[587] 587-89. ‘Hi tres versus emblemati aliunde illato perquam similes sunt; sunt nimis nudi et ieiuni post superiores tantopere ornatos,’ Heyne; a remark with which it is hard not to sympathize. The position of μέγαν is very unusual: “ὀΐων μέγαν”, Heyne. σταθμοί seems to be a general name like the modern ‘sheepstation,’ including both the κλισίαι, huts for the shepherds, and σηκοί, folds for the sheep. Note the unusual position of ἰδέ (see on 3.318).
