Greek original · Adler’s text
Στακτοῖς· τοῖς ὑγροῖς, καὶ δοκίμοις· πρὸς ἀντιδιαστολὴν τῶν ξηρῶν. Ἀριστοφάνης Πλούτῳ· οὔτε μύροισι μυρίσαι στακτοῖς, ὁπόταν νύμφην ἀγάγησθον.

- The headword adjective, extracted from the given quotation, is dative plural, as are the glosses.
- 1Aristophanes, Wealth (Plutus) 529, with comments derived from the scholia thereto. In place of the Suda's
doki/mois ('prized') one scholion hasxrisi/mois ('spreadable', 'anointable'). On 'extracted' perfumes see also sigma 997, sigma 998. ↩
