PREFACE 

Owing to the large compass of the Byzantine documents intended 
for this volume, it was found advisable to reserve them for a separate 
Part (XVI), which will probably be issued in the course of 1922 ; the 
present instalment therefore, like Parts XI and XIII, consists of 
literary texts alone. The more extensive of these, including 1787-90, 
1792, 1798, 1800, 1805-β, 1808, 1810, belong mainly to the second large 
literary find of 1 905-6 ; others proceed from the work of different 
seasons, and a few, of which the most important are 1786 and 1793, were 
acquired by purchase on the site of Oxyrhynchus by Professor Grenfell 
during his visit to Egypt in the winter of 1919-20. 

That unfortunately remains my colleague's chief contribution to 
the following pages : a few of the minor texts were originally copied by 
him, and he was able to revise my copies of a few others ; the rest of 
the work involved in the preparation of this book has fallen to myself — 
a fact which accounts for some delay in its appearance and for many 
defects in its execution. 

I am again indebted to Mr. E. Lobel for much assistance with the 
new classical texts, and especially the fragments of Lesbian poetry. 
Valuable suggestions at an early stage were received from Professor 
Gilbert Murray, and Professor A. E. Housman kindly sent notes on 
a few passages in the poetical pieces. My thanks are also due to 
Professor H. Stuart Jones for a transcript in modern form of the 
musical notation of the early Christian hymn, No. 1786, and to some 
other scholars for help on special points, which is acknowledged in 
connexion with the texts concerned.

NOTE ON THE METHOD OF PUBLICATION AND 
LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS 

The general method followed in this volume is the same as in preceding 
Parts. 1787-90 and 1792-4 are printed in dual form, a literal transcript being 
accompanied by a reconstruction in modern style. In the remaining texts the 
originals are reproduced except for separation of words, capital initials in proper 
names, some expansions of abbreviations, and supplements of lacunae. Additions 
or corrections by the hand of the body of the text are in small thin type, those 
by a different hand in thick type. Square brackets [ ] indicate a lacuna, round 
brackets ( ) the resolution of a symbol or abbreviation, angular brackets ( ) 
a departure from the text of the original, braces { } a superfluous letter or letters, 
double square brackets [] j] a deletion in the original. Dots within brackets 
represent the approximate number of letters lost or deleted ; dots outside brackets 
indicate mutilated or otherwise illegible letters. Letters with dots underneath 
them are to be regarded as doubtful. Heavy Arabic numerals refer to the 
texts of the Oxyrhynchus Papyri in this volume and Parts I-XIV ; ordinary 
numerals to lines, small Roman numerals to columns. The terms recto and verso 
when used of vellum fragments refer to the upper and under sides of the leaf, 
where these are determinable.

I. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 



1778. ARISTIDES, Apology. 

12x14-6 cm. Fourth century. Plate I 

(Fols. 1-2, recto). 

The following small but valuable fragment of the Apology of Aristides in the 
original Greek is contained on the upper part of a leaf from a papyrus book, 
adjoined by a narrow strip from the other leaf of the sheet. How the sheet was 
folded, i.e. what was the relative order of the two leaves, and what was the 
position of the sheet in the quire cannot be determined ; since, however, the 
strip from the second leaf is inscribed with but a single word, these questions are 
of slight importance. The handwriting is a handsome well-formed uncial, which 
though somewhat smaller and more compact has a decided general resemblance 
to that of 847, a leaf from a vellum MS. of St. John's Gospel, and like that 
specimen may be assigned with probability to the fourth century. No punctua- 
tion occurs. 0eoy is contracted in the usual way, but άνθρωπος and apparently 
ουρανός were written out in full (11. 33, 37). Some inaccuracies may be detected 
in the text, which seems to have been of mediocre quality ; cf. nn. on 11. 26 sqq. 
and S3- 

The Apology is a recent addition to early Christian literature. The first step 
towards its recovery was made in 1878 with the publication of an Armenian 
translation of the first few chapters from two MSS. in the Lazarist monastery at 
Venice. This was followed eleven years later by Dr. Rendel Harris's find 
at Sinai of a complete version in Syriac ; and shortly afterwards Dr. Armitage 
Robinson, who had seen Dr. Harris's work in proof, recognized that the Apology 
was actually already extant in Greek, having been embedded in the early 
mediaeval romance, the History of Barlaam and Josaphat. The outcome of 
these fortunate discoveries was the joint edition by the two scholars of the 
Apology of Aristides in Texts and Studies, I. i. (1891), containing the Syriac 

Β 



2 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

text with an English translation, Latin and English versions of the Armenian 
fragment, and the Greek text from Barlaam and Josaphat. 

The question then presented itself, how far the Greek of Barlaam and 
Josaphat could be regarded as representing the ipsissima verba of Aristides. 
That certain modifications had been introduced by the author of the romance was 
evident, e. g. a passage near the end in which the Christians were defended from 
certain charges made against them by early enemies was naturally discarded as 
out of date. But there remained considerable divergences which could not 
be easily accounted for. The Syriac has a number of repetitions and details 
not found in the Greek, the difference in total length approximating to the ratio 
of 3 to 2. Was this the result of expansion or compression ? Had the Syriac 
translator amplified the original or the redactor of the Greek cut it down ? The 
latter explanation, as Dr. Armitage Robinson observed in discussing this 
problem {op. cit. pp. 71 sqq.), seemed a priori the more probable, but careful 
consideration of the opening passage in which the testimony of the Armenian 
fragment was also available showed that the faults were by no means all on one 
side. While in the Greek there could here be traced one serious modification with 
a consequent displacement, one considerable abbreviation, and an added phrase 
in a Christological passage, the Syriac was found to be often loose and inaccurate, 
dropping some phrases and inserting others, sometimes with a distorting effect. 
Dr. Robinson's general conclusion was ' that the Greek will, as a rule, give us the 
actual words of Aristides, except in the very few places in which modification 
was obviously needed. Where the Syriac presents us with matter which has no 
counterpart whatever in the Greek, we shall hesitate to pronounce that the Greek 
is defective, unless we are able to suggest a good reason for the omission, or 
to authenticate the Syriac from some external source.' Harnack agreed that the 
Greek was the truer witness, but proposed to account for the variations of the 
Syriac and Armenian by postulating as the basis of these a later Greek 
' Uberarbeitung ', which they in turn had still further transformed {Gesch. der 
altchristlichen Lift. i. 1. 97) — a needlessly complicated hypothesis. Again, 
R. Raabe, in his commentary in Texte und Untersuchmigen, ix. 1, has no high 
opinion of the accuracy of the Syriac translator. On the other hand, Dr. Rendel 
Harris in a recent essay seeks to show that Celsus, in replying to Aristides, used 
a text of the Apology which was in close agreement with the Syriac {Bulletin 
of the John Ry lands Library ', vi, pp. 163 sqq.). 

With the welcome discovery of what is undoubtedly a fragment of the 
original text, the problem now reaches a new phase. The relation of the Greek 
of the fragment (P) to that of Barlaam and Josaphat (BJ) and to the Syriac 
version is discussed in detail in the notes below on 11. 8 sqq. and 26 sqq. In 



1778. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 3 

general it may be said that P, as might be expected, holds an intermediate 
position. Though open to criticism especially for its verbosity, to which much 
of its comparative length is due, the Syriac has at any rate some of the 
advantages claimed for it by Dr. Rendel Harris, in places reproducing the 
original more faithfully than BJ and retaining words and phrases which the 
Greek redactor discarded. The latter often preserves the language of Aristides 
with much fidelity, but he treats the original with some freedom, making such 
short cuts and readjustments as seemed suitable for his purpose, and not con- 
fining himself to ' necessary modifications '. On the whole then the present 
discovery appears to place the Syriac version, if not in the flattering position 
suggested by Dr. Harris, yet in a more favourable light than that accorded to it 
by Dr. Armitage Robinson and by Raabe {pp. cit., pp. 37-8). If the prudent 
critic must still ' hesitate to pronounce that the Greek is defective ', he should 
exercise a corresponding caution in condemning matter peculiar to the Syriac. 
With Ρ as guide, the task of sifting the wheat from the chaff may now be 
undertaken with a better chance of success.

η. μιαφοις is apparently a misspelling for μιαροις. This word does not occur in the 
extant Greek, and to what context it should be referred is not clear. There are several 
references to pollution in ch. iv and the preceding part of ch. ν in connexion with γη and 

νδωρ, — φνρομενην, αιμασι φυνευομενων μιαινεται, μιαινεται και φθείρεται, αιμασι μολυνόμινον και είς 

πάντων των ακαθάρτων πλΰσιν άγόμενον. The original form of one of these phrases may have 
included the adjective μιαροις, though there is nothing in the Syriac suggesting this. 
Possibly, again, the word was used later in reference to the Greek gods or their 

human imitators J cf. VUi είς ζώα μεταμορφουμενονς έπ\ πονηράϊς κα\ αΙσχραΊς πράξεσιν, and 
τους μη ovras προσαγορευοντες θεούς, κατά τας csWVjuas αυτών τας πονηράς, ινα tovtovs συνηγόρους 
expires της κακίας μοιχευωσιν, άρπάζωσιν, φονεύωσι κα\ τα πάνδεινα ποιώσιν. As mentioned in the 

introd., the relative positions of Fol. ι and Fol. 2 are indeterminate. 

8 sqq. The extant Greek of this passage is as follows : ol he νόμΊζοντες την των άνεμων 

πνοην eivai θεαν πλανώνται. φανερόν yap εστίν οτι δουλεύει ετερω, και χάριν των ανθρώπων κατεσκεύα- 
σται υπό του θεοϋ προς μεταγωγην πλοίων καϊ συγκομιδή τών σιτικών, και είς λοιπά? αυτών χρείας' 
αΰξει τε και λήγει κατ επιταγην θεοΰ. διό ου νενόμισται την τών ανέμων πνοην είναι θεάν, αλλ' έργον 
θεοϋ. 

The Syriac is : ' And again those who have thought concerning the blasts of winds that 
it is God, these also have erred : and this is evident to us, that these winds are subject 
to another, since sometimes their blast is increased and sometimes it is diminished and 
ceases, according to the commandment of him who subjects them. Since for the sake of 
man they were created by God, in order that they might fulfil the needs of trees and fruits 
and seeds, and that they might transport ships upon the sea ; those ships which bring 
to men their necessary things from a place where they are found to a place where they are 
not found ; and furnish the different parts of the world. Since then this wind is sometimes 
increased and sometimes diminished, there is one place in which it does good and another 
where it does harm, according to the nod of him who rules it ; and even men are able by 
means of well-known instruments to catch and coerce it that it may fulfil for them the 
necessities which they demand of it ; and over itself it has no power at all ; wherefore it is 
not possible that winds should be called gods, but a work of God.' 

In 11. 8-12 the agreement with the extant Greek is close, the only discrepancies being 

θ(εό)ν είναι for είναι θεάν, φανερά for φανερόν, and the addition of ήμ'ιν after εστίν. In the 

Syriac the simple directness of the original is obscured by unnecessary verbiage : • con- 
cerning the blast of winds, that it . . . these also . . . and this is evident . . . that these 
winds . . .' On the other hand ί to us ', which the extant Greek has dropped after ' evident ', 
is correctly retained ; and the following clause ' Since sometimes their blast is increased and 
sometimes it is diminished and ceases ' apart from the redundancy of ' their blast ' and ' and 
ceases ', corresponds faithfully to the original, whereas the extant Greek parts company, 
omitting the dependent clause and passing on to the next sentence. At this point, how- 
ever, the Syriac too becomes faulty. After ' and ceases ' it proceeds ' according to the 
commandment of him who subjects them ' (cf. κατ επιταγην θεοΰ in the extant Greek) ; 
whereas the original has an inferential sentence, apparently ' therefore it is under some com- 
pulsion . . .'. Further detailed comparison is precluded by the unfortunate mutilation of the 



1778. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 5 

lower part of this page; but the scanty remains appear to support the fuller version of 
the Syriac as against the much shorter extant Greek, though no definite correspondence can 
be made out. 

9. 6(eo)v : so also the Syriac, ' that it is God '. The extant Greek has θεάν both here 
and elsewhere where the subject is feminine. 

13. a[i>]£f[t : the identification of the exiguous traces is confirmed by the collocation 
αϋξε ι τε καϊ λήγει farther on in BJ. Whether that is to be regarded as a transposition 
of ποτέ μεν . . . λήγει is doubtful, for the Syriac repeats ' Since then this wind is sometimes 
increased and sometimes diminished ' at the corresponding point, and it is therefore quite 
possible that there was a similar repetition in the original. In that case BJ omitted ποτέ 
μεν . . . λήγει here, and did not merely transfer it to a later position. 

14. ανα•γ[κα\ζ(ται : cf. the references in Β J to ανάγκη in connexion with other elements, 

&C, e. g. IV κινείται δε ovpavos κατ ανάγκην, vi όρώμεν γαρ αυτόν (sc. τον ήλιον) κινούμενον κατ 

ανάγκην, and the application of the same phrase to the moon and to man. To read owiyfioj] 
εσται is less suitable, since of the doubtful letters before ται the second is the taller of the 
two, whereas if they are εσ the reverse would be expected. The top of the supposed 
ζ is not unlike that of ζοντα in 1. 8. 

1 6. The very scanty remains are not inconsistent with αυξει again, though the repetition 
of this word seems unlikely. Of the three letters printed the e is the most probable ; 
the other two are very uncertain. 

17. The first ν is very doubtful. The next letter is apparently ω, e, or η, which 
is followed by ν or κ. 

1 8. The doubtful λ may be μ. 

26 sqq. The opening sentence of this section may safely be restored from BJ on the 

analogy Of 11. 8—IO οι δε νομιζοντες τον ηλιον θ(εο)ν eivai πλανώνται, Β J continues : όρώμεν γαρ 
αυτόν κινοίιμενον κατά ανάγκην κα\ τρεπόμενον καϊ μεταβαίνοντα από σημείου εις σημεΊον, δυνοντα 
κα\ ανατέλλοντα, τοΰ θερμαίνειν τα φυτά και βλαστά εις χρησιν των ανθρώπων, ετι δε καϊ μερισμόν 
έχοντα μετά των λοιπών αστέρων, καϊ ελάττονα οντά του ουρανού πολύ, καϊ έκλειποντα τοΰ φωτός, 
καϊ μηδεμίαν αυτοκράτειαν Έχοντα. διό ου νενόμισται τον rjXiov eivai 6eov, αλλ έργον 6eoi. 

The Syriac is : 'So too those have erred who have thought concerning the sun that he 
is God. For lo ! we see him, that by the necessity of another he is moved and turned and 
runs his course ; and he proceeds from degree to degree, rising and setting every day, 
in order that he may warm the shoots of plants and shrubs and may bring forth in the air 
which is mingled with him every herb which is on the earth. And in calculation the sun 
has a part with the rest of the stars in his course, and although he is one in his nature he is 
mixed with many parts, according to the advantage of the needs of men: and that not 
according to his own will, but according to the will of Him that ruleth him. Wherefore it 
is not possible that the sun should be God but a work of God.' 

Here the Greek of BJ is close to that of the papyrus throughout, especially when one 
or two necessary corrections have been made, φερομενον of 1. 2 has disappeared and is more 
likely to have been simply dropped than to be represented by μεταβαίνοντα, since the Syriac 
has an equivalent for this as well as for φερομενον. καθ ημεραν, which the Syriac connects, 
probably rightly, with δυνοντα τε και ανατέλλοντα, has also been discarded. The article has 
been omitted with βλαστά and χρησιν (confirmed against the v. 1. χρείαν), and βλαστά and 
φυτά are transposed; which was the correct order may be questioned, but the papyrus 
seems on the whole to be supported by the Syriac. μερισμούς (1. 33) was read by Boissonade, 

with some MSS. (μερισμόν W, divisionem Lat. ; cf. Syr.). In 11. 38-40 αυξ[ει δε καΐ\ μειουται 

[και εκλιψεκ (?)] έχει is represented by και εκλείποντα του φωτός, and this or something like it 
is probably to be regarded as the correct text, since the indicatives αυξει, «fee, interrupt the 
participial construction, which is carried on in 11. 40-1 by και μ[ηδεμιαν] αυτοκρα[τειαν f^o^jra ;

and though waxing and waning might be interpreted as referring to varying degrees of heat 
they are not terms ordinarily associated with the sun. It is then likely, as Dr. Rendel 
Harris suggests, that ανξα, κτλ., has been brought in here from the succeeding paragraph 

Concerning the moon, where BJ has αυξανομίνην re κα\ μειονμένην και eKKefyeis αχούσαν. 

The Syriac has preserved (pepopevov and καθ ημ^ραν, but in other respects does not com- 
pare favourably with Β J. ' Shoots of plants and shrubs ' is a pointless change, and ' may 
bring forth . . . earth ' and ' in his course . . . parts ' are gratuitous amplifications. ' en 
is omitted, and the insertion of ' in calculation ' is anything but a gain in clearness. 
' According to the advantage of the needs of men ' is displaced, and is besides a clumsy 
translation of «s την χρησιν των ανθρώπων, though less verbose than ' and that not according 
to his own will ', &c, as an equivalent of και μηδ*μιαν αντοκρατ^ιαν έχοντα. The reference to 
eclipse has disappeared. Raabe, /. c, was rightly critical of this passage. 

33. «wet is obviously an error for en (arising not improbably out of an intermediate 
misspelling erei), and BJ's addition of Se may well be also right. There would be room for 
one letter between και and the following μ, but none seems admissible and perhaps there was 
a flaw in the papyrus. 

38-40. Cf. n. on 11. 26 sqq. eKkei^ets is assured by the parallel there quoted from Β J 
and would not overload the lacuna if εκλι^ις or encXi^t? were written, as is quite possible. 

1779. Psalm i. 
1 1•5 X 7-7 cm. Fourth century. 

A complete leaf from a papyrus codex, containing three verses of the first 
Psalm. The informal hand, which may be assigned to the fourth century, 
is rather large, and disproportionate to the size of the leaf, so that only 17 lines 
are got into the two pages. Stops in the high position are used, and a rough 
breathing occurs in 1. 4. There is no stichometric division of the verses, as there 
was e.g. in 1226, a fragment from a still earlier book. A variant known from an 
eleventh- century cursive receives support ; cf. 1226, &c.

1780. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 



1780. St. John's Gospel viii. 



25-6x8 cm. 



Fourth century. 



A leaf from a papyrus codex, complete at the top and bottom, but torn 
vertically, so that about half of the lines are missing on both pages. The hand- 
writing, a handsome specimen of the ' biblical ' type, large and upright, is unlikely 
to be later than the fourth century. A pause is sometimes marked by an increase 
of the interval before the following letter, otherwise punctuation is absent. The 
contractions usual in theological texts occur. A pagination figure, 74, has been 
entered (by the original scribe, apparently) in the left-hand corner of the recto ; 
a comparison of the capacity of this leaf with the amount of the preceding part of 
the Gospel shows that the number refers to the page, not to the leaf, and it will 
follow either that the pages were numbered alternately in the series a, 4, 6, &c, 
or that they were numbered consecutively at the top left corner. Here then may 
well be another example of the system of alternate pagination which appeared 
probable in 1011 ; cf. Part VIII, pp. 18-19. The text, like that of 847, shows a 
general agreement with the Codex Vaticanus.

1781. St. John's Gospel xvi. 

24-5x6-8 cm. Third century. 

The following leaf from a papyrus codex evidently belonged to the same MS. 
from which 208 (now Brit. Mus. 782), a sheet containing portions of chaps, i and 
xx of St. John's Gospel, was derived. The character of the hand (both in the 
main text, which is written in an upright rather heavy script of semi-literary type, 
and in the corrections), length of lines and columns, method of punctuation 
by short blank spaces, occasional use of the rough breathing, and internal textual 
evidence, all combine in proving an identical origin. 208 was assigned to the 



1781. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 9 

period between A. D. 200 and 300 (Part II, p. 2), and there is no reason to ques- 
tion that attribution, though the codex is perhaps more likely to date from the 
second half of the century than the first. With regard to the corrections and 
additions, which are in a small but very similar hand, the further specimens now 
available rather suggest that these are due to a diorthotes rather than to the 
original scribe, though they must in any case be practically contemporary. 

In consideration of the interesting character of the text of 208, the recovery 
of a further fragment of this ancient book, the earliest copy so far known of 
the Gospel, is very fortunate. In 208 a tendency was noted to agreement with 
the Codex Sinaiticus, but this is not apparent in 1781, so far as variants peculiar to 
that MS. are concerned, though where Ν is supported by one or more of the other 
chief uncials the papyrus is usually in harmony. Coincidences with MA are found 
in 11. 47, 48, with ND in 1. 12, with tfBD in 11. 13, 20, with tfBC in 11. 34-5. There 
is one agreement with Β against the other main authorities (1. 13, omission of the 
article with 'ίησσΰς ; cf. 1. 12, n.), one with BD (1. 31) and BCD (1. 34). An 
omission of εγω in 1. 47 is peculiar to the papyrus, and in 1. 44 there was 
apparently another omission which has hitherto depended on slight authority. 
The tendency to brevity, especially in omitting unnecessary pronouns, con- 
junctions, &c, is an outstanding feature of both 208 and 1781 ; cf. 208 Fol. 1 
verso. 5, 10, 11, recto. 12, 22, Fol. 2 recto. 19, verso. 2, 5sqq., 12, 14-15, 17, 1781. 6, 
12, 13, 20, 26, 38, 44, 47, 50-1, and nn.

1782. DlDACHE i-iii. 

Fol. 1 5-8x5, Fol. 2 5-7x4-8. Late fourth century. 

Two vellum leaves, containing a few verses from the first three chapters of 
the Διδαχή των δώδεκα αποστόλων, supposed by some to be of Egyptian origin and 
now making its appearance for the first time in an Egyptian manuscript. The 
leaves, which are a good deal worn and discoloured, are detached, but originally 
may well have formed a single sheet, since the two interior edges follow roughly 
the same contour. In that case the quire included five sheets at least, eight 
leaves being required for the matter intervening between Fol. 1 verso and Fol. 2 
recto, and would be more likely to have consisted of the unusual number of eight 
sheets, for the 3^ verses lost before Fol. 1 recto would occupy only three more 
leaves. This latter inference would of course be invalidated if the Didache was 
preceded by some other treatise, but the supposition of a large total number of 
leaves does not well accord with their proportions, which are remarkably small — 
smaller even than in 840. The book to which they belonged was one of the 
miniature volumes which seem to have been often preferred for theological works, 
though not limited to that class of literature (cf. e. g. P. Rylands I. 28). It may 



1782. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 13 

perhaps date from the fourth century rather than the fifth. The hand is a 
medium-sized informal uncial, at its best somewhat similar to that e.g. of 1618 
and the Cairo Menander ; on Fol. 1 recto it is markedly larger and more irregular 
than on the other three pages. That the writer was a person of no great culture 
is clear also from his spelling and division of words (e. g. επιθυμειων, υμ\ει$). ν at 
the end of a line is commonly represented by a horizontal stroke above the pre- 
ceding vowel, and the usual abbreviation of πνεύμα occurs. There is no punctua- 
tion, but the end of a chapter is marked by a row of wedge-shaped signs followed 
by horizontal dashes. The apparent absence of pagination may be due to the 
poor state of preservation of the upper margins. 

The Didache has been preserved in a single MS. (M) of the middle of 
the eleventh century, discovered at Constantinople by Bryennios and edited 
by him in 1883. It is supposed by Harnack to have taken its present shape 
about the middle of the second century {Lehre der zwolf Apostel, pp. 159 sqq.), 
but to have an older text, based ultimately on Jewish elements, behind it 
(cf. Gesch. d. altchristl. Litt. I. i. 86-7) ; and he finds indications of an earlier 
recension in the Κανόνες εκκλησιαστικοί τών αγίων αποστόλων, a treatise called 
by Bickell, its first editor, the ' Apostolische Kirchenordnung ' and by Hilgenfeld 
(Ν. T. extra Canonem) ' Duae Viae vel Iudicium Petri ', as well as in an old Latin 
translation of Didache i-vi (the ' Two Ways') edited in 1900 by J. Schlecht, in 
both of which Did. i. 3 — II. 1 is omitted, though that omission may be otherwise 
explained (Gebhardt, ap. Harnack, Lehre d. zwolf Apost., p. 281). But that 
in the fourth century at any rate the Didache stood practically as found in Μ was 
sufficiently indicated by the Apostolic Constitutions, a compilation generally 
supposed to have originated in Syria or Palestine between about A. D. 340 and 380, 
in the seventh book of which the Didache has been largely drawn upon. 

In the existing paucity of evidence for the text, any addition is welcome, and 
a comparison of these early Oxyrhynchus fragments with Μ and with the 
corresponding passages of the Apostolic Constitutions is an interesting study. 
Separated as they are in date by some eight centuries, it is hardly surprising 
to find several variations between Μ and 1782, which offers one or two 
remarkable new readings. Of these the most striking is the insertion between 
the third and fourth verses of chap, i of the words άκουε τί σε δα ποιοΰντα σώσαί 
σου το πνεύμα, πρώτον πάντων, which form a transition to the abrupt άπεχου of the 
accepted text. Other noteworthy variants are the omission of και σωματικών (και 
κοσμικών Const. Apost.) in i. 4, and of από παντός in iii. 1, the insertion of πράγματος 
in iii. 1, and the substitution of έπεώη οδηγεί for δδηγεΐ γαρ in iii. 2. How should 
these novelties be appraised ? The two last are not very convincing, and 
άπόσχου for άπεχου in i. 4 certainly does not inspire confidence. On the other 



14 



THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 



hand the omission of a second adjective in i. 4 renders more intelligible the 
strange variation there between Μ and Const. Apost*, and άκουε . . . πάντων does 
not look like an interpolation. Perhaps, then, Harnack's statement (op. cit. 
p. 172) that there is not the slightest trace of any alteration in the Didache during 
the two centuries which elapsed between its composition and embodiment in the 
Apostolic Constitutions may now need some qualification. With regard to the 
relation of Μ to Const. Apost., though in cases of divergence the former has 
generally the support of 1782, there are two unexpected agreements with the 
latter in i. 3, τούτο for το αυτό and φιλεΐτε for αγαπάτε. Similarly, one coincidence 
occurs with Καν. έκκλησ. (Hilgenfeld's Dnae Viae) against Μ and Const. Apost., 
ων Be 'for be ων, which maybe correct; a reading which Hilgenfeld ventured 
to adopt from that source is not, however, confirmed. 

In the appended collation the texts as given by Harnack, op. cit., have been 
utilized, together with H. Lietzmann's convenient edition of the Didache (Kleine 
Texte 6), in which a reprint of Schlecht's Latin version is added to the apparatus.

