[90] διὰ . . τελευτᾶι, ‘brings to their issue,’ “διατελεῖ”. θεός, dirine power, is not to be taken as identical with “Ἄτη”. There is an old variant “θεούς” with which τελευτᾶι must be taken as intrans., or “τέτυκται” read (so Did.). A stranger reading is that of Hellanikos, “θεόσδια” = “θεόσδοτα! θεὸς δ᾽ ἴα”, one goddess (Ate), is a more ingenious arrangement of the letters.
