Odyssey
of
Tryphiodorus
, in all probability, would have been oftner quoted by our learned Pedants, than the
Odyssey
of
Homer
. What a perpetual Fund would it have been of obsolete Words and Phrases, unusual Barbarisms and Rusticities, absurd Spellings and complicated Dialects? I make no question but it would have been looked upon as one of the most valuable Treasuries of the
Greek
Tongue.
