Notes
- A marginal addition, Adler reports, in ms A.
The entry appears in a seemingly superior version in the Lexica Segueriana, de syntacticis 166.5-7. There is the same (questionable) gloss for the initial present indicative active, first person singular, but the illustrative quotation (i) has an imperfect verb in the second clause in place of the present tense given here and (ii) is attributed by the lexicographer to Cassius Dio, Book 22 (= fr. 2.7 Boissevain).
For other forms of the same verb see pi 441 to pi 444, pi 447, pi 448, pi 657 and pi 658.
