Translation

Κατέλυεν· ἔμενεν. εἰς τὸ δωμάτιον, οὗ δὴ κατέλυε, γεγονότα.

Betacode

*kate/luen: e)/menen. ei)s to\ dwma/tion, ou(= dh\ kate/lue, gegono/ta.

Notes (2)

1The headword is imperfect of katalu/w, third person singular (presumably extracted from the quotation given, on which see next note); cf. kappa 636, kappa 637, kappa 638. ↩
2Once taken to be a fragment of Aelian (81 Hercher) and still so in the most recent edition of him (84g Domingo-Forasté); however, as Adler notes, this is actually from an anecdote in Procopius, Secret History 12.26 (web address 1), of the monk avoiding an encounter with Justinian; cf. Kaldellis (60) and epsiloniota 225. ↩
