Notes:
[1] Same or similar glossing in other lexica, including Apollonius' Homeric Lexicon, and cf. also the scholia to Homer, Iliad 1.436, where the headword -- accusative plural of the noun eu)nh/ -- occurs (in the 'anchor' sense). For these two senses of it see LSJ s.v.
[2] Genitive plural (presumably extracted from the quotation given) of the rare noun eu)/nion.
[3] Quotation unidentifiable (unless it is a very loose paraphrase of Appian, Civil War 5.12.117).
