Kaibel is to that scholar's Comicorum Graeeorum 
 Fragmenta. Reference is made to the Arguments of the comedies by Dubner's 
 numbers. The statement of contents does not attempt to indicate the order of 
 the parts of a document, if It is divided in any manuscript, but places it where 
 it chiefly occurs.

THE MANUSCRIPTS Ixxxvii 
 
 The arguments of the Aves begin on the ninth line from the bottom 
 of fol. 94", the text and scholia on the eleventh line from the top of fol. 95". 
 The scholia, as well as the text of the play, were written by the fourth 
 scribe, but the hand of the supervisor is seen throughout. He is particu- 
 larly active in the scholia : he corrects the fourth hand, often erasing the 
 first entry and rewriting ; he adds omitted scholia, sometimes inadvertently 
 repeating a note already copied, even by himself ; at times he himself 
 writes all the notes on a page or two. But since both scribes were using 
 the same original, these facts have only palaeographical interest and the 
 difference of hands is not noted in the Transcript. In the Collation, Vv 
 signifies a correction made by either of these scribes. The note is referred 
 to the text by lemma ; by signum, either an arbitrary character or a Greek 
 numeral ; by both signum and lemma ; by its position either after or before 
 the verse, a method employed oftenest on the inner margin and for a short 
 note, but in either position the note may be headed also by a signum ; by 
 its position over the verse, the interlinear note being generally simply a gloss.

Ixxxviii ARISTOPHANES 
 
 That part of this manuscript which contains plays of Aristophanes is a 
 copy of V,i as Dindorf surmised, E. Hiller affirmed, and Zacher demon- 
 strated. The copy is handsomely executed, and was made, with few era- 
 sures and corrections, by a single hand. On fol. 1" are inscribed the 
 contents of the book and Cardinal Bessarion's name and titles. 
 
 The Aves occupies folios 86-111', with the arguments and list of charac- 
 ters on 86', 86" The scholia are written in a small but beautiful hand 
 on the outer and when necessary lower margins, rarely on the upper 
 margin. They confirm the conclusion that G is a copy of V, but it was 
 not made mechanically. The scribe was a scholar and his object was to 
 produce a copy of the commentary in V that should be free from the con- 
 fusion which prevails in that manuscript through crowding, disorderly 
 arrangement, and repetition. He therefore first of all restored the scholia 
 to the proper order of the verses of the play. In doing this he often put 
 notes that are intramarginal or interlinear in V in their place, in proper 
 numerical order, on the margin. In referring the scholia to the text he 
 abandoned the use of signa altogether and adopted the lemma of V, if it 
 has one ; otherwise he either introduced a lemma of his own, availing 
 himself of such indications as are furnished in V by the use of a bare 
 signum or by position, or more frequently trusted to the position of the 
 note on his outer margin, which is ample, or to the restored order of 
 arrangement to guide the reader of his book. On folio 100', V practically 
 abandons the use of lemmata, and the ingenuity of the scribe of G was put 
 to the test in the remainder of the play. It will be observed from the 
 report in the Collation that he omitted some notes altogether, but he adds 
 none. The two quotations from Platonius that begin his prolegomena are 
 his only substantial contributions. The writing of the scholia in V is 
 often crabbed and confused, and the scribe of G, unprotected by the use of 
 other manuscripts, sometimes fell into error. The slight verbal changes 
 that he made in the text of the notes are only such as we should expect 
 from a scholar of the fifteenth century who, while endeavoring to repro- 
 duce his original faithfully, did not hesitate to correct what he regarded 
 as its errors. That he in turn should make mistakes was inevitable ; he 
 was undertaking a difficult job single-handed.

 beginning of the eleventh century. It consists of one hundred and ninety- 
 -two numbered folios, measuring 32.5 by 21..5 cm., and contains eleven 
 comedies: Plutus, Nubes, Ranae, Aves, Equites, Pax, Lysistrata, Achar- 
 nians, Vespae, Thesmophoriazusae, Ecclesiazusae. 
 
 Plutus (fol. 1-15') : Text and Notes ; Nubes (15"-32) : Text and Notes ; 
 Ranae (33-52') : Argument II, Characters, Argument I, Text and Notes ; 
 Aves (52"-75', with 75" blank) : Arguments IV, I, Characters, Argument 
 II, Text and Notes ; Equites (76-92") : Text and Notes ; Pax (92"-110, 
 with 98' blank) : Arguments II, III, Text and Notes ; Lysistrata (111-127) : 
 Arguments I, II, Text and Notes ; Acharnians (128-142) : Arguments I, 
 II (through iroiijTijs), Characters, Text and Notes ; Vespae (143-162') : 
 Arguments II, I, Characters, Text and Notes; Thesmophoriazusae (162"- 
 177') : Text and Notes ; Ecclesiazusae (177'-191) : Argument I, Text and 
 Notes. Fol. 192' contains simply a list of the plays in the codex in a late 
 hand, fol. 192" is blank. Two unnumbered parchment folios precede 
 fol. 1, and the verso of the second of these also contains a list of the plays. 
 
 The scholia, written loosely on all four margins, are relatively meagre,^ 
 and are lacking altogether on fol. 56"-57" (Aves 256-386), 78"-92" 
 (Equites 216-1408), 107-110" (Pax 1052-1353). The omission of pro- 
 legomena and of arguments to four plays is further evidence of the faulty 
 execution of the book. The text and scholia of the Nubes begin at the 
 top of fol. 15" ; the Plutus ends on 15', but occupies only twelve written 
 lines ; the rest of the page is blank. The Nubes similarly ends on 32", but 
 occupies only ten lines ; under these is inscribed Ap«rTo<^ai/ows wrodia-K 
 in two lines ; the rest of the page is blank. The Aves ends on the eleventh 
 line of 75' ; the rest of this page and 75" are blank, in provision apparently 
 for the arguments of the Equites. The Pax has the second and third 
 arguments on 92"; 93' is blank, apparently awaiting the first argument. 
 Except four lines, all of 162', preceding the text and scholia of the Thes- 
 mophoriazusae, is blank. The scholia were written in semiuncial by two 
 hands : the first scribe entered those on 1-75' and 93-106, the second the 
 remainder. 
 
 The arguments of the Aves begin on fol. 52", the text and scholia at 
 the top of 53". The scholia and glosses were all written by the hand of 
 the first scribe of scholia, and corrections are rare. The notes are referred 
 to the text preferably by lemma, but sometimes by signum, rarely by both 
 at once, and sometimes by position. If the scribe trusts to position to 
 indicate the textual connexion of a note written on the outer margin, 
 where most of the notes are found, the device is at times unsuccessful in 
 •consequence of displacement.

 Codex Laurentianus XXXI 15 (symbol V) in the Biblioteca Mediceo- 
 Laurenziana in Florence, a paper manuscript of the fourteenth century. 
 It consists of one hundred and sixty-two folios as numbered, but in fact of 
 one hundred and sixty-five, since three folios which may be designated as 
 66i>, 66<=, and 1621' -^ygre not included in the enumeration. The folios 
 measure 32.5 by 24.5 cm., and the book now contains the Hippolytus, Medea, 
 Alcestis, and Andromache of Euripides (fol. 1-66, with %&>, 66<= blank, 
 except as noted immediately below), and the Acharnians, Ecelesiazusae 
 (verses 1-1135), Equites, Aves (1-1419), Vespae (421-1382, 1385-96, 1494- 
 1537), and Pax (378-490, 548-837, 893-947, 1012-1126, 1190-1300) of 
 Aristophanes (fol. 67-162, with 162b blank). On the verso of 66o is a list 
 of the comedies contained in the second part of the manuscript, and this 
 list includes the Lysistrata after the Aves. The manuscript, therefore, 
 once comprised seven comedies.

 1 The Ecelesiazusae ends abruptly with verse 1135 at the middle of fol. 96'. 
 The remainder of this page and 96", which ends a ternion, would have been 
 sufiScient to complete this play. The Equites begins with the third argument 
 on fol. 98', the first folio of a quaternion. The third scribe (Introd. 81 f .), when 
 he revised the manuscript, here added a leaf, 97, and filled it with scholia on 
 the Equites for which he failed to find space on the folios of this play already 
 written by the first and second scribes. Each play in this manuscript, except 
 the Ecelesiazusae, had its folios separately numbered by numerals (a', /3', etc.) 
 placed above at the middle of the recto, generally preceded by an abbreviation 
 of the name of the play. These have been trimmed off in some instances. The 
 first indubitable numerical entry on the Equites still preserved is 5' on fol. 101'. 
 The enumeration, therefore, began with fol. 98', and consequently the additions

 The following manuscript was originally part of the preceding i : 
 
 Codex Leidensis 52 (symbol T) in the University Library in Leyden. It 
 consists of fifteen folios, that have been trimmed and now measure from 
 30.5 to 32 by 23 cm., and contains the Lysistrata (verses 1-61, 132-99, 
 268-819, 890-1034) and Aves (1492-65) of Aristophanes. The Codex 
 Leidensis consists of two manuscripts which were once Nos. 77 and 191 in 
 the library of Isaac Vos. 
 
