Notes on the current edition

Metamorphoses

1.
2. There is here a gap in the MSS which has been filled in by a later hand. These three words are fairly near the meaningless MSS' reading, and can be construed.
3.
4. Colvin's emendation for the MSS' decitantes. Helm suggests detinentes.
5.
6.
7. MSS miseris. Milesiis and mysticis have both been proposed.
8. The best MS seems to read ambacu pascuae iurulenta,, from which no meaning can be extracted. The suggestion given in the text is tolerably near and makes fair sense.
9.
10. So Bursian for the MSS' vigor attetendit.
11.
12. This is the ingenious suggestion of Nic. Heinsius for the MSS' usu perfleto.
13.
14. The MSS found great difficulties in these proper names, and had produced a corruption something like Adoni vel mustei vatis Pipietis. Pimpleidos is Beroaldus' suggestion.
15.
16.
17. The certain emendation, independently made by Salmasius and Rohde, of the MSS' pugnarium.
