*proskoph/n: pro/skrousin. o( de\ tw=n tou= basile/ws fi/lwn e)pi\ tosou=ton e)s diafora\n h(/koi kai\ proskoph/n, w(/ste speu/dein au)tou\s peribalei=n au)to\n a)nhke/stw| tini\ kakw=|.
Notes:
Both the headword (presumably extracted from the quotation given) and the gloss are feminine nouns in the accusative singular.
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. What appears to be the main verb of the quotation, h(/koi, is in the optative mood, which might mean different things depending on the context; here it is translated as indirect discourse in secondary sequence.
