Notes
- The headword is an epic/poetic adjective: see Homer, Iliad 1.248; also in the Homeric Hymn to Apollo (4) and in Hesiod and Pindar. (The scholia to the Iliad passage gloss it:
o( h(du\s e)n tw=| le/gein ).
Entry paralleled in the Synagoge (Lexica Segueriana 242.12), the source of which could be Herodian, Partitiones 45.12 or an interpolated gloss -– at least according to Latte -- in Hesychius (eta137).
