Notes:
[1] Thus far, cf.
Hesychius epsilon4805,
Lexica Sequeriana 229.19,
Etymologicum Gudianum 504.2 (=
Etymologicum Magnum 449.49,
Lexicon Haimôdein 624.8); and cf.
theta 306. The glosses offered here do not seem to fit the context of the quotation very well (contrast
Hesychius epsilon4794,
scholia ad loc.) and may have been produced originally for commentary on a different passage. For the verb, see also
epsilon 2031,
epsilon 2032,
epsilon 2331.
[2] A loose paraphrase of
Thucydides 2.75.1 (Web address 1). For Archidamos cf.
