[94] ὀψὲ δὲ δή is the regular complement of the formal line 92 in books H-I, where the two go together six times; and so twice in the Odyssey (Od. 7.155, Od. 20.321), but not elsewhere in Homer. Indeed the word “ὀψέ” occurs eighteen times in these three books and the Odyssey, against three times in the rest of the Iliad (once each in “Δ, Ρ, Φ”).
