Notes:
[1] i.e. in Doric dialect. In fact
ka/twqe is found outside Doric, in Middle/New Comedy (e.g.
Eubulus fr. 16.1 Kock [15.1 K.-A.],
Alexis fr. 128.3 Kock [133.3 K.-A.]), as well as in Doric (e.g.
Theocritus,
Idylls 4.44).
[2] A misquotation of
Pindar,
Pythian 4.102-3 (web address 1):
a)gro/qe ["from the countryside"] should be
a)ntro/qe ["from the cave"]. Khariklo was the centaur Chiron's wife, and Philyra his mother.