 Lysistrata (fol. 1-11, but now numbered as pages 1-22) : Characters, 
 Text and Notes ; Aves (fol. 12-15, but now numbered as pages 12, 12', 13, 
 13', 14, 14', 15, 15') : Text and Notes. 
 
 This manuscript (T) has suffered grievously. Its composition is too 
 large a question to be discussed here, but there is satisfactory evidence 
 that it was originally designed to consist of at least twenty-nine quires, 
 chiefly quaternions. That intention, however, was not realized. When, 
 moreover, the quires were put together for binding, an accident befell the 
 twenty-eighth quire as originally planned, containing, with the lacunae 
 recorded above, verses 548-1243 of the Pax : the three inner sheets of the 
 quaternion were inverted and the order of the verses was thrown into 
 confusion, to the discomfort of all subsequent readers of the book.^ But 
 this is a small matter, a direr fate impended, for at some time subsequently, 
 probably early in the sixteenth century, the manuscript was violently dis- 
 membered. Fifteen folios ultimately got to Leyden and others were lost, 
 — a leaf from the Aves, five leaves at the beginning of the Vespae, five 
 
 to this manuscript on fol. 97 and elsewhere, made by the third scribe, are later 
 than the folio-enumerations. That the latter were not written by the third 
 hand is equally clear from the handwriting. 
 
 1 For a summary statement of the proofs of this fact, first announced by von 
 Velsen, see Zacher's Handschriften und Classen 549 f . 
 
 2 The proper order of the folios is I (verses 548-82), II (583-659), III (660- 
 780), IV (731-92), "V (793-837, 893-915, the omission occurring at the middle of 
 the verso), VI (916-47, 1012-42, the omission occurring as before within the 
 verso), VII (1043-1107), VIII (1107-26, 1190-1243, the omission occurring 
 within the recto). By inversion of the three inner double sheets the order 
 became I, V, VI, VII, II, III, IV, VIII, corresponding to fol. 154-161 of the 
 present book, with 154' blank.

 also at the beginning of the Pax, and probably some at the end of the 
 Lysistrata. Habent sua fata libelli ! 
 
 The arguments of the Aves begin on fol. 117" seven lines from the top, 
 the text and scholia at the top of 118". Three scribes contributed the 
 scholia and glosses. The first two were probably not contemporary : the 
 first makes no provision of space for a successor, although many of 
 his scholia, as we know them, were left incomplete and were actually com- 
 pleted later, generally under the prefix oAAojs elsewhere on the page, and 
 the second scribe used a manuscript of a different tradition from that of the 
 first. The third scribe was later than either the first or the second : other 
 scribes than either of these appear as copyists of the text and scholia of 
 other plays in the manuscript, but the restless and obtrusive hand of our 
 third scribe is seen in all the plays except the Ecclesiazusae, which remains, 
 untouched as it was left by its single copyist. The activity of this general 
 ' corrector ' of the work of all his predecessors, except on one play, ante- 
 dates the dismemberment of the manuscript, for additions and corrections 
 from his hand are found in the Lysistrata and that part of the Aves now 
 in Leyden. The text of the Aves, as of the other plays, is written in two 
 columns and the verses of the inner coltimn begin (on the recto) or end 
 (on the verso) near the edge of the page, leaving no space for marginal 
 scholia. Those in regular order on the upper, outer, and lower margins, 
 were contributed by the first hand. On fol. 118"-127' each note is con- 
 nected with the text by means both of a lemma and of a numerical signum 
 (a', /8', etc.) set on the outside of the margin over against the line in which 
 the scholium begins ; but from 127" to the end the signum is abandoned 
 and only the lemma is used. The few exceptions to this method that 
 occur are due to inadvertence. The second and third scribes vprote their 
 notes, of which the former contributed the larger number, wherever they 
 could find space for them, and many of the pages in consequence axe 
 crowded and confused. They added new scholia, or continuations with 
 aAAcDs of scholia given in part by the first scribe, on the lower margin or be- 
 tween the lines of the text or on the intramarginal or extramarginal spaces 
 or between the columns of text. Sometimes the added scholium was writ- 
 ten, with a warning, on a page where it did not belong. The third hand, e.g., 
 on fol. 124" prefixes to Schol. Av. 494 the direction : (rxpXaov t^s eiriovcnj? 
 £pju,r7V£uxs,with an arbitrary signum that is repeated over verse494 on fol. 125'. 
 These added scholia are connected with the text by position, by arbitrary 
 signum, by lemma, and by the last two combined. Kepetitions are frequent. 
 Both hands contributed interlinear glosses, the second hand abundantly.'

xciv AEISTOPHANES 
 
 This manuscript contains numerous scholia and rubricated interlinear 
 glosses, but scholia are lacking on the first three pages of the Plutus 
 (fol. 5-6'), which contain, however, some glosses and many Latin translar 
 tions of single words and phrases. The scholia are connected with the 
 text by means of lemmata, of which the initial letter is rubricated, a 
 useful device. The superscriptions of the prolegomena also are in red, 
 €K ToC nXaTwviov and the like. The text, scholia, and glosses are all written 
 by the same hand. A corrector revised the Plutus, Nubes, and Ranae, 
 making changes in very black ink, and his work is distinguishable also in 
 some degree on the Equites. 
 
 The manuscript consisted originally of two hundred and thirty-eight 
 folios, twenty-nine quaternions and one ternion (the fourth quire), which 
 are numbered with Greek numerals in the upper right hand corner of the 
 first recto of each quire (a' to X' inclusive) and generally also on its last 
 verso, but one quaternion has been lost (the thirteenth quire), containing 
 verses 222-601 of the Aves. Six paper leaves carrying a different water- 
 mark precede the two hundred and thirty extant folios of text and scholia. 
 The last four of the six are blank. The first was trimmed and pasted to 
 the recto of a fly-leaf that was inserted when the book was last bound. At 
 the top of this reduced leaf is written : De miser Marco Musuro | Questo 
 libro 6 de mi Andronioo Manolesso | Aluise Barbaro. The book, therefore, 
 once belonged to Musurus, the compiler of the first printed edition of 
 Aristophanes. An incomplete late index to the scholia on the Plutus in 
 this manuscript begins on the same page with the three declarations 
 of ownership just quoted and runs through the verso of the second leaf. 
 The six leaves mentioned are included in a correct total enumeration found 
 in the upper right hand corner of the first page of the first quire and on 
 the last page of the last quire : 236 . The thirteenth quire, therefore, had 
 already been lost when this Arabic summary was made, but not before the 
 Greek numbering of the quires, since the quire marked k8' follows KyS' 
 immediately in the present book.'- 
 
 The arguments of the Aves ^ begin on the eighth line from the bottom 
 of fol. 169", the text and scholia on 170". The scribe has executed his 
 task admirably : only half a dozen scholia are out of proper numerical 
 order, and the interlinear and intramarginal notes are placed with precision ; 
 in one instance, when lack of space has compelled him to carry four notes 
 over to the next page, he is careful to give warning : ry ottutOo' ; in another, 
 when by unusual inadvertence he has entered three short scholia too early, 
 he repeats them on the next — and proper — page. 
 
 ^ There have been two blundering attempts, both very late, to number the 
 folios of the manuscript by Arabic figures inserted here and there.

xcvi AEISTOPHANES 
 
 Each of the five comedies is accompanied by a commentary, and occa- 
 sional interlinear interpretations in Latin of single words are also found 
 on fol. 92"-124'. The glosses and some scholia on the Plutus, written in 
 red ink, are mediaeval. After these had been entered, marginal scholia 
 were added in black ink, with only initial letters and numerical signa in 
 red, from the corpus of old scholia, but rewritten. Notes of both periods 
 are found also on the Nubes, as follows : Mediaeval scholia with the 
 initial letter of the scholium or of the lemma, if there is one, in red ink, 
 sometimes with an entire lemma in red, are written in the usual manner 
 on the upper, outer, and lower margins, but these cease after fol. 124'. 
 Interlinear glosses and interlinear or intramarginal short notes of the same 
 late period, in red ink, also occur in considerable number. After these had 
 been entered, old scholia, but rewritten, were added in black ink, generally 
 with a lemma in red, on the margins wherever there was space, sometimes 
 constituting a second outer column on the outer margin, and glosses also 
 and interlinear and intramarginal notes, both of the early period, were 
 added in a deep red ink. By these particularities the amiable author of 
 these contributions to knowledge sensibly lightened the labors of twentieth- 
 century investigators. The glosses on the Ranae, in red ink, are also 
 mediaeval. The later commentary on these three plays is thus distin- 
 guished from the older not only by its content but also by formal indica- 
 tions. The handwriting, however, furnishes no help in separating the two 
 sorts of exegesis. These mediaeval notes on the Plutus, Nubes, and Eanae 
 are probably the earliest commentary on Aristophanes of this period of 
 Byzantine scholarship that we possess. ^ On the Equites and Aves the 
 marginal scholia in black ink and most of the glosses and intramarginal 
 notes in red are based on the corpus of older scholia.^ 
 
