πλημυρίς
πλημῡρ-ίς, ίδος, ,
A). rise of the sea, as at flood-tide, πλημῠρὶς ἐκ πόντοιο of the wave caused by the rock thrown by the Cyclops, Od. 9.486 ; flood-tide, opp. ἄμπωτις (ebb), π. τῆς θαλάσσης μεγάλη Hdt. 8.129 ; π. πόντου B. Fr. 30 ; ἡ ἔξω π. Arist. Mete. 366a20 , cf. Str. 3.3.7 (pl.), S.E. M. 9.79 (pl.).
2). generally, flood, deluge, Arist. Mu. 397a28 (pl.); of tears, σταγόνες .. δυσχίμου πλημῡρίδος A. Ch. 186 ; ὀφθαλμοτέγκτῳ δεύεται πλημῡρίδι E. Alc. 184 .
3). redundance, congestion of the fluids of the body, Hp. Acut. 62 .[ Hom. l.c., and prob. in B.l.c.; Trag., but ῠ’ in later Ep., cf. A.R. 4.1269 , 1241 : in πλήμυρα, πλημυρέω, πλημύρω, ῡ always.] (The spelling πλημμ- in this word and its cognates commonly found in codd. arises from the false etymology from πλήν, μύρομαι; the correct spelling is found in B. 5.107 , POxy. 1409.17 , OGI 666.8 (v. πλημύρω), etc., and good Mss. of Hp. Acut. 62 , AP 5.203 ( Mel.), cf. Archil. 97 .)
