Notes (2)

  1. From e)fi/hmi; cf. epsilon 3921.
  2. 1Similarly already in Hesychius epsilon7475. The headword must be quoted from somewhere; perhaps Homer (Iliad 15.444 or Odyssey 24.180), though there are numerous alternatives. ↩
  3. 2Likewise or similarly in other lexica, and in the scholia to Homer, Iliad 1.51, from where this participle is quoted. ↩