 The arguments to the Aves begin on fol. 199", twelve lines from the 
 bottom, the text and scholia on fol. 200', a few lines from the top, and pass 
 at the twenty-first verse to fol. 200". Fringes remain of three folios that 
 once followed fol. 231, and 231" and 232', as has been remarked, are blank. 
 The scribe's original intention, therefore, was to complete the Aves. His 
 failure to do this discredits Zuretti's supposition" that that part of this 
 manuscript containing Aristophanes may originally have included another 
 
 1 See Introd. 82 f . This mediaeval comment is found in no other manuscript 
 of Aristophanes, so far as is yet known from examination of the manuscripts 
 that contain these three plays, but some of the notes on the Nubes in M are 
 found among certain anecdota which Sturz published from a codex Darmsta- 
 dinus in his Etymologicum Graecae Linguae Gudianum (1818) spat. 644. 
 
 2 See Zacher, Handschriften und Classen 554 ff., 567 ff. On 568 fE. he

 comedy. The text and notes of the Aves were both written by the same 
 firm and legible hand. The scholia occupy the upper and outer and (when 
 required) lower margins, but never the inner, and with the exception of 
 the first scholium, which uses an arbitrary signum, are referred to the text 
 by numerals, which like the initial letters of the scholia are written in red 
 ink. These numerals run continuously from a' to p^, then the enumeration 
 begins again with a on f ol. 205' and runs [to pi on 210", and (beginning 
 each time with a') to pia (the only case of three figures) on 216', to pi on 
 222", to p' on 227", to iy on 231', where this part of the manuscript 
 abruptly ends. Lemmata are not employed. The scholia generally follow 
 one another on the margins in the strict numerical order of the verses of 
 the play and are only occasionally misplaced, but those that interpret the 
 last verses on a page are apt to be written on the following page. Glosses 
 are infrequent ; when they occur they are written, like the abbreviations 
 of the names of the dramatis personae, in red ink ; a few intramarginal 
 notes occur, written in red ink, and these are connected with the text by 
 an arbitrary signum.

 Characters in the Play (78") ; Nubes (102-144") : Argument I, on the

 At the beginning of the scholia on the Plutus is inscribed : toC <To<j>tjyra.- 
 Tov TZETZOY i^riyi]<Tis £is tov ' A-pixrTO(j)a.vr)V. This manuscript has peculiar 
 interest, since it furnishes a Tzetzian commentary on the Aves as well as 
 on the three Byzantine plays.* In this particular it is unique. As a whole 
 it confirms the conclusion that Tzetzes, like his successors, based his notes 
 on the old scholia. But he had different manners : his handling of his 
 material is here much freer in his commentary on the Nubes and Ranae 
 than in that on the Plutus — greatly to one's surprise — and Aves. It 
 appears, furthermore, that he had a fuller and better text of the old com- 
 mentary at command than we now possess. His notes, therefore, must not 
 be neglected in any attempt to restore the text of the old scholia, how- 
 ever difficult the task of using them may be. I have not admitted those 
 on the Aves in this manuscript into the Collation, but have cited them in 
 my critical notes wherever they seemed to throw light on the text.

 Each comedy is accompanied by a commentary which consists of occa- 
 sional marginal scholia, interlinear scholia that constantly overrun into 
 the margin, and interlinear glosses, all written in violet or red ink ; but 
 these notes have no independent value, since they are rewritings of the 
 notes in Codex E.^ Specimens selected from the Aves are printed else- 
 where in this book (p. 319 ff.). An entry on a fly-leaf states that the man- 
 uscript once belonged to George Valla (1430-1499). It was part of the 
 Ambrosian Library when this was formally opened by Cardinal Borromeo, 
 its founder, in 1609, having been acquired six years previously.

 The manuscript contains a few brief marginal scholia ; rubricated inter- 
 linear glosses are more frequent, but not abundant. These notes have no in- 
 dependent value, "^ but to facilitate inspection those on the Aves are printed 
 elsewhere in this book (p. 323). The folios of the manuscript are gathered 
 in twenty-nine quires and the quires of each play are numbered separately 
 on the recto of the first folio : Ranae a'-^', Equites a'-^', Aves a'-Q', Achar- 
 nians o'-g', but on each of these initial folios there is also an Arabic 
 enumeration that is significant : Ranae 15-21, Equites 22-28, Aves 35-43, 
 Acharnians 29-34. The manuscript, moreover, lacks the customary prole- 
 gomena, and the superscription of the first play reads : 'Apto-TO<^avovs Spafm 
 wpiTov BaTpa;(ot. These facts indicate that the book originally contained 
 two other plays, probably the Plutus and Nubes as in E,^ and that the 
 Acharnians preceded the Aves at the time the Arabic enumeration was made.

 'ENNEA, edited by Marcus Musurus, the Cretan, and published by Aldus 
 in Venice in 1498.* It consists of three hundred and forty-eight unnum- 
 bered folios, measuring 32 x 21 cm., and contains nine comedies : Plutus, 
 Nubes, Ranae, Equites, Acharnians, Vespae, Aves, Pax (verses 1-947, 
 1012-1353), Ecclesiazusae. The book is composed of forty-three quires, 
 numbered by the twenty-four small letters of the Greek alphabet and the 
 first nineteen capitals. These quires are all quaternions except the fourth, 
 fifteenth, and fortieth, quinions; twenty-first, thirtieth, and forty-third, 
 temions; and the thirty-sixth, a binion. An introductory quaternion, 
 containing the Title and Contents, Aldus's Dedication, Musurus's Address 
 to his Readers, and the Prolegomena, precedes the first quire.

 iiii recto) : Arguments II, I, Characters, Text and Notes. ' Each play 
 begins and ends with a quire. Occasionally a blank page, or leaf or two, 
 occur at the close of a play, finishing its last quire. 
 
 The scholia are printed on the outer and lower margins, and are so 
 abundant that the lower margin is required in all the plays, but rarely in 
 the Ecclesiazusae. No notes occur between the lines or within the margins : 
 the interlinear glosses and interlinear and intramarginal short notes found 
 in the manuscripts are here either put among the longer scholia on the 
 margins or omitted, and such omissions are frequent. Musurus attempted 
 to arrange the notes in the numerical order of the verses of the plays, and 
 pathetically complains of the difficulty of his task, but with the best 
 intentions he was not always successful. 
 
 The scholia are referred to the text by lemmata, and two notes that are 
 separate in all or most manuscripts are often joined under a single caption 
 in the Princeps. In determining his lemmata Musurus faced the same 
 problem that confronts the more modern editor. The old independent 
 commentaries show a varying practice in selecting them : ^ in the fuller com- 
 mentaries on the poets, a whole verse or even more than a single verse 
 often constituted the lemma, and notes on different parts of this might 
 be grouped together, or at the other extreme the lemma might be a short, 
 precise phrase of two or three words. These independent commentaries 
 invariably employed a lemma of some sort, but the editor of a parchment 
 codex that gave both text and notes on the same page could dispense with 
 the lemma and trust to position or use a signum in referring the note to 
 the text. His object was to economize space, and the same motive curtailed 
 long lemmata. A whole verse as lemma is a rare phenomenon in the extant 
 manuscripts of Aristophanes, and in these the first two or more words of 
 
 ^ Introd. 58 ff. 
 
THE MANUSCEIPTS ciii 
 
 a verse or actor's speech often constitute the lemma, although the following 
 note relates to the whole. In these cases the lemma is intentionally in- 
 complete ; the reader is left to find his own way, and generally the matter 
 is sufficiently clear. This loose practice is in marked contrast with the 
 particularity of some modern editors. In the Transcript and Collation 
 I have reported as precisely as possible the manner in which the six manu- 
 scripts here used (VGRrEM) and the Princeps connect the note with the 
 text. The underlying lemma is generally the same in all, but the manner 
 of indicating it and the choice of words, if any part of it is actually 
 expressed, vary greatly. The causes of this variation are apparent : the 
 original desire to economize space which curtailed long lemmata or sup- 
 pressed them altogether, and the peculiar exigencies that scribes, who were 
 themselves the successors of other scribes in a long line, had to meet each 
 in his own book. A modern editor in command of the manuscript traditions 
 generally has no difficulty in determining the ancient intention, but he 
 cannot assume to do more than that. 
 
