cf.
mu 482.
[1] cf. Apollonius'
Homeric Lexicon (110.28). As far as
e)/oiken, there are parallels in other lexica, and in
scholia on
Homer,
Iliad 1.564 and
Plato,
Republic 8.566E (in both of which passages the verb is
me/llei: web address 1 & web address 2). See also
epsilon 969, where
e)/melle is glossed with
e)w/|kei (so apparently the gloss is assigned to the wrong verb here).
[2] Also under
tau 277. See also Julian,
Misopogon 28.28-30, and Arsenius 11.10.
