| Text
Commentary |
|
"It is not clear how the line beginnings in the verses can
be identified. Probably each line corresponds to a verse. The lines are
probably in pentameter or contain hexameter and pentameter (Tüner Önen,
2008:343).
Line-1: ἀθλοχάρους is
probably the singularis of
ἀθλοχάρης, meaning
"race-lover". genetivus spy (Tüner Önen, 2008:343)." |