 The claim that the Princeps ' has the authority of a manuscript ' is a 
 loose statement that needs qualification, but nobody questions that this 
 book is a very important document in the study of our poet. Among the 
 many scholars who have touched on its commentary, generally in a histori- 
 cal survey that proceeds to the consideration of subsequent editions, see 
 the admiring words of Ghelen, a pupil of Musurus, in the dedication of 
 the Basle edition (1547) ; Kilster's discriminating estimate in the preface 
 of the great Amsterdam edition (1710) ; Dindorf in his Oxford edition IV 
 1 (1838) vii ff. ; and Rutherford in his Scholia Aristophanica I (1896) xivff.

EXPLANATIONS OF USAGE 
 
 References are made to the pages of the Introduction (except in the Indexes) 
 by Arabic numerals preceded by the abbreviation Introd. 
 On MSS., see Introd. 81 ff., 86 fe. 
 
 TRANSCRIPT 
 
 The Transcript includes all notes in V ; all notes in R that are not in V ; all 
 scholia in r by the first hand (Introd. 82, 92) that are not in V or R ; all scholia 
 in E (Introd. 82, 94) that are not in V, R, or r. See Introd. 77 and n. 5. 
 
 The abbreviations ext., int., sup., and inf., signify that the scholium is 
 vrritten respectively on the outer, inner, upper, or lower margin of the MS. ; 
 intm. and extm., that the note occurs vrithin or vrithout one of the lateral 
 margins occupied by scholia. S with a Greek word or words attached to it 
 signifies that the following note is referred to the text of the play in the 'MS. 
 quoted by means of an arbitrary or numerical sign ; p. v. and a. v., that the 
 note is written directly after or before the verse to which it belongs ; the char- 
 acter ) with a Greek word or words or the number of the verse preceding it, 
 that the note is interlinear. This preliminary matter is invariably followed, 
 except in case of interlinear notes, by a single bracket ] . 
 
 Lemmata are printed in heavy-face type. 
 
 The scribes of V and R used many abbreviations in writing, of which the 
 value is generally fixed. If the scribe's intention is not doubtful, the full form 
 of the word is given in the Transcript, without notice ; if the force of the abbre- 
 viation is ambiguous, the abbreviated syllable is indicated by two heavy dots • • . 
 
 The Transcript is an exact copy, with respect to breathings, accents, and 
 spelling, of the MSS. quoted. The only mark of punctuation here used is the 
 middle point, representing the constantly uncertain pointing of the originals. 
 
 For Supplementary Notes, see Introd. 83 ff., and below, pp. 305 ff. 
 
 COLLATION 
 
 The Collation reports allvariations from the text of the Transcript that occur 
 in VGRFEMP, and occasionally variants in Suidas (S), but differences in breath- 
 ings and accents and in the use of movable y are not recorded unless significant. 
 Agreements with the Transcript are entered only when one of the three hands 
 in r (r, r^, r') agrees and another disagrees with the Transcript, or in rare in- 
 stances of similar variant readings in other MSS. or P. A lower-case v attached 
 to a symbol (as Vv, Rv, etc.) signifies a variant from the reading here first 
 entered from the MS. indicated by the symbol, or from P, in which a printed 
 note sometimes occurs twice in varying forms. 
 
 The omission of an entire note given in the Transcript from any of the MSS. 
 just mentioned or P is always reported (e.g. Om. G, Om. VGrEMP, etc.). 
 
cxii SCHOLIA ON THE AVES 
 
 The mode in which each note reported in the Collation is referred to the text 
 of the play in its original is always stated, if the reference is made by a signum 
 (S), or by placing the note over the verse, or by use of a lemma. " S om. Text " 
 signifies that the signum before a note has been inadvertently omitted from the 
 text of the play. An interlinear note is indicated by the character ) placed 
 after the Greek word or words over which the note is written in the text of the 
 play, or after the numeral indicating the verse. All information about lemmata 
 is placed within a pair of double brackets [[ ]]. If the note in the Transcript has 
 a lemma, only the omission of the lemma in other MSS. or P (except M, which 
 never uses the lemma) or variants from it in these books are recorded within the 
 brackets ; if it has no lemma, the facts for each MS. (except M) and P are stated 
 in full. A symbol with an attached asterisk signifies that the note is the con- 
 tinuation of a note in the MS. (or P) indicated by the symbol. This note is gen- 
 erally the preceding note in the Transcript, but sometimes that which follows. 
 
 It should be observed that, since the notes entered by r" and r' are irregular 
 later, and generally partial, additions to the notes of the first scribe (Introd. 92), 
 omissions by these two hands of matter found in the Transcript are generally 
 not recorded. Omissions in Suidas also are not recorded. 
 
 A double bracket ]] (generally the last of the pair containing information 
 about lemmata) always separates the preliminary matter that records omissions 
 and modes of reference from the collation proper. 
 
 The words in the Collation quoted as a lemma from the Transcript are in 
 heavy-face type and are followed by a single bracket. 
 
 A variant reading preserves the breathings, accents, and punctuation (by the 
 use simply of the middle point) of the first MS. in order, if more than one MS. 
 has the reading, a fact indicated by two or more following symbols.

 On lemmata, see'Introd. 102 f. 
 
 Readings enclosed within a pair of halved brackets ■" "" are either readings 
 which seem to find support in readings that occur in V, R, r, E, or M, or read- 
 ings which, while they wholly lack the authority of these MSS., occur or are 
 suggested in G, P, or S. On the authority of G and P, see Introd. 88, 103. 
 
 Clear additions to the text are inclosed within a pair of angular brackets < ). 
 
 It is intended in poetical quotations to preserve the orthography of Aris- 
 tophanes's time. This practice is justified, perhaps, by their intrinsic impor- 
 tance, but it involves a certain inconsistency, since lemmata are spelled as nearly 
 as possible in the fashion of the times of the authors of the notes. 
 
 For a list of Conjectural Readings now first proposed, see pp. civff. 
 
 NOTES 
 
 The Notes relate solely to the establishment of the text, including those 
 which are interpretative. Purely exegetical notes are excluded. 
 On the use of Suidas and other lexicographers, see Introd. 78 f .

 II This argument is read in V(G)B and the Princeps. Statements that it 
 is late (Dindorf, Blaydes) and that it is not read in V (Dubner, Blaydes, Hall 
 and Geldart, van Leeuwen) require correction. Brunck and Bekker omit it. —

 Rutherford has retained, seems to be impossible, first because it commits the 
 writer to the statement that meetings of the Assembly were not held in Aris- 
 tophanes's time, and secondly and chiefly because the parenthetic clause (pavepws

 hoped matters would mend. Both names are interpreted from the point of 
 view of Euelpides. To say that Euelpides ' relies on ' (Tri-n-oiBa) Peithetaerus 
 is a mode of expressing the converse fact that Peithetaerus 'wins over' 
 {ireWeiv) his comrade Euelpides. Peithetaerus initiates the action of the play, 
 and the poet named him thus us ireWwy riv eratpov (Dohree). (Cf. the note on 
 Schol. 1.) Euelpides himself belongs to the class of the hopeful, and him the 
 poet duhs ' Hopefulson. ' The ordinary interpretation of the passage refers 
 Irepos to Peithetaerus. Thus Meineke, who would read us el weiroidotri 6 Irepos

 ing this view, thinks the passage has suffered in transmission and would read

 1 6p6T]v keXcvcis : the lemma is intentionally incomplete. See Introduc- 
 tion, p. 103, and cf. 10, 12, 22, etc. — Iv aitdirrif : in sight, in prospectu. Cf. 
 ivTiii/ievos iv iiTrlyirTtff los. A. I. xiii 14 2. iv iwlmTtf tois voKculoii id. B. I. V 9 I. 
 This meaning of dtiroirTos is certiiied as early as Arist. Pol. ii 9 7. The tra- 
 ditional interpretation of iv iirbrTif ti.vI, somewhere out of sight, assumes 
 that the annotator thought the tree in question was not seen by the spec- 
 tators, although visible to Euelpides. Rutherford goes a step farther, and 
 assuming that it was seen only by the crow conjectures that the annotator read 
 ^ n SivSpov in his text of the play. — to p.6v: the alternative reading (inferior) 
 would be, not t^J fi-iv . . . rf di (EM), but toO fjiiv . . . roO di. — ircCSciv tov «toi- 
 pov: i.e. ireiffreraip, ireidreTaip being mistaken for ireWe(r0ai. (Mehler proposes 
 ircWcfffloi T(? iralpif, but the meaning is wrong, Blaydes simply veWuv). This 
 gives the form U.aBiTai.poi, with meaning that befits the character, and the com- 
 ment accounts for both parts of the compound. 
 
