Note

Includes index.
This is a ... poem, probably composed in the latter part of the fourth century ... However, it does not really deserve a place in a discussion of Orphic literature, since it says nothing about Orpheus and makes no pretence of being by him. His name had become attached to it by the time of Tzetzes ... -- The Orphic poems, by M.L. West.
