Notes (1)
- The headword is aorist active participle, masculine genitive plural, of the verb
peristefano/w , presumably extracted from the quotation given. (For its several senses, see LSJ s.v.) - 1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. Adler notes the textual discrepancy between
o)/xlois (mss AF) ando(/plois (mss GVM); she might have done better to print the latter. ↩
