Note:
[1] This is the form of words also found in Harpokration s.v. (from which the present entry derives), and orthodoxy construes it as Aeschin. 1.104. For an argument that "Aeschines" is an error for "Andocides", and the correct reference therefore Andocides 1.110, see D. Whitehead, "Harpocrationiana", Eikasmos 8 (1997) 157-64, at 159-60.
