Notes:
[1] The headword is future active, third person singular, of e)kti/nw (cf. epsilon 655, epsilon 657). It might be extracted from the quotation given, though probably not: Hesychius epsilon1727 has just the present headword and gloss, with no quotation, and Latte claims the headword as quoted from the Septuagint (Job 2.4: e)ktei/sei there).
[2] Menander Protector fr. 19.1 Blockley (174-175), in 576 the Turkish khan Turxanthus delivers a sharp rebuke to Roman envoy Valentinus. On Turxanthus see PLRE IIIb s.v. Tourxanthus. On Valentinus see PLRE IIIb s.v. Valentinus(3). See further excerpts from this fragment at epsilon 719, epsiloniota 208, omicron 84, pi 2799, and sigma 413.