1782. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 15 

2. τοντο : το αυτό Μ; cf. Matt. V. 47 ουχί κα\ oi εθνικοί το αυτό ποιρΰσιν ; On the Other 

hand Const. Apost. (vii. 1) have και yap oi εθνικοί τοϋτο ποιοϋσιν, and so Justin, Apol. i. 15 (with 
πόρνοι instead of εθνικοί). 

4» φιλίΐτί: so Const. Apost. ; αγαπά™ M, and so also Matt. v. 44, Luke vi. 27, Gospel 
according to the Egyptians, and Justin, Apol. i. 15. 

7. ονχ *£«■* εχθρον is also the order of Μ. ΐχθ. οίχ ίξ. Const. Apost. 

8-12 aKove . . .παντω(ν) : there is nothing corresponding to these words in Μ or Const. 

Apost., which pass abruptly tO άπίχον των σαρκικών κτλ. For σωσαι το πν{*νμ)α cf. e. g. 
I Cor. V. 5 ΐνα το nvevpa σωθη eV τη ήμίρα τοΰ κνρ'ιον. 

,13. αποσχον. άπίχον Μ, Const. Apost. The present tense is expected. 

14. σαρκ(\ϊ\κων (πιθυμίΐων : σαρκικών κα\ σωματικών ΐπιθ. Μ, σαρκ. κα\ κοσμικών ΐπιθ. Const. 

Apost. κοσμικών was adopted by Bryennios and preferred by Harnack (pp. 5, 172) who 
however hesitated to accept it in his text ; cf. Titus ii. 12 άρνησάμΐνοι . . . τάς κοσμικάς 

επιθυμίας, 2 Clem. XVU. 3 μη άντιπαρΐλκώμΐθα άπο τών κοσμικών ΐπιθ. The variation in Μ and 

Const. Apost. as to the second epithet may perhaps be regarded as an argument for its omis- 
sion with 1782, which has also in its favour the analogy of 1 Pet. ii. 11 αγαπητοί, παρακαλώ . . . 
άπίχΐσθαι τών σαρκικών ΐπιθ. 

1 6. fXey£etr : so Μ. The ξ, though little of it remains, is practically certain, and ους 8e 
(λίήσΐΐς, which Hilgenfeld inserted after ΐλεγξΐΐς from Καν. ίκκλ., is therefore excluded. 
Const. Apost. (vii. 5), like M, make no reference to eXeoy, but are here rather compressed. 

16-17. ω { ν ) δ* • SO Καν. έκκλ. : 8e ων Μ. Both Μ and Καν. ίκκλ. have προσΐύξη. 

2 3- ο,πο was inadvertently repeated in turning over the page. There seem to be traces 
of a bracket after the ο and of a horizontal dash underneath the three superfluous letters, but 
this corner is so much discoloured and rubbed that it is difficult to be sure whether or how 
they were cancelled. 

24. πράγματος '. om. M, Const. Apost., Καν. Ικκλ. πράγματος may have been inserted 
to obviate the ambiguity in gender of πονηρού (cf. the opposite rendering of the Latin ad 
homine malo), but on the other hand the homoeoteleuton would make the loss easy. 

25. πονηρού : SO Μ, Καν. ίκκλ. ; κακοΰ Const. Apost. 

26. ομοίου '. άπο παντός ομοίου Μ, Const. Apost., Καν. 4κκλ. 
αυτού : SO Μ, Καν. έκκλ. ; αΰτώ Const. Apost. 

28. (πίΐδη ο8ηγ(ΐ : so Lat. quia . . . duett', otyyu yap Μ, Καν. ΐκκλ. ; Const. Apost. omit 
the epexegetic clause, ΐπΐΐδή ό8ηγΰ occurs three times in verses 4-6 of this chapter. 

1783. Hermas, Pastor, Μ and ix. 

6x9-3 cm • Early fourth century. 

This fragment, the fourth from the Shepherd to be obtained from Oxy- 
rhynchus (cf. 404, 1172, 1599), consists of the lower portion of a vellum leaf 
containing a few verses from Mand ix. Seven lines are missing at the top 
of the verso, and on the assumption that the upper margin was of the same 
depth as the lower the height of the leaf when complete may be estimated 
at 13 cm. The hand is a round upright uncial of medium size and rather 
graceful appearance, which may be referred to the earlier part of the fourth 
century. There is no trace of ruling. One instance occurs of a stop in 1. 4. 6tos 
and Kvpios are contracted as usual, but not άνθρωπος (1. 5)• 



i6 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

The leaf is a palimpsest, but the original text, which ran in the reverse 
direction, is so much obliterated that its identity has not yet been established. 
It was prose, written apparently in lines of much the same length as those of 
the Shepherd, and in a hand which looks very little earlier in date. Among 
the few words which have been recognized with the aid of a reagent are 
. . . τον περιεσχια\[3η, ου μόνον τω, και πληρώ. 

This fragment is approximately contemporary with 1172 and 1599, and 
shows a text of a somewhat similar type. It is not free from errors (e.g. 
11. 5, 6), but in several places it is superior to the Codex Athous, here the 
only continuous Greek authority, and supports corrections which editors have 
adopted from other sources. For the passage covered by 1783, the testimony 
of the Athous (ca) and the Latin and Aethiopic versions is supplemented by 
a fragment printed from an early MS. by J. E. Grabe, Spicil. ss. Patrutn, i, 
p. 303 (ed. 2), and extracts found in Ps.-Athanasius and Antiochus. In the 
collation below the transcript of the Codex Athous given by K. Lake in Facs. of 
the A thos fragments of the Shepherd of Hennas has been utilized, besides the 
editions of Gebhardt-Harnack and Hilgenfeld.

1784. CONSTANTINOPOLITAN CREED/ 

65 X 19-8 cm. Fifth century. 

This copy of the so-called Constantinopolitan Creed, which as being an 
enlargement of the Nicene Creed has commonly passed under the latter name, is 
still older than that of the Nicene Creed published in P. Rylands I. 6. It is 
written in an upright semicursive hand which may be referred to the second half 
of the fifth century. In 1. 3 υ of του is written as a semicircle above the ο and a 
common abbreviation of και is used in 1. 6. Θ(ό$, κύριος, Ίησους, and Χρίστο? are 
contracted, but not πατήρ, υιός, or άνθρωπος, ο and ω, as often happens in docu- 
ments of this period (cf. e. g. 1130, which is approximately contemporary), are 
repeatedly interchanged. 

The origins of this Creed are obscure. According to Nicephorus (Hist. Eccles. 
xii. 13) it was framed by Gregory of Nyssa, but the Acts of the Council of 381, to 
which it is attributed, are not extant, and its first authoritative appearance is in 
the Acts of the Council of Chalcedon (A. D. 451), by which 'the Creed of the 
150 holy Fathers assembled at Constantinople ' was reaffirmed. That the present 
copy was made not very long after that event would be a natural supposition. 
Apart from misspellings it agrees so far as it goes with the ordinary text ; 
unfortunately it breaks off before the eighth article, in which the ' Filioque ' 
was inserted at an uncertain date, is reached, though that addition is not likely to 
have been incorporated here. 



J? πιστενωμςν €ΐ[ς] cva θν πάτερα παντοκράτορα ^τορα^ ποιητην [ο]ννου 
και γης ορατών τ€ πάντων και αωρατων και "[[e]]? €να κν Ιν Χν

3• μονογίνην: this form of the ace. is a vulgarism common from the Roman period. 
4. 6((o)v : the ν has been written over an original s, which being in darker ink looks at 
first sight like the later letter, but that this appearance is deceptive is shown by αληθι\νο\ν.

1785. Homilies ? 

Frs. 2 + 3 6-6xi3»8cm. Fifth century. 

A fragmentary papyrus leaf, apparently from a collection of discourses which 
at present remain anonymous. The style of Frs. 2-4 recto, concerning con- 
cupiscence, of which a series of Biblical instances is cited, recalls that of 1603, 
now identified as (Pseudo-)Chrysostom In decollationem. Ρ recur sorts (Aoy. γ6), but 
efforts to trace 1785 among the works of that voluminous author have so far not 
been successful. Other fragments of homilies cast in a somewhat similar mould 
are 1601-2. That the several fragments, of which a few are too insignificant 
to be worth printing, are all from the same leaf is likely though not certain. 
Frs. 1-5 recto and Fr. 1 verso. 1-6 are written in fairly regular slightly sloping 
uncials of medium size ; at Fr. 1 verso. 7 the hand changes, and from this point 
onwards approximates to cursive. Apparently 11. 5-6 are remains of a heading, 
and 11. 7 sqq., where the second hand begins, are a fresh discourse, which 
is of a hortatory description and relates to reverence and godly fear. A fifth- 
century date seems to be indicated, more especially by the second hand. The 
ink throughout is of the brown colour characteristic of the Byzantine period. 
A mark like an enlarged comma is employed with some freedom to divide 
words, and two or three instances of the rough breathing occur on the recto, 
where also a high stop is once found (Fr. 1 recto. 7).

Fr. 1 recto. That this fragment is to be placed above Fr. 2 is shown by the change of 
hand on the verso. 

7. The first letter must be a, δ, or λ, and if, as seems probable, the vestiges above the 
line represent a rough breathing, όδοΰ or δλον is indicated, the word following perhaps being 
σου ; otherwise δονλ[ο]υ could well be read. 

8. #(<-o)s is doubtful, the cross-bar of θ being rather indistinct, and the form of the sign 
of abbreviation unusual. Possibly the oblique stroke might be taken as meant for a mark 
of division between ]v and και, but it is rather farther away from the ν than would be expected, 
and with the stop above the line would also be superfluous; cf. however Frs. 2-4 verso. 7, 
where a somewhat similar stroke occurs apparently as a mark of punctuation. 

Frs. 2-4 recto. The position of Fr. 2, giving the ends of 11. 1-3 is certain, but that of 
Fr. 4, which contains the ends of 11. 12-15, with a vestige supposed to belong to the 
a of ανηρ in 1. ii, is less clear. 

2. Either [κ\ατ(ψ(ν[σαντο or [κ\ατΐψεν[οΌμαρτνρησαν (cf. 1. 4) is probable and the former must 
be preferred if οι πρεσβύτεροι is right. Σονσαννα is the spelling of BAQ ; Σωσαννα Β rescr. 

3. αρ[χιμ]αγίΐρον : so the LXX in Gen. xxxix. 1. 



1785. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 21 

5-6. The incident referred to is related in Judges xix-xx. At the end of 1. 5 
απωλο]ντ[ο πολ|λοι is very conjectural, especially as there is barely room for [Xot] before 
από in 1. 6. 

7. οι Σοδομαται (Gen. xix) and the following nominatives lack a verb, e. g. εφθάρησαν, 
and the angular symbol preceding 01 may be interpreted as referring to this loss, which was 
perhaps supplied in the margin. 

8. Dr. Bartlet suggests that Κα . . . may be Καπερναούμ, referring to Matt. xi. 23, but 
this can only be restored on the assumption of a misspelling. 

11. The explanation of the dash between the e and | of (ξονσιαζει. is not evident. 
There is a hole in the papyrus immediately below it. ν of αν[της may be λ, e. g. a\\\a o]. 

Pr. 5. 3. A combination with Frs. 2-4. 1. 2 [κ]ατ(ψ€ν[8ομαρτ]νρη[σαν is possible, though 
unconvincing. 

Fr. 1 verso. 4. The latter part of this line has apparently been washed out. 

6. Whether part of an oblique stroke immediately after the lacuna belongs to a letter, 
e. g. v, or some other sign is doubtful. 

Frs. 2-4 verso. 1-2. The margin being lost both here and in 11. 7-9, the point at 
which the lines begνη[

42 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

9. στ[ύ]μα[τι] or στ[ύ]μσ[σι] appears inevitable ; the latter suits the size of the lacuna the 
better of the two. πρόκοψις as a synonym of προκοπή has not occurred previously. Cf. 
Ale. 35. 2. 

11. χελΰνναν is gen. plur. ; cf. 1231. 14. 8, n. For χελύννα cf. Orion 28. 15 (Sapph. 169) 
ws παρά. ΣαπφοΊ. χελώνη χελΰνη, where χελύννα should now be restored. The doubled ν is 
perhaps to be recognized also in Babrius 115. 4. 

12. The words χρόα γήρας ήδη occurred at the end of a Sapphic line in 1231. 10. 6 ; 
cf. 1. 17, where there is a similar doublet of 1231. 1. i. 33, and Fr. 7. 3. Either Sappho 
was rather forgetful, or she did not mind repeating herself. 

13• Cf. Soph. Ant. IO92 λευκην εγώ Tjji /δ' e< μέλαινης άμφιβάλλομαι τρίχα. 
14. yova : cf. Ale. 39. 7 yova Σύριος αζει. 

17. Cf. note on 1. 12 above. With regard to the accent of γενέσθαι, the remark of 
Wilamowitz, Sappho u?id Simonides, p. 99, is mistaken, the original edition of 7. 6 being correct, 
and the appearance in the facsimile of an accent on the second syllable being due, as 
stated by Mr. Lobe], who has recollated the original, to a displaced fibre. There is therefore 
no conflict with 1233. 8. 4 λάθε[σθ]αι, and the note on 1231. 1. i. 33-4 is to be amended 
accordingly. 

18-19. The idea here may well be that old age follows youth as inevitably as night 
the dawn (? ννξ] κατά. γάς φίροισα : the participial clause might be applied to νύξ as 
symbolizing death), α of φεροισα was probably the final letter of the line, but the surface 
of the papyrus is damaged. 

21. Perhaps ερ]άταν, or a superlative, e.g. κεδνοτ]άταν. But the reference remains in 
doubt. 

24-5. These two verses are quoted by Athen. xv. 687 A (= Sapph. 79) καίτοι Σαπφώ, 

γννη μεν προς άληθειαν ούσα και ποιήτρια, όμως ήδέσθη το καλόν της άβρότητος άφελεϊν λέγουσα ωδε' 
εγω δε φίλημμ' άβροσΰναν και μοι το λάμπρον ερος (ν. 1. ερις) άελίω και το κόλον λελογχεν, φανερόν 
ποιούσα πάσιν ως ή τοϋ ζην επιθυμία το λαμπρον και τ» καλόν είχεν (? ε'ίληχεν) αυτί], ταΰτα δ' εστίν 

οϊκΰα της άρετης. Various attempts at restoration have been made, but, as is now seen, Blass 
alone was right in marking a lacuna after άβροσΰναν and in taking το λάμπρον . . . λελογχεν 
as a complete verse, in which the only alteration needed is έρως άελίω (so Blass : cf. Fr. n. 
4 dJovXoyot δ* ερ[ωτες (?)) or epos τώ άελίω. In the preceding verse there are five syllables to 
be supplied after άβροσΰναν, of which the two last are τοϋτο. How the lacuna remaining, 
a dactyl of about 6 letters, should be filled is not obvious. If τοϋτο = τό άβρόν, this was 
perhaps preceded by an adverb qualifying φίλημι, e. g. έξοχα, 8η μόλα, πόλλ' ετι, or a predicate 
of τοϋτο, as άδΰ γε. The papyrus may of course have agreed with Athen. in the spelling 
φίλημμ\ but κάλημι is written in Fr. 44. 4. 

That the small fragment containing the beginnings of 11. 25-9 is rightly placed can 
hardly be doubted. The fact that 1. 28 is the last of a column helps to confirm the 
coincidence of the letters τολα[ in I. 25. 

Fr. 2 (a). This fragment has been included on account of its similarity on both sides 
to the upper part of Fr. 1 ; but that it belongs here is not certain. 

Fr. 3. U. 4. δάφνας : or Δάφνας ? 

6. A dot in front of the line seems meaningless and may be accidental. 

11. It does not seem possible to read τεαντα, as demanded by the metre. For the 
spelling with ε, which seems to be the regular form in the papyri when the first syllable 
is short, cf. 1231. 14. 4, 1233. 2. ii. 5, &c. 

13. For the small marginal cross cf. Fr. 35. ii. 6 and 841. introd. 

15• C• g• μελαίνα\ς δια νυκτός ΟΓ μελαίναϊις πτερύγεσσιν. 



1787. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 43 

16. e. g. [καταχΐνΐ] βλιφάροισι λάθαν ΟΓ [βλεφαρ αμμιν κατά δη καλίιψτ]. 

1 8. ζα χωρίς ϊχην: the tmesis is indicated in the papyrus by the accentuation. 

20. v[ or χ[ may be read in place of λ[. 

2i. ου is more suitable than ev or at. The accent on yap points to κ eoi>, not κίον. 

Fr. 4. 2. Possibly Άι>δ]ρο//ί[δα, whose name recurs again in Fr. 7. 5 ; as Lobel 

Observes, Aristid. ii. 508 οΐμαι Μ σε και Ί,απφονς άκηκοίναι . . . λΐγονσης, ώς αυτήν αί Μονσαι τω 
οιτι δλβίαν τε κα\ ζηλωτην εποίησαν, κα\ ώς υυδ' άποθανοΰσης εσταί λήθη might perhaps be brought 

into connexion with 11. 5 sqq. 

4. The vestiges of the fourth letter are consistent with ζ, ξ, or τ, but no satisfactory 
restoration suggests itself. 

6. Below the remains of the initial κ there is a spot of ink which might well be the 
extremity of a paragraphus, but this would be out of place unless indeed these lines were in 
a different metre. A paragraphus may have disappeared below 1. 7, as there is little left 
of the κ at the beginning of the line. 

9. The supposed acute accent on the first a is particularly badly formed, the right- 
hand extremity being turned downwards ; but it is difficult to see what else can be meant. 

10. For the doubled ν of ivv cf. e. g. 1233. 2. ii. 8, 1360. ι. ία μίλάθροισιν, . . . 
δόμοισιν or some synonym may be supplied. 

Fr. 5. 3. υ\οφ[ώως, which must be scanned as a quadrisyllable, is suggested as 
accounting more naturally for the correction of the accent than e. g. any part of όλοφνδνός . 
7• e . [ : perhaps e. 

Fr. β. ι. Μίκα seems best taken as a proper name, especially as σμικρός or μίκρος is well 
attested for the Lesbian poets (Sapph. 34, 1233. 24. 2, 1234. 6. 8). Μίκα is given by the 
Ravennas in Aristoph. Thesm. 760, and Μίκκα is not infrequent. It is tempting to regard 
Μίκα as the name of the person addressed, but the accent is against this, since Μίκα would 
be expected on the analogy of Sapph. 1. 1 Άφρόδιτα, 78. ι Αΐκά (cf. Choerob. InHeph. c. 14). 
To disregard the accent in a passage so defective is unjustifiable, and Μίκα may be the name 
of a third party : ' Mica wishes to bring you here, but I will not receive you '. σε can hardly 
be Sappho herself, with a different second person in the next line. 

2. ΐγωνκ is analogous to e.g. 1231. I. i. 23 ΐμνάσθ' α\λλα], 1234. Ι. 1 1 πωσλον. The 

practice of making the written text represent the number of spoken syllables may be 
mistaken, but it is not 'modern' (Wilamowitz, Sappho und Simonides, p. 82). 

3. The mark of length on the α indicates that Πενθιλήαν is fem. gen. plur., in agreement 
with some such word as παίδων; cf. Frs. 1 + 2. 11 n., and for the adj. Πβνθίληος, 
1234. 6. ίο. 

4. κα[κο\τροπ seems probable, though the letters ακυ must have been rather spread out 
to fill the lacuna, λ or χ might be read in place of a. 

6. Cf. AristaenetUS i. IO (Sapph. 129) al μουσικώτεραι των παρθένων και μΐϊΚιχόφωνοι 
(1. μ(λλιχ.), τοΰτο δη Σαπφούς τό ήδιστον φθίγμα. The form μιιλίφωνος ascribed tO Sappho in 

the similar passage Philostr. Im. ii. 1 should now disappear until otherwise attested. _ 

7. αη[δυι: cf. Schol. Soph. Aj. 628 ή άηδω δε κατά Μιτνληναίονς. The form αηδών IS given 

in Sapph. 39. 

Fr. 7. 3• Cf. Sapph. 2. Ι 'ίσος θίοισιν. 

4• άλιτρα : a very small speck on the edge of the papyrus after the second a, if it is ink, 
may be a medial stop, or, possibly, a vestige of e. g. a final v. The fem. άλιτρή occurs in 
Semonides 7. 7, and cf. Fr. 32. 2 below. 

5. For Άν]δρομ€δαν cf. Sapph. 41, 58. 



44 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

6. There are perhaps only two letters, e. g. μα or va, between τα and κα. 

8. Not ϊμ]ίρον. 

12. Probably ]ia or ]va. The overwritten' letters enclosed between dots are variants 
added by the original hand. 

Fr. 8. 3. The supposed mark of length may be an acute accent. 

Fr. 9. This fragment is composed of two pieces, the combination of which seems 
certain, although 1. 1 is difficult and 1. 3 must be emended in order to scan. The points 
of junction are, 1. 1 e\n, 1. 2 π\α, 1. 3 κα\ν. 

ι. ]οδίρκ(ΐ> is puzzling, ρ is more probable than γ, which is the only alternative and 
also difficult to interpret. If πω is right, the ω was rather smaller than usual, but eyω is 
not more attractive. 

3. ά]/3ρ[ό]ται> : or άμφι]βρ[ό]ταν. 

Fr. 10. 5. The high stop is not certain, being on the edge of the papyrus; it might be 
the vestige of a letter. 

Pr. 11. 4. ep[wTes : cf. Frs. 1 + 2. 24-5, n., and Himerius i. 4 els ννμφίΐον aya 

(SC Σαπφώ) rat Άφροδίτην (cf. 1. 3) ΐφ' αρματί Χαρίτων rat χορον Ερώτων συμπαίστορα. Ζρ[ασται ΟΓ 

i'p[avTes are other possibilities. 

Pr. 12. 6. The remains of the first letter suit £ better than anything else, but σδ would 
be expected, and η or et is perhaps admissible. In the following word it is not clear whether 
the vestige above a represents a mark of short or of long quantity. 

Pr. 13. 4. The first letter may be ο or ω instead of p. 

8. The letter before the lacuna was apparently either e or σ, not a. 

10. έα[: έδ[ seems to be excluded. 

Pr. 14. 4. If (cXe^Soi/f is one word, the fragment must be from near ihe ends of lines ; 
but the division kXc# 8qv[ (δ' 6v[ ?) is possible. 
5. e. g. ]t, ]v. 

Pr. 15. ι. ι, ρ, ν may be read in place of τ. 

3• arepos for iTtpos had already occurred in 424. 9. The interlinear insertion may be 
by the original scribe. 

Pr. 18. 2. λ before the lacuna is only one of several possibilities, e. g. δ, v. 

4. An acute has been substituted for a circumflex accent ; cf. e. g. Frs. 5. 3, 19. 3. 

Pr. 19. 2. The mark like a sign of elision is possibly a diastole, which is sometimes 
(e. g. 1789), though not elsewhere in 1787, placed above the line. 

4. Though the papyrus is partially preserved after κν, all trace of writing has 
disappeared. 

Pr. 21. The width of the space above 1. 1 suggests that this fragment, like 22 and 23, 
came from the top of a column, but is hardly sufficient to prove it. 

Pr. 23. 4. The right-hand tip of the paragraphus is expected to be visible below this 
line, but the paragraphi are sometimes rather short. 

Fr. 26. 3. ι or ρ can be read in place of ν ; ν also is very uncertain. 



1787. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 45 

5. For the alteration of accent cf. e. g. Fr. 18. 4. The second acute could be read as 
a circumflex. 

7. The supposed mark of length is placed low and may be the tip of the cross-bar 
of a τ. 

Fr. 27. 3. There is a short blank space after a, which perhaps ended the line. 

6. The accent is very doubtful. 

Fr. 29. 4. ]vlav is a gen. plur. ; cf. Frs. 1 + 2. 11, n. 

Fr. 32. 1. The letters of this line are distinctly smaller than those of 11. 2-3. 

Frs. 33-43. This group of fragments is distinguished by being more discoloured and 
rubbed than the rest. Frs. 41-3 have been included on account of their resemblance to 
the larger pieces. 

Fr. 33. 4-5. The identification of these two verses with Sapph. 78. 1-2, though 
probable, is in consequence of the damaged condition of 1. 5 hardly certain ; however, the 
remains suit ]αισ[ quite well, and the preceding acute accent is just in the right place if 
ίρραισ was written. 

Fr. 34. Ι. και r : or καιτ'(οι). 

5, if rightly read, probably = Sapph. 76, from Hephaest. 64, Έ,νμορφοτίρα Μνα,σώίκα 
τΰς άπάλα: Τνρίννως. Unfortunately the letters are broken, the first and fifth especially being 
doubtful ; the latter might well be e, ο in this hand being generally, though not always, 
smaller. Since the margin is lost it remains possible that, as maintained by Bergk, the line 
was the first of a poem (it is perhaps worth noting that the initial letter is again Ε ; cf. int., 
p. 27). There is also a possibility, so far as the papyrus is concerned, that P. Halle 2. 1, 
which may = Sapph. 77, immediately succeeded. 

Fr. 36. 4. It is not clear whether the accent on δηντ is circumflex or acute, but the 
former is in accordance with 1231. 15. 3. 

5. For ηδί cf. 1233. 4. 2 ; this in conjunction with the accented «• makes t(c) likely. 

6. cko\ : ΟΓ exa[. 

Fr. 38. 2. πέ\η[ο! is possibly for πίλπος, ' dark ' ; cf. irekeia. 

Fr. 39. 1. A very small vestige after ν is consistent with v. 

Fr. 40. 1. The doubtful ι was perhaps the final letter of the line. 

2. A compound is indicated by the'grave accent, and ανο]λβον by the metre. 

4. ανταν ΟΓ τλαίταν. 

Fr. 41. 5. There is no trace of ink below this line, which was perhaps the last of 
a column. 

Fr. 44 = P. Halle 2. The revised text printed is based on the facsimile (Tafel 8) 
accompanying the original edition, but photographs are apt to be deceptive, and a satisfactory 
revision can only be made by means of the actual papyrus. The reprint in Diehl, 
Supplementum lyricum, p. 43, adds nothing material. That the interlinear signs are, of course, 
the ordinary accents, marks of quantity, &c, and have nothing to do with musical notation 
has been pointed out by Hunt, Year's Work, 19 13, p. 78, and Wessely, Wochenschr . f. klass. 
Phil. 30. 669. 

1. This line, which is the first of a column, may possibly, as the edd. say, = Sapph. 77, 
but apart from the doubt as to the reading there, τνχοισα is hardly enough for an identifica- 



46 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

tion ; cf. n. on Frs. 1 + 2. 12 above. Moreover, 11. 2-6 rather suggest an invocation to 
a deity. 

2. "ψΐλωντ&πάισάν, ]θίλων τα παισάν edd. ; but the facsimile shows clearly an acute accent 
on e and suggests an elision mark after λ. θίλ' thus seems assured, and ώντ can hardly be 
interpreted otherwise than as ων τ, the retracted accent replacing the circumflex, as 
elsewhere in papyri (cf. e. g. 223. int.). Hence the last word will be either απαισαν or 
άπαίσαν, according as the accent or the mark of quantity on the final a is accepted ; άπαίσαν 
ace. fern, would conflict with other evidence. 

