6. Thoogn. Cr. Il 26, Bekk. An. 1425: τὸ ῡ καθαρὸν ἐν ἀρχ λέξεω παρὰ πᾶϲι τοῖϲ Ἕλληϲι πρὸ τοῦ χ εἶναι ἀπείρηται καὶ τὸ αἴτιον ὀχυρόν· πᾶν γὰρ φωνῆεν πρὸ τοῦ χ ψιλοῦται καὶ τὸ ῡ ἐν ἀρχῇ λέξεωϲ δαϲύνεται. δύο οὖν κανόνων ἀλλήλοιϲ ἀνθιϲταμένων ἐξέφυγεν τὸ ῡ πρὸ τοῦ χ εὑρίϲκεϲθαι· καθαρὸν δὲ εἶπον, ἐπεὶ τὸ ὔρχα οὐ καθαρὸν ἔχον τὸ ῡ πρὸ τοῦ χ εὕρηται. οὕτωϲ Ἡρωδιανὸϲ ἐν τῇ τάξει τῶν κδ ϲτοιχείων.
