Notes (1)

  1. The headword (presumably extracted from the quotation given) is aorist middle of proi/hmi, third person singular. The subsequent glosses, oddly, are in the future tense. For the verb, cf. e.g. pi 2408, pi 2421, pi 2422, pi 2429.
  2. 1Quotation (transmitted via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable as a whole, though the subordinate clause has parallels. ↩
