page 165 note 1 I regret that I misrepresented Wise-man's argument in two particulars. What he has shown is not that Lesbia cannot be identified with any of Clodius' sisters, but that 〈to use his own words, p. 60〉 there is only a one-in-three chance that she was Clodia Metelli. Ofilius' Clodia is mentioned as possibly to be identified with one of the sisters, not as an additional candidate.

page 166 note 1 The alternative, preferred by the old editors and in more recent times by (e.g.)Haupt, Baehrens, Munro, and Ellis, is not to punctuate at all.