 2 Suid. (cpiiffi. — i^'Se 8' avl KptS^ei irdXiv : diappayelrit, which is addressed to 
 the crow, is not included in the lemma in any MS. ; but irdXiv (RrM) seems 
 to be a necessary part of it, since t6 yip irdXiv follows. — tovto : Rutherford's 
 toCto X^ct is supported by M, but cf. 34, 45, etc. — E alone has Kal iv oXXois.

 6 The ancient grammarians also uniformly testify that Tr\etv is a contract 
 form of ■ir\4ov, which is unsound doctrine. In Portus the scholium for the first 
 time reads : 'Attiktj ij Kpdtris toO TrXiov irXeiv. rj ^K rov ttXcwi' Kwrk ff\r)/K(m^v 
 elpriTaL. Kuster rejected the addition.

 is an intrusion from the first part of the note. 
 
 11 Suid. 'EiriKciTTiSris. Apost. vii 55. Cf. App. Prov. ii 70 ; Greg. Cyp. 
 M. iv 77. Suid. has important additions. " Sine dubio olim in Scholiis etiam 
 ea legebantur quae e Suida apposui" von Leutsch, who would incorporate 
 Suidas's note entire. This is an extreme view, since Suidas has many similar 
 additions in proverbial form that are not in the scholia. Cf. Suid. ^^ttijStjs, 
 Xiiu6s M77Xioros, xapaSpiis, etc. But his note undoubtedly contains a part of 
 the old scholium which is not found in the MSS. This he has recast in pro- 
 verbial form, after his manner (note etirov). — rds oSous ^iviSo-kciv : for the con-

 23 Dindorf's assumption, which Eutherford adopts, that the language of 
 the note shows that ^St; was read in the text of the play in some MSS. (^Ji; 
 Kopiivq) is not necessary, since the note is an entirely satisfactory explanation of 
 either of the traditional readings of the text found in the MSS. {^S' rj and oiS' ^); 
 the assumption, moreover, professedly rests (Dind. in ed. Ox. Ill 584) on a wrong 
 reading of the lemma of E. The rough breathing is found in the lemma in all 
 the MSS. except E (which has oiS') : ijS' EFG, ^3' V. In the text of the play 
 the MSS. read ■?S' E, ijS' TM (oid' VGE). The anarthrous xopiiyri, one would 
 think, must have seemed intolerable even to a Byzantine. He possibly might 
 have thought the poet wrote ^ S" ^ Kopiivt) t^s 680O n \iyei tripi ;

 Bernhardy's view, "id [i.e. SdKvova-a, vapk ttjk /3opa»] si volebat grammati-

 this is the first interpretation of the verse. The assumption is that Euelpides 
 speaks fiercely : Are bird-catchers such terrible folk ? Don't you call us that! 
 According to the second view his tone is jocular and familiar, i.e. he speaks ' in 
 comic character ' (iv riSei) : Do we look so shocking thai you think we 're bird-

 See the note just below on irapeyivovTo. — «\B6vt€s : uSe iXBbvres refers to the 
 appearance of the Epops and his attendant, to judge from their looks, and bal- 
 ances 5id rijv 6'1/t.v of the preceding interpretation. The annotator immediately

 ri^aaiv is the reading in the text of the play in both M and U, and the editors 
 of Suidas before Gaisford read ri^ovinv s.v. iryeia. Kuster even says: "Apud 
 Aristophanem hodie minime recte legitur et^anv."

 102 Suid. ToiSs. — VE have the right lemma ; in FP the lemma conforms 
 to the mistaken interpretation which substituted ivSpwiros for ipvis, not for tows. 
 The correct interpretation in V appears rewritten in M : eSei ydp elTtiv S.v8p<moi 
 Kal elire Talis. The form of the note in E shows how the error arose. Van 
 Leeuwen's interpretation, 'homo an nugator,' assumes the wrong form of the 
 scholium. — Sao-vvcTai : Suid. (cod. AV) alone has the correct reading. Cf . 
 Athen. ix 398 a. : ol 'AttikoI Kal daaipovcn Kal ■irepurirQ(ri (on the authority of 
 Seleuous). Cf. 379 e (Trypho). Suid. (cod. V) has the lemma tow'us. — t| xaus 
 6 Xe76|ievas Ti)pevs : rj raws got misplaced in the MSS. The transposition 
 restores the sense and is confirmed by the beginning of the note in Suid. : tows • 
 6 rripeis. Are you a bird, or the well-known peacock (i.e. Argus, once an 
 dpSpwiros) who got the name of Tereus, etc. No MS., it should be added, gives 
 even a hint that ^ raws contains a concealed lemma. 
 
 Spvi6i : 6pneo5 G and the editors. — irpos to |t^7c6os Krh : in explanation of 
 TOWS. This is the word whose interpretation is sought in all three notes on 102 ; 
 ipvts needs no interpretation.

 Eossbach and Westphal agree, and this rhythm has been generally accepted, 
 but the word 'TvipPoTws is now seen to have the authority only of P, and the 
 resolved metre in the second verse is doubtful. Meineke objected to aix/iiraTos

 i'TTTaTai. — ij : Capps, to whom the preceding note is due. 5 might easily dis- 
 appear before the first syllable of ^Trei. The emendation restores meaning to a 
 difficult passage. Musurus boldly changed (puv^s to fwp(j>T]s. — \iyti, (M): i.e. 
 Homer, though perhaps we should read X^ouo-i = KiKk-liiTKovai.. 
 
 266 Suid. itrifid^eiv and xapadptbs. — |xeTaPaXX6}jLevo9 . . . iroiovvrai : the note 
 appears to interpret the word xapo5pi6s (as if we had ixeTa^iXKerai 5i toOto t4 
 6vona els to ktc.), as follows : t?ie charadrius is a kind of bird, (the word) chang- 
 ing into the readings here found, and there are two of these (namely xaptSp'^'' 
 and xap(i5/)iov — observe that the text of F has xapaSpii") : x^P"*?'^" (accusative 
 singular masculine), oxytone, if the word signifies the bird, but xapaSpioi/, if 
 it means torrent. The annotator then guards against one's natural surprise 
 that the same word (xapaSpibs, x''-P'^^P">^) should signify now 'bird,' now 'tor- 
 rent,' by the statement that torrents too are melodious ! Bernhardy adopts 
 Ktister's interpretation of this passage in Suidas: "est autem genus avis, quae 
 in quosvis colores mutetur — ceterum xapoSpiJs acuitur in ultima, contra x*?!^- 
 Spa in paenultima." This must mean that the bird changed color according to 
 its habitat, for no bird changes color, like the chameleon, at will. But the con- 
 text does not suggest the idea of color, and Kiister's version leaves Sixws S^ 
 unexplained. — It is just possible that the scholiast, mistaking the form of the 
 name of the bird, wrote xapaSp'Av (of. xapoSp'ti"' in V) Si lanv etSos 6pviov, /lero- 
 ^aWdfiemv Kri. There would thus be no difference in form. — cl Se lirl : iirl Si

 note ((TXfWi' ykp ra ■wKeiara ruv ipvimv iiri Trjs ipoivrjs €%« t^iv ivopaalav Ath.

 KTipiXos, found in all the best MSS., is right. The form xelpvKos is a pure fiction. 
 To foist it into the text of Aristophanes is a mistake, since it is not the piet's 
 practice to explain his puns.

 357 The scholiast's interpretation is erroneous, but that fact, as many 
 instances show, is not proof that the text of the note is not sound. The union 
 of this and the preceding note, as in r*, makes nonsense: iwel /lii Swi/ieBa

 did not perceive that dpTia-as modiiies the subject of Kariirrt^v. The remain- 
 der of the note explains irpis airiv of the vulgate text (MSS.) of verse 360, 
 which however must have been TrpAs air-fiv (Trendelenburg's conjecture) in the 
 text before the scholiast. Cf. Musurus's paraphrase: irlj^ov airiv (i.e. rJv

 which R omits the last set of interpretations. 
 
 430 Suid. Kipfm and Trai.TriiXr]/m. Hesych. xipiw,. — cvrcvyiia irpdYfiaros iroXXov : 
 in the verse of Aristophanes Kipim is applied not to the thing, as in Homer, hut 
 to a person, and means sharper. It is defined in the notes on 429, 430, first as 
 iiriTvyxi-voiv iv Tr-a<n, one who succeeds in everything, and secondly as TroXXofs 
 ivrtTvxnuiSis TrpdyiJia(ri., one who has had varied experience. Both definitions aim 
 to express the etymological relation of Kipfm to KvpeTv. As the former is summed 
 up in the word iiriTevyixa, a ' success,^ so possibly the latter in the phrase ivnvyiui 
 Tpdynaros ttoXXoC, an ' experiencer ' of many an affair, i.e. a man of large experi- 
 ence, by a shift, like that in idpfm, from the idea of conversance to that of con- 
 versant. Trpdynaros ttoXXoC represents the vulgate airdpaypa rod vox), which is of 
 dubious meaning although it is the reading of the best MSS. It should signify 
 one who rends (or attacks) the mind, hut this meaning is not pertinent. Kiister 
 suggested kvvwv for roO vov, Bernhardy tSiv dvepdnrwv. Rutherford deletes 
 inrdpaytia and transfers toO vov to the next definition, iv tois irpdyimffiv tov vov. 
 But if ToB vov is sound, we should perhaps convert %vTevyp.a airdpayiui toO vov into. 
 IvTevyiia els wpdyfiaTa tov coO (M has wpaypia tov vov), understanding that the 
 scholiast afllrms that Aristophanes's Kip^a is not a vulgar thief, but an accom- 
 plished and persuasive swindler. — irpd7^a<n.v : here also V has (rirapdyiuun.

