Vetting Status: high

Greek Original:
*)esxhmatisme/nos: o( prospoihto\n tro/pon e)/xwn kai\ dokw=n ei)=nai ko/smios: w(s para\ *lusi/a| e)n tw=| pro\s *ti/mwna: oi( d' a)lazoneu/ontai me\n *ti/mwni paraplhsi/ws kai\ e)sxhmatisme/noi perie/rxontai, w(/sper ou(=tos.
Notes:
The headword is perfect middle/passive participle of the verb sxhmati/zw (cf. generally sigma 1785). Here in the masculine nominative singular, it has evidently been generated by the corresponding plural in the quotation given.
