Notes:
[1] The first of these glossing terms, literally 'word-battle', is uncommon, and the gloss as a whole sounds an odd (and presumably unconscious) echo of 1 Timothy 6.4: 'concerning investigations and arguments, out of which comes envy, strife, etc.'.
[2] Quotation (and individual) unidentifiable, but cf. generally Polybius 21.16.5.
