Οὐκ ἄλλως ποιεῖται

Notes (1)

1. The headword phrase as transmitted employs the present indicative middle/passive, third person singular, of the contract verb poie/w, I make, do, act); see LSJ s.v. Nevertheless, it has been taken to be generated by Plato, Phaedrus 232A (web address 1): Phaedrus lectures Socrates that a lover is proud to show publicly that he has not toiled (pepo/nhtai: perfect indicative middle/passive, third person singular, of pone/w, I perform through toil; see LSJ s.v.) in vain for his newfound passion. See further, next note.
1. 1The Suda's entry is identical to that in Photius' Lexicon (omicron630 Theodoridis), except that the latter transmits ponei=tai, present indicative middle/passive, third person singular, of pone/w; cf. Timaeus, Platonic Lexicon omicron998a11 and Synagoge 920a. The scholia to Plato, Phaedrus 232A, provide essentially the same gloss. ↩
