τῇ στάσι: Stein translates ‘harassed by the attacks of his own party’, and cf. 61. 2; but ‘troubled by the party strife’ is simpler. The willingness of the Alcmaeonid family to marry with, and to restore, a tyrant is very inconsistent with their character as ‘tyranthaters’ in vi. 121, 123; cf. App. XVIII. 6.
