Νίν· αὐτάς. Εὐμενίδας ὅ γ' ἐνθάδ' ὢν εἴποι λεώς νιν. Σοφοκλῆς· σύ τοι λέγεις νιν, οὐκ ἐγώ· σὺ γὰρ ποιεῖς τοὖργον, τὰ δ' ἔργα τοὺς λόγους εὑρίσκεται. καὶ σύ μ' ἐξ ὁδοῦ πόδα κρύψον κατ' ἄλσος, τῶνδ' ἕως ἂν ἐκμάθω τίνας λόγους ἐροῦσι.

Notes (4)
- 1The headword is a Doric enclitic pronoun, used also in lyrics of Attic tragedy, usually for masculine or feminine accusative singular, but also sometimes for neuter singular or plural and for masculine or feminine accusative plural. It is glossed here with a feminine accusative plural, from the scholia on the first passage quoted. ↩
- 2Sophocles, Oedipus at Colonus 42-43 (web address 1), with scholion. On the Eumenides, see generally epsilon 3580, epsilon 3581. ↩
