apotimema, in effect. As
Lysias says: "these men claiming that they had contracted for more and had established a valuation".[1] This he calls an

Demosthenes in the [speech]

Notes:
Abbreviated from Harpokration s.v. For the headword see also
tau 606 and
tau 607.
[1]
Lysias fr. 137 Sauppe (now 189 Carey OCT).
[2]
Demosthenes 14.19 (web address 1).
[3] Harpok. cites
Demosthenes 27.7 as an instance of this.
[4] Not in Harpok. (but already in
tau 606). The source of the quotation is unidentifiable but it reappears post-Suda in Georgius Cedrenus (C11),
Compendium historiarum 1.261 -- and more fully there, revealing the individual in question to be the Roman King
Servius Tullius.
[5] i.e.
Demosthenes 21. Adler tacitly corrects to
Demosthenes 20.155 (and J.J. Keaney followed suit in his edition of Harpok.), but unjustifiably: see
Demosthenes 21.21 (web address 2).
