Translation

[Meaning he/she/it] might shift. Aristophanes [writes]: "how well the space between the rows of vines might [do to] escape them."¹
Also [sc. attested is the related participle] a)pallacei/ontes, [meaning those] having a desire to be released.²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀπαλλάξειεν· μετακινήσειεν. Ἀριστοφάνης· πῶς καλῶς αὐτῶν ἀπαλλάξειεν ἂν μετόρχιον. καὶ Ἀπαλλαξείοντες, ἐπιθυμίαν ἔχοντες ἀπαλλαγῆναι.
