^{page 181 note 1} Cf. Mazon, , Aristophane, p. 177Google Scholar. The generalization is borne out by examination of Aristophanes' extant plays.

^{page 182 note 1} Kock prints this with an interrogation mark, following Jacobs, . Addit. 261Google Scholar, but in view of Comedy's constant gibes at drunken women I venture to suggest that the lines have more point if taken as above.

^{page 182 note 2} Cf. Menander's Περικειρομένη, Plautus' Aulularia, Trinummus, Rudens.

^{page 182 note 3} Platonius XIII, 40.

^{page 183 note 1} Kock refers this to the Exodos and quotes Euripides' Cyclops v. 708–9 in support, but there is little verbal similarity between the two extracts and the Cratinus fragment would be inappropriate at the Exodos. A poet does not hide the identity of his chorus till the very moment when they are leaving the orchestra.

^{page 183 note 2} Cf. Equites v. 242 ff., Nubes v. 323 ff., Aves v. 260 ff.

^{page 183 note 3} Cf. Aves v. 294 ff., Thesmophoriazusae v. 280–1.

^{page 184 note 1} Cf. Equites, Nubes, Aves, Lysistrata for the normal usage, Vespae and Pax for analogy to this.

^{page 184 note 5} This may be replaced by an epirrhemation of two tristichs (Lysistrata) delivered by the two agonists or omitted entirely (Nubes, Ranae, Ecclesiazusae, Plutus).

^{page 185 note 1} The scantiness of the fragments unfortunately admits of no distinction between Agon and Subagon.

^{page 185 note 6} Frag. 194, Nubes v. 555, Schol. V. The fragment is inconclusive, but the evidence of the Scholiast makes it practically certain that she did appear in the play.

^{page 186 note 1} Athenaeus I, 21e.

^{page 186 note 2} Cf. Nubes v. 529. Frag. 198 shows the ‘improbus’ airing his sophistical knowledge, while frags. 205, 206, 221 show his effeminate way of life.

^{page 186 note 3} Galen, Lex Hippocrat. prooem. v. 706 in quoting frag. 222 says that it is the father who is putting the questions to his son.
