θείου, τό (apparently the neuter of the adjective θεῖος equivalent to divine incense, because burning brimstone was regarded as having power to purify, and to ward off contagion (but Curtius, § 320 allies it with θύω; cf. Latin fumus, English dust)), brimstone: Homer, Iliad 16,228; Odyssey 22,481, 493; (Plato) Tim. Locr., p. 99c.; Aelian v. h. 13,15 (16); Herodian, 8,4, 26 (9 edition, Bekker).)
