'Diod.' Siculus : 

From George Grote's Journal, 9 December 1822: 'Rose at 6. Employed all my reading-time this day upon Diodor., and got through 80 pages, taking notes. He seems a more sensible writer than I had expected. A few articles in the "Dictionn. Philos." filled up odd moments. The article on Miracles is admirable.'
