Note 127 — ARRIAN ON COURSING.
William Dansey translation
Ἐμπίπτουσαι γὰρ ἀλλήλαις ἔστιν ὅτε μεγάλα κακὰ ἐργάζονται.
Apollon. Rhod. L. iii. 1372.
Somerville’s Chace. B. i.
—— θοοὶ κύνες ἀμφιθορόντες Ἀλλήλους βρυχηδὸν ἐδήϊον. For oft in sport Begun, combat ensues; growling they snarl, Then on their haunches rear’d, rampant they seize Each other’s throats; with teeth and claws in gore Besmear’d, they wound, they tear, till on the ground Panting, half dead the conquer’d champion lies, &c.
