(1) Reading {otan... paradexetai... os anabesomenos}. Or,

reading {otan paradexetai ton ippea (sc. o. ippos) ws

anabesomenon}, transl. "the horse has been brought round ready for

mounting."

(2) So Courier, "la muserolle." It might be merely a stitched leather

strap or made of a chain in part, which rattled; as

{khrusokhalinon patagon psalion} (Aristoph. "Peace," 155) implies.

"Curb" would be misleading.

(3) "Near the withers."

(4) Or, "as soon as he has got the springing poise preliminary to

mounting."
