[1158] ἀμφίεπον: 'busied themselves about,' 'ministered unto them' (Way); de M. wrongly 'embrassèrent.' Ap., like Hom., uses this verb of a great variety of activities, e.g. 1. 562, 571: 2. 761; 4. 1145 (ἄμφεπεν). He also uses it in the post-Homeric sense of 'worshipping,' 'paying homage to,' 1. 1102. See on 3. 547.
