Notes on the current edition

On the Virtues and on the Office of Ambassadors. Adressed to Caius

1. The golden age was said to have existed during the reign of Saturn upon earth. So Tibullus says—
Quam bene vivebant Saturno rege, priusquam
Tellus in longas est patefacta vias.
And Virgil—
Aureus hand vitam in terris Saturnus agebat.
