Ἐπιβύσας

having stopped up

[Meaning] having filled full, having freighted. As Homer [says]: "stopped-up with adorned thread". Aristophanes in Wealth [writes]: "having stopped up the mouth [sic] of the orators with coins".

Ἐπιβύσας· ἐμπλήσας, γεμίσας. ὡς Ὅμηρος· νήματος ἀσκητοῖο βεβυσμένον. Ἀριστοφάνης Πλούτῳ· τὸ στόμ' ἐπιβύσας κέρμασι τῶν ῥητόρων.
