Note 4 — THE ELEVENTH BOOK OF HOMER’S ODYSSEYS

George Chapman translation

Γήπᾳ ὑπὸ λιπαρῳ̑. Which all translate senectute sub molli. The epithet λιπαρῳ̑; not of λιπαρὸς, viz, pinguis, or λιπαρω̑ς, pinguiter, but λιπαρω̑ς signifying flagitanter orando. To which pious age is ever altogether addicted.
