εἰ ὑπολάβοι τοὐναντίον: except in case one should assume, on the contrary, that, etc.
19 f. ὃς ἂν κτἑ.: follows a pl. on account of its generic signification, and governs τῶν φίλων as a part. gen. Examples in Kr. 58, 4, 5.
μύσαντα: to go into danger blindly, i.e. with closed eyes,—to be blind to the existence of danger, as such, was apparently thought to be a mark of great courage and determi nation; hence μύσαντα is paired here with ἀνδρείως. Why one should act so, is explained by τὸ . . . διώκοντα. One of the functions of the participle is to express manner; hence it is quite natural to find it side by side with an adverb.
