3. ὡς καί for καὶ ὡς, unless καί is due to dittography (ὡς and καί are sometimes confused in MSS.). The parallels quoted, like 2.44 ὅ τι ἄξιον καὶ εἰπεῖν, are not close. (Steup thinks that after καί a clause is lost in which one of the two topics summed up in ἀμφοτέρων was expressed.)
5. ἀμφοτέρων—strictly τὸ ἡμᾶς ἀδικεῖν and τὸ αὐτοὺς πολεμοῦσθαι are but one topic differently expressed, and the two aspects of the matter are not clearly distinguished in what follows.
6. οὕτω—like tum demum.
7. ἀξίωσιν—claim.
8. μὴ ἀλογίστως—together as one word.
10. τὸ δέ—but that. τό being demonstrative in sense.
