Introductory Notice to Arnobius.
[4786] Lit., “for the sake of.”
[4787] Lit., “with the fleeting tickling of.”
[4788] Lit., “with the levities of gladnesses.”
[4789] i.e., pleasure.
[4790] Naturalis initii consortia.
[4791] So the ms. and first ed., according to Oehler, reading cred-e-t, the others -i-—“does.”
[4792] Lit., “these.”
[4793] Arnobius says that the sacrifices give no pleasure to any being, or at least, if that is not strictly true, that they give none to the gods. [See Elucidation VI., infra.]
[4794] So the ms., LB., Oberthür, Orelli, Hild., and Oehler, reading consec-, for which the rest read consen-taneum est credere—“it is fitting to believe.”
[4795] Lit., “motion of anything.”
[4796] Cf. i. 18.
[4797] Lit., “set in indignations.”
[4798] Lit., “if this satisfaction of sacrifices is offered to.”
[4799] So the ms. and most edd., reading laeta, for which Ursinus suggested lauta—“splendid,” and Heraldus elata—“exalted.”
[4800] It is perhaps possible so to translate the ms. neque si sunt ulli apertissima potuit cognitione dignosci, retained by Orelli, Hild., and Oehler, in which case si sunt ulli must be taken as the subject of the clause. The other edd., from regard to the construction, read visi—“nor, if they have been seen, has it been possible.”
[4801] Lit., “kept with inviolable observance.”
[4802] Lit., “work.”
[4803] Lit., “remedy.”
[4804] So Panes seems to be generally understood, i.e., images of Pan used as playthings by boys, and very much the same thing as the puppets—pupuli—already mentioned.
[4805] So Panes seems to be generally understood, i.e., images of Pan used as playthings by boys, and very much the same thing as the puppets—pupuli—already mentioned.
[4806] Lit., “to have liberal pardons and free concessions.”
