Λοκρῷ ξυνθήματα· παροιμία. τάσσεται ἐπὶ τῶν παρακρουομένων.
Betacode
*lokrw=| cunqh/mata: paroimi/a. ta/ssetai e)pi\ tw=n parakrouome/nwn.
Notes
- Likewise in Photius lambda393 Theodoridis (where however the headword phrase is given as
*Lokrw=n cunqh/mata "Lokrians' agreements").
Hesychius lambda1254 and Zenobius 4.97 give the supposed aetiology: the Lokrians (cf. lambda 667) renege on an agreement with the Heraclidae.
