Notes:
[1] The headword is aorist active infinitive of
tolma/w. For the glossing cf. generally
tau 741.
[2]
Plato,
Laws 872E (which has neuter
tou=to, not masculine
tou=ton, and present tense
a)poktei/nei instead of
Plato's imperfect or aorist
a)pe/kteinen: see web address 1).
[3] Taken to refer to
Plato,
Laws 661A (where however the verb is
tolmw=| as an optative, not the Suda's participle. Porson's edition of
Photius reads
tolmw=, but Theodoridis notes Naber's correction to the optative). Up to this point, the entry =
Photius,
Lexicon tau363, where other references are cited for the initial glossing.
[4] An approximation of
Aristophanes,
Peace 182-4 (web address 2), quoted here to illustrate the adjective
tolmhro/s (
tau 742) rather than the headword verb; cf.
mu 1027.
