[103] Cp. vii. 152.[104] {elasai}, which may be intransitive, "rushed into every kind ofevil."[105] {stadioi}.[106] {krossas}.[107] {bomidas}.[108] i.e. the three small pyramids just to the East of the greatpyramid.[109] {oute gar k.t.l.}, "for there are no underground chambers," etc.Something which was in the mind of the writer has been omittedeither by himself or his copyists, "and inferior to it also inother respects, for," etc. unless, as Stein supposes, we have herea later addition thrown in without regard to the connexion.[110] {touto megathos}, "as regards attaining the same size," butprobably the text is corrupt. Stein reads {to megathos} in hislater editions.[111] Or, "Philition."[112] {to theo}, the goddess Leto, cp. i. 105.[113] {suntakhunein auton ton bion}: some MSS. and Editors read {auto}for {auton}, "that heaven was shortening his life."[114] More literally, "bidding him take up the blood-money, whowould."

Some Editors read{'Podopios}, others {'Podopi}.[116] {antion de autout tou neou}.[117] {epaphroditoi ginesthai}.[118] {katekertomese min}: Athenæus says that Sappho attacked themistress of Charaxos; but here {min} can hardly refer to any one
