Meaning
Rhea's lion draws the sacred-wheeled chariot at XIV.2. The verb keeps the lion as the moving agent and the chariot as its object. This adopted reconstruction differs materially from the reported alternative wording, so the scene should not be treated as an undisputed word-for-word witness reading.
