Note 688 — BOOK THE TWENTY-FIRST.
Theodore Alois Buckley translation · Edition 4
Footnote 688: (return) I have followed Kennedy, who says: “The preferable meaning of τόξα is arcus. This Juno employs as an instrument of chastisement, to avoid the infliction of which, her antagonist turns from side to side, and whilst thus shifting her position lets fall her arrows, ὀϊστοί, ver. 492.” Others by τόξα understood both bow and arrows.
