Notes:
[1] The headword, presumably extracted from the first quotation given, is aorist active infinitive of
paralu/w; cf.
pi 394.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpts made for Constantine Porphyrogenitus) unidentifiable.
[3] De Boor (below) doubted that this quotation -- again transmitted, in Adler's view, from the
Excerpta -- was from Theophylact Simocatta; and it too is unidentifiable via the TLG.
