[127] ἰχθύς, the “υ” is apparently long by nature, cf. H. G. § 116. 4. ὅς κε φάγηισι who shall eat, with a prophetic colouring (H. G. § 282), and also a suggestion of intention. This alone is conveyed by the variant “ὥς κε”, which, though well attested, is hardly so good. The objection that “ὅς κε φάγηισι” must mean shall have eaten is sufficiently refuted by 8.33, 9.165, 24.119, Od. 10.538, Od. 13.399, and other passages in H. G. § 282.
