Not illustrated. 1908 Excerpt: ...between diciove$ and dicis Hesychius has the following glosses: aKTjprj' daBevrj, owe eTrireTay/xeva. aKifpi' KaXov. d/ctpti;' v)(yof. cuctpos' 6 Bopptis. u-KipSis' evXaBas, drpefj-w;. The first two, being out of alphabetical order should of course be read a-Kipfj and dxipl, and we should also read as has been suggested itriTtTafieva. Of the five glosses only the first and the last could conceivably explain this passage; and the first, though borne out by Hoffmann's Compendium III 57 urxyr) Kdi daBevq'i, see his Gr. Dial. 2.

I would therefore read in all these four passages not orvypos but (rTVfivos, of the hair 'on end, ' 'tousled, ' 'dishevelled.' Now for 11. 75 and 76. Parallelism is a marked feature both of the whole poem and of this passage in particular (with TrodeZ Kal (ttv/j.vov "abwvip cf. above Xe/crpov eot To abv xal veicpos 'xscovk). The context calls aloud here for a parallelism with 77 and 78, i.e. something of the nature of an imperative; besides, it is absurd to say 'throw flowers upon him; they, like him, are dead.'
