INTRODUCTION 
 
 Among the discoveries made by Poggio in the course of his 
 famous mission to the Council of Constance were a number of speeches 
 of Cicero new to Italian scholars. I extract from Voigt a convenient 
 summary of the facts as at present known 1 . 
 
 'The excursions which Poggio made into France appear to have 
 preceded his investigations in German monasteries. If in the latter 
 case he has to share with others 2 the credit of his discoveries, he 
 was, so far as we know, without a companion in France. And it 
 was precisely in France that he succeeded in making a substantial 
 addition to the writings of Cicero, which since the time of Petrarch had 
 been sought for with peculiar ardour. He found at Cluni 3 an ancient 
 MS. much damaged, which contained among other speeches of Cicero 
 those for Sextus Roscius and for Murena. Both were unknown 
 previously, and both appear to have been preserved to the world 
 only through the discovery of Poggio. He rescued the MS. from 
 impending destruction, and sent it to Florence, where Guarino and 
 Barbara struggled to decipher those passages which were now in 
 a desperate condition from mildew. A second and still richer discovery 
 of no less than eight new speeches was made by Poggio at Langres on 
 the Marne, the old town of the Lingones. He was not able to obtain 
 possession of the old MS., but it is from the transcript which he made 
 that the various copies made by his friends in Florence and Venice are

 derived, and it is through these only that some of the speeches have 
 been preserved, while others have since been discovered in other MSS. 
 The ancient MS. of Langres has now disappeared.' 
 
 It is not my purpose on this occasion to discuss the second group 
 of speeches, viz. pro Caecina, the three orations de lege agraria, pro 
 Rabirio Postumo, pro Rabirio perduellionis reo, pro Roscio Comoedo, and 
 in Pisonem. I would merely remark that in my opinion modern writers 
 go too far in attributing to the whole of these a common origin. This 
 statement has been made on the strength of two colophons found in 
 certain MSS. which contain the second sylloge 1 . The first of these 
 occurs at the end of the pro Caecina, which is placed first in the 
 collection, and runs thus : 
 
 'Hanc orationem antea culpa temporum deperditam Poggius 
 Latinis viris restituit et in Italiam reduxit, cum earn diligentia sua 
 in Gallia reclusam in silvis Lingonum adinvenisset conscripsissetque 
 ad Tullii memoriam et doctorum hominum utilitatem.' 
 
 After this come the other speeches, seven in all, with the following 
 colophon at the end of the in Pisonem, which comes last : 
 
 ' Has septem M. Tullii orationes, quae antea culpa temporum 
 apud Italos deperditae erant, Poggius Florentinus perquisitis plurimis 
 Galliae Germaniaeque summo cum studio ac diligentia bibliothecis, 
 cum latentes comperiisset in squalore et sordibus, in lucem solus 
 extulit, ac in pristinam dignitatem decoremque restituens Latinis 
 Musis dicavit.' 
 
 It appears to me that both colophons are to be taken quite 
 literally. It is only for the pro Caecina that provenance from Langres 
 is claimed. The other seven speeches were found in French or German 
 libraries, the names of which are not given. It has hitherto been 
 supposed that the final colophon referred to the whole sylloge, and 
 that the author of it wrote septem for octo, supposing that the speeches 
 pro Rabirio perduellionis reo and pro Roscio Comoedo, both of which are 
 fragmentary, were taken to be one oration 2 . This is a violent inter- 
 pretation, and contrary to the plain meaning of the colophons. I fear, 
 
 1 The best known of these is a MS. (Lanr. Conv. Soppr. 13) formerly known as codex 
 S. Mariae, described by Bandini, ii. 431 on Laur. xlviii. 7. Cf. Mittarelli, BibKotheca 
 S. Michaelis, p. 254 ; Halm, Handschriftenkunde der Ciceron, Schriften, p. 16. 
 
 * Mittarelli, 1. c. 
 
INTRODUCTION iii 
 
 therefore, that the very convenient title of Lingonenses 1 given to the 
 whole of the sylloge is not justified by the facts. 
 
 I now return to the Cluni MS. The date of the discovery is fixed 
 by a letter of Leonardo Bruni to Poggio, dated Jan. 2, 1415, in which 
 he says 2 : 
 
 ' Tu nuper in Gallia orationes duas M. Tullii, quas nostra secula 
 numquam viderant, tua diligentia perquaesitas reperisti.' 
 
 The place is known from several passages in the letters of Poggio 3 , 
 who speaks of ' orationes Tullii . . . quas detuli ex monasterio Cluniacensi,' 
 and of 'orationes meae Cluniacenses.' The illegible condition of the MS. 
 is described by Guarino, who remarks upon the lacuna in Rose. § 13a 4 : 
 
 ' Quod factum est situ et exemplaris vetustate quod vir doctissimus 
 Poggius ex Gallis ad nos reportaverat, qui et huius orationis et alterius 
 pro Murena repertor hac aetate fuit. Ut autem clarissimus et doctissimus 
 vir F. Barbarus dicere et deplorare solet, occaecatum adeo exemplaris 
 codicem, unde haec exarata est oratio, Florentiae viderat, ut nullo pacto 
 inde transcribi verbum potuerit.' 
 
 That the MS. contained other speeches besides the pro Roscio and 
 pro Murena appears from an inquiry made by Poggio when writing to 
 Niccolo Niccoli : ' Orationes meas Cluniacenses potes mittere. . . . Scribas 
 mihi quae orationes sunt in eo volumine praeter Cluentianam, pro Roscio, 
 et Murena 5 .' No one appears to have drawn attention to an entry in 
 the twelfth-century Catalogue of Cluni 6 , in which occurs : 
 
 ' 496. Cicero pro Milone et pro Avito et pro Murena et pro 
 quibusdam aliis.' 
 
 It is highly significant that this, the only mention of the pro 
 Murena in the mediaeval Catalogues, should occur at the place where 
 this speech was found by Poggio. The further fact that the pro 
 Cluentio was found in the Cluniacensis of Poggio, and in the MS. 
 described, is strong confirmatory evidence that Poggio's MS. was no 
 other than No. 496 in the Cluni Catalogue. If so, it must also have 
 contained the Miloniana.

iv INTRODUCTION 
 
 Of the history of the MS. after its arrival in Italy little is known. 
 Niccolo Niccoli retained it, like many other of Poggio's books 1 , and 
 was very reluctant to let it out of his hands. Poggio after his return to 
 Italy from England wished to consult it. He writes to Niccoli to this 
 effect on Nov. 6, 1423 2 , and repeats the request in a letter dated 
 June 14, 1425 3 , in which he says that he is intending to have a copy 
 of Cicero's speeches made by his own scribe. The writer was to be 
 an ignorant Frenchman 4 whom he was training, who was then employed 
 upon a copy of Spartianus. The Cluniacensis arrived in Rome, where 
 Poggio was, in 1427 5 , and in Nov. 1428 Niccoli was clamouring for its 
 return 6 . Poggio sent it back to Niccoli by Pier Candido Decembrio 
 with a letter dated December 13, 1429, in which he says ' ut obsequar 
 voluntati tuae mitto ad te per Candidum nostrum antiquum illud 
 volumen Orationum Tullii V Nothing is known of its fate after 
 this date. 
 
 I have been at pains to put together the first-hand evidence 
 concerning the lost Cluniacensis, from which all existing copies of the 
 Rosciana and Mtireniana are derived, since it is obvious that, if the 
 inquiry into the pedigree of its descendants is to be followed by any 
 degree of success, the method pursued must be historical. The best 
 example of such a method is to be found in Kiessling and Schoell's 
 Preface to Asconius, an author discovered by Poggio at St. Gallen in 
 1416. It is there shown that three transcripts were made, viz. by 
 Poggio himself, by Sozomenus of Pistoia, and by Poggio's colleague, 
 Bartolommeo da Montepulciano. By a comparison of these it is 
 possible to fix the readings of the Sangallensis, and to distinguish 
 from them the corrections and conjectures of the Italians. In the 
 case of Cicero's speeches, however, a wholly unscientific method has 
 been followed. The MSS. have been not weighed but numbered. 
 This was first done by the learned Jesuit, Lagomarsini, who denoted by 
 numbers the Florentine MSS. which he employed, without attempting 
 to discriminate between them. A similar method was adopted by the 
 collators of various Oxford MSS., the readings of which were published 
 in the large Clarendon Press edition issued at the end of the eighteenth

 century, and by Steinmetz, who collated Paris MSS. Thus we read in 
 Baiter-Halm of 13 Lagg., 4 Parr., 6 Oxx., and are bewildered. 
 
 The result of this faulty method is that undue attention has been 
 paid to late and sophisticated MSS. on the ground that they contain 
 correct or plausible readings, where other MSS. are confessedly corrupt. 
 Thus Zumpt, finding in Lag. 9 a number of such readings, claimed for 
 it, without offering any external evidence for his assertion, special 
 connexion with Poggio. It is, however, now agreed that it is deeply 
 tainted by conjecture, and quite unreliable. Halm, who refuted Zumpt, 
 ought to have made some inquiry into the credentials of a MS. which 
 figures largely in his Apparatus Criticus, viz. .S (Monacensis 15,734), 
 the lateness of which is sufficiently clear from the fact that it contains 
 two recensions of the Rosciana. It will be shown in the course of this 
 discussion that 5 represents the last results of Italian criticism, and 
 that it has incorporated into the text a large collection of variants 
 and conjectures previously found in the shape of marginalia. 
 
 In the case of one MS., which is considered by all modern critics Cod. Wolf- 
 to be the best authority for the pro Roscio and pro Murena, viz. ^wlw}' 
 Wolfenbuttel. 205, termed G by Halm, and W by other editors, the 
 historical method has been followed, but with very unsatisfactory results. 
 The peculiarity of this MS. is that it is written in a French, not in an 
 Italian hand, and that in these speeches it contains a number of strange 
 corruptions, faulty divisions, and unusual spellings, which show that it 
 reproduces an ancient and illegible archetype, where the Italian copyists 
 resorted to correction and emendation. Its fides therefore is regarded 
 as superior to that of the Italian copies. This MS., which I prefer to 
 call W, was collated by Fleckeisen for Halm, who puts it first, and 
 recollated by Wrampelmeyer, who laboured to prove that all other 
 MSS. containing these speeches were copied from it. His method of 
 argument is curious. In addition to a number of speeches of Cicero W 
 contains certain speeches delivered by a certain Iokannes Ioffridus de 
 Luxorio (i.e. Luxeuil). These are in a different hand, but the writer 
 of them has inserted corrections in the text of Cicero. Wrampelmeyer 
 infers that both portions of the MS. were written by monks of Luxeuil. 
 He goes on to argue that, as it was copied at Luxeuil — not in Italy, 
 but in France — it must have been written before Poggio removed 
 the original. Further, he says ' it is the oldest copy of these speeches, 
 
vi INTR OD UCTION 
 
 all others having been written in the middle or towards the end of the 
 fifteenth century.' The only evidence which he gives for this sweeping 
 statement is that the Monacensis of Halm is confessedly late, and that 
 a particular Paris MS. (7,777) is said to have been written in 1466. 
 'Not only,' he proceeds, 'is it the oldest, but it is the only source 
 of information.' The absurdity of this statement was pointed out by 
 Iwan Miiller \ who showed that the Italian copies contained a number 
 of passages clearly genuine which were omitted by W ex homoeoteleuto. 
 After an angry controversy Wrampelmeyer was reduced to the lame 
 explanation that when he spoke of the 'only source,' he meant the 
 best source, and said that ' in this sense he held W to be the source 
 of the other MSS. 2 ' He compensated himself for this admission by 
 reiterating his statement that W was 'the oldest of all MSS., having 
 been copied at Luxeuil from the MS. afterwards discovered by 
 Cardinal (! !) Poggio, and that to all appearance it belonged to the 
 middle of the fourteenth century.' He did not notice, and strangely 
 enough it was not pointed out to him by his critics, that, in addition 
 to the speeches of Cicero, W contains written in the same hand works 
 of two contemporaries of Poggio, viz. Leonardo Bruni and Valla, the 
 latter of whom was not born until 1407 : or that Johannes Ioffridus de 
 Luxorio is no unknown person, but the famous Cardinal Jean Jouffroy, 
 one of the greatest ecclesiastics and diplomatists of his day, and a 
 younger contemporary of Poggio (b. 141a, d. 1473) 3 - In spite, how- 
 ever, of these absurdities, it is held by all modern scholars that in 
 some mysterious way W is an independent copy of the Cluni MS. 
 This belief, as we shall soon see, is not without foundation. The 
 readings of W receive certain support from a codex S. Victoris used 
 by Lambinus, and from two of the Paris MSS. employed by Steinmetz, 
 6,369 and 7,777. Nohl rightly ranks these with W, and denotes the 
 three by the symbol a. 
 Excerpta I now proceed to some results of my own investigation. A flood of 
 
 ST 1! £ ht is thrown u P° n the subject by a MS. in the Laurentian Library 
 (LIV. 5). This contains (i) Asconius with colophon recording the 
 discovery of the author, signed by Bartolommeo da Montepulciano,

INTRODUCTION vii 
 
 (ii) ' Expositio Antonii Luschi in orationes IV Ciceronis, (Hi) a collection 
 of Excerpts from certain speeches of Cicero. The MS. is said by 
 Kiessling and Schoell to be in the hand of Bartolommeo. I have 
 elsewhere remarked that this is an error 1 . The hand is that of a 
 calligrapher, quite different from that of Bartolommeo, which is pre- 
 served in another MS., also in the Laurentian Library (Gadd. LXXXX. 
 sup., 43), containing works written by him at Constance. Also, the 
 writer is an ignorant person, whose knowledge of Latin was very 
 limited. Further, the text of Asconius contains a number of corrections 
 found in the margin of Poggio's copy, which Bartolommeo appears to 
 have borrowed from his more brilliant colleague. I, therefore, concluded 
 that the rough copy made by Bartolommeo had been transcribed by 
 a calligrapher who reproduced his colophon. The truth of this con- 
 clusion is proved by an examination of the Excerpts. These are 
 thus described by Bandini: 
 
 f. ioo b Cic. oratt. fragmenta et initia anepigraphica. (1) 103 pro Milone; 
 (2) 104 pro M. Caelio; (3) 107b pro Rose. Amerino; (4) \o& pro Murena; 
 (5) iterum pro M. Caelio; (6) pro Cluentio; (7) rursus pro Murena; (8) 117 
 iterum pro Cluentio ; (9) iterum pro Rose. Amerino. 
 
