Translation

[Meaning he/she/it] desires, goes.¹
Also [sc. attested is the imperfect] i(/eto ["he/she/it was yearning"].²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἵεται· προθυμεῖται, πορεύεται. καὶ Ἵετο.

Betacode

*(/ietai: proqumei=tai, poreu/etai. kai\ *(/ieto.

Notes (1)

[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica (see the references at Photius iota69 Theodoridis), and cf. generally iota 205. The primary headword (which must be quoted from somewhere) is third person singular middle present of i(/hmi (cf. also iota 151, iota 153).

2Imperfect middle of the same verb; cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 2.589, where this form occurs.
