αὑτοῦ ῾ποσσεσσιϝἐ γένηται, become its own master, regain its control over passion: cp. Dem. or, 4 § 7 “ἣν ὑμῶν αὐτῶν ἐθελήσητε γενέσθαι”: Plat. Phaedr. 250 A “ἐκπλήττονται καὶ οὐκέθ᾽ αὑτῶν γίγνονται”. So Her. 1.119 “οὔτε ἐξεπλάγη ἐντός τε ἑωυτοῦ γίνεται”, “"was not dismayed, but mastered his feelings"”: Dem. or. 34 § 35 “οὐκ ἐντὸς ὢν αὑτοῦ”: or. 19 § 198 “ἔξω δ᾽ αὑτῆς οὖσα ὑπὸ τοῦ κακοῦ”. Elmsley strangely preferred αὐτοῦ, taking it as adv., “"there."” φροῦδα, there is an end of them: Eur. Tro. 1071 (to Zeus) “φροῦδαί σοι θυσίαι”.
