Notes:
[1] Likewise in
Photius. The headword, aorist infinitive of
katanwti/zomai, is perhaps though not necessarily from the quotation given (which
Photius does not have). See in any event LSJ s.v., I.
[2]
Damascius,
Life of Isidore fr. 251 Zintzen (150 Asmus); cf.
Photius Bibliotheca 346a 12-14. (For this
Plutarch -- not the biographer -- see
pi 1794.) For this applied/figurative meaning of the verb, see LSJ s.v. II.
