Headword: *(upozugiw/dhs a)/nqrwpos
Adler number: upsilon,495
Translated headword: a man burdened, a man under a burden
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] one doing something not out of his own intention and eagerness, but because of the command of others, exactly like the beasts of burden. One might also say 'a deed burdened'.[1] Aristophanes [sc. uses the phrase].
"And Apollo bore witness to these things in the name of the god-inspired love."[2]
Greek Original:
*(upozugiw/dhs a)/nqrwpos: o( mh\ e)k th=s e(autou= proaire/sews kai\ proqumi/as ti pra/ttwn, a)ll' e)k th=s e(te/rwn keleu/sews, w(/sper kai\ ta\ u(pozu/gia. ei)/pois d' a)\n kai\ u(pozugiw=des pra=gma. *)aristofa/nhs. kai\ tau=ta u(pe\r th=s e)nqe/ou filo/thtos e)martu/rhsen o( *)apo/llwn.
Notes:
The headword phrase is Comica adespota fr. 915 Kock, now 547 K.-A.
Identical entries (apart from the Aelian quotation) in Phrynichus, Praeparatio sophistica, Photius' Lexicon, Etymologicum Magnum and as a proverb in Michael Apostolius.
[1] Aristophanes fr. 731 Kock (751 K.-A.).
[2] Aelian fr. 203d Domingo-Forasté (202 Hercher). As Küster pointed out, these words have no relevance to u(pozugiw/dhs. Bernhardy suggested supplying a headword u(poqermanqei/s, as a link with upsilon 496.
