Translation

[Meaning] outside under the sky. Another word for it is u(/paiqron.¹
Also [meaning] fair weather.²
Xenophon [writes]: "those who had torched the houses paid the price when they camped outside uncomfortably in the open air."³

Greek original · Adler’s text

Αἰθρία· ἔξω ὑπὸ τὸν ἀέρα. λέγεται δὲ καὶ ὕπαιθρον. καὶ ἡ εὐδία. Ξενοφῶν· οἱ δὲ τὰς οἰκίας ἐμπρήσαντες δίκην ἔδοσαν ὑπὸ τῆς αἰθρίας κακῶς σκηνοῦντες.

[1] See upsilon 175.

3An approximation of Xenophon, Anabasis 4.4.14 (web address 1) -- where, however, editors prefer the reading u(po\ a)tasqali/as, 'recklessly' (see generally alpha 4325).
