Notes (2)

  1. For the verb paralla/ssw cf. pi 380.
  2. 1The quotation, unidentifiable as it stands, is surely a paraphrase of Xenophon, Hellenica 5.1.12: e)pei\ de\ parh/llacan oi( prw=toi th\n e)ne/dran, e)cani/stantai oi( peri\ to\n *xabri/an kai\ eu)qu\s h)ko/ntizon kai\ e)/ballon ("But when the first [of Gorgopas' troops] had passed by the ambush, Chabrias' men broke cover and immediately began hurling javelins and throwing [stones]"). ↩
  3. 2This appears to be glossing e)pefa/nhsan, not the headword itself. ↩
