κακοῖς βαλεῖτε: cp. 724 “ὀνείδεσιν ι ἤρασσον” (n.): Tr. 940“ὥς νιν ματαίως αἰτίᾳ βάλοι κακῇ.” σὺν δόλῳ: cp. El. 641“σὺν φθόνῳ”: Ph. 842“σὺν ψεύδεσιν. ” κεντήσεθ̓. In Ant. 1030, too, “κέντει” is figurative,—meaning to inflict a base wrong (on the dead). οἱ λελειμμένοι, ye who have been left behind in the race. Cp. Tr. 266“τῶν ὧν τέκνων λείποιτο πρὸς τόξου κρίσιν”: Aesch. Pers. 339“τῇδε λειφθῆναι μάχῃ”. Polyb. 1. 62 § 6 “βλέπειν τόν τε τοῦ νικᾶν ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ τὸν τοῦ λείπεσθαι καιρόν”.