 S/xwiti iiiveiv iv roirois in the scholium meaning I promise to stand by tke agree- 
 ment. — •jffifitvTai %i : sc. roOrb ^Tjcnv. The clause that follows vUris in TMP is 
 inconsistent alike with the preceding interpretation in the scholium and with 
 the true interpretation. 
 
 irlvTc Kpiral tovs ku|jiikovs : note that none of the MSS. has the reading ir^vrc 
 Kpiral except G (irivre eKpivav (cpirai), and there ir4vTe has no more authority 
 than attaches to a learned scribe. The Princeps has ol Kpiral, from which 
 Dindorf devised e Kptral. Nevertheless Tr4vre is clearly implied before icpiTol 
 by the following t4s tt^ktc ^i)0ous, and the fact is abundantly confirmed by 
 other testimony. Cf. Zen. iii 64 ; Suid. iv -wivre Kpiruv ybmcri ; Hesych. wivre 
 Kpiral. 
 
 446 The note is carelessly written, since a&rbv does not refer to the subject 
 of eux"""' ^>it to Peithetaerus. The scribe of M, perceiving this, wrote toCtoi'. 
 Rutherford's strict interpretation of airdv would make ea-rcu ravrayl a part of 
 the speech of the chorus.

 This is critical procedure run wild. His reading iraifos has been adopted by 
 all subsequent editors. Suidas, as it frequently happens, is nearer the mark. 
 In V the note is confused by its position ; tt^o-os oiv ifniri is at the bottom of one 
 folio and iSoo-iXeiis <t>ri(rt at the top of another. |8oo-iX« is probably right; cf.

 furnishes a proper antithesis to the following ol Si. (Dindorf reads 'Apxemov yip

 609 KaKus irapd to 'HoridSeiov iraC^ei: a jocular misinterpretation of He- 
 siod's verse, as (koI toCto) 575 is a jocular misquotation from Homer. The 
 scholiast does not refer to vivre (which is a mere matter of metre) in con- 
 trast with iiiv4a, but to yeveis. In the verse of Aristophanes yevei neces- 
 sarily means 'generation,' but in Hesiod it signifies 'year.' Cf. Pliit. Mor. 
 415 c, where the verse is quoted. — to 'Ho-i6Seiov : frag. 183 Ezach. — 74p: rot 
 Hesiod. 
 
 611 ToO Aids : the words are an interlinear in V over 610, which omits them 
 from the text. They seem, therefore, a mere correction of the text, but the 
 interlinear in r indicates that they were once part of a note on iroXXi? in 611.

 TTiiXiv is used in the sense of iirlata, of those who are rowing hows on — and are 
 told to reverse the stroke. In the part of the note that follows, TrdXiv is given the 
 sense of again. — cirl : di/ri Wright. Cf. Schol. 2. — qjo-as : Suidas. The copyists 
 have given the word rough treatment, whatever it was. Cf. the Collation. A 
 new metaphorical interpretation of iirav&Kpovaai is here proposed in which avaKpoia 
 is to have the meaning that attaches to it as a musical term. The original note 
 may have employed some form of this word where we now have ivr ivlaas in V. 
 Qu. ^ ' dvaKpouirdiMevos irpi To&rov iiravaPaXoO Kal ttoKiv yffov,' strike up a second time

 719 Suid. oloiml. — opvis : the repeated use of the word ipvts in 719-721 
 makes it unhkely that the original commentator wrote olavoi$ (MSS.) in this 
 note. Such lack of precision is less credible than that the word should have 
 been changed in transmission. It should be noted that Suidas has transferred 
 the note to the lemma oliavoi (but nevertheless quotes Scpdirovr 6pviv !) ; he has it 
 again arai/ 6pvi.v. — For the form ipvis, cf. Suid. 6pvi.s ■ nal rb vX-iievvTiKhv roisSpvit,

 The note that follows, naxphv, rb jrvTyoi, found only in V, was doubtless pre- 
 fixed to 723 in the archetype to indicate the etdos of the parabasis which begins

 simply oB;-. The normal expression is found in Schol. 768 ipiirh oiv ktL It 
 is clear that in none of these places the inferential force of oiv belongs to the 
 paraphrase. Whatever form the phrase takes, it signifies he means, then, or so 
 what he means is. 
 
 734 Suid. 7dXtt dpvlBuv. 
 
 737 Suid. XoxMo'o MoCo-a. — The first interpretation lays the stress on 
 Xoxfiala: the nightingale is the chorus's ' own Muse,' because the nightingale 
 haunts the copses. The second interpretation (Didymus's) makes MoCcra the 
 important word : this chorus invokes the nightingale, because it is a chorus of 
 singing birds. Xoxi^iSa and <j)iaveTv, each the last word in its clause, respectively 
 point the contrast. This view assumes that Didymus's interpretation does not 
 precisely agree with the other. Cf. the scholia on 43, 580, 704, etc. 
 
 |i^os <bs opviSos : i.e. here begins a ' bird-song.'' 
 
 739 6 Xd705 . . . iron)ToO : the poet speaks. 
 
 744 AvtI . . . av6p(iira>v : it is men, in fact, who are singing. 
 
 745 The repetition of the note in V is instructive. It first occurs before 
 739 ff. and the scribe of G adopted as lemma Kopv<j>aT(ri t iv dpelais. The note 
 interprets (copi/^ais iv dpelais Xlavl, for Pan haunts not only pa,stures, but also moun- 
 tains, and there too live birds. (Cf. the epithets (piXoipelrris, dpeiipxv^t ipeuiriis, 
 montivagus, etc., applied to Pan, since in the heat of summer shepherds drive 
 their flocks to the mountains. ) v6ixios, if sound, obviously sustains no relation 
 to v6/wvs (' musical strains ') of the text. Perhaps the collocation of IXoxi and 
 v6novs in the text suggested v6iuos to some copyist and this word displaced another

 CalUmachus certainly did not enter " Karapd/tTai " (sic) as the name of a bird 
 in his list. The form seems to be an aural misapprehension of 'KOTapdicT);'' 
 (ot = ri) and this to be a feminine nominative Invented to fit the dative Karappd- 
 KTxi of the poet's text of 887. Similarly pia-xa (MSS.) seems to have been 
 devised as the nominative of paa-Kf. Aristotle vouches for the (coTappd/tTiis,. 
 and the bird named by Aristophanes (paa-Kq.), in 885 must have been 6 /Sao-itas. 
 Cf. Hesych. pajrKas • SpveSv n. The author of the original note is not likely to- 
 have read his CalUmachus carelessly, but the errors might easily have been, 
 committed by a copyist. — irapd KaX\i|idx<a : frag. 100" 15. — IpuSiov : Bentley.

 909 Moucrduv SEpoLirtov : the proper lemma is unequivocally indicated in r' 
 and M, and is confirmed by the error of the scribe of r^, who misread the 
 scholium to the effect that 'M.ova-iuv was to be written Mov<ruiv. In E the scholium 
 is attached to the corresponding phrase tiovaiuiv Bepi-iroi^ts in 913. Why ' some 
 scholars doubted the genuineness of the reading Mova-dwv eepdvinv'' is indicated in 
 the scholium on 913, — the phrase does not occur ' in Homer,' and yet the ' Poet ' 
 affirms that he speaks Kara Tiv°Oiiripov\ This scholium, therefore, irepura-i tikes 
 TauTo, must not be made to apply, with Rutherford, to verses 911-914, eireiTa 
 
 . . "Op,ijpov, nor, with van Leeuwen, to 910, rari t6v "Onripov. Rutherford 
 notes that 9H-914 are not found in A, but their accidental omission from that 
 MS. is due to a familiar error, to which all the scribes must occasionally plead 
 guilty. The verses are read in the other MSS. (VRrEMUBCVpa). Dindorf's 
 numbering of the verses in his Oxford edition of the scholia has misled some 
 scholars in regard to the appertinence of the note Tcpura-d tikes TauTo ; 914 in that 
 edition is 913 of the more recent books. 
 
