Notes:
[1] Same or similar glossing in other lexica. The headword phrase must be quoted from somewhere (other than the quotation given, which has a different one involving 'shame'). Adler did not identify it, but it is surely
Homer,
Iliad 10.238; cf. Latte on
Hesychius s.v. and Theodoridis on
Photius s.v.
[2] Evidently from an historical account, but not readily identifiable. Adler called Bernhardy's nomination of
Cassius Dio 'rash' and preferred John of
Antioch. More attractive -- given
Plutarch,
Marcellus 30, on Hannibal's show of respect to the dead M. Claudius Marcellus -- is
Polybius (Mor. Mueller); cf., along the same lines, Favuzzi's suggested attribution to
Aelian (see under
epsilon 3944).
