Translation: Aristophanes [writes]:
Agathon is beginning "to put in the stocks the beginnings of a drama. He is bending new felloes of verses; some he is turning on the lathe, others he is patching together; and he is coining maxims and using rhetorical figures; he is moulding, he is modelling, he is smelting... [Another speaker:] ... and going whoring."

Notes:
From
delta 1547, q.v.
The unglossed quotation that comprises this entry is
Aristophanes,
Thesmophoriazusae 52-57 (web address 1), lampooning the style of the tragedian
Agathon. The first verb picked out as the headword phrase should however be
xoaneu/ei; the Suda's
xianeu/ei is repeated from the earlier entry.
