Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

Zōpyrus, i, m., = Ζώπυρος.

  1. I. A celebrated physiognomist, Cic. Fat. 5, 10; id. Tusc. 4, 37, 80.
  2. II. A Persian noble, who mutilated himself and thereby helped to conquer Babylon, Just. 1, 10, 15.
  3. III. A rhetorician, Quint. 3, 6, 3.
    Hence, perh.,
      1. 1. Zōpyrion, Lucil. ap. Non. p. 210, 28.
      2. 2. Zōpyriātim, adv., in the manner of Zopyrus, Lucil. ap. Non. p. 455, 17.
