Demetr. c. 35, p. 905. d), av fit Karavavelv bonds, Horace's " Exanimat lentus spec- tator, sedulus inflat," is highly ingenious : but the application to fortune appears from the passages of Plutarch to have been made by Demetrius, not found by him in iEschylus. JEsch. inc. fr. 14 (286). dapaei' irovov yap aicpov ovk c%(i xpovov. The text is sound, a<pov being the nom., as is shewn by the con- text in Plut. de Aud.

There seems reason to suppose that these lines go together, as they are quoted continuously in the Aug. MS. of Stobaeus, and also in Theophilus (ad Autolyc. 2, p. 257, ed. Wolf.) May not they be explained " Suffering comes quick on mortals, even as transgression on him (namely) that violates justice," where the use of Kai instead of a relative particle is consonant with ancient simplicity, and actually more forcible? Compare such phrases as ap epyov apt crros. In Kar dprr. which Hermann has anticipated, or per aprr. we should rather miss the article. jEsch. inc. fr. 79 (348). /Soar toiovSc npaypaTos 6ea>p6s toj/.

It is surprising that Hermann, who quotes this gloss to support Boissonade's correction of nptytuv for rpitytuv in Ag. 1328, should not have seen that we must consequently read <m'a tis av n-ptyftfi/, " One would compare them to a shadow."
