Reading ἀκοὔειν, which seems far the best reading.

Homer, "Iliad," v. 226; "Odyssey," vi. 81.

"Bacchæ," 385-387.

See Ovid, "Tristia," iv. 4, 55-58.

For example, Horace, "Epistles," i. 2, 62: "Ira furor brevis est" I read ὁμότοιχος with Mez.

Compare the German proverb, "Thought when sober, said when drunk"—"Nuchtern gedacht, voll gesagt."

Cf. Quintilian, x. 1, 78: "His ætate Lysias major, subtilis atque elegans et quo nihil, si oratori satis est docere, quæras perfectius. Nihil enim est inane, nihil arcessitum; puro tamen fonti quam magno flumini propior." Cf. ix. 4, 17.

Somewhat like Pindar, "Pyth." i. 1. 1, 2.

"Odyssey," xii. 452, 453.
