Notes (2)
- The headword, attested only here, is the present active participle, feminine nominative (and vocative) singular, of the verb
suneyia/zw , a variant ofsuneyia/w , I play along with, together; see generally LSJ s.v. It is evidently generated from the quotation given, where the uncontracted formsuneyia/ousa of the aforementioned verb occurs [In her critical apparatus Adler reports that ms A lacks this entry.] - 1The gloss is the present active participle, feminine nominative (and vocative) singular, of the compound verb
sumpai/zw , I play along with like a child, I sport along with; see generally LSJ s.v. ↩ - 2Greek Anthology 5.288.1 (Paulus Silentiarius), on an obsessive passion. Khariklo (Chariclo) was the name of two characters in Greek mythology: the wife of Chiron the centaur (cf. kappa 1107 n. 2) and the mother of T(e)iresias (tau 453). [In her critical apparatus Adler reports that mss FG here transmit the variant spelling of the participle.] ↩
