Notes (1)
- 1The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is present participle, masculine nominative singular, of the verb
paragge/llw ; cf. pi 306, pi 307. That said, the entry presents multiple problems as it stands. First and foremost,paragge/llwn does not lend itself readily to the senses ascribed to it here; and the (unidentifiable) quotation designed to illustrate it seems to be corrupt. (Adler's apparatus notes a lacuna, in ms F, after the firsttoi=s , as well as other variants.) ↩
