Translation

[Meaning he/she/it] shone forth.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀπήστραψεν· ἀπέλαμψεν.

Betacode

*)aph/strayen: a)pe/lamyen.

Notes

No equivalent entry in other lexica. The headword is aorist active, third person singular, of a)pastra/ptw (used of lightning etc.). It must be quoted from somewhere -- perhaps Plutarch's On the Fortune of the Romans (Moralia 323C): the head of the child Servius Tullius, the future king, 'flashed forth very like the gleam of lightning'.
