Notes (2)

  1. See also mu 408.
  2. 1Present middle infinitive of an epic verb. Same or similar glossing in other lexica (see the references at Photius mu176 Theodoridis), and cf. a scholion on Homer, Iliad 18.245, where the headword occurs (web address 1). ↩
  3. 2First person plural future of the same verb; evidently quoted from somewhere, but not otherwise attested. ↩
