Notes

  1. The headword is an epic present indicative, in the third person plural, of u(fa/w (that is, it represents the contracted form u(fw=si, but is spelled to fill the metrical space of u(fa/ousi). It is glossed with the third person plural of the common verb u(fai/nw (upsilon 704). The same gloss appears in other lexica and in a scholion on Homer, Odyssey 7.105, where the headword occurs (web address 1).
