a. ἦν ὅτι νιν πεπρωμένον: αὐτὸ, τὸ τεῖχος. b. οὗτοι [δὲ] συνεργὸν εἵλοντο τὸν Αἰακὸν, ἐπειδὴ ἦν αὐτῷ πεπρωμένον, τῷ τείχει, πολέμου γενομένου πυρὶ καταφλεχθῆναι πολλῷ. οὐ γὰρ ἦν δυνατὸν ἁλῶναι αὐτὸ, εἰ τὸ πᾶν ἔργον ἦν θεῶν. c. ἄλλως· ὅτι πέπρωτο δορυάλωτον γενομένην τὴν πόλιν ταύτην ἐμπυρισθῆναι, διὰ τοῦτό φησι τὸν Ποσειδῶνα καὶ τὸν Ἀπόλλωνα εἰς τὴν τῆς Ἰλίου τείχισιν προσλαβεῖν τὸν Αἰακὸν, διὰ τοῦ ὑπ᾿ αὐτοῦ οἰκοδομηθέντος ἵνα ἁλώσιμος γένηται καὶ μὴ διὰ τοῦ ὑπὸ τῶν θεῶν. d. πεπρωμένον: ὅτι πεπρωμένον ἦν δοριάλωτον γενηθεῖσαν τὴν Ἴλιον ἐμπυρισθῆναι· ὅπως κατὰ τὸ τοῦ Αἰακοῦ ἔργον ἁλῴη τὸ τεῖχος, καὶ μὴ κατὰ τὸ τῶν θεῶν.
