[207] εἴκελον is probably best taken adverbially, as “ἶσον” inf. 557; 14. 203; though Nitzsch speaks of it as ‘almost substantival.’ If it be not taken adverbially, it might better be referred to the usage which sometimes introduces a neuter adjective, in loose apposition to a preceding noun in a different gender. See note on Od. 12.75.
