Notes (1)

  1. Same entry in Timaeus, Platonic Lexicon.
    cf. generally rho 303.
  2. 1Same explanations in other lexica, and cf. also the scholia to Plato, Republic 429E, where the neuter plural headword twice occurs in the genitive case. (It then occurs in the nominative/accusative, as here, in 430A.) ↩
