EσTì TÊs nμéтepas dvváμews, in Demosth. Lept., line 10, and in many other passages. And observe that, in 1044, Touσde certainly does refer to the Heracleidae.

1043. dɩπλoûν Képdos. It was scarcely a double gain; but, as the next line shews, he regards one event from two points of view. The benefit to the Athenians would arise from the injury to the Peloponnesians, the descendants of the Heracleidae: the two facts are just the opposite sides of the same shield.

1045, 6. With el, supply éσrì:="since."-For кaтeрy., “achieve,” cf. Hdt. III. 65, k. tǹv ǹyeμovínv.-For éž, cf. Soph, Phil. 260, ŵ naî πατρὸς ἐξ ̓Αχιλλέως.

1050. See N.-This proposal to throw Eur. to the dogs is not consistent with Alcmena's promise in 1023, 4. Possibly, (1) in her rage, she forgot that promise; or (2) she wished to frighten Eurystheus; or (3, and so Pfl.) thinking the burying was no business of hers, she would leave his body to the dogs unless it was claimed by the Athenians, or (4) Tupi should be read for kvơi, or (5, and most probable of all conjectures) Euripides himself forgot his former line.

1051. For un èλπíoŋs öπws with the future indicative, see note on 248, also 161.

1054, 5. τὰ ἐξ ἡμῶν is either nominative to ἔσται, or, accusative of respect,=“quod ad nos attinet." At any rate the meaning is "the conduct proceeding from us."-For кalapŵs, adverb for adjective, cf. kaλws in 369.—The chorus would say: "we will not cause any bloodguiltiness to Demophon: we will have nothing to do with this butchery."