 My attention was attracted by the occurrence among these frag- 
 ments of passages from the Rosciana and Mureniana, and I thought 
 it probable that these might throw light upon the text of these two 
 speeches. Who was so likely to have had access to the Cluniacensis 
 as Poggio's colleague in the work of discovery, Bartolommeo da 
 Montepulciano ? I also noticed that among these passages were 
 excerpts from the Cluentiana, which we know from the evidence of 
 Poggio himself to have been in the Cluniacensis, and the Miloniana, 
 which, if the MS. discovered by Poggio was that described in the 
 ancient Catalogue, must also have been among its contents. The 
 Caeliana was the only speech which there was no previous reason 
 for connecting with the Cluni MS. Was this taken from the same or 
 from another source? The truth was immediately manifest when 
 I examined these Excerpts, of which I proceed to give an account. 
 
 They begin with citations from Mil. § 1, f. 100 v, 1. 35, immediately 
 after the Inquisitio Antonii Luschi. No titles are given to any of the 
 
 1 Classical Review, xiii, p. 123. 
 
viii INTRODUCTION 
 
 Excerpts, and the writer frequently passes without warning from one 
 speech to another. The passages from the pro Milone are succeeded 
 f. 103 r, 1. 10 by very scrappy quotations from the pro Roscio, §§ 5«-i35- 
 After these, at the foot of f. 135 v, come excerpts from the pro Caelio, 
 §§ 74-80 ; then follow a fresh set of citations from the pro Roscio, 
 §§ 1-47, succeeded by quotations from Cael. §§ 13-74, and so on. 
 It is obvious that the scribe has copied dislocated leaves from the 
 note-book of Bartolommeo. 
 
 Frequently there is a dislocation inside a set of excerpts. Thus 
 a quotation from Rose. § 108 is placed between others from § 109. 
 Similarly words are often given in the wrong order; thus Mur. § 7 
 nihil . . . a consule postulandum appears as postnlandum nihil . . . a 
 consule. The ignorance of the writer is as transparent as his bona fides. 
 We find such slips as an scribi=anseribus, puteiitis = putetis, cecessaria = 
 necessaria, cruditissimus = eruditissimus, negligentientiae = negligentiae, 
 f agile = fragile, viderentttru =vlderentur. He reproduces a number of 
 abbreviations, e.g. aud.= audacia, d. = di, u. z'. = vultum intuebantur (Clu. 
 p. 549, 28), these abbreviations being especially frequent at the end of 
 the excerpt, e.g. Clu. § 188, p. 596, 39 cogita. effec.= cogitaverit, effecerit ; 
 Cael. § 6, p. 1002, 13 a. i. m.= ac iudicio meorum. Obviously he copied 
 what he had before him without attempting to understand it. 
 
 The method which guided Bartolommeo in making his excerpts 
 is difficult to grasp. Sometimes he wrote out long passages, especially 
 at the beginning or end of a speech, e. g. the whole of the last five 
 sections of the pro Milone: sometimes they are very brief, consisting 
 of a sentence, a portion of a sentence, or of a single word. The 
 citations from the pro Sex. Roscio are the most scrappy, e.g. § 53, 
 he makes three excerpts of single words, levia — itiepta — nugatoria. 
 One can only suppose that he copied whatever interested him, whether 
 this was a passage, a phrase, or the use of a word. There are indications 
 that sometimes he found the original difficult to read. Thus Cael. § 41 
 coniveret is omitted in lacuna ; Clu. § 29 for de eo de quo we find de eo ... 
 quo in the MS. The character of the excerpts is the same throughout, 
 and it would be unreasonable to doubt that they were all taken from 
 one MS. This MS. can only have been the Cluniacensis, which 
 therefore must have included the pro Caelio in addition to the pro Sex. 
 Roscio, pro Cluentio, pro Murena, and pro Milone. 
 
INTRODUCTION ix 
 
 I now turn to a subject of great interest, viz. the affinities of the 
 Cluniacensis as revealed by these excerpts. This question does not 
 arise in connexion with the pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, since they 
 are known from no other source, while this is not the place to discuss 
 the relation of Bartolommeo's citations to the extant MSS. I take first 
 the speech pro Cluentio. 
 
 In the case of this speech two things are at once obvious : (i) that 
 the Cluniacensis was not one of the codices mutili ; and (ii) that it agrees 
 with the so-called melior familia, i.e. two fifteenth-century MSS., ST, 
 as against the eleventh century M (Laur. LI. 10). Modern criticism of 
 the Cluentiana has travelled upon the lines laid down by Classen. He first 
 pointed out the superiority of the recension found in ST, and distinguished 
 between two classes of deteriores, viz. the integri and the mutili, the 
 latter being derived from Laur. LI. 10. His distinction between mtitili 
 and integri is very unscientific, since a vulgar MS., if supplemented from 
 the melior familia, would, apart from such supplements, remain vulgar. 
 He does not inquire into the genesis of ST, though their sudden 
 appearance in the fifteenth century without any visible ancestor must 
 appear curious. I would remark that .S, which is the better of the 
 two, is the same MS. as that which Halm in the pro Sex. Roscio 
 and pro Murena terms M, and which in those speeches represents 
 the last results of Italian criticism. 
 
 That the Cluniacensis was not one of the mutili is clear. The 
 lacunae which characterize M (Laur. LI. 10) and its descendants are 
 §§ 103-107 om. egimus . . . ornamenta, §§ 127-132 om. quis est qui . . . 
 standum, §§ 149-154 om. omnibus hie . . . accusatur, §§ 176-182 quasi 
 ut . . . P. Saturii, §§ 192-end cum instructum . . . veritati. That the 
 Cluniacensis was free from any of these mutilations is shown by the fact 
 that the excerpts contain extracts from all the passages omitted by M. 
 
 The agreement of the excerpts, which I term B, with ST may 
 be seen from the following examples : 
 
 § 1 1 facile ' om. ST et Quintil.' Bait. : so B. 
 
 § 1 2 non pudicitia ' om. ST ' : so B. 
 
 § 27 Teani Apuli] ' Teano ST': so B. 
 
 § 29 de eo de quo] ' de ante v. quo cm. ST': so B in lac. 
 
 § 32 secundis 'rede om. ST': so B. 
 
 § 40 circumforaneum] ' foranum ST ' : so B.

 § 94 residuis] 'repetundis ST': so B. 
 
 § 125 abortione ST (T e coll. mea), so B : potione cell. 
 
 On several occasions B agrees with S against T, e. g. 
 
 § 30 reliqua iam BS : iam reliqua cell. 
 
 S 4 3 ei deol ideo ^>S" : adeo T.

 § 139 omnes enim Mae BS: omnes enim T: omnes enim illae orationes cell. 
 
 §141 essemi?^: essemus cell. 
 I have not observed agreements of B with T sol. 
 In the/r<? CWw # contains a number of variants from the ordinary 
 text, but its affinities could not be determined from the Apparatus 
 Criticus of Halm. It was interesting to find that it agrees with the 
 Turin palimpsest (T) on three occasions : § 39 si qui] si quid TB 
 ib. convivia] convivium ; § 41 aut prolapsione] ac prolapsione TB 
 once with the Ambrosian palimpsest (A) § 73 homini AB, vivo cett. 
 while §59 it confirms the conjecture of Orelli mihi ('ibi PEG: urbi S'). 
 It also gives readings quoted previously from S, the late Italian 
 MS. so frequently mentioned in this discussion, e.g. § 32 fratrem BS 
 and Claudius Sacerdos: fratre PEG and Rufinianus ; § 51 insidiandis 
 BS : insidiantis G : insidiantes PE ; § 76 significant BS : significat PE : 
 significatur G. 
 
 In spite of the goodness of these readings I was not prepared to 
 find that the tradition of this speech in the Cluniacensis was of such 
 excellence as it will shortly be shown to have been. 
 
 In the case of the pro Milone the results were alike manifest and 
 surprising. The Cluniacensis appeared to be a gemellus of Harl. 2,682, 
 the MS. upon which my own revision of the text of this speech was 
 based. That it was characterized by the same lacuna as H, which omits 
 §§ 18-37 cruentata . . . paene inter-, is shown by the fact that the 
 excerpts stop at § 17 and go on again at § 39. Everywhere there is the 
 closest agreement. Thus in §§ 1 and % it has (veterern) consuetudinem, 
 collocata, (terroris) aliquid, nee {enim), orationi, iustissimi, all readings 
 characteristic of H. For further instances it is only necessary to glance 
 at the collation. 
 
 It is now obvious that it was from the Cluniacensis that the 
 supplements and marginalia were drawn which appear in the margin 
 of several Italian fifteenth-century MSS. and are incorporated in 6". 
 
INTR OD UCTION xi 
 
 I venture to quote the words which I employed nine years ago in my 
 edition of this speech, when I said, after analysing the readings of ^ : 
 
 ' The natural conclusion to draw from these facts is that in the 
 fifteenth century there was in circulation a collection of variants taken 
 from Transalpine sources, which gradually became embodied in the 
 Italian MSS., 6" being the most highly corrected member of the family.' 
 
 It was in consequence of the information gained by my examina- Paris. Lat. 
 tion of Bartolommeo's excerpts that I was enabled to realize the I4 ' 749 ' 
 importance of a MS. which I shortly afterwards consulted in the Paris 
 Library. This MS. Lat. 14. 749, which I term 2, originally belonged to 
 the Abbey of St. Victor, and was written by a French scribe at the 
 beginning of the fifteenth century. Attention was first drawn to it 
 by Mr. Fausset 1 , who only examined it for the speech pro Cluentio. 
 He gave reasons for supposing that it was the codex S. Victoris used 
 by Lambinus 2 , an identification with which I agree : and showed that 
 in the pro Cluentio, although the text itself was copied from a vulgar 
 MS., the marginalia and supplements are drawn from the melior 
 familia, of which ST are the accredited representatives. 
 
 On glancing at the speeches pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena 
 I noticed a remarkable phenomenon, viz. that in many places the first 
 scribe had left a lacuna, which had been afterwards filled up by a 
 second person writing at a different angle. The words inserted by 
 the second hand were nearly always a corruption of some kind, 
 a strange spelling or a vox nihili. Frequently the writer drew what 
 was meant to be a facsimile of something in the original, sometimes 
 adding a fresh attempt in the margin. Upon my showing the MS. 
 to M. Omont he said at once, ' Oh, this is very curious. The writer 
 had before him a very ancient and illegible MS. When he came to 
 things which he could not read, he left a lacuna. Then he and another 
 monk put their heads together, and they inserted a facsimile of what 
 was in the original.' 
 
 A point which further attracted my attention was that these 
 insertions by the second hand in 2 generally occurred where a strange 
 corruption was reported from W, and that in such cases 2 often gave 
 a simpler form of the corruption. Thus, to take a striking instance : 
 
 1 Classical Review, xiv, p. 227. 
 
 3 It had previously been used by Sylvius for his edition of the pro Cluentio, Paris, 1530. 
 
xii INTRODUCTION 
 
 Mur. § 10 quod dandum est amicitiae] Here the first hand omitted quod, 
 leaving a lacuna. The second writer inserts cauod—c and q being not infrequently 
 interchanged in the Cluniacensis. W has cano. 
 
 The essential difference between 2 and W is, that in W there are 
 no lacunae, or insertions by a second hand, but that the writer of W 
 copied throughout one MS. without fresh reference to the original. 
 It became clear at once that W is posterior to 2 and derived from 
 it. The claim advanced on behalf of W, viz. that it is an independent 
 copy of the Cluniacensis, made before Poggio removed this to Italy, 
 is true of 2. 
 
 The authorities of the Bibliotheque Nationale with characteristic 
 generosity consented to lend 2 to the Bodleian Library for my use. 
 I was thus enabled to make a minute examination of it, the results of 
 which I now set forth. 
 
 That W is derived from 2 is beyond all possible doubt. This 
 is shown by the surest of all tests, viz. the fact that passages omitted 
 by W repeatedly occupy exactly one line in 2. Four cases occur in 
 the pro Murena, viz. §5 mint . . . defendendis non om. W ; § 6 digni- 
 tas . . . turn cum om. W ; § 30 bonus . . . iacet om. W \ § 79 magni . . . 
 at om. W. In all of these the passage omitted forms one line in 2. 
 The last case will be found in the facsimile at the end of this volume. 
 I noticed two similar cases in the pro Balbo, viz. § 29 coniuncta . . . 
 . . . civitatis om. W ; §53 -ma virtute . . . damnato om. W. 
 
 Besides these certain cases I noticed eleven others in the pro Sex. 
 Roscio and pro Murena, in which an omission of IF is due to the fact 
 that the eyes of a copyist dropped from a word which he was copying to 
 
 the word immediately beneath it in the line below, e. g. 
 
 inter 
 Rose. § 39 fuisse nihil autem umquam debuit cupiditates porro quae possunt 
 esse in eo, etc. 
 
 W gives interfuisse in eo, mediis omissis. The reason is supplied 
 by 2, in which in eo is immediately below nihil. The other cases are 
 Rose. §§ 55, 9a, 100, 102, 120, 147; Mur. §§ 29, 61, 69, 86, where 
 an omission in W is due to this cause. An interesting case is Rose. § 45 
 
 haec tu non intelligis sed usque eo quid arguas non habes ut non 
 modo tibi contra nos dicendum putes 
 
 Here W gives quid putes arguas : in 2 putes is exactly under quid. 
 
INTR OD UCTION xiii 
 
 The writer's eye travelled to the line below : then discovering his error 
 he struck out putes. 
 
 It will be observed that I do not speak of W as copied directly 
 from 2. It is the copy of a copy. This is shown by e. g. 
 
 Rose. § 27 quod hie simul atque sensit] After simul there is a lacuna of four 
 lines in W. There is nothing in 2 to justify this. 
 
 lb. § 89 Trasumenum] trahasimemumi significare videtur W. The reading 
 of 2 is trahasymennum, without significare videtur, which must have been a note in 
 the original of W. 
 
 lb. § in communi om. W in lacuna. The word is quite clear in 2. 
 
