(involving only one premise) in Sext. P.H. I. 152, 159, II. 167. Si dicis te mentiri, etc.:  it is absurd to assume, as this sophism does, that when a man truly states that he has told a lie, he establishes against himself not merely that he has told a lie, but also that he is telling a lie at the moment when he makes the true statement.  The root of the sophism lies in the confusion of past and present time in the one infinitive mentiri. Eiusdem generis:  the phrase te mentiri had been substituted for nunc lucere. Chrysippea:  n. on 93. Conclusioni:  on facere with the dat. see n. on 27. Cederet:  some edd. crederet, but the word is a trans. of Gk. [Greek:  eikein]; n. on 66. Conexi:  = [Greek:  synemmenon], cf.  Zeller 109.  This was the proper term for the hypothetical judgment. Superius:  the [Greek:  synemmenon] consists of two parts, the hypothetical part and the affirmative—­called in Greek [Greek:  hegoumenon] and [Greek:  legon]; if one is admitted the other follows of course.

Sec.97. Excipiantur:  the legal formula of the Romans generally directed the iudex to condemn the defendant if certain facts were proved, unless certain other facts were proved; the latter portion went by the name of exceptio.  See Dict.  Ant. Tribunum ... adeant:  a retort upon Lucullus; cf. 13.  The MSS. have videant or adeant; Halm conj. adhibeant, comparing 86 and Pro Rabirio 20. Contemnit:  the usual trans. “to despise” for contemnere is too strong; it means, like [Greek:  oligorein], merely to neglect or pass by. Effabimur; cf. effatum above. Hermarchus:  not Hermachus, as most edd.; see M.D.F. II. 96. Diiunctum:  [Greek:  diezeugmenon], for which see Zeller 112. Necessarium:  the reason why Epicurus refused to admit this is given in De Fato 21 Epicurus veretur ne si hoc concesserit, concedendum sit fato fieri quaecumque fiant.  The context of that passage should be carefully read, along with N.D. I. 69, 70.  Aug. Contra Ac. III. 29 lays great stress on the necessary truth of disjunctive propositions. Catus:  so Lamb. for MSS. cautus. Tardum:  De Div. II. 103 Epicurum quem hebetem et rudem dicere solent Stoici; cf. also ib. II. 116, and the frequent use of [Greek:  bradys] in Sext., e.g. A.M. VII. 325. Cum hoc igitur:  the word igitur, as usual, picks up the broken thread of the sentence. Id est:  n. on I. 8. Evertit:  for the Epicurean view of Dialectic see R. and P. 343.  Zeller 399 sq., M.D.F. I. 22. E contrariis diiunctio:  = [Greek:  diezeugmenon ex enantion].
