[453] From Apoll. R. 4. 1479, “τὼς ἰδέειν, ὡς τίς τε νέῳ ἐνὶ ἤματι μήνην Ἢ ἴδεν, ἢ ἐδόκησεν ἐπαχλύουσαν ἰδέσθαι”, where it is Lynceus that sees Heracles. Ἐπαχλύουσαν may be said slightly to confirm the reference of ‘obscuram’ to Dido. Jahn in his 2nd ed., reading ‘umbram,’ connects ‘qualem’ with it. ‘Primo mense,’ ἱσταμένου μηνός. Comp. “primi solis” v. 255 above.
