a. ἀλλὰ νῦν ἑκαταβόλων: τότε μὲν οὖν καὶ παρὰ τὸν καιρὸν τῆς νίκης ἐκεῖνα ἐλέχθη ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ· νυνὶ δὲ ἀπὸ τῶν τὰ πόρρω βαλλόντων τόξων μουσικῶν. b. τὸ δὲ ὅλον τροπή· τόξῳ μὲν γὰρ τὴν ποίησιν, βέλεσι δὲ τὰ ἐγκώμια παραβάλλει. c. ἄλλως· ἑαυτῷ παρακελεύεται· | ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὸν ἐνεστῶτα χρόνον, φησὶν, ἀπὸ τῶν μουσικῶν τόξων ἐπινεμήθητι τοῖς ὕμνοις τὸν Δία καὶ τὴν Ὀλυμπίαν. d. ἑκαταβόλων δὲ, τῶν εἰς ἅπαντα τόπον διικνεῖσθαι ποιούντων τὰ ποιήματα.
