Notes (2)
- 1Tentatively identified by Adler as proverbial; in any event, obscure. The headword, as accented, is attested only as the vocative of
ui(o/s ("son"), not obviously what is intended here. Something is probably missing. ↩ - 2Imperfect of
u(/ei "it rains," cf. upsilon 121, upsilon 126, upsilon 127. Likewise or similarly in other lexica (references at Photius upsilon29 Theodoridis); quoted from Homer, Iliad 12.25. ↩
