Notes on the current edition

History of the Peloponnesian War

1. ἀνάρμοστοι,] or, as others take it,
unprepared against each of them.
2. χερσαῖοι.] I have ventured to use a rather slang term, because the qualifying expression, ὡς εἰπεῖν, which is added in the original, seems to imply that χερσαῖοι was employed by him with a similar meaning of reproach. The meaning of σφάλλω, as used just below, seems borrowed from the unsteady reeling motion of an intoxicated person; the simile used by the Psalmist with reference to mariners tossed in the storm,
they reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.
Or it may mean to
embarrass.
