[1] The headword is aorist active participle of
e)mpri/w, masculine nominative plural; presumably extracted from the quotation given.
[2] Asmus associated this quotation (again under
kappa 818) with
Damascius,
Life of Isidore fr. 177 (
Byz. Zt. 19.280); Adler prefers to attribute it to
Aelian; Zintzen retains it for
Damascius, while noting Adler's disagreement (fr. 315).
