- night
Meaning
The Moon delights in quiet and εὐφρόνη at IX.8. Here the noun names night, further qualified as blessed in its lot, rather than simply a happy state of mind. This distinction is textually important: the apparatus reports εὐφροσύνη and an elided εὐφρόσυν’ against the adopted night-word. The latter fragment cannot be expanded with certainty from the note alone.
