The text is corrupt at the indicated point, marked by the dagger symbols (†). The phrase 'πορνιδίων' (of prostitutes) is widely regarded by scholars as a later interpolation or a corruption of the original text, likely introduced by a scribe attempting to clarify an obscure reference to the comic character's alleged vices. The original reading is uncertain; some conjectures suggest the word may have been 'πορνῶν' (of harlots) in a different grammatical construction, or that the entire phrase 'πορνιδίων' is a gloss that entered the text. The phrase 'ἀπὸ πάντων ... φέρει' (carries from all) is syntactically difficult without the intervening noun, and the corruption obscures the specific nature of the character's alleged misconduct or the grammatical object of 'φέρει'. This is a genuine crux in the text of the Frogs, with no consensus on the original reading.
