Same entry in the Synagoge, Lexica Segueriana 336.15, and Photius pi596 Theodoridis, and similarly already in Hesychius pi1439. The headword is the perfect middle/passive participle, neuter nominative/accusative singular, of pei/rw. It is extracted from Homer, Iliad 1.246, where the phrase -- repeated at 11.633 -- xrusei/ois h)/loisi peparme/non ("studded with golden nails") occurs; see the scholia there, and Etym. Magn. 661.21.
