1 Like Lichfield, A. W., National exempla virtutis in Roman literature, Harv. Stud. 25 (1914)Google Scholar, a study not referred to, Miss K. calls them exempla virtutis, although she knows it to be wrong.

2 A plausible explanation is offered, and aptly illustrated by an amusing collection of parallels from modern languages, for the development of expressions like exemplis pessumis excrudare. Here a more lexicographical presentation would have shown that the singular is never used, a fact surely of some semasiological significance.
