Notes (1)

[1] Masculine nominative plural of this present participle (already at alpha 1983, q.v.), presumably from the quotation which follows.
2Adler suggested Aelian as the source of this quotation; in fact it comes from Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus, On Virtues and Vices 3.4 (on the Minotaur). See further Favuzzi 53.
