Notes (3)

  1. 1cf. Syntacticum Gudianum. (Also, as we see in the main quotation, with genitive.) ↩
  2. 2Aorist subjunctive of kate/xw, third person singular; evidently quoted from somewhere. ↩
  3. 3Adler marks this quotation (with the aorist participle of kate/xw, repeated at omicron 861) as an interpolation, citing Narration 6 of St. Nilus the Hermit of Sinai (PG 79.677a). Nilus is overcome by joy at his reunion with his son Theodoulos who had been captured and enslaved by the Saracens. On Nilus, see the Catholic Encyclopedia entry at web address 1. ↩
