Headword: Ὥρα
Adler number: omega,149
Translated headword: season, youth
Vetting Status: low
Translation:
Beauty, turning-point of time, symmetry.[1] But with a smooth breathing [it means] concern.[2] Hence we call ὀλίγωρος the one who has little concern.[3] Plato [writes]: "I am leading and for these ribs you have no concern."[4]
Aelian [writes]: "a woman notable for beauty, prudent in behavior ...".[5]
Greek Original:
Ὥρα: κάλλος, καιροῦ τροπή, εὐμορφία. ψιλῶς δὲ φροντίς. ἔνθεν ὀλίγωρον λέγομεν τὸν ὀλίγην φροντίδα ἔχοντα. Πλάτων: ὁδῶ καί: περὶ τῶνδε πλευρῶν οὐδεμίαν ὤραν ἔχεις. Αἰλιανός. γυνὴ τὴν ὥραν διαπρεπής, σώφρων τὸν τρόπον.
Notes:
[1] cf. omega 151, omega 152, omega 153, omega 156, omega 166.
[2] cf. omega 150. Same remarks in Hesychius, Lexicon omega281, with a slight textual discrepancy (καιρός, κάλλος, τροφή ).
[3] Cf. omicron 164, omicron 165, omicron 166.
[4] Plato Comicus fr.2 Kock (here, it seems, textually corrupt: the quotation begins at περὶ τῶνδε πλευρῶν , and the ὁδῶ καί before it is obscure; perhaps Ἀδώνιδι , Gaisford - cf. upsilon 341).
[5] Aelian fr.12a Domingo-Forasté (part of 12 Hercher).
