1The headword is present participle, feminine nominative singular; same or similar glossing in other lexica; evidently quoted from somewhere (Theodoridis on Photius kappa928 mentions Aristotle and John Chrysostom as possibilities, and one could add many others).↩
2Figurative phrase with the same participle, but in the masculine nominative plural. Again it must be quoted from somewhere; the TLG shows numerous instances, all in Christian writers.
