Notes (1)
- Same entry in Photius and other lexica. The headword, in the nominative plural (cf. under alpha 1774 and sigma 382), is presumably quoted from somewhere -- probably Theocritus, Idylls 15.125, to judge from scholia both there and also to Aristophanes, where Th. is mentioned. See further, next note.
- 1In the genitive singular: Aristophanes, Plutus [Wealth] 542 (web address 1: not Adler's '528'). ↩
