[1] This nominative plural, with the same or similar glossing in other lexica (references at
Photius alpha835 Theodoridis), is presumably quoted from somewhere; and see in any event under
sigma 1097.
[2]
Greek Anthology 6.252.3-4 (
Antiphilus), on a quince; cf.
alpha 904,
alpha 4212,
mu 934,
pi 3074. Here (as in
mu 934) the lexicographer omits after "equally-downy"
Antiphilus' "as newly-grown ones"; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 92). See also Gow and Page (vol. II, 117) and further extracts from this epigram at
kappa 2502 and
sigma 903.
[3] Comparable comment, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon (839).
