Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
δάκρυον. P Petr II. 14 (c. B.C. 260) μετὰ δακρύων, which Mayser, Gr. p. 268, notes must not be assigned to δάκρυ, despite the heteroclite δάκρυσιν in NT. BGU IV. 114127 # (c. B.c. 14) οἵαν γὰρ ὕβριν μοι πεπόηκεν ἐν τῷ κήπῳ Kal ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ εν, 7 ἣν δάκρυα σοὶ γράφειν, γεγραφήκειν ἂν ἀπὸ τῶν δακρύων, ‘wenn Thranen cin Brief waren” (Ed.). The noun survives still. . δακρύω survives as δακρύζω to-day, with ptc. δακρυσμένος = ““τοῦ with weeping.” It may be quoted from Pre¢sigke 373, an undated tombstone, Mdyva, [σὲ] θανοῦσίαν] πᾶσα γῆ ϑακρυσάϊτω. , δακτυλιος
