Notes
- Likewise or similarly in other lexica, including Apollonius' Homeric Lexicon. The headword is the aorist active infinitive of
e)lefai/rw ; for the glossing cf. scholion on Homer, Iliad 23.388, where the aorist middle participle occurs. The active is attested only in lexicography.
See also epsilon 817.
