      A simpler and more direct proof of Csirmaz's model-theoretic characterization of Floyd-Hoare logic for nondeterministic programs is presented. As a spin-off, a straightforward proof of Leivant's characterization of this logic in terms of second-order logic is also given. Finally, a direct connection between Czirmaz's ``relational traces'' and ``time-models'' for nondeterministic programs is established.
