Translation

"[...] not to go through every [kind of] scrutiny, but with both their purpose and their strength moderate in accordance with the past."1

Greek original · Adler’s text

Παρῆκον· μὴ διὰ πάσης ἰέναι ἐξετάσεως, ἀλλὰ μετρίας κατὰ τὸ παρῆκον τῆς αὐτῶν προαιρέσεώς τε καὶ δυνάμεως.

Notes (1)

  1. The neuter headword is presumably extracted from the quotation given. As transmitted, it is from parh/kw (cf. pi 619 for a different sense of it), but see next note.
  2. 1Quotation unidentifiable -- whether with parh=kon or Abresch's conjecture (noted by Adler) parei=kon ("in accordance with the permissible"). ↩
