Hesychius and other lexica.

Greek Anthology 6.268.3 (Mnasalces), Cleonymus--evidently a hunter--dedicates a statue to Artemis, cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 140); (vol. II, 401-402); and further excerpts from this epigram at
epsilon 107,
epsiloniota 233,
mu 327, and
upsilon 302. The Suda lexicographer is inaccurate here; the tribute to the goddess is conveyed in the second person, and, as Gow and Page note (vol. I, 140), here the finite verb should be transmitted as
bai/neis (
you stride, walk, come).

epsilon 1397.
