Notes (4)

  1. 1The headword is masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of the adjective toro/s. (No equivalent entry in other lexica.) It must be quoted from somewhere; extant possibilities begin with two in Aeschylus. ↩
  2. 2The corresponding adverb, identically glossed in the Synagoge and Photius. ↩
  3. 3Additional glossing not in the corresponding entries (cf. Hesychius s.v. kaqarw=s). ↩
  4. 4Cassius Dio 75.12.1. ↩
