offerings.

1239.

Όπως μή σε γένος πανώλεθρον

Διὸς μακέλλη πᾶν ἀναστρέψῃ δίκη.

I think it should be

Διὸς μακέλλη τῶν ἀναστρέψῃ δίκη.

Μακελλη in the Nominative Cafe, δίκη in the Dative, or Ablative. The Tranflator understood it thus.

1271.

Ω Πειπέταιρ ̓, ὦ μακαρί ̓, ὦ σοφώτατε,

Ω κλεινότατο, ὦ σοφων ̓, ὦ γλαφυρώτατε,
Το Τρισμακαρι

Σοφώτατε twice over, is not to be endured. Read,
Ὦ κλεινότατ ̓, ὦ Τρισοφωτατ ̓, ὦ γλαφυρώτατε.

Γέλωτα παρέχω τοῖς κόραξιν ἐσιῶν.

"SUIDAS ex hoc loco obfervat 16 is apud Græcos aliquando cum dativo conftrui. quod notandum, quia rarum." Kufier.

Either I am miftaken, or they are mistaken both of them. The conftruction is, va μn waρéxw γέλωτα τοῖς κόραξιν, ἑσιῶν [αυτός.] σε Left I fhould have the crows feaft upon me, and laugh over my carcafe."

The laughter of the Crows, which perhaps offended Kufter, is proper enough, and in the comic style.

HESIO D.

Θ Ε Ο Γ. 29.

Ὣς ἔφασαν κραι μεγάλο Διος ἀρτιέπειαι.
Καὶ μοι σκῆπτρον ἔδον, δάφνης ἐριθηλέος όζον,
Δρέψαθαι, θηητόν.

Sic dixerunt filie Jovis magni veridica,

Et mihi fceptrum dederunt, Lauri perviridis ramum, Decerpere mirandum.

Εδοσαν

Έδωσαν δρεψαθαι, dederunt decerpere. But I think it would be much better Agrbaras decerpentes ramum mihi dederunt:-" decerptum ramum dederunt."

There is an old epigram in the Anthologia, cited and commended by Le Clerc in his notes on Hefiod, which favours, and feems to confirm my conjecture.

Ανται ποιμαίνοντα μεσημβρινα μήλα σε Μέσαι
Εδρακον εν κραναοις φρεσιν, Ησιοδέ

Καί σοι καλλιπέτηλον ἐρυσσάμεναι περὶ πᾶσαι
Ωρεξαν Δάφνης ἱερὸν ἀκρέμονα.

Ipfa pafcentem meridie oves Mufæ

Viderunt te in afperis montibus, Hefiode :

Et tibi pulchra folia habentem decerpentes omnes
Porrexerunt Lauri facrum ramum.

Ib. 194.

Ἐκ δ' ἔβη αιδοίη καλὴ θεὸς· αμφι δε ποιη
Ποσσιν ὑπὸ ῥαδινοῖσιν αἐξελο.

Pulcherrimi verfus. Sic Homerus: Il. I. 347.

Τοῖσι δ ̓ ὑπὸ Χθὼν διὰ φύεν νεοθηλέα ποίην,

Λωτον θ ̓ ἑρσηεντα, ἰδὲ κρόκον, ἠδ ̓ ὑάκινθον.
Πυκνὸν καὶ μαλακόν.

Ib. 233.

Νηρέα τ' αψευδέα, καὶ ἀληθέα γείνατο Πόντος

Πρεσβύτατον παίδων· αυταρ καλέκσι γέροντα,
Ούνεκα νημερτής τε καὶ ἤπιος.

But the verfe is certainly right.
