“Other less-usual senses of #syllapsis (or #syllēpsis) are nonetheless essential for deciphering [fragment] CXXIV.” -- Kahn 1979, p.282 ... (1) #Syllēpsis is etymologically a ‘taking-together’, a physical #conjunction or #concatenation of sounds or the like, as in the cognate #syllabē, ‘syllable'. (2) #Syllēpsis can designate the cognitive act of #collecting-together, #comprehending, or #summing-up” [ibidem].
