In that case {oia erxan} would bean exclamation, "What evils they did to us, . . . things which yeall know well, I think."8. {touton mentoi eineka}: it is hardly possible here to give{mentoi} its usual meaning: Stein in his latest edition reads{touton men toinun}.9. {suneneike}: Stein reads {suneneike se}, "supposing that thou artworsted."10. {ep andri ge eni}, as opposed to a god.11. {akousesthai tina psemi ton k.t.l.}, "each one of those who areleft behind."12. {kai Kurou}, a conjectural emendation of {tou Kurou}. The text ofthe MSS. enumerates all these as one continuous line of ascent. Itis clear however that the enumeration is in fact of two separatelines, which combine in Teïspes, the line of ascent through thefather Dareios being, Dareios, Hystaspes, Arsames, Ariamnes,Teïspes, and through the mother, Atossa, Cyrus, Cambyses, Teïspes.13. {kai mala}: perhaps, "even."13a. Lit. "nor is he present who will excuse thee."14. Lit. "my youth boiled over."15. Lit. "words more unseemly than was right."16. {all oude tauta esti o pai theia}.17. {peplanesthai}.18. {autai}: a correction of {autai}.19. {se de epiphoitesei}: the better MSS. have {oude epiphoitesei},which is adopted by Stein.
