Translation
Homer [writes]: "and all the rest of him." Thus one is accustomed to say "all the rest", when only some small insignificant part of the whole is left out.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ἄλλο τόσον· Ὅμηρος· τοῦ δὲ καὶ ἄλλο τόσον. οὕτως εἴωθε λέγειν ἄλλο τόσον, ἐπειδὰν ἀπολίπῃ τι τοῦ ὅλου μικρὸν ἀτελές.
