λασίοισι, according to the Schol. A, because they cover the heart, ἐν ἧι ἐστὶ τὸ πυρῶδες καὶ θερμὸν καὶ μανικὸν τῆς ψυχῆς .. ἡ θέρμη γὰρ αἰτία τῆς ἐκφύσεως τῶν τριχῶν. So Hentze quotes Galen, De Temp. εἴ τις ἱκανῶς εἴη δασὺς τὰ στέρνα, θυμικὸν ἀποφαίνονται. |

διάνδιχα μερμήριξεν: see note on 8.167, (ὁ ὀβελός) ὅτι δύο ἐμερίμνησεν οὐκ ἐναντία ἀλλήλοις, ὅπερ ἐκλαβών τις προσέθηκεν “ἦε χόλον παύσειεν,” and on 192, ὅτι ἐκλύεται τὰ τῆς ὀργῆς (the picture of passion is weakened): διὸ ἀθετεῖται — Ariston. These remarks are perfectly right; διάνδιχα μερμήριξεν means ‘he had “half a mind,”’ and does not require two alternatives expressed; and 192 entirely spoils the picture. |
