Notes:
[1] The headword is dative singular of
fwla/s (see LSJ at web address 1), and the glossing shows that it is feminine. Likewise in
Hesychius, the
Synagoge, and
Photius'
Lexicon (phi361, where Theodoridis claims the headword as quoted from Basil of
Caesarea,
Homilies on the Hexaemeron 9.3 (PG 29.193a)).
[2] Likewise in the
Synagoge and
Photius. Perhaps from the quotation which follows (see next note), though the earlier lexica do not have it.
[3]
Babrius 82.3; cf.
epsilon 449 and
phi 718.
[4] Probably =
fwlei/a (
phi 645) in
Plutarch,
Moralia 2.971D; note LSJ s.v.
fwleu/w.
