Greek Original:

Notes:
= Synagoge pi832 (Lexica Segueriana 357.14), and Photius pi1541 Theodoridis, except that those lexica (as well as Hesychius pi4377) have the headword as puo/n, which is either the accusative form of the current headword (with a different accent) or a neuter nominative/accusative variant. (Theodoridis presents it as non-comittal *PUON.) Consequently, commentary on the Aristophanes passage quoted (see note 1 below) is probably not the source of this entry -- though it may have inspired the form of the lemma -- and the glossing shows confusion with pi 3178 (q.v.).
[1] Aristophanes, Peace 1150.
