Notes
- Same entry in the Synagoge (rho45) and Photius' Lexicon (rho139 Theodoridis). The headword (evidently quoted from somewhere) is third person singular, present indicative active, of the verb
r(oqe/w . By its sense, the gloss would seem to be fromo(rma/w , though its form appears to belong too(rme/w "lie at anchor." Manuscript G, as reported by Adler, and Hesychius in fact reado(rma=| ; Theodoridis obelizes the-ei= in Photius.
cf. generally rho 216, rho 218, and esp. rho 220.
