Guard.[1]
In the
Epigrams: "hairnet, purple protector of hair ..."[2]
And elsewhere: "Arkhaianassa the courtesan [from
Kolophon] is mine; sweet passion sits even on her wrinkles."[3]
[1] Accusative singular of
ῥύτωρ , quoted from somewhere (possibly though not necessarily the quotation which follows); cf.
rho 316. Related to
ἐρύω (B) in LSJ.

Greek Anthology 6.207.2, quoted already at
kappa 1273.
[3] The abridged beginning of an epigram attributed to
Plato (
pi 1707): Greek Anthology 7.217.1-2 =
Diogenes Laertius 3.31 =
Athenaeus,
Deipnosophists 13.589C (13.56 Kaibel). (For
Kolophon see generally
kappa 1956.) The adjective associated with 'passion' varies between these three versions. Also, the Suda's
ἐπιρρυτίδων́ should be
ἐπὶ ῥυτίδων , i.e. two words, and the noun is not related to the present headword; cf.
rho 305,
rho 318.
