Greek Original:*daulo/n: to\ dasu/. kai\ *dauli/a korw/nh, h( a)hdw/n. toute/stin h( dasei=a.
Notes:
[1] The headword is neuter nominative/accusative singular of this adjective, presumably quoted from somewhere. Same or similar glossing elsewhere.
[2] cf. (e.g.)
Hesychius delta325,
Zenobius 3,14. But the explanation is misconceived: the "Daulian crow" was Procne (
pi 1475), from
Daulis (in Phocis), who became a nightingale.
