Notes
- The headword, epic present active participle, nominative singular masculine, of the verb
kudia/w ('glory'), appears frequently in poetry. The entry probably derives from commentary to Homer, where the word occurs several times, e.g. Iliad 2.579 and 6.509 (web addresses 1 and 2); cf. scholia ad loc., Etymologicum Gudianum 351.45.
