Similarly we should read ou8' IT' in II. 15. 709., 17. 42., 21. 248.,
22. 300., 23. 622, 730., 24. 52, Od. 12. 198. In such a matter
manuscript authority is evidently of no weight, and it will be
found that the MSS. often have 8e T' where the editors have
already corrected 8' IT' (e.g. in II. I. 573., 2. 344., 12. 106, Od.
2. 115., ii. 380., 21. 1 86., 24. 401). In II. ii. 767 the editions
have v&'C 8e T Zvbov, but all MSS. v&'C 8e evbov so :
perhaps we
may correct II. 21. 456 v&'C 8e r' ax^oppot K[OJJ.V. Perhaps In
