Νηρεύς (fr. 32) 151
elsewhere before the second century AD, τονθορυσμός or related forms are
attested already at A. fr. 298 (the sound made by a bull when its throat has just
been cut). That the three occurrences of τονθορύζω in Aristophanes (Ac/z. 683;
V. 614; Ra. 747) all mean ‘grumble’ or ‘mutter’, while elsewhere it is glossed
ήρεμα γογγύζειν (Synagoge τ 221, etc.), suggests that γογγύζω is the stronger
verb. The corruption in the transmitted text is due to mistaken word division,
which produced the unwanted article τόν, or haplography.
