Νέµουσι δ' οἴκους καὶ τὰ ναυστολούµενα ἔσω δόµων σῴζουσιν, οὐδ' ἐρηµίᾳ γυναικὸς οἶκος εὐπινὴς οὐδ' ὄλβιος → They manage households, and save what is brought by sea within the home, and no house deprived of a woman can be tidy and prosperous

Euripides, Melanippe Captiva, Fragment 6.11

Adv., (ἐφίστημι, ἐπιστῆναι)

   A standing over each in turn (ἐφιστάμενος ἑκάστῳ EM364.35), i.e. one after another, successively, νείκεον ἄλλοθεν ἄλλον ἐ. Od.12.392; νώμησεν δ' ἄρα πᾶσιν ἐ. 13.54; standing by, A.R.1.293; ἐ. οὐτάζοντες standing up to each other, Id.2.84.—The words of Od.16.453, δόρπον ἐ. ὡπλίζοντο, seem to have given rise to the other expl. of the Sch., ἐπισταμένως, ἐμπείρως (as if from ἐπίσταμαι).
