I read that as "haec" as in "hic, haec, hoc". I have no Latin dictionary here and my schoollatin is very rusty. "Auctare" means to "rise steadily" or "make money". That's where I got the multiply from. I can blame that on the language barrier :)

I believe auctare meant "to author" in vulgar latin. Augeor may be what you are looking for if you mean a steady increase (Augment?).
