Notes:
[1] The headword is imperfect, third person singular, of
e)na/gw (cf.
epsilon 1087). Apparently quoted from
Thucydides 4.21.3, the
scholia to which have the second of these glosses. (Different glossing in
Photius,
Lexicon epsilon916.)

chi 418) to pursue an attack on the city of
Edessa (cf.
epsilon 207); cf. Kaldellis (98). For additional context to Chosroes's invasion into the Roman east in 540 CE, see
