*lesxhnei/a: u(/bris. kai\ *lesxhnw/ths, o( u(bristh/s.
Both of the words presented and glossed here are related to
le/sxh (
lambda 308,
lambda 309); the glossing -- also, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon -- interprets both of them surprisingly harshly. See also
omicron 343.
[1] Rare word, quoted perhaps from [
Plato],
Axiochus 369D (where it appears in the genitive case).
[2] Manuscripts of the Suda read
lesxhno/ths or
lesxhni/ths, but on the basis of
Theognostus and the
Ambrosian Lexicon Bernhardy proposed (and Adler adopted) the reading
lesxhnw/ths (best attested as
Diogenes Laertius' favoured word for a philosopher's pupil: 1.43, 2.4-5).