3. ]eaov edd. If, however, the facsimile may be trusted, a vestige of the letter preceding 
c is visible, indicating δ or λ. For τί]λΐσον cf. Sapph. 1. 26-7 οσσα Se μοι τέλίσσαι θϋμος 

Ιμφρα τέλεσαν, 7. 3 — 4j Ale. 77 Ze ^ s ™\ίστ] νόημα. 

6. οσ]σα : cf. e. g. Sapph. 1.26 quoted in the preceding note ; ]σα edd. 

7. ]p (γα\ρ ?) : ]' . edd., who note that ρ is possible. 

8. πίθασα : cf. 1233. 2. ii. 20 πίθα[ς. 'πίπισα edd. 

9. ] . σνΒ^νπεφοισθα, σν δ* ev πίφοισθα edd., suggesting that πίποισθα was meant. The 
facsimile indicates the expected circumflex over ev, and hardly justifies πβφ, the letters being 
too small and crowded. Apparently yap οισθα is quite possible, as well as V in front of συ. 

ίο. τά . We. edd., but 5 obviously cannot be correct, and the facsimile shows that the 
interlinear mark stood over the next letter and suggests a diaeresis rather than a circumflex. 
If the diaeresis is right, Ιλλ (i. e. ftXX) seems necessary, but the termination remains in doubt ; 
to judge from the facsimile, Xe was followed by two letters or a letter and a high stop, or 
perhaps by a broad v. 

Fr. 45. That this fragment of a title, which was found in the immediate vicinity of 
1787, belonged to the same roll is not certain ; the hand is not identical, though similar 
in type. 

1788. ALCAEUS ? 

Fr. 4 18-6x5-8 cm. Late second century. 

Plate II (Fr. 15). 

The following lyric fragments in Aeolic dialect proceed from the same find 
as 1787, and are in a script which, though smaller, is very similar in type ; the 
formation of some letters, however, notably μ, is different, and the two MSS. 
cannot be taken for the work of a single scribe. A further distinguishing feature 
is the presence in 1788 of marginalia in a small cursive, attributable to the later 
decades of the second century, and presumably contemporary with the poetical 
text. In one of these notes reference is made to the grammarian Didymus 
(Fr. 15. i. 10). Accents, breathings, &c, resemble those in 1787, but a stop in 
the low position is here used in addition to the two other kinds. To what 
extent these adjuncts are original or secondary is not clear. By an inconvenient 
coincidence the present text, like the Sappho, was accompanied by other lyric 
but not Aeolic fragments in an apparently identical hand, and a correct ascription 
of the many smaller pieces is hardly attainable. Accordingly the procedure 
adopted with 1787 is followed in this case also, and only those fragments which 



1788. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 47 

are guaranteed by the dialect have as a rule been printed. The non-Aeolic 
pieces probably come from the same roll as 1604, and are reserved for a future 
volume ; they are much broken and of no great extent. 

No coincidence has been discovered in 1788 with the extant remains either 
of Sappho or Alcaeus, and other clear proofs of authorship are absent. The 
metrical evidence, however, favours Alcaeus, and style, so far as an opinion can 
be formed from fragments so badly mutilated, points also in his direction. The 
best piece is Fr. 15, containing in the second column the first five stanzas of an 
Alcaic poem which are sufficiently well preserved to be more or less intelligible 
and include a few complete or easily completed lines. This poem, addressed to 
a person whose name does not occur, is apparently of a hortatory character, and 
contains an elaborate metaphor from a vine which promised a bountiful crop but 
might yet yield sour grapes. An appeal in the last stanza to past example is 
rather in the manner of Alcaeus; cf. 1234. 2. ii. 12, 1789. 1. ii. 7-8. Frs. 1 
and 3 are in Asclepiads, a metre evidently used by Alcaeus with some frequency. 
Fr. 1 gives a description of a natural scene (cf. Ale. 84, 1233. 3. 8 sqq.) — a pleasant 
picture of cool water running down from the hills to the vineyards and of green 
reeds rustling in the breezes of spring. Fr. 2 may for the most part be in the 
same metre, but 1. 10 ends like a hexameter (cf. e. g. Ale. 45-6), and the beginning 
of a new poem is perhaps to be marked at that point ; the metre of Fr. 2. 10 sqq. 
may well recur in Fr. 7. Fr. 4, a long strip containing parts of as many as 
40 consecutive lines, is in places rubbed and difficult to decipher. The metre of 
much of this was apparently again Asclepiad, but the lower portion shows 
rhythms of a different character. Asclepiads are also likely in Frs. 11 and 14 
and possible in some others. Fr. 12. ii, from the end of a poem, seems to have 
consisted of 4-line stanzas which were neither Alcaic nor Sapphic.

2. The first σ, though rubbed, is practically certain. 

3. \ακ Ρ ]αν is perhaps not too much for the lacuna, ρ being a narrow letter. , . , 

4. [γ\]αύκαι> is gen. plur. fem., as shown by the mark of length on av ; '. . .]av in I. 5 was

another word of the same kind. The language here is close to that of Sapph. 4 άμφΐ δ( 
(ύδωρ) ψϋχρον κλάδα (cf. 1. 6) δι νσδων μάλίνωρ, but the present passage can hardly have been 
the source of that fragment. 

6. The vestige of the letter after ov suggests e. g. λ, χ. 

7• τ^λΐφάνην : it is unlucky that the initial letter is missing, as in 1231. i.i. 27 [^]Xe(?), 
1233. 4. 10 [τ]ήλοθ(ν. πήλνι rests on the evidence of grammarians. 

Fr. 2. 7. Not δ Μίλά^ππ' (cf. 1233. 1. ii. 8). 

8. The correction of γαρ to yas may be by the original hand. How the letters should 
be interpreted is open to doubt, but yas is in keeping with άροτρωμμ[, and ]τωγά5 is unknown. 

9. η of yanjov is not very satisfactory, but an alternative that will suit the context is not 
easy to find. 

10. A new poem with a change of metre apparently begins here. 

Fr. 3. This fragment is very similar in appearance to Fr. 2, and at first sight a com- 
bination of 1. 6 with Fr. 2. 1. 9 is attractive, but this would create difficulties both in the 
scansion of 1. 8 (if yas is right) and in the marginal note in 1. 10, where yvvai<o{s) is a more 
probable reading than συνα<ο{\υυθ ). The two fragments may, however, well have belonged 
to the same column. 

Fr. 4. 3. e. g. 'ό Ρη [μ\ ορη [ρ. 

6. The second ο of koXokvvtcus has apparently been converted from v. 

7. The supposed interlinear δ might possibly be a rather large circumflex, but the 
preceding vestige would remain unaccounted for. 

8. To the right of the cancelled δ on the edge of a hole in the papyrus is a spot of ink 
which may be a vestige of an interlinear letter, or of an apostrophe. 

17. A vestige above ω is doubtfully interpreted as a circumflex. 

19. ]? : ]e is rather suggested by the remains, but seems excluded by the metre. 

20. συ τάσ-δ*, βΰρασδ' are possibilities, neither very satisfactory. 

22. Three consecutive long syllables are plainly shown here by the papyrus, as 
apparently also in 11. 30 and 32-3 ; cf. the next note. 

25-8. The letters πολ, . ιστού, αισιυ and part of ο, αν at the beginnings of these lines 
are on a small fragment which fits here so well that the combination is almost assured. 
A sequence of four long syllables results in 1. 26, but in view of 11. 22, 30, and 32-3 that 
cartnot be regarded as a fatal objection. 

26. The stop(?) after οιδα, is well below the line. 

27. ηνβ[ : yivt[ is hardly possible. 

28. A mark on the edge of a hole above the doubtful ο is unexplained ; possibly it was 
a grave accent, or there may have been some correction. 

38. Some vestiges above the line point to a correction. 

Fr. 5. The appearance of this fragment suggests that it is from the bottom of the 
column to which Fr. 4 belonged. 

4. v[ is followed by four centimetres of papyrus on which nothing is visible, but 
owing to the rubbed condition of the fragment it is not clear that the line ended here. 

6. Cf. Fr. 4. 22, n. ; but Ιμ[ίρρ]ψ hardly fills the lacuna. 

Fr. β. 3. The accent on a is doubtful ; it might be e. g. a mark of length. 

4. Ίσ : or ]*r. 

13. Σίσνφο[: cf. 1233. i.ii. 12. 



1788. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 59 

Pr. 7. 4. Karaypet recurs at the end of a line in 1233. 11. 9; cf. Sapph. 43. 

8. υ is a correction from t. If υ is right, σαι is presumably the possessive pronoun. 

Pr. 9. That this fragment is Aeolic is shown by the accent in 1. 2. 

Pr. 11. This fragment, at the right-hand side of which there is a junction between the 
selides, may come from Fr. 15. i, but does not join on immediately, at any rate. 

Pr. 12. ii. 3. There is no paragraphus below this line. 

11. The supposed coronis is uncertain, being represented only by part of a thin 
vertical stroke immediately in front of 1. 10. 

Pr. 13 is included here on account of its similarity to Fr. 14, which is apparently 
Aeolic. 

Pr. 15. i. 4. ]epeav : or perhaps ]«pc[t]ay. 

10. Didymus is known to have written a book περί λυρικών ποιητών, but this seems to 
have been of a historico-literary nature rather than a critical υπόμνημα of the kind indicated 
by the present passage. It is, however, likely enough that his voluminous commentaries 
included a treatise on the Lesbian poets, as well as on Pindar and Bacchylides. 

ii. 3. Either δμάτ[ or δρά#[ can be read. 

9. As in 1787. 34. 1, τ may represent either re or το». 

ii. παρίσκθ' here provides a parallel for Powell's admissible suggestion π^ρσκίθοισα in 

1231. 1. i. 18. 

13. it: or f . [. 

14. ey[: or «!-[. The letter following }v may well be o.

18. For the (Doric) form ?js for ψ cf. 1360. 1. 9, where h is better taken as 3rd person, 
and 1231. 55. 4, where ijs is probably to be recognized; ην, which is read in Sapph. 106, 
may now well be emended. The following word as originally written was apparently 
σνναι Ρ €τ[αι Uyp- is possible), which was amended in some way, perhaps by the substitution 
of a[ep) or α\γΐ Ρ ] for at, but there has been no deletion. ^ 

19. For the doubled μ in κλαμμα cf. e. g. Sapph. 1. 16 κάλημμι, 14. ι and the Halle 
fragment νόημμα, 1231. 13. 4 <Mw»• *« λο * Ap is evidently parenthetical, παλαον which 
was first written = παλαιοί/ (adv.), πάλαοε being the Aeolic form according to Eust. 28. 33. 
Whether the correction is due to the original hand or to a diorthotes is not evident. 

21. Vestiges above the line suggest ψ rather than τ, and e.g. SfyjY) well suits the 
conditions ; but τ is possible, if some interlinear addition is supposed. What has been 
taken for a high stop in front of τοιαύτας may be part of the preceding letter. 

22. The letter after ]v has been corrected, but what was intended is hardly determinable 
as the line stands. Apparently ο was first written, and through this there is a vertical stroke 
(1 ?), with a vestige of ink close by on the edge of a hole in front of σ. Perhaps ]va$ was 
altered to }mo S . Further on, if σ and e are rightly read, the intervening letter, which had 
a vertical stroke, was presumably γ or τ. 

23. For the interpretation of this line much depends on the identity of the letter printed 
as η before δρ. The first stroke of the η has the form of a narrow oval, and it is therefore 
questionable whether 61 should be read instead of η. But the oval is considerably narrower, 
and the cross-stroke longer, than in a normal Θ, and θι is, moreover, intractable metrically. 
Perhaps then the scribe began to write e and converted this to η. If η is right, -ημι μη 
would be suitable enough. The first visible letter must be either β, ο, ρ, or φ, and next 
to this the slight remains suit the upper part of a β better than anything else. [τά}ρβημι 



6o THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

would sufficiently satisfy the conditions, if that word were likely. For δρό . [. .]σιν, 8po<r[oi\<rt» 
naturally suggests itself but is difficult in the context. Possibly 8ρόπ[ω]σιν or 8ρόπ[οι]σιν may 
be restored on the analogy of 1234. 2. i. 9 τρόπψ, ii. 7 ovirponc. The high stop after this 
word seems superfluous in any case. 

25. *'πονήμ[(νοι : cf. 1789. 1. i. 5 (v. 1. ίπονάμ., probably correct) and Ale. 46 πόρασιν 
(μοι γΐ-γίνησθαι, which has been gratuitously altered to έπ ονασιν. There is more to be said 

for the correction tpoiye ytvtaBai . 

26. ]r; or y ΟΓ σ. 

27. e. g. καρτ(ΐ[, καρτ(ρ[. 

28. [8ιπλ]ασίαν is perhaps not too much for the lacuna when allowance is made for the 
slope of the column. 



1789. ALCAEUS. 

Fr. 1 11-7 χ 15*2 cm. First century. Plate III 

(Frs. 1-3, Col. i). 

The authorship of these fragments, consisting of parts of two columns and 
a number of disconnected pieces, would have been sufficiently clear even without 
the occurrence in them of Alcaeus 19, part of an Alcaic stanza cited by 
Heraclides Ponticus, whereby their source is definitely proved. This coincidence 
is found in Fr. 1. i. 15-18, and it becomes plain that the lines quoted by 
Heraclides were the beginning of a poem, of which we now recover the con- 
tinuation in the following column, where Alcaeus' favourite metaphor of a storm- 
tossed ship is carried on for a further two lines. Since the height of the column 
is unknown, the extent of the lacuna between Col. i. 19 and Col. ii. 1 cannot be 
determined, but it may be only one line and is hardly likely to have exceeded 
five lines, which would give three stanzas for the development of the metaphor. 
Six more stanzas at least followed, of which however only one and a half are 
sufficiently well preserved to be intelligible and capable of restoration. In these 
the poet passes from allegory to precept, and urges his fellow-citizens to courage 
and endurance and to emulation of their ancestors. The subject of the preceding 
poem, the conclusion of which survives in a mutilated form in the upper portion 
of Col. i, is obscure. It presumably belonged, like the other, to the class of 
Στασιωτικά ; there are references to marriage (11. 7, 14), but whether these have 
anything to do with the marriage of Pittacus, to which allusion is made in 
1234. 2. i. 6, remains doubtful. As the text stands its chief point of interest lies 
in the metrical scheme, which seems clearly to be a stanza of four lines, the 
first three being lesser Asclepiads and the fourth a Glyconic. This stanza was 
used repeatedly by Horace (i. 6, 15, 24, 33, ii. 12, iii. 10, 16, iv. 5, 12) who has 
commonly been credited with its invention, but his debt now becomes evident. 
That the similar stanza with a Pherecratic for the third verse (e. g. Horace i. 5, 



1789. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 61 

14, &c.) was borrowed from Alcaeus had already been suspected on the ground 
of Ale. 43 ; another (previously unknown) form of Asclepiad stanza is exemplified 
in 1234. 2. i. From the remaining fragments not much can be extracted. In 
Fr. 6, which is in Alcaics, a mention of the Pelasgi is noticeable, and there seem 
to be other historical references. The character of Fr. 12, in the same metre, 
is indicated by the occurrence of the word μοναρχία as well as by a reference to 
Myrsilus in a marginal note. Alcaics are perhaps also to be recognized in 
Frs. 24 and 25. Fr. 13 may be in the Sapphic stanza, and Fr. 29 possibly in 
Asclepiads. 

The round upright script of this text is rather smaller and less ornate, but 
otherwise very similar to that of 1361 (Bacchylides, Scolia, Part XI, Plate 3), the 
characteristic letters e, Θ, and ξ being formed in just the same way with a dot in 
the centre disconnected from the other strokes. Of ζ, which in the Bacchylides 
has a vertical bar joining the horizontal strokes in the centre, there is here no 
example, but a similar archaic formation is presumable. 1361 was referred to 
the first century, a date which finds some confirmatory evidence in the cursive 
annotations of the present papyrus, which are not likely to be far removed in 
time from the main text. Apparently two secondary hands are to be dis- 
tinguished, and the interlinear alternative readings, which are not infrequent, 
may be due sometimes to one and sometimes the other. Stops in two positions 
are used (a double dot, of uncertain meaning, is found in Fr. 1. i. 11), and marks 
of elision and quantity are fairly plentiful. The diastole employed to divide 
words, more usually (cf. e.g. 1787-8) inserted at the base of the letters, is 
in this text placed like the sign of elision (e.g. Fr. 1. i. 6, 17), which it also 
resembles in shape. A ligature below the line occurs once (Fr. 17). These 
additions seem to be largely secondary ; the paragraphia however, are most 
probably original.

Pr. 1. i. ι sqq. The length of the initial lacunae is estimated from 11. 15-17; in one 
or two lines the resulting number of letters is rather scanty, e.g. 1. 10, but could be slightly 
increased if one or two narrow letters such as α, ι, λ, ρ be supposed to have occurred. 

1 . The two first and two last letters, of which only the bases remain, were round. 

2. e]xvpats, e. g., would be consistent with the very slight vestiges preceding/). In the 
note opposite this line the horizontal dash possibly distinguishes a syllable separately 
mentioned. The note may have been continued in a second line. 

3. ]vev : or perhaps vev. 

4. The letter after θ may be either α or λ, the papyrus being damaged where the 
cross-bar of the α would be. The following vertical stroke is so close to ο that the choice 
seems limited to ι or p. A small slightly curved stroke starting from near the base of this 
letter on the right-hand side is not easily accounted for and was possibly unintentional. 
[i]6apos could be read but is unconvincing in so doubtful a context, especially as a broader 
letter than ι would be expected. After κ, t or ρ is perhaps most likely. 

5. uWVto, σθ](νίτω, στ](ν€τω? For επονήμ([ν]οι cf. 1788. 1 5. ii. 25, n. : 'let them 
not return evil for good'; the diastole was wrongly placed. The interlinear variant 

(πονάμ([ν]οι Supports the form (πόνασιν in Ale. 46. 

6. ν after the lacuna is due to the hand which wrote ζαμενοντον in the margin ; the 
α following also shows signs of alteration. To judge from 11. 15-17, something rather 
shorter than ζαμΐυοντον originally stood in the text. 

8. ξνστοφο[ρή)μ([νος : the verb was apparently not previously attested. 

9. γλυκίωϊ : if the first letter is 7, which looks probable, the second must be either α or 
λ, and νκ are consistent with the very scanty vestiges in the third and fourth place. The 
question of the reading here is complicated by the marginal annotation, which is no doubt 
a variant, the letters rav and ωσ corresponding with the text ; but there seems to have been 
a considerable divergence otherwise, since γλ[ cannot be read. 

11-13. Fr. 2, which was found with Fr. 1, has been assigned to the ends of these lines 
with considerable hesitation. Its external appearance is favourable to the combination, and 
the resulting reading in 11. 12-13 a I ya\p ίμοι τότα . . . yepaar νπποτα runs well, but the ends 
of 11. n and 13, especially the former, are difficult. In 1. 11 a letter is desirable, though 
perhaps not absolutely essential, between σ and π, after which either α or λ can be read. 
Earlier in the line the small colon before • πόλλασ is possibly a stop, such double dots 
being sometimes used for punctuation, even in company with single dots (cf. e. g. 1809-10) ; 
or it may be connected with the marginal adscript. In Fr. 2 the letter before αμ is 
represented by a mere speck, which is capable of many interpretations ; that before the 
final a was γ, t, p, or r. In the marginal note opposite it is not clear whether the mark 
above the last letter denotes an abbreviation. In 1. 13 on the edge of the papyrus above the 
left-hand upright of μ there is a small semicircular mark which might be e. g. the remains of a 
dot enclosing an over-written letter. In 1. 12 ανθ\ μ&φ may be suggested (cf. 1787. 36. 2).

ΐ4• e]^ijt or λα]χ>;ι would suit the vestiges. The first letter may be α, κ, λ, or χ, the second, 
η, μ, ν, π ; and γόμον, -οι or -ei are equally possible. 

15-18 = Ale. 19, from Heraclid. Alkg. Homer. 5 ομοίως be τα ΰπο τούτου (SC. Μυρσίλου) 

αΐνιττόμινοε (τβρωθί που λίγα' τό κτλ. How the end of 1. 1 5 should be restored is still 
uncertain. The MSS. of Heraclides give τω προτίρω νεομω or (AB) τω προτίρω νέμω, for 
which τών προτέρων ομω has been conjectured by Seidler, των π. ονω by Bergk, τώ π. νίον by 
Hermann, τώ π. ν'μω by Gaisford, and τώ π. 'νέμω by Blass. Of these the last alone is 
consistent with the papyrus, though 'νίμω is not of course necessarily right. Fr. 37, which 
possibly belongs here, does not help. 

16. The v. 1. παρεξηι is abnormal. 

17. ΐμβαίνΐΐ Heraclid., Ζμβα Seidler, ΐμβά νη(ατα), i. e. veiara, Bergk, who also suggests 
€μβαί\νη κάτα, πτραίλικτος Άλμα, a restoration which is now put out of court by the papyrus, 
though the true version of the fourth line of the stanza is not yet within reach. 

19. ]σ: e is equally possible. That a dot further on above the line represents a stop 
is quite uncertain. 

ii. 1. Perhaps ωκιστ[α τοίχους, as Murray suggests, but the object may have stood in the 
preceding line and this one have ended with e. g. vaos (Lobel). 

2. es: cf. 1. 13, 1234. Fr. 1. ro (Part XI, p. 56), and Sapph. 1. 19, where the MSS. 
give es. els is normal for Aeolic, though is is hardly to be avoided in 1232. Fr. 2. 3. 

3. For μαλθακός, which seems to be novel, cf. 1233. i. 2. 10 κόθαρον, &c. ; the super- 
scribed variant would eliminate the Aeolism, as in 1. 5 below and Fr. 22. 2. 6<vos 
μαλθακός is comparable to e. g. χλωρόν 8eos. As an alternative to άμμίων or υμμέων a participle 
like (Ισβάλων or εμπέσων may be suggested. 

4. The v. 1. λαβή seems preferable to λαχη. συμφέρον is highly conjectural ; the clause 
may alternatively be regarded as giving the reason for the warning, e. g. μ4γ[α χύμ' ορψ, as 
Lobel suggests. 

5. πάροιθα is analogous to e. g. ΰπισθα. At the end of the verse μ[ώμω seems to suit the 
contrast between τώ πάροιθα and the emphatic νΰν at the beginning of the next line better 
than e. g. μ[όχθω or μ[ύθω ; the v. 1. τών is however perhaps rather in favour of one of the 
latter words. 

8. ΐσλοις τόκηας '. cf. 1234. 2. ii. 12 ΐσλων Zovtcs eV τοκηων. 

13. e'iaiKe : or (Ισίκ([τ ? Cf. n. on 1. 2. But es maybe the termination of a divided word. 

23. The position of the visible remains suits a stichometrical figure (α ? δ ?) rather than 
an initial letter, for though the scribe has, as usual, a tendency to edge towards the left as 
he proceeds with the column, the movement is elsewhere only gradual ; moreover, the 
horizontal stroke projects considerably too far for his usual paragraphus. On the other 
hand the supposed figure is closer to the column than would be expected. 

Frs. 4-5. These two small fragments were found, like Fr. 2, with the bulk of Fr. 1. 



7 2 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

somewhat apart from the rest, but it does not of course necessarily follow that they belong 
to that column. 

Fr. 6. 2. Either ]a {diastole") or λ' (elision) can be read. At the end of the line α was 
perhaps followed by a round letter (σ ?) the ink of which has run slightly. 

5. ά'ίδρο? occurs in Ion 34, and cf. Etym. Magn. άώροσίνη, Pindar, Nem. 1. 63 

άώροδίκας. 

7. The occurrence of the Doric ποκα here is strange, ποτά, as in the v. 1., being well 
attested for Aeolic. 

9. The remains of this line are difficult. According to the Etym. Magn. Κίρσα was 
another form of κίρρα, the Phocian coastal town, and a geographical name is not out of 
keeping with the rest of this fragment, especially if y\a<pvpa[ in 1. 8 be taken to imply νηκ. 
But the following letters are awkward. There are slight vestiges round a small hole in the 
papyrus above the a, so that a letter may have been added, but the traces suggest nothing 
suitable. 

Pr. 7. This fragment and the next both show a junction between two selides and 
almost certainly belong to the same column, Fr. 7 being from the top of it ; but there seems 
to be a lacuna between them. There is a similar junction in Fr. 11, but that that fragment 
came from the same column as Frs. 7 and 8 is doubtful. 

ι. «πψ-αδίωΓ, like τάν δα- in 1. 3, is a v. 1., as is indicated by the enclosing dots. 

5. άπο\(λ(ΐμ[μ€νον is a gloss probably referring to the last word of the verse, the 
termination of which corresponds. The question arises whether μενον in the second line of 
the scholium is part of the word anoXeXtippevov or of a second explanatory participle ; it is 
much more cursively written, and on the whole is best regarded as distinct and the writer 
as the author of the more cursive annotations in Fr. 1. i. 

Fr. 8. 2. e is followed by a vertical stroke consistent with e. g. μ, ν, π, p. 

4. ολννίχα, σνλννίχΐΐ ? 

5• e. g. άν]ώννμον, (πώννμον. The corrector wished to double the v. 

6. The variant here seems to be by the original hand. 

8. Some vestiges opposite this line are very doubtfully deciphered. 

Pr. θ. ι. ω is preceded and followed by the bases of vertical strokes which can be 
variously read. 

3. y]ap ΐσσ(τ : or π]αρίσσ<τ' ? A small curved mark above the τ appears to be part of 
a sign of elision. 

Pr. 12. 4. e is very doubtful : ο or ω is equally possible. 

6. o[ : or t[. 

7. ϋπο . [ : or ϋπ 6 . [. As the last letter u, v, or π is probable. 

8. This was no doubt the last verse of the column. 
10-11, The ink here is much effaced. 

Pr. 13. This fragment may well be from the top of a column. 

3. Perhaps ΐ\αίην, with θα[νατ . . in the previous line ; but ]άχην is possible. 

Pr. 17. The ligature below the line shows that the letters belong to a compound word. 

Fr. 19. That this fragment belongs to 1789 is not certain. 

Pr. 22. 2. For the v. 1. removing the Aeolic form cf. Fr. 1. ii. 3, n. The last letter may 
be y instead of π. 



1789. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS. 73 

Fr. 23. 3. If the dot was a high stop, this line was separated from the preceding one 
by an unusually broad space. 

Ft. 25. 6. The mark after ν may signify either elision or division of words. 

Fr. 26. 2. The supposed stop is uncertain and is perhaps the vestige of another 
letter (σ?). 

