Note 378 — Chapter IV · PRE-CHRISTIAN GNOSTICS: THE ORPHICI
Reading edition
This is the “Theogony of the Rhapsodists,” which seems to have been the most popular of all the Orphic theogonies. The different texts in which it is preserved have been collected by Abel, Orphica, Lips. 1885, pp. 48-140. It is well summarized by Purser in Smith’s Dict. of Antiq. where before quoted. Cf. Daremberg and Saglio, s.v. Orpheus.
