Notes

  1. Also in the Lexica Segueriana (421.16).
    The earliest attestation of the headword phrase itself occurs in one of the declamations of M. Antonius Polemon (C1-2 CE), though it would be rash to assert that that passage has generated the entry. The Carmina moralia of Gregory of Nazianzus also provide an instance.
