- judge, award
Meaning
Nemesis sees, hears and judges everything (LXI.8), so the verb completes a sequence of comprehensive oversight. Dikaiosyne instead awards what is due through pure judgment (LXIII.4). The latter construction emphasizes the right distribution of an outcome, not merely observation.
