Translation

[Meaning someone] being badly off. "Being in distress already in the situation, Hannibal [...] was sending word to Carthage [...] clarifying this position [...]."¹

Greek original · Adler’s text

Δυσχρηστούμενος· κακῶς διατιθέμενος. ὁ δὲ Ἀννίβας δυσχρηστούμενος ἤδη τοῖς πράγμασι διεπέμπετο ἐς Καρχηδόνα, ταύτην τὴν περίστασιν διασαφῶν.
