having looked around themselves
| Morphological Notes | Verb; aorist tense (completed action), middle voice (self-involved/reflexive), participle; nominative masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The aorist participle conveys a completed action, rendered as "having looked." The middle voice adds reflexive/self-involved nuance, reflected in "themselves," and the nominative masculine plural matches a masculine plural subject. |
