Notes

Same or similar entries in other lexica; referwences at Photius pi672 Theodoridis. The headword participle (masculine accusative singular or, more probably, neuter nominative/accusative singular) must be quoted from somewhere; there are figurative instances in (e.g.) Philostratus and Synesius.
For this verb, peripti/ssw, see also pi 1121.
