Notes

  1. The headword phrase is Comica adespota fr. 724 Kock, but not in K.-A.; Photius, Lexicon tau258 Theodoridis, taken to come from Aelius Dionysius (tau15), with the single-word gloss '[a] saying'. (The Suda's grammatical gloss, a marginal addition in one manuscript, appears to think that its opening word is th/nde rather than simple th/n.)
