Notes:
[1]
Sophocles,
Ajax 308-9 (web address 1), with scholion. The headword is dative plural of
e)rei/pios; cf.
epsilon 2955,
epsilon 3003. For
r(iph/ see
alphaiota 85,
rho 178. (The nominative plural of it is presumably quoted from somewhere.)
[2] Adler reports the same material in the
Ambrosian Lexicon (1934). This abstract noun is otherwise unattested except here and in ps.-
Zonaras.
