_White Livers_ (Vol. v., pp. 127. 212.).--Dissen interprets the
λευκαὶ φρένες of Pindar (Part IV. 194.), pale with envy, envious; alii
aliter. Whatever be the exact meaning of this debated phrase, the idea
at the ground of it appears the same as that in the modern "white
liver." According to Homer, it will be remembered, φρένες ἦπαρ
ἔχουσιν. (_Od._ ix. 301.)
