55 fw=tej.

56 fwto\j.

57 [A Montanist token.]

58 For a0blabe/j in the text, we must, translating thus, read a0blabh=. If we translate, as we may, "Gnostic virtue is a thing everywhere good, and meek," etc., no change is required in the reading.

69 kth/sewj, instead of kti/sewj, as in the text, and kth=sin for kti/sin in the next clause.

70 'Anastre/fei e0pi\ mo/nouj tou\j e0n sarki/. For which, as slightly preferable, Sylburg. proposes ;e!ti me/nontaj e0n sarki/, as above.

80 For e0a=n, which is the reading of the text, Sylburgius' suggestion of ei!a or ei!ase has been adopted.

81 See note 9, p. 3, supra.]

82 [No doubt he may have said this.]

83 Or rather, as Sylb. points out, this is a case of the past used for the present, etc.

84 parousi/an, kata/stasin, the reading of the text, is, as Sylburg. remarks, plainly corrupt; parau=san, as above, is the most obvious correction.
