Notes
- The perfect infinitive of
u(pisxne/omai (upsilon 439) is glossed with the aorist infinitive of the same verb (on the forms of this verb, see LSJ s.v., web address 1). The headword is presumably quoted from somewhere; extant possibilities begin with Thucydides (8.48.5) and Demosthenes (7.33).
(Entry lacking, Adler reports, in mss AF.)
