Numerous quotations and fragments still exist, chiefly in the Homeric scholiasts and Stephanus of Byzantium.

The Greek poets, Homer not excepted, are by their scholiasts regarded as treating of their gods in a mystical style.

On this a scholiast says that the name “Homeridae” denoted originally descendants of Homer, who sang his poems in succession, but afterwards was applied to rhapsodists who did not claim descent from him.

Nothing can express this superstitious rite more forcibly than the following letter from Aspasia to Pericles, recorded by one of the scholiasts of Ælian.

Thus it seemed to the sophists, to the scholiasts, alchemists, cabalists, Talmudists, and to our own scientific science and to our artistic art.
