Notes:
[1] Likewise, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon (1577). The headword is third person singular, aorist passive, of pe/kw. It is probably extracted from the quotation given (despite Adler's paragraphing of the entry, reproduced here), though this glossing verb is not used in the scholia to the verse.
[2] Aristophanes, Clouds 1356 (web address 1), with comments from the scholia thereto; cf. epsilon 2019 and epsilon 2063.
