[151] As punctuated, ὡς and ὧδε are correlative: ‘as each man shall see A. fighting so let him fight himself’ (so Nikanor). This is easier than to take “ὥς κε” as final (with a full stop after “φάλαγγας”), as we must then join it with “μνησώμεθα χάρμης”, which is too far off, and 153 becomes a very awkward addition. The most satisfactory form of the speech would be gained by either omitting 149-50, or placing them after 153 with Peppmüller. Heyne omits the tautological 153.
