Extract

Professor J. van Wageningen has sent me a review of my fourth volume of Manilius which he has published in Museum vol. 28 pp. 173–7. I never contradict the taradiddles usual in reviews, because, if the reader thinks it worth his while, he can find out for himself whether they are true or no, and if he chooses to believe them without enquiry, it serves him right. But when he is fed with false information about a MS which is out of his reach, he can do nothing to help himself, and may fairly claim to be protected.

page 175 note 1 The reading of L, as of M, is mensura et: L2 has very carefully and cleverly altered the final a into the ligature ӕ, which L does not use.

page 176 note 1 He calls this ‘het Latijn van Housman’, but it seems to be his own improvement of the Latin of Ovid, ‘uix mihi credetis, sed credite’, which I borrowed in my note on IV 141.
