Was tönt vereinigt euer Ruf mir abermals,
Von euch vernehmlich, deutlich aus des Fremdlings Mund?

Verbum σπεῦσον deest in antiquis libris, additum in Triclinianis. Id cur recentiores critici vel damnaverint, quum non ineptum sit, nec sciamus non esse e codicibus sumptum, vel posthabuerint deterioribus conjecturis, non assequor. Herm.
