1. οὐ μὰ Δἴ οὐκ: em- phatic repetition, not a double negative: δεῖ is understood here from § 306.2, and on it depend the infinitives θεραπεύειν etc. through ἄγειν (8).

2. ἀποστάντα: strongly opposed to θεραπεύειν (4) and ὑποστάντα (5).

4. τῶν τῆς πατρίδος (sc. καιρῶν), instead of the fuller form with ὑπέρ (as in 3).—τὸν ὑποστάντα, the man who has undertaken, object of βασκαίνειν.

8. ὕπουλον, lit. festering within, of the quiet of Aesch., false, treacherous; see Thuc. VIII. 64 (end), τὴν ἀπὸ τῶν Ἀθηναίων ὕπουλον αὐτονομίαν (Bl.).
