Notes:
[1] The point (hard to convey in English translation) is that the active voice of the verb
u(poble/pein is preferable to the middle. The quotation itself, also in
Eudemus, is unidentifiable.
[2] Quotation (with another idiom: the participle
a)griai/nontes) unidentifiable.
[3] Quotation unidentifiable.
[4] Quotation unidentifiable. (At
delta 1012, where it reappears, Adler suggests
Aelian.)
