- 1= Synagoge kappa524; Photius, Lexicon kappa1266 Theodoridis; cf. Hesychius kappa4748. ↩
- 2This gloss is confined, Adler reports, to mss GM. It is paralleled in ps.-Herodian, Epimerismi 73.11 and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon (1903), and cf. also: the scholia to Aeschylus, Seven against Thebes 495; to Oppian, Halieutica 1.334; to Nicander, Alexipharmaka 586; Athanasios, On the Psalms 27.557.22; Cyril of Alexandria, On the Psalms 69.1128.35. ↩
- 3Bernhardy deleted this part of the entry. It is possible that it belongs not here but at kappa 2793, where a quotation in the entry contains this participle and the lemma is the uncompounded form of the same participle (
kutw/santes ). This form also appears in tau 1164 (where it is used to describe the making of a drum), but neither it nor any other form of the compounded verb is attested elsewhere. ↩ - 4Quotation (anticipated at kappa 998?) unidentifiable. ↩
