[32] But there; that is, in the regions below.

[33] Ovid. Metamorph. vii. 20.

Video meliora proboque,

Deteriora sequor.

[34] Elmsley reads

παυρον δε γενος (μιαν εν πολλαις

‛ευροις αν ισως)

ουκ, κ.τ.λ.

"But a small number of the race of women (you may perchance find one among many) not ungifted with the muse."

[35] A similar expression is found in Iphig. Taur, v. 410. ναϊον οχημα. A ship is frequently called ‛Ερμα θαλασσης: so Virgil, Æn. vi. Classique immittit habenas.
