Where it is used

Plutarch, Aristides 5.5: … ος δὲ παντοδαπῆς καὶ χρημάτων ἄλλων ἀμυθήτων ἐν ταῖς σκηναῖς καὶ τοῖς ἡλωκόσι σκάφεσιν ὑπαρχόντων, οὔτʼ αὐτὸς ἐπεθύμησε θιγεῖν οὔτʼ ἄλλον εἴασε, πλὴν εἴ τινες ἐκεῖνον λαθόντες ὠφελήθησαν· ὧν ἦν καὶ Καλλίας ὁ δᾳδοῦχος.

Cassius Dio Cocceianus, Historia Romana 37.13.4: ὄλεθρον. Μιθριδάτης μὲν δὴ ποικιλωτάτῃ ἀεὶ καὶ μεγίστῃ τῇ τύχῃ χρησάμενος, οὐδὲ τὴν τελευτὴν τοῦ βίου ἁπλῆν ἔσχεν· ἐπεθύμησέ τε γὰρ ἀποθανεῖν μὴ βουλόμενος, καὶ αὐτὸς ἑαυτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι σπουδάσας οὐκ ἠδυνήθη, ἀλλὰ τοῦτο μὲν φαρμάκῳ τοῦτο δὲ καὶ ξίφει αὐθέντης τε ἅμα
