- Adler cites comparable entries (674, 695) in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
The headword, neuter nominative/accusative singular of alpha 667, is quoted from somewhere, probably Homer: see Iliad 9.5 (of winds: web address 1 below), 21.395 (of boldness, tharsos: web address 2), and cf.ai)/hton in 18.410 (of the god Hephaestus: web address 3).
