^{page 84 note 1} I think the original space allotment for Galen was to be thirteen volumes.

^{page 84 note 2} See Ilberg in Mus. Rhen., XLIV., 1889. Galen proposed more than once to write a treatise on what I may call the Higher Criticism' of the Hippocratic Canon; but, if he carried out his intention, the work is lost. Mewaldt (Hermes, Bd. 44, 1909), thinks that we possess certain fragments of it which have passed under other titles.

^{page 85 note 1} Mewaldt here refers to his researches in Acta Acad. Berol., 1912, p. 896.
