[21] The use of ὅς κεν in a gnomic sentence is unusual; but cp. l. 55. It might be defended here on the ground that “βούλεται ὀφέλλειν” is felt as a future. But it is of little use to discuss the syntax until the “ϝ” of “ϝοῖκον” has been restored. In any case the subj. “ὀπυίῃ” is probably right: “ὀπυίοι” comes from 2. 336., 16. 386.
