Notes
- This trisyllabic form with iota should be the first person singular, imperfect, of
ei)=mi , not ofei)mi/ (Smyth §773, p. 212: web address 1). The mistake comes from a scholion on Homer, Iliad 5.808, whereh)=a should be read (Homeric text at web address 2). Correct in Hesychius eta247, Photius (Lexicon eta83) and elsewhere.
For the glossing cf. eta 120.
