1 The converse error ‘celere’ for ‘celeri’ occurs just above in line I.

2 For similar errors cf. the ‘ul tu timido’ of O at 95. 10; ‘guioclero’ at 66. 6; ‘magna a(d)miremini’ at 58. 5, and ‘cimex animal’ at 23· 2.

3 Cf. a somewhat similar ‘prolepsis’ at Aeneid iv. 534, ‘en, quid ago? rursusne procos Inrisa priores | experiar ?’ On this use of ‘the emotional vocative’ see Conington at Aeneid xii. 947.

4 Contra Symmach. I. praef. 25; Peristcph. x. 517, 680; Hamartig. 187, 114; Apotheos. 941, 927. Cf. also Boeth. Cons. Phil. I. 6, 48 (Peiper), ‘fomitem salutis.’ The word means successively ‘fuel,’ ‘aliment,’ ‘cause,’ and ‘source.’
