Note 6 — Chapter XCVIII
P. Le Page (Peter Le Page) Renouf translation
Fellow-citizens. The translation here is necessarily conjectural. But I understand by fellow-citizens (συμπολῖται) the dwellers of that city of which the deceased says, in chapter 17, “I arrive at 167my own city, .”[92] And this city is explained by the ancient scholion as being “the HorizonHorizon [or, as Lepsius more accurately translates it, ‘der Sonnenberg’] of my father Tmu.” It is no earthly city that is thought of, but an eternal one.
