His note is: ‘Εὐθυδημία scripsimus: εὐθύδη X, εὐθημία Γ, εὐθυμηδία ω, -μέδια ἄ.’ His text is based on X (Vaticanus 191, thirteenth century) which all editors seem agreed is the best MS; Γ (Vatic. Palat. 388, fifteenth century) is said to exhibit some curious and erratic readings; ω is Renou’s sign for the general body of MSS, and ἄ for the \*editio princeps\* of 1533 (Bâle) which Müller rated highly; it is based on Γ but has various divergences. The Latin versions all have -media. One MS of the group ω (Vat. Urbin. 82) is eleventh-century; -μηδία therefore is actually the oldest reading known, for what that may be worth. - [Previous: c25.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c25.2) - [Next: c25.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c25.4) - [Up: c25](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c25) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c25.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tarn-1938.c25.3) · Pramāṇa
