Notes:
For the lemma Adler cites
Lexicon Ambrosianum 557.
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. It includes the accusative singular form of the headword. For the 'saying' invoked cf.
pi 806.
[2] A phrase (unattested elsewhere) involving a noun,
fuga/s, related to the headword. This noun -- but not the whole phrase -- appears in the quotation that follows.
[3] Again, the quotation (again, in Adler's view, transmitted via the
Excerpta) is unidentifiable.
[4] Adler compares
Hesychius (epsilon944) for this gloss, but the similarity is not particularly compelling.
