Notes (2)
- The headword participle occurs here and elsewhere (see next note) in the nominative plural, but the ultimate source is evidently Thucydides 8.79.3, where it is accusative plural (web address 1).
The verbnaumaxhsei/w is a desiderative formation fromnaumaxe/w (nu 65). - 1Likewise in Photius nu47 Theodoridis. ↩
- 2These additions come from a marginal gloss in ms M. ↩
