Greek original · Adler’s text

Παραπέμπω· αἰτιατικῇ. παραπέμπει πλωτῆρας σὺν εὐθυμίᾳ. καὶ κατὰ περιποίησιν δοτικῇ. μᾶλλον δὲ κόσμον παραπέμπουσι τὸν ἐνεστῶτα τῷ μέλλοντι.

Notes (2)

  1. A marginal addition in ms. A.
  2. 1Quotation not identified by Adler but identifiable via the TLG as Gregory of Nazianzus, Orations 44.10 (PG 36.617); "it" is a dolphin. ↩
  3. 2An approximated quotation from, again, Gregory of Nazianzus (Orations 43.62). The most significant discrepancy is that the original has the feminine accusative participle parape/mpousan ('[virginity] escorting'), not the Suda's parape/mpousi ('they escort'). ↩
