References

page 102 note 1 In Catilinam i. 2. The words in brackets are added by a later hand in one manuscript.

page 103 note 1 Perhaps a conflation in Servius' memory of G. iii. 195, uix summa uestigia ponat harena, with G. iii. 171, illis iam saepe rotae ducantur inanes per terram et summo uestigia puluere signent. One may guess that Silius, quoted above, agreed with some outmoded editors of Virgil in supposing a change of subject in the latter passage, so that the bullocks, not the wheels, mark the dust.

page 103 note 2 So in Quintus Smyrnaeus iv. 195 ff. Teucer and Ajax run neck and neck until just before the end.
