Here it might be argued that AUTOU should be construed with OFQALMWN.
To be sure the clause would be Englished as “There fell from his eyes
something like scalles .. “ I think however that AUTOU here
probably construes directly with APEPESAN rather than with OFQALMWN.
How would you translate AUTOU with APEPESAN, assuming the singular AUTOU construes with the plural APEPESAN?
