[He/she/it] sends ahead.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Πρόεισι· προπέμπει.

Betacode

*pro/eisi: prope/mpei.

Notes

A compound of ei)=mi "go" -- presumably quoted from somewhere -- seems to be confused with a compound of i(/hmi "throw, send." Students of ancient Greek will sympathize.
cf. pi 2398, pi 2421, pi 2422, pi 2429.
