Notes
- The headword alone could just as easily be first person singular as third plural (imperfect of
promaxe/w ); nevertheless, the latter is likelier here if the entry derives from alpha 3397/beta 150.
For a famous epigram using the participle of this verb, see pi 3079. For a related verb, see pi 2500.
