Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἠφείθη· ἐάθη, συνεχωρήθη.

Betacode

*)hfei/qh: e)a/qh, sunexwrh/qh.

Notes

Same or similar entry in other lexica. The headword is aorist passive, third person singular, of a)fi/hmi, with augmented preverb. It must be quoted from somewhere; Theodoridis on Photius notes the instance in Plutarch, Sulla 28.5 (on Sulla's release of the captured consul L. Cornelius Scipio Asiaticus).
cf. eta 665.
