page 362 note 1 How far the corruption is due to the torn or illegible state of the marginal jotting, and how far to erroneous transcription of un-Latin letters, or to an attempt to Latinize un-Latin words, is a point for Semitic scholars to decide.

page 362 note 2 Notice the interpunctuation in B between these words of v. 935 yth chil ys chon chem liful, and these of v. 936 yth binim ysdybur etc., etc.

page 362 note 3 Beside the actually recorded variants of T, one may within limits infer the reading of T from the absence of any record of its divergence from the reading of the Gryphius text.

page 362 note 4 The lengthening of this syllable is mentioned apparently as one of a number of other metrical licences (real or seeming) of Plautus, such as the lengthening of the first syllable of lătrones.
