Notes:
[1] The headword is dative plural of
pi/lhsis, evidently quoted from somewhere. Same glossing in other lexica (references at
Photius pi879 Theodoridis), and cf. a scholion on
Plato,
Laws 8.849C (where the genitive singular
pilh/sews occurs); and generally
pi 1596.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
[3]
Greek Anthology 6.199.1-2,
Antiphilus of
Byzantium (which has genitive
fi/lhs instead of the Suda's
fi/lh). On this epigram, the poet's dedication after a journey, see Gow and Page vol. I (100-101), vol. II (127-128), and further excerpts at
eta 586 and
omicron 685.
