*dra=|: poiei=. h)\ poriei=.
The headword can be either present indicative or present subjunctive active (third person singular) of the verb
dra/w. The two glosses offered here represent both of these possibilites. On the range of meaning of
dra/w see LSJ at web address 1, and for another form of the same verb see
delta 1489.
[1] =
Synagoge delta358,
Photius delta737; probably from commentary to
Aristophanes,
Knights 102, where the headword appears as a present indicative.
[2] Probably from commentary to
Aristophanes,
Knights 1019, where the headword appears as a present subjunctive in a conditional construction referring to the future (which explains why the gloss is in the future tense). 'Furnish' is not a common meaning of
dra/w, but again, the context clarifies: in the
Aristophanes passage the general action term
dra/w stands in for the more specific action of 'furnishing', which is expressed in the same line by the very word used here as a gloss,
poriei= ('will furnish').
