Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[4553] Lit., “it ought to have been so believed, and to be held fixed in thought just,” etc.
[4554] Lit., “are in this part of censure.”
[4555] Lit., “for.”
[4556] Lit., “the warp,” stamine.
[4557] i.e., if things are spoken of under their proper names.
[4558] The ms. reads ac unintelligibly.
[4559] Lit., “it remains that we.”
[4560] Lit., “series which is,” etc.
[4561] Singular. [But costly churches were built about this time.]
[4562] Non altaria, non aras, i.e., neither to the superior nor inferior deities. Cf. Virgil, Ecl., v. 66.
[4563] [It is not with any aversion to incense that I note its absence, so frequently attested, from primitive rites of the Church.]
[4564] The earlier edd. prefix d to the ms. eos—“that the gods,” etc.
[4565] Lit., “endowed with the eminence of this name.”
[4566] Lit., “and to satiety.”
[4567] The ms. wants se, which was supplied by Stewechius.
[4568] i.e., not act impartially and benevolently, which may possibly be the meaning of contrariis agere, or, as Oehler suggests, “to assail men with contrary, i.e., injurious things.” All edd. read egere, except Oehler, who can see no meaning in it; but if translated, “to wish for contrary things,” it suits the next clause very well.
[4569] Lit., “whom passion touches, suffer.”
[4570] So the ms., Stewechius, Hild., and Oehler, while the first four edd. and Oberthür merely add m to dolore, and join with the preceding pati—“suffer pain, are weakened.”
[4571] [See note 5, book. vi. p. 506.]
[4572] The ms. and most edd. read di-vina nobiscum—“the divine things along with us;” Heraldus rejects div. as a gloss, while Meursius, followed by Orelli, corrects dii una, and Oehler divi una, as above.
[4573] Lit., “are contained in vital substance.”
