[558] “Ἀρίσταρχος καὶ οἱ ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ δασύνουσι” (i.e. read “ἐσἥλατο” to shew that it was from “ἅλλομαι”), “Λυσανίας δὲ ψιλοῖ, προσνέμων τὸ ς τῶι η: σήλασθαι γάρ φησι σημαίνειν τὸ ἀποσπᾶν καὶ σαλεύειν, ὁ δὲ σαλεύσας πρῶτος τὸ τεῖχος Σαρπηδών ἐστιν, ὁ δὲ εἰσπηδήσας Ἕκτωρ” (Herodianos). It is needless to say that Ar. was right in rejecting this extraordinary expedient for reconciling the difference. He took the word to mean ‘leapt upon,’ without the idea of passing through. See Lehrs, Ar. p. 307.
