τριῶν...αὐτόν ‘Though we had three houses, they did not allow the funeral (ἐκφορά) to take place from any one of them, but hired a mean tenement, and there laid out the corpse’. κλί̂σιον, also written κλείσιον (from κλείω, not κλι?́νω?), is used by Antiphanes (Ἀκέστρια 2, Mein. Frag. Com. p. 348) of an outhouse or shed for cattle: τῆς οἰκίας τὸ κλί̂σιον τὸ καλούμενον, | ὃ πρότερον ἦν τοῖς ἐξ ἀγροῦ βουσὶ σταθμὸς | καὶ τοῖς ὄνοις, πεποίηκε — τί δ᾽ ; — ἐργαστήριον. — ὅτι ἕκαστος ἔτυχεν, sc. δούς.