 1 shall subsequently show that the text has been corrupted to 
 a very unusual extent in the course of transmission. The scribe of 
 W or of the intermediate copy (or copies) must have been extra- 
 ordinarily careless and incompetent 1 - 
 
 The interest of 2, however, does not end here. In the pro Milone, 
 pro Caelio, and pro Cluentio, while the text of the oration presents 
 nothing remarkable, there are copious marginalia and supplements taken 
 from another MS. That this MS. was no other than the Cluniacensis 
 is clear from the fact that these variants coincide throughout with those 
 which occur in the excerpts of Bartolommeo. There are hardly any 
 cases of divergency. In the pro Milone the marginalia cease at § 17 
 and begin again at §39, just as the excerpts ceased and began again 
 at the same sections. The readings of 2 (i. e. of the second hand) are 
 generally identical with those of H, and in the few cases of discrepancy 
 are supported by B. The mediaeval argument to the speech found in 
 H is copied on a separate sheet at the beginning of 2, so that this also 
 must have been in the Cluniacensis. In the pro Cluentio the first four 
 lacunae have been filled up by pages or half-pages stitched into the 
 MS., written in the same hand as the marginalia to the rest of the 
 speech, while that at the end of the oration is added by the second 
 hand in different ink. The theory, therefore, suggested by the excerpts, 
 that the lacunae in the mutili were filled up from the Cluniacensis is 
 verified by 2. 
 
 2 consists of two parts, each of which is the work of one scribe. 
 The second part is written in a more cursive and less legible hand than 
 the first. The contents of the MS. are as follows :

 a second copy. 
 
 2 has been copied from several MSS. From the Cluniacensis 
 it has derived the argument to the Milotiiana, which is given on 
 a half-sheet inserted before f. 1, the speeches pro Murena and pro 
 Sex. Roscio, and marginalia to the pro Milone, pro Caelio, and pro 
 Cluentio. The ten speeches 3-1 a are derived from the well-known 
 ninth-century Paris MS. [P] No. 7,794, in which they occur in the same 
 order. It appeared to me that in these ten speeches it was directly 
 copied from P, marginalia being added in the case of the pro Caelio 
 from the Cluniacensis. Speeches 18-20 are a second copy of $-$, with 
 marginalia taken from P. I have not detected the source of the 
 
INTR OD UCTION xv 
 
 other speeches. There are marginalia to the orationes Caesarianae, 
 but neither these nor the text are of any value, also to the spurious 
 Declamations. In the first part of the MS. the speech pro Balbo 
 possesses marginalia similar in appearance to those found in the pro 
 Caelio. I thought that these might possibly have been taken from 
 the Cluniacensis, but Dr. Reid, to whom I submitted them, tells me 
 that they are not valuable. As Bartolommeo's Excerpts do not contain 
 any extracts from the pro Balbo, it would appear that these are taken 
 from some other source. 
 
 The marginalia to the pro Caelio are written more clearly than 
 those to the pro Milone and pro Cluentio. Also, none of them have 
 been erased. It is unfortunate that a large number of the marginalia 
 to the pro Milone and pro Cluentio have been rendered difficult to 
 read by the misguided attempts of a corrector to erase them. As 
 a rule they can be made out, but sometimes I found it impossible to see 
 what had been written. This is most frequently the case in the pro 
 Cluentio. 
 
 2 is itself a parent of two MSS. also in the Paris Library, viz. 
 Nos. 6,369 and 7,777. These were collated by Steinmetz for the pro 
 Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, and styled by him Par. 1 and Par. 4. 
 He did not edit the pro Caelio. 
 
 No. 6,369 is said in the old Catalogue to belong to the fourteenth Paris. Lat. 
 century. This date must now be corrected in view of its relation to 2. 6 >3 6 9- 
 The MS. is written in a good hand and is the work of a competent 
 scholar. It begins with the speech pridie quant in exsilium iret, No. 3 in 
 2, and gives the next twelve speeches in the same order. The writer 
 then, omitting for the time the pro Murena and pro Sex. Roscio, and 
 disregarding the second copy of Nos. 3-5, went on to the Caesarianae 
 and pro Cluentio, concluding with the pro Flacco, pro Sex. Roscio, pro 
 Quinctio, and pro Murena. 
 
 That Par. 1 is derived from 2 may be seen from the following cases : 
 
 Flacc. § 46 a C. M.] 2 has the strange corruption acMa. Par. 1 leaves 
 a lacuna in the text, and gives in the margin acma. 
 
 lb. § 17 Graecus apud Graecos non de culpa sua dixit, sed de poena 
 questus est. Porrexerunt manus : psephisma natum est. 
 
 2 adds in the margin Ath. s., i. e. Athenagoras, to explain Graecus. 
 
xvi INTR OD UCTION 
 
 In Par. i we find Athenis s. above natum, the note having been 
 misunderstood. 
 
 Mur. § 17 iacebant] iacebant 2: iacebam Par. 1. 
 
 § 26 eis] eiis 2 Par. 1. § 3° ingeniosus] ingeneosus 2, Par. 1.

 lb. multitudini nemini licitum] multitudinem inilicitum 2, Par. 1 pr. scr. 
 (multitudinem illicitum cett.). 
 
 Par. 1 has incorporated a certain number of the variants found in 
 the margin of 2. In this case the rejected reading is given in the margin 
 of Par. 1. Generally, however, the marginalia of 2 are also in its 
 margin. The writer does not reproduce them all, but gives an excellent 
 selection. He was clearly a good Latinist, and knew what he was 
 writing. 
 
 It is somewhat surprising that this MS. has not taken a larger 
 place in Ciceronian criticism. It is vastly superior to W, and is a 
 correct and faithful representative of 2. Yet, apart from possible use 
 by Lambinus, it appears to have been employed by no one except 
 Steinmetz, and he only used it for the pro Roscio and pro Murena. 
 No one quotes it for the/r<? Caelio, where it contains a large proportion 
 of the remarkable marginalia found in 2. 
 Paris. Lat. The other MS., No. 7,777, the Paris 4 of Steinmetz, is very inferior 
 
 7.777- to No. 6,369. Like 2 it belonged to St. Victor, and is beyond doubt 
 derived from 2. Thus Mur. § 10 (720. 18) it gives cauod for quod, 
 retaining the corruption of 2 ; § 51 (737. 3) Cice erupit, and in the 
 margin al. que, al. cur, and immediately afterwards (1. 10) P.R.sidio 
 for praesidio, reproducing 2. The MS. has a selection of marginalia 
 copied from 2, but they are far fewer than those preserved in Par. 1. 
 It has been supposed that this was the cod. S. Victor is used by Lambinus 1 , 
 but I think that Mr. Fausset's identification of this with 2 more likely. 
 In the printed Catalogue No. 7,777 is said to have been written in the 
 year 1466. I could not see any indication of this date in the MS., 
 which looks somewhat earlier. 
 
 Both these MSS. are superior to W, and together with it may now

 be disregarded in favour of 2, the archetype of the three. I proceed 
 to discuss more fully various questions connected with 2. 
 
 The orthography of 2 throws great light upon the age and character 
 of the Cluniacensis This appears to have been anterior to, or unaffected 
 by, the Carlovingian reformation of spelling. All the faults noticed 
 by writers upon the subject as occurring in the earliest Latin MSS., 
 such as the Puteanus of Livy, the codd. Vindobonenses of the same 
 author, and the oldest MSS. of Vergil are common in it. By 2, of 
 course, I mean the speeches pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, the mar- 
 ginalia to the pro Milone, pro Caelio, and pro Cluentio, and, in the case 
 of the last speech, the supplements inserted from the Cluniacensis. 
 I take various points in the order followed by Schuchardt in his monu- 
 mental work 1 , giving references to Ribbeck's Prolegomena to Vergil.

 e.g. Rose. § 46 esset (=-es), § 48 suprobro (=tu probro), § 64 sa (=tam), 
 § 122 tuine (=suine), Mur. § n triumphares (=-et), § 13 saltas (=-at), § 21 
 afuerit (=-is), § 41 adiungis (=-it), § 88 vertes (=-et), Clu. § 78 supprestam 
 (=suppressam), § 82 vertatur (=versatur), Cael. § 14 reformides (=-et). 
 
 Less commonly with / or g : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 120 defectus ( = de servis), Cael. § 43 deseruissent (=deferv.), 
 Mur. § 35 gemel (=semel). 
 
 Sometimes it is omitted : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 58 accusa, Mur. § 64 dixisse, § 76 epula, § 83 amplissimi. 
 
 Or added at the end of a word 1 : 
 
 e.g. Mur. § 13 amors ( = amor), § 26 aios (=aio), conspicios ( = -io), § 69 
 honestissimis (=-mi), § 73 vitricos (=-co), § 78 iacios (=facio), Clu. § 103 unos 
 (=uno). 
 
 p is confused with / (Ribb. p. 245) : 
 
 e. g. Mur. § 20 repertam (=refertam), § 32 Aspica (= Africa), § 74 res fuit 
 (=respuit), § 85 confirmentur (=comprimentur). 
 
 Also with t (Ribb. p. 252) : 
 
 e. g. Mur. § 11 pertiam, § 48 sapietati (=satietati), § 77 ab spe (=abs te). 
 
 x with c: 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 97 fax (=fac), § 77 sextantur (=sectantur). 
 
 Or with a : 
 
 e.g. Clu. § 154 praemixtum (=praemia turn). 
 
 Most of these confusions are due to mispronunciation, others, e. g. 
 the permutation of c and g, may be caused by the similarity of these 
 letters in uncial MSS. To these may be added the frequent confusion 
 of i and I : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 146 quasi ( = quas L), Mur. § 73 tribullum (=-lium), § 82 eliolem 
 (=evolem), § 87 vos si (=vos L), Clu. § 84 iutro (=ultro), Cael. § 1 iudicis 
 (=ludis). 
 
 And of e and/: 
 
 e.g. Mur. § 21 eorum (= forum), § 86 fidem (=idem). 
 
 1 The Rev. H. M. Bannister supplies me with nine examples of similar addition, e. g. digitos 
 ( = -to), caelos ( = -lo), &c, from MS. Vat. Regin. Lat. 317, Sacramentarium Gothicum, which 
 he considers to have been written about 700 A. D. in the neighbourhood of Toulouse. 
 
xx INTRODUCTION 
 
 Among abbreviations may be noticed : 
 
 Rose. § 20 rus (=rusiicum), § 125 primum (cf. Cael. § 67), Mur. § 11 
 potissim. (cf. § 4 potissimo=potissimum summo), § 12 actrium ( = ac triumphum), 
 § 14 inimicor. ( = -omm), § 33 attened ( = ad Tenedum), § 67 fact. (= factum), 
 § 84 peric. (=periculum), § 89 magn. (= magnum), § 90 acerrim. ( = acerrimum), 
 Cael. § 72 maior. ( = maiorum). Laus in Mur. § 65 is written la m , while in 
 §§ 19, 22 us is added by the second hand in lac. 
 
 Cael. § 6y is interesting, as showing the agreement of 2 with the 
 Excerpts. 
 
 In 2 we find 
 
 A iam videri primum] A prim., i. e. the Cluniacensis had prim, iam videre. 
 This abbreviation is also found in the Excerpts and in Par. i. 
 
 An abbreviation of causa appears to have perplexed the writer of 2. 
 Causa is replaced by cum Mur. § 86, by arum Mur. § 9, omitted Rose. § 86, 
 Mur. § 90. It is inserted from a dittography of c, Clu. § 15 hanc causam 
 unam (=hanc unam), § 49 cum causa ( = tum), cf. § 96 ex causa parte 
 ( = ex parte). 
 
 Ctim is confused with con : 
 
 e.g. Clu. § 154 consumma ( = cum summa), § 193 cumsistendi (=consistendi), 
 § 194 comfido (=confido), Ribbeck, p. 393. 
 
 The symbol h. d., to denote an omission (i. e. hie deest), is found 
 Mil. § 8. For this sign, frequent in old MSS., cf. Delisle, Notice stir un 
 MS. Me'rovingien, p. 14 1 . 
 
 Among archaic survivals may be noticed frequent cases of 
 
 (1) Genitive in -i for -ii : 
 
 e.g. Mur. § 3 benefici, § 13 convivi, § 71 offici, § 78 oti, § 82 praesidi. 
 
 (2) Accusative plur. in -is : 
 
 e. g. omnis, talis, tris, artis, sapientis, &c. passim. 
 
 (3) u for i in superlatives : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 103 omptume (§ 144 optuma), § 116 intumi, Mur. § 7 
 acerbissume, § 8 alienissumos, § 9 facillume, § 89 libentissume, Clu. § 176 
 vehementissumis, § 197 amplissumi. 
 
 Also in verbs : 
 
 e.g. existumo Rose. § 135, Clu. §§ 149, 151, 197, Cael. § 24.

 (cf. iniquos Clu. § 202), § 134 volgaris, § 141 seruoli, Mur. § 2 vulgus, § 37 vult, 
 
 § 33 reuulsa. 
 
 (5) Unassimilated forms of prepositions in composition : 
 
 e.g. adnumero Rose. §§ 89, 144, adpendo Rose. § 144, adprobo Rose. § 138, 
 adpromitto Rose. § 26, adrogo iT/ar. §§ 29, 78, adsiduus Jifar. § 21, adtribuo 
 Rose. § 9, contigo Clu. § 51, conloco Rose. § 151, CW. § 49, Mil. § 2, conrumpo 
 Mur. § 74 : etflorescit Cael. § 76. 
 
 Among archaic forms the most interesting are occasional doublings 
 of s after a long vowel, e.g. Mur. § 36 cassum ( = casum), § 55 provissis 
 ( = improvisis), § 6$ ussus ( = usus). Quintilian says that this was the 
 practice of Cicero and Vergil, as shown by writings in their own hand, 
 cassus being one of the instances which he quotes 1 . 
 
 Another case in which the Cluniacensis preserved an ancient spelling 
 ascribed to Cicero by Aulus Gellius (vi. 9. 15) is Rose. § 60 pepugisset. 
 Gellius, who quotes pepugero from Atta, says ' Sic M. Tullius et C. Caesar 
 mordeo memordi, pungo pepugi, spondeo spepondi dixerunt.' This 
 appears to be the only occasion where the MSS. of Cicero support 
 this statement (cf. Neue iii 3 . 348-350). 
 
