Notes:
The long headword phrase is from
Aristophanes,
Knights 691-692, but the comments belong to the following line (693), which reads (in part)
w(s dh\ katapio/meno/s me ("as if he's going to swallow me up").
The 'Paphlagonian' is Kleon (
kappa 1731); cf.
pi 826. On the strange noun
kolo/kuma, see
kappa 1944.
