[191] Fick remarks that for σκ́ηλεἰ we should read “σκείλεἰ”, the regular form from “σκέλλω”, as there is no trace of a pres. “σκάλλω”. The mistake may have arisen from misunderstanding a primitive “ΣΚΕΛΕΙ”. ἀμφὶ περί, adverbial, ἴνεσιν being a loc. dative to be taken with “χρόα”, the flesh upon the sinews.
