μυριοφόρονof 10,000 talents' burden, assuming with Arnold that a talent was the ordinary unit of weight: but the matter is not certain. Lobeck conj. μυριαμφόρον, but the form is well attested.

ὤνευονdrew up with windlasses (ὄνοι).

ὁλκάδος—i.e. the ναῦς μυριοφόρος. Notice again the attraction of ἐκ.
