Notes:
[1] The headword is third-person singular, present indicative, of this verb (for which see also
pi 3204). Same glossing in other lexica (references at
Photius pi1552 Theodoridis); evidently quoted from somewhere -- perhaps
Dionysius of Halicarnassus,
Roman Antiquities 9.53.6, though more probably the much-quoted fr. 63 of
Ion of
Chios, which begins
ou) ga\r lo/gois *la/kaina purgou=tai po/lis "For not by words is the Laconian city exalted."

Damascius,
Life of Isidore fr. 36 Asmus (not in Zintzen, though cf. his fr.77).
[3] Bernhardy wished to add '
Aristotle' here.
