[1] I.e. the Ocean.

[2] Compare the ἐρινεὸς μέγας φύλλοισι τεθηλὼς in the Odyssey, Book XII., 103.

[3] The metre of this line is incorrect. There is a superfluous syllable. Perhaps we ought to read ambuvegatah̤, by the current.

[4] I think we ought to read adhaḥ, downwards.

[5] Cp. Odyssey XII., 432

αὐτὰρ ἐγὼ ποτὶ μακρὸν ἐρινεὸν ὑψόσ’ ἀερθείς

τῷ προσφὺς ἐχόμην ὡς νυκτερίς.

See also Lane’s Arabian Nights, Vol. III, p. 7.

[6] ἀλλ’ ἄρα ἥ γε κατ’ ἀνδρῶν κράατα βαίνει. Iliad XIX, v. 93.