 Other interesting spellings are : 
 
 animum adverto Clu. § 1, Cael. § 7 ; cf. Ribbeck, i. 338. 
 
 audaciter Cael. § 13. This archaic form is quoted from Rose. Am. § 104 by 
 Priscian (audacter codd.), and occurs in several other passages in Cicero and other 
 authors ; cf. Neue ii 3 . 685. 
 
 conticisco Mur. § 22 : so Plaut. Bacch. 797, Mil. § 10. 
 
 dilibuius Rose. § 135: so the palimpsest of Fronto 177, 22. Cf. Caper, 
 ' dilibuit unguenta, non delibuit', and Schuchardt, i. 298, ii. 73. 
 
 depeciscor Rose. §110 and § 115 depeclus. Cf. Halm, ad loc., and Verr. 
 iii. 60, where this form is supported by the palimpsest ( V). 
 
 formonsus Mur. § 61. For this spelling in the ancient MSS. of Vergil cf. 
 Ribbeck, i. 434. It is also found in inscriptions, e. g. C. I. L. vi. 2,738. 
 
 poenio Mur. § 67. Cf. Schuchardt, ii. 296, and my note on Mil. § 9. 
 
 1 i. 7. 20. Among the forms quoted by Ribbeck (i. 444) from the MSS. of Vergil are 
 cassus, provissa, inclussus. 
 
xx ii IN TROD UCTION 
 
 qui (i. e. guoi) for cui Rose. § 9, Mur. § 13, C/a. § 5 2 , CW. § 77. Quintil. 
 i. 7. 2 7 says that quoi was written when he was a boy. 
 
 zw/«- C/a. §§199, 200, the archaic spelling affected by Sallust. 
 
 The additions made in lacuna, or in the margin, by the second hand 
 in 2 are of special interest. These are generally 
 
 (1) Words not divided, or divided improperly : 
 
 e.g. Mur. § 43 (733. 29) ipsisolire, § 47 (735. 12) quistolitis (=quis tulit? Is), 
 § 70 (743. 32) ametui id ( = a me tu id). 
 
 (2) Strange spellings : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 68 (48. 7) sutiius ( = sumptus), § 103 (58. 2) omptume, Mur. 
 § 10 (720. 18) cauod ( =quod), § 61 (740. 19) formonsus. 
 
 (3) Combinations of m, 11, 2, and u. Wherever these letters occurred 
 the writer was conscious of a difficulty, even in the case of familiar 
 words. In the following instances the letters italicized were added 
 by the second hand : 
 
 Rose. § 2 (30. 9) quawz, § 6 (31. 9), peeum'am, § 130 (65. 12) veniera/, § 144 
 (69. 10) op/ama, Mur. § 38 (732. 4) promanum ( = pop. Romanum), § 73 (745. 4) 
 znimtum, § 85 (749. 22) annum. 
 
 A striking case is Rose. § 135 : 
 
 videtis iudices et invidetis iudices et unum videtis iudices 2 in textu : in the 
 margin is inium, an effort at a facsimile. 
 
 Mur. § 3 a me una] ame 111 | 2 (m. 2 in lac.). 
 § 56 exitio] exll |o 2 (m. 2 in lac.). 
 
 Similar confusion is found in the marginalia taken from the 
 Cluniacensis : 
 
 e.g. Mil. § 37 (1164. 11) Vibienus] uiuienns 2, Clu. § 55 (557. 14) Iunius] 
 vuius 2. 
 
 (4) Unintelligible corruptions : 
 
 e.g. Rose. § 30 paruQ ( = per vim), § 79 multisanus (=multis annis), § 107 
 iudiciuae, Mur. § 17 ame (=tamen), § 23 istamiscientia (=istam scientiam), § 66 
 huiusce modiodi, § 68 ouiuiam ( = obviam). 
 
 There is an interesting case Mur. § 80. Here for cives, cives 2 gives 
 in the text quae siue : in the margin we find quaesciug, obviously a second 
 attempt at decipherment. 
 
 When the first writer came to a difficulty he left a lacuna, the space 
 
INTRODUCTION xxiii 
 
 provided being usually more than was enough to receive the missing 
 word or words. Thus in the argument to the pro Milone a lacuna of 
 twenty letters is left after a servis Milonis. The testimony of H, 
 however, shows that the single word contra is omitted. It is seldom 
 that insufficient space is left; thus Mur. §17 Pompciis . . . Caeliis, 
 a passage omitted by the first writer, and inserted by the second, is 
 cramped for lack of room. Frequently, however, considerable margin 
 was allowed for such additions, e. g. Mur. § 25 space for sixteen letters 
 is vacant after inistros duo admiserationis i denuntiatis. It was usual 
 for the second writer, after making his insertion, to draw a line through 
 the vacant space, thus showing that there was nothing more to come. 
 Where this line is not drawn it would appear that there was some- 
 thing which he failed to decipher, e. g. Mur. § 85 no line is drawn 
 through the vacant space left after impcdituri sunt, after qua po, and 
 after versabitur. So, to take a minute case, Rose. § 120, where 2 omits 
 cum before ita sint, no line is drawn through the vacant space. 
 Unfortunately, we cannot be sure that in all cases where the line is 
 found nothing is omitted. Thus Mur. § 87 the Italian MSS. have si 
 iniusle neminem laesit, 2 omits iniuste in a lacuna, across which a line 
 has been drawn by the second hand. So Rose. § 96 2 has a small 
 lacuna before Roscio Capitoni, which subsequently was filled up by the 
 usual line. Modern editors insert T before Roscio after the conjecture 
 of Richter. It was probably this letter which the first scribe could not 
 read, and for which he left a space. So Rose. § 138 2 gives decerne 
 before a small lacuna, which has been filled up. As, however, the 
 earliest Italian copy (A) has decemere, it would appear that this, or 
 some similar corruption, was in the Cluniacensis. 
 
 In some cases the first writer appears to have himself added at 
 the end of a word a letter about which he originally felt doubtful, and 
 for which he left an empty space. He then drew a line to show that 
 there was nothing still to come. Not infrequently he made a small 
 erasure after a word, and then drew a line over the erasure. My 
 impression is that, as a rule, nothing has been lost, but that some 
 minute flaw has been removed. Thus in the argument to the Miloniana 
 there is a space for four letters left vacant after incendio. The evidence 
 of H, however, shows that nothing has dropped out. Possibly a stop 
 after the word, which is preserved in H, puzzled the French scribe. 
 
xxiv INTRODUCTION 
 
 On the other hand in Rose. § 65 potuisset] 2 has potuisse before 
 a small erasure : potuisse is given by all the other MSS., which I have 
 collated. It appears most likely that the erasure conceals the missing 
 and necessary -t. 
 
 It is indeed periculosae plenum opus aleae to distinguish between 
 these cases. I should, however, be inclined not to attach importance 
 to some small lacunae or erasures, e.g. 
 
 Rose. § 44 (41. 20) vivo |], § 53 (44- 4) huiusce II, Mur. § 66 (742. 8) 
 comior ||, § 78 (747. 14) patet ||, ib. (1. 15) pertinet ||, § 82 (748. 23) nam || ne. 
 
 Something may, on the other hand, be concealed by the following : 
 
 Rose. § 44 (41. 24) factum ||, § 83 (52. 24) esse II, § 117 (61. 24) ac II 
 minatur, § 141 (68. 19) hie || etiam, Mur. § 15 (722. 2), vince ||, § 26 (725. 29) 
 cedo ||, § 30 (728. 3) artes ||, § 43 (734- 4) a spem ||, § 56 (738. 19) inimico ||, 
 § 62 (740. 27) cave ||. 
 
 There are three curious cases in 2, where the symbol usually 
 employed to denote transposition appears to have some other meaning, 
 viz. 
 
 Rose. § 2 audacissimus ego ex omnibus? Minime. At] Here 2 gives 
 omnibus "minime" al\ It appears probable that the marks are used to show 
 that minime is to be taken by itself. 
 
 7ie 
 
 lb. § 3 atque in vulgus emanare] 2 has atque "ne" in. Possibly a/que in was 
 in the original. 
 
 Ib. § 104 quid tu, vir optime ? ecquid] 2 gives quid tu vir ''omptume" ecquid 2 . 
 The earliest Italian transcript has et quid tu, vir optime, interpreting the symbol as 
 one of transposition. This may be so, or it may merely call attention to the 
 strange spelling s . 
 
 There appear to have been dittographies in the Cluniacensis, e. g. 
 
 Rose. § 122 (63. n) mihi nunc mihi, § 135 (67. 4) videtis iudices et invidetis 
 iudices et unum videtis, § 141 (68. 24) fortunas vestrasque nostras, Cael. § 23 
 (1007. 15) vellem vellem, § 36 (1012. 7) ilium ilium, § 73 (1025. 11) summi viri 
 et clarissimi viri et clarissimi cives, Mil. § 66 (1172. 10) ut ut, § 68 (1173. 10) 
 est et esset.

 or correct letters, or to show that vowels should be pronounced separately.

 Also supralineal variants and corrections, e. g.

 I now proceed to discuss the affinities of the Cluniacensis in the 
 speeches pro Cluentio, pro Caelio, and pro Milone, as shown by 
 the marginalia in 2. 
 
 It will be convenient to begin with the pro Milone. The agree- 
 ments with //"are continual, as will be seen by the collation, most of 
 the readings there given being those previously known from H. 
 I instance a few of the more interesting cases of similar corruptions : 
 
 § 5 cunctis] conontiis 2 : conunriis H. 
 
 § 8 L. Opimius aut C. Marius] aut C. om. H : after Opimius the Clunia- 
 censis had h. d., i. e. hie dees/. 
 § 14 etiam si e re p. oppressa sunt] om. e H, est 2. 
 
 § 18 P. Clodius] P. Claudius 2 : P. cludius H. 
 
 § 37 Vibienus] uiuienns 2 : uiuienus H. 
 
 § 47 omnes scilicet Lanuvini] homines scilicet ~2,H. 
 
 § 50 rea citaretur] re agitaretur 2/7. 
 
 § 68 est et] est et esset 2/7. 
 
 § 7 1 ut vos eum] om. eum H: ut vuum 2. 
 
 That the same lacuna (§§ 18-37) existed in the two MSS. has 
 already been mentioned. Among more important readings of H sup- 
 ported by 2 are : § 14 aut arma 2/7: aut quo arma cett. § 16 ingemuit 
 2//: gemuit cett. §37 intenta 2i7: intentata cett. § 39 concurreret 1H:

 INTRODUCTION 
 
 arma cett. §81 vestri 227: vestri ordinis cett. § 85 regiones 227: re- 
 ligiones celt. § 95 hoc eodem illo 227: hoc eodem ««. 
 
 In a number of cases where the variant of the Cluniacensis has not 
 been recorded by the French collator, the testimony of Bartolommeo's 
 Excerpts shows that 2 = 27. Thus § 1 H gives veterem consuetudinem 
 {om. veterem ET): as consuetudinem appears in the text and no variant 
 is quoted by the collator, it might be inferred that veterem was omitted 
 by the Cluni MS. The Excerpts, however, give veterem consuetudinem, 
 agreeing with 27. 
 
 Other instances of agreement between B and H (sit. 2) are : 
 § 4 de bonis . . . umquam om., § 86 sine lamentis om., § 90 caput orbis, 
 §101 in huius salutem, ib. eritis animo, ib. inquam et ciuis, § 103 si distrahor, 
 ib. pr. cos., § 104 illam beatam om., § 105 excipiet, ib. pro lacrimis. 
 
 The agreement of 22?27 in minute points may be shown by e. g. 
 § 47 ac perditi ~2BH: et perditi cett. § 54 audiretis] audiritis 22J27. 
 §105 sentietis] sentitis 22?27 
 
 Against this mass of agreements may be set a certain number of 
 discrepancies. I take first original contributions of 2. 
 
 § 3 quos undique intuentes, unde aliqua fori pars aspici potest] For 
 
 intuentes 22? give confluentes, which cannot be right. 
 § 53 hominum mille versabantur HET. Gellius says that versabaiur is the 
 correct reading, and attributes versabantur to ' Iibri minus accurate 
 scripti.' 22? have versabaiur. 
 § 58 quos nisi manu misisset, tormentis etiam dedendi fuerunt] For fuerunt 
 
 2 gives fuissent, an inferior reading. 
 § 66 praestantissima virtu te virum] praestantissimum virtute virum 2. 
 § 70 legem tulit, qua, ut ego sentio, Milonem absolvi a vobis oporteret, ut 
 omnes confitentur, liceret] Here H has oporlet . . . liceret : 2 gives 
 oportet . . . licet. The vulgate seems preferable. 
 § 71 cogere, ut vos eum condemnetis, in quern animadvertere ipse et more 
 maiorum et suo iure posset] Here possit the conjecture of A. 
 Eberhard is supported by 2. 
 § 79 ista lex lata numquam 2: ista lex numquam lata 27: lata lex 
 
 numquam ET. 
 § 80 et magno animo et libenter] et ante magno om. 2. 
 § 83 si ingrata] sin ingrata 2. 
 
 § 92 si in nostro omnium fletu nullam lacrimam aspexistis Milonis] 2 has 
 aspexeritis, an attractive reading. 
 
INTRODUCTION xxvii 
 
 § 97 esse hanc unam] hanc esse unam 2. 
 
 § 98 omnibus in terns et iam versatur et semper hie (so 227, om. hie cetl.) 
 
 habitabit nominis mei gloria] versabitur 2, wrongly. 
 § 1 01 qui multum pro re publica sanguinem effudistisj sanguinis 22?, 
 
 I think, rightly. 
 § 105 delegit 22?: elegit HT: legit E. 
 
 In the following cases 2 agrees with other MSS. against H, or 
 throws light upon the reading of H. 
 
 § 6 factas 2BT: factas esse HE. 
 
 § 14 inessent 22?2?: inesset H: esset J. 
 
 § 42 rumorem fabulam falsam fictam levem 22?27: rumorem fictam levem 
 H: rumorem fabulam fictam falsam levem T. The reading of 2 
 would make it appear that fabulam falsam has been omitted by H. 
 If so, I must reconsider my treatment of the passage, though I still 
 feel some difficulty in the reading of 22?2?, which gives no adjective 
 to rumorem, and three to fabulam. 
 
 § 79 ut ea cernamus quae videmus 22? : ut ea cernamus quae non videmus 
 H: ut ea cernimus quae videmus ET. 
 
 I recognize in the reading of 22? the origin of that found in 27, which, 
 therefore, I no longer defend. 
 
 § 80 ea vis igitur ipsa 22?: ea vis igitur H: ea vis ipsa igitur T. 
 
 To these I must add that in § 75 the Excerpts have limine, which 
 is against the reading lumine accepted by myself from H. I would 
 also notice that in § 4 they omit vobis, a word struck out by Bake. 
 This, however, may be due to accident. 
 
 Other differences appear to be proprii errores of the Cluni MS., e.g. 
 
