Notes:
According to Adler, a note in Gaisford compared this entry to Aristophanes, Clouds 580 (web address 1), where the very similar phrase mhdeni\ cu\n nw=| appears. Irrespective of that, the present headword phrase and glossing adverb also appear together in Timaeus' Platonic Lexicon, which suggests that the phrase is extracted not from the quotation given but from Plato, Crito 48C (ou)deni\ cu\n nw=| there: web address 2).
