Μεγαλίζεο

Notes (1)

1. The headword is the present middle/passive imperative, second person singular, of the verb megali/zomai, I bear myself proudly; see generally LSJ s.v. It is quoted from Homer, Iliad 10.69 (web address 1), with scholion: see next note. There, Agamemnon (cf. alpha 140 and OCD(4) s.v.) sends Menelaus (OCD(4) s.v. Menelaus(1)) to rouse other Greek leaders for a night raid on the Trojan camps and advises him not to be too proud to carry out the chore (Cunliffe s.v., p. 258).
1. 1The gloss is the same form as the lemma, but from the verb e)pai/rw, I exalt, lift up and set on; see LSJ s.v. and epsilon 2014. The headword is identically glossed at ps.-Zonaras 1350.13 and (so Adler) Ambrosian Lexicon 527. It is similarly glossed in the scholia to Homer, Iliad 10.69. ↩
