This entry initially baffled Adler, who confined herself to reporting that it appears only in ms F. But in her consolidated addenda and corrigenda she pointed out (following Maas) that the quotation here is an approximation of what Dionysus says -- about fetching
Euripides from the underworld -- in
Aristophanes,
Frogs 68:
k'oudei/s ge m' a)\n pei/seien a)nqrw/pwn to\ mh\ ou)k e)lqei=n e)p' e)kei=non. See web address 1.
The point of the lexicographer's comment is then obscured by the several possible senses of the noun
diairesis. Grammatical? (But
k'oudei/s is crasis, not diairesis.) I tentatively construe
diairesis as
hairesis, "choice", i.e. an (erroneous) attempt to gloss Dionysus' "him".
For
Sophocles see generally
sigma 815; for
Euripides,
epsilon 3695.
