page 84 note 4 Cf. Reinhardt, , Sophokles, p. 192Google Scholar: ‘… das leise, sogenannte “Schlaflied”, das in Wahrheit aber, trotz der sanften Anrufe des Hypnos, alles andere als ein Schlaflied ist, vielmehr ein Lied der leisen, aber umso stärkeren Verführung zum Verrat.’
page 84 note 5 In Il. xiv. 231 Hypnos has his common appellation ‘brother of Thanatos’. Are there echoes of this too in and near the lyric? 797–8 have been mentioned; in 819–22 Philoctetes begs the earth to receive him in death, but Neoptolemus observes that it is sleep which is coming upon him. In 861, in the epode of the lyric, the Chorus describes Philoctetes in the words τις ὡς Ἀΐδᾳ π⋯ρα κε⋯μενος.
