Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica. The headword is aorist active infinitive of
fqa/nw (for which verb see also
phi 475,
phi 476,
phi 479,
phi 480,
phi 486,
phi 488). It is probably not extracted from the quotation given here, which the other lexica do not have; see rather
Thucydides 3.89.2 and 8.92.1, with
scholia to both.
