^{page 125 note 1} That Aristides lived later than Cicero, whom he mentions, and may be later than Plotinus, scarcely affects the value of his evidence, since his book is a compilation from older writers.

^{page 131 note 3} As given the scale may be incomplete, but I am unwilling to rush into useless conjectures. It would be easy to suggest that the octave was completed by the upper E, as the words κ τς ѵαλоγíας seem to imply. The reader who compares this scale with the Dorian of Aristides will notice that the scale of Aristides would descend to D; but the significance of that fact has already been discussed (J.H.S., 1920, pp. 29–30).
