      player on the cithara, who taught Socrates music. (Plat. <hi rend="ital">Euthyd.</hi> pp. 272,
      c., 295, d., <hi rend="ital">Menex.</hi> p. 235e.; <bibl n="Cic. Fam. 9.22">Cic. Fam.
       9.22</bibl>.) This Connus is probably the same as the flute-player Connas, mentioned by
      Aristophanes (<bibl n="Aristoph. Kn. 532">Aristoph. Kn. 532</bibl>), who was, as we learn from
      the Scholiast, very poor, although he had gained several victories in the Olympic games.
      Whether the proverb mentioned by Suidas, <foreign xml:lang="grc">Κόννον ψῆφον</foreign>,
      " good for nothing," refers to the same person, is doubtful.</p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
