Greek Original:Ἄγριον ὑποβλέπει με: μᾶλλον χρηστέον ἢ ὑποβλέπεται. οἱ δὲ ἐλέφαντες ἀνέτρεχον καὶ ἐβόων ἀγριαίνοντες. καὶ ἄγριον ὑποβλέποντες. καὶ αὖθις: ὁ δὲ τὸ θηριῶδες καὶ ἄγριον ὑπεκίνει καὶ διηρέθιζεν, εἴ που κύριος γένηται τοῦ χωρίου.
Notes:
[1] The point (hard to convey in English translation) is that the active voice of the verb
ὑποβλέπειν is preferable to the middle. The quotation itself, also in
Eudemus, is unidentifiable.
[2] Quotation (with another idiom: the participle
ἀγριαίνοντες ) unidentifiable.
[3] Quotation unidentifiable.
[4] Quotation unidentifiable. (At
delta 1012, where it reappears, Adler suggests
Aelian.)
