Word count: 12
Translation blocked: The main substantive divergence is the headword/form: Billerbeck reads the adjectival Μελήτειος while Meineke reads Μέλητος (a different lexical shape), which could change identification. Other differences are mechanical: an inflectional ending/genitive (Μέλητος vs Μελήτου) with Meineke's bracketed editorial restoration, plus minor punctuation variants.
