When we combine [it] with a genitive, it signifies 'I disdain', but with an accusative 'I approve.'[1]
But [sc. this verb] also signifies they were gazing [in wonder]. "Standing, they were marveling".[2]
"I myself marvel, how after so many things had been said, you forgot those things, which were many and beautiful -- for I would not say of you 'you did not perceive [them]', unless I had frequently forgotten myself earlier [...]"[3]

[2] Apparently (as Adler notes) Homer, Iliad 18.496 (web address 1), with comments derived from the scholia. In Homer, however, the phrase occurs with the feminine form of the participle that means 'standing' (i(sta/menai), rather than the masculine, as here (i(sta/menoi).
