Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[3671] So Gelenius (acc. to Orelli), reading as in the margin of Ursinus, terrenæ circumscriptionis, for the unintelligible reading of the ms., temerariæ, retained in both Roman edd., Canterus, and (acc. to Oehler) Gelenius. LB. reads metariæ—“a limiting by boundaries.”
[3672] Lit., “motions.”
[3673] Cf. Lucr., v. 229 sq. The same idea comes up again in iv. 21.
[3674] Lit., “in.”
[3675] According to Hildebrand, the ms. reads dissimular-ent circumscribere, so that, by merely dropping nt, he reads, “to dissemble and cheat;” but according to Crusius, iri is found in the ms. between these two words, so that by prefixing m Sabæus in the first ed. read m-ent-iri as above, followed by all other edd.
[3676] Lit., “to roll…in the mind.”
[3677] Rigaltius and Hildebrand regard decipere as a gloss.
[3678] So the ms., reading formari, followed by Hildebrand and Oehler; but all the other edd. give the active form, -are.
[3679] Lit., “from.”
[3680] The condition, i.e., of freedom.
[3681] LB., seemingly received by Orelli, though not inserted into his text, reads poscerent eos for the ms. -entur, which Hildebrand modifies -ent ea as above.
[3682] Lit., “certain.”
[3683] Lit., “by error.”
[3684] Lit., “the sad necessity should be laid upon them, that,” etc.
[3685] Lit., “for the want of daily things,” diurnorun egestati, for which Stewechius would read diurna egestate—“from daily necessity.”
[3686] Lit., “of.”
[3687] Lit., “poured forth all their blood.”
[3688] Lit., “of their labour.”
[3689] Lit., “at last by force of.”
[3690] So the ms. and edd., reading vilitatem, for which Meursius proposed very needlessly utilitatem—“and at an advantage.”
[3691] So, adhering very closely to the ms., which gives e-t sanguine supputandis augere-t insomnia milibus, the t of e-t being omitted and n inserted by all. The first five edd. read, -tandi se angerent insania: millibus—“harass themselves with the madness of reckoning; by miles should extend,” etc.,—the only change in Heraldus and Orelli being a return to insomnia—“harass with sleeplessness,” etc.