 § 5 pro bonis (et) contra improbos, § 41 in saepta] vi cepta, § 47 iacent] 
 iaceant, § 66 ut ut intellego, § 77 ferro] freno, § 81 cecidisset (et), § 85 lacus] 
 lucus {sic), § 87 Italia] et alia, § 88 novo] gn (sic), ib. in gratiam] gratia, § 91 
 Caelius] Caecilius, § 104 hicine] hicne. 
 
 The question necessarily arises, whether H is in this speech copied 
 from Clun. 496. This hypothesis is attractive in view of the close 
 connexion which exists between H in the Orationes Caesarianae and 
 another Cluni MS., No. 498 in the old Catalogue, recently discovered 
 by Dr. Peterson in the library of Lord Leicester at Holkham Hall 1 - 
 
 1 Prof. Robinson Ellis authorises me to state that he has withdrawn his objection to 
 Dr. Peterson's reading of the erased library-mark in this MS., viz. dc conventu Clun., in view 
 
xxviii INTRODUCTION 
 
 Dr. Peterson is disposed to think that in the Caesar ianae H was copied 
 directly from No. 498. It would, therefore, appear to be a simple 
 explanation to say that H was copied in the Miloniana from Clun. 496, 
 and in the Caesarianae from Clun. 498. 
 
 There are, however, difficulties in the way of this theory. If the 
 description of Clun. 498 in the ancient Catalogue, viz. 
 
 Cicero in Catillinam et idem pro Q. Ligario et pro rege Deiotaro et de 
 publicis litteris et de actione idemque in Verrinis 
 
 is to be trusted, the MS. did not contain the pro Marcello, which occurs 
 in H, and in that MS. appears to have been drawn from the same source 
 as the other two speeches. Also, in the Caesarianae H not infrequently 
 preserves old spellings or abbreviations which seem prior to the readings 
 of the Holkham MS. Further, it is difficult to see why the writer of H, 
 who was clearly anxious to form a corpus of Ciceronian works, should 
 have copied nothing but the pro Milone from No. 496, omitting the 
 speeches pro Sex. Roscio, pro Climitio, pro Murena, pro Caelio. It 
 would be equally strange that only the Caesarianae should have been 
 copied from No. 498, and that the writer of H, who gives certain 
 Excerpts from Verr. iii, iv, v, should not have copied the complete 
 orations ii and iii contained, before its mutilation, by No. 498. Further, 
 if two Cluni MSS. had been used for the composition of H, that MS. 
 would in all probability have been written at Cluni. It is, however, 
 according to all experts who have examined it, a German MS. 
 
 I should, therefore, prefer to think that the ancestor of H was 
 a gemellus of Clun. 496 in the Miloniana, and of Clun. 498 in the 
 speeches pro Ligario and pro rege Deiotaro. If the contrary hypothesis 
 is adopted, then the tradition of H is brought back to the ninth century 
 for the Caesarianae, while its ancestor in the pro Milone is probably 
 of greater antiquity. As the Holkham MS. does not contain the pro 
 Marcello, and only portions of the pro Ligario and pro rege Deiotaro, 
 while the testimony of 2 and the Excerpts is incomplete in the pro 
 Milone, the importance of H would remain undiminished, and the 
 antiquity of its recension proved. 
 
 I proceed to discuss the speech pro Caelio, the MSS. evidence for 
 
 of the occurrence of the same mark in a legible form in another MS. recently acquired by the 
 Bibliotheque Nationale (Paris, Nouv. Acq. Lat. 638), a photograph of which was kindly sent 
 to me by M. Omont. (See Class. Rev., xvi. 460, xvii. 163, xviii. 23.) 
 
INTRODUCTION xxix 
 
 which, though good, is somewhat scanty. In addition to fragments of 
 two palimpsests A and T, we have the famous ninth-century Paris MS. 
 7794 (P). This has been already referred to as being the MS. from 
 which speeches 3-13 in S have been copied. Halm also used two other 
 MSS. GE, which are either copied from P or are derived from it, and 
 possess no independent value. A Harleian MS., No. 4937, collated by 
 Baehrens, is equally valueless. On the other hand striking variants, 
 apparently drawn from a different source, but sporadic in character, 
 occur in W, the Wolfenbuttelanus, and the frequently mentioned 
 Monacensis 15734 (S). The reader will at once divine the source from 
 which these come. 
 
 The evidence of the marginalia in S and of the Excerpts of 
 Bartolommeo shows that the Cluni MS. was closely connected with the 
 palimpsests A and T. 
 
 A exists for §§ 71-75 only. In these four sections I note the following 
 agreements : 
 
 § 71 eo maleficio tamen AS : et maleficio cett. § 72 crimen quaestionis AS : 
 quaestionis crimen cett. ib. seiunctum cum AS: seiunctum et cum cett. ib. 
 instruimur 2 : struimur A : instituimur cett. ib. his autem AS : is autem P 
 (variant celt.), ib. studiis aequalium AS : aequalium studiis cett. ib. nobilissimi 
 AS : nobilis si P § 73 homini AS (and B) : viro cell. ib. res erat AS : 
 res erant celt. ib. decessit AS : discessit cett. 
 
 T contains §§ 38-43, 54-56, 67-68. I note the following agreements 
 of TS: 
 
 § 39 et ut hanc TS : et hanc celt. § 40 alia quaedam TS : aliqua quaedam 
 cett. § 54 illis artibus TS : artibus cett. ib. in alienum TS : alienum P. ib. si 
 comperisset TS : cumpetisset P, variant cett. ib. a suis servis TS : a suis cett. 
 ib. domi suae TS: suae domi cett. praetermitteret TS: prae||mitteret P. 
 ib. in insidiis TS : insidiis celt. § 55 dignitatis TS : om. cett. § 56 nee principium 
 TS : de (ide P 2 ) principium P : neque principium cett. ib. evolvere TS : volvere 
 cell. § 66 testes iudices TS : iudices testes cell. § 68 sublata TS : sublevata cett. 
 
 To these may be added from the Excerpts, where no variant is 
 recorded in S : 
 
 § 39 convivium TB: convivia cett. § 41 ac prolapsione TB: aut pro- 
 lapsione cett. 
 
 This remarkable list of agreements shows that the Cluniacensis was 
 
xxx INTRODUCTION 
 
 in this speech closely connected with the two palimpsests A and T. 
 The antiquity of its recension is, therefore, beyond question ; its goodness 
 will be speedily apparent. 
 
 In the following cases it presents a reading given in rhetorical or 
 
 grammatical writers: 
 
 § 8 huic aetati atque dignitati Agroetins, p. 1 18 Keil : huic aetati atque isti 
 
 dignitati 2 : isti aetati P. 
 § 31 non solum nobili, verum etiam nota Quintil. ix. 4. 98, so 2: verum 
 
 om. P\ sed P 2 cett. 
 § 32 fratrem volui dicere Claudius Sacerdos i, § 180, so 2: fratre volui 
 
 dicere cett. (and Rufinianus de fig. § 7). 
 § 50 obliviscor iam iniurias tuas Arusianus (s. v. obliviscor), Servius ad 
 
 Aen. ii. 148, so 2 : om. tuas cett. 
 
 Also, from B (sil. 2) : 
 
 § 67 aliud fori lumen est, aliud lychnorum Fortunatianus I. iii. 6 : lux . . . 
 alia est solis, alia lychnorum B J : lux . . . alia est solis et (ac T) 
 lychnorum cett. 
 
 The most interesting feature, however, of 2 is that it so frequently 
 confirms conjectures made by various scholars. No less than six of 
 these proceed from Madvig. The most striking case is 
 
 § 45 hoc quidquid est quod nos facimus in dicendo, quoquo modo agendo 
 (so PEG, non modo agendo S) verum etiam cogitando possit sustinere. 
 
 Madvig {Opuscula, i. 396), after pointing out the want of MSS. 
 authority for the vulgate non modo agendo, says ' Vehementer suspicor 
 factum hie esse quod alibi quoque in orationibus factum esse memini, ut 
 in codicum nostrorum archetypo propter eiusdem vocabuli repetitionem 
 aliquid excideret, scriptumque olim fuisse : quoquo [modo facimus non] 
 modo.' 2, as will be seen from the facsimile at the beginning of this 
 volume, confirms the supplement proposed by Madvig. 
 
 On the same leaf will be found two other corrections made by the 
 same great critic, viz. 
 
 § 43 liquet P : necesse est EGS : licet Orelli. Madvig suggested libit, 
 saying 'Ex scribendi errore factum est liuet, inde ortum liquet.' 
 2 gives libet. 
 
 1 This reading also occurs in b (S. Marci, 255), and \fi (Gadd. xc. sup. 69), cf. pp. xxxix sqq. 
 
INTRODUCTION xxxi 
 
 § 47 labore fiendi homines a studioque P: labor confitendi homines a 
 studioque EG : homines a labore studioque S. Madvig proposed 
 labor ojfendit homines, etc., so 2. 
 
 The other conjectures of Madvig now. verified are 
 
 § 41 quibus sopita virtus coniveret interdum Madvig, so S: et ante 
 
 interdum cett. 
 § 58 ad earn rem Madvig, so 2 : ad eadem rem P 1 : ad rem P 2 EG. 
 § 61 datum esse aiunt huic P. Licinio Madvig, so 2: datum esse aiunt hoc 
 
 P. Licinio cett. 
 
 It may further be noted that 2, quoted by Gulielmius as codex Sancti 
 Victoris, is the source of a reading vindicated by Madvig against that of 
 all other MSS., viz. 
 
 § 52 tune Venerem illam tuam spoliare ornamentis spoliatricem ceterorum, 
 cum scires (so 2, spoliatricem, ceterum cum scires cett) *- 
 
 Madvig here remarks ' Optime subvenit codex praestantissimus 
 Sancti Victoris qui utinam saepius commemoraretur.' If it had ever 
 fallen to the lot of Madvig to behold 2, he would have indeed rejoiced to 
 see the verification of his conjectures. It is singular that no one should 
 previously have drawn attention to these remarkable readings, since they 
 are also to be found in Par. 6369, which is copied from 2, and contains 
 a well-chosen selection from the marginalia of 2. No one, however, will 
 doubt the bona fides of the illustrious Madvig, or suppose that his results 
 were due to anything but conjecture. 
 
 Though the lion's share falls to Madvig, other scholars may also 
 claim credit. I pass by a block of readings, about twenty-five in number, 
 printed by Lambinus with or without mention of a MS., since his cod. 
 S. Victoris is either 2 or a descendant of 2, e. g. 
 
 § 42 familiam, § 51 e vadis, § 56 causa videatur, § 68 sublata, § 70 libidinosae. 
 
 Also, readings ascribed to vett. edd., which can hardly have been 
 arrived at by conjecture, but appear to have been derived from the 
 Cluniacensis by Italian collators, e. g. 
 
 § 29 et copiose et graviter 2 and Naugerius: et graviter cett. The missing 
 words are not likely to have been supplied by conjecture. 
 
 § 69 a Caelio non est factum 2, vett. edd. : a Caelio non est cett. 
 
 § 77 iam res, iam dies, 2, vett. edd. : iam ista dies (i- et ista in ras. P) cett. 
 
 1 Ceterorum is also given by the first hand in if/. 
 
xxxii INTRODUCTION 
 
 Among these are some important supplements, which I shall shortly 
 discuss. 
 
 After making all deductions the following list remains : 
 § 8 talem te omnes esse existiment Wrampelmeyer (ex W) : talem te 
 
 omnes se existiment 2 (and W ) : talem te existiment cett. 
 § 9 potuit isti veil. edd. and 2 : potuisti PE (and W), potuit G.

 § 18 ex publica causa Francken, so 2 (and b 7 ^ 2 S) : et ex rei publicae causa

 § 78 patiatur Wesenberg, so 2: datur PEG 1 : dat G 2 : patitur G. 
 lb. absolutus est Baiter, so 2 : absolutus sit cett. 
 lb. et ad inflammandam Bake : et ad flammandam 2 (and B) : et

INTRODUCTION xxxiii 
 
 lb. et turpissimum Bake : si turpissimum 2 (si is found for ei in 2, Gael. 
 §§ 2 3> 35. 3 8 > 42): turpissimum ceil. 
 
 It will be noticed that some of these readings have passed into W 
 from 2. Several others which now receive confirmation from 2 were 
 previously known from W or from 5. The later MS. has without 
 doubt received them from Italian marginalia. 
 
 Vollgraf draws attention to the cases where 5 has preserved 
 readings, of which he says ' e meliore libro fluxisse multo veri similius 
 est quam palmares emendationes Bentleis Porsonisque dignas factas esse 
 a semidocto homunculo Italico in reliquis cum ceteris scribis misere 
 caecutiente.' All of these will be found to have come from the 
 Cluniacensis, including the case which he singles out for special comment, 
 viz. § 18 ex publica causa, as conjectured by Francken. 
 
 A signal service rendered by 2 is to vindicate certain passages 
 omitted by P or by P 1 , which have generally been regarded as due to 
 interpolation. This was the view of Madvig, who was followed by 
 Halm and others, though C. F. W. Miiller showed his usual independence 
 by raising his voice on their behalf. 
 
 The most striking case is § 2,4. Here 2 gives 
 
 Titus Gaiusque Coponii, qui ex omnibus maxime Dionis mortem doluerunt, 
 qui cum doctrinae studio atque humanitatis, turn etiam hospitio Dionis tenebantur. 
 Habitabat apud Titum, ut audistis, Dio, erat ei cognitus Alexandriae. 
 
 The sense is good, and the Latinity unimpeachable. The Coponii 
 also are historical personages, cf. Bali. § S3 
 
 T. Coponius, civis item summa virtute et diligentia — nepotes T. et C. 
 Coponios nostis. 
 
 In P the first hand left a lacuna of 4$ lines after Gaiusque. P 2 
 inserts ' omni cum doctrina homo atque humanitatis turn etiam hospitio 
 Dionis tenebantur. Habitabat is apud L. Luceium ut audistis, fuerat ei,' 
 etc., leaving blank space for a line before omni. P 2 is followed by EG 
 (and W). S has been supplemented from the Cluniacensis and reads 
 with 2, except that for Titum it gives L. Luceium with P 2 , and for Dio, 
 erat has fuerat, also with P 2 , thus destroying the sense. 
 
 Madvig ejects the addition obtained from ^,viz. Coponii . . . doluerunt, 
 though he confesses that he does not know from what source the ' homo 
 audacissimus, qui ineunte seculo xvi post primas editiones cum codd. 
 [I. 10] f 
 
xxxiv INTRODUCTION 
 
 conspirantes haec ita interpolavit ' obtained the name of the Coponii. 
 He remarks regretfully ' Edendus est igitur necessario locus hoc tristi 
 aspectu : Titus Caiusque * * f omni cum doctrina homo atque humanitatis! 
 
