Notes on the current edition

History of the Peloponnesian War

1. There is a confusion in the expression, and the words εἰ σωφρονοῦσι have really nothing to do with the sentence as it is actually expressed, which is suggested as it were parenthetically to the writer's mind, but which he did not set down in words: if written at length it would run thus;
The benefit of the treaty was intended for such only as should not involve those who received them in war, (as, if you are wise, you will take care that these men do not involve you.
)— Arnold.
