^{page 41 note 3} Lang makes a new paragraph atΔЄîδμή apparently regarding the passage above translated as an introductory comment on Hesiod, not (as I take it) as a concluding comment on Homer. I think it clear that the treatment of Hesiod does not begin till the next sentence, πάλіν τоίνuʋ etc, where τοίνʋν performs the same function as on the other two occasions on which it appears in the treatise–namely, to mark the resumption of allegorical interpretation after a critical digression suggested by the previous allegories (c. 18 ad init., and 32 ad intt.).

^{page 41 note 4} The ὡςοîƖαι may be a hint that Cornutus is here developing a personal point of view not in consonance with bis Stoic authorities.

^{page 41 note 5} 6 There is much truth in this criticism. Indeed, Professor G. Murray is saying much the same thing as Cornutus when he remarks (Four Stages of Greek Religion, p. 95) that Hesiod seems some-times to be turning allegory back into myth. Gomperz, Cf.also, G.T.
