Notes (2)

  1. 1See LSJ s.v., B.II.2 (but the verb is more commonly intransitive). ↩
  2. 2Dative plural of the related neuter noun poli/teuma, with the same glossing in other lexica (references at Photius pi1021 Theodoridis). Evidently quoted from somewhere -- perhaps Demosthenes 18.109 (web address 1), though there are numerous other possibilities. ↩
