Meaning
Lysios reveals himself to whichever mortals or immortals he wishes (L.9). In the printed text the infinitive πιφαύσκειν depends on ἐθέλεις, with σε as its object. The reported participle πιφαύσκων would organize the clause differently; the adopted construction explicitly connects revelation with the god’s choice.