Fr. 28. This fragment from the bottom of a column does not come from Fr. 1. ii, and 
the appearance of Fr. 32 is also different. 

Fr. 29. 4. Possibly αστ[οϊ or -ov, as in Aesch. Eum. 565. π may be read instead of 
r, but not t or another vowel, apparently, ats cannot be Ace. Plur. Fem. unless the accent 
was mistaken. 

7. μανιώδη IS a gloSS On μ\αινόμ(ν\ον. 

Fr. 31. 2. The interlinear e is part of a variant. 

Fr. 32. 3. ώ τά[λαΐίί 

Fr. 33. 2. The dot after μη (?) is raised a little above the line, and might possibly 
belong to an interlinear v. 1., instead of being a stop. 

Fr. 40. This fragment is probably from the bottom of a column, but is apparently not 
to be connected with Fr. 1 2, in spite of the similarly placed scholia. 

2. The significance, if any, of the dot on the left of the accent is not evident. 
A corresponding dot on the right cancelling the accent should be visible if written. The 
occurrence of the accent is rather against the supposition that the t was to be deleted. 

Fr. 41. ι. ]λ• is an interlinear v. 1. 

5. The variant δήν implies δαντε in the text. 

1790. IBYCUS. 

Height 20 cm. First century b. c. Plate III 

(Frs. '2 + 3, Col. ii). 

Remains of three consecutive columns from the end of a roll containing lyric 
poetry in Doric dialect, with a few smaller pieces from a preceding column or 
columns. The good-sized and ornate but rather crabbed uncials are of a decidedly 
early type, and seem to belong to the middle or latter half of the first century 
B. C. Stops in two positions (high and middle), marks of diaeresis and quantity, 
breathings and accents have been inserted not infrequently, and many of these 
have the appearance of being subsequent additions, due perhaps to the writer of 
the cursive note at the foot of the third column, whose hand suggests the first 
century A. D. 

The short third column, besides having a blank space below it, is 
succeeded by a complete width of 13 centimetres of papyrus, but unfortunately 
this contains no title and the identification of the poet is left to conjecture. 
Internal evidence, however, so narrows the choice that only one name seems 



74 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

practically possible, that of Ibycus of Rhegium. In the penultimate line the 
author addresses Polycrates, to whom he ascribes imperishable fame. This can 
hardly be other than the well-known tyrant of Samos, who became a patron of 
the arts, and to whose court went Anacreon and, according to the common accepta- 
tion of a rather confused note in Suidas, also Ibycus. 1 Anacreon is excluded 
at once by the dialect, which however is entirely suitable to Ibycus. A further 
argument in favour of the identification is provided by the metre, in which 
among some less expected features the dactylic sequences frequent in the extant 
fragments of both Ibycus and Stesichorus are prominent. 

The previously known fragments of the poet, apart from isolated words and 
references, number a bare thirty, and the longest of them consists of but eleven 
lines, so that a consecutive piece of about four times that length, assuming that 
it is his, must be reckoned a very substantial gain. It relates to the story of 
Troy, to which several of the extant fragments also refer (Ibyc. 9, 11-13, 
34-8, Bergk). After speaking of the destruction brought down on the city of 
Priam by the beauty of Helen the poet disclaims any intention of celebrating 
the various actors in that great drama, a theme better suited to the art of the 
Muses than to mere human skill. By this negative method he contrives to 
glance at the chief figures and several incidents of the story. The style is simple 
and flowing, and there are repeated Homeric reminiscences in the phraseology. 
While the general effect is pleasing enough, what remains of this poem can 
hardly be said to justify the somewhat arrogant claim of the closing passage, in 
which the author implies that his poetic fame will rival that of his patron in 
other fields. But the recovery of a considerable specimen of his heroic manner, 
of which the present may presumably be taken as a sufficiently representative 
sample, is none the less welcome. 

Metrically the piece is of much interest. Though, as in 1361, the copyist 
contrary to the usual practice has not indicated the main divisions by paragraphi, 
the strophic responsion is evident. A short strophe and antistrophe of four lines 
is followed by an epode of five lines, the scheme being as follows : —

τυράννου πατήρ, χρόνος Si ούτος δ ϊπι Κροίσου, 'Ολυμπιάς νδ'. Maas (Pauly-Wissowa, Realencycl.) regards 
this visit to Polycrates as uncertain, on account of the confused dating — an inadequate reason, since the 
main fact would no doubt be attested by the poems themselves while the dates would be added by the 
commentators, δ του τυράννου πατήρ is a riddle. Schneidewin's suggested solution δ τοΰ τυραννικού or των 
τυράννων πρώτος, is unconvincing.

It was maintained by Schneidewin (Ibyci Reliqu. p. 78) that Ibycus like 
Stesichorus used lengthy strophes similar in compass to those of Pindar. We 
now see that this is not true of all his poems at any rate, if indeed of any ; and 
the more cautious judgement of Maas (Pauly-Wissowa, Realencycl.) is well 
justified. Of the individual verses employed several have parallels in the existing 
fragments, scanty as they are. The dactylic dimeter of the strophe occurs 
repeatedly ; see Ibyc. 1.5-6, 5. 1-2, 16. 4, and cf. Stesichorus 2. For Strophe 1. 3, 
cf. Ibyc. 1. 8, 9. 2, for Epode 1-2, Ibyc. 15, 18, 27, Stesich. 10, 48, and for Ep. 3, 
Ibyc. 26. 1, Stesich. 48. 

A purer dialect is shown by these fragments than by the extant remains of 
Ibycus and Stesichorus, where the mixture of forms is partly no doubt due to 
copyists. ξαναπατάς (1. ίο) and Πονλνκράτης (1. 47, Πολ. Pap.) are metrical 
Ionisms which appear also in Pindar. ϊσθλός is apparently written, and 
tXtvaav (1. 1 8) is noteworthy. Whether ϊγήνατο in 1. 41 is more than a 
vagary of the papyrus is not clear. No example occurs of the σχήμα Ίβύκζίον. 
In its accentuation the papyrus follows the Doric system (e.g. 1. 2 ηνάρον, 
1 8 ιτολνγόμφοι, 23 μόισαι, 24 (μβάι^ν, 47 e£ets) found also in 8, the Paris Alcman, 
and the Berlin fragments of Corinna (Berl. Klassikertexte, V. xiv). The additional 
accents supplied in the reconstructed text follow the same system so far as 
possible, but the present state of our knowledge does not enable this to be carried 
out with much confidence.

' . . . who destroyed the famed great and wealthy town of Priam son of Dardanus, setting 
out from Argos by decree of mighty Zeus and ensuing an oft-sung strife for fair-haired 
Helen's form, in tear-stained war ; and vengeance overtook miserable Pergamon because 
of golden-tressed Cypris. But it is not now my desire to sing of cheating Paris or slender- 
ankled Cassandra and the rest of the children of Priam or the capture of lofty-gated Troy, 
which is no unfamed theme ; nor do I tell again of the supreme prowess of the heroes whom 
the hollow well-nailed ships brought, a freight of noble heroes fatal to Troy ; whose captain 
was lord Agamemnon of the race of Pleisthenes, king and leader of men, the son of noble 
Atreus. Such things might the Muses of Helicon, versed in wisdom, well essay, but 
a living mortal man could not tell all the tale of the ships, how that Menelaus went from

Aulis over the Aegean sea from Argos to Dardania rich in horses, and with him the men of 
brazen shields, sons of the Achaeans. Foremost of them in battle came swift- footed 
Achilles, and great Aias doughty son of Telamon . . . and he whom gold-girt Hyllis bare, 
to whom Trojans and Danai likened Troilus in loveliness of form, even as thrice-refined 
gold to copper. Beauty imperishable is theirs ; and thou too, Polycrates, shall have

5• The diaeresis on «δει is evidently mistaken ; cf. 11. 18, 31, 44. 

8. The letters ]τα, 1. ίο ]v, and the vestige at the end of 1. 14 are in Fr. 2. i, which is 
separated from Fr. 1 by a short lacuna. 

10. The term ξΐναπάτης is applied to Paris in Eurip. Troad. 866. 

11-12. τανί[σφ]νρ[ον] : so e.g. Bacchyl. iii. 60, v. 69. Cassandra occurs also in Ibyc. 9. 

14-15. δ]γ seems to be the easiest connecting link between these two lines, and the 
vestige, though very small and ambiguous, is consistent with γ. [ου y]ap in 1. 15 is excluded 
by the difficulty of completing the preceding verse ; the plural όλώσι[αί] is not at all probable, 
especially with άνώνυμον following. At the end of 1. 15 γ is an alternative to π•; a new verb 
seems wanted here in any case. 

18. πολύγυμφος is an epithet of νψς in Hesiod, Op. 658. For (λ<=ύσα[ν cf. επελεύ^ω in 

Cretan inscriptions, e.g. Collitz-Bechtel, Dialektinschr. 4998. 1. 9-10 αϊ δε . . . μη επελεύσεί 

τό Τίτνακός. 

ig. ΐσβ\Κοίς, which was suggested by Lobel, and makes an effective contrast to [Τροί]α 
κακόν, is a doubtful but quite possible reading, the papyrus at the top of the σ being defective 
so that there is an appearance of two strokes. The form ia&kos is indicated also in 1. 22 
and recurs in Ibyc. 19. ήρωος is read by Ludwich and others in Homer ζ 303. 

2i. n\eia6[evi]8as : cf. Stesichorus 42 βασιλεύς Πλεισθίνίδαε. It would follow from the 
present passage, if Murray's n[arpo]s in 1. 22 is right, that Ibycus regarded Agamemnon as 
the son of Atreus (cf. e. g. Eurip. Hel. 390-2) and Pleisthenes as a more remote ancestor 
(grandfather?). According to Apollodorus iii. 2. 2 Pleisthenes was the father of 
Agamemnon, and it would be possible to make our poet an exponent of that view by 
reading ε'κ γ[έΊ>ου]Γ, which is palaeographically admissible, in place of « π'ατρό]ς. That, 
however, would be questionable on metrical grounds, since the corresponding syllable, as 
Housman observes, is short wherever preserved (11. 9, 35, 45). The statement of Tzetzes in 
II. p. 68 that the sons of Pleisthenes, who died young, were brought up by Atreus represents 
an endeavour to harmonize the conflicting genealogies. 

24. The end of this verse seems to be corrupt, since two short syllables are necessary 
for the metre, and a heteroclite form λόγα is incredible, t or π can be read in place of γ, 
but these do not help. Murray proposes to emend to πόδα, but the pleonasm is not 
attractive in a metaphorical passage. έμβαίνειν is commonly used with the dative or 
a preposition, but Euripides has ίμβαίνουσα κίλ^υθον in Suppl. 989. 

25. ov κ[ε]ι/ is more euphonious than ουκ [ά]ν, with άνήρ following. 

26. For διερό[ί] after θνατος . . . άνηρ cf. e. g. Homer ζ 2οι άνηρ bupbs βροτόί : the vestige 
of the ο is slight but suitable. Unless there was a flaw in the papyrus, something else besides 
biepos must have been originally written, but sense and metre are complete as the verse stands. 
κα]τα for καψ would not nearly fill the space. 

27. A slight vestige after ναών suits a round letter and is inconsistent with a, so that als 
is excluded. 

29. If ηλΰθ€ is right, [Δαρδαιία]ν (Murray) is the natural restoration, but the accent on 
ηλύθΐ must apparently be corrected (cf. Apollon. De Syni. iii. 7. 33 (p. 213 Bekker) and 
Corinna i. 18 (Berl. Klassikertexte, V. ii, p. 20) έμελ^ει/), and e. g. ηλύθο[ν is Τροία]»» might be 
read ; the plural, however, is less natural. 

30. [1?Γποτρόφυ[ν (cf. the Homeric "Ιλιον (ΰπωλον &c.) suits the space better than 

[ι\πποτρόφο[ι. 

31. |χ]αλκάο-7τ[ιδε$•, »ϊ]« Housman. 

33. [0αίΐ']ε[(] or [χωρ]ε[ΐ] is unconvincing, though palaeographically possible ; [f£e]e seems 



1790. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 83 

objectionable on account of the hiatus, unless this could be excused by the original 
digamma; cf. 1. 5. 

36. Perhaps Ίνδεος υΐ]ος, as Lobel suggests. There should be a mention hereabouts 
of Teucer, to whom the note at the foot of the column refers. Line 35 would be the natural 
place for him, but αρ]γυρος is a difficulty. 

40-1. The reference in this passage mentioning some hero conspicuous for beauty but 
nevertheless surpassed by Troilus as much as copper by gold, remains obscure. Hyllis is 
unknown, except as a name of the nymph 'Apyeia according to Steph. Byz. s. v. Ύλλεϊς. 
Nireus, whose parentage is stated by Homer Β 672, can hardly be meant, nor is e.g. 
Eurypylus (cf. λ 522) suitable. In 1. 40 χρυσός was originally written, and was amended 
by the insertion, possibly by the first hand, of an ε over the line ; a cursive a seems to have 
been subsequently added rather above the level of the ε by some one who took χρυσεος τροφός 
as separate words, — which is indeed possible, though less likely, μ of τροφ[ was converted 
from, probably, a partially formed o. In 1. 41 the spelling of the papyrus in εγψατο 
has been retained, though whether this is a genuine form is open to doubt. 

42. ορείχαλκος was mentioned by Stesichorus according to Schol. Apoll. Rhod. iv. 973 

op. είδος χαλκού . . . μνημονεύει και "Στησίχορος και Βακχυλίδης. IbyCUS and StesichorUS were 

sometimes confused by grammarians (cf. Schneidewin, Ibyc. Reliqu. p. 41 sqq.), but it would 
be rash to assume that the present passage is the one which the scholiast had in mind. 

44. Cf. Theognis 449 ΐίπεφθον χρυσόν. 

4 6-8. In this passage much depends on the punctuation. A logical sentence would 
result from ihe removal of the stop after aUv, with πεδά as the preposition (the accent in the 
papyrus need not imply equivalence to μίτεστι, but may be accounted for by the anastrophe, 
in spite of the intervening μεν). On this view the κάλλος of Polycrates would be the quality 
which the poet desired to commemorate, and his identity with the tyrant would become 
questionable. On the whole, however, it seems preferable to follow the clear punctuation 
of the original, which gives a satisfactory sense and accords better with the attribution, on 
other grounds plausible, to Ibycus. τόϊς ph . . . aUv is then poetic language for ' they will 
always be remembered for their beauty '. 

Πο(υ)λύκρατίς is necessary if the metre is to correspond ; cf. Pindar, Nem. vi. 70 

ϋουλυτιμίδαν. 

49 sqq. This note relating apparently to Teucer and the horses of Laomedon pre- 
sumably was intended to explain something in 11. 35-40, but at present remains itself 
obscure, though restoration should not be difficult if the right clue were found. In 1. 49 
[Καλλ]ψαχο$• appears the most likely name, and the ilept Τεύκρου may have been included 
among his υπομνήματα but is not otherwise known. The dash between two dots at the end 
of this line seems too large and too far from the rest of the note to be intended as an 
abbreviation of εστί, and is therefore regarded as a symbol corresponding to another in the 
margin of the line to which the note was attached. What has been taken for a dash after 
φησι may possibly be the top of an e. 

50. κ(ατα)λαβ[ΐΙν) is very uncertain, especially as other abbreviations do not occur in 
this note, but is not unsuited to the remains, and an infinitive is apparently wanted. Perhaps 
χάρϊ\ν preceded τοΰ. 

5i. Ύ(ϋκρος in some form seems inevitable, but the termination is very doubtful. 

52. Possibly άλλα, but a longer word would account better for the vestiges. 

Fr. 4. ii. 6. αύχα[ is possible.

lines is not certain, since the margin is lost, but if a letter had preceded φ in 1. 7 some 
portion of it should be visible. In 1. 2, if e was the second letter in the line, the first was 
a narrow one. 

4-5. άιθ . . . απ -e apparently correspond, whether μ or at is written. όιμ[ can be read 
in 1. 4. 

Fr. 7. 2. κτν\π . ., δι]κτν . . . ? 

Fr. 8. 3. The supposed grave accent is possibly the second half of a circumflex. 



1791. Pindar, Paean. 

9-9x4-1 cm. First century. Plate III. 

This small but interesting fragment gives the context of two well-known 
lines cited from Pindar by Pausanias (Fr. 53 Schroder), the text of which is now 
finally established. The passage refers to the second and third temples at 
Delphi, and the Delphian story (Pausan. x. 5. 9) that the former of these temples 
was sent to the Hyperboreans is reflected in 11. 1-2, while the latter is described 
at greater length in 11. 3-9. Built by Hephaestus, 'of bronze stood the walls 
and even so of bronze the pillars, and six golden Charmers sang above the 
gable'. Its destruction by a thunderbolt was related in the broken lines 10-12. 
A strophic division is marked at this point and the subject apparently changes, 
but the lower part of the papyrus is much damaged and only isolated words are 
recognizable. No responsion can be traced between 11. 1-12 and 13-20, and one 
or other of these sections presumably belonged to the epode. The metrical 
scheme, so far as it can be followed, is fairly simple; in 11. 1-12 short lines seem 
to preponderate, and several glyconic verses are included. That Fr. 53 came 
from the Paeans is stated by Galen, who also quotes it. 

The text, which is from the top of a column, is in small upright uncials of 
somewhat informal type to which approximations are found among the better- 
written Oxyrhynchite contracts of the late first and early second centuries ; cf. 
e. g. 270 (Part II, Plate 8), which, however, is probably rather later than 1791. 
No stops, accents, or other signs occur except the paragraphus below line 12. 
Decipherment is difficult in places owing to the loss of the upper fibres of the 
papyrus. A junction between two selides runs down the middle of the 
fragment.

λωνοί. In 1. ι the papyrus strongly suggests τον, but the ν is not impossible and seems 
essential for the construction. In 1. 2 ζαμενης ep£[ or ΐζαμενησε μιξ[ could be read, but the 
vestiges between e and μ are extremely slight ; ενμενης, however, appears unsuitable. The 
first letter of the line is either a, 8, or λ, and the third may well be ρ ; the fifth looks at first 
sight like e, but this is not convincing, and a crossed out t might have a similar effect. 
Υπερβορ[(οισιν ev-\ Xvpafctjs εζαμ*νησε μιξ[α: would be consistent with the remains. The subject 
in any case is presumably Apollo. 

3. τον is clear, but του depending on μνθμο? would be easier. Perhaps τον and τον here 
and in 1. 1 were transposed by an oversight ; cf. n. on 11. 1-2.

tus χρνσας, ά δη Πίνδαρος jjaev eV (Κΐίνω τω ναω, xpvaeai κτλ. (11. 8—9, Pindar Fr. 53)• The 

two verses are also quoted by Galen on Hippocr. De artic. 18. i, p. 519 Kiihn. Scholars 
have successfully treated the corruptions found in Pausanias and Galen, and the fragment 
as printed by Schroder corresponds with the text here, except that he has mistakenly 
preferred Bergk's l^epff to Schneidewin's l£ ίιπίρ, which the papyrus now confirms, ρνθμος 
in 1. 5 = σχήμα ; the word does not occur elsewhere in Pindar. 

IO—I2. Cf. Pausan. X. 5• * 2 °^ P*l p ov ^e τρόπον οντινα άφανισθήναι συνίπ^σε τω ναω κατά 
ταύτα είρημενα εύρισκαν' κα\ yap is χάσμα yrjs ΐκπίσΐϊν αυτόν και νπό πνρο5 τακήναι λίγονσιν. 

Pindar's version does not seem to agree closely with either of these, but the reading is 
uncertain in several places. In 1. 10 the letter before ρ looks more like η than anything 
else, though the space is rather narrow, ι is hardly possible, σ could be read in place of 
e before τη. In 1. 1 1 we may divide χθον αν o[ or χθονα vo[, and the last letter may be either 
ο or ω. In 1. 1 2 the space is indecisive between (κρ[ι]ψ and ι?/φ[υ]ψ•, and the termination 
can be -tat or -ev. The following vestiges are ambiguous, but those of the second letter 
rather suggest π or τ, and with the former there need be no letter before the doubtful a, e. g. 
άπάντω[ς is possible; αφαντω[ is clearly excluded. 

13. The slight vestiges are consistent with Ams, after which either aya[ or αγλ[ may be 
read. The latter seems the more likely here, whether written with a capital or not. For 

Αγλαία cf. 01. XIV. 1 9 πότνι Ά. φιλησίμολπί τ Ευφρόσυνα and Fr. 1 99 ΜοΊσα και Ά. ; but άγλ[α- 

may of course be another adjective, e. g. άγλ[αόθρονοι {κόραι ?), for which cf. 01. xiii. 96 

Μοίσαις aykao6povois. 

14. £e is very doubtful ; the first letter is possibly δ. There may be two letters 
between ο and φ, but if so the first of them is probably 1, which might indeed be sufficient 
by itself. The remains after φ suggest e. ΐφ υμνον is inadmissible. 

15. Ttav av[ or τ(χναν[ looks likely. 

16. What has been taken for the upper part of a φ is possibly the base of a letter 



86 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

following ν at the end of the preceding line, in which case ο {repevo\ys ?) would be probable 
in place of φ. 

1 7. This is another rather puzzling line. Either μον or . ων is possible, and if any 
letter stood between a and κ, it is likely to be ι ; there seems hardly room for σ or 7, and 
ανάγκη would of course be a false form. At the end of the line μναν appears inevitable, μναμ 
being unsuitable. 

18. For λυσιμβροτος, which Occurs only here, cf. όλεσίμβροτος, φθισίμβροτος, &c. ; in 

Tryphiod. 437 λνσήνωρ is an epithet of ohos. 

19. Cf. Pyth. V. 32 άκη par on avian.

1792. Pindar, Paean ?. 

Fr. 1 16-9 χ 13-7 cm. Second century. 

The following fragments, of which only one, itself built up from several 
smaller pieces, is at all substantial, are written in a good-sized, rather heavy, 
semicursive hand which may be referred to the first half of the second century. 
Stops in two positions are used, and (besides the diaeresis) breathings, accents, and 
marks of elision and quantity have been supplied here and there. Many of these 
have the appearance of being by the original hand, which was no doubt also 
responsible for the occasional diplac in the margin and the interlinear asterisk in 
Fr. 47 ; but some, e.g. the elision-sign in Fr. 1. 14, are in a lighter ink and may 
well proceed from the corrector who altered the termination of the verb in the 
same line and is evidently to be distinguished.

That the author is Pindar is not definitely ascertained, but style and 
vocabulary seem sufficiently characteristic to justify that ascription. Ιττ]ποσόα 
θν[γάτηρ in Fr. 51 is a remarkable coincidence with a Pindaric collocation, and 
other linguistic parallels are pointed out in the notes ; the reference to the 
Boeotian Πτωον in Fr. 47 is also not without significance. The class of poem 
represented is still less certain ; the passage in Fr. 1 describing the birth of the 
twin offspring of Zeus and Leto would be appropriate in a Paean for the Delians, 
but other categories are by no means excluded. As for the metre, whether the 
verses in Fr. 1 belong to one or more systems is not clear ; a paragraphus occurs 
in Fr. 35, but no strophic division is marked in Fr. 1 among the few lines of which 
the beginnings are preserved.

Ft. 1. 2. eV ve[ : eWe[a, ερνφΓ . .? 

3. Perhaps [άπ]αλά, but a single broad letter, e. g. κ, μ, might fill the initial lacuna. 



4-5. If the subject is singular, άμφεπό[λει . . . δρεπ[ων] or -7τ[ουσ*] seems likely ; cf. Nem. 
viii. 10 λίκτρον . . . άμήκπόλησαν. But the verb in 1. 4 may be άμφεπειν, which is combined 

with δρεπειν in 01. i. 19—20 άμφεπει σκαπτον . . ., δρέπων μεν κορυφάς. Whether the word 
preceding δρ«π[ is an adjective {Υνμνησιος, πρνμνησιοί) ΟΙ" a Substantive (νμνησις, γύμνησις (?), 

μνήσις) is not clear. The remains of the first letter are slight, and e or σ is also possible. 

5-17. ' . . . and also brought from Naxos sacrifices of fat sheep for all the Graces to 
the Cynthian cliff where they say the cloud-wrapped wielder of the glancing thunder-bolts, 
Zeus, sitting on the peaks watched for the time when the gentle daughter of Coeus was 
delivered of her sweet travail ; and when her twin children came forth to the light of day 
shining like the sun, Eileithyia and Lachesis sent from their throats a great clamour.' 

5. What has been taken for the tail of a φ might be an acute accent on the t of θυσι[, 
which, however, is less likely on account of the infrequency of accents in the papyrus. 

9. άργιβρενταν : the word is novel, but cf. 01. viii. 3 Αώς apyixepavvov. A further con- 
firmation is here provided of the form άναξιβρέντας in Bacchyl. xvi (xvii). 66 ; cf. the n. 
ad loc. on 1091. 

12. άγανόφρων, like κίλαινίφη? in 1. 9, is Homeric (y* 467). 

13. Κοίου θυγάτηρ at the beginning of a line occurs also in 841. 19. 22 (meaning 

Asteria). For τΐρπνάς ωδ'ινος cf. 01. vi. 43 ωδίνος eparas. 

14. The v. 1. (τερπνας) ωδ'ινας does not commend itself, (λαμψαν . , . όπόη is -a rather 
awkward inversion and the corruption έλαμψε is hardly surprising, though it leaves δίδυμοι 
παίδες without a verb. 

15. Cf. e.g. 01. vi. 43-4 ηλθεν δ' υπό σπλάγχνων . . . e's φάυς, Nem. i. 35 - 6 σπλάγχνων 
υπο . . . θαητάν is αϊγλαν . . . μόλεν. 

1 6. ' Raised cries of joy' is evidently the sense, and if ροθ is right πολύν ρόθον ΐεσαν 
becomes inevitable, though it is difficult to reconcile the traces after ροθ[ο] with a v. There 
are also, rather to the right of these, some vestiges above the line which are not very 
satisfactorily regarded as a rough breathing on t. For ρό6[ο]ι> cf. 841. vi. 128 άοιδάν ρόθια. 
θρόον, which might be thought a more natural word here, cannot be read. 

17-18. Either Te'XfjYjat or re'Xem is possible, presumably referring to the two deities (cf. 
e. g. 01. xiii. 115 Z«0 τέλει , Nem. x. 18 "Ηβα τελεία πάρα ματερι), but 6[εαί] is inadmissible in 
1. 18, where the slight remains would be consistent with e. g. an α followed by a letter with 
a vertical first stroke. 

19. Perhaps [άν]εφθ.

2ΐ. Possibly ακται, but the ι is joined by a ligature which is too low for the normal at 
of this hand, and suggests rather δ, κ, or χ. The preceding letter might well be ν or v, 
besides r. . . 

