Notes:
[1] The headword is neuter nominative (and accusative) plural of
u(phne/mios, presumably extracted from the quotation given (Julian [the emperor],
Orations 7.206c). See also
epsilon 2185; more about this headword at
upsilon 424,
upsilon 425,
upsilon 426.
[2] In the text of Julian,
tauti\ instead of
a)nti\: "these windy and monstrous images and shadows of the true understanding."
