ἐξισοῖ, trans., as in 738 and elsewhere in Sophocles: schol. “οὐκ ἴσα πράττει τῷ τῆς μητρὸς ὀνόματι”. Cp. Tr. 818μηδὲν ὡς τεκοῦσα δρᾷ”. It is needless to assume an intrans. use here (‘resembles’). Such an use is generally recognised, indeed, in Thuc. 5. 71§ 2, and 6. 87 § 5; though in each place it is possible to supply an acc. from the context.
