proceed in worship, turning
their attention to (1) the momentary incidents of weather, rain,
sunshine, thunder, &c.; (2) the Moon; (3) the Sun and stars, see Payne,
_History of the New World called America_, vol. i, p. 474, cited by Miss
Harrison, _Themis_, p. 390.

[31:1] On the subject of Initiations see Webster, _Primitive Secret
Societies_, New York, 1908; Schurtz, _Altersklassen und Maennerbunde_,
Berlin, 1902; Van Gennep, _Rites de Passage_, Paris, 1909; Nilsson,
_Grundlage des Spartanischen Lebens_ in Klio xii (1912), pp. 308-40;
Themis, p. 337, n. 1. Since the above, Rivers, _Social Organization_,
1924.

_Hibbert Journal_, January 1912, p. 393.

[31:3] Cf. Cardinal Virtues, Pindar, _Nem._ iii. 72:

+en paisi neoisi pais, en andrasin aner, triton
en palaiteroisi meros, hekaston hoion echomen
broteon ethnos. ela de kai tessaras aretas
ho thnatos aion,+

also Pindar, _Pyth._ iv. 281.

[32:1] See Woodward in _B. S. A._ xiv, 83. Nikagoras won four
(successive?) victories as +mikkichizomenos+, +propais+, +pais+, and
+melleiren+, i. e. from his tenth to fifteenth year. He would then at 14
or 15 become an _iran_. Plut. _Lyc._ 17 gives the age of an _iran_ as
20. This agrees with the age of an +ephebos+ at Athens as '15-20',
'14-21', 'about 16'; see authorities in Stephanus s. v. +ephebos+. Such
variations in the date of 'puberty ceremonies' are common.

[32:2] See _Rise of the Greek Epic_, Appendix on Hym. Dem.; and W. R.
Halliday, _C. R._ xxv, 8. Nilsson's valuable article has appeared since
the above was written (see note 1, p. 31).

Philosophy_ (Cambridge, 1912), i; also my article on English and Greek
Tragedy in _Essays of the Oxford English School_, 1912. This explanation
of the +tritos soter+ is my conjecture.
