Notes:
[1] The headword is the comparative of the adjective
stegano/s (
sigma 1020,
sigma 1021), here in the neuter nominative/accusative singular or masculine accusative singular. Similarly glossed in other lexica, it must be quoted from somewhere -- possibly (though not necessarily) the quotation about to be given, where it has the transferred sense (cf. LSJ s.v., II.4) more/rather reserved. The second and third quotations contain the superlative of this adjective.
[2]
Greek Anthology 5.216.3 (
Agathias Scholasticus), the poet's advice for men in love.
[3] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable; cf.
alphaiota 106,
delta 791,
kappa 2036.
[4]
Aelian fr. 178 Domingo-Forasté (175 Hercher); cf.
alpha 4389.
