P Oxy VI. 898.25 (A.D. 123) οἰομένη ἐκ τούτου δύνασθαι ἐκφυγεὶν ἃ διέπραξεν, ";thinking by this means to escape the consequences of her misdeeds"; (Edd.). In the curious P Ryl I. 28 (iv/A.D.), in which prognostications are drawn from the involuntary quivering of various parts of the body, we have .164 ff. σφυρὸν εὐώνυμον ἐὰν ἅληται, ἐν κρίσει βαρη [θ ]ε ̣ι ̣̣ς ἔσται καὶ ἐκφεύξεται, ";if the left ankle quiver, he will be burdened with a trial, and will be acquitted"; (Ed.) : cf. Romans 2:3. In the iv/A.D. Christian letter, P Heid 6.13 (= Selections, p. 126), the writer, citing loosely from Proverbs 10:19, has—ἐν γὰρ [πο ]λλῇ λαλιᾷ οὐκ ἐκφεύξοντ [αι ](τ)ὴ (ν) ἁμαρτίη ̄. MGr ξεφεύγω.
