page 157 note 1 I am not in a position to consult the studies which deal with this subject. [This article was already in type when I found that Fick (Hesiods Gedichte, pp. 69 ff.) had taken a very similar view of the Heliconian prelude. We differ, however, in details as well as in our reasons for believing the prelude to be composite.]

page 158 note 1 L. 25 (in which the Muses are addressed as Olympian) is surely a thoughtless interpolation of a ‘stock line,’ taken from 1. 52 (cp. 11. 966, 1022), just as W. and D. 124–5 is copied from id. 254–5.

page 158 note 2 Line 8 may well be an interpolation of a familiar class.
