Notes (1)

  1. 1The headword is intransitive aorist participle of prosfu/w, masculine nominative singular. Same glossing in the Synagoge, Lexica Segueriana 352.8, Photius pi1381 Theodoridis, and a scholion on Homer, Odyssey 12.433, where it occurs (web address 1). Hesychius pi3935 has the same gloss and also periplakei/s "entwined." ↩
