*pth=tai: pe/tetai. kai\ *pthtika\ zw=|a, ta\ peto/mena.
NB: the SOL headword is, wrongly, the supplementary one of the entry; it ought to be
pth=tai (on which see next note).
[1] =
Synagoge pi760,
Photius pi1475 Theodoridis; cf.
Hesychius pi4225. From commentary on
Homer,
Iliad 15.170, where
pth=tai occurs (its only attestation outside commentary and lexicography) in a meteorological image. The headword
pth=tai is subjunctive -- registered under LSJ s.v.
pe/tomai, the present glossing verb -- and Theodoridis notes with sympathy the view of Lobeck and Dindorf that the gloss, transmitted as
pe/tetai, ought actually to be
pe/thtai.
[2] Phrase probably quoted from
Aristotle or
Theophrastus (though 'animals' is usually left implicit). Addendum lacking, Adler reports, in mss AF.
