[154] δυσηλεγέος here and Od. 22.325 only in H. (Hes. Theog. 652, Hes. Opp. 506). Like “τανηλεγέος” (for which see note on 8.70) it is best referred to “ἄλγος”, with the “ε” developed from the liquid as in “ἀλεγεινός”. The “η” is an instance of the vowel-lengthening which is peculiarly common at the joint of a compound; as in “δυσηχής”, which is identical in sense (see note on 2.686).
