[1] As Adler notes, 'Matthiae' [= the Euripides editor August Matthiae, 1769-1835] proposed emending 'Andromache' to Andromeda (see next note), presumably on the basis that these words do not occur in Euripides' surviving Andromache. But K.J. Dover in his Frogs edition cites line 237 of that play: o( nou=s o( so/s moi mh\ cunoikoi/h "May your way of thought never come to dwell with me, woman!" (Kovacs' translation).
[2] Euripides fr. 144 (Andromeda).
