ἐν γὰρ explaining ὅπερ ἐγένετο, not the fear of the oligarchs (δείσαντες). The events at Samos were not yet known at Athens. ἐνεωτερίζετο ἤδη τὰ περὶ τὴν ὀλιγαρχίαν ‘a reaction had set in against the oligarchical movement’ (J.) The passive as in iv. 41, μὴ σφίσι τι νεωτερισθῇ τῶν κατὰ τὴν χώραν, corresponding to the active of i. 115, νεωτερίσαι βουλόμενοι τὴν πολιτείαν. ὅνπερ = ὐφ᾽ ὅνπερ. Cf. c. 76, § 4, ἐκ τοῦ αὐτοῦ χωρίου ἀμυνεῖσθαι οὗπερ πρότερον; i. 1, ἐκ δὲ τεκμηρίων ὧν . . . πιστεῦσαι ξυνέβη (which, however, might be a case of attraction for οἷς). Xen. Symp. iv. 1, ἐν τῷ χρόνῳ ᾧ ὑμῶν ἀκούω etc.