 911 Suid. SoDXos urn. 
 
 913 iiraSr\ . . . X^veroi : even in Homer (e.g. II. A 321, Od. A 109). 'And 
 the Margites,' the note continues, 'was once believed to be Homer's, and this 
 contains the phrase t/iovaiwv eepdwuv.' This is the phrase in dispute. Cf. the 
 note on 909. 
 
 915 The lemma is established by TE and is inevitable. The note is wrongly 
 placed in VR and M. — Kal : Bothe would omit, but he failed to see the fanci- 
 ful etymological connexion of 6Tpijp6s with Terpiifiipos which the scholiast assumes. 
 Kal, in fact, determines the choice of the reading TerpTni^mv (EP) in preference 
 to Terpinnivov (VRrM).

 and in the next note {TpoTreputTraijAvwi KTi.), the MSS. all treat the word, as a sub- 
 stantive and accent it irapievaa, in agreement with the doctrine there enunci- 
 ated. (Cf. Arcad. 121 ii.) This scholium, therefore, cannot be cited as 
 authority for the distinction between irapS^veia, as 'songs sung by virgins,' 
 and irapffeveia, as 'Songs sung in honor of virgins.' The scholiast gives two 
 definitions, but makes no distinction in accent. The text of 919, in all the MSS., 
 has nap6eveTa. Cf. Suid. irapeeveia. — kjIkXio 8e : the scholiast sometimes returns, 
 in this manner, to a preceding item in order to give it fresh definition. Cf. the

 of Pindar quoted by the scholiast give the full point after ir^irarai and add tuv- 
 5e (EP) to d/c\£7)s e/Sa, assuming that words have been lost. Brunck, abandoning

 944 The scholium on 944 (See the Transcript and Collation) is disturbed in 
 the MSS. The note SffKov . . . o-TroXdSi occurs hoth here and in the note on 941 
 in TB and the Princeps ; in V and M it is found only at the end of the scholium 
 on 941, wrongly attached to the explanation of the verses quoted from Pindar; 
 K omits it altogether. Similarly the words arifidrepos aviip, which are an inter- 
 pretation of dicXeTjs £/3a as used hy Pindar, baldly follow, in the scholium on 
 944, the explanation of Aristophanes' s parody of Pindar's verse. This points 
 to some restoration such as is given above. Cf. M. The words axXef/s (sc. iart) 
 ■i) <rwo\hs S,vcv xtTums oSffa in the scholium are a paraphrase of the words (IkXctis 
 5' €/3a i) (TTToXas iS^-eu x'tukos in the text, where ejSo, as Aristophanes uses it, is 
 difficult. Rutherford holds that the paraphrase differs so slightly from the

 that the poet ' has resorted to metaplasm in using the form Pitp6^o\a, as if from 
 the nominative w06j3oXos,' he implies that the nominative w<^6j3oXos is not known 
 to him. He implies also that he has in mind such metaplastic forms as pupo- 
 /SAXos, vKpo^SXi, vupopbXa (genitive, dative, and accusative) ; otherwise his refer- 
 ence to metaplasm is without meaning. His doctrine may be illustrated as 
 follows. As the metaplasts 0i)Xa|, ^iJXaKos, and ixAprvs, f^dprvpos, yield respec- 
 tively 6 (pu\aK6s and 6 /idprvpos (cf. Herodian ii 747 30), so to >'i0o;86Xos, i/i0oj36Xi,

 confident about the date of the proclamation. Cf . yip in the following clause. 
 The date was uncertain (cf. Schol. Nub. 830, Schol. Ran. 320), although the 
 writer of the preceding scholium on 1073 speaks with decision. — ovScv ^dp

 references to the inroiir^naTa, see Schol. 281 and 556. — Ikcjivyciv: the lacuna is

 these interpretations make tQv Tvpdwoiv a partitive genitive. The compiler of

 XinTCiv vir6vTci)v : the concealed lemma in VR is iirb tov TrXdrous av {oSv R), 
 which in the text stands just under Httuv virSpTuv. A scribe might easily be 
 deceived, in copying, by the similarity in sound of the first words of the two 
 verses (linrap, uir6). The lack of a connective (VR), the repetition of the fact 
 stated in the preceding note on 1128, and the variation in reading (here xaXxoCs, 
 above Soi5pios), all confirm the supposition that a new note begins here.

 lemma. The lemma in the first instance, iJteya\oTrpeTr4a-raTov (which occurs also 
 in RrEM), is inappropriate. It was changed by Musurus to TlpoieviSris Kal

 original reading irayuiyia in the text of 1149, which was early supplanted by 
 iiro7(tf7^o. Cf. CIA II, 834'', line 60 (p. 516) : /xurBuToTs tois rijv yrjv /3aiXo/(oinj(ro(ri

 copies they were grouped by twos, two cola constituting a single verse (t6 h).

 Generally the scholiast does not change the tense of the verb in passing from 
 lemma to paraphrase. Cf. Schol. 1188, 1214, 1225, 1227, 1229, 1245, 1254, 1260, 
 1273, 1281, 1283, etc.

 scholiast's explanation should not condemn the reading. The great variety of 
 explanations of the poet's word-plays in 1287-1289 offered by modern editors 
 shows how uncertain the meaning is. 
 
 us eirl . . . ttireiv : ' when, to be appropriate to birds that are alighting, he

 tion (see the form of the scholium in R as given in the Transcript), that 
 Menippus was called x^^^^'^" because he was a horse-breeder and a horse's 
 'frog' was called xf'^'5'4'', seems remote. The clause xaX KavTriplip {xavrriplf

 iron ' seems possible. Cf . Phot. (rT(|oi • t6 iyKamai lirirov. Eustath. 785 30

 sage in the Aves is cited, show that the note relates to Philocles, and therefore 
 that the lemma in VR is wrong. 
 
 Kol oTi . . . irovT|p6s : oi /idvov in TEP (buiivviiov V) is confirmed by the fol- 
 lowing iXKk Kal (VGrEP). The note is rewritten in R, <j>eovepi)i being a bad 
 substitute for tpavepbv of the other MSS. The xv^X^rii was the Egyptian 
 goose. The original name was probably Egyptian, which popular etymology 
 converted into x'!'"»'^'i'''';?. The word does not occur often in classical literature, 
 but the creature was known. It was obvious, therefore, according to the scho- 
 liast, that the name when applied to Theogenes would carry the connotation 
 stupid ; it was less likely that the force of the second part of the word would 
 be appreciated, and therefore the scholiast emphasizes it. — The scholiast's con- 
 fident assumption that the xi' was a stupid bird is curiously modern.

 the converse usage, cf. Schol. Av. 994, 1273 bis, and 1283.) Didymus, therefore, 
 quotes Ammonius, and the following Si (MSS.) should be deleted, as Schnee 
 suggests; Schnee notes that it is due to the preceding p.iv, whereas the real 
 antithesis to 6 p.iv MSvpxis is found below in 6 Si 2ip.p,axos. — yeXoCus : jocularly.

 separates yEXoiws by full punctuation from both the preceding and the follow- 
 ing words and interprets it to express adverse criticism of the foregoing state- 
 ment. But it is difBoult to see how one could say that Aristophanes here calls 
 Meidias Sprv^ because he bet on quails matched in the ring and yet deny that 
 6pTvi was applied to him ^| iirieirov. Furthermore, this interpretation involves 
 a harsh asyndeton after yeXolws. — vipu : Leopardus, who hazarded also wipyie-

 1367 irp^irei : MSS., anticipating Portus's correction of the vulgate. 
 
 oTpoTtvovTai : i.e. ol p.i(r0o^6poi, implied in the context. The next clause, 
 Kwp.ij)Set Si KTi., shows that this scholiast (rightly or wrongly) thinks of this 
 ■young man — who is certainly excellent material for a freebooter — not as an 
 Athenian, but as a mercenary in Athenian employ. The scholiast's interpreta- 
 tion may have been affected by his knowledge of the vicious practice that pre- 
 vailed in the fourth century, but nevertheless this practice began early. At 
 the date of this play, p.ur$o<f>ipot were serving under the Athenians in Sicily 
 (Thuc. vli 57), and iu<rdo^6poi were recruited by foreign states even in Athe- 
 nian territory as early as 483 e.g. (Thuc. i 35). Rutherford's interpretation 
 of the scholium, "they (the Athenians) are paid for military service at a 
 higher rate than any other state," seems to be erroneous. The two scholia 
 on 1367 assume, as we should expect, different points of view in interpreting 
 lu<rBo(l>opCov of the text.

 admirably fits this bird, which is variously called the golden, yellow, or green

 1410 The first scholium requires the lemma ipvieit rives oiSe {Here comes a 
 bird !). The scholiast thinks that the sycophant, as he enters, is singing the 
 hurden of his own poverty, — els ttji* ^outoS irevlav q,Suv. — (ruKOi|>dvTi]S . . . 
 tXBcv : a. verb is not required in this formula. Cf. Sepiiruv, w's 5^ rivis <j>aai.v,

