Notes:
[1] The headword is the nominative plural of the noun
eu)ma/reia; cf.
epsilon 3574,
epsilon 3575, and see generally LSJ s.v. Evidently quoted from somewhere: same or similar glossing in other lexica, and cf. also a scholion on
Sophocles,
Trachiniae 193, where the dative singular occurs (web address 1).
[2] This quotation from an unidentifiable source contains the neuter of the related adjective
eu)marh/s; cf.
epsilon 3577. A similar maxim appears again at
pi 1797.
