Help with Ovid's Metamorphoses VIII. 569-70

567-70:

hac Ixionides, illa Troezenius heros

parte Lelex, raris iam sparsus tempora canis,

quosque alios parili fuerat dignatus honore

amnis Acarnanum, laetissimus hospite tanto.

'on this side lay Ixion's son, on that side the hero of Troezen,
Lelex, with his temples already sprinkled with sparse grey hairs,
and others of the Arcanians whom the river deemed worthy of equal honour, most delighted had he been in such a guest.'

Am I right to take 'fuerat' with 'laetissimus'? I feel like it shouldn't because of the comma after Acarnanum, but I don't see where else it'd go.

Does anyone else just get sudden knee pain while walking? I feel like I look so stupid when I suddenly start limping when I was walking normally just moments before. Is it a subluxation or something else?