22. yoi» or τον is certain, and if the ρ is right either pay or pw is likely. ] αμφι is 
unsuitable. Ink is visible above the remains of the first letter, but whether it represents 
a diacritical mark or a correction is quite uncertain. 

23. op was followed by some round letter. 

Prs. 2-4. That these three small pieces are from the bottom of Fr. 1 is strongly 
suggested by their similar appearance, and this position is practically assured for Fr. 4b}' 
the junction of two selides in the syllable «$ of πολλάκις corresponding with a similar 
junction through the π of οπο[ in Fr. 1. 14; but Fr. 4 does not seem to join on 
immediately. 

Fr. 5. 1. The diple is probable but not certain. 

Fr. β. ι. νμ[, υλ[ would be suitable. 

Fr. 10. 2-3. Line 3 apparently ended at ω, and ov may be the end of 1. 2. 

Fr. 16. Cf. 841. vi. 134-6 [ί]π Άσ[ώ]που . . . α[να]ρίψατο παρβένον. In 1. 2 here the 
doubtful τ can be π, but of course this may be quite fortuitous and e. g. i6p]tyaro is an 
obvious alternative. 

Fr. 24. 2. ά Ρ ιστοπο[ν . . (cf. 01. vii. 51) would be suitable. 

Fr. 30. This fragment and Frs. 34-5 are alike in being of a rather dark colour. 
Frs. 31-2 and 36 have a more worn appearance. Cf. Frs. 67-8.^ In Frs. 31 and 34 there 
are junctions of selides, but the pieces cannot be directly combined. 

Fr. 31. 4. Perhaps ]ov Aio[s ; but the letters can be variously interpreted. 

Fr. 32. 8. The fourth letter may also be φ or ω. 

Fr. 35. 3. A strophic division is denoted by the paragraphus below this line. 

Fr. 36. 3. The overwritten ι may be due to the first hand. 

Fr. 38. This fragment is a good deal rubbed, as are also Frs. 39, 41, 43.

which is otherwise similar in appearance. 

2. θ may be the particle and νποκρ[ may of course be divided υπο κρ[*

9 8 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

Fr. 47. 2. Cf. Pindar Fr. 51 b, d τρικάρανον Ώτωΐου ιανύμωνα. There was a shrine of 
Dionysus here, and a temple of Apollo close by (Pausan. ix. 23. 6). The large asterisk 
below this line apparently takes the place of or supplements a marginal coronis in marking 
the commencement of a new poem. 

Fr. 50. 1. ai]6tpi[ or ]aept[ could be read. 

3. πα]σσαλο[ is rather suggested by φθο]γγον in the following line; cf. 01. i. 17 άπ6 

φόρμιγγα πάσσαλου λάμβαν , 1361. i. 1-2 ο> βάρβιτε, μηκετι πάσσαΚον φυλάσ[σων] έπτάτονον λιγνραν 
κάππαυί γαρνν ; but θε]σσαλο[ is of course possible. 

51. 3. The coincidence with 01. iii. 26 Aarovs Ιπποσόα θνγ. was observed by Lobel. 

Fr. 52. 2. The first letter is probably δ, λ, or μ. 

Fr. 55. 2. The supposed mark of quantity is very doubtful, and may equally well be 
a breathing or a vestige of an interlinear letter. The second a may be δ. 

Fr. 67. Either there is a junction of selides in this fragment, which in appearance 
resembles Frs. 32 and 36, or the papyrus has been strengthened by a strip gummed on the 
back. Fr. 68 is rather similar, though less worn. 

3. It is not clear that any trace of writing is to be recognized in this line. 



1793. CALLIMACHUS, Sosibi Victoria. 

Height 10 cm. Late first century. 

Callimachus after a long period of neglect has latterly been much in evidence 
in the papyri (cf. 1362 int.), 1 and a further considerable addition is made by 
the present papyrus, which introduces us to a poem of which but three words 
were known (see vi. 7, n.), though one or two lines, cited without specification of 
their source and now shown to belong to it, were in fact already extant. This, as 
first perceived by Mr. Lobel, who has contributed much to the elucidation of the 
text, is the elegiac poem in honour of the victory of Sosibius alluded to in Athen. iv, 
p. 144 e Θεόφραστος εν τω irpbs Kaaavbpov περί βασιλείας (ει γνήσιον το σύγγραμμα' 
πολλοί γαρ αυτό φασιν εΧναι Σωσιβίου, εις ον Καλλίμαχος 6 ποιητής εττινίκιον ελεγειακον 
«ποίησε), τους Περσών φησι βασιλείς κτλ. and called in Schol. Lycophr. Alex. 523 (ed. 
Scheer) Σωσιβίου νίκη. The identification seems sufficiently established by the 
occurrence of the name Sosibius in v. 1, and the general tenor of the piece, which 
is full of references to games, prizes, victories, and dedications ; see vi. 1-3, 
vii. 2, 7, viii. J-5, ix. 4-7, x. 1. Who Sosibius was is not agreed. He has 
commonly been thought to be the same as the Lacedaemonian grammarian 
designated λυτικός or επιλύτικος (Athen. xi. 493 c, Suid. s. v.), who was attached to 
the Alexandrian Museum under Philadelphus and wrote treatises on Spartan 
rites, on chronology, the poet Alcman, &c. (so e. g. Hecker, Com. Call. p. 66). 

1 A convenient edition of the new fragments is now available in Lietzmann's Kleine Texte, 145. 



1793- NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 99 

Schneider (ii, p. 220) questions this view partly on the ground of the a priori 
improbability that such a man would figure as an athletic victor, partly because 
the reference in Athen. iv. 144 to the Sosibius ' to whom Callimachus wrote an 
epinician elegiac poem ' seemed to differentiate that Sosibius from his homonym 
whom Athenaeus elsewhere (iii. 78 c, xi. 493 e) speaks of as δ λυπ /cos or δ Λάκων. 
For these reasons, which are plausible enough (though with regard to the second it 
may be noted in xv. 690 e Athenaeus mentions probably the same grammarian 
with no descriptive epithet), Schneider preferred to regard Sosibius as some 
wealthy Alexandrian, perhaps an ancestor of the well-known minister of 
Philopator. He appears to have overlooked a very suitable person, Sosibius of 
Tarentum, who is mentioned by Josephus, Ant. xii. 2. 2, as one of the captains 
of the bodyguard of Philadelphus and a courtier of some influence. Whether any 
relationship subsisted between that Sosibius and the \j/evb επίτροπος of Philopator 
is quite problematical; it has been suggested that they were father and son, 
but the father of the ψενίςπίτροπος was more probably Dioscurides (Foucart, 
B. C. H. iv, pp. 97-8). In any case, if, as would naturally be supposed, Col. x. 1-5 
of the papyrus refer to the man in whose honour the poem was composed, the 
Laconian is practically put out of court. The wealthy and powerful personage 
there described can scarcely be the grammarian who accepted the royal alimony 
(Athen. xi. 493 c) ; Josephus' captain of the bodyguard has better claims to 
consideration, though the attribution to him of the treatise πρδ$ Kaaavbpov would 
hardly be expected. Sosibius' success seems to have consisted in a double victory 
at the Isthmian and the Nemean games ; cf. vii. 1-4 and nn., and the reference 
to Corinth in vi. 4—6. Hecker's conjecture that Callim. Fr. 193 Ζηνί re και Νβμό; τι 
χαρίσιον Zbvov όφάλω was the exordium of this poem is thus consistent with the 
new evidence, but remains very uncertain. 

As now reconstituted the papyrus consists of the tops of ten columns, of 
which the last eight, and perhaps all ten, were consecutive, the tenth being also 
the last of the roll. A . few small fragments, also from the tops of columns, 
are unplaced ; they presumably belonged to the much broken first two, or to 
an intermediate column, if there was one, between Cols, ii and iii. The roll 
has evidently been subjected to severe pressure, causing the layers sometimes 
to adhere tightly and the ink to leave more or less legible impressions on the 
back of adjacent portions ; by this means the order of some fragments, which 
could otherwise not have been certainly placed, has been fixed, and some 
missing letters have been supplied. With regard to the original compass of the 
roll, and the length of the poem on Sosibius, these are problems which depend 
on the view taken as to the number of poems represented in the present 
remnants. Col. iii happens to include (1. 2) the half line πρίν αστέρι τω Βερενίκης 

Η 2 



ιοο THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

cited from Callimachus by Achilles Statius and assigned by Schneider and others 
to the poem on the Lock of Berenice which was translated by Catullus. That 
attribution, however, is by no means certain ; it was rejected by Valckenaer, 
who first drew attention to the fragment, on the ground that the version of 
Catullus shows no corresponding phrase. Schneider evaded the objection by 
the argument that αστέρι Βερενίκης was a periphrasis for εμοί and was simplified 
by Catullus to mihi j(l. 83 ; cf. n. on iii. 2, where the passage is quoted). 
Unfortunately Col. iii is badly mutilated, and what remains of the context of 
1. 2 is indecisive ; it is, however, noteworthy that the preceding verse ends with 
a feminine plural participle -άμεναι, which might well correspond to nudantes 
in Catullus (1. 81), and that if κλά ... in 1. 3 is κλίνη, that too, though not 
translated literally, could be interpreted in a sense conforming to the Latin. 
A mention of the άστηρ Βερενίκης in an epinician poem to Sosibius is, at the 
least, unexpected ; moreover, there is a second reference to Berenice in v. 6, 
and another to her father, Magas, king of Cyrene, in v. 2. Perhaps, then, 
Col. iii contained the conclusion of the Βερενίκης πλόκαμος, and the poem on 
Sosibius did not begin till after v. 6, being separated from the πλόκαμος 
by a shorter elegiac piece. On the other hand, it may be argued that the 
praises of Sosibius may easily have been coupled with those of more important 
personages, and that if the poem addressed to him included a passage referring 
to the king (viii. 5 sqq.) it may equally have included others relating to the

1795. Acrostic Epigrams. 

Col. ii 22-3 χ 1 7-8 cm. First century. 

Three fragments from two columns, one of which is practically complete, 
containing epigrams of precisely the same kind as those in 15, and perhaps 
belonging to the same collection. Eacg in the pay of Darius. 
Cols, ii-iv are concerned with the battle of Issus, which took place in the autumn 
of the same year. A large lacuna intervenes between this and Fr. 45, which 
mentions Alexander's passage of the Euphrates preparatory to the battle of 
Arbela in September, 331 B.C. In the interval occurred the capture of 
Damascus, the sieges of Tyre and Gaza, and the expedition into Egypt, to the 
last three of which twelve chapters were given by Diodorus ; an allowance of as 
many columns in the papyrus would certainly not be disproportionately large. 
The remaining fragments are insignificant. 

To the identity of the writer a clue remains to be found. Since these 
fragments, so far as their contents are recognizable, are all directly concerned 
with Alexander, it is a natural assumption that they come from one of the many 
chronicles, historical or romantic, devoted to the career of that striking personality 
rather than from a history of wider scope. The main Greek authorities for 
Alexander are of course Diodorus, Arrian, and Plutarch, and on the battle of 
Issus, with which the principal fragment of the papyrus is mostly concerned, we 
have also the statements of Callisthenes which are criticized by Polybius xii. 
j 7 sqq. ; but with none of these are any marks of affinity discoverable. On the 
other hand, there are two clear coincidences with the Roman Quintus Curtius 
Rufus, an obscure personality whose monograph on Alexander is commonly 
attributed to the first century A. D. The papyrus agrees precisely with Curtius 
against Arrian and Plutarch as to the terms of the bribe said to have been offered 
to the physician Philip by Darius, and, what is more interesting, reaffirms more 
circumstantially the statement that Alexander on the eve of the battle of Issus 
was overcome by an attack of nerves (see nn. on Fr. 44. i. 8-10, ii. 6 sqq., 15). 
A reason given in Fr. 44. iii. 18-19 for abandoning the pursuit of Darius 
but not elsewhere recorded, may also be glanced at by Curtius ; cf. n. ad loc. 
These coincidences imply either that our author was known to Curtius or 
that they had a common source; the supposition that the papyrus drew on 
Curtius is too improbable to need consideration. Curtius' sources have been 
discussed at length by J. Kaerst in Beilr. z. Quellenkritik des Q. Curtius Rufus 
and Forschungen z. Gesch. Alexanders, and more recently by E. Schwartz in 
Pauly-Wissowa, Realencycl. iv. 1 871 sqq., and Ruegg, Beitr. z. Erforschung dcr 



Γ24 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

Quellenverhaltnisse in d. Alexaudergesch. des Cur tins. The authority on whom 
Curtius principally depended, according to the current view, was Clitarchus, but 
since the same authority was closely followed by Diodorus, with whom no 
connexion is traceable in 1798, this clearly cannot be the connecting link between 
1798 and Curtius. It is. however, recognized that Curtius employed other 
sources, which as distinguished from those of Arrian and Plutarch are considered 
to be secondary and comparatively late (cf. Schwartz, op. cit. 1876) ; but what 
precisely they were is not known. 

Curtius, then, is not rated as high-class company, and agreement with him 
against others will not establish a prejudice in favour of such statements as are 
peculiar to the papyrus. Of these the most significant is the estimate given of 
the numbers slain in the battle of Issus ; this more than doubles the highest total 
found elsewhere for the Macedonian and approximately halves that for the 
Persian side ; cf. n. on Fr. 44. iv. 9 sqq. Whatever may be thought of the 
historical value of these figures, they serve, like the description of Alexander's 
state of mind before the battle,to throw some light on the author's standpoint : 
the tendency to depreciate Alexander is less definitely affirmable than of Curtius, 
but evidently the aim was not glorification. Their claim to attention, however, 
is increased by the fact that the papyrus, alone among ancient authorities, 
estimates separately the loss of the mercenaries in the Persian service. It has 
been suggested by Kaerst (Cesch. des Hellenismus, i, p. 522), in agreement with 
Ranke, that the sources of Diodorus included information derived from Darius' 
Greek mercenaries. That theory now finds in 1798, which might here have the 
same source behind it, a certain support. Other points elsewhere unrecorded 
in connexion with the battle are the preliminary prayers and sacrifices to 
Poseidon, Thetis, Nereus, and the Nereids (Fr. 44. ii ; see n. on 11. 9-1 1), and 
the anecdote about the slice of bread with which the conqueror had to satisfy his 
hunger next day (ibid. iv). The story of Philip the physician follows familiar 
lines, but no other account attributes to the incriminating letter of Parmenion 
the unworthy motive of private hostility, a statement pointing to an anti- 
Parmenion bias, which is traceable also in Diodorus and Curtius and goes back 
not improbably to Clitarchus. The fragment (1) referring apparently to the death 
of Philip of Macedon shows a marked divergence from the ordinary version 
of that episode, and it is highly unfortunate that more of the narrative is not 
preserved. 

In form this writer is clear and straightforward, if somewhat monotonous. 
be is his favourite connecting particle, and there is but one instance of the genitive 
absolute ; a certain partiality to the historic present is noticeable (Fr. 44. i. 5, 16, 
Fr. 45. 6). To hiatus he is indifferent. Some eccentricities like the poetical 



1798. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 



I2 5 



spelling άποτυπανίζαν may be due to copyists, but the form άνελά (Fr. 44. i. 12) 
is not without significance, suggesting that the date of composition, though 
it may well be posterior to the Augustan age, was at any rate little in 
advance of it.

Fr. 1. The mention of a theatre in 1. 2, in conjunction with the burial of .]ιπττου in 
11. 8-10, leaves little room for doubt that this fragment refers to the death of Philip, but the 
details are unfamiliar. Philip's assassin was Pausanias (Diodor. xvi. 94, Justin ix. 6), for 
whose name there seems to be here no place ; moreover, according to Diodorus he was 
pursued and killed forthwith by ot nep\ τον Πίρδίκκαν who συγκεντήσαντίς aveiKov. Apparently, 
then, the object of απ€τνπαν[ισαν is some other person, whose identity is obscure; cf. Justin xi. 2. 1 
Prima Mi cura paternarum exsequiarum fuit ; in quibus ante omnia caedis conscios ad 
tumulum pain's occidi iussit. 

1 sqq. The length of the lacunae is estimated on the basis of 11. 8-10, which can be 

restored with probability. In 11. 1-4 tovs μ[ήν | [ev τωι θ]εατ[ρ]ωι κα\[θημεν]ου5 απ([λν\[σ( tovs 

(or Tots) 8]e may be suggested. 

5. ]tv : ]ωι> is not possible, and ]av is unlikely. The doubtful μ may be λ. 

6. Both this line and 1. 9 look as if they were complete at the end, but there is not 
margin enough to be certain. If 1. 6 ended with -ice, it was rather shorter than its 
neighbours. 

7. The spelling άποτυπανίζω seems to be novel ; τύπανον is a poetic form. 

Fr. 2. This fragment, like the preceding, has lost both margins, but the point ot 
division of the lines is fixed by 11. 7-8, where the restoration is certain, and on that basis 
the other lacunae have been estimated. Most of the fragment, if not all of it, is occupied 
by a quotation in hexameters referring to Thebes, brought in no doubt in connexion with 
Alexander's destruction of the city. Owing to the aorist in 1. 6 it is not likely to be 
oracular; Kv\iae[i] would not fill the lacuna. 

3. The vestige after σ is indecisive ; ι or e would be suitable, but other vowels are not 
excluded. 

4. β is preceded by a vertical stroke consistent with η, t, v, and is followed by the base 
of another short vertical stroke ; θ]ηβη[ would be quite suitable. 

6. Cf. Homer Ρ 688 πήμα &os ΔαναοΊσι κυλίνδΐΐ, C. I. G. 62 80 A 35 arvyeprjv Be κυΚινδήσίΐ 
κακότητα. 

p. The first letter is more probably δ than β. τ apvas is recommended by the apparent 
repetition of re, but whether apvas or Apvas should be written is not clear ; cf. Homer Β 507 
(τάρνην ap. Strabo 413). 

10. No compound -oipoapos (e. g. wSoipoapos) is known. 

n. The first letter was η, ι, or ν, and δρη was preceded by one of the same three 
letters. 

Fr. 3. 3. If βαιων is right, θη\βαιων is the natural restoration, but θαι ων is possible. 
This fragment differs in appearance from Fr. 2, but is very similar to Fr. 4. 

Frs. 5-6. These fragments were combined after the text was in type, and the 
numeration was therefore retained.

ii. 6. Σπιθα[ρα8ατ . . : this is evidently the son-in-law of Darius and satrap of 
Lydia (or Ionia) whose name is spelled Σπιθροβάτης by Diodor. xvii. 19, 20, Σπιθρώάτης by 
Arrian i. 15, 16 and Plutarch, Alex. 16. 

9. μ[ is represented by a very slight vestige which, however, well suits that letter. 

17. •ψ• = 2,300; cf. 852. 25 n. For other instances of stichometry in prose papyri 
cf. e.g. 1364. 188, P. Grenf. II. 11. ii. 4. 

Pr. 7. 3. τον ιτήπον : perhaps a reference to Bucephalas, but the fragment is too small 
to be understood. 

Fr. 10. 6. If the reading is correct, « has been amended to eir, but es is by no means 
clear, nor is it certain that the t is by another hand. 

Fr. 12. 4. ά\η]θινον is suggested by <vav[ in the preceding line, but \ι]θινον would also 
be suitable. 

Pr. 17. 4. Some case of c\aTi\vos presumably. 

Pr. 18. There was a junction between two selides near the right-hand edge of this 
strip, the surface of which is worn, as also is that of Frs. 19, 20, and 22. 

6. Αλέ^ανδρ . . is one of many possibilities. 

Pr. 21. Like Fr. 18, this piece shows a junction between selides along the right-hand 
edge, but the appearance of the two fragments is otherwise not very similar. 

Pr. 22. 3. This was apparently the last line of a column. 

Fr. 24. 3. Perhaps 0λν[μπιαΒα, either as the mother of Alexander or a date. 

Fr. 25. ι. α or a round letter like e or σ is probable after t. 

Pr. 36. Ι. π]ανσα: 0Γ possibly π]ανσα\νιας ; cf. n. on Fr. I. 

Fr. 44. i. 1-16. '(Philip was induced?) to try a medicine. When he was about to 
give it, Parmenion, who had a quarrel with Philip, wrote to Alexander bidding him beware 
of Philip to whom he heard Darius was offering a thousand talents and his own sister in 
marriage as the price of the king's destruction. Alexander received the letter, and suppressing 
it drank the medicine . . .' 

1 sqq. Cf. Plutarch, Alex. 19, Arrian ii. 4. 12, Curtius iii. 6, Justin xi. 8 ; Diodorus 
xvii. 31 is more concise and does not mention the letter of Parmenion. For [επιχ€ΐρ]ησΐΐν cf. 
Plutarch, /. c. επιχείρησε φαρμακεία, but αυτόν may mean Alexander (cf. Arrian, /. c. καθηραι

barbarians, while the Persians held the Macedonians in contempt. When he saw that 
the decision was imminent Alexander was in a torment of suspense and had recourse

to prayer, calling on Thetis and the Nereids and Nereus and Poseidon, for the last of whom 
he ordered that a four-horse chariot should be brought and cast into the sea; and he offered 
sacrifices by night

11. 6. 8 καταπατησειν τε rrj ϊππω των Μακεδόνων την στρατών άλλος αλλοθεν αυτω (sc. Ααρείωί) επαίροντες

population, της μεν των Μακβδ. όλιγότητος καταφρονήσαντες, τό δε πλήθος της των ΤΙερσ. στρατιάς 

καταπεπληγμίνοι. Panic is not, however, attributed to the Macedonians in other Greek 
sources; as Kaerst remarks (Gesch. des Hellenismus, p. 364^, it cannot be inferred from 
Arrian ii. 7. 5 παρεκαλεϊ θαρρεΊν, though it may be hinted at by Diodor. xvii. 33. ι των δε 

κατάσκοπων απαγγειλάντων . . . τον Ααρεΐον . . . ττ/ δυνάμει προσιεναι καταπληκτικώς '. cf. Justin XI. Ο. 3

2-3. εξηκοντα . . . μυριαδε[ς] : so Arrian ii. 8. 9, Plutarch, Alex. 18. Diodor. xvii. 31. 2 
puts the Persian infantry at over 400,000, the cavalry at 100,000 at least, and Justin gives 
similar figures at this point (xi. 9. 1). though he had shortly before (6. 11) stated the number 
of the Persian army as 600,000. 

4-5. See n. on 1. 1 above. 

6 sqq. Cf. Curt. iii. 8. 20 Ceterum, ut solet fieri cum ultimi discriminis tempus adven/af, 
in sollicitudinem versa fidiccia est. Illam ipsam fortunam, qua adspirante res tam prospere 
gesseral, verebaiur . . . ipse in iugum editi montis escendit multisque conlucentibus facibus patrio 
more sacrificium dis praesidibus loci fecit. Kaerst, /. c, pronounces the statement of Curtius 
to be worthless, and that of Diodor. xvii. 33. 1 that Alexander regarded the approach of the 
enemy as a heaven-sent opportunity to be ' an sich angemessener ' ; cf. Plutarch, Alex. 20. 
But the one does not necessarily exclude the other, and some anxiety on the eve of this 
critical battle would be only natural. Justin goes further in speaking of actual fear (metum 
xi. 9. 3), which is not involved in sollicitudo nor αγωνία, the latter being attributed to 
Alexander on several occasions by Diodorus ; cf. xvii. 31. 4, 56. 3, 116. 4 (we owe these 
references to Mr. W. W. Tarn). 

9— II. Cf. e.g. Plutarch, Alex. 33 παρεκάλει τους θεούς, ως Καλλισθένης φησίν, επευχόμενος 

. . . άμΰναι. The choice of deities on the present occasion is somewhat surprising, even when 
allowance is made for the proximity of the sea (cf. Curt. /. c. dis praesidibus loci) and the 
legendary descent of Alexander from Thetis and Nereus. As Mr. Tarn observes, this story 
looks like an adaptation from another occasion when the invocation of marine gods is 
recorded in a more appropriate setting; cf. Nearchus ap. Arrian, Ind. 18. 11, where when 
starting down the Hydaspes Alexander sacrifices to Poseidon, Amphitrite, the Nereids, &c. 
(this no doubt is a genuine instance), and Anab. i. 11. 10, where he is said to have made 
libations to Poseidon and the Nereids when crossing the Hellespont. 

15. εσφ[αγια]ζετο δε και νυκτι : cf. the passage of Curtius cited in the n. on 11. 6 sqq. 
Sacrifice is repeatedly mentioned by the historians of Alexander, and according to Arrian 
vii. 25. 2 it was his daily habit. 

iii. 1-19. ' . . . (first) the Persians took to flight, then the rest of the barbarian host 
and after them the mercenaries. The cavalry were pursued by Alexander's cavalry and the 
infantry by his infantry, and the plain was filled with corpses. A large number of the 
Macedonians fell on the barbarian camp, which was full of treasure of all kinds, in order to 
plunder the contents. But Alexander desiring to capture Darius pursued him at full speed ; 
when he learned, however, that he . . .' 

1-3. 1. e. g. εις φυγην ωρμη]σαν, which happens to be the phrase of Diodorus at this

THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 



point (xvii. 34. 7). The statement here is in substantial agreement with the account of 
Arrian ii. 10-11, who says that Darius fled as soon as he saw his left wing giving way, but 
that the Greek mercenaries in the centre stood their ground and fought well until attacked 
on their exposed left flank. 

7-8. Cf. Diodor. xvii. 34. 9 πας 6 συνεχής τόπος νεκρών νπληρωθη, but this was a con- 
ventional phrase which reappears e.g. xvii. 61. 2. 

Q— T5. Cf. Diodor. xvii. 35. I—2 oi δε Μακεδόνες παυσάμενοι τοΰ διωγμού προς άρπαγην 
ωρμησαν και μάλιστα περί τας βασιλικας σκηνας δια το πλήθος της πολυτελείας ησχολοΰντο, κτλ., 
Plutarch, Alex. 20 κατέλαβε τους Μακεδόνας τον μεν άλλον πλοΰτον εκ τοΰ βαρβαρικοί) στρατοπέδου 
φέροντας και άγοντος υπερβάλλοντα πληθει, CurtlUS ϋΐ. II. 20. 

18. δρ]ομου : the vestiges do not suggest o, but are not inconsistent with the irregular 
formation of that letter as sometimes found in this text. με\χρι .] . λλου could be read. 

18-19. According to Diodor. xvii. 35. 1, Arrian ii. 11. 8, Curtius iii. 12. 1 the pursuit 
was cut short by nightfall. Apparently another or a further reason was here stated, e. g. 
that Darius was beyond reach ; cf. Curtius, /. c, postquam et nox adpetebat et consequendi spes 
noti era/. At the end of 1. 19 the - broken letter might be e, ο, ρ, σ, and this may well have 
ended the line. 

iv. 1-17. ' On the next day when he was suffering from want of attention one of the . 
Guards brought him a piece of bread which he had taken from a herdsman. In his hunger 
he ate it readily, remarking " Every one likes to live ". There were killed of the Macedonians 
1,000 infantry and 200 cavalry, and of the barbarians not less than 50,000 infantry and 
3,000 cavalry, and about . . . of the mercenaries.' 

