[1693] παμπρώτιστα: this superl. is only found here, though πάμπρωτον is common.
βάλοιεν ὑπέρ: ὑπερβάλλειν, meaning 'to double a cape,' elsewhere takes the acc. (e. g. Hdt. 7. 168); ὑπέρ may be used as in Od. 14. 300, ἡ δ᾽ ἔθεεν … Μέσσον ὑπὲρ Κρήτης, where it seems to mean 'out from,' 'keeping clear of' (v. Monro). Σαλμωϝίδος ἄκρης: the eastern point of Crete, mentioned in St. Paul's voyage, Acts 27. 7, ὑπεπλεύσαμεν τὴν Κρήτην κατὰ Σαλμώνην.This text is part of:
