Justin:
Check the spelling again; the perfect of LEGW comes from another verb,
EIRW, and is EIRHKA
Why not go to http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/lexica.html
and choose either of the Greek dictionaries, and enter LEGW and scroll down
until you find such examples of the perfect of LEGW as LELEXA ( where X =
Chi ) as used by the ancient medical writer Galen but note the addendum:
EIRHKA in correct writers):--
