Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[3806] Lit., “world which holds us.”
[3807] The first five edd. insert the mark of interrogation after “hollow:” “Whether does a solid axis,” etc.
[3808] So the edd. except. Hild., who retains the ms. reading in scientissime—“most unskilfully” (the others omitting in-), and Oehler, who changes e into i—“and being most witless show,” etc.
[3809] Lit., “touch.”
[3810] So the later edd., reading from the margin of Ursinus figi? cur alia, for the ms. figuralia, except LB., which reads figurari—“be formed.”
[3811] So the ms.; but all edd. except Hild. and Oehler omit nobis.
[3812] So the ms., reading folgora dilatarit, followed by LB.
[3813] Salsa, corrected from the ms. sola.
[3814] Alites et volucres; i.e., according to Orelli, the birds from whose flight auguries were drawn, as opposed to the others.
[3815] So Heraldus, whose punctuation also is here followed, omitting id est sapor—“that is, taste,” which Meursius and LB., followed by Orelli, amend, ut est—“as taste is” in each thing.
[3816] Vel is here inserted in all edd., most of which read, as above, oloris, which is found in the ms., in later writing, for the original, coloris—“colour,” retained by Ursinus, LB., and Oehler.
[3817] Lit., “that the nature of man is.”
[3818] So the ms., according to Crusius, reading nec pro suis; while, according to Hild., the reading is prorsus—“and are utterly without hesitation,” adopted in the edd. with the substitution of et for nec—“and that they altogether hesitate,” which, besides departing from the ms. runs counter to the sense.
[3819] Lit., “transfer to Him the undecided conversions of the breast.”
[3820] Lit., “He can be formed by no imagination.”
[3821] Lit., “which the obscurity of sacred divinity contains;” which Orelli interprets, “the most exalted being holds concealed from mortals.”
[3822] Lit., “and being fixed on.”
[3823] i.e., Christ.
[3824] As Heraclitus is reported to have said.
[3825] The ms., first five edd., and Oehler read supernatum, for which the other edd. read, as above, semper natum, from the margin of Ursinus. The soul is referred to.
[3826] So the later edd., following Elmenhorst, who emended dico for the ms. dici, omitted by the first four edd.
