*pompeu/ei: w(s nenikhkw\s megalhgorei=. 

Notes

  1. Same entry in the Synagoge and Photius. The headword must be quoted from somewhere. (The vocabulary and overtones sound Christian, i.e. the devil doing this.)
    For this sense of pompeu/w see generally LSJ s.v., II.1.b and II.2; for another, see pi 2023.
