Notes
- Likewise or similarly in other lexica.
The headword adjective is first attested in Hesiod, Works and Days 28 & 196, but in the masculine/feminine nominative singular. Here it is masculine accusative singular, evidently quoted from somewhere else; extant instances include ones in Clement of Alexandria and Gregory of Nazianzus.
