non modo = not only not, the second non being omitted when the common verb possunt is in the second clause ; when it is in the first, as § 137, id non modo re prohibere non licet, sed ne verbis quidem vituperare, or when there are two verbs, as § 54, quod planum facere non modo non possis, verum ne coneris quidem, the second non is added.
