Betacode

*)agnapto/tatos ba/tos au)=os: e)pi\ tou= sklhrou= kai\ au)qa/dous to\n tro/pon.

Copied to alpha 273, q.v. (in the correct alphabetical context). In both places the adjective is given as a)gnapto/tatos, most unfulled (of cloth) or unwashed; for "stiffest", a)gnampto/tatos, which is surely correct, see Zenobius 1.16.
