It depends upon the particular edition whether or not the word "magnitude" may appear in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the English translations often do not match up in lines or vocabulary. Some may be more or less imaginative or succinct than others in choosing from a variety of synonyms to ancient Greek words. The word "magnitude" needs to be used in the second half of the play, but may not be found depending upon the choices of the translator in question.
