ἀπεργάσεται κτλ. Editors rightly abandon the present ἀπεργάζεται (see cr. n.) as indefensible. ζήσει is condemned by Cobet (V. L.^{2} p. 610) as an interpolation, but some verb is needed, and Cobet himself allows that “ζήσω apud Atticos semel et iterum comparet” (e.g. V 465 D, Ar. Plut. 263 and Fr. 498 Dindorf). ζώσει (see cr. n.) can hardly be maintained in Plato, though not, apparently, unknown in Ionic: see Kühner-Blass Gr. Gr. I 2, p. 436. The erroneous ζῴη is clearly due to a misunderstanding of οὐχ ὅπως (non modo non).
