I append a table showing the number of words in the above list used by the authors who employ five or more of them. Of the whole list of 377 [+5], οὐθείς, τρόπαιον, and the bracketed words (5) are not included in these figures. Numbers in brackets denote words found in spurious writings sometimes ascribed to these writers, but not occurring in the genuine works; these figures are not included in the authors' totals. The figures are of course not complete; for the writers to whom we have no full word-indices; see above, p. 7.
