^{page 279 note 3} In his 1852 edition (p. 171) Sheppard proposed the palaeographically neat διαθεῖναι (a conjecture that was twice rediscovered—by Foss for his 1858 edition, and by Naber in Mnem. xx N.S. [1892], 334, whose closing remark in the circumstances is deliciously ironic, ‘admirabile est tantalum uitium per tot saecula non potuisse corrigi’), but the normal Greek idiom is τ⋯ς Φ⋯φους θεῖναι, not διαθεῖναι, as Navarre pointed out in his 1924 Commentaire (cf. Theoph. Char. 23, Dem. xviii. 229; Galiano prints τιθ⋯ναι accordingly in his recent edition). Neither Ast's διαθεῖν (tentatively, in his 1816 edition), nor Pauw's διοικεῖν, nor Bücheler's διελθεῖν deserves to be mentioned in a modern apparatus.

^{page 279 note 4} αὐτῷ here will be indirect reflexive (K.-G. i. 563 f.; Diels's conjecture αὐτῷ in his 1909 edition is strictly unnecessary, which is not to say that it must be wrong); tr. ‘to write it into the account for him’. Theophrastus does not say whether the arrogant man is the creditor or the debtor in this transaction, since that is totally irrelevant to the point. It is the method of the calculation, not its end product, that exemplifies ὐπερηφαν⋯α.
