*forh=es: oi( fe/rontes.

The headword is epic nominative plural of foreu/s, extracted from Homer: see below. Same glossing in Hesychius (phi764), the Synagoge (phi179) and Photius' Lexicon (phi269 Theodoridis), and cf. also the A scholia to Homer, Iliad 18.566, where the headword occurs (and is glossed as oi( fe/rontes tou\s bo/truas "those carrying the grape clusters").
