Greek Original:*kolou/ei: xreokopei=, e)lattoi=. o(rw=n tou\s pai=das e)kdiaitwme/nous, tou\s de\ stratiw/tas polla\ kaka\ drw=ntas a)ph=re, tou\s me\n i(/na e)pirrw/sh|, tou\s de/, kolou/shtai.
Notes:
[1] The headword is third person singular, present indicative active, of the verb
kolou/w (cf.
kappa 1949). Same or similar glossing in other lexica (see the references at
Photius kappa900 Theodoridis), and cf. also the
scholia to
Homer,
Odyssey 8.211, from where it is very probably quoted.
[2] Quotation not identified by Adler, but Favuzzi [see under
delta 654] 225-226 now points to close similarities with
Cassius Dio 76 (77).11 (= vol.III pp.365-366 Boissonade) on Septimius
Severus. Favuzzi further argues that this material comes direct from Dio, not via epitomators.
