[435] ἀρημένος, worn out, weary, with which Schulze (Q. E. 460) would connect it etymologically, writing “ϝαρ-ημένος”; cf. note on 10.98. The word is elsewhere purely Odyssean: the only place in which this sense is not quite suitable is Od. 9.403 “τίπτε τόσον, Πολύφημ᾽, ἀρημένος ὧδε βόησας”; where we might have expected a rather stronger word. ἄλλα δέ μοι νῦν, we must it seems supply “ἄλγε᾽ ἔδωκεν” or “ἔστιν” from 431.
