Adler number: epsilon,2543
Translated headword: smiting
Vetting Status: high

[Meaning he] preventing.[1] "He[A] disdained [or: was ashamed at] the [deed done] unbidden by him[,B] at the mere [or: single] threat, and the wish that the action [be done] by himself, that man[A?] smiting [...]."[2]
Greek Original:

Notes:
[1] The headword is present participle, masculine nominative singular, of the verb e)pirrapi/zw; presumably extracted from the quotation given.
[2] Aelian fr. 259 Domingo-Forasté (261 Hercher). At least two individuals, here A and B, are involved, but the phraseology is obscure nonetheless, and the nominative clause with the actual headword participle in it comes in clumsily at the end.
