Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[4242] Lit., “notions.”
[4243] Lit., “placed in their ears.”
[4244] Lit., “and it has not been established by you,”—a very abrupt transition in the structure of the sentence.
[4245] Lit., “which was very near to disgrace.”
[4246] So the margin of Ursinus, followed by later edd., prefixing d before the ms. -eorum.
[4247] Lit., “has less bite, being weakened by the testimony of silent reviewing,” recognitionis.
[4248] Lit., “most enduring.”
[4249] Coetu. The ms. and most edd. read coalitu,—a word not occurring elsewhere; which Gesner would explain, “put away that it may not be established among men,” the sense being the same in either case.
[4250] Lit., “complain of the neglected insults of the other gods.”
[4251] Lit., “as a lover by.” Cf. Homer, Il., 14, 312.
[4252] i.e., of himself.
[4253] Lit., “except that which was full of religion.”
[4254] i.e., according to which such offenses should be punished.
[4255] Lit., “have willed.”
[4256] Lit., “full-grown race,” exoleti, a word frequently used, as here, sensu obscæno.
[4257] i.e., the actors, etc.
[4258] i.e., the crowd of adulterers, as Orelli suggests.
[4259] Lit., “draw enticements of pleasures from.”
[4260] Or, “Venus, the mother…and loving parent,” etc.
[4261] Lit., “of meretricious vileness.”
[4262] i.e., Cybele, to whom Mount Dindymus in Mysia was sacred, whose rites, however, were celebrated at Pessinus also, a very ancient city of Galatia.
