On the Attic Agathodaemon, or Bacchus, see the same learned writer, III. 216, 17, 18. 222. 389. 398. On the Cup, see Creuzer, I. 306 (note), 357. 378. 524. 671. 727.

"It is remarkable, that whereas the Greeks and Latins by mixed wine always understood wine diluted and lowered with water; the Hebrews on the contrary generally mean by it wine made stronger and more inebriating, by the addition of higher ingredients; such as honey, spices, defrutum, (or wine inspissated by boiling it down to two-thirds, or one half, of the quantity, ) myrrh, mandragora, opiates, and other strong drugs..." Hence the drunkard is properly described (Prov. xxiii. 30.) as one " that seeketh mixed wine;" and is mighty to mingle strong drink. Hence also that highly poetical and sublime image of the cup of God's wrath, called by Isaiah (li. 17.) "the cup of trembling;" and hence that seeming contradiction in St. John (Rev. xiv. 10.), KtKpao-pivov aKparov, pure wine made yet stronger by a mixture of powerful ingredients. See Lowth's Notes on Isaiah, chap. 1. 540. For this beautiful arrangement of the Chorus (dimeter choriambics), so widely different from that of Brnnck, the reader is indebted to the metrical skill and taste of Porson.
