The end of the line seems to have an error in it and defies articulation. If there is a corruption, Korte's ο]ὐ βατὸν ("not to be walked on, inaccessible") followed by Maas's εἴ τιν’ ἀκούω ("If I hear someone") suggests a line of approach.

Leimonis was the daughter of Hippomenes, the last descendent of Codrus of Athens. When her father discovered that she had been seduced, he closed her up in a stall with a horse that killed her. He then killed the man who had seduced her, tied him to a horse, and dragged him through the town. The cruelty of Hippomenes was legendary and is cited as the reason that the rule of the Codrids came to an end.
