Notes (2)

  1. The headword, presumably quoted from somewhere but not independently attested, is the masculine nominative plural of the adjective perirrhdh/s (sic: double rho). Same glossing in the Synagoge, Lexica Segueriana 340.6, and Photius pi749 Theodoridis, and cf. scholion on Homer, Odyssey 22.84, where the singular occurs; likewise Hesychius pi1846.
  2. 1Bernhardy conjectured oi(=on in place of oi(: "as if lying on or thrown onto wagons." ↩
  3. 2Adler reports that mss GV omit this second oi(. ↩
