Greek original · Adler’s text

The headword (presumably extracted from the quotation given) is present active participle, nominative singular masculine, of perialge/w.
Adler reports the same lemma in the Ambrosian Lexicon (586).
1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. [Ms A and the edition of Aemilius Portus (1630) read h(me/teron "our" instead of u(me/teron "your."] ↩
