[131] The passages alluded to above are Eubulus (Nannion, fr. 1, p. 449), Xenarchus (Pentathlos, fr. 1, p. 624), and Philemon (Adelphoi, fr. 1).
[132] Mid the philosophers I count the cook.
[133] Compare Sosipater (Katapseudomenos, p. 677) for a similar display of science; Euphron (Incert. Fab. fr. 1, p. 682), for a comparison of cooks with poets; Hegesippus (Adelphi, p. 676), for an egregious display of culinary tall-talk.
[134] Pollux mentions a list of celebrated authors on cookery.
[135] See in particular Hegesippus (Philetæri, p. 676); Baton (Androphonus, fr. 1, p. 684, and Synexapaton, fr. 1, p. 686), and Damoxenus (Syntrophi, pp. 697, 698).
[136] The fragment from the Ἁλιεῖς, p. 3 of Didot's Menander, is clearly dramatic, and cannot be taken as an expression of the poet's mind.
[137] Those fragments are from the Ὑποβολίμαιος, pp. [48], [49].
[138] Compare Βοιωτία, fr. 2, p. 9; Μισογύνης, fr. 1, p. 32; Πλόκιον, fr. 8, p. 42.
