Notes:
Penia (Poverty) in Aristophanes, Plutus [Wealth] 548 (web address 1), with scholion.
The headword verb, extracted from this line, is u(pekrou/sw (as here) in the mss of Aristophanes but some modern editions (including that of Coulon and van Daele on TLG) print e)pekrou/sw on the basis of Pollux 9.139.
For the kithara see kappa 1590.
