μινύρεται θαμίζουσα inverts the usual constr.; cp.

δ᾽ ἄρ᾽ ἀσπασίως ἴδε θυμῷ
θερμὰ λοέτῤ, ἐπεὶ οὔτι κομιζόμενός γε θάμιζεν

, "since he was not often so cared for"; Plat. Rep. 328C Σώκρατες, οὐδὲ θαμίζεις ἡμῖν καταβαίνων εἰς τὸν Πειραιᾶ”. Here, however, “θαμίζουσα” may be taken separately, “"frequenting"” (the place): Il. 18.386πάρος γε μὲν οὔτι θαμίζεις”, “"hitherto thou comest not oft."” The midd. in fr. 460 “τῷδε” (v.l.τῇδε”) “θαμίζεται”, (the fish) haunts those waters.
