II

Families.

These

seventy-six

MSS.

fall

into the

following

seventeen families.

The

classification

as arrived

t,

as in

the

case of the

Iliad,

by

a

process

of

noting

all

cases

of variants

presented

by

ten

or

less

than

ten

MSS.,

and

casting

them

up.

The

MSS.

which

agree

most

often

in

presenting

such variantshave a claim to the titleof family. I may say that such an

arithmetical

ystem

s in

my

udgment

the

only

one

by

which

families

of

MSS.

can

be

made out.

The

possession

in

common

of a

striking

ariant

here and

a

striking

variant

there is

found

to be

casual. The

reader will

hardly

wish

to have

these

calculations

displayed

in

full on

the

other

hand

he

may

demand

specimens.

The

relationships

generally
