Exegesis
The causal conjunction hoti {ὅτι | hó-ti} leads into the reason clause, where odunōmai {ὀδυνῶμαι | o-du-nô-mai} ‘I am tormented’ in the present middle/passive indicates ongoing suffering, localized by the prepositional phrase en tē phlogi tautē {ἐν τῇ φλογὶ ταύτῃ | en tê phlo-gì tau-tḗ} ‘in this flame’.
