[1] The second and third of these glosses are also in the
Synagoge and
Photius'
Lexicon (cf.
tau 933 and, earlier,
Hesychius tau1305-1306), and also in the
scholia to
Aeschylus,
Seven Against Thebes 436, where the headword -- aorist active participle of
tre/w, masculine nominative singular -- occurs. On its special significance in
Sparta, where being a Trembler in the face of battle incurred not only dishonour but also demotion to a lower grade of citizenship, cf.
lambda 824,
omicron 752, and generally LSJ s.v. I.2; also the epigram below.
