Headword: *)epi/sph|

Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning he/she/it] will follow.
Greek Original:

Note:
The headword, a third person singular usually analyzed as aorist subjunctive, is idiosyncratically glossed here as a future indicative. The likeliest source is commentary to Homer, where forms of the verb are frequent (e.g. Iliad 2.359: web address 1), but the existing scholia and other lexica and commentaries treat the word differently: so e.g. Hesychius epsilon5210 and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon (1628a).
