Betacode
*qe/mista: no/mon, h)\ di/khn.
Notes
*qe/mis (theta 114, theta 115, theta 121), epic accusative thereof; taken to be quoted from Homer, Iliad 5.761. Same glossing in Photius and other lexica; similar in Hesychius theta240 (s.v.qe/mistas ); and see also a scholion on Homer, Iliad 1.238, where the accusative plural occurs (web address 1).
