 3       I|         stands alone in selecting Apollonius, as he has recently done,
 4      II|         of Nero, there flourished Apollonius of Tyana, who from mere

 9      IV|          scrutiny of it show that Apollonius was not fit to be classed,
10      IV|           accuracy in the case of Apollonius. For when we have thoroughly
11     VII|            do you envisage for us Apollonius, my good compiler ? If as
12    VIII|        same history he represents Apollonius as using, in token of his

14      IX|         him his education, while. Apollonius clung to his teacher." We

16      XI|          nonsense to pretend that Apollonius can have derived from this
17     XII|        the author telling us that Apollonius was of an ancient family
18     XII|        needs commend the youthful Apollonius for his good sense. On another
19    XIII|         if it were a miracle, how Apollonius and his companions saw some
20     XIV|         For we are told that when Apollonius was among the Indians, he
21     XIV|        interpreter, and addresses Apollonius in Greek ; and speaking
22     XIV|           wealth of learning. But Apollonius none the less neglected
23      XV|       still unable to explain it, Apollonius says: " Tell me, O king,
24    XVII|   introduces us to a lady who met Apollonius, and who, from her head
25   XVIII|        Iarchas, the moment he saw Apollonius, addressed him by name in
26   XVIII|          running off the names of Apollonius' father and mother, and
27   XVIII|          themselves together with Apollonius with an amber-like drug,
28      XX|           this we learn, and that Apollonius once more, by means of an

30     XXI|           and that exploit; while Apollonius told them that he had once
31     XXI|           all. Thus we learn that Apollonius asked if they had any golden
32     XXI|          were the questions which Apollonius put to the sages, and Iarchas
33    XXII|       Damis related how carefully Apollonius excluded himself from being
34    XXII|        larchas ; and he says that Apollonius was given by the latter
35    XXII|          he was anxious to acquit Apollonius of the charge of having
36   XXIII|           counts retained against Apollonius, probably because it was
37   XXIII|       dressed in rags ; who, when Apollonius ordered the mob to stone
38   XXIII|       dogs do. And he writes that Apollonius mentioned this episode also
39    XXIV|          against him, and bidding Apollonius ask him questions on five
40    XXIV|   addressing heroes." This is how Apollonius now brags to his companion,
41     XXV|       follower of the philosopher Apollonius ? For Achilles insists that
42     XXV|      exception is that he ordered Apollonius to restore the tomb of Palamedes,
43    XXVI|      writer's easy credulity. For Apollonius, as they say, drives out
44    XXVI|          to have launched against Apollonius the accusation of being
45    XXVI|           special achievements of Apollonius, although there are a myriad
46   XXVII|           as some people do, that Apollonius was a wizard, is clear from
47   XXVII|   incantations or anointings. But Apollonius himself submitted to the
48   XXVII|       moral. If therefore we find Apollonius calling these Indians gods,
49  XXVIII|          he relates at length how Apollonius delivered himself with great

51  XXVIII|        and a maker of kings ? For Apollonius himself has informed us

53    XXIX|         in thus arguing to accuse Apollonius of having falsely blamed
