Notes:
[1] [Adler's text, reproduced here, has a rare misprint:
kata\ to\n w)/mwn. Bernhardy (1853 edition, available on Google Books) reads
kata\ tw=n w)/mwn with the article in the genitive plural agreeing with the noun.] Same glossing in other lexica, including Apollonius'
Homeric Lexicon, and in a scholion on
Homer,
Iliad 15.352 (where the headword adverb occurs: web address 1).
