Greek original · Adler’s text
Νηποινί· ἄνευ τιμωρίας καὶ ποινῆς. αἰτιώτατος γεγονὼς τῆς στάσεως οὐ φεύξεται νηποινὶ τὸ ἐπίκλημα. καὶ αὖθις· οὐ γὰρ νηποινί γε πείσεσθαι, ἃ πρὸς αὐτῶν ἐπεπόνθει.

Notes (3)
- 1The headword adverb -- which can also be spelled
nhpoinei/ -- has the same or similar glossing in other lexica (references at Photius nu193 Theodoridis) and in a scholion on Plato, Laws 9.874C (where it occurs). ↩ - 2Quotation unidentifiable. (Adler suggests Aelian.) ↩
- 3Quotation (a clause in indirect speech, in which something like 'it was expected' is to be understood; lacking in ms F) again unidentifiable. (Adler again suggests Aelian.) ↩
