106.
15. προσβιασθέν—driven to it, viz. πρὸς τὸ ὑποχωρεῖν (to take οὐκ ὀλίγον as adverbial and qualifying προσβιασθέν with Steup is very forced). Others explain πρὸς τὸ ἐσπεσεῖν κτλ. which on account of διαμαρτὸν τῆς ὁδοῦ ἐσέπεσεν (=pass of ἐσβάλλω) is less likely.
16. ᾧ ἔτυχεν—sc. ὄν.
[2]
19. εἶργον—sc. αὐτούς. τοῖς ὁ. is dat. of means.
22. τὸ πλῆθος—the main body.
