[245] πάρος only here goes with the pres. instead of the aor. infin. So with “πρίν” — the only exceptions to the rule being Od. 19.475, 1.99 (where the pres. “ἄγειν” is preceded by the aor. “δόμεναι”). See Gildersleeve's instructive remarks in A. J. P. ii. 467. Monro suggests, however, that μέδεσθαι may be aor. of “μήδομαι”, H. G. § 31. 2; no forms occur which necessarily imply “μέδομαι”.