 The other cases are 
 
 § 35 si ea quae facis, quae dicis, quae insimulas, quae moliris, quae arguis, 
 quae probare cogitas 2. 
 
 facis . . . arguis om. P 1 in a lacuna of one line and a half. P 2 inserts facis, 
 quae dicis, quae in sororem tuam moliris, quae argumenta. 5" agrees with 
 2 : W presents a blend of P 2 and 2, i. e. it has quae insimulas from 2, but retains 
 argumenta from P 2 . Halm denounces the supplement as a ' pannus intolerabilis.' 
 Muller drily remarks ' Has ineptias non esse excogitatas ab aliquo grammatico 
 per se patere crederem, nisi refellerer ab edd.' 
 
 § 49 ut non solum meretrix, sed etiam proterva meretrix procaxque videatur 
 2 (so SW) : ut non solum meretrix procaxque videatur celt. 
 
 The omission is so obviously due to the repetition of meretrix that Halm 
 should not have remarked ' lectio non ex cod. aliquo integriore deducta est, 
 sed pro supplemento prudentis alicuius Itali habenda.' 
 
 § 50 aut impudentia et huic et ceteris magnam ad se defendendum facul- 
 tatem dabit 2 (and W) : et ceteris magnam ad se om. cell. Madvig proposed aut 
 impudentia ei sui defendendi facultatem, which cannot be considered gentle treatment. 
 
 § 52 dixeritne Clodiae quam ob rem aurum sumeret, an non dixerit. Si non 
 dixit 2, om. P 1 in a lacuna of 1^ lines. P 2 EG insert the words found in 5 with 
 the variants ad for ob, and turn iret for sumeret. SW give ob with P 2 , for sumeret 
 S gives turn sumeret (a blend of P 1 and 2). W has obirel. 
 
 It is to be hoped that in future the text of this speech will be freed 
 from the unsightly asterisks and brackets with which it has in these 
 places been disfigured by most recent editors. 
 
 I do not propose to discuss at this point the new light cast upon 
 the text by 2, but reserve this for subsequent discussion. 
 
 In the pro Cluentio the same agreement exists between 2 and B as 
 elsewhere. I would cite the following examples : 
 
 § 7 (543- I2 ) tandem] tantundem B, so 2 {del.). 
 
 § I0 7 (57 2 - 33) i ure ] s i ne v ' B, so 2. 
 
 § no (573. 30) laudatoris aut advocati] lautioris advocati B, so 2 (del.). 
 
 § 141 (583. n) assedimus] asse dacemus B : assedicemus 2. 
 
 § z 54 (587. 29) splendor apud] splendore B, so 2. 
 
 § 168 (591. 16) aetas ilia] aetas B, so 2. 
 
 § 180 (594. 32) serrulam qua illud] serrolam quam illud B, so 2. 
 
INTRODUCTION 
 
 XXXV 
 
 § l8 3 (595- 26) posset] possit B, so 2. 
 
 § 202 (6oo. 27) non animum] animum B, so 2. 
 
 The agreements of 2 or of SB with ST, the so-called meliores, are so 
 constant that it is not necessary to give examples. I have noted fifty- 
 seven agreements of SS sol., nine of which occur in the supplements. 
 I instance e. g. the following : 
 
 § 1 (541- 1) animum adverti SB: animadverti celt. § 12 (545. 1) iudicabitis 
 25": ducetis cett. § 36 (551. 30) Romam] Romae SBS. § 43 (544. 2) ideo 
 SBS: adeo T. § 62 (559. 24) de te SS: abs te celt. § 83 qui] cui quod SS:

 § 92 legem aliam] legem aeliam SS. § 119 (576. 8) contentam] contemtam SS. 
 § I2 4 (577- 2 3) cum re coniunctum esse] coniunctum cum re esse 26": coniunctum 
 esse cum re T. § 141 (583. 4) et] et ex %S: ex T. § 172 (592. 20) offensiorem] 
 offensorem 2>S". 
 
 I quote from the supplements : 
 
 § I0 3 (57 1 - 2 5) possimus] possumus SS. § 104 (572. 8) aliud si] aliud is 
 25": aliud si is T. § 129 (579. 10) qui] quis SS. § 180 (594. 32) dentium] 
 dentum 25". 
 
 Against this I found twenty-two agreements of 2 T against S, six of 
 which occur in the supplements, e. g. 
 
 § 7 (543- 3) opinione] opinionibus T, so 2 (del.). § 23 (548. 1) perpropinquus 
 27 T (and7 J , the palimpsest): propinquus cell. § 49 (555. 27) turn] cum causa 
 27": cum S. § 53 (556. 36) cuivis] quovis 27: § 74 (563. 23) illo] Aelio 27*: 
 Staieno cell. § 108 (573. 9) distulit] dispulit T: so 2 (del.). § 190 accusatorem 
 om. 27: 
 
 I quote from the supplements, e. g. 
 
 § 130 in invidiam . . . magnam] in invidia . . . magna 27: § 154 (587. 31) 
 cum summa . . . praemia turn] consumma . . . praemixtum 2 T: cum summum . . . 
 praemium S. § 177 (594. 14) a Stratone] Stratonem 'ST: per Stratonem 3". 
 
 There are a certain number of cases in which 2 yields no support 
 for the readings of ST. Some of these may well be readings of the 
 Cluniacensis, which escaped the vigilance of the French collator. It is 
 possible also that some of them have been erased from the Paris MS. 
 so completely as to leave no trace. Their authenticity is vouched for in 
 some cases where 2 is silent by the testimony of B. I instance the 
 following : 
 
xxxvi INTR OD UCTION 
 
 § ii (544. 22) facile] on. ST and B. § 27 (549. 3) Teano ST and B : 
 Teani Apuli cell. § 29 (549- 26) de eo de quo] de eo . . quo B : de eo quo 
 ST. § 31 (550. 16) Auria] Mia ST: uiua B. § 40 (553. 6) circumforaneum] 
 foranum-STandi?. § 140 (582. 25) posset negare .ST and B: posset se negare cett. 
 
 Similarly, others have the support of Italian marginalia, the 
 importance of which will be shown further on, e. g. 
 
 § 3 (542. 2) puniatur. § 17 (546. 8) adiungerer. § 20 (546. 30) retineretur. 
 § 64 (560. 15) corrumpendi iudicii. § 70 (562. 8) ego dem. § 171 (592. 15) an 
 socrus an. lb. (592. 17) tandem eripuit mors. § 174 (592. 22) casum minime 
 . . . haberet. 
 
 2 contains a large number of readings which have not passed into 
 ST. Many of these are blunders or orthographical peculiarities of the 
 Cluniacensis which Italian scholars either disregarded from the beginning 
 or rapidly eliminated from the vulgate, e. g. 
 
 § 22 (547.18) opprensa (=oppressa), §55 (557.14) qui vuius ( = C. Iunius), 
 § 78 (564. 32) supprestam ( = suppressam), § 96 (570. 4) ex causa parte (=ex 
 parte), § 141 (583. 13) fili inequiciam (=filii nequitiam). 
 
 An interesting case in which the marginalia preserve an abbreviation 
 which explains the corruption in ST is 
 
 § 94 (569. 10) posse] p. 2 (del.) : publice ST. 
 
 These cases are, as would be expected, especially frequent in the 
 supplements, since these are copied from dun., not collated with it, e. g. 
 
 § I0 3 (57 1 - 3°) un os ( = uno), ib. (1. 36) captanus quam (=capta 
 nusquam), § 107 (572. 32) inienio (=ingenio), § 127 (578. 21) haberebantur (i.e. 
 
 re 
 
 ex habebantur), § 130 (579. 19) subcilitionibus ( = subscriptionibus), ib. (1. 21) 
 multitudinem inilicitum ( = multitudini, nemini licitum), ib. (1. 23) magna milia 
 (=magnam ilia), § 176 (593. 24) seruo milium ( = seruom ilium), § 193 (598. 14) 
 cumsistendi (=consistendi), ib. (1. 16) aut turpi ( = aut urbi), § 194 (598. 26) 
 comfido ( = confido), § 199 (599. 32) vostram (so 600. 8 vostra). 
 
 There are indications in the supplements, that the writer found his 
 original difficult to read, e. g. 
 
 § 132 (580. 8) iudicat accepisse a Cluentio pecuniam. After iudicat is 
 a small lacuna. Possibly eum should be supplied. 
 
 § J 79 (594 2 4) eiusmodi Cum] The writer first wrote eiu urn, and 
 
 then filled up the blank space with the remaining letters. 
 
INTRODUCTION xxxvii 
 
 It is interesting to note in the supplements some important differ- 
 ences between 2 and ST. The chief cases are 
 
 § 128 (578. 33) ne . . . delinqueret 2: qui . . . deliquerat ST. § 152 (586. 
 34) eques R. 2: equester ordo ST. § 176 (593. 31) vehementissimis 2: 
 vehementissime ST. § 180 (594. 30) quaerebant ST, om. 2. § 197 (599. n) 
 Iaudationum decreta 2 : laudationem decretam ST. § 200 (600. 9) bonitatem 2 : 
 veritatem ST. 
 
 In all of these editors follow ST, while most other MSS. agree with 
 2. Are these readings of ST due to a more successful decipherment of 
 the Cluniacensis or to Italian ingenuity ? We shall shortly see that the 
 latter is the case. 
 
 The evidence of 2 shows that many variants of ST, to which 
 importance has been attached, are due to a proprius error in the ancestor 
 of these two MSS., e. g. 
 
 § 84 (566. 34) istam dedit conciliationis et gratiae fabulam. 
 
 These words are omitted by ST and bracketed by Baiter. 2 gives 
 the variant iutro (sic) to be inserted after istam, so these words must 
 have been in the Cluniacensis. Similar evidence is yielded by the 
 Excerpts, e. g. : 
 
 § l8 3 (595- 26 ) vi x ullo iis obsisti modo posset] iis ST sol, om. cttt., so 
 also B. 
 
 Among plausible readings of .S sol., contradicted by B, may be 
 mentioned 
 
 § 124 (577. 15) censorium stilum . . . aeque posthac atque ilium dictatorium 
 gladium pertimescamus] om. gladium S. Halm brackets the word. It is however 
 found in B, so its omission in S must be due to an error of that MS. 
 
 The general question as to the character of readings of ST, for 
 which no warrant is to be found in 2, is one of the greatest complexity, 
 and cannot be studied profitably until the evidence furnished by other 
 Italian copies of the speech has been set before the reader. 
 
 I now proceed to the second part of this discussion, viz. the copies 
 of the Cluniacensis made after its arrival in Italy. It is not likely that 
 many independent copies were made directly from it, since if F. Barbara 
 was unable to decipher it, there cannot have been many persons capable 
 of doing so. The Italians of this period did not possess much skill in 
 
xxxviii INTRODUCTION 
 
 palaeography. This is shown by a letter of Poggio, in which he 
 reproaches Niccolo Niccoli for sending him a MS. of Tacitus written 
 litteris Langobardicis. He explains that what he wanted was the 
 transcript of this made by Coluccio, or some other legible copy, nam 
 difficile erit reperire scriptorem qui hum codicem recte legat 1 . It is 
 interesting in this connexion to recollect what happened in the case of 
 the ancient MS. found at Lodi in 1422 (cod. Laudensis), containing the 
 de Oratore, Brutus and Orator. We find the following statement in 
 Voigt 2 : ' The de Oratore was first deciphered by Cosimo of Cremona, 
 the scholars of Milan being unable to read it. Gasparino Barzizza then 
 made a recension of the previously known parts ' (i. e. those found in the 
 codices mutili) 'and the newly discovered MS., which was spread in 
 triumph over Italy. The Brutus was copied by Flavio Blondo, whose 
 transcript is now in the Vatican (Ottoboni, 1592), and soon Italy was full 
 of copies, all of which are derived from this.' It will be noticed that 
 while the Brutus, which was a new work, was necessarily copied through- 
 out, the method followed by Barzizza in the case of the de Oratore was 
 to correct a codex mutilus by entering into it supplements and marginalia 
 from the codex Laudensis. A similar method was adopted by the 
 Italians in the case of Quintilian. Thus Leonardo Bruni says Quinti- 
 lianus tints laboriosissime emendatur. Permulta sunt enim in nostro 
 vetusto codice, quae addenda tuo videantur z . It is, therefore, to be 
 expected that the Italians would not copy throughout the pro Milone, 
 pro Cluentio, and pro Caelio from the Cluniacensis, but would extract 
 from it supplements and marginalia similar to those found in Par. 1 4,749- 
 When tracing the development of the Italian recension, we should in 
 the first place inquire if there are any early dated copies of speeches 
 found only in the Cluniacensis ; also, if there are copies written by 
 particular scholars who were likely to have had the opportunity of using 
 it. When dealing with the bulk of MSS. which display no indication of 
 their date, or the circumstances of their transcription, the evidence 
 provided by 2 furnishes us with a clue. It is clear that those Italian 
 copies, which agree most frequently with the French transcript, 2, are 
 nearest to the fountain-head, and that those are most sophisticated which 
 present corrections and conjectures in place of the corruptions which the 
 testimony of 2 shows to have existed in the Cluniacensis.

INTRODUCTION xxxix 
 
 The most interesting Italian MSS. known to me are the following : 
 
 A = La.ur.plut. XL VIII. 10 (Lag. 10). 
 
 t = Perus. Bibl. Commun. E. 71. 
 
 X = Laur. plut. XLVIII. 25 (Lag. 25). 
 
 i/f = Laur. (Gadd.) XC. sup. 69. 1 and 2. 
 
 b = S. Marci 255, now in the National Library at Florence (Lag. 6). 
 
 Of minor importance are 
 
 a- = Pistoiensis, Bibl. Forteguerr. A. 32. 
 
 <£ = Laur. LII. 1 (Lag. 65), 
 
 a) = Laur. XLVIIL 26 (Lag. 26). 
 
 The importance of A will be seen at once from a subscript™ which 
 it contains, viz. 
 
 Post mille cccc quinto decimo Salvatoris anno quinto Id. Febr. hoc volumen 
 orationum xxvm M. T. Ciceronis, quod in ccc chartis redactum est, Ioannes 
 Arretinus absolvit Cosmae de Medicis Ioannis F. 
 
