Greek original

Notes

From Harpokration s.v., commenting on the phrase in a fragment of Dinarchus (VI.5 Conomis).
On the "king" (basileus) archon at Athens cf. epsilon 2468 and see generally P.J. Rhodes, A Commentary on the Aristotelian Athenaion Politeia (Oxford 1981) 636-50 and passim -- but little or nothing is known of his "parade".
