mvp-comment-1190-2 Fr. Ritter rejects the last three verses, as he rejects the choral clausulae of all the other six plays ( Philol. XVII. 422-436 ): cp. O. T. 1524 cr. n. Here, at least, there is not a shadow of ground for the suspicion. It did not require a Sophocles to write vv. 1777-1779 , but the burden of proof rests with those who deny that he wrote them.
