41 words
[Meaning he] having overturned, having destroyed, or having been entertained well. It is applied also in reference to the bringing down of one who has been hanged; for properly one should not say katenegkei=n ["bringing down"] of him, but katalu=sai ["releasing"].

Greek original · Adler’s text

Καταλύσας· καταστρέψας, ἀφανίσας, ἢ εὐωχηθείς. τάττεται δὲ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς τοῦ ἀπαγξαμένου κατενέξεως. οὐ γὰρ δεῖ λέγειν κυρίως κατενεγκεῖν ἐπ' αὐτοῦ, ἀλλὰ καταλῦσαι.
