From the dream-interpretations, in verse, of Astrampsychos (alpha 4251); again at nu 315. An allusion to the old metaphor of spun thread as fate. Plato (Laws 960C) uses the aorist participle instead of this perfect participle with the same meaning, and Philostratus uses the same word (Heroicus 732.7: διεπόρθμευσεν αὐτὸν ἐς τὴν Φθίαν διὰ τὰ ἐπ' αὐτῷ κεκλωσμένα , "Thetis sent Achilles away to Phthia because of what was fated for him", i.e. to prevent him dying in Troy.)
