*pepiqhme/nos: pepiqh/sas, qarrh/sas. kai\ *pepoiqw/s, qarrw=n.

Perfect participles, in the masculine nominative singular, of pei/qw (pi 1440). The first is attested only here (though Adler notes a comparable entry in the Ambrosian Lexicon); the second is common from Homer (Adler cites Iliad 2.588) onwards.
