¹ Among the epideictic features, p. xxxiv, the Isocratean use of ‘double alliteration’ might be added; cp. (§ 10) . In note 7 on the same page μηλβοτος (§ 145). which is also Isocratean, might have been quoted as the best example of a word borrowed from the poets.

² A particularly glaring instance is to be found in § 9. where Blass alters into περιειληφε (sic) , thus introducing a new hiatus in order to avoid one which even Isocrates allows.
