    Lines 114-115 are bracketed as a duplication of 94-95, and
    accordingly 112-113 are inserted before 94-95, where 113
    corresponds excellently with 93; 116-117 are bracketed as
    another form of 67-68 (cf. 248), and accordingly 118 finds
    its proper place after 68. Cf. “Repetitions in Empedokles,”
    _Classical Review_, Jan. 1898.
