Translation

And [doubly compound] e)panaqei=nai [means] the same thing. Araros in Bridal Song [writes]: "and so that if the moment is pending for the bride to agree to dedicate [herself] to the yoke."¹
The [word] a)rarw=s [is] an adverb meaning fittingly, whereas [the aorist participle] a)rarw/s [means] he having fitted.²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀναθεῖναι· καὶ ἐπαναθεῖναι τὸ αὐτό. Ἀραρὼς Ὑμεναίῳ· ὅπως τε τὴν νύμφην ἐὰν καιρὸς ᾖ μετέωρον ἐπὶ τὸ ζεῦγος ἀναθήσει συμφέρειν. ὅτι τὸ ἀραρῶς ἐπίρρημα ἀντὶ τοῦ πρεπόντως, ἀραρὼς δὲ ἁρμόσας.

Notes (1)

[1] Araros [alpha 3737] fr. 17 Kock (and K.-A.); cf., more briefly, Photius, Lexicon alpha1475.
2This addendum is prompted simply by the occurrence of the proper name Araros (above).
