[692] For the termination of ἐγχεσιμώρους see 4.242. The anticipation of the future course of the story in 694 is paralleled in 724, but is not in the Homeric style; the Epic poet occasionally speaks of future events as prophetically known to his characters, but foreshadows them in his own words only in suspicious passages.
