Notes (2)

  1. Noun related to the verb r(e/w.
  2. 1This gloss does not seem appropriate; Jonathan Toup (1713-1785) conjectured fora/ "motion, impulse," for the transmitted fqora/. But see under nu 144: h( u(peranabai/nousa r(oh/n, th\n katafqora/n. ↩
  3. 2Hesychius glosses the accusative of the headword, r(oh/n (presumably quoted from somewhere), with r(u/sin. ↩
