Meaning
In the Mnemosyne hymn a person lays or stores a thought in the breast at LXXVII.7. The middle subjunctive belongs to an indefinite clause about whatever each person has deposited inwardly. The apparatus reports difficult κάτθηται with a different case for “each”; it should not be silently expanded into a confidently different verb.
