τὴν . . διακομιδήν—example of the liking Thuc. shows for a subst. derived from a verb. Κυλλήνης—c. 69. For ἐφ᾽ ὅρμῳ οὖσαι we say ‘which had lain at anchor’ (at Cyllene), οὖσαι being imperf. partic. (MT. § 140). The MSS. have ἔφορμοι for ἐφ: ὅρμῳ, but there seems to be no authority for ἔφορμος as adj. ἐπέπλει—ἐπιπλεῖν is used of the commanders: ἐμπλεῖν below of the crcw.
