.5% (127/28524). Start of The Acharnians.

.1% (45/28524). The Acharnians- using anonymous translation for 1912 Athenian Society of London. Introduction.

I now have the preferable Delphi edition, considered “equivalent in content” by Goodreads, and may restart reading.

finis, on to Plutus (p.401.)

pagination. (Not the same # as on Amazon, but ok :) ) Also, comment: publication date given on the page here as something BCE (-. That's authorship date, not publication date. Erm, people know the difference right? Yes? There does seem to be evidence of publication in 1540, though. "Parisiis : Apud C. Wechelum, 1540." of "Aristophanus: kōmōdiai hendeka...".

The Eccclesiazusæ appears as the 4th play in this edition rather than as the 10th of 11. So, reading it then skipping to Plutus. Though at a not-much-later date I'll re-read all of them if only because the translation here seems much different (hopefully better, rather than worse; the translation in the "Gutenberg"-d version kept the raunchy qualities of the original Greek as the Penguin Classics paperback didn't.
