Μουν. ἐν τῷ θεάτρῳ Thuc. VIII. 93, ἐς τὸ πρὸς τῇ Μουνυχίᾳ Διονυσιακὸν θέατρον ἐλθόντες καὶ θέμενοι τὰ ὅπλα ἐξεκλησίασαν (411 B.C.). The theatre was at the N.W. side of the Munychian hill. — ἐγίγνετο, ‘came to be held’.

οὕτω σφόδρα ‘Some persons were so anxious that the information regarding the Generals and the Infantry Commanders should be laid before the people as well, (in regard to the others, the information laid before the Council sufficed,) that they bring Agoratus before the people in the Ecclesia also’ (καὶ ἐκεῖ). καὶ ἐκεῖ...εἰς τὸν δ., i.e. ‘there also’, and this time before the people. — ἀπέχρη, κ.τ.λ. Dobree is right in condemning μήνυσις as a scholion, but ἐν τῇ βουλῇ is prob. genuine: it makes the contrast with ἐν τῷ δ. clearer. Cp. § 33.
