page 37 note 3 Some passages drifted into Dioscorides and into Galen (De victu att.); e.g. from Book IV. as Kalbfleisch pointed out about twenty years ago.

page 38 note 1 As being something of a dilettante in lexicons, may I say that J. G. Schneider's Greco-German. Wörterbuch (third edition, 1819) is very valuable, as it contains many curious and out-of-the-way words, especially in science.
