Note:
The gloss breaks down the composite headword into its constituent parts, then illustrates it with a quotation from the Greek Anthology (6.120.6, already at epsilon 3652). The excerpted epigram, attributed to Leonidas of Tarentum, concerns a cicada resting on the spear of Athena; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 136); (vol. II, 389); and further extracts from this epigram at epsilon 3082, zeta 8, kappa 1294, and pi 2981.
