Ermerins merely changes the ty into ycc. I trust every candid and learned reader will admit, that I have great- ly improved the meaning by the slight changes which I have ven- tured to make. From the transla- tion of Crassus, it may be inferred that he had read ai)p, or at least had seen the necessity of introduc- ing it into the text: “ Aer enim spi- rando siccus adducitur.” I need scarcely add, that in the old Ionic, which our author affects, ayp is often put in the feminine gender. This was also the case in old Latin. See A. Gellius, xiii. 19. 2 Ermerins suppresses the words a7ro twv KpiOeuiv; but this seems an unwarrantable liberty. By a small alteration I have made, the text be- comes sufficiently amended. On the ancient Zythi, see Appendix to the Edinburgh Greek Lexicon. 3 Ermerins has ingeniously sub- stituted the last two words for ip- ttovuiv, a vocable of doubtful mean- ing.$
