References

page 40 note 1 Questa retains turbare, odd in both sense and idiom. His reference to the meaning of turba in Ter. And. 235 (p. 12, n. 11) betrays some misunderstanding.

page 41 note 1 These omissions must be seen in the light of what is said below about the size of the apparatus.

page 41 note 2 The Ambrosianus, incidentally, which is of course used only in Studemund's apographon, should no longer be described as ‘saec. IIIReviewsIV’. E. A. Lowe firmly puts it in the fifth century.

page 41 note 3 Revised readings e.g. 405 experiar B; 553 obsecro B; 968 eum C. It is no credit to modern texts that even readings of C, conveniently accessible in Zangemeister's fac-simile edition of 1900, remained unchecked until 1965. Detail concerning corrections in B was available since 1900 in Lindskog's paper, LundsUniv. Årsskr. 36, and it bears out the accuracy of Questa's statements, except the perhaps at 681 (Lindskog, p. 25, a very minute point).
