Notes:
[1] The headword is feminine accusative plural of this adjective, presumably extracted from the quotation given (though see also e.g. Apollonius Rhodius,
Argonautica 1.295). The glosses are paralleled in other lexica and in the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 13.97 (where the genitive singular occurs).
[2]
Greek Anthology 6.270.3-4 (
Nicias: addressed to the goddess of childbirth). Read
oi(= "her" instead of the Suda's
toi "you".
[3] cf. the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 21.281.
