Notes:
[1] The headword is aorist infinitive of this verb, with similar glossing in other lexica and grammars; see also the Patmos scholia on Thucydides 2.52.4 (where the aorist participle tou\s nh/santas occurs in Thuc.'s account of how Athenian burial practises were disrupted and degraded by the plague).
[2] Same glossing in other lexica (references at Photius nu197 Theodoridis); evidently quoted from somewhere.
