ἀντευπάσχω
καλῶς δρῶν ἐξαμαρτεῖν μᾶλλον ἢ νικᾶν κακῶς → I would prefer to fail with honor than to win by evil | I prefer to fail by acting rightly rather than win by acting wrongly | Better fail by doing right, than win by doing wrong (Sophocles, Philoctetes 95)

and ἀντευ-ποιέω are by recent edd. written divisim ἀντ' εὖ π. (v. Pl.Grg.520e, X.An.5.5.21, D.20.124), on the ground that εὖ never enters into direct composition with Verbs, A v. εὖ fin.; but ἀντευποιεῖν is read in Arist.EN1179a28, Rh. 1374a24.

ἀντευπάσχω: καὶ ἀντευποιέω γράφονται ὑπὸ τῶν νεωτέρων ἐκδοτῶν διῃρημένως, ἀντ’ εὖ π. (ἴδε Πλάτ. Γοργ. 520Ε, Ξεν. Ἀν. 5. 5, 21, Δημ. 494. 22), ἐπὶ τῷ λόγῳ ὅτι τὸ εὖ οὐδέποτε συντίθεται ἀπ’ εὐθείας μετὰ ῥημάτων, ἴδε εὖ ἐν τέλει· ἀλλ’ ὁ Βέκκ. διατηρεῖ τὸ ἀντευποιεῖν ἐν Ἀριστ. Ἠθ. Ν. 10. 8, 13, Ρητ. 1. 13, 12.
