Notes (2)
- 1Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. (There is no obvious basis for Valckenaer's attribution of it, noted by Adler, to Aelian. Adler also notes Bernhardy's view that the name Libania is corrupt.) ↩
- 2The headword verb, a pluperfect middle of
u(pa/gw , third person singular, is here glossed with the aorist middle of the same verb. ↩
