Notes (2)
- 1Homer, Odyssey 17.190; so glossed in the Etymologicum Magnum (considered as citing Herodian,
*peri\ paqw=n p. 283 Lentz). Cf. mu 555. ↩ - 2Callimachus, Hecale fr. 304 Pfeiffer: "and about their head there was set a new round hat having come from Haemonia [alphaiota 204], a defence against the midday heat." The gloss "constructed with care" arises from confusion with
me/mbleto "he has taken care", already seen in mu 555. It is of course impossible here, as it would have the hat doing the constructing. ↩
