A). Troy, whether of the city, 'Troy-town', Il. 9.46 , etc.; or the country, the Troad, Τροίην ἐριβώλακα 3.74 , etc.:—also Τροΐα as trisyll., Sapph. Supp. 5.9 , Scol. 17 , 18 , dub. in S. Aj. 1190 (lyr., v. ad fin.); Dor. Τρωΐα Pi. N. 2.14 , 3.60 , A. Ch. 363 (lyr.); contr. Τρῴα Pi. O. 2.81 (cj. Boeckh for Τροίας):—hence Τροίᾱθεν, Ion. -ηθεν, from Troy, Od. 3.257 , etc.; ἀπὸ Τροίηθεν Il. 24.492 ; Dor. Τρωΐᾱθεν Pi. N. 7.41 :—Τροίανδε, Ion. -ηνδε, to Troy, Il. 7.390 , etc.; Dor. Τρῴανδε Pi.

II). a game, the Lat. Troja (Verg. A. 5.602 ), Τροίαν ἱππεῦσαι D.C. 59.7 , cf. 11 .[ Zenod. and Aristarch. scanned Τροίη (Troy) as disyll. everywhere in Hom., but Aristarch. scanned (and wrote)(πόλιν) Τροΐην as trisyll. in Il. 1.129 , Od. 11.510 , understanding 'a Trojan city (city of the Troad)', v. Sch. Il. l.c.; cf. Τρώϊος: Τροίη (-ης -ῃ -ην) stands at the beginning of the line in the phrase Τροίῃ ἐν εὐρείῃ Il. 24.256 , 494 , Od. 1.62 , 4.99 , 5.307 ; in the other 82 occurrences the trisyll. form is admitted by the metre, but should perh. not be restored, as disyll. Τροίη (-ης etc.) is almost inevitably so placed in a hexam.:—codd. Pi. (in contrast to codd. Hom.) have Τρωΐα N. 4.25 , al., and Τροΐα ib. 2.14 , al. (with either spelling the word may begin with ^ ^), cf. Eust. 65.22 .]
