Notes (2)

  1. 1The headword is present middle infinitive of proi+/hmi, presumably extracted from the quotation given; cf. pi 2394, pi 2408, pi 2417, pi 2422, pi 2426, pi 2549. ↩
  2. 2Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpts made for Constantine Porphyrogenitus) unidentifiable. ↩
