Out, Damned Spot, Out

Aristophanes, Frogs. Assemblywomen. Wealth. Edited and Translated by Jeffrey Henderson (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2002 = Loeb Classical Library, 180), pp. 140-141 (Frogs 849-850, footnote omitted):
ὦ Κρητικὰς μὲν συλλέγων μονῳδίας,
γάμους δ᾿ ἀνοσίους εἰσφέρων εἰς τὴν τέχνην—


You collector of Cretan arias, who brought unholy couplings into out art—
For out read our. The mistake persists in the Digital Loeb Classical Library.
