214 Ai/w=nej, "celestial spirits and angels."-Grabe, in a note on Bull's Defence of the Nicene Creed. [I wish a more definite reference had been furnished by the learned translator. Even Kaye's reference is not precise. Consulting Grabe's annotations in vain, I was then obliged to go through the foot-notes, where, at last (vol. v. part i. p. 246.), I found in comparative obscurity Grabe's language. It may be rendered: "These words I think should be thus construed-cujus gloria sunt soecult-whose glory are the heavenly spirits or angels. Concerning which signification of tw=n ai0w/nwn, note what I have said among divers annotations on Irenaeus, p. 32. ed. Benedict."]
215 [Elucidation III.] The translator has done what he could to render this hymn literally. He has been obliged, however, to addd somewhat to it in the way of expansion, for otherwise it would have been impossible to secure anything approaching the flow of English versification. The original is in many parts a mere string of epithets, which no ingenuity could render in rhymed verse without some additions.
