Translation

With a circumflex accent, from the [verb] e)la/w, e)lw=.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Εἰσελάσαι· περισπωμένως, ἀπὸ τοῦ ἐλάω, ἐλῶ.

Betacode
*ei)sela/sai: perispwme/nws, a)po\ tou= e)la/w, e)lw=. 

Notes

  1. Actually the alpha (the third syllable) is short, so this aorist infinitive cannot have a circumflex accent (but the poetic first person singular present e)lw= does). See LSJ s.v. e)lau/nw.
    cf. epsilon 744.
