Greek is in lower case except in the following words where:
Epsilon (“e”) is doubled...
• halEEis (0217.5); bEEzeboul (0954); beethlEEm (0965);
• gEEnnan, gEEnnee, gEEnnees (1067); ekchEEte, exechEEn, (1632);
• elEEinoteroi (1652); elEEi (1653 or 1656); thEE (2316);
• katechEEn (2708); semEEin (4584); timothEE (5095).
Or it follows an Eta (“ee”):
• apeeEsan (0549); eiseeEi (1524); exeeEsan (1826); hwseeE (5617).
When Epsilon (“e”) precedes Eta (“ee”), as is usually the case, it
remains in lower case, as in, for example:
• aneleeemonas (415), deeesei, deeesesin, (1162), deee (1163), &c.
