The opening sentence of this passage appears in different forms in the Florentine and Roman branches of the Herodotean mss. The Roman branch have the text as it is printed here.

Burkert, Lore and Science in Ancient Pythagoreanism, Cambridge Mass. 1972: 127-8. For full bibliography, see Orph. 650 Bernabé. ὁμολογέει ὁμολογέει m, cf. Plut.
