α675Ἄϊδος κυνῆ
Hades' dog-skin [helmet]
A proverb [directed] toward those concealing themselves with certain devices. For such was the dog-skin [helmet] of Hades, which Perseus used when he cut the throat of the Gorgon.
Ἄϊδος κυνῆ· παροιμία πρὸς τοὺς ἐπικρύπτοντας ἑαυτοὺς διά τινων μηχανημάτων. τοιαύτη γὰρ ἡ τοῦ ᾍδου κυνῆ, ᾗ Περσεὺς χρησάμενος τὴν Γοργόνα ἐδειροτόμησεν.
