[120] εἴ κέ μιν ἀγγείλαιμι ἰδών ‘if I may bring news of having seen him.’

122-132. The connexion of the speech is: ‘We cannot believe any of the wanderers who bring news of him; they make up false tales in order to get entertainment: you may be one of them’: i.e. ‘There are so many false tales brought by wanderers that we must disbelieve you too.’
