Daly THE EARLIEST MA1~USCRIPTS in which Hesiod's Theogony is preserved are of the thirteenth century.1 It therefore struck me as of some possible interest that Theogony 907-11, as well as the first two lines of Works and Days, are quoted in Greek in the first edition (Milan 1476) and in subsequent editions (e.g. Venice 1496) of the Elementarium Doctrinae Erudimentum of Papias, a work which was completed in or shortly after the year 1053. The ghost of Greek manuscripts in twelfth century Lombardy and of a Papias who could read Greek poetry is laid to rest.	cache/grbs-10761.pdf	txt/grbs-10761.txt
