al_ to his evidence (i. 768), he gives the second member thus,--iv.
353:

[Greek: kai proseuchesthe huper ton epereazonton humas].... 1. 4.

Next observe how Clemens Al. (605) handles the same place:--

[Greek: agapate tous echthrous humon, eulogeite tous kataromenous humas,
kai proseuchesthe huper ton epereazynton humin, kai ta homoia.]... 1, 2,
4.--3, 5.

Justin M. (i. 40) quoting the same place from memory (and with exceeding
licence), yet is observed to recognize in part _both_ the clauses which
labour under suspicion:... 1, 2, 4.--3, 5.

[Greek: euchesthe huper ton echthron humon kai agapate tous misountas
humas], which roughly represents [Greek: kai eulogeite tous kataromenous
humin kai euchesthe huper ton epereazonton humas].

The clause which hitherto lacks support is that which regards [Greek:
tous misountas humas]. But the required help is supplied by Irenaeus (i.
521), who (loosely enough) quotes the place thus,--

_Diligite inimicos vestros, et orate pro eis, qui vos oderunt._ ... 1
(made up of 3, 4).--2, 5.

And yet more by the most venerable witness of all, Polycarp, who
writes:--ad Philipp. c. 12:--

_Orate pro persequentibus et odientibus vos._... 4, 5.--1, 2, 3.

I have examined [Didache] _Justin_, _Irenaeus_, _Eusebius_,
_Hippolytus_, _Cyril Al._, _Greg. Naz._, _Basil_, _Athan._, _Didymus_,
_Cyril Hier._, _Chrys._, _Greg. Nyss._, _Epiph._, _Theod._, _Clemens._

And the following are the results:--

Didache. [Greek: Eulogeite tous kataromenous humin, kai proseuchesthe
huper ton echthron humon, nesteuete huper ton diokonton humas ... humeis
de agapate tous misountas humas].... 2, 3, 4, 5.
