Notes (1)

  1. The headword is presumably (though not demonstrably) extracted from the quotation.
    For a noun related to this verb see pi 2582.
  2. 1Quotation unidentifiable. (Adler tentatively attributed it to Symeon Metaphrastes.) The second e(auto/n, despite Adler's punctuation, is surely part of the explanatory gloss. ↩