 This subscriptio is published in Bandini's Catalogue of the Lauren- Laur. 
 tian Library, and is reproduced by Halm in his Handschriftenkunde XLVin - I0 - 
 der Ciceron. Schriften (p. 19), and by Zumpt in his Preface to the pro 
 Murena. It is, however, singular and significant of the contempt for 
 historical and chronological considerations shown by all editors that no 
 one has drawn attention to the fact that the MS. was finished early in 
 the year in which the Cluniacensis is supposed to have reached Italy. 
 Bandini speaks of the recens aetas of the MS., and merely draws attention 
 to its orthography, which he considers archaic, an unfortunate remark 
 since this is the same throughout the MS., which except in the Rosciana 
 and Mureniana is vulgar in character. Zumpt quotes the colophon 
 without remark, and immediately goes on to claim for the undated and 
 highly corrected Lag. 9 special connexion with Poggio. 
 
 Ioannes Arretinus wrote otherMSS., e.g. Laur. LXXVIII. 23.LXXIX. 
 7 and 11, LXXXII. 6, Vat. 3237, all of which possess similar colophons. 
 He has been identified by De Nolhac l with Giovanni Tortelli, the author 
 of a treatise upon orthography, who was known under this name. This 
 identification is very tempting, since it would be natural to expect that 
 a competent scholar would be chosen to execute the first transcript of 
 the Cluniacensis, just as Cosimo of Cremona was selected to decipher the 
 Laudensis. There were, however, several persons at this period known 
 
 1 La Bibliothcque de Fulvio Orsini, p. 197. 
 
x l INTRODUCTION 
 
 under this name, and there are chronological difficulties in the way of the 
 identification with Tortelli. Mehus 1 distinguishes between Ioannes 
 Arretinus, a friend and correspondent of Poggio, and Ioannes Arretinus 
 calligraphic. I was led to suspect that the writer of A was the calli- 
 grapher, not the scholar, and Professor Sabbadini, whom I consulted 
 upon the subject, says that this is undoubtedly so. 
 
 It is unlikely that A can have been copied directly from the illegible 
 Cluniacensis, as it is written in a beautiful hand, and the scribe appears 
 to have had no uncertainty as to what was before him. In all proba- 
 bility a rough copy was made in the first place, and A was copied from 
 this. In order to allow time for all this, we must conclude that the 
 Cluniacensis arrived in Italy rather earlier than has been previously 
 supposed, i. e. some time in 1414. The Florentine copyist went to work 
 in a different spirit from that of the French scribes who produced 2. 
 His object was not to execute a facsimile of the original, but to make 
 a copy which would be read with pleasure by Cosimo de' Medici. 
 Accordingly he removed orthographical peculiarities which survive in 
 2 2 , corrected obvious corruptions, and made some conjectures, generally 
 infelicitous. He was a good palaeographer, and found no difficulty in 
 abbreviations and symbols which had puzzled the writer of 2. He also 
 succeeded in deciphering some passages which the French copyists had 
 given up in despair. Thus Mar. § 72 after tenuiores A adds prima m 
 nondum qui ea suis, where 2 leaves a lacuna of fifteen letters, and in the 
 same section adsequebantur, where 2 gives adsequi before a lacuna of five 
 letters. So § 85 after impedituri sint A fills up the beginning of the 
 lacuna with the words ilia pestis immanis et, and § 86 where after con- 
 fectus 2' leaves a lacuna of twenty-two letters, while S 2 adds in the margin 
 lacrimis ac memore perditus, A has morbo, lacrimis ac maerore perditus. 
 
 1 should here be inclined to think morbo correct. That, however, the 
 supplements of A are not above suspicion is to be seen from § 85, where 
 
 2 has versabitur furor, while A fills up the lacuna with 
 
 the very inept supplement L. Catilinae. On the other hand it may be 
 noted that A omits § 57 the words DE POSTVMi CRIMINIBVS DE SERVI 
 ADVLESCENTIS, which are found in several Italian MSS. as well as in 2. 
 
 1 Vita Ambrosii, I. p. 448. 
 
 2 He, however, generally retains the spelling luxoria, and frequently has forms like existumo, 
 volgus. In Rose. § 108 (59. 9) he has the archaic form quur. On the other hand Jiose. § 134 
 (66. 22) he gives coquos where several Italian MSS. have cocos with 2. 
 
INTRODUCTION xli 
 
 A, as is to be expected, has a number of striking agreements 
 with 2, e.g. 
 
 Rose. § i (30. 2) surrexerim is 2 : surrexerimus A : surrexerim cell. § 30 
 (38. 15) decus 2 A : dedecus cell. § 51 (43. 18) assiduos 2M : assiduus celt. 
 § 67 (48. 4) parentium 2An: parentum cell. § 68 (48. 7) sQtiius 2 mg. : 
 sumptu||us A : sumptus cell. § 89 (54. 4) paternorum 2Am: patronorum celt. 
 § 102 (57. 19) ut dissimulare 2^4 : ut si dissimulare celt. § 138 (67. 35) 
 decerne || 2 : decernere A : decerne ceil. 
 
 Mur. § 7 (719. 7) cattio 2 : captio A : accusatio cell. § 13 (721. 14) marre 
 anni ripere 2.4: marce arripere cell. § 18 (723. 6) momentu SAw*: momento 
 cell. § 26 (725. 29) aios 2A : aio cell. lb. (726. 10) rudebantur 2 : ridebantur 
 A : videbantur ceil. lb. (1. 12) conspicios 2A : conspicio cett. § 30 (728. 3) duae 
 sint artes 24 : duae sunt artes cett. § 73 (745. 13) vitricos 2A : vitrico cett. 
 § 86 (750. 4) cum 2^4 : causa cell. 
 
 It will be noticed that three times in the pro Murena A agrees with 
 2 in preserving the superfluous -s final, which from time to time occurred 
 in the Cluniacensis 1 . 
 
 In two cases A puts an interpretation upon signs occurring in the 
 
 Cluniacensis which have been reproduced by 2, viz. 
 
 11 11 
 
 Rose. § 104 (58. 2) quid tu vir omptume ecquid 2 : et quid tu, vir optime A, 
 
 taking the symbols to denote transposition. 
 
 Mur. § 86 (760. 16) intuetur 2: tuetur A (and B\ confining the obelization 
 
 to the first syllable. 
 
 In some passages where the Cluniacensis was difficult to read the 
 solution offered by A is inferior to that found in later Italian copies, e. g. 
 
 Rose. § 55 (44. 19) Remmiam] rem miram A. § 76 (50. 16) arcessivit] 
 arcessunt A. § 133 (66. 16) quid praeco enumeraret] quid praetium numerare A. 
 
 Mur. § 32 (729. 12) pugnax et acer et] pugna excitaret A. § 90 (752. 2) 
 cupidissimum otii] cupidissime A. 
 
 It has certain proprii errores which I have not found in other Italian 
 MSS., e.g. 
 
 Rose. § 3 (30. 17) esse propter nobilitatem et amplitudinem potest. § 6 
 (31. 5) et fortissimo om. § 14 (33. 19) vobis om. § 18 (34. 24) est suspiciosum 
 adhuc. § 39 (40. 22) nimirum om. § 50 (43. 6) convenerunt] tenuerunt. 
 § 76 (50. 15) falsa] flagitia. § 116 (61. n) socium om. 
 
 Mur. § 25 (725. 15) prope om. § 51 (736. 29) esse duo corpora. § 70 
 
 1 See p. xix. 
 [I. 10] g 
 
xlii INTR OD UCTION 
 
 (743. 31) concedam] contendam. § 73 (745. 13) suum] sane. § 77 (746. 26) 
 tamen per monitorem] causam per monitores. 
 
 A peculiar feature of A is that in the Rosciana it ends with the 
 words ista aticto (pp. 72-3) omitting most of § 154. 
 
 The Miloniana and Caeliana are in A thoroughly vulgar, and show 
 no trace of readings taken from the Cluniacensis. In the Cluentiana 
 the first four lacunae characteristic of the deteriores are found in it. The 
 last part of the speech, however, viz. §§ 192-202, omitted by them, is 
 given in A. This I consider to have been added from the Cluniacensis. 
 Ioannes Arretinus could not help noticing the addition at the end of the 
 speech in the Cluniacensis. It was not until the illegible MS. was 
 carefully collated that it was found to contain the other passages 
 omitted by the vulgar MSS. 1 Confirmation of this theory is furnished 
 by two colophons to the pro Cluentio, which I shall shortly quote, found 
 in Perus. E. 71 (tt) and Laur. LII. 1 (<£), and it is, I think, verified by 
 the fact that in these sections A has noteworthy agreements with 2, 
 against all or nearly all other Italian copies, e. g. 
 
 § J 93 (59 8 - r 6) aut ur bi] aut turpi 2A. § 196 (599. 5) iudiciumque] 
 iudicium qui 2A. § 197 (599. 8) existumare "ZA. ib. Ferentani] Frentrani 2A. 
 § 199 (1. 32) vostramque SA. ib. (1. 34) crudelitate et scelere] crudelitatem et 
 sceleri SA. § 202 (600. 27) iniquus] iniquos 2A (and B). ib. (1. 28) parentem] 
 parentum SA. ib. non animum] animum 2 A. 
 
 It will be noticed that in four cases A preserves orthographical 
 peculiarities of the Cluniacensis. 
 
 Although the fides of A is very inferior to that of 2, since it is 
 tainted by conjecture, its importance is great on account of the light 
 which it throws upon the development of the Italian vulgate. Also, A 
 is an independent witness, and when its testimony coincides with that of 
 2 it can hardly be doubted that we have the genuine reading of the 
 Cluniacensis. I have, therefore, judged it proper to combine a collation 
 of A in the portions taken from the Cluniacensis, viz. in the pro Roscio, 
 pro Mnrena, and Cluent. \\ 192-202, by marking with an asterisk its 
 
 Since this has been in print I have found fresh evidence in the Enarratio Antonii Luschi, 
 written at the beginning of the fifteenth century. His last note is on § 190, after which he says, 
 finem determinatum et cerium huius orationis habere non potui. Also, he has no note on any 
 passage contained in the other supplements except § 103 dixit-ne . . . Falcula. This, however, is 
 quoted by Quintil. ix. 2. 8, so the source is obvious. 
 
INTRODUCTION xliii 
 
 agreements with 2 or with the lemma, and, where it differs from both, 
 giving its readings at the foot of the page. 
 
 The readings of A, as reported by Lagomarsini, have not attracted 
 much attention. Halm and Zumpt set undue store upon sophisticated 
 MSS. such as 5 (M) or Lag. 9. The first editor to speak well of it was 
 C. F. W. Miiller, who joins it with Lagg. 24, 26, 65 as being the four best 
 of these MSS. Nohl, who in his Preface to the Mureniana (1889) shows 
 a firmer grasp of the textual problem than previous scholars, places it 
 with Lagg. 13, 18, 24, 26, 65 in his class j3. 
 
 The Perugia MS. (it), like A, is dated. It was written in 1416, i. e. Penis. 
 one year after A. We are thus enabled to study the development of the ' 7 '" 
 Italian vulgate during those twelve months. 
 
 The MS. is thus described by Mazzatinti : 
 
 Orazioni di Cicerone. La prima e Pro Cluentio animadverti iudices 
 etc. fin. con alcune postille alle orazioni e con 1' oraz. Pro Murena x che 
 termina 'amictimus Anno Domini 1416,' etc. 
 
 I was prevented by shortness of time from myself visiting Perugia 
 in order to collate it. The collation which I have was made for me by 
 Mr. E. O. Winstedt, Senior Demy of Magdalen College, Oxford, whose 
 kindness I gratefully acknowledge. 
 
 It is clear that it is not copied from A, since 
 
 (1) None oitheproprii errores of A previously mentioned occur in it. 
 I do not lay stress upon the fact that it contains the last section of the 
 Rosciana, which is omitted by A, since this might have been added to 
 a transcript of A. 
 
 (2) In many cases it agrees with 2 against A, and most other MSS., e.g. 
 
 eius 
 Rose. § 117 (61. 19) de scelere 2: de ejus scelere tt : de eius scelere A cett. 
 
 Mur. § 8 (719. 31) si exiceperis 2: sic exiceperis ir\ et si ceperis A cett. 
 
 § 57 (738- 25) DE POSTVMI CRIMINIBVS DE SERVI ADVLESCENT. %TT (and 
 
 x 2 ): om.A x ^. 
 
 it is not so closely connected with 2 as A is. I quoted previously 
 seventeen cases of striking agreement between "2A. In two only of these 
 does it = 2>A, viz. Rose. § 67 parentium; Mur. § 18 momentu. On the 
 other hand there are a large number of minor agreements between *2,Att 
 against other MSS., e.g. 
 
 1 This must be an error for Sex. Hose, which ends with amittimus. The last word of the 
 Mur. is spondeam.

 The affinities of -n are, as was to be expected, closer with A than 
 with 2, e. g.

 A few conjectures, or corrections, appear in it, e. g.

 regibus quibuscum it : omnibus quibus regibus cum 2 : omnibus quibuscum

 The end of the pro Cluentio is found in 71-, as in A . It is accompanied by the 
 very interesting note, Incipil finis huius noviler repertus. In four out of the nine 
 cases of special agreement previously quoted (p. xli) ir = 2A, viz. 598. 16 aut 
 turpi, 599. 8 Frentrani, 600. 27 iniquos, ib. 28 om. non. A special agreement of

 Laur.ui.i. I now turn to <$> (Laur. LII. 1, Lag. 65). This MS. is not dated, but 
 
 a colophon to the pro Cluentio, viz. Finis Cluentianae noviter repertus, 
 would seem to show that it is an early copy. Its readings are 
 generally identical with those of is, as may be seen from the fact that # 
 agrees with is in all the instances quoted above of minor agreements 
 between 2 A is, and all the cases given to show special affinity between 
 is and A. The only differences are in the cases quoted from it to show 
 special agreement with 2. Here <j> compares unfavourably with is in four

 cases out of five, viz. Rose. § 117 de ems scelere 4> ; Mur. § 57 ADOLE- 
 SCENTIA (j> ; Rose. § 67 parentum <j> ; Mur.§ 18 momento <f>. On the other 
 hand ^f«r. § 8 </> gives si exiceperis with 2. 
 To these I would add

 I should not, however, consider that 4> was copied from ir, since 
 occasionally it is nearer to what must have been the reading of the 
 Cluniacensis, e. g. 
 
