Add some explanatory text to the legend

I have a legend that is going to have some abbreviations to compactly indicate
the properties of different lines in a graph. I'd like to add a little 'key' to
explain what the notation means. Any suggestion?

I was thinking of the annotate functionality, but on second thought, I think you are looking for something like
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.text

Regards,
Ethan