1-9. This somewhat insignificant anecdote has not been traced in other authorities. 

βαρέως is to be supplied before εχοντι. 

5• τρυφος : the straightness of base in the final letter suggests ν rather than s, but the 
masculine form is unknown. 

9 sqq. The numbers of the slain in this battle as reported by other authorities are : 
Diodor. xvii. 36. 6, Persians: infantry, 100,000; cavalry. 10,000. Macedonians : infantry, 
300; cavalry, 150. Arrian ii. 11. 11, Persians: as Diodor. Plutarch, Alex. 20, Persians : 
110,000. Curtius ii. 11. 27, Persians: as Diodor. Macedonians: infantry, 32(?); 
cavalry, 150. Justin xi. 9. 10, Persians : infantry, 61,000 ; cavalry, 10,000. Macedonians: 
infantry, 130; cavalry, 150. Compared with these estimates, our author largely reduces 
the Persian and increases the Macedonian loss, and he also stands alone, if the restoration 
in L 17 is right, in giving a separate figure for the mercenaries in the Persian service. Of 
these 30,000 took part in the battle (Callisthenes, ap. Polyb. xii. 18. 2, Arrian ii. 8. 9), and 
8,000 are said to have escaped with Amyntas (Arrian ii. 13. 2 ; 4,000 according to Diodor. 
xvii. 48. 2), 8,000 to have been subsequently got together by Agis (Diodor. xvii. 48. 1), and 
a few others to have been included in the 4,000 fugitives collected by Darius (Arrian 
ii. 13. 1). The number slain can hardly have exceeded a few thousand. At the end of 
1. 18 εξη\κοντα is not impossible, though not very satisfactory. 

v. The remains of this column are insufficient to afford a clear clue to its subject. In 
1. 19 εν ΐ[σσω seems not unlikely. 

Ft. 45. Cf. Arrian iii. 7. 1-6, where the crossing of the Euphrates is described in more 
detail. According to Curtius iv. 9. 12 the march from Phoenicia had occupied eleven days. 
On the verso of this fragment are words beginning with λ (1802. 2). 

3• Perhaps α[νω. 

Fr. 46. Since the verso of this fragment contains words beginning with κ (1802. ι) it 
came later in the roll than Fr. 45. 



1798. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS . 135 

Frs 47-54 = 1802. 4-1 1. The character of the writing on the verso suggests that 
Fr. 50 came from the neighbourhood of Fr. 48, and Fr. 53 from that of Fr. 49. 
Fr. 49. 5. ο of το has apparently been converted from e. 
Fr. 54. That this small piece belongs to 1798 is hardly certain. 

1799. Oratorical Fragment. 

9.9 χ 9 cm. Second century. 

This fragment, containing remains of two columns of an unidentified speech, 
is written in a small sloping hand which is on the border line between literary 
and cursive, some of the forms, e. g. the ligature of ei, being of a thoroughly cursive 
character ; the MS. may fall within the second century, ν at the end of a line 
is once written as a stroke above the preceding vowel. No stops or other signs 

occur. 

Of the first column only a few letters from the ends of the lines remain, but 
the second includes a continuous passage of %$ nearly complete lines in which 
apparently the policy of Demosthenes is vindicated. The declaration that 
disaster would have been avoided by a thorough acceptance of that policy points 
to a period subsequent to the battle of Chaeronea, but the occasion of the speech 
is not made clear. There seems to be a defect in the text in 11. 30-1, besides 



minor errors.

9~ι ο. κ[αθ (κα]στον is very uncertain, but seems to suit the construction. p[ might 
be e. g. v[eov. 

11. Not η τ ων nor, apparently, η κ[αι. 

2θ-ι. A blank space sufficient for four or five letters has been left at the end of 1. 20, 
and the sentence is apparently incomplete. If ουτ[ο]σι ov γαρ is right, the apodosis may be 
completed in some such way as suggested in the text ; but there is barely room for the 
second ο of οντ[ο]σι, which, however, is sometimes written very small in this hand. At the 
end of 1. 21 φι is not satisfactory, since more of the vertical stroke of φ would be expected 
to be visible, though the surface of the papyrus is damaged here ; moreover, λι can barely 
be got into the lacuna at the beginning of the following line (the division ΦϊΚ\ιππος would be 
contrary to rule). But acfivov in 11. 24 and 27 clearly point to a mention of the Macedonian 
king earlier in the context. With regard to the word after γαρ, the ink in the first letter has 
run somewhat and the reading is doubtful ; τρ[ is perhaps more suitable than υμ[ but neither 
is convincing. 

27. η at the end of the line has been corrected from ov, whether by the original or 
a subsequent hand is difficult to say. 



1800. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 137 

1800. Miscellaneous Biographies. 

Fr. 3 27-1 X 15-4 cm. Late second or early third 

century. 

The handwriting of the following fragments, from a roll containing various 
biographies, is a fine specimen of the common oval type, and may be referred to 
the latter part of the second century more probably perhaps than the beginning 
of the third. The columns as usual are inclined slightly to the right. One 
apparent instance of a high stop, probably a later insertion, occurs in Fr. 1. 40. 
Short lines are filled up by means of the angular sign commonly used for 
that purpose. Whether the few small corrections are by the original or 
a later hand is doubtful. A small coronis marks the conclusion of sections. 
The titles prefixed to the biographies are sometimes enclosed by the short slightly 
curved strokes often employed in the colophons of literary papyri. 

As at present reconstituted the papyrus consists of 30 fragments, of which 
a few are fairly substantial, but their relative position, except in a few instances, 
is uncertain. If, as is possible, the top of Fr. 3. i is concerned with Thucydides 
(cf. note ad loc), that fragment must have followed Fr. 2, and there is no doubt 
about the order of Frs. 4-7 ; but otherwise the arrangement adopted is often more 
or less arbitrary. The biographies which can be identified are of Sappho 
(Fr. 1. i, ii), Simonides (Fr. 1. ii), Aesop (Fr. a. i, ii), Thucydides (Fr. 1. ii, Fr. 3. i ?), 
Demosthenes (Fr. 3. i, ii), Aeschines (Fr. 3. ii), Thrasybulus (Frs. 4-7), Hyperides 
(Fr.' 8. ii), Leucocomas (Fr. 8. ii), and Abderus (Fr. 1 1). This is a strange medley, 
and no intelligible principle seems to have guided the compiler either in the choice 
of his characters or their grouping. They are mainly literary, but the soldier- 
politician Thrasybulus does not come under that category, and Leucocomas and 
Abderus are entirely mythical. The inclusion of the former, whose name will 
not be familiar to many, is singular ; Abderus was at least the eponymous hero 
of a considerable town. As for the disposition of the Lives, like sometimes 
consorts with like : two lyric poets, both beginning with the same letter, figure 
in Fr. 1, and in Fr. 3 Aeschines is appropriately placed next to Demosthenes. 
But a reason why Thucydides should have been sandwiched between Demosthenes 
and Aesop, or Leucocomas should rub shoulders with Hyperides, is not easy to 
imagine. Nor are the biographies themselves, so far as they go, of much 
moment. Concerning Sappho there is nothing new beyond a variant of her 
father's name, and the statement that Charaxus was her eldest brother. The 
aspersion on her character, mentioned also, among Greek authorities, by Suidas, 
reappears here at a much earlier date. Reference is made in this section to the 
Grammarian Chameleon, the only citation in 1800 of a definite authority ; 



138 



THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 



elsewhere the compiler contents himself with the vague 'some say' or the like. 
A mutilated passage referring to Simonides' reputed innovation in the alphabet 
apparently has the negative merit of differing from the statement in Suidas 
(cf. A. Kirchoff, Gesch. des Griech. Alphabets, p. i). Of the death of Aesop, who 
was a favourite subject for biography (fragments of three Lives of Aesop have 
already been found in papyri, of the 4th-jth centuries ; cf. Collart, Rev. dePhilol. 
xliii, pp. 38 sqq.), there is a circumstantial account, including some new but not 
very valuable details. The Lives of Thucydides and of Hyperides are too frag- 
mentary to be informative ; of Demosthenes little that is fresh could be expected, and 
the only novelty is a blunder, on a par with the statement that Aeschines was the 
eldest of his father's sons, which Aeschines himself refutes. An anecdote, found 
also in Plutarch, about the generosity of Demosthenes to his defeated rival is 
given with greater elaboration in the account of the latter. One would gladly 
have had more of the section concerning Thrasybulus, which included some 
details not otherwise known, although errors like those just noticed do not give 
a good impression of the accuracy of the writer, — regarding whose identity we 
are entirely in the dark.

11. 8-9, and the reference of this passage to Thucydides is therefore very questionable. The 
letter after α in 1. 8 seems to be μ or λ, pointing to Άμαξαντεΰσι, Άλαιεΰσι or \\λωπεκεΰσι : 
Αλιμουντι (Thucydides' deme) can certainly not be read. In 1. 6 αυτο]υ επι της Αττ[ικης 
suggests itself, and Αττ[ικης is not inconsistent with the scanty remains. In 1. 7 atoi or λιοι is 
more suitable than voi. 

10-39. ' Concerning Demosthenes. Demosthenes the orator was an Athenian by 
birth, the son of Demosthenes, and of the Paeaniean deme. When quite a child he was 
left by his father under the guardianship of Onetor and Aphobus ; and when he came of age 
he displayed his skill in speaking by bringing his guardians to trial on account of the money 
belonging to him which they had appropriated. Coming forward to the tribune (he 
acquitted himself) excellently . . . and when he had taken some of the poison he im- 
mediately breathed his last, having maintained to the end the claim to freedom. The 
Athenians, when they regained their liberty, honoured him by setting up a bronze statue of 
him in the Ceramicus, and carved on a tablet the following epigram. "Had your strength 
been equal to your will, Demosthenes, the arms of Macedon would never have ruled 
Greece ".' 

17. Ονητορι: this is an error. The guardians were Aphobus, Demophon, and 
Therippides (In Aphob. 4) ; Onetor was a brother-in-law of Aphobus and acted in collusion 
with him against Demosthenes (cf. the C. 0?iet.). 

22. ε\νοσφισ\αυτο '. cf. Plutarch, Dem. 4 τα μεν νοσφισαμένων, τα. δ' άμελησάντων. 

24• παρελθών suits the Space better than αναστας. 

25—6. Cf. Plutarch, X Oraf. Vit. 847 a άποθανείν δ' αΐτον Φιλόχορος μεν φησι φάρμακον 
πιόντα. Σάτυρος δ' ό συγγραφείς τον κάλαμον πεφαρμάχθαι . . . ου γενσάμενον άποθανείν, Ερατοσθένης

φαρμάκου γευσάμενον (sc. άποθανείν). 

32—3. Cf. Plutarch. Dem. 30 ό των \\θ. δήμος . . . εϊκόνα τε χαλκήν άνεστησε. According 
to Plutarch, A' Oral. Vit. 847 a, the Statue was πλησίον τοΰ περισχοινίσματος και τοΰ βωμοΰ των 

δώδεκα θεών : Snidas says εν αγορά, αυτόν rather than αυτού is expected. 

34-9• The epigram is quoted also by Plutarch, //. cc, and Suidas, who rightly give "σην 
ρώμην γνώμτ}. Plutarch, Dem. 30, and Suidas say that it was on the base of the statue. 

40—74. ' Concerning Aeschines. Aeschines the orator was an Athenian by birth, the 
son of Atrometus and Glaucothea, and the eldest of the family, his brothers being 
Philochares and Laophobus. At first he was a tragic actor in minor parts, but being 
a naturally clever speaker exchanged the stage for the tribune at Athens. He indicted 
Ctesiphon for unconstitutional action in wrongly crowning Demosthenes with a gold crown 
when the new tragedies were brought out, but failing to get a fifth part of the votes he left 
Athens as an exile. Demosthenes, however, bearing no malice for what had taken place 
and taking heed of the fickleness of fortune sent him a talent of silver for the expenses of

his journey ; but he refused it and wept. When he was asked why he wept he said 
" Because I am leaving a city where even enemies are found more sympathetic than friends ". 
He went to Rhodes and kept a school . . .' 

44-5. Aeschines, Fals. Leg. 149, says that Philochares was the eldest. 
46. Λαοφο[|3]ου : 1. Αφοβητον ; cf. Aeschin. /. c. 
56—7. καινοις Tpuycuidois : i. e. at the Dionysia. 

61-73. This story is not mentioned in the biographies of Aeschines, but is given by 
Plutarch, X Orat. Vit. 845 e, though apart from the amount the details are quite different. 

The passage is : — (peiryoiros δ' Αίσχίνον μΐτα την καταδ'ικην, Ίππω κατεδίωζεν αυτόν [SC. Δημοσθένης)' 
τοΰ δ' οίηθεντος αυτόν συλλαμβάνεσθαι και προσπΐσόντος και σν/καλυψαμένου, άναστησας αίτον παρεμυ-

76. 'Ροδίου : the story of the reading of the speech against Ctesiphon may well have 
followed here ; cf. e. g. Plutarch, I. c. 

Frs. 6 + 7. Whether these pieces are from the same column as Frs. 4 + 5 or 
a succeeding one is doubtful ; the dissimilarity 'of the versos rather favours the latter 
alternative. 

1. Possibly Uei]pa[i . ., but the doubtful ρ may be any long letter — υ, ψ, ψ. 

2. συ]ν : the doubtful ν may equally be t.

Πίΐραύως συγκαηλθονσι, ων evioi φανερώς ήσαν δοϋλοι. A comparison of that passage Suggests 

that δοϋλοι were mentioned in the lacuna preceding 1. 2 αυτωι ano Φυλής, and that αυτοις or 
πασιν should be restored in 1. 7 ; but 11. 11-15 are more difficult. 

10. There is not room in the lacuna for μετισχον : a slightly shorter supplement than 
that suggested would be preferable. 

11. νας is preceded by the base of a vertical stroke (η or t). 

12-14. The position of the small detached fragment containing the letters V (λη[ and 
]ηριο[ with vestiges of a third line is made practically certain by the similarity of the fibres of 
the papyrus. In 1. 12 the η is quite uncertain, and e.g. eXey[ei/] would be possible. In 
1. 14 the vestige of the first letter suits ι and the following have rounded tops like σσ, 

σι, ΟΓ (σ. 

Fr. 8. ii. 20-33. The references in this passage indicate that the subject is 
Hyperides, who took an active part in the Lamian war (1. 23 ; cf. Plutarch, X Orat. Vit. 
849 f, Phocion 23), was one of the orators whose surrender was demanded by Antipater 
after the battle of Crannon (1. 26), and according to some accounts was put to death in 

Macedonia (1. 29 ; cf. Plutarch, X Orat. Vit. 849 b "Ερμιππος Be φησιν αυτόν γλωττοτομηθηναι et's• 
Μακεδονίαν ϊλθόντα). 

2 2-3• For the loose reference to Lamia cf. e.g. Pausan. vii. 10. 4 «rel 8e τ6 iv Ααμία 

πταίσμα eyevero. 

26-7. That the surrender of as many as ten orators was demanded by Antipater is 
apparently novel ; that was the number, according to some authorities, asked for ten years 
before by Alexander (cf. Plutarch, Demosih. 23, Diod. xvii. 15), and possibly the two 
occasions are here confused. 

30-3. Cf. Fr. 3. 29-31. Perhaps κα[λλιστοις in 1. 32. 



i5o THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

34-8. ' Concerning Leucocomas. Leucocomas was a Cretan by birth, of the city of 
Cnosos. Being a comely youth (he was beloved by Promachus . . .).' 

34 sqq. The story of Leucocomas and Promachus is known only from Conon 16. 

The passage is : τα περ\ Προμάχου καϊ Αευκοκόμα των Τνωσσ'ιων . . . διέξεισιν' ως ήρα ΤΙρόμαχος 
νεανίου κάλου του Αευκοκnd the 
similar but longer notes in Suidas and Photius. 

65-6. At the end of the line e. g. τοις Ιβηρσι or Αρμενιοις would be suitable ; cf. Strabo xi, 
p. 501. The work on Ξένη φωνή is apparently not mentioned elsewhere, and with which, 
if any, of the known grammarians named Heraclides the author is to be identified is 
doubtful. 

66—7. Cf. Hesych. μινδαλόεσσας' αριθμός. κα\ τα περ\ ουράνια σννταξις. Βαβυλώνιοι. In 

consideration of this compiler's fondness for giving authority it is preferable to treat κατά 
Βαβυλώνα as part of a title rather than to read e. g. Χαλδακ>[ι? τοις ουσι ; cf. 11. 72-3, where των 
κατά Βαβ. is most easily explained in the same sense and as a citation of the same treatise. 
The writer's name must be as short as possible. 

69. Cf. Hesych. Μινύαι• oi Όρχομίνιοι, κα\ Maywfrcs, As in 1. 67, the name of the author 
cited should be quite short, since the line would really be sufficiently filled with no further 
addition, especially if, as is quite possible, ev τοις stood in the title. There were many 
writers of works on rivers, besides Callimachus; cf. Schneider, Callimachea, ii, p. 326. 

71. Cf. Hesych. μινωα' είδος αμπέλου. 

72. Either ο before πάρα is superfluous or something has dropped out. For the citation 
cf. n. on 11. 66-7. μισαι according to Sayce = Sumerian me-zu, ' to divine '. 

74. The lexica throw no light on this entry, which seems to have no connexion with 

Hesych. μυττιλανός• άπόπληκτος, the latter word being too long for απ[ ] ., as well as 

otherwise incongruous. Ηγησανδρος is presumably Hegesandrus of Delphi, the author of 
a collection of anecdotes called Υπομνήματα, in several books, cited by Hesych. s. v. άπόφαρσις 
and Suidas s. v. αλκυονίδες as well as by Athenaeus. 

Fr. 4. The blank spaces in 11. 7 and 9 indicate that the preceding words were 
γλώσσαι, and 11. 5-6 are no doubt complete at the beginning. The fragment may be from 
the top of a column. 

Fr. 6. The writing in this fragment containing the ends of lines from the top of 
a column, is considerably smaller than in Frs. 2 and 3 ; that of Fr. 9 is similar and so is 
that of Fr. 1 so far as it goes. 

Ι. βασιλέως : ΟΓ βασιν ως ? βασιλικοί ΟΓ -κου is less Suitable. 
6. πάρα Χα\λ\δαιοις : cf. Fr. 3. 63, 72. 

Frs. 7-8. These two fragments are more cursively written than the rest. 

Fr. 9. Cf. n. on Fr. 6. In 1. 1 a narrow letter may be lost between the supposed 
β and p. 

Fr. 11. Either the beginning of a line or of the explanation of a word. 



1803. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 163 

1803. Glossary. 

16 χ 29-7 cm. Sixth century. 

This sheet from a papyrus book was probably the uppermost of a quire, 
since the space between the two pages of the recto, down which the binding string 
passed, has an ornamental band of light purple colour, and the string itself, some 
of which still adheres to the sheet, showing the knot, is partially coated with the 
same colour. The style of the rather heavy sloping uncials points to a date in 
the sixth century perhaps rather than the fifth ; the ink is of the brown shade 
characteristic of the Byzantine period. As usual, the words of the glossary, which 
all begin with σ, are made to protrude slightly into the margin ; and the 
conclusion of the notes is marked by paragraphi, accompanied here and there by 
stops in the high or medial position. Quotations are sometimes indicated by the 
angular signs commonly employed for that purpose, but they are often omitted. 
Marks of elision are used, and there is one instance of a rough breathing (1. 42) ; 
all these additions are due to the original scribe, who was apparently a person of 
small intelligence, though he need not of course be the originator of all the 
slips that occur. 

1803 is of a less interesting character than 1801—2 and the purpose suggested 
is rather scholastic than scientific ; citations, however, are commendably frequent 
and from these the papyrus largely derives its value. They are taken either 
from prose (Demosthenes, Thucydides, Xenophon) or Comedy, both Old and 
New, and additions are thus made to the extant fragments of Eupolis Χρυσοΰν 
Vivos, Aristophanes Trjpas, Menander Σνναριστώσαι, Έγχ^ιρίδιον, Φιλάδελφοι, and 
Φανίον ; the poet's name is omitted in the case of the last three of these, but 
there can be little doubt that Menander is meant. The alphabetical arrangement, 
apart from the initial letter, is very negligent.

I. Cf. Moeris, ρ. 34 2 οτιφρον Άττικώς' στριφρον "Έλλψίς. ο after στιφρον, if 

correct, = δ. 

2-4- The line from the rfjpas cannotbe correct as quoted, but is easily emended, e. g. 



1803. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 165 

και μη(ν) υπόστιφρον συ . . . or υπόστιφρον σε . . . εχειν. In place of υπόστιφρον {άπαξ. εϊρημ.Υ 

which is obviously to be read, the copyist lapsed into the non-Attic υποστριφνον, but after 
noticing the error unintelligently made only a partial correction; there is no form 

στιρφνός. 

5-7. 1. στιφρας. If the a at the beginning of 1. 6 has been correctly cancelled by the 
copyist, something has dropped out either before or after στιφρας. The final s of εσομενας 
was converted from t. 

8. Instances of the shortening of the second a in Σάραπις are found only in Latin 
(e. g. Prudent. Adv. Symm. ii. 531). The Έγχειρίδων is no doubt that of Menander, who 
was the last author to be mentioned. 

II— 15. Cf. e.g. Heraclid. ap. Eustath. 1722. 55 ot μεν παλαιοί i» δυσϊ γάμμα εχρώντο, 
γίγνομαι λέγοντες. 

12. 1. γ for ΐ: the converse error occurs in 1. 16. 

13. t of μάλιστα is written through λ, i. e. μάλλον was first written. 

16—18. 1. την. Cf. PhotlUS σημεων' την σφραγίδα' κα\ σημαίνεσθαι' το σφραγίζεσβαι, 
Hesych. σημΰον' τέρας, η σφραγίς, and σημήνασθαι' σφραγίσασθαι, Harpocrat. σημεία' ούτω λεγουσι 
τάς σφραγίδας. Δημοσθένης εν τω προς Φαίνιππον. In 1. 1 8 ως is followed by what seems tO be 

the top of a vertical stroke, so that neither Α[ριστοφανης (cf. Eq. 952) nor Α[ημοσθενης i s 
probable. 

19. πολλακεις: et has been converted from ισ. 

22. Φιλαδελφοις: of Menander presumably. 

23-6. Two iambic verses apparently, but the first ι of χωρίδιον should be short and τό 
is likely to have preceded. 

27—9. Cf. Suidas συμφορά' των μέσων εστί . . . δηλοΐ δε η συμφορά και τό καλόν καϊ το κακόν, 
διό λέγει επ\ σνμφορα'ισιν άγαθα'ις (AristOph. Eq. 655 J cf. 11. 3I-2), Eustath. 647. 28, Hesych. 
συμφορά' συντυχία. σΰμπτωτα. ατυχία. In 1. 29 1• αγαθην. 

31-4 = Eq. 655-6. The papyrus supports the usual reading εϊσηγγελμεναις. R omits 

εισ, whence Cobet proposed αγαθάϊσι τοις ήγγελμ. 

35• Perhaps και \ χωρίς αυτού, as in 11. 14-15. δια του I presumably refers to the spelling 
είθίζειν, which is used meiri graiia, e.g. in Pythag. Carm. aur. 35, but there seems to be 
no instance of συνειθ. apart from augmented forms. 

36-7. This is no doubt part of a note on σχολή in the sense of βραδέως or ουδαμώς. 

Cf. Suidas σχολή y αν άντ\ του οϋδ' όλως, βραδέως, ουδαμώς. 1. Τε\ωργωι, i. e. most probably the 

play of Menander; cf. 11. 8, 22, nn. 

38 Sqq. Cf. Harpocrat., and Suid. σίτος' πάς δ σιτικός καρπός, ουχ ό πυρός μόνον' και αυτά 

τά σιτία, Hesych. σίτος- τροφή. The references in 11. 39 an d 45~7 are to Xen. Anab. ii. 1.6 
and Dem. In Dionysod. 7. In 1. 41 the papyrus correctly agrees with the ' deteriores ' 
against CBAE in omitting κα\ πότον after σιτον. In 1. 52 the reference may be to 
Anab. v. 4. 29 and σ[ιτω can be read ; but Αι{α]/3ασι is not very satisfactory, though τη, which 
seems to be right, points to that work or the Cyrop., which is irreconcilable with the remains, 
τη αυτή being also unsuitable. 

53—5 = Thucyd. VU. 60 δίά τήν των επιτηδείων σπάνιν ως τάχιστα κτλ., cited ΠΟ doubt in 

illustration of the word σπάνις. Cf. Photius and Suidas σπάνις• ένδεια. Either σπάνιν 
preceded των ίπιτ. in the papyrus, or it was omitted. 

56—9. Cf. Hesych. σάβυττος' είδος ξυρήσεως εϊς καλλωπισμόν' πότερον δε τοΰ πώγωνος η της 
κεφαλής, άδηλον' τίνες δε τό γυναικεϊον. PhotlUS gives the latter meaning only to σάβυττος and 

spells the equivalent of ξυρήσεως είδος, σαβύττης, but Hesych. is confirmed by the papyrus. 
11. 58-9 look like a pair of trochaic acatalectic dimeters (cf. e.g. Aristoph. Av. 1478-80), 
but if so, there is apparently some corruption in 1. 58, where, though it would be easy 
to write ως (#)/*, the preceding word remains a difficulty. The doubtful κ after και can. be 



i66 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

χ or ζ ; ησ is probable, but o>s very uncertain. There is a reference to a icovpeCs in an already 
extant fragment of the Xp. Γίν. (Kock 278). 

61. σιώπησα: e has been converted from t. 

62-4. De Cor. 112. 1. σιωπησομαι, as originally written. 

65. Φανιωι : the papyrus confirms the spelling of this title, as to which there has been 
some doubt. 

66. ev τω is very uncertain, but consistent with the meagre vestiges. 



1804. Ae£eis 'Ρητορικαί. 
Fr. 4 i6-6xi3-4cm. Third century. 

Fragments of a roll containing an alphabetical series of oratorical terms with 
notes thereon, the pieces preserved dealing with words which begin with the 
letters Π, Ρ, Σ, They are written in well-formed sloping uncials of medium size, 
in style recalling P. Rylands 57 (Vol. i, Plate 10), though perhaps of a somewhat 
later date. An angular sign, the angle pointing to the left instead of, as usual, 
to the right, is used to fill up short lines. As in 1801-2, the terms to be 
explained are given prominence by a slight protrusion into the margin and by the 
short blank spaces which follow them. A second hand, using ink of a different 
shade, has introduced one or two alterations. 

