Thucydides' from

[3] Adler's typesetting regards
dia/foron pra=gma as a two-word phrase, evidently quoted from somewhere. If so, it is unidentifiable. Alternatively, if
pra=gma is not part of the quotation, the point might simply be introductory to the occurrence of
dia/foron in the quotation which follows.

Kynaitha (Arcadia). In a context like this,
