[Meaning] of a great number. "Of a multitude of Dionysia." [1] Meaning of a great number, and of many Dionysia. Aristophanes [sc. writes this].

Note:
[1] From Aristophanes, Peace 530 (web address 1). The entry quotes the scholia there, which are probably based on a misreading of the verse; we should read u(podoxh=s and *dionusi/wn separated with a comma.
