Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[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.
[3692] So restored by Cujacius, followed by LB. and Orelli, reading in grat-i-am (ms. wants i) voluptatemque, while the first five edd. merely drop -que—“to the grateful pleasure,” etc.
[3693] Lit., “most cruel.”
