Notes

  1. = Synagoge pi738, Photius pi1421 (where however Theodoridis prints the two glosses as adverbs); cf. Hesychius pi4075 (and pi4074). Probably from commentary to Homer (cf. e.g. the scholia to Iliad 1.150, with proqu/mws), where the headword adjective, nominative singular masculine (or feminine), occurs frequently.