 V SiaMyerat Kri. Schol. Nub. 1214. Cf. also Schol. Av. 2 ; Thesm. 296 ; Ran. 
 551, 830 ; Eccl. 977, 1065. The scholiast, however, when he notes the introit 
 of a speaker, generally expresses the verb. There is, e.g., a second scholium 
 on Ran. 503, which reads Sepdwaiva Ilcpirc^iinjt X^« rauTa irpis tAc SokWox cxovTa 
 Ti]v \eovTiiv (cod. V). The verb is often Ipxerat : Schol. Ach. 729, 860, 959, 1018, 
 1048, 1071, 1084 ; Pac. 1210 ; Av. 904 ; Lys. 387. Sometimes i^^pxerat (Schol. 
 Pac. 236) ; irpoffipxerai. (Av. 1035) ; or irpoipxtrai (Eccl. 1). Other appropriate 
 verbs expressing motion occur : '^XBov (Schol. Av. 1565) ; irpbaeunv (Av. 1337) ; 
 vapaylverai (Vesp. 1417) ; vapayiyovev (Plut. 1171) ; inroarpiiiei (Av. 1271) ; or 
 irapiTovrai. (Vesp. 248). The verb may be simply X^ei: Schol. Nub. 25 (where 
 
 V has iToipeiyyerai) ; Vesp. 903 ; Pac. 180 (^o-tik . . . X^uv) ; Ran. 38, 603,

 1468 The lemma of the second scholium cannot be K&Trei^ 6 jn^v TrXef, as 
 giyen in the MSS., since the scholium does not interpret this verse. It does 
 interpret the preceding diTrws 6,v . . . b f^i/os, and it is evidently an explanation 
 of these words msMie from the point of view of the defendant, which — it should 
 he noted — is that also of the text of the play. The first scholium on 1458 
 explains the facts from the point of view of the prosecuting sycophant. — tvo . . . 
 PpdSovs: in order that the alien, being still there, may fall liable also to a second

 other indications, such as the tense of dMvai, that Androtion was not quoting

 the same metaphor ,in Ar. Eccl. 732 : Sttws 6.v ivTerpiniiiprj Kavrjipopxis. The meal 
 sifted through the kuvouv, which contained the groats and implements of sacri- 
 fice (At. Pac. 948), and powdered the hair of the KavritpSpos. — €v«Tpi|»|Uvii : it 
 la impossible to determine, without the context, what may have been the origi- 
 nal form of ivrerpimjAvois (MSS.), which is probably due to attraction. It seems 
 natural to assume a domestic scene and to suppose that the first speaker has 
 mentioned, in some relation not now determinable, a Kivaxipa (of. Ar. Eccl. 
 730 ff.) or possibly a amiri (cf. Ar. Plut. 806). The second speaker interrupts 
 him with a reference to his own sly theft ; the 5i0po0Apos (i.e. the pAyeipos or 
 the To/i£os),he says, never noticed when he stole and ate some of the groats. 
 Other forms have been suggested : ivrerpinnhos Melneke ; ^vTcrpiju/i^rai (in the 
 Thesaurus) ; iyrerpiniiivoi Bothe. — The assumption of two speakers Is due to

 i.e. 1553 ff. Cf . also Schol. Lys. 1189 : diro/toTri} ^o-rt tov S\\ov xopou (i.e. 1043- 
 1071), us Tap' EiJTriXiSi iv KiXo|i. Both in Av. 1553 and Lys. 1189 the connexion 
 is indicated by S4. In Schol. Nub. 44 and 358 the scholiast speaks of the poet's 
 ^fiJ7T;i7is of his own language. Cf. the use of i^yeta^Sai in Schol. Pae. 788, 
 Schol. Vesp. 680, and of ipp.iiveieiv in Schol. Av. 1058. The words TaSra i^-Ziyrids 
 iari Twv ivwTipw are not a marginal direction of the librarius referring the fol- 
 lowing scholium to a lemma on the preceding folio. They are found in all the 
 MSS., and a mere copyist's note originally appropriate to a single MS. is not 
 likely to have been thus perpetuated ; furthermore, the phraseology for this sort 
 of direction is fixed, fi)T« iwurOiv, fii^ei tA Ktl/xevor 6irur8cv, o-xiXm t^s 6irur6ci'

 Fliokinger has observed with proper insistence, does not occur in the literature 
 of the fifth century. Hermippus, in a play, jestingly illustrates its action by a 
 phrase drawn from the theatre, as if this part of the action of his play were a 
 real occurrence, and likens big, biu:ly (cWkttjs) Peisander, who was at this time 
 a very real and disturbing factor in Athenian politics, to an dvrfKiTiis. Cf. 6iiokIv-

 implies that Aristophanes's assumption of a dioastio system in heaven is a jest.

 1678 ouTus, et |i.T| 6pvi6id,££i, : Didymus, commenting on his own interpreta- 
 tion of the barbarian god's jargon. 
 
 1680 I have proposed in Classical Philology, I (1906), p. 177, to read in 
 1681, a much discussed verse : 
 
 " el /iil '^^aal^ei y"' iSairep al %cXtS6»e5 " — 
 
 and have endeavored to show that this was the text that the Alexandrian com- 
 mentators had before them. But they naturally mistook the meaning of (Smrffei 
 C- rhyfhmizes,'' uses rhythms), — a word invented by Aristophanes with intention 
 of comic efiect, — and interpreted it, as in the first part of the scholium on 1680, 
 by jSa5(f« or ivax<opeT. — avaxupEiv : diroxiapety Rutherford. — xcXiSdvas rois 
 Pappdpovs : for the order of words cf . the following extract from Herodian. — 
 'HpoiSiavos £v T§ irp(&Tu : x^'^'S'^" tA ipvcov Kal XeXiSiix o /3(£p/3apos, XeXiSAras yip 
 ip<revi.Kws rois ^ap^dpovs lav iv' 0/i<f>d\ri <pri<rlv tas Kal Alo'x'S^os t6 Pappaplj^eiv X'^'" 
 SoWfeip ipTialv. Herodian i 25 i8 (Lentz). Meineke suggested in an unpublished 
 note that the words rois pap^dpovs were part of the quotation. If this is right, 
 Herodian' s interpretation of the half -verse from the Omphale is mistaken; there 
 was no such folk as the Chelidonians, designated by the masculine noun Xe\iS6ws. 
 Ion had called the barbarians 'chatterers' (xeXiSiras). The scholiast followed 
 Herodian so far as to construe pappdpovs adjectively vdth xe^'Siras. — els to Pd- 
 o-iv : in respect of (qitod attinet ad) the part ^aai-. The scholiast sees that in some 
 way the point of the poet's jest lies in Poseidon's insistence that the word must 
 be pronounced /Sao-rXtraO. — to TeXcvratov KpuT'^tras Kri. : in explanation of 1682,

 even '■go'' as other birds, especially the ' walkers ' — such as the cock, that ua-irep

The following collection supplements the body of Old Scholia given on the 
 preceding pages. See Introd. 83 ff. It includes all notes in TEMP on the 
 Aves not there reported, and also all in UC that, at least in form, are likewise 
 independent of the tradition of the Old Scholia on this play. 
 
 These notes are given unedited and in full, except longish solitary notes in 
 the Princeps, including the Triclinian metrical commentary, which are simply 
 indicated. Cf. on 1, 7, 54, 55, 66, 158, 160, 195, etc. For these the reader is 
 referred either to Dindorf's Oxford edition of Aristophanes IV {Scholia Graeca 
 in codiciims aucta et emendata) iii 146 ff., or to Diibner's reprint, with some 
 additions, of Dindorf's collection (Scholia Graeca in AHstophanem) 210 ft., 
 478 ff. In these longer notes, variations between the text of the Princeps and 
 that of the two editions mentioned are indicated by printing the variant part 
 in full as it occurs in the Princeps. 
 
 These notes are mainly interlinear. The lemma, however indicated, is here 
 printed in heavy-face type, except in case of interlinear notes written over an 
 entire verse, when the simple numeral designating the verse is given. An aster- 
 isk attached to a symbol signifies that the note is the continuation of a note in 
 the original.

 1 References are made to the Scholia by verse, to the Arguments by page and 
 line (Arabic numerals), to the Introduction by page (Roman numerals). 
 
 2 In addition to glosses, which are marked with the asterisk, this Index ex- 
 hibits rather fully the technical language of the critics and grammarians and, 
 in general, the formulae of scholiastic literature, so far as these are found in the 
 notes on the Aves. The linguistic phenomena of post-classical Greek — new 
 words, words in new or unusual meanings, and, so far as practicable, syntax — 
 are also included.
