Translation
It is applied to washing in the evangelist Mark in the chapter of [ = on] the Transfiguration.1
But in the kappa [entry]:2 there lies a usage of Aristophanes, thus: "if the fullers supplied cloaks to those who needed them, whenever the sun first turned, then pleurisy would never get any of you."3
And it seems that the [word] "fuller" [knapheus], from chlaina ["cloak"], is applied to skins.
