The sense is not 'three or four years ago,' but 'in the third

'Third or fourth year' is not intended to be a vague date; on the
contrary it is particularly precise. The present speech must have
been delivered efore Nov. 849 (01. 107, 4). At that time less than
three years had elapsed since the capture of 'Hpaiov "7x0; in Nov.
352 (01. 107, 1); hence the phrase 'rpC-rov 'e? 'rog Too-rt. Again,
since that event, the fourth of the four civil years, 01. 107, 1,
2, 3, 4, had begun, i. e. the year designated by the fourth of the
four archons, Aristodemus, Theellus, Apollodorus, and Callimaehus;
hence the addition of the words i lre'-'r-z:|. 1. vri;w (Westermann and
Weil). Similarly, in Oct. 1896 we might say of an event of Nov. 1893
that it was now 'the third (civil) year' since it happened; at the same
time it would be equally true that four Academical years had begun,
and Oct. 1896 would be in 'the fourth (Academical) year' from the
event in question.

of Samos, the neighbouring 'Hpaiov apparently owed its name
to the Samians, whose tutelary deity was Hera.

"Hpaiov reixos is not quite the same as 'Hpa'iev, nor was the latter
place near to the Chersonese: nor would Philip be yet in a condition to
provoke or menace so powerful a city as Perinthus--though he did so ten
years afterwards (Diodor. xvi 74). I cannot think that we know where
