Notes:
[1] The headword, with broadly similar glossing in
Hesychius and other lexica, is the accusative singular of
kappa 1051 (where however the noun has a completely different meaning). It might be extracted from the quotation given, or equally well from
Oppian,
Halieutica 4.116; cf. the
scholia there.
[2] An approximation (and abbreviation) of
Greek Anthology 6.217.1-2, attributed to
Simonides. The next two verses are quoted at
alpha 3019. Find further extracts from this epigram at

epsilon 1196,
eta 482,

omicron 541.
