ἐν τῶν τειχῶν τῇ ἁλώσει — Classen notes that Herod. and Thuc are fond of inserting the gen. between a prep. and its case. χρήματα— bona, non pecuniae. Haacke. πολλὰ μὲν . . . πολλὰ δὲ—Thuc. does not use this anaphora so elaborately as most writers. The instances in him are simple, like εἰ μὲν . . . εἰ δέ, ἅμα μὲν . . . ἅμα δέ. For πολλαὶ μὲν . . . πολλαὶ δέ cf. VI. 20.4. Eur. Rh. 311 has a fourfold anaphora with πολύς. ἐμπόρων—some from Greece, some from Sicily. ἐγκατελήφθη—similar compounds in Thuc. are ἐγκαταλείπω, ἐγκαθέζομαι, ἐγκαθίστημι, ἐγκαθορμίζομαι, ἐγκατοικοδομεῖν, ἐγκατασκήπτειν.
