Meno 70c

… ἐνθάδε δέ, ὦ φίλε Μένων, τὸ ἐναντίον περιέστηκεν: ὥσπερ αὐχμός τις τῆς σοφίας γέγονεν, καὶ κινδυνεύει … (70c)

“Hither, who loves placed the object inversely in a way placed a round: as the aridness of the things that are loved and to come into a new state, being daring …”

περιέστηκεν: to place is the 3rd raw preverb of the perfect ind. active

Socrates is either making reference to “this place” in the Meno in which things can enter into new states of being, using the interrogative τίς.
