[7] This is the only sense that can be made of ενθανειν, and this sense seems strained: Brunck proposes εντακηναι for ενθανειν γε. See Note [A]. [8] λιμνη is used for the _sea_ in Troades 444; as also in Iliad Ν. 21, and Odyssey Γ. 1. and in many other passages of Homer. [9] The construction is η πορευσεις με ενθα νασων; for εις εκεινην των νασων, ενθα. [10] κεκλημαι for ειμι, not an unusual signification. Hippol. 2, θεα κεκλημαι Κυπρις. [11] _When she perceived it,_ εφρασθη, συνηκεν, εγνω, ενοησεν. _Hesych_. [12] The Gods beneath he despised, by casting him out without a tomb; the Gods above, as the guardians of the rites of hospitality. [13] _Whatever was due_, either on the score of friendship, or as an equivalent for his care and protection. [14] Musgrave proposes to read προμισθιαν for προμηθιαν: the version above is in accordance with the scholiast and the paraphrast. [15] See note on Medea 338. [16] The story of the daughters of Danaus is well known. [17] Of this there are two accounts given in the Scholia. The one is, that the women of Lemnos being punished by Venus with an ill savor, and therefore neglected by their husbands, conspired against them and slew them. The other is found in Herodotus, Erato, chap. 138. see also Æsch. Choephoræ, line 627, ed. Schutz. [18] Polymestor was guilty of two crimes, αδικιας and ασεβειας, for he had both violated the laws of men, and profaned the deity of Jupiter Hospitalis. Whence Agamemnon, v. 840, hints that he is to suffer on both accounts. και βουλομαι θεων θ' ‛ουνεκ ανοσιον ξενον, και του δικαιον, τηνδε σοι δουναι δικην. The Chorus therefore says, _Ubi contingit eundem et Justitiæ et Diis esse addictum, exitiale semper malum esse_; or, as the learned Hemsterheuyse has more fully and more elegantly expressed, it, _Ubi_, id est, _in quo_, vel _in quem cadit et concurrit, ut ob crimen commissum simul et humanæ justitiæ et Deorum vindictæ sit obnoxius, ac velut oppignoratus; illi certissimum exitium imminet_. This sense the words give, if for ου, we read ‛ου, i.e. in the sense of ‛οπου. MUSGRAVE. Correct Dindorf's text to ‛ου. [19] συμπεσεειν _in unum coire, coincidere_. In this sense it is used also, Herod. Euterpe, chap. 49. [20] The verbal adjective in τος is almost universally used in a passive sense; ‛υποπτος, however, in this place is an exception to the rule, as are also, καλυπτης, Soph. Antig. 1011, μεμπτος, Trachin. 446. [21] Perhaps the preferable way is to make κακοισιν agree with ανθρωποις understood; that the sense may be, _You are a bad man to talk of your advantage as a plea for having acted thus_. [22] Θανουσα δ' η ζωσ' ενθαδ' εκπλησω βιον; a similar expression occurs in the Anthologia. σιγων παρερχου τον ταλαιπωρον βιον, αυτος σιωπηι τον χρονον μιμουμενος, λαθων δε και βιωσον. ει δε μη, θανων.
