Notes (2)

  1. 1The headword is present participle (masculine nominative singular) of masteu/w, presumably extracted from the quotation given. Hesychius mu352 has an analogous entry for the indicative masteu/ei. ↩
  2. 2Damascius, Life of Isidore fr. 370 Zintzen (307 Asmus), or rather Aelian fr. 314b Domingo-Forasté (317 Hercher); quoted more fully at upsilon 11. ↩
