Dear Sir,

Thankyou for your reply on my query about translations. You are quite right
about the line numbers being cited- something I don't have access to in the
texts I am using. My query was answered however, and I was correctly advised of
a citation error. Again, thank you for the good advice-

All the best,

Walter R. Mattfeld
