Translation: Aristophanes [writes]: "give me packing, so that I may wrap up and carry [him]." That is twig[s], cord, a binding of squalid straw.[1]
Also [sc. attested is the dative case]
forutw=| ["on litter"], [meaning] on twiggy filth,[2] squalid, straw-y.
"Having raised all together both litter and dungy offscourings."[3] [Spelled] with an omicron. Or a woven rush-mat, onto which they throw the corn-ears; or the bedspread [made] out of twigs.[4]
Aristophanes [writes]: "give me packing, so that I may wrap up and carry [him] just like a pot, so that he is not broken while being carried." For well-bound pots are hard to break.[5]
