40 [ {genee}. To save the chronology some insert {trite} before {genee}, but this will be useless unless the clause {kata de ton auton khronon tou kreteros te arpage} be omitted, as it is also proposed to do. Periander is thought to have died about 585 B.C.; but see v. 95.] 41 [ The MSS. add {eontes eoutoisi}, and apparently something has been lost. Stein and others follow Valckenär in adding {suggenees}, "are ever at variance with one another in spite of their kinship."] 42 [ {noo labon}: the MSS. have {now labon kai touto}.] 43 [ {iren zemien}.] 44 [ {tauta ta nun ekhon presseis}: the form of sentence is determined by its antithesis to {ta agatha ta nun ego ekho}.] 45 [ {basileus}, because already destined as his father's successor.] 46 [ {sphea}: the MSS. have {sphe} here, and in the middle of the next chapter.] 4601 [ The Lacedemonians who were not Dorians had of course taken part in the Trojan war.] 47 [ {leuka genetai}.] 48 [ {prutaneia}.] 49 [ {lokhon}.] 50 [ {prosiskhon}: some read {proseskhon}, "had put in."] 51 [ {kai ton tes Diktunes neon}: omitted by some Editors.] 52 [ {orguias}.] 53 [ {stadioi}.] 54 [ {kai}: the MSS. have {kata}.] 55 [ {en te gar anthropeie phusi ouk enen ara}.] 56 [ Or possibly, "the most necessary of those things which remain to be done, is this."] 57 [ {apistie polle upekekhuto}, cp. ii. 152.] 58 [ Or perhaps Phaidymia.] 59 [ {Gobrues} or {Gobrues}.] 60 [ {'Intaphrenea}: this form, which is given by at least one MS. throughout, seems preferable, as being closer to the Persian name which it represents, "Vindafrana," cp. v. 25. Most of the MSS. have {'Intaphernea}.] 61 [ {phthas emeu}.] 62 [ {ti}: some MSS. have {tis}, "in order that persons may trust (themselves) to them more."] 63 [ i.e. "let him be killed on the spot."] 64 [ {ta panta muria}, "ten thousand of every possible thing," (or, "of all the usual gifts"; cp. ch. 84 {ten pasan doreen}).] 65 [ {dethen}.] 66 [ {oideonton ton pregmaton}: "while things were swelling," cp. ch. 127: perhaps here, "before things came to a head."] 6601 [ {andreona}, as in ch. 121.] 67 [ {ana te edramon palin}, i.e. they ran back into the room out of which they had come to see what was the matter; with this communicated a bedchamber which had its light only by the open door of communication.] 6701 [ {magophonia}.] 68 [ Or, "after it had lasted more than five days," taking {thorubos} as the subject of {egeneto}. The reason for mentioning the particular number five seems to be contained in the passage quoted by Stein from Sextus Empiricus, {enteuphen kai oi Person kharientes nomon ekhousi, basileos par' autois teleutesantos pente tas ephexes emeras anomian agein}.] 69 [ See vi. 43.] 70 [ {isonomie}, "equal distribution," i.e. of civil rights.] 71 [ {ouden oikeion}: the MSS. have {ouden oud' oikeion}, which might be translated "anything of its own either."]
