[p. 206]
1 The common reading, instead of μέγα, is μετά; in Kühn's edition, κατά. The reading I have introduced seems to me self-evident.
2 Ermerins does right in substituting this word for στορύνη. See, in particular, Pollux, and the note of Fëos, Oec. Hippocrat., under this word. It was a sort of ladle.
3 The common reading in all the editions, except that of Ermerins, is ἰσθμοειδῶν.
4 though I have not ventured to change πυρίῃσι into πυρῆνι, I have little doubt that the latter (which signifies the knob of a specillum or cautery) is the true reading. See P. ae. vi. 66, et pluries.
5 Ermerins suppresses τῶ ἐμπάττειν altogether; and seemingly these are superfluous, and unsuitable to this place.
6 the common reading is σύκων δὲ ὀπώρη, which Ermerins has altered to ὀπώρης δὲ σῦκα. It will be seen that, by a less violent change, I have succeeded in amending the text.
