Notes
- An entry taken from Hesychius eta105. The Lexicon Ambrosianum (Ambrosianus B12 sup. fol. 77r and Laurentianus 59.16 fol. 187r) has:
h)/dei: h)pi/stato .
cf. scholion on Homer, Iliad 2.832; and see also eta 82 (and eta 80, eta 84).
The headwordh)/dee is the epic/Ionic form for the first glossing wordh|)/dei – pluperfect of the verboi)=da ; it is frequently used in Homer and Herodotus, and in several imitators of the epic style. The rest of the occurrences are in Homeric quotations or commentaries.
