^{page 33 note 1} To connect the troch. dim. catalect., not an exclusively or typically tragic metre, with βμβοςτραγικς is, of course, nonsense. So too is the suggestion of Müller, (Eumenides, p. 44)Google Scholar that the metre was called ληκθιον ‘from the smoothness and lubricity with which it runs, like drops of oil from a flask’.

^{page 37 note 8} The words ληκ. Mοɛσα have been supplied by Schneider from the schol. on Hephaest. vi to fill a lacuna of 14 letters in the text. The fragment of Callimachus is given by him as ἤ (ἤ?) τις τραγῳδς μοcomflex;σα ληκɛθζοɛσα but whether ἥ or ἤ is read, τις seems weak. Did Callimachus write τρς τραγῳδς, with the τρς not only strengthening the adjective but also alluding to the production of tragedies in trilogies?

^{page 39 note 5} Rogers takes them to be oil-pots buried with the dead, comparing l. 538, but πιθεῖσα there points to a vase on, not in, the grave.

^{page 39 note 6} When the Ecclesiazusae was produced (393?—see Rogers's Intro.) Attic graves were no longer being decorated with the white-ground lecythstypical of the 5th century but with marble lecyths or στλαι with pictures of white lecyths painted on them, but the above interpretation is not thereby affected.
