[Meaning] I was.
*)/hi+a: u(ph=rxon.
This trisyllabic form with iota should be the first person singular, imperfect, of
ei)=mi, not of
ei)mi/ (Smyth ยง773, p. 212: web address 1). The mistake comes from a scholion on
Homer,
Iliad 5.808, where
h)=a should be read (Homeric text at web address 2). Correct in
Hesychius eta247,
Photius (
Lexicon eta83) and elsewhere.
For the glossing cf.
eta 120.
