Greek original · Adler’s text

Οἰκογενής· δοῦλος. Κανθάρου τινὸς οἰκογενής, ὃς μαστιγῶσαι ἑαυτὸν κελεύσας, ηὐτομόλησεν, ὡς ὑβρισμένος ὑπὸ τῶν δεσποτῶν.

Notes (2)

  1. For this headword see already omicroniota 64.
  2. 1cf. omicroniota 79. ↩
  3. 2Quotation unidentifiable. (Adler suggests Aelian.) The active participle 'ordered' is suspect. ↩
