The plant; ἀσφοδελός: the place that contains it. δειελός, “of the evening,” is accented with an acute, and so too ὀβελός and μυελός. Adjectives in -ελος, of more than two syllables, having the third syllable long, are accented with a proparoxytone: ἀείδελος, εἴκελος, εὐτράπελος, πέμπελος in the old usage. But if they are tribrachic adjectives that are not compounds, they are accented with an acute: Σικελός, the ethnic name from the settler and founder of the country, from whom the country too is called Σικελία, as Κίλικες from Κίλικος, from whom also Κιλικία, as Θετταλοί from Θετταλός, from whom Θετταλία, and Φρύγες from Φρυγός, from whom Φρυγία. “Of the islanders, the natives, long ago, are called Σικελοί, Ligurians from Italy; but the immigrants are Greeks, Σικελιῶται, as Ἰταλιῶται.” στροβελός, κεφελός (?). But ζάφελος, being a compound from ζα- and ὀφέλλω, ‘I increase,’ is accented with a proparoxytone. And δέελος is the same as δῆλος. Words in -ηλος, of more than two syllables, appellatives or proper names or adjectives not having distinct feminine forms, are accented with a proparoxytone: εὔκηλος, τράχηλος, κάπηλος, κάμηλος, φάσηλος, Στύμφηλος, βέβηλος, κίβδηλος, ἐρύγμηλος, which Tyrannion incorrectly accents with an acute; for it was formed from ἐρύγω, whence the imperfect “ἤρυγεν ἑλκόμενος ἕλικι” (Il. Υ 404), ἐρύγηλος, and with pleonasm of μ, ἐρύγμηλος. Πάμηλος; Εὔζηλος, a fort of Sicily.
