Translation:
Herodotos [writes]: "How have you not sailed out of your right mind, mutilating yourself?" [He uses this Ionic form] instead of [Attic] ἐξέπλευσας ["you have sailed out"], that is you have been turned aside and you have run aground.
Greek Original:
Ἐξέπλωσας: Ἡρόδοτος: πῶς οὐκ ἐξέπλωσας τῶν φρενῶν σεωυτὸν διαφθείρας; ἀντὶ τοῦ ἐξέπλευσας, τουτέστι παρετράπης καὶ ἐξώκειλας.
