page 9 note 1 These lists do not include the following readings of c p, which disagree with the account of A given or implied by the Teubner edition of 1902, but which my MSS. show to be predominant or universal in: H.

page 14 note 1 At H.F. 536 the lemma of the commentary agrees with the error of c p multis (for mutis), though Treveth apparently interprets mutis, ‘quod dum gelatur non facit collisionem tumultuosam cum litoribus’.

page 14 note 2 This list shows how the text of Soc. etc. is partly dependent on, partly independent of, the reading of T.

page 18 note 1 If my information concerning Phoen. 115, Med. 168, Ag. 216, H.O. 1002 is correct, these partial steps towards the corruption of c are especially instructive.
