Headword: *)w|dhko/s
Adler number: omega,20
Translated headword: swollen
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning something] inflamed, puffed up.[1] "For [he] restrains a character swollen by wealth, demonstrating the good fortune on either side; and [he] raises up the [character] which has been overthrown by poverty and makes it able to resist being humbled by the tale which buzzes in the ears of all; [the one] by which even Xerxes was persuaded -- that Xerxes who led the great army against the Greeks."[2]
Greek Original:

Notes:
[1] The headword -- presumably, though not demonstrably, extracted from the quotation given -- is perfect active participle of oi)da/w or oi)de/w, neuter nominative/accusative singular; cf. omicroniota 30, omicroniota 37, omega 16, omega 21. For the meaning cf. Hesychius omega88.
[2] This material has been claimed for Damascius, Life of Isidore (fr. 308 Zintzen, 35 Asmus) but a TLG search shows that it actually comes from Synesius, Dio 2 (16-21).