Many of the words included in this glossary occur also in Harpocration, but 
its relations to that standard authority are less close than to the Ae£eis 'Ρητορι,καί 
Seguerianae edited by Bekker in Anecd. i, pp. 197-318. This affinity is evident 
not only in the substance of the glosses but also in their order, e. g. the four 
terms in Frs. 1 + a. i ΤΙυθαιός (?), προστρόπαως, ■πζρίστατοι and πορέιον follow the 
same sequence in Anecd. pp. 295-6, though separated there by a few 
additionalf Frs. 1 + 2. i. 

Fr. 6. 4. There is an appearance of a colon just in front of ε of απηει, but this may be 
due to a correction, e. g. perhaps the scribe began to write ατιηλ(θε). 

5• At the end of this line the second hand has made an alteration, and it is not clear 
what was originally written or what was intended to stand. 

Fr. 7. That this fragment comes from the ends of lines is indicated both by 1. 6, where 
there is a narrow margin after the remains of the final letter, and in 1. 8 by the lengthening 
of the cross-bar of the supposed ε, which might also be read as the dash used for filling 
a short line. 

6. Probably poi or ρος (προς ?). 



172 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 



III. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS. 



1805. Sophocles, Trachiniae. 

Fr. 15 10x9-6 cm. Late second century. 

These scattered fragments from a roll of the Trachiniae are in a medium- 
sized hand of the common sloping type, of which it is a fair specimen, though 
less regular than e. g. 1800. Some annotations in cursive point to a date in the 
latter part of the second century rather than the beginning of the third. Stops 
in all three positions occur, and accents, breathings, and marks of elision and 
quantity have been introduced not infrequently, some at any rate of these being 
no doubt subsequent additions, due probably to the corrector whose hand is to 
be distinguished here and there. 

Textually these fragments are, in the main, conservative. A few new 
readings occur, including one or two which are definite improvements, e. g. 
1. 1 136, where a generally accepted correction is confirmed. For one of the 
unknown variants the authority of, probably, Aristophanes of Byzantium is 
cited. On the other hand, the papyrus apparently agrees with the MSS. in 
a passage requiring alteration on metrical grounds, and occasionally offers 
evidence which is inferior to theirs. In supplementing lacunae, Jebb's text has 
been followed, of course with no implication that the papyrus necessarily agreed 
with it. 

Possibly further additions may eventually be made to the remains of 
this MS., the script of which is with difficulty distinguished from that of numerous 
other fragments which accompanied them.

12. Unfortunately it is not clear whether the papyrus agreed with the MSS. in having 
τνπω(ι) βονκρανος, or supported Strabo's nurse βαύπρωρος, which is generally preferred. On 
the whole τυ]π[ω seems a more satisfactory reading than κυΓτά, 

17. Bergk wished to reject this line. 

275. Apparently ολυμπίων was originally written, but a dot between t and ω and 
a vestige of ink above the line point to the insertion of -os as an alternative. The genitive 
would spoil the line. 

278. ημννατο \ SO L &C. ; ημΰιχτο Β. 

28ι. κ of e]< is directly above the first ι of «σι in 1. 282, so that with νπΐρχλιοντΐς 
(L first hand and lemma of Schol.) the number of letters in the respective lacunae coincides. 
But νπΐρχλώωντίϊ (L corr. ι A &c.) cannot be excluded. 

292. Since the initial lacuna is of the same length as in the three preceding lines, 
it is likely enough that the papyrus agreed with LA in reading των 8e. 

Frs. 6-10. The cursive note at the top of this column refers to 1. 372, and evidently 
explains the apparent inconsistency of αγορά here with h βονθ(ρύ λειμώνι in 1. 188, the 
inconsistency vanishing if αγορά is taken in the sense of assembly or gathering ; cf. Schol. 
αγορά' άθροίσματι. The reading suggested in the latter part of the third line is, however, 
highly doubtful, the μ being rather cramped and the s very insecure, λωι> or των is 
possible. 

360. (χο\ί : so edd. with Α; '4χη (from e'x«) L. 

362-4. These verses have been much suspected, some critics bracketing 11. 362-3, 

Others 1. 362 την ταύτη! 1. 364 πάτερα, 

364. The superfluous ν (due to the preceding infin. no doubt) has been crossed through, 
perhaps by a later hand. 

370. α : ο MSS., which is required by the preceding τό πάν. 

372. Cf. η. on Frs. 6-10 above. 

379. Whether the papyrus had κάρτα or και τα cannot be determined. 

534. So far as considerations of space are concerned, there is nothing to choose between 

φραζονσα (L) and φρασονσα (A). 

576. μ)ητιν : η suits the remains, which are inconsistent with ov. 

579. ΐγκ(]κληιμ([νον : a better spelling than that of L (-κλ«μ-) or Α (-κλ«σμ-), and already 
restored by Dindorf. The ι was probably added by a corrector, but the colour of the ink 
is indistinguishable. 

602. Opposite this line on the edge of the papyrus, at a distance of 6 cm., are the tips 
of two horizontal strokes, one 3 cm. above the other. They may either come from 
a marginal note referring to the previous column, or perhaps be the remains of a 
stichometrical figure, i. e. ζ, standing for 600 ; such figures are not always quite accurately 
placed. 

744. πάρων, which was inadvertently written originally, has been amended to μαθών by 
the second hand, which also inserted in the margin the (unknown) v. 1. άνθρωπου, attributing 
it to Ap( ), who is more probably Aristophanes than Aristarchus ; cf. 1174. vi. 5, where 
Ap( ) seems to be used side by side with Aptv( ) as an abbreviation of Αριστοφάνης. 
Subsequently the pen was drawn through this marginal note and also, rather unaccountably, 

Ν 2 



ιδο THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

through the final word of the line. Possibly ανθρώπων was similarly cancelled and άνθρωπου 
μαθών rewritten above. 

764. Why α was written again above the line is not evident, the original letter being 
sufficiently well formed. 

781. [<]ομη : κόμης MSS., a reading retained by Jebb but often suspected, κόρσης, 
κόγχης, κοπή, 0oXfj have been conjectured in its place, κόμη is unacceptable, but the papyrus 
reading might be used as an argument in favour of a dative like Hense's κοπή. 

783. αν(νφημησ€ν : this reading had been restored by Brunck from Hesych. s. v. 

άνενφημήσίΐ and IS also in Schol. Eurip. Tro. 573. avev φωνής € ν L, άν€νφώνησ€ν ΟΓ άνΐφωνησΐν 

other MSS. 

788. Jebb following Porson accepts τ after Αοκρών from Diog. Laert. x. 137, where 
11. 787-8 are quoted with several other variations from the MSS. reading, which the papyrus 
supports. 

790. ρίπτων: cf. 1. 780; ρίπτων MSS. 

793. The alternative reading otav implies the corresponding v. 1. λνμαντιν later in the 
verse ; olov . . . λυμαντψ only MSS. 

796. δακρυροονντα : analogous spellings are not infrequent in the papyri. 

852-4. Unfortunately the papyrus brings no light here. In 1. 854 the MSS. reading 
ονπω άγάκλατον suits the space. What stood in the lacuna at the beginning of 1. 853 is more 
doubtful, κίχνται νόσος, if that was read, must have been divided between 11. 852—3, and 
κεχυται would fill the space better than νόσος, but there is no evidence for that order. 

1071. ωστ€•. L mistakenly has ωστις. 

1 134. το is preceded by something that looks like σ surmounted by a rather thick dot; 
perhaps et? was inadvertently written and the superfluous ς subsequently cancelled; or the 
dot might be explained as a high stop after θνμο]ς, a being omitted. 

1 1 35. A spot of ink on the edge of a hole above η may represent a rough breathing or 
circumflex accent, but since there are other ink-marks above vo, they are all best regarded 
as accidental. 

1 136. μωμ[ςνη confirms the correction of Heath, which according to Subkoff was the 
reading of L 2 ; μνωμίνη LA &c. 

1 138. The Stop after π]ροσβαλειν shows that σί.θζν was constructed with άπήμπλακε 

instead of with στίργημα. 

1 141. Some other letter than e was originally written before ξ; that the alteration was 
made by the first hand is possible, but uncertain. 

1254. nvpa\y : the accent is a probable indication that μΐθης was regarded as one word, 
as in L, since otherwise an acute on the a would be the normal accent. It is however 
possible that both accents were inserted, that on the a being lost. 

Fr. 24. It is by no means certain that this small fragment of a title belongs to 1805. 

1806. Theocritus, Idyll xxii. 

Height 29 cm. Late first centurv. Plate IV 

(Col. i'v). 

Remains of four consecutive columns, of which the first two are represented 
by tiny scraps, with a small unplaced fragment. This was a handsome MS., the 
tall columns being carefully written in rather large uncials, round and upright, of 
an ornamental type exemplified in several Homeric papyri ; cf. also e. g. 844 and 



1806. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 181 

1375. The cross-bar of ε and Θ is placed rather high, as in P. Brit. Mus. 271 
(cf. Kenyon, Palaeography, Plate 15). On the whole a date rather before than 
after the close of the first century seems appropriate. One stop occurs in the 
middle position (1. 68), and there is also a doubtful rough breathing in the same 
line, and a circumflex accent in the unidentified fragment. A few corrections are 
from a second hand. An unusual feature in this roll is that the upper and 
lower margins are strongly tinged on the recto with yellow, probably due to 
cedar oil, which was used as a preservative against insects and gave a yellow 
tint (Vitruv. ii. 9. 13, Ovid, Trist. iii. 1. 13). 

The Hymn to the Dioscuri is not well represented in the MSS. of Theo- 
critus, and fresh evidence of so early a date is welcome. In 1. 40 an obvious 
correction of Stephanus is confirmed. But the papyrus, in spite of its early date, 
is less enlightening than 1618 ; it solves no crux, and its distinguishing feature 
is the presence of several unknown variants of rather neutral character, 1. 4.5 
τεθρανμενος for τεθλασμένος, 1. 6o άπελθοις for Ικάνοις, 1. jy κόγγον for κόχλον ; 
cf. 694. 34, where σφιν ττα[ρεκειτο replaces yap σφιν εκείτο. The text shows 
a mixture of dialects similar to that found in the MSS., e. g. άπατοι? (so 
originally ; άπελθοις the corrector) and πύκτας side by side with Μαγνήσσης 
από my os. 

In the transcript below, the supplements follow the edition of Wilamowitz 
in the absence of any indication that the papyrus read otherwise ; the collation 
appended is derived from the same source, supplemented by the edition of 
Ahrens.

8. The fact that this small fragment is from the bottom of a column makes its 
identification with 1. 8 probable; Col. ii will then have been one line longer than 
Col. iii. 

39. That the papyrus had Ruhnken's λάλλαι in place of the αλλαι of the MSS. is of 
course quite uncertain, but there would apparently be plenty cf room for it. 

40. πεφνκεσαν : SO Stephanus ; πεφυκασιν MTr. 

41. πλάτανοι re is required, but cannot be read. The supposed ι (which is not o) is 
followed by another vertical stroke, after which there is a blank space of about two letters' 
width. It looks as if the scribe had begun to write και immediately after πλάτανοι and then 
changed his mind and left a space for the missing syllable. The loss of re may have been 
caused by a misunderstanding of λεΰααι,- which was taken for λευκοί.

63. fi σον . . . τε'ρσει MSS. ; the occurrence of τερσει with v. 1. -σοι at the end of the line 
points to ei σου or σεν preceding. ευτε σε . . . τίρσηι Wilamowitz.

64. ( of πιθοιμ( ν was converted from a vertical stroke. 

66. θενων . . . ορθοί. : βίων . . . ορθός Μ, θίνων . . . ορθά Τΐ". ορθοί for ορθοί IS ΠΟ 

improvement, but is consistent with θ*νων, which also suits the space better than a shorter 
reading, the lacuna being of the same length as in the next four lines, θίνω σκίλος ; . . . 
ορθά WM. 

68. There is something above the line, though whether it was intended for a rough 
breathing is rather doubtful. 

69. It is unfortunate that this line is not better preserved, though ο πνκτας, which 
Wilamowitz obelizes, is at any rate something, ου σύ pe apos Tr., ου yvvvis (71W M) 
i&v MD, ου yvvvis εκών Meineke, ου yvvvis apos Haupt. The spelling πνκτας is that of D 
(a corr.). 

70. A short oblique dash in front of this verse has no evident significance. Cf. 
694. 21. 

77• κονχον : κόχλον MSS. 

82. σνναγον is the spelling of the MSS., as originally written here. Whether the 
termination is rightly read as -yo\y is not clear ; the penultimate letter looks more like τ 
than y, but the writer is apt to make the horizontal stroke project to the left, and this may 
be an extreme instance ; moreover there is a suggestion of e in the remains of the supposed 
ο. ξννατ([ would however be meaningless. 

83. Consistency with the ordinary reading seems only to be obtained by the 
supposition of an original lipography of s, which may of course have been supplied 
subsequently. 

Unidentified fragment. This small piece is apparently in the same hand as the other 
fragments, though there is no instance in them of an accent (1. 2). 



1807. ARATUS, Δωσημίΐα. 

1 7*3 χ 18. 6 cm. Second century. 

This fragment contains the lower part of a column, preceded by a broad 
margin in which some cursive notes, both textual and explanatory, referring to 
the preceding column are entered. The notes on 11. 895 and 901 are in smaller 
and more lightly formed lettering than the v. 1. on 1. 897, but whether they really 
proceeded from a different writer the evidence is hardly sufficient to determine. 
The text of the Aratus is well written in a rather large hand, round and upright, 
somewhat similar to that of B. Berl. 6845 (Schubart, Pap. Gr., Plate 19, c), though 
less heavy ; it may be assigned with probability, like the Berlin papyrus, to the 
first half of the second century. Paragraphi were employed, and there are two 
instances of a high stop, inserted well above the line. The latter, and the 
occasional accents, are unlikely to be original and are due perhaps to the 
corrector, who may also be the author of the marginalia. 

So far as it goes the papyrus shows a good text, which is in substantial 
agreement with the Marcianus(M),the oldest and best of the manuscripts. Readings 
found in later MSS. have, however, twice been subsequently incorporated, in one

place as a marginal variant (1. 897), in another as a correction (1. 930). A de- 
parture from accepted tradition in 1. 927 is supported by Joh. Philoponus and 
also by another early Aratus papyrus at Berlin (Berl. Klassikertexte, v. I. iii. 1) 
in which a few letters from the last 14 lines of Col. ii are preserved. The 
papyrus reading is condemned very positively by the Berlin editors, but the 
coincidence of ancient testimony is worth notice ; it is of course possible that the 
alternative lection was given in 1807 as a v. 1. 

For the accompanying collation the edition of E. Maass has been utilized.

Width of column 4*5-5 cm. Late second century. 

Plate IV (Cols, i-iii). 

Remains of the upper parts of five narrow columns which are successive but 
for the loss of one column between the third and fourth ; the original length of 
the columns was approximately double the amount preserved. The text is well 
written in good-sized uncials of the sloping oval type, in which the smallness of 
e, θ, ο, σ is in marked contrast to the breadth of the square letters η, μ, ν, π; their 



1808. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 187 

date is more probably second century than third. Single points in the high and 
middle position are used as stops, as well as a colon, which serves both for 
punctuation (iv. 5) and to mark a change of speaker, in combination with 
paragraphi (v. 13) ; a short blank space is sometimes employed instead for 
the same purposes (iii. io, v. 14). One instance occurs of a rough breathing, due 
very likely to the corrector whose hand is in evidence here and there and who 
may also have been the author of at any rate most of the marginalia, which are 
the interesting feature of this papyrus. Cols, i-ii covered the famous passage 
546 b-c describing the Platonic Number, and the margins contain a quantity of 
explanatory annotations, for the most part well preserved, but rendered 
difficult by the frequent use of tachygraphic symbols, the interpretation of which 
is not always clear. The writer is strangely inconsistent and seems sometimes to 
have dropped into short-hand almost unawares, e. g. in Col. i, marg. 8 it is not 
easy to see what was gained by a tachygraphic η in Ο,στησιν. In the existing 
scarcity of material for the study of early Greek tachygraphy this well-dated 
specimen, exiguous though it is, has a value. The two columns have been 
printed, so far as exigencies of type permit, as they stand, and a reconstruction 
is attempted in the commentary ; the exact forms of the symbols can be better 
followed in the accompanying facsimile (Plate IV). With regard to the matter 
of the notes, to the elucidation of which Prof. A. E. Taylor has kindly contributed, 
there is a noteworthy coincidence with Dercylides, the earliest writer whose view 
about the numbers reached is given by Proclus in his commentary on the 
Republic; see Col. ii, marg. 12-13, n. The annotator's interpretation of the 
mathematics would therefore appear to be based, directly or indirectly, upon 
Dercylides, and thus gains considerably in interest ; cf. Col. i, marg. 9-10, n., 
where a further small point of contact with ol irepl Αζρκνλβην is observed. 

In its testimony for the text of Plato the papyrus is undistinguished ; some 
inaccuracies have been corrected by the second hand, which has introduced 
a novel variant in Col. ii. 8.

Col. i, marg. ι. Perhaps κοσμωι, the word in any case being explanatory of θαωι 
γεννητωι. The two following lines, at the beginnings of which, to judge from the notes 
below, two or three letters may be lost, are obscure, //, if right, should = με» or -μ€ν, and 
the next word may be a form of αυτός, perhaps αυτόν : tachygraphic τ becomes a vertical 
stroke, and \ = ov, and the combination of these might produce something like the symbol 
in the text, though different from that e. g. in Wessely, Ein System der altgr. Tachygraphie, 
Plate II. 9. 5. Further on, ν is surmounted by a small semicircle (perhaps incomplete), 
which may represent ο or ω. 

4. The collocation of figures after (τη is peculiar. If μ = μυριάς, since the ώ is written 
above and connected with ά by enclosing dots, it would seem natural to suppose that the 
number meant is 1,800 χ ιο,οοο. On the other hand « ought to mean 1, not 1,000, and 
seeing that, as Prof. Taylor observes, the value 10,800 is assigned by some writers to the 
' great year' of Heraclitus (cf. Censorinus 18. n), there is a probability that μ ω should have 
been written. 

5-8. These four lines, which appear to be in a different hand from that of the rest of 
the marginalia, are an explanation of τελαος αριθμός, but are not easy to interpret. Perhaps 

re'X(et)(oy) οτ(ι) e\v) [airjo) κα(τα) τρ(οπήν} 6 θ((ο)ς ωρι\Κ€ν) on σ(ΰν\π(αντας} πλανήτης \α77θκ(αθ\ί- 

στησι,ν may approximate to the sense, though there are several points here which are 
unsatisfactory. At the end of 1. 5 a short vertical stroke, which might be read as 1, remains 
unaccounted for. Can ((ν)ι[αυτ]ω be meant ? But the order is not in favour of this. In 
1. 7 σ is a recognized abbreviation of σΰν, and σ(ΰν)π(αντας) would be unobjectionable but 
for the occurrence in 1. 14 of a similar curved symbol which remains unexplained. In 1. 8 
άποκαθίστησιν is the compound expected, but this will presuppose considerable irregularity 
at the beginnings of the lines. Taylor suggests that οτ e' may stand for 6 τέλειος) 
{(νιαυτός), followed by ί(ν) ω : such drastic abbreviation, however, seems hardly possible, 
especially as the word eWurds does not actually occur in the text. 

9-10. δνναμίν{ας) {τας) ΰποτεινοΰσας ? : a similar sign represents ας in Wessely, op.cz/. 
Plates I. 2. ii. 2, III. 10. 1. That the same symbol should stand for both -as• and τάς is 
not a serious objection, since there are analogies for this in tachygraphy, and the alternative 
8υνάμΐν(αι) (αί) not only necessitates the alteration of υποτ^ινουσας but also involves a similar 
incongruity in 11. 11-12, where the same sign occurs in conjunction with accusatives. Why, 
however, that case was used in these two places remains obscure. For the substance of the

note cf. Alex. Aphrod. In Arisi. Met. A 8. 990 a 23 of the Pythagorean triangle «rei roivw

συμφωνία \oyov (χουσών (ί. e. 4 : 3)> τ ^ ς & υποτεινοΰσης η (sic : exspectas διπλάσιοι/, Kroll J but 

what is expected is surely 'ίσον) δυναμένης άμφυϊν. 

ιι— 12. {τας) ά'λλ(αϊ) πλευρ(άί), referring to δυναστίνόμ^ναι ; cf. the passage from Alex. 
Aphrod. quoted in the preceding note. In the next line the αλλαι πλ(υραί are more closely 
defined as the ορθή and the βάσις, the perpendicular and the base of the triangle. For the 
symbol interpreted as as or τάς cf. n. on 11. 9-10 above. The sign \ ordinarily means «rat, 
and also represents ov, but these would be out of place here, where και is desirable. Cf. ii, 
marg. 4. 

13—16. δ δρο(ι) y αποστάσεις 'ίχονσι ... δ ic(ei)ovfs τύ δρι[ο(ι/)] έπιφέρ(ουσι ?). For the 

high dot at the end of the first word of the note cf. Col. ii, marg. 8, where a similar mark 
occurs above λει'π(ει). Possibly there was a corresponding mark in the text. The latter 
part of the note is obscure. In 1. 14 the symbol before ov is like that in 1. 7 above, which 
may represent π. ov seems to be a termination rather than the relative, which would lack 
an antecedent, and also a governing verb, if το δρι[ο(ν)] is the object of έπιφέρ(ουσι). With 
regard to this verb, the plural termination is demanded by κίονα, and the symbol at the 
end has a smaller and more rounded top than that standing for «. The introduction of 
κίονας, as a synonym apparently of Spot, is hardly helpful.

7. The v. 1. «αστού superscribed by a second hand is unrecorded. 
9. δνΐΐν : so AD ; δνοϊν with others Burnet. 

1 1, ο after ου[τ]ο? has been cancelled by a dot placed above ; ούτος αριθμός MSS. 
13. ν, which was originally written in place of t, was presumably cancelled, but only 
the top is preserved ; the correction may be by the original hand or the corrector. 

Col. ii, marg. 1-5. This mutilated note refers to 11. 4-8 of the text, the value of 
αριθμών άπ6 διαμέτρων ρψών πΐμπάδος being explained by the aid of diagrams. The ' rational 
diameter of 5 ' means the rational number nearest to the diameter of a square, the side 
of which is 5. This diameter is V 50 {Euclid \. 47), to which the nearest rational number 
is 7. The number 48 in 11. 1 and 9 marg. is of course arrived at by subtracting 1 

(δ(ομένων ενός 11. 6—7, λείπ(ει) μονάδι marg. 8) from the Square of 7 (αριθμών από διαμέτρων 

11. 3-4). In marg. 2 perhaps προμήκ]η δε' should be restored, and τ]ώ before λ(εί)π•εσ0(αί) : 
for μο[νάδι cf. marg. 8. In marg. 4 something like ώς iv τω Μίνωνι seems required, and the 
symbol before Μίνωνι, which recurs in marg. 12-13, no doubt represents τω ; cf. e. g. Wessely, 
op. cit. Plate II. 7. 2, where the sign for τω is analogous, though the straight stroke is 
diagonal instead of being horizontal. Whether the preceding curved sign, which resembles 
a sigma (cf. ii, marg. 10), could represent h is doubtful; at any rate the previous group is 
not in the least like the tachygraphic symbol for ώς. The passage of the Meno referred to 

is 85 b απο της διαμέτρου . . . yiyvovr αν το διπ\άσιον χωρίον. In 1. 5 1• άπο δ(ια)μέτ(ρου\ yi(ytTai). 

Of the following diagram only a small part is preserved, and its nature is not clear ; there 
seems to have been more than a square with a diagonal. 

6-7. It would be natural to expand this note βητ(6ς) άριθμ(ος) 6 πλευραν εχω(Α but 
as this is an obviously incorrect definition of a finite number, Taylor suggests that 
ρητ(ών)• άριθμ(ός) κτλ. is meant. ' the square of a " rational diameter " is a square number ', 
which is less tautologous in Greek than in English, but might have been more clearly 

expressed as αριθμός άπο ρητών 6 πλ(υραν ΐχων. Cf. marg. ΙΟ— II. 

8-9- λει'π(εί) μονάδι, εί πλευρ(ά) μη. These words seem intelligible only if π-λευρ(ά) here 



1808. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 191 

is taken as referring to the side of the oblong ; ' it is less by a unit, if the side = 48 ( χ ioo) '. 
This is certainly not very satisfactory, and there is something to be said for Taylor's 
proposal to insert e before μη: * it is less by a unit ; i. e. if the side is 5, the number will be 
(49— 1 =) 48 '. But emendation of this kind is better avoided, if possible. Cf. marg. 1-2, 
where there was a somewhat similar note. 

10-11. άρρητ(ων ?) (Se ?)• ν, ov [οϋκ) eiVi πλ(«υραί). It seems simplest on the whole to 
regard the first two words of this note as a lemma from the Platonic text; cf. βητ(ων?) in 
marg. 6. The curved symbol is rather like that in marg. 4, but some part may be lost in 
a hole in the papyrus, and at any rate the head differs in having a downward bend. With 
regard to {ουκ), the usual tachygraphic equivalent of ov is an upward curve, but this sometimes 
degenerates into ajstraight stroke, as e. g L in Wessely, op. cit. Plate III. 10. 1. 

I2—I3. ( r< ?) K C yi{yovTai) ημίρ^αι) 'Ζφ, άκ(6λοΰθωςϊ) (τω) yvv^aiKeico). In this note the 

number 27 appears to have been connected with the female μηνιαϊον. For the symbol for 
τω cf. marg. 4 above and n. ad loc. ; if that is right, the group next to the figures in 1. 13 
must govern the dative, and hence άκ(ολονθως) is suggested. In the number 'ζφ the first 
figure might be taken for Ά, but is no doubt 'z, since, as Taylor points out, 7,500 is 
given as the value of one of the άρμονίαι by Dercylides ap. Proclus, hi Remp. ii. 25 (Kroll)

άνόμοιον μ(τ eKe'ivov τον 'Ζφ. Proclus obtains the number δ? by the addition of κζ and μη 
(ii. 36 sqq.), but whether he is here following Dercylides he does not say. 

Col. iii. 8. ν[μιν γ(]νησον[ται : the vestige before the lacuna and the arrangement of the 
lines makes the reading practically certain ; γςνήο-ονται υμΖν (FDM, Burnet) or ήμϊν MSS. 
10. (κ : or perhaps ey. 

Col. iv. 2. αρχήν was first written (no doubt owing to the following αρχαιαν) the 
€ having been inserted at the same time as the τ over χ, which has not been deleted. 
4. καταστασιν, as amended, is the ordinary reading. 
12. To which hand the insertion of the missing syllable is due is uncertain.

1809. Plato, Phaedo. 

1 1 -3 χ 1 1 -7 cm. Early second century. 

