摘要：Many of the imagined difficulties in these two lines owe their existence to the prejudiced notion that a poet who alludes to the text of another poet must reproduce that poet's text. And yet, perhaps no more artistically than here, the poet of the Megara has echoed several of his predecessors and added original touches. •Qr;;' ar,/lcp1'j is very common in Homer at the conclusion of a speech occuring no less than twenty-five times with M introducing (as here) the following clause 1). But our poet in this passage clearly had in mind A.R. 4. 34: ..Qr;; ae' lcp1'j, ßkcpdewv öi uaT' ri0eoa t5dueva Xevsv. He recognized that Apollonius' dOeoa was an innovation; Homer commonly employs Oal'SeOr;; with 'tears', never dO(!oO(; (cf. 11.6.496,17.696,23.397,24.9,794). He therefore substituted the more Homeric adjective but kept ödueva in the same position.
