Notes:
The primary headword "liver" is unglossed. (The SOL headword, mistakenly, is the secondary one, "liver-inspecting".) On the declension of
h)=par, see
h)=mar at
eta 283 and
skw=r at
sigma 690.
[1] 'Persians' is a (rare) emendation by Adler for what the mss give as
*Pe/rsh|, there being no such entry for the latter. However,
pi 1367 is not an appropriate cross-reference; see rather (as Adler notes)
mu 9.
[2] Perhaps, Adler suggests, from a scholion on Gregory of Nazianzus.