This fragment contains parts of three columns, of which the second, so far as 
it goes, is in fair preservation, but rather more than half the lines are missing at 
the foot. The hand is a small upright uncial of neat appearance, suggestive of 
the Trajan-Hadrian period. Vertical strokes are often finished at the base 
with a small hook or flourish which sometimes curves back to the perpendicular, 
e. g. in 1. 13 the τ of ενάντιων has the peculiar form J". Besides stops in the high 
and middle positions a colon, as in 1808, is used for punctuation, this latter and 
perhaps the others also being apparently by the original hand. Paragraph!

THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 



denote alternations in the dialogue ; whether they were accompanied by a colon, 
as usual, does not appear. Accents and breathings have been inserted here and 
there, more probably than not after the text was written ; they may be due to 
the hand which has added some notes in a small second-century cursive in the 
upper margin. Though the general purport of these annotations is clear they 
are obscured by mutilation, and it is a matter of doubt to which lines precisely 
they referred. Possibly the symbols in the margin of Col. iii were intended to 
mark the place of other notes which have been lost. 

The text is a good and interesting one, of the eclectic type frequently met 
with in papyri. Of the four readings in which the papyrus agrees with TW against 
B, three are accepted by Burnet (whose edition is the basis of the collation given 
below) and the fourth (iii. 13 ίφη, ω Κίβης for ω Κέβης, ίφη) may be right ; on the 
other hand, in ii. 14 it agrees with B 2 in καίτοι ούτι against the inferior και τοιούτο 
τι of BTW, and in ii. 12 has the preferable ovbi of BT against ούτί of B 2 W.

and though c 4 π]ρο? is possible, ] π|λ^^ would give too short a line. The double dot in 
1. 11 is not of much assistance, since this may represent either a stop or a change of 
speaker ; cf. int.

19. The first « of φα]ιν€ται is under t of \πανταπ\ασιν in the line above and τ of τωι in 
1. 17, so that [ούτω φα] is hardly enough for the lacuna, which may, however, be sufficiently 
filled by writing οντωί or οντωι. 

iii. 9. Whether the papyrus had wpos or eis is of course not determinable ; the same 
remark applies to ov\8 or ο | δ in 1. 12. 

10. The meaning of the marginal symbol, consisting of three heavy dots in the form 
pyramid, is unknown ; it may refer to a lost marginal note.

13. In the margin opposite this line there is a small circular mark like the sign for 
short quantity. 

14. καίτοι ούτι: SO Β 2 ; κα\ τοιούτα τι BTW. 

16. The marginal sign is on the broken edge of the papyrus and may be incomplete ; 
here, too, the meaning is obscure. 



1810. Demosthenes, Olynth. i-iii, Phil, i, De Pace. 

Width of column 6-6-5 cm. Early second century. Plate IV 

{Phil, i, Fr. 15). 

These fragments, covering the first five speeches of Demosthenes, are written 
in a graceful round hand similar in type to that of the British Museum Hyperides 
(cf. also e. g. 220), though more ornate and regular ; it may go back to the end of 
the first century, but more probably is to be assigned, like the Hyperides, to the 
earlier decades of the second. None of the columns is complete, but they 
consisted of about 33 lines apiece, with a broad margin both at the top and bottom, 



1810. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 195 

and the height of the roll must have approximated to 30 cm. Short lines are 
filled by the common angular sign. Paragraph! are used for purposes of 
punctuation, and the letter following the pause is sometimes slightly postponed ; 
points in the high and medial position are also employed, though some of these 
look like later additions. A later hand is also responsible for one or two small 
corrections, for the coronis at Olynth. iii. Fr. 5. ii. 10 and the mark of elision in 
Phil. i. 15. 17. 

The text is on the whole a good one, of the usual ' eclectic ' kind. Peculiar 
variants {Olynth. ii. Frs. 14-18. 19, 22, Olynth. iii. 7. 2-3, Phil. 17. 4-6, 21. 3-5) 
are unimportant, and there is no tendency to depart from the tradition of the 
MSS. Of these S, by common consent the best, is often supported, in several 
places against all other testimony (Olynth. ii. Frs. 9-1 1. i. 3, Frs. 12-13. 5, 12, 
Phil. 4. 1, 27. 2, De Pace 2. i. 6, 22) ; in Phil. 11-13. ii. 5 a vulgate spelling has 
apparently been converted later to that of S. On the other hand agreements 
with the readings of other MSS. against S are not uncommon (Olynth. ii. 
Frs. 2-3. 11 (= YOF), 9-11. i. 2, 14-18. 1, Olynth. iii. 5. ii. 19 (= A), Phil 4. 2 
( = γ λ 5-6. ιό (= FB), 11-13. i. 10, ii. 4, 14. i, 10, 18-20. 10 (= YO)). 

In the transcription given below, lines in minor pieces have been completed 
for the sake of convenience in reading, but in such cases the division of lines 
adopted is often quite hypothetical. In consequence of the fragments being so 
widely scattered over five speeches identification of small scraps is difficult, and 
a number of these have not been printed.

Fr. 1. The identification of this fragment is made with hesitation, since the reading 
προσήκον in place of προσήκον, though intelligible, is unattested, and it is not clear that any 
letter preceded e in 1. 1 ; on the other hand, the fact that 1. 5 is apparently the last of 
a column affords some confirmation, since the end of a column is expected at about this 
point, and no other suitable position for the fragment has been found in these five 
speeches. 

Frs. 3-4. 11. ]o is only a shade to the right of ]γ and ]θ in the preceding lines, and 
the omission of του before κατακανην (so Bl(ass) with Liban.) seems probable. 

Frs. 5-7. 12. /3αδι]£«[ι>] : so MSS., Liban. ; βαδίζοντα Bl. with Rh. Gr. ii. 679 &c. 

13-14. The papyrus seems to have had the ordinary reading. Dindorf read 01 (so 
Baiter) el (so two MSS.) μη, omitting fj with Rh. Gr. ii. 679 &c. Bl. similarly omits §, 
inserting a sign of interrogation after etireiv. 

15. Bl. brackets ετοίμω? following Rh. Gr. v. 36, vii. 941. 

17. ovres is bracketed by Bl. following Rh. Gr. iv. 739. 

24. γ seems to have been omitted after ηλικα, as in u (Coisl. 324). 

Fr. 8. The length of 1. 2 appears to suit this passage better than § 15 πολΙλάη φανωμεν 
(:'ρραιθνμηκό]τα, but the identification is not certain.

the position given to τι is apparently peculiar.

Fr. 21. 1. tovs, which Bl. omits with Schol. Aristid. p. 196, was evidently in the 
papyrus. 

3-5. There is apparently no authority for the insertion of S> Άνδρπ ΆΘ. after «π-ικ here, 
but this seems the easiest explanation of the clear ]va[ in 1. 5, which cannot be Suva unless 
there was a considerable omission ; moreover if [δυνη]θην[αι be read in 1. 4, the supplement 
at the end of 1. 3 becomes rather long. Cf. 01. 2. 10, where & Ζνδ. ΆΘ. follows ού γαρ ΐστιν, 
ουκ ϊστιν. The similarity of άνδρα δυνηθψαι and ανδρ^ Αθηναίοι might help to account for 
either the dropping or insertion of δ ανδ. ΆΘ. 

Fr. 24. 1. This line was probably the first of a new column, which is expected about 
this point. The margin above it, like that below Fr. 23. 9, is broken, but that the two 
fragments belonged to different columns is indicated by their dissimilar appearance.

1811. Demosthenes, C. Timocratem. 
16 χ 23 cm. 



Third century. 



Parts of three consecutive columns, written with a rather coarse pen in well 
formed medium-sized uncials of the sloping oval type, for which an approximate 
terminus ante quern is provided by remains of three columns of an account 
inscribed on the verso in cursive of about the middle or latter half of the third 
century. The hand of the recto, which does not suggest a date before A. D. 200, 
may therefore be appropriately referred to the first half of the century. 
Cols, i-ii consisted of 39 lines each, and the height of the roll, if the margin at 
the bottom was of similar depth to that at the top, was about 27 cm., while the 
width of the column was about 6 cm. Another hand, using a thinner pen and 
lighter coloured ink, has inserted a marginal adscript at Col. ii. 5 and supplied an 
omission in Col. iii. 22, and this hand may well be responsible for both the dots 
of punctuation (in all three positions) and a few rough breathings, which are no 
doubt secondary. 

Though, as usual, inconsistent in its support, 1811 shows some affinity with 
F (Marcianus 416), with which it agrees four times against the other MSS. 
Coincidences with A (iii. 13-16) and SAY (ii. 7) are also noticeable.

1812. Isocrates, Ad Deinonicutn. 

19-7x13-7 cm. Fifth or sixth century. 

This practically complete leaf from a papyrus codex is inscribed in a sloping 
uncial hand, similar in character to that of P. Rylands 58 (Plate 3), though rather 
more careful and regular, and is no doubNof about the same period. The ink, 
at the bottom of the verso partially obliterated, is of the characteristic reddish- 
brown shade. Stops in the middle position only are used. Whether a second 
hand can be distinguished is doubtful. The few alterations and insertions which 
occur are similar in style of writing and colour of ink to the body of the text, and 
must at any rate be practically contemporary. 

The pages are numbered 17 and 18 respectively, the numbers being placed 
as in a modern book in the top outside corners. In the corner opposite to that 
containing the figure 18 is a δ, which seems to be a stichometrical figure marking 
the 400th line. With about 25 lines to the page, if the outer page at the 
beginning of the book was left blank (cf. e. g. P. Rylands 58). the first line of the 
1 8th page would be approximately 1. 400. Survivals of the application of 
stichometry to the speeches of Isocrates are to be found in the Codex Urbinas 
(Γ), but the unit there is rather larger than that indicated by 1812. As Drerup 
observes in his edition, p. lxxxii, the hundreds of Γ correspond to about 93 lines 
of the Teubner text, but page 18 in the papyrus is preceded by only 316 such 
lines, or more than 50 short of what would on that proportion be expected. On 
the other hand, the length of the stichometrical line on the system of Γ is 
calculated by Drerup at 37 letters, which is precisely the length of line in 1812. 
The inconsistency is due to his estimating the Teubner line at 40 letters, whereas 
in the Ylpbs Αημόνικον, at any rate, that number is usually exceeded. 

The fact that the Upds Αημόνικον stood at the beginning of the codex 
suggests at the outset an affinity with the so-called vulgate (ΛΠ), but the textual 

Ρ 2 



212 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

position of the papyrus as between that family and Γ is a neutral one, the agree- 
ments and disagreements being fairly equally balanced. In one place a vulgate 
reading has been inserted as an alternative (1. 41). No support is given to the 
peculiar readings of ΣΤ. Besides the mediaeval MSS. there are available for 
comparison the eccentric second-century Berlin papyrus No. 8935, with which, 
among many natural discrepancies, two agreements on minor points are 
noticeable (11. 36, 42), and also for a few lines another papyrus fragment, of the 
third century, at Strasbourg, with which 1812 differs twice (11. 42, 48). Readings 
not otherwise attested are found in 11. 2 and 40, but they are unimportant.

1813. Codex Theodosianus vii. 

ι8•ι Χ9•ι cm. Early sixth century. 

Plate I (recto). 

The hand of this fragment from a vellum book is a fine specimen of Latin 
uncial writing, the letters, which are of medium size, being executed with much 
precision, and distinguished by both breadth and delicacy. If it belongs to the 
sixth century rather than the fifth, it is to be placed not later than the first third 
of the century, not only on the evidence of the hand but also because of the 
unlikelihood that after its supersession by Justinian's Codex of 529, the Codex 
of Theodosius would remain in demand. The fragment is thus approximately 
a contemporary of Paris. 9643 (R), on which the text of Book vii, the part of 
the Codex here concerned, principally depends. Eight lines are lost at the 
bottom of the recto, and if the margin below these corresponded to the deep 
margin at the top, the height of the page was approximately 29 cm. ; its breadth, 
on the supposition that the lateral margins were half as liberal as the upper one, 
would be something like 22«5 cm., a little broader than in 1097, from a papyrus 
codex of Cicero, which in height practically coincided. Beginnings and ends of 
the lines are missing throughout, and the precise point of division is obscured 
by the uncertainty whether or how much the first lines of paragraphs protruded 
into the left margin ; in the transcription below a protrusion of not more than 
one or two letters has been assumed. Double dots mark off the addresses and

dates of the rescripts from their texts. Abbreviations and numerals are usually 
accompanied by a medial dot ;p(rae/ectus) p(raetori)o, in the one place where it 
occurs, is written, with a horizontal line above, and a similar stroke was placed 
above numerals. There is no instance of punctuation, but the evidence is 
insufficient to infer that this was neglected. 

The text of 1813 is close to that of R. In vii. 8. 11 the name Eutyckiamwt, 
over which R blunders, is correctly given, but some other misspellings are 
common to both; in vii. 8. 12 they agree on vela, where bella is restored from 
Cod. lust., and at the end of vii. 8. 10 in the insertion of conss.

1814. Index to Codex Iustinianus, First Edition. 

ν 34.3 χ 22-4 cm. a. d. 529-535. Plate V (verso). 

This mutilated leaf from a papyrus book proves to be both from the juristic 
and the palaeographical point of view exceptionally interesting. It contains 
part of an index of rubrics and inscriptions of Justinian's Codex, not, however, 
of the extant second edition, but as originally issued in the year 529. This 
explanation, for which we are indebted to Professor de Zulueta, of the divergences 
of the index from the Codex as we have it, accounts so completely for the 
facts that no reasonable doubt can be entertained of its correctness. 

Of the relation of the two editions of the Codex a good account is given by 

Rotondi in Bull, delt Istituto di diritto romano, 1918, pp. 153 sqq. The second 

edition, which was five years later than the first, was a thorough revision designed, 

as stated in the prefatory constitution of Dec. 534 De emendatione codicis, 

to embody and co-ordinate the many new decisions and constitutions issued in 

the interval. It is precisely the absence of later matter of this kind that 

distinguishes our index. The most significant passage is 11. 42-6. Here the 

ordinary text of the Cod. lust. i. 17 gives two constitutions of the years 530 and 533 

under the rubric De veteri iure enucleando et auctoritate iuris prudentium qui in 

digestis referuntur. In 1814 the rubric is much simpler, approximating to the 

corresponding one of Cod. Theod. i. 4, and the two new constitutions of 530 and 

533 are replaced by two others, of which one emanated from Justinian but the 

other is Cod. Theod. i. 4. 3, of A. D. 426. This evidence, which of itself would 

be sufficiently conclusive, is supported by analogous indications elsewhere. Thus 

the papyrus omits i. 14. 12, of Nov. 529, and the anti-Manichaean i. 11. 10, the 

exact date of which is unknown but which, as Kriiger states, is probably posterior 

to i. 5. 18, being connected in substance with i. 5. 19-21 of 529-3 1 • Its 

absence in the first edition of the Codex would therefore be expected. Again, 

the papyrus index passes directly from Cod. lust. i. 11 to i. 14, omitting the two 

titles 12 and 13, which are both concerned with the Church. It is clear from 

the numbering of the rubrics preserved on the verso of the leaf that in this 

edition, as in the second, the principle of beginning with the ecclesiastical titles, 

which in the Codex Theodosianus had been placed at the end (Cod. lust. i. 1-11 = 

Cod. Theod. xvi. i-io), had already been adopted. That principle was only 

carried out with more completeness in the second edition by the insertion after 

i. 11 of two other titles connected with ecclesiastical matters from other parts of 

the Codex. In this procedure the revisors were acting quite in accordance with their 

powers ' as laid down by the constitution De emendatione codicis § 3 si quae 



2i8 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

(constitutiones) similes vel contrariae inve7iirentur,circumdticere et a prioris codicis 
congregatione separare. 

Though primarily valuable as a relic of £he original edition, the papyrus 
makes some contributions also to the text of the extant Codex. While agreeing 
with the MSS. in the omission of Septimio in 1. 20, it inserts the name Sext{io) 
in 1. 49 (with Cod. Theod.), Julio in 1. 48, and apparently M(arco) before Palladio 
in 1. 13 ; it adds ν prov{inciarum) (again with Cod. Theod.) after vic{ario) in I. 8, 
but omits et constdi designate in l. 27 and nobilissimi in l. 52. Evidently in the 
inscriptions of the constitutions little reliance can be placed upon the evidence of 
the MSS. on such matters ; the tendency to abbreviate was not to be resisted, 
and Kruger's rule (cf. ed. mai. pp. xv, xxiii sqq.) of supplying a full inscription 
from any available source is justified. Thus he had already adopted Sextio in 
i. 18. 2, and at any rate Tulio can now be added in 18. 1 : consistency would 
suggest the acceptance also of quinqite provinciarum in i. 11. 3. There is further 
some useful evidence on individual points of detail. Lines 16-17 show that 
Cod. i. 11. 9, the inscription of which was missing, is to be attributed to 
Anastasius, and 11. 31-2 confirm the attribution of i. 14. 10 to Leo and 
Anthemius ; the name of the addressee is in both cases lost. After 1. 41 there is 
nothing corresponding to the supposed Greek constitution to which a place 
is assigned by Kruger at i. 16. 2, and the existence of that constitution, though 
not disproved, becomes more questionable. 

Palaeographically the fragment is of importance, since there are few 
examples of early Latin uncials that can be so precisely dated with equal security. 
It is highly improbable that the first edition of the Codex would continue to be 
copied in Egypt after being superseded by the second, especially in view of the 
express prohibition in the constitution De emendatione codicis § 5 ex prima lustiniani 
codicis editione aliquid recitare. The date of this manuscript may therefore be 
placed with small risk of error in the six years following April 529. The letters, 
written in brown ink, are of medium size and well formed, but the pen was 
rather coarse and the papyrus not of the best quality, so that, especially on the 
verso, the effect is not elegant. In rounded letters the separate strokes are not 
always closely joined. As in 1813, abbreviations are commonly followed by 
a medial dot often accompanied, in the case of aa, cc, pp, &c, by a horizontal 
stroke over the letters ; but the scribe is inconsistent, omitting sometimes the 
dot and sometimes the stroke ; he writes both impp- and imp-p- but the latter is 
probably due to inadvertence, bo = -bus in 1. 18. When rubrics or inscriptions 
extend to a second line or more, these are considerably indented. Rubrics are 
marked off by horizontal dashes above and below them and the letter ψ is placed 
both in front and at the end of each, as in the Verona fragments, whose practice 



1814. EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 219 

is followed by Kriiger in his large edition. The prefixed ψ is accompanied by 
the number of the rubric, in Greek figures ; constitutions, with one exception 
(1. 37), are not numbered. The first rubric on the recto is written in enlarged 
uncial letters. Apparent remains of pagination are visible in the top right-hand 
corner of the verso, probably [ ]«: or[ }κθ, which are higher figures than would 
be expected unless the index was preceded by other matter.

_ 3. This constitution is absent in Cod. lust. Since a pagan emperor is excluded by the 
subject, and the first constitution should be older than the second, the choice of the emperor 
is limited to Constantine or Constantius, and the name in either case must have been 
considerably abbreviated. As the scribe uses the form Constantin- (11. 4, 20, 58), it 
is perhaps better to suppose that Const- here = Constantius ; cf. 1. 5, where Theodosius is 
shortened to Theod. Di]odoto is preferred to The\odoto as the shorter. 

4. Constantin{iis) : 1. Constantius. The same error is found in SCR.

veteres iuris inierpretatores, but it i* unlikely that that section, still less the entire constitution, 
stood in this position, where some other rescript to Menas, superseded subsequently, like

there is something that may be read as ] . Ii . [ or perhaps as ] . //• This constitution is 
apparently to be connected with iii. 44. 8, issued on the same date and addressed to Iuliae,

HOMERIC FRAGMENTS 

(The collations are with Ludwich's text.) 



1815. 14-5x19-1 cm. Parts of two columns, written in an informal sloping 
hand on the verso of a fragment of a second-century taxing-account. Col. i

1816. 25-7 x 7-7 cm. Fragment containing ends of Ο 332-70 (complete 
column) and 386-409 (end of col., the upper part of Col. ii being lost), in 
nearly upright somewhat irregular uncials of about the middle of the third 

century. A mark of elision in 1. 340. 338 om. 340 δ' bios 344 (]νιττρη-

having been inserted here. The papyrus is broken above va[. 389 om. ; 
cf. 1. 386. On the verso a late third-century account. 

1817. Fragments of three leaves, written with brown ink in a good-sized 
sloping and fairly regular hand in which light and heavy strokes are strongly 
contrasted. Probably sixth century. Accents, breathings, and marks of 
elision are frequent, and apparently all due to the original scribe. Stops in

the high and middle position are used. These fragments were found with 
1818, and possibly belonged to the same codex or corpus, but the scripts, 
though they may be contemporary, are quite distinct.

1818. Parts of five leaves of a papyrus book, written with brown ink in an ugly 
sloping hand of the fifth or sixth century, rather similar in type to that of 
1618. Accents, breathings, and marks of elision have been freely inserted, 
partly by the original writer, but many being due to a second hand which 
has also added some of the stops (high and middle position) and made 
corrections in the text. The method of accentuation hardly differs from 
modern practice, except with regard to the retracted accent. e has 
frequently been written for at or vice versa, and many such misspellings 
have been corrected both by the first and second hands ; these variations, 
and the common confusion of ι and et, are generally not noticed in the 
following collation. A few scraps have not been identified.

uncials which may be assigned to the second century. Two marks of length 
and many accents (acute-angled), breathings, marks of elision, diaereses, and 
stops in the high position have been inserted by a later hand, probably 
that of the corrector who has made a few alterations in the text. The 
columns had a marked slope to the right, the last line of Fr. 2. ii beginning 
about 6 letters in advance of the first line. A facsimile of that fragment

112, and is of the sixth or seventh century. Stops in two positions (high 
and medial), accents, breathings, and marks of elision and quantity are fairly 
frequent ; a few of these are evidently original, but the majority, which are 
more lightly written, are later additions, due probably to one of the correctors, 
.of whom two, one using cursive forms, seem to be distinguishable. Besides 
these common signs a comma to separate words, and its converse, the 
sub-linear hyphen, occur among the subsequent insertions. The dimensions 
of the complete page may be estimated at about 34 χ 19 cm.

IV. MINOR LITERARY FRAGMENTS 

1821. 6-8x4 cm. Beginnings of 9 verses, hexameters or elegiacs, from the 
bottom of a column, written in a rather small, informal, upright hand of the 
third century. Marks of elision are used.

1822. 3$•$ χ 17 cm. On the recto remains of two columns of an account. On 
the verso ends and beginnings of lines of two columns from a hexameter 
poem, apparently relating to astronomy, e. g. i. π α]κροθι νυκτός 18 ]ei8eTai eibos'

Kpovos Ερμ[ειας. Most of the lines of Col. i have a high or medial stop at the 

end. The last line of Col. ii is opposite i. 30, but the column begins at a 

higher point than Col. i and the lines are rather closer together, so that the 

number of the lines was probably the same in both. This papyrus was 

found with 1796, and is in much the same condition ; the texts on the verso 

are apparently in the same hand, and the marginalia, too, are similar. But 

the height of 1822 is quite different from that of 1796, and there is no 

connexion in subject ; the hands and contents of the rectos also differ, so 

that it is clear that two distinct rolls are represented. Second century. 

1823. 2θ•8 x 6-6 cm. Strip from a column containing parts of 28 lines of a tragedy, 
11. 7-15 at least being stichomuthic. Resolution is frequent. The upright 
well-formed uncial hand is evidently early, and may go back to the beginning 
of the first century B. c.

1824. g.gx6-i cm. Fragment of a (Menandrian ?) comedy, from the top of 
a column. Alternations of the dialogue are indicated by double dots, and 
the names of speakers in abbreviated form have been entered above the line 
in cursive, as e. g. in 211. The speakers are Λάχης and Mt£( ), a name 
which does not occur in comedy but may stand e. g. for Μιξίδημος, Mt£ias, 
Μίξων, or Μιξωνίδης, and one of them is betrothing a girl called Pamphile (?) 
to the other. The text is written across the fibres of the verso (the recto 
being blank) in medium-sized sloping uncials, probably of the third century. 
Besides the double dots a high stop is used ; a mark of elision (H 2 ?) occurs 
in 1. 10. Several lines are evidently nearly complete at the ends.

228 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

In 1. 3 there is a small mark after Mi£' on the edge of the papyrus, but it 
does not suggest any letter. For 1. 9 cf. e. g. 211. 38-9 ; it may be inferred 
with some probability that the fragment is from the conclusion of the play. 
In 1. 11 the small interlinear dash probably belongs to an abbreviation of 
one of the speakers' names. 
1825. 1 1-9 χ 13-1 cm. Fragment from the top of a leaf of a papyrus codex, 
containing on the recto ends of 8 lines, and on the verso beginnings of 
10 lines, from a comedy. The hand is a round upright uncial of medium 
size, dating perhaps from the fifth century. Accents, &c, which are fairly 
frequent, may be by the original scribe, but a corrector's hand is apparently 
to be distinguished in verso 2. Brown ink, rather faded and effaced 
in places.

230 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 

1828. 4-9 x 2*9 cm. Fragment of a vellum leaf, inscribed in well-formed rather 
small sloping uncials of, probably, the third century. The contents are of 
an ethical character. Apparently the lines were of no great length, but their 
point of division is not fixed. The vellum is thin and rather discoloured. 

Recto or flesh side.

The Egypt Exploration Society 



GRAECO-ROMAN MEMOIRS. 
JV/E EGYPT EXPLORATION SOCIETY, as recently reconstituted and renamed, 

proposes to continue with but slight modifications the work of the Egypt Exploration Fund, 
which was founded in 1882 to conduct archaeological researches in Egypt. In 1897 a special 
department, called the Graeco-Roman Branch, was initiated for the discovery and public alion 
of remains of classical antiquity and early Christianity in Egypt. The volumes published by 
the Graeco-Roma?i Branch are to be continued under the name of Graeco-Roman Memoirs. It 
is intended that they shall appear annually, as heretofore, under the editorship of Profs. Grenfell 
and Hunt. Each will consist of 250 quarto pages or more, with facsimile plates of the more 
important papyri. 

All persons interested in the promotion of the Society's objects are eligible for election as 
Members. An entrance fee of £1 is. is payable on election, and an annual subscription of 
£2 2 j. is due annually on fanuary 1. Members have the right of attendance and voting at all 
meetings, and may introduce friends to the Lectures and Exhibitions of the Society, and have 
access to the Library now in course of formation at the Society's Rooms. 

The fournal of Egyptian Archaeology or, if preferred, a Graeco-Roman Memoir is 
presented gratis to all Members, and other publications may be purchased by the?n at a substan- 
tial discount. Full particulars maybe obtained from the Secretary, 13 Tavistock Square, 
London, W.C. 1, or from the Secretary of the American Branch, 503 Tre?nont Temple, Boston, 
Mass., U.S.A.
