Translation

[Meaning he/she/it] threw out of the sea onto the land.¹ "The sea churned up by Orion [Author, Myth] tossed ashore a many-footed skolopendra onto the rocks of the Iapyges."²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἔβρασεν· ἐκ τῆς θαλάσσης εἰς τὴν γῆν ἔρριψε. μυριόπουν σκολόπενδραν ὑπ' Ὠρίωνι κυκηθεὶς πόντος Ἰαπύγων ἔβρασ' ἐπὶ σκοπέλους.

Notes (1)

[1] Likewise in ps.-Zonaras. The headword is aorist indicative active, third person singular, of the verb bra/ssw (cf. beta 518), presumably extracted from the quotation given.
2Greek Anthology 6.222.1-2 (Theodoridas); cf. kappa 2635. For Iapygia, see iota 43; for skolopendra, sigma 646.
