Notes

  1. Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius pi205 Theodoridis. The headword is present active participle of parabu/w, feminine nominative singular. It must be quoted from somewhere -- very probably from Aristophanes of Byzantium's remarks (transmitted by several later writers: Theodoridis specifies Basil of Caesarea PG 29.193a) about a she-bear treating her wounds in this way.
    For a related term see pi 301, pi 302.
