Notes:
[1] Similarly in other lexica. The headword noun (
epsilon 2308) is in the accusative case and must be quoted from somewhere. Asmus included the phrase
e)pi/dosin e)pi\ a)reth=s as fr. 51 of
Damascius,
Life of Isidore; Adler disagrees; and not in Zintzen.
[2]
Damascius,
Life of Isidore fr. 286 Zintzen (166 Asmus); cf.
kappa 710.
[3] cf.
Phrynichus,
Ecloga fr. 85 Lobeck;
Thomas Magister 290.2 Ritschl. It is not clear (from LSJ s.v.) what sense or senses of the noun this opinion refers to.
