Apparatus criticus

  • Text after De Amico and Kaibel;
  • As Kaibel notes, De Amico places interpuncts between each word, but given the confusion around the numeral at the end of line 1, these seem unlikely to have been present on the original;
  • 1: Kaibel: Μαρτ[ύ]ριος; De Amico: ΕΙΚΟΣΙΑ.ΥΩ, reasonably interpreted by Kaibel as a misreading of ΔΥΩ
