Note 177 — ARRIAN ON COURSING.

Οἱ δὲ ἐμπεδούντων τὸ ταχθέν. Obedience to the orders of the ἄρχων or ἀγωνοθέτης, in a coursing field, is an essential point of discipline: indeed, we could not select any more important for the regulation of such an assemblage than the brief and emphatic injunction of our author in his Tactics, Arriani Tactic. 71. Ed. Blancard.“silence and attention to orders”—σίγα καὶ πρόσεχε τῷ παραγγελλομένῳ.
