Θυλήγματα· πέμματα, ἀπαρχάς, ἄλφιτα, ἃ ἔμισγον οἴνῳ καὶ ἐλαίῳ, εἰς θυσίαν ἀναφέροντες.

Notes

  1. Neuter plural and, as the glosses show, accusative case; quoted from Aristophanes, Peace 1040 (web address 1), which has qulh/mata rather than the present oddity, qulh/gmata.
    cf. epsilon 1138; and, for 'sweetmeats', pi 957.
