Notes

  1. This entry glosses an unfamiliar perfect of kale/w (the tense having died out in the vernacular by then) with a familiar aorist of the same verb.
    Perhaps from the Septuagint (five instances); alternatively, a verse by the comic poet Straton, quoted in Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 9.382C [9.29 Kaibel].
