1 I select a few samples of various kinds: (Pp.29ff.)Porcius Licinus, speaking of Africani vocem divinam, to which Terence listened avidis auribus, was not actually thinking of Scipio, but mixed him up with C. Gracchus, who really possessed a marvellous voice. (Pp. 51 and 60) Well-defined quantity did not exist in Latin (up to Stilo's time), and Ennius' and Accius' orthographical innovations served the purpose ‘a far comprendere e sentire la quantità syllabica a tutti’.—The suggestion (p. 71, 12) on a fragment of Atilius disregards the rules governing the presentation of typical characters in ancient comedy.
