Extract

The two meanings of ἄγρα [(i) the chase, (2) game, booty taken in hunting] are also meanings of θ⋯ρα and similarly θηρέὐέιν is parallel to ⋯γρέὐέιν both in form and in meaning. These facts are of more importance for the etymology of ἅγρα than the accidental resemblance to ⋯γρέῖν or to ⋯γέἰρέιν.
