Extract
Modern editors take λάθρη (or P.'s λάθρια γελάοϖα as = ‘smiling secretly’— hiding the smile she felt inclined to show. This involves the two difficulties (1) the γελάοισα of 1. 95; (2) the expression βαρùν δʼἀνὰθυμòνἔΧοισα. To take first: If Aphrodite came smiling it is absurd to say in the next line that as matter of fact she was hiding her smiles. This has led to Ahlwardt's quite unjustifiable ἁδέη, accepted by Hiller.
