Extract

Hardly:τoσσάδε means ‘yet again,’ or ‘again and again.’ This idiomatic use of τοσο⋯τος (which is not recognized by the lexicons) may be illustrated from Plato, Apol. 19 c, µή πως έγώ ύπò Mελήτον τοσαύτας δίκας φύγοιµι, ‘lest I should be prosecuted by Meletus on yet another charge.’ Similar, in Latin, is the use of totiens: as Hor. Epp. i. 1. 6, ‘ne populum extrema totiens exoret harena.’
