Translation

[Meaning they] sparing.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Πεφεισμένοι· φειδόμενοι.

Betacode
*pefeisme/noi: feido/menoi. 

Notes

  1. Masculine nominative plurals: the perfect participle of fei/domai (phi 248), glossed with the present participle of the same verb. Adler reports a similar ('cf.') entry in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
    The headword is evidently quoted from somewhere; attested possibilities include Lucian, Galen, and (twice) Cassius Dio.
