*peirw=nta: peira/zonta dia\ lo/gwn.
Same entry in
Photius (pi527 Theodoridis), and almost the same in
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon; similarly elsewhere. The headword participle, probably masculine accusative singular rather than neuter plural, must be quoted from somewhere; perhaps from
Xenophon,
Memorabilia 1.2.29 (on
Critias and the young Euthydemus).
For the sexual connotation of this verb, see already
pi 1452.
[1] cf.
pi 1451.

Timaeus adds
pai=da h)\ gunai=ka, "a boy or woman".
