The headword is perhaps extracted from the quotation given; if so, it is masculine accusative singular (rather than neuter nominative/accusative).
[1] Tentatively attributed by Adler to
Aelian, but identifiable via the TLG as an approximation of
Procopius,
Secret History 6.23 (web address 1); cf. Kaldellis (31). See on this Theodoridis'
Photius edition, vol.II p.XCII. In the text, the verb
e)a/w (
I suffer, permit, allow) is in the third person singular
ei)/ase, not the Suda's plural;
Procopius offers a vivid simile for Roman and barbarian travails under the rule of Justinian I (cf.
iota 446).
