32 [ {prosson} refers grammatically only to {autos}, and marks the
reference as being chiefly to himself throughout the sentence.]

Egypt."]

37 [ The island of Carpathos, the modern Scarpanto.]

38 [ {to thulako periergasthai}: which is susceptible of a variety of
meanings. In a similar story told of the Chians the Spartans are made to
say that it would have been enough to show the empty bag without saying
anything. (Sext. Empir. ii. 23.) Probably the meaning here is that if
they were going to say so much, they need not have shown the bag, for
the words were enough without the sight of the bag: or it may be only
that the words {o thulakos} were unnecessary in the sentence {o thulakos
alphiton deitai}.]

40 [ {genee}. To save the chronology some insert {trite} before {genee},

42 [ {noo labon}: the MSS. have {now labon kai touto}.]

43 [ {iren zemien}.]

44 [ {tauta ta nun ekhon presseis}: the form of sentence is determined
by its antithesis to {ta agatha ta nun ego ekho}.]

45 [ {basileus}, because already destined as his father's successor.]

46 [ {sphea}: the MSS. have {sphe} here, and in the middle of the next
chapter.]
