Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[4331] Lit., “burial.”
[4332] So it has been attempted to render the ms., reading pausatæ circum arboris robur, which has perplexed the different edd. Heraldus proposed pausate—“at intervals round the trunk of the tree;” LB. reads -ata—“round…tree having rested.” Reading as above, the reference might be either to the rest from motion after being set up in the cave, or to the absence of wind there.
[4333] Lit., “could be done through (i.e. as far as concerns) fate.”
[4334] So Oehler, reading sacerdotum antistitiis for the ms. antistibus, changed in both Roman edd. and Hild. to -stitibus—“with priests (or overseers) of priests.” Salmasius proposed intestibus—“with castrated priests.”
[4335] i.e., in the ever-recurring festival of Cybele.
[4336] Lit., “length.”
[4337] So the edd., reading orari in alicujus substantiæ qualitate for the ms. erari restored by Oehler, num-erari—“numbered in the quality of some substance,” from the reading of an old copy adopted by Livineius.
[4338] Lit., “through the resistance of nature.”
[4339] b.c. 43.
[4340] Lit., “the feeling commonly implanted.”
[4341] Lit., “was regard of piety wanting”—defuit, an emendation of Salmasius (according to Orelli) for the ms. depuit.
[4342] Lit., “the depth and patience of his sleeping mother.”
[4343] Lit., “from the theft of taking by surprise”—obreptionis, for which the ms., first four edd., Oberth., Hild., and Oehler read object.—“of what he proposed.”
[4344] So Heraldus, reading conventionis hujusmodi cœtum for the ms. cœptum.
[4345] Sustulisse alvos graves.
[4346] Most edd. read as an interrogation.
[4347] Perhaps, “that she might not be subject to ill-will for having borne so.”
[4348] i.e., to form nooses with. The reading translated is an emendation of Jos. Scaliger, adopted by Orelli, peniculamenta decurtantem cantheriorum, for the ms. peniculantem decurtam tam cantherios, emended by each ed. as he has thought fit.
[4349] Lit., “the cares of art.”
[4350] Lit., “endowed with the honour of.”
[4351] The ms. here inserts de—“from the body from a divine (being).”
