author of the Xp. II. has changed to all appearances his 
Euripides.

7tA.£xrcSv 7tpdf> oiuovf, uXipduGov ?t podccp ftdd si ?. The cor¬ 
rection of TtXsKrcSv to 7 tr/KTGov has been spoken of on 
page 369. In this line ?rp 65 hpfiddsi^ is plainly a corruption 
of npodapfiadsis, which word the author of the Xp. n. ap¬ 
parently did not understand. But the singular nXipanoi 
is either a variant reading or a deliberate change. The 
singular uXipaKof, with Tipodapfiadsi 5 is found in Aesch. 
Sept. 466 and Eur. Phoen. 1173. More instructive is Phoen. 
489, where Ttpurcdv uXiuaHcov Ttpodappddsi 5 is read, the 
two passages being plainly imitations, the one of the other. 
This seems a strong argument against Doering’s sugges¬ 
tion that “ Ttpura^ passt besser zu den Stufen Oder Spros- 
sen, als zu der Leiter.”

43. 1244. Xp. 77 1048 go psysQo 5 for go 7tsr0o 5 .' Here 7tsv0o 5 is restored 
by all the editors of the Xp. II. It is doubly strange that 
this corruption should have crept in, as it introduces a 
resolved foot, which, as we shall later see, the author of the 
Xp. 77 plainly avoided. It seems probable that psysOos 
stood in his Euripidean MS. 
44. 1245. Xp. 77 1049 iqsipyadpsroi for s^sipyadpsvGor. P. reads here 
s^sipyadpsvdov. Probably the author of the Xp. 77 did 
not understand the construction.

To this list should be added the cases in which, to avoid a resolved 
foot, a change has been made by the author of the Xp. 77, which num¬ 
ber 22, and are catalogued on pp. 376 sq. 
In the following instances neither our MSS. nor the Xp. II. has pre¬ 
served the correct reading.

This is explained by itacism.
