Notes
- Same entry in ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon; glossed with
eu)frosu/nh by Herodian and a scholiast on Hesiod.
The headword is a rare feminine noun derived from the verbh(/domai (eta 95 etc.). Other than lexica, grammars, and scholia, the only attestation seems to be one in Cyril of Alexandria.
