It is unnecessary to interfere with the purposed vagueness of the two last lines, by conjecturing 6V e tcrov vol r elari Ka tois (rots tckvois. 449, tuv avdpa tovtov, ou Ttakai farels aiTeCkwv KavaKrjpvcrcrcov cpovov tov Aateiov, ovtos ecrriv ivOdde gevos Xoycu peroiKos, elra 5' (yy fvrjs (pavrjcreTai Qrjfiaios. I have removed the comma after ivOdbe, because (while other commentators take iarv evddde as a full predicate, supplying <Si/ with neToiKos) I incline to think the construction is : ovtos io-nv peroiKos evOdbe, {vvv pev) yq> gevos, efra be (epya) (pavrjo-eTai Orj^alos.
