[Meaning he/she/it] goes out, comes out.[1] Aristophanes [writes]: "after running into the prytaneum with an empty belly he runs out with a full [one]." That is, he comes out of the city having become rich by entering politics. He uses an emphatic expression, in order to show that [Kleon] leapt shamelessly into politics.[2]
