[147] This line, as Heyne remarked, is almost undoubtedly spurious, interpolated from 327, with the intention of supplying an infin. to ἐπέοικε, which does not need one. The question of fighting or flying is not one which has to be discussed at all now; it has already been settled in the Agora at the beginning, and the council at the end, of the preceding book. It will be seen that one MS., R, omits the line.
