8 James T. Lees, 



The division between the rrpoOea-i^ and 7ri(TTeL<i is often 

 clearly defined by such words as (f>ep6, aye, etc. As, for 

 example, Andr. 333 : 



MeveXae, (jiepe Srj Siairepdvcofxev Xoyovf. 



Also Andr. 662 : 



Kalroi <fiep\ ayjraaOai, jap ovk alcr'^^pov Xoyov. 



Medeia 499 : 



a 7', ft)9 (f)L\(p yap OVTL (TOi KOlVOXTOfiai. 



The TTLarei'i are sometimes introduced by irpwrov or Trpwra. 



Hipp. 991 : 



irpoiTa 8' ap^ojjbai Xeyecv. 



Hiket. 517 : 



Kal irpSira puev ere 7rp6<; ra irpoir afiel-^oiiav. 



Troad. 919 : 



TrpcoTov /jL€V ap'^a<; €T€K€V k.t.X. 



Occasionally the clew to the division is given by some 

 other word, as in Iph. Aul. 381, elire [xoo. Ion 589, aKovaov. 

 Or in a more general way, as in Hek. 1 196 : 



7r/309 rovhe K eifit Kal \6yoi<i afiel-yjrofiai. 



Sometimes the speaker balances the arguments of his 

 opponent with his own. Herak. 153 : 



(pep^ avride^ yap. 

 Orest. 551 : 



hvo yap aVTbOei; Xoyw. 

 Phoin. 559 : 



ay , rjV cr epwfJiaL Zvo \6ycd TrpoOeia apua. 



The end of thfe Trto-ret? can frequently be detected by some 

 phrase, as, for example, Bak. 309 : 



aXX' e'/xoi . . . ttiOov. 



The same words occur in Kyklops 309, Herak. 174.
