But the word ἀκρατέστερον, meaning the same as ζωρότερον, is used by Hyperides in his oration against Demosthenes; where he writes thus—If any one drank any wine of much strength (ἀκρατέστερον), it grieved you. And a similar form is ἀνιαρέστερον, and also the expression in the Heliades of Aeschylus— ἀφθονέστερον λίβα. And Epicharmus, in his Pyrrha, has the word εὐωνέστερον (cheaper); and Hyperides, in his Oration against Demades, has used the expression— ῥαδιεστέραν τὴν πόλιν. And as for the word κεραννύω (to mix), that is used by Plato in his Philebus—Let us, O Protarchus, pray to the gods, and mingle cups (κεραννύωμεν) to pour libations to them. And Alcæus, in his Sacred Marriage, says— They mix the cups (κεραννύουσιν) and drink them. And Hyperides, in his Delian Oration, says—And the Greeks mix (κεραννύουσι) the Panionian goblet all together.
