[68] εἵχετε, 'were ye dwelling in.' Aesch. Eumenid. 24 Βρόμιος δ᾽ ἔχει τὸν χῶρον. So teneo in Latin, Verg. Aen. vi. 788 “'omnes supera alta tenentes.'” “ 'For neither were ye playing on the steep,
Where your old bards, the famous Druids, lie;
Nor on the shaggy top of Mona high,
Nor yet where Deva spreads her wizard stream.'

”
