979. κἄλωρα κωλύουσαν ὡς μένειν ἐρῶ, is confessedly nonsense. The first word is corrected to κἄωρα, rather (I think) κἄνωρα, since Herodotus has ἄνωρος and ἀνωρία. Ἄνωρα, as less usual than ἄωρα, might get corrupted. Further, I suggest, κἄνωρα [or καὶ χλωρὰ] κωλύουσ᾽ κωλύουσα σᾶ μένειν ἐρᾷ: that is, ἐρᾷ (φιλεῖ) κωλύουσα, "she loves to hinder the unripe from abiding safe."
983. For μὴ πάθωμεν I think we need μὴ λαθώμεθ᾽ ("let us not forget"), unless a whole line is lost after δορί.
THE END.
