Τιμωρεῖν

Notes (3)

1. The headword is the present active infinitive of the verb timwre/w, presumably extracted from a literary source, but, if so, not from the quotation given, where a form of the related noun that serves as the secondary lemma occurs.
   For other forms of the same verb see tau 636 and tau 637.
1. 1= Photius sigma312 Theodoridis; cf. a scholion on Plato, Laws 10.907E, which like the present gloss is possibly related to Herennius Philo, On different meanings of words tau175. a)nti\ tou=, ("meaning") is lacking, Adler reports, in ms A. ↩
2. 2According to Adler, Gaisford said that Valckenaer attributed this quotation to Aelian, but Bernhardy recognized that Valckenaer was referring to tau 636 and assigned this quotation verisimilius ("more probably") to Priscus. Bornmann makes it fr. 63 of Priscus. Since the subject-matter here most probably pertains to the assassination of Flavius Aetius (cf. n.3 below), timwro/s might be a tacit reference to Petronius Maximus, who is reported by John of Antioch↗ (fr.201.4-5 FHG, now 293.1-2 Roberto) to have taken revenge upon the emperor Valentinian III when Valentinian refused to appoint him to Aetius' position of patrician. For more information regarding this episode, see the Bibliography below. ↩
3. 3Adler reports that *)aeti/ou is a later copyist's addition in ms A. For another reference to "the murder of Aetius" (to\n fo/non *)aeti/ou), see theta 389, especially n. 3. ↩
