Meaning

πάμφλεκτος belongs to the storm-object sequence at XIX.6, alongside speed, shuddering, and mighty force. Its burning quality contributes to the collective terror of the thunderstorm; the grammar should not be narrowed to one isolated object more confidently than the coordinated list permits.
