Τούτῳ τῷ λόγῳ χρήσαιτο ἄν τις ἐπ' ἐκείνων τῶν ἀνθρώπων οἳ παραδόξως ἀλαζονεύονται, μηδὲ τὰ κοινὰ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις ἐπιτελεῖν δυνάμενοι → One would use this fable for those who give themselves unreasonable airs, but can't handle everyday life (Aesop 40)

Greek (Liddell-Scott)

ἐπιγονάτιον: τό, τετράγωνον χρυσοκέντητον ὕφασμα ὅπερ κρεμῶσιν ἐκ τῆς ζώνης ἐπὶ τοῦ δεξιοῦ γόνατος οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς ὅταν λειτουργῶσιν· ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ συνήθως εἶναι ἀπεικονισμένη ἡ βάπτισις ἢ ἡ ἀνάστασις τοῦ Σωτῆρος ἢ ἄλλο τι. Ἐπιγονάτιον δύναται νὰ φέρωσι λειτουργοῦντες οὐ μόνον ἀρχιερεῖς, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἀρχιμανδρῖται, οἰκονόμοι καὶ πρωθιερεῖς. Ἴδε Λειτουργικὴν ἐν τόπῳ.
