^{page 165 note 1} I take this opportunity—as I am not likely to publish anything on the Homeric Hymns for some months to come—to make an observation or two on the interesting discussion that has been going on in these pages.

I regret that Prof. Tyrrell (Feb., p. 28) thinks that no one shares his confidence in the soundness of his ἕσσ∘, Herm. 33. The Oxford editors did what they could in this sense by printing it and also(Dem. 12) in their text.

Mr. Agar's pious prayer (p. 31) has been heard. I do not rely on Mr. Platt's metrical canon. But the ‘ analogical but unauthenticated’ ⋯νεαρ is likely to appear in the next Oxford edition unless in the meantime Mr. Agar provides something better than ⋯νειαρ κα⋯ π∘λ⋯ χ⋯ρμα. A place will be found for ∘ὐδ⋯ σε λ⋯σει, Apoll. 53.

^{page 165 note 2} The edition absorbs L.'s Königsberg programmes on the same subject, 1894.
