μασχᾰλίζω: (μασχάλη) θέτω ὑπὸ τὰς μασχάλας· ἐντεῦθεν, ἀκρωτηριάζω πτῶμα, ἐπειδὴ οἱ δολοφόνοι ἐνόμιζον ὅτι ἐὰν ἀποκόψαντες τὰ ἄκρα τοῦ θύματός των ἐτοποθέτουν αὐτὰ ὑπὸ τὰς μασχάλας ἤθελον ἀποφύγει τὴν ἐκδίκησιν, Αἰσχύλ. Χο. 439, Σοφ. Ἠλ. 445, Ἀπολ. Ροδ. Δ. 447· καὶ ἴδε ἀκρωτηριάζω. ― Παρ’ Ἡσυχ. καὶ μασχαλίττω (ἀντίγραφ. -ήττω).
