Notes:
cf. generally Hesychius epsilon5165, epsilon5166; more fully Etymologicum Magnum 363.54-56; and see sigma 291, sigma 386. The headword is presumably quoted from somewhere, perhaps from ancient comment on Aristophanes, Wasps 704, where e)pisi/ch| occurs.
[1] This last form should presumably be the future, si/sw.
