Notes
- = Eudemus 2a.22 and Synagoge (Codex B) alpha66; a longer one in Photius, Lexicon alpha86 Theodoridis, with two further glosses (
tima|= ,proseu/xetai ).
The headword itself is third person singular, present indicative active, ofa)ga/llw (cf. under alpha 131), evidently quoted from somewhere. The possibilities include Pindar, Nemeans 5.43, and Euripides, Hercules 379.
The verb is used especially of what one does to a deity: see LSJ (web address 1).
