Notes
- The headword adjective is a lengthened form of
e(/khlos (for which see epsilon 435). It is probably quoted from Homer, Iliad 1.554 (web address 1); see the corresponding scholia. Also in Homer, Odyssey 3.263 (web address 2); Hesiod, Works and Days 671 (web address 3); Aeschylus, Seven Against Thebes 238 (web address 4); and Sophocles, Electra 241 (web address 5). Also glossed in Hesychius, Orion [Author, Myth], ps.-Zonaras and the Etymologicum Magnum; cf. Etymologicum Genuinum s.v.a(/ss' e)qe/lh|sqa and ps.-Zonaras s.v.e(/khlos .
cf. generally epsilon 3535.
