[16\6: ~muei=n d' ei=nai toi=s ou=si Kêru/kôn kai\ Eumolpidô=n~ as the law appoints, _CIA._ i, 1 (more exactly _Supp._ p. 3 f.), ll. 110-11. Thus the ~mu/êsis~ belonged exclusively to the members of the ~ge/nê~ of the Eumolpidai and Kerykes (but to all the members, not merely those serving as officers at the particular festival concerned). Cf. Dittenberger, _Hermes_, 20, 31 f. The Emperor Hadrian, in order to be able to hold the festival in a more sumptuous manner, had himself made ~a/rchôn~ of the ~Eumolpidô=n ge/nos~, having already been made a member of that ~ge/nos~: ins. from Eleusis, _Ath. Mitt._ 1894, p. 172.--There is no reference to the Eleusinia in what is said about the ~muei=n~ of a priestess belonging to the family of the Phyllidai in Phot. ~Phillei=dai~: see Töpffer, _Att. Geneal._ 92.--The exx. of ~mu/êsis~ collected by Lobeck (_Agl._ 28 ff.) do not contradict this law: in the case of Lysias who ~hupe/scheto muê/sein~ the hetaira Metaneira [D.] 59, 21, ~muei=n~ merely means defray the cost of initiation (quite correctly explained by Müller, review of _Aglaoph._, _Kl. Schr._ ii, 56). So, too, in the case of Theoph. (ii, p. 473 K.) ~emuê/thên theoi=s~, i.e. at the expense of my master.] [17\6: The ~pro/rrêsis~ of the Basileus and the proclamations of the hierophant and dadouchos excluded all ~andropho/noi~ from those taking part in the mysteries: Lob., _Agl._ 15. They were also, it is true, excluded from all other sacred rites: Lob. 17. Even ~toi=s en aiti/a|~ the Archon gave warning ~ape/chesthai mustêri/ôn kai\ tô=n a/llôn nomi/môn~ (Poll. 8, 90): in fact, the person accused of murder was in any case, as "unclean", excluded from _all_ ~no/mima~: Antipho, vi, 36 (in _AB._ 310, 8 read ~nomi/môn~).] {233} [18\6: ~_ho/sioi_ mu/stai~, Ar., _Ran._ 336. (So, too, the Mystai of the Orphic mysteries are called ~hoi ho/sioi~: Pl., _Rp._ 363 C; Orph., _H._ 84, 3.) ~ho/sios~ is probably here used in its primitive sense = "clean" (~ho/siai chei=res~, etc.). [Pl.] _Axioch._ 371 D refers to ~ta\s hosi/ous agchistei/as~ of the Eleus. Mystai. In the same way ~hosiou=n~ was used of ritual purification and expiation: ~phugai=sin hosiou=n~ the murder, E., _Or._ 515; ~hosiou=n~ the returned homicide, D. 23, 73; (of the Bacchic mysteries ~ba/kchos eklê/thên hosiôthei/s~, E. _fr._ 472, 15). Thus the ~ho/sioi~ are identical with the _~kekatharme/noi~_ as the initiated are called: Pl. _Phd._ 69 C, and frequently. It would be hazardous to suppose that the Mystai called themselves ~ho/sioi~ as the _only_ pious and righteous people (though that is what ~ho/sios a/nthrôpos~ and the like mean elsewhere). Their spiritual self-satisfaction hardly went as far as that, and indeed they did not ascribe so much _personal_ merit to themselves at all.]
