Note:
The gloss breaks down the composite headword into its constituent parts, then illustrates it with a quotation from the
Greek Anthology (6.120.6, already at
epsilon 3652). The excerpted epigram, attributed to
Leonidas of
Tarentum, concerns a cicada resting on the spear of Athena; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 136); (vol. II, 389); and further extracts from this epigram at
epsilon 3082,
zeta 8,
kappa 1294, and
pi 2981.
