Exegesis
The conditional clause ei sy ebastasas auton {εἰ σὺ ἐβάστασας αὐτόν | ei sý e-bás-ta-sas au-tón} ‘if you carried him’ introduces a hypothetical, followed by the imperative eipe moi {εἰπέ μοι | ei-pé moi} ‘tell me’ and the interrogative pou ethēkas auton {ποῦ ἔθηκας αὐτόν | poû é-thē-kas au-tón} ‘where you laid him’, which preserve urgency.
