Διαξαίνειν: ἀναιρεῖν, διακόπτειν. ὁ δὲ ἑάλω, καὶ ἔμελλεν ὁ δῆμος διαξαίνειν αὐτόν. ὁ δὲ οὐκ ἀφῆκεν, ἀλλ' εἴασεν αὐτὸν γῆν πρὸ γῆς ἀπιέναι. καὶ αὖθις: ὁ δὲ φόνους ἐργασάμενος ἐναγεῖς καὶ διαρρήξας καὶ διαξήνας τοὺς νόμους καὶ τὴν ἀνδρῶν ἀπειπάμενος φύσιν καὶ γήμας ἀθύτους τε καὶ ἀγάμους ἐκεῖνος γάμους.
