Notes
- Same entry in other lexica. The headword is present active participle, masculine nominative singular, of the verb
kataspe/rxw . It is here quoted from, and glossed as in the scholia to, Aristophanes, Acharnians 1188 (web address 1): a messenger describes Lamachos' accident in mock-tragic terms borrowed from Euripides.
For this verb see also kappa 994.
