*duse/kluta: dusxerw=s luo/mena.

= Hesychius delta2555, Synagoge delta397, Photius delta808. The headword is nominative/accusative neuter plural of the rare adjective duse/klutos.
In classical authors this adjective is attested only in a fragment of Aeschylus, where it is neuter singular. The lexicographers' neuter plural might be extracted from Basil of Caesarea, Homily on the text destruam horrea mea 1 (on Job).
