Three constructionshave been proposed: (I) "Wouldst thou while

thou, etc. ?" (2) "Wouldst thou in order that thou, etc.?" (3) "Dost
thou wish that thou . . . . but that I ? etc." The third is rejected by Leaf
on the ground that v. 690, iv. 465, and vi. 361 are not true parallels, and
that the single passage, xvi. 653, is not sufficientto justify the construction.
Other editors are divided. Pratt, La Roche, Diintzer and Bekker favor
(3); Paley and Ameis, (2); Pierron, (i). Bekker, Homerische Blidtter
I, p. 271, cites examples of •ic0ctXv65pa from Nonnos which Ameis thinks not
parallel. But do not all the analogies of Greek idiom favor (3) ? Cf.

Se of the later writer are represented only by the emphasis of aro's, and
by avrTp; the subjunctive constructionis not maintained in the second
clause, and the anacolouthic KXEaL. .... .droSo6vav is added in the inco-
herence of anger. But the essential likeness remains.
