Extract

There are three things to be noticed with regard to ἤκoυoευ ⋯ Λευκíφφη άυoιλoμέυωυ τωυ (a) the hiatus; (b) the fact that in every other place where Achilles Tatius uses άκoὐω with the genitive of the source of the sound and an appended participle the participle always belongs to a verb of speaking used literally (λέγoυτoς 1.8.2.16; 2.36.3.8; ειφόυτoς 3.21.6.13; λαλoὐνς 3.18.1.12 (sc. ταὐτης); ςιαλεγoμέυωυ 2.26.1.15; φoτυιωμέυης 6.15.4.28; ὐφoκπρωoμέυoυ 7.11.1.6) or metaphorically (2.14.8.15 άκoυσαι. . . του ὐδατoς λαλoυυτoς); (c) 2.23.6.11–12 τòυ ψóφoυ άκoὐσας άυoιγoμέυωυ τωυ υυρωυ.

3 The same holds good for , as one might expect, and this tells against Carney's unnecessary at 3.11.1.1
