*gegannume/nos: e)pagallo/menos. pw=s de\ a)nh\r basilei/w| tu/fw| e)k pai/dwn kai\ kolakei/a| pollh=| gegannume/nos di/aita/n te laxw\n barbarwta/thn ou(/tw diateqh=nai.
Notes:
The headword participle purports to be extracted from the quotation given, but see next note.
[1] An approximation of Agathias, Histories 2.28, on Chosroes. See in full at chi 418, with other changes from the original. (Common to both Suda entries, though, is that the participle transmitted as gegannume/nos should be geganwme/nos; cf. gamma 88.)
