(4) Τὰ μὲν γὰρ τοιαῦτα ὦκα ἑκατόγχειρον καλέσασ’ (Α 402) καὶ θῖνα ἐφ’ ἁλὸς πολιῆς (Α 350. Ν 682. Ξ 31.) οὐ μᾶλλον συνεκφώνησιν ἔχει ἢ συναλοιφήν. (5) Ἔστι δὲ ὅπου καὶ βραχεῖα καὶ κοινὴ ἀντὶ βραχείας παραλαμβάνονται ὡς ἐν τῷ δενδρέῳ ἐφεζόμενοι ὄπα λειριόεσσαν ἱεῖσι (Γ 152) καὶ χρυσέῳ ἀνὰ σκήπτρῳ (Α 15. 374).
