ἐμβαλεῖν sc. εἰς τὸν ἐχῖνον, § 17.—ὀργὴ, the indignation of the court.—ἂν λαβεῖν depends, like the previous clause, on ἡγεῖτο. γραμματεῖον δὲ ‘Whereas to give evidence of a document having been bequeathed to him was a trifle of no importance.’ Kennedy. “Πασίωνος καὶ Φορμίωνος”] ‘At ineptus Pasio fuisset, si hoc inscripsisset; de utrisque enim, et Phormione et filiis, in eo constituerat’ (Lortzing Apoll. p. 78).—ἐτήρει τούτῳ sc. Φορμίωνι. ‘If the inscription had been, This belongs to Pasio, and to Phormion, or for Phormion, or anything of that sort, he would reasonably have kept it for him.’
Select Private Orations of Demosthenes, Part II. J. E. Sandys, Litt. D., and F. A. Paley, M.A., LL.D. 1910. Cambridge University Press.
