The headword phrase is presumably extracted from the quotation given.
cf. generally epsilon 1514.
[1] Quotation unidentifiable. Isaac Casaubon (1559-1614) attributed it to Polybios; it appears as [Polybius] fr. 146 in Büttner-Wobst (533); and Adler suggested Aelian instead. Büttner-Wobst, without offering any explanatory notes, remains reluctant to attribute the fragment to Polybius (ibid.).
