-QEIS is typically a masculine nominative aorist passive participle,
i.e.:
LUQEIS LUQENTES
LUQENTOS LUQENTWN
LUQENTI LUQEISI
LUQENTA LUQENTAS
So DOXASQEIS is from DOXAZW, and the aorist stem is -DOXAS-. I believe
that the second person singular aorist active indicative would be
EDOXASAS. (This is off the top of my head -- if I'm wrong, I'm
confident someone will point it out :-).
