1238. mvp-comment-876-1 ὡς ἔοικεν, οὐ νέμειν] For this confusion between οὐ νέμει, ὡς ἔοικεν, and ἔοικεν οὐ νέμειν, cp. Hdt. 1. 58, ὡς .. δοκέει, οὐδὲ . . αὐξηθῆναι. For the present-future, cp. supr. 1083, and note. And for the feeling of φθίνοντι, cp. Tennyson's Morte d'Arthur, 'Authority forgets a dying king, | Laid widowed of the power in his eye | That bowed the will.'
