Greek (Liddell-Scott)

νυκτῐλαμπής: -ές, (λάμπω) ἐν Σιμων. 37 [50] κοινῶς λαμβάνεται ὡς ἐπίθ. τῆς λάρνακος τῆς Δανάης, δώματι νυκτιλαμπεῖ, δηλ. λαμπομένῳ ὑπὸ τῆς νυκτός, τουτέστι σκοτεινῷ, ἀμαυρῷ· ὁ Schneidewin ὅμως (Ἀποσπ. 50) συνάπτει τὸ νυκτιλαμπεῖ πρὸς τὸ δνόφῳ· καθ’ ἑκατέραν ἑρμηνείαν ὑπάρχει ἀντίφρασις οὐχὶ ἀσυνήθης παρὰ τοῖς λυρ. καὶ τραγ. ποιηταῖς, Ἕρμ. εἰς Αἰσχύλ. Εὐμ. 379, Erf. εἰς Σοφ. Ο. Τ. 420, Seidl. εἰς Εὐρ. Τρῳ. 566, Ι. Τ. 110. Ἐν τῇ ἐκδ. τοῦ Bergk οἱ στίχοι, ἐν οἷς ἡ λέξις νυκτιλαμπής, ἔλαβον ὅλως ἀλλοίαν μορφήν: «σὺ δ’ ἀωτεῖς· γαλαθηνῷ τ’ ἤτορι κνώσσεις ἐν ἀτερπεῖ δούρατι χαλκεογόμφῳ, νυκτὶ ἀλαμπεῖ κυανέῳ τε δνόφῳ σταλεὶς» ἀντὶ «... ἐν ἀτερπεῖ δώματι, χαλκεογόμφῳ δέ, νυκτιλαμπεῖ κτλ.»
