1 The tentative suggestion (liii) ‘Perhaps, too, in the Muse's reproach of Athena we might see a reflex of the bitterness and pain which led to Euripides' departure from Athens’ does not seem likely. It is a personal complaint, accentuated by the traditional commonplace about Attica as the home of the mysteries.

P. is right in discounting attempts to put the play into relation with the founding of Amphipolis. It was for Athens long a point of vital interest.
