[542] The MS. readings seem to point to an original “ἑλοῦσα ἀτάρ”, which is supported by the fact that “αὐτάρ” always has the first syll. in arsis. But the hiatus is not allowed in this place; in 8.503, 11.732, 23.694, and other cases where hiatus occurs before “ἀτάρ”, it is always in the principal caesurae. ἐρωήν, rush, impetus.
