ἀποκρυφος [page 65] ἀποκρυφος is a favourite word with Vettius Valens. It denotes p. 2 16 the hidden organs of the body (τῶν ἐντὸς ἀ .). The influence of Gemini (p. 7 30 ) produces κριτικοὶ κακῶν καὶ ἀγαθῶν , φρόνιμοι , περίεργοι , ἀποκρύφων μύσται , etc. In p. 108 8 περὶ δεσμῶν καὶ συνοχῶν καὶ ἀποκρύφων πραγμάτων καὶ κατακρίσεως καὶ ἀτιμίας it suggests unknown disasters of the future. P. 176 6 περὶ θεμελίων ἢ κτημάτων (? κτισμάτων ed.) ἢ ἀποκρύφων ἢ περὶ νεκρικῶν , subjects on which signs are sought ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑπογείου . In p. 179 .24 (so 301 21 , 335 4 ) μυστικῶν ἢ ἀποκρύφων πραγμάτων suggests mysteries again. The adverb is joined with ἐφθονημένως p. 301 5 , of mystifying and grudging expositions.
