ἐμὸν μὲν οὖν ἔργον καὶ τῶν ἄλλων φίλων, ‘it is my duty and that of your other friends.’ ἐμόν being a possessive pronoun can be coupled with a genitive; it can also have a genitive depending on it; cp. N. C. 49 τοὺς ὑμετέρους αὐτῶν, and 55 τὴν ὑμετέραν αὐτῶν ἀρετήν.

τοιαῦτα . . . ἐξ ὧν: for the relative introducing a consecutive clause cp. § 35 οὕτω ῥᾴθυμος, ὅστις.

τὸν λοιπὸν χρόνον: see note on § 27 τὸν ἄλλον χρόνον.

ὡς, ‘for,’ used here as a connecting particle; cp. the use of ὥστε, ‘therefore,’ ad N. 11, 46.
