*ma/ssei: fura=|, zumoi=.

Third person singular, present indicative active, of ma/ssw, Attic ma/ttw. Evidently quoted from somewhere: likewise or similarly glossed in other lexica (see the references at Photius mu124 Theodoridis), and cf. also a scholion on Plato, Republic 372B, where the aorist participle ma/cantes occurs.
