[275] Most editors put a colon or full stop at τέτυκτο, which gives rather an abrupt effect to the next sentence. On the other hand the asyndeton after “ἐρίσωσιν” (l. 277) is regular, since “αὐτοὶ τοί γ᾽ ἀπάγουσι κτλ.” is a restatement, in an affirmative form, of “μνηστήρων οὐχ ἥδε δίκη κτλ.” Other examples of this epexegetic asyndeton are 14. 216-219., 15. 318., 16. 466.
