Plu.2.48a.    2 any young animal, as a young crocodile, Hdt.2.68; of young children, A.Ch.256, 501, E.Alc.403 (lyr.), al., Pl.Lg.776a: fem., ἦν νεοττὸς καὶ νέα (sc. Lais) Epicr.3.15: in pl., young bees, X. Oec.7.34, Arist.HA624a22; Ἄρεως ν., of the cock, Ar.Av.835 (also ironically, of a person, Pl.Com.104): collective, ἵππου ν. the horse's brood, A.Ag.825.    3 yolk of an egg, Arist.HA565a3, Orac. ap.
