Hi, Wolfgang—

\footnote[particles]{A look at the particles in this sentence suggests that something has gone wrong. The initial «{δέ}» is mildly adversative, as is the «{δέ}» at the beginning of the sentence opening the second paragraph. This is in line with the careful disposition of the {\emph cola} in the whole introduction: independent, principal clauses are always introduced by conjunctive «{δέ}», and inside them the subclauses in contraposition are regularly marked by the canonical «{μέν \dots δέ}». Moreover, every «{μέν}» is answered by a «{δέ}». The only exception is the «{μέν}» in this sentence [lines 23–24]: a clause such as «{οἱ δὲ ἐπιμερεῖϲ οὔ}» (\quote{whereas epimeric do not}) is surely missing due to scribal mistake. I regard the correction as certain, given the strictly analogous structure of the immediately following sentence. Nothing in the interpretation that I shall develop depends on this textual detail, however.}

\footnotetext[03]{εἰκόϲ: notice the determination of likelihood in a place where in the first paragraph one finds two occurrences of a determination of necessity. I would link this feature to a perceptibly less firm status of the assumed correspondence between notes and numbers. Compare the more precise statement occurring on the second line of the first paragraph: «{τοὺϲ φθόγγουϲ ἀναγκαῖον ἐν ἀριθμοῦ λόγῳ λέγεϲθαι πρὸϲ ἀλλήλουϲ}».}

\footnotetext[04]{The {\emph variatio} «({ἐν}) {ἑνὶ ὀνόματι}» is very likely a scribal {\emph lapsus}, even if it is not clear whether the mistake is a haplography or a dittography.}

​Many thanks for any thoughts on this or advice.

Did you create a command with \definehighlight which is used in this part of the document?
