=188=, 335-42. =what the good Greeke moralist sayes . . . of both.= This passage is based upon the _Discourses_ of Epictetus, bk. IV, vii, 13, which, however, Chapman completely misinterprets. Epictetus is demonstrating that a reasonable being should be able to bear any lot contentedly. "+theleis penian phere kai gnôsêi ti estin penia tychousa kalou hypokritou. theleis archas? phere, kai ponous.+"
+hypokritês+ is used here metaphorically, of one who acts a part in life, not, as Chapman takes it, of an actor in the professional sense.
=188-189=, 354-5. =The splenative philosopher . . . all.= Democritus.
=189=, 356-74. =All objects . . . they were.= These lines are suggested by Juvenal's _Satire_, X, ll. 33-55, but they diverge too far from the original to be merely a paraphrase, as they are termed by the editor of the 1873 reprint.
=191=, 17-18. =That . . . fire.= Cf. _Bussy D'Ambois_, V, iv, 148-53.
=194=, 75. =These . . . armes.= Cf. _Bussy D'Ambois_, V, i, 128-154.
=200-201=, 40-3. =Since they . . . wrong'd:= since these decrees ensure the performance of that guardianship, so that earth and heaven are kept true to their original order and purpose, in no case must the wrong suffered by an individual man, as he thinks, be considered really a wrong done to him.
=203=, 105. =Euphorbus=, son of Panthous, a Trojan hero, who first wounded Patroclus, but was afterwards slain by Menelaus. Pythagoras, as part of his doctrine of the transmigration of souls, is said to have claimed to have been formerly Euphorbus.
=204=, 113-22. =What said . . . power.= The reference is to Sophocles' _Antigone_, 446-457, where the Princess justifies herself for burying her brother's body in defiance of Creon's edict.
=205=, 135-6. =For . . . authoritie.= The lines here paraphrased, to which Chapman gives a marginal reference, are from the _Antigone_, 175-7.
+Amêchanon de pantos andros ekmathein psychên te kai phronêma kai gnômên, prin ain archais te kai nomoisin entribês phainêi.+
=205=, 141. =virtuosi.= The word is here used not in the sense of _connoisseurs_, but of _devotees of virtue_. The editor has not been able to trace any other instance of this.
=206=, 157-60. =that lyons . . . prey.= Adapted and expanded from the _Discourses_ of Epictetus, bk. IV, i, 25. The original of the words quoted marginally by Chapman in a Latin version is, +ouchi d' hosôi malakôteron diexagei, tosoutôi doulikôteron?+
