Greek original · Adler’s text

Ταύτῃ· τούτου ἕνεκεν, ἢ οὕτως. ταύτῃ τοι οὐ πολὺ ὕστερον παρελύθη τῆς ἀρχῆς. καὶ αὖθις· ταύτῃ τοι καὶ οὔ τι εὐλαβούμενος εἴποιμι. καὶ αὖθις· καὶ ἐδόκει ταύτῃ γε τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ διαφέρειν. καὶ αὖθις· ὁ δὲ Βροῦτος ταύτῃ οὐδὲ ἐπείρασε διαβῆναι, ἑτέραν δέ τινα μακροτέραν περιελθόντες.

Notes (5)

  1. 1Likewise in the Synagoge (tau41) and Photius' Lexicon (tau82 Theodoridis), similarly already in Hesychius (tau265) and elsewhere. ↩
  2. 2Adler attributed the sentence to Aelian, but Zintzen accepts it as fr. 177 of Damascius, Life of Isidore. ↩
  3. 3Quotation unidentifiable. ↩
  4. 4Damascius, Life of Isidore fr.324 Zintzen (296 Asmus): quoted more fully at omicron 914. ↩
  5. 5G. Wirth (not Roos, as in Adler), Flavii Arriani ... Scripta minora et fragmenta (1967) suggests the name is Brutius and identifies him as C. Bruttius [sic] Praesens, consul 139 CE (see generally OCD(4) 254); but he only comments on this in his note on fr.85 of the Parthica and does not quite assign it as a fragment. ↩