 Rose. § 89 (54. 4) paternorum 2L4<£: patronorum n-crx^. § 107 (58. 28)

 The conjectures noticed in w are also found in <$>, which contains 
 others peculiar to itself, e. g.

 deprecabor] deprecor <j>. § 62 (741. 1) cui 2 (sui Halm) : eius Airxf : eiusdem <j,. 
 
 I would note that <\> is wrongly reported in Halm's edition to be free 
 from the usual dislocation Mur. § 15 (723. 7), and to read /arte Mur. § 55 
 (738. 6), where it has parata with all other MSS. 
 
 In the/™ Cluentio the lacunae §§ 102-107 and 126-132, character- 
 istic of the deteriores, exist in <j>. It also has a mutilation peculiar to 
 itself, viz. it ends at § 146 with the words legum denique ideirco. After 
 these comes the newly discovered end of the speech, §§ 192-203. In 
 
xlvi INTRODUCTION 
 
 these eleven sections <p agrees throughout with "2A, as against ST. It 
 does not, however, exhibit such striking agreements with 2 as those 
 previously quoted from Air. Of the nine passages there given 4> = ~2,A 
 in two only, viz. § 193 aut turpi, § 203 animum (without non) : in the 
 other seven it reads with the other MSS. against 2A or 1A it. 
 Lanr. While n and its congener (p 1 are the most authentic Italian copies 
 
 xLvm. 25. after ^ peculiar interest attaches to x ° n account of its remarkable 
 though sporadic agreements with 2. The most striking cases are 
 Mur. § 85 ilia pestis immanis A-k^i : om. 2^.

 It is not a little remarkable that the writer of x> ° r the MS. from 
 which it is derived, should on three occasions in the same section have 
 failed to make out exactly the same words as those which baffled the 
 French scribes. Another singular case is 
 
 Mur. § 51 (737. 3). Here 2 before erupit has in the text the curious word 
 Cue (with marginal variants que and cur). Cue is also given by x' sol. : cum Am// 1 : 
 qui x 2 : turn i/\ 
 
 Other cases are 
 
 Rose. § 33 (39. 13) servare per conservare posicionem 2^', variant cett. 
 § 72 (49. 7) animam 2^ : animum cett. 
 
 Mur. § 13 (721. 16) cumspicere 2 X ] : conspicere Airty: circumspicere x 2 - 
 § 3 2 (7 2 9- I2 ) exetaceret 2: exaceraret xV '■ excitaret Airty. 
 
 Together with these readings, which testify to fresh examination of 
 the Cluniacensis, we find in x a number of corrections and conjectures, e.g. 
 
 Rose. § 17 (34. 17) sciam] scientiam x . § 27 (37. 15) qua . . . usus x' = 
 quam . . . usus celt. § 43 (41. 14) patres familias x, ed. Veneta : patres familiae

 1 As <j> nearly always agrees with 77, I have not mentioned its readings except where they 
 differ from those of jr.

 X (and 2?) : alienissima cett. 
 
 It is obvious that x contains the results of much critical ingenuity, 
 as well as of a fresh collation of the Cluniacensis. 
 
 In the pro Cluentio x is one of Classen's codices integri (cf. p. ix), 
 i. e. all the lacunae have been filled up. In the supplement at the end 
 of the speech, where we are able to compare it with Air, we can trace 
 the influence of correction and conjecture, e. g. none of the nine readings 
 quoted above from 2A are found in it. On the other hand, neither in 
 this nor in the other supplements does it yield any support to the 
 special readings of ST. 
 
 I now turn to \jr (Gadd. XC. sup. 69. 1 and a). This MS. consists of Gadd. xc. 
 two volumes, both written in the same hand, and containing the name of snp ' 9 " 
 a previous owner, Bemardi de Puccinis. It has been injured by damp, 
 especially in the Cluentiana. It contains, together with a number of 
 other speeches, all of those discovered by Poggio. 
 
 This MS. possesses extraordinary interest on account of the 
 marginalia which it contains and the light which they throw upon the 
 development of the latest Italian recension found in 5. 
 
 In the Rosciana and Mureniana ty shows traces of a fresh exami- 
 nation of the Cluniacensis in its text as apart from the marginalia. 
 I have noted the following agreements of i// 1 with 2, or 2A (%) in the 
 pro Murena. 
 
 § 11 (720. 34) triumphares 2^. § 12 (721. 4) abiciendum 2^i/r. §13(721.

 It will be seen that the text of ^ is highly composite. The 
 marginalia are still more so. They consist of

 The corrections not adopted by S are few in number. I have

 The dependence of 5 upon i/r 2 is clearly shewn by the following cases

 I would draw particular attention to the omission by 5 of the 
 words quasi ipse non fecerit in § %$. In •»//■ we find quasi ipse non 
 
 cat 
 
 fecerit. The omission, therefore, which editors have treated as accidental, 
 is due to a bold, but not improbable conjecture *. 
 
 The close connexion thus established between \//- 2 and -S in the 
 case of these two speeches will be found to exist in other speeches 
 contained by both MSS. 
 S. Marci I now proceed to discuss the light thrown by \}r upon the other 
 
 265 ' speeches found in it which we know to have existed in the Clunia- 
 
 censis, viz. the pro Milone, pro Caelio, and pro Cluentio. In their case 
 we have fresh evidence furnished by another MS., S. Marci 255 (b), 
 which I have not previously dealt with as it does not contain the 
 pro Roscio and pro Murena. This MS. was used by Lagomarsini, who 
 described it as S. Marci 106, or Lag. 6. It was termed b by Classen, 
 who drew attention to the marginalia which it contains in the pro 
 Cluentio, on account of their agreement with his melior familia, viz. 
 ST. I was naturally anxious to see these marginalia, but had great 
 difficulty in identifying the MS. This was due partly to the fact 
 that the codices Marciani have been distributed between the Laurentian 
 
 1 The symbol vacat is also employed in xp to delete the words exercitum Luculli signi- 
 fied, § 37. 
 
INTRODUCTION li 
 
 and National Libraries in Florence, and partly to an error of Lago- 
 marsini, who took the number 106 from a list of contents pasted 
 within the volume, disregarding the number %$$ printed on the binding. 
 The signature of Lagomarsini, entered by him in MSS. which he 
 consulted, has been erased. 
 
 At the end of the volume is entered Georgii Antonii Vespucii Liber, 
 and on the fly-sheet at the beginning Conventus S. Marci habitus a 
 fratre Georgio Ant. Vespuccio eiusdem conventus professo 1499. Possibly 
 the number 106 on the list of contents previously referred to may have 
 denoted the place of the MS. in the collection of Vespucci '. 
 
 The contents of b are very similar to those of i//-. It comprises 
 thirty-one speeches, all of which except the Verrines also occur in \fr. 
 It does not, however, contain the pro Sex. Roscio or pro Murena, and 
 has only two out of the speeches subsequently found by Poggio, viz. 
 those pro Rab. perd. and pro Roscio Comoedo ; while i/r has the whole 
 of them. I was gratified to find, as I expected, in the pro Caelio 
 and pro Milone similar marginalia to those reported by Classen in the 
 case of the pro Cluentio, and to observe that in all three speeches they 
 were nearly identical with those which occur in \j/. 
 
 That b is prior to \jr is obvious at a glance. Thus on several 
 occasions b has supplements entered in the margin or upon an inserted 
 page, which are incorporated in the text of f, e.g. pro Cluentio §§ 102- 
 107, the first lacuna in the mutili, pro Flacco §§47~53> a passage omitted 
 by most MSS., andpro Caelio §§ 70 to end, omitted by many vulgar MSS. 
 
 Also, many corrections in b are followed by f, e. g.

Hi INTRODUCTION 
 
 I do not wish it to be inferred that this adoption is normal. The 
 constant formula is b 2 = \)r 2 , not =i//- x . 
 
 The question naturally arises, is \j/ copied from b ? That ty 1 is 
 not copied from b is obvious. The basis of both is thoroughly vulgar, 
 but their vulgarity is different. This will appear from a single 
 instance, e.g. 
 
 e vado e vado 
 
 Cael. § 51 (1017. 10) e vadis] evadisset b : evadens i/r. 
 
 That the marginalia (1/r 2 ) have been copied from b into \j/ is quite 
 possible. In that case, however, considerable additions must have 
 been made from various sources. 
 
 Among the readings of b 2 ^r occur a large number of variants 
 derived from the Cluniacensis, e. g. 
 
 Mil. § 3 intuentes] confluentes 26^. § n iubent] volunt IBHb" 1 ^. 
 § 50 (noctu . . . occidisset) Ib" 1 ^ et sic fere H. § 59 de incestu] incesti SZfty. 
 § 74 harenam SBHbY- 
 
 Cael. § 18 ex rei p. causa] ex publica causa 23y. § 24 (Coponii . . . 
 doluerunt) 2<$Y 2 - § 49 (sed etiam proterva meretrix) 2b 2 \j/ 2 . 
 
 Clu. § 10 [satisfacere] 2#y. ib. hie . . . accipere 25Y- >b. molestia SJty'. 
 § 1 2 [non pudicitia] 2#ty s . 
 
 Other variants are drawn from different sources. In some cases 
 b has already adopted in the text readings of the Cluniacensis, and 
 the old reading is given sup. lin., e. g. 
 
 oratori 
 
 Mil. § 2 orationi IB HE: oratori celt. : orationi b. 
 
 modo 
 
 § 11 non 2BU: non modo cell. : non b. 
 
 A large number of vulgar errors found in the dell, are replaced 
 by readings taken from the meliores, but not necessarily drawn from 
 the Cluniacensis. Other marginalia are inferior readings drawn from 
 a vulgar source, e. g. 
 
 esset 
 
 Mil. § 40 (1165. 10) factus est] factus est dip. § 53 (1168. 24) versabatur 
 IB, Gellius: versabantur HETV: versarentur #ty. § 81 (1177. 9) cuiquam] 
 cuique b^. 
 
 Also, b contains a number of conjectures, as will be seen from 
 the first two readings quoted from the pro Milone in this discussion, 
 viz. § 62 percito b 2 . § 69 (immutatus) b 2 . 
 
 The collation of the Cluniacensis used by the corrector of b is 
 
INTRODUCTION liii 
 
 copious in the case of the pro Cluentio, though by no means so minute 
 as that which is furnished by 2. In that of the pro Milone it is 
 comparatively superficial, and in that of the pro Caelio it is scanty. 
 There is a marked agreement between b 2 ^ both in what they omit 
 and also in what they record. Among small points which occur in 
 both MSS. I note, e.g. 
 
 Cael. § 13 (1004. 15) esset (et) audacia <$y. § 50 (1016. 29) Clodia] 
 
 a ad 
 
 Clodie b^ij/ 2 . § 52 (1017. 19) quam ob rem <$Y 2 . 
 
 We find in yjr evidence of fresh use of the Cluniacensis. In the 
 first place it contains the mediaeval argument to the Miloniana given 
 by 2// (also E), which does not occur in b. Also, we can trace a 
 considerable influx of fresh readings drawn from this source, e. g. 
 
 Mil. § 6 (1154. 8) quia 2ify 2 : si celt. § 7 (1. 15) <mihi) ~2BH^. § 14 
 (1156. 26) (Appia) 2Zfy 2 . § 49 (1167. 29) noctu 2ify 2 : nocte celt. § 66 
 (1172. 16) (pro) 2Zty 2 . § 68 (1173. 10) ante testaretur 2Zfy 2 : attestaretur cell. 
 § 79 (1176. 28) si esset in] si est et in 2Zfy a . § 99 (1182. 9) saltern 2/fy 2 : 
 tamen cell. 
 
 Cael. § 56 (1019. 15) evolvere 27i/< 2 : volvere celt. § 60 (1021. 2) illam 2^ : 
 aliam celt. § 77 (1026. 8) (pertinacia) 2^ 2 . § 78 (1026. 18) patitur 2i// a : 
 datur celt. 
 
 Clu. § 23 (548. 1) perpropinquus 2/ty 2 : propinquus celt. ib. (1. 2) (multis) 
 2/y. § 24 (1. 5) (et) interfectum 2i/r 2 . ib. (I. 8) A. Aurius (is) 2i/A 
 
 Other contributions of \jr 2 are gathered from various sources. In 
 some cases where the reading of Clun. has been received into the 
 text the old reading is given sup. tin., e.g. 
 
 Cael. § 7 1 referretur 2^ : reficeretur 1/r 2 cell. 
 
 In others the variant is taken from the deteriores, e. g. 
 
 Cael. § 69 (et pervulgata) i/^ 2 dell. 
 
 Or from some unknown but worthless source, e. g. 
 
 Mil. § 2 (1153. 2) eundem] eum ^. § 6 (n54- 6) deprecaturi] precaturi i/- 2 . 
 § i5(i I 57- I0 ) oporteret] oportet f 2 . 
 
 It is interesting to notice that ^ 2 frequently gives the reading of 
 b, e. g. Cael. § 46 
 
 quare in hoc genere labor conficiendi homines a studio deterret \j/ 1 
 quae res in hoc genere homines a labore studioque discendi deterret <5</A 
 
liv INTRODUCTION 
 
 This would support the theory that the writer of \jr made use of b. 
 Others are due to conjecture, e. g. 
 
 usus 
 
 Cael. § 64 (1022. 8) velui] verum i/A § 72 (1025. 2) iis autem fuit] is aut 
 fuit >j/. § 73 (1025. 5) paulum] paululum i// 2 .

 Besides the evidence which these MSS. furnish concerning the 
 readings of the lost Cluniacensis, they also enable us to understand 
 the process by which the Italian vulgate of these speeches was con- 
 structed. The best known representative of this is 5 (Monac. 15,734) 
 to which I have so frequently referred. I have not thought it necessary to 
 encumber this discussion by recording the readings of 5 in the case of 
 the pro Milone and pro Caelio. In these, as in the Rosciana and Mu- 
 reniana, S nearly always adopts in the text the reading of \j/ 2 , or b 2 \jr 2 . 
 It would be idle to quote instances since it is only necessary for the 
 reader to glance at the Apparatus Criticus in Baiter and Halm's edition. 
 
 With regard, however, to the Cluentiana very important con- 
 sequences follow from the results thus arrived at. In this speech 5 
 and its congener T have been considered to form the melior familia, 
 being derived from some unknown and unpolluted source. All their 
 readings have been quoted with equal respect, and the same authority 
 has been attached to all. I contend that they are in basis vulgar, but 
 have been corrected by an influx of variants from the Cluniacensis, 
 together with a farrago of readings gathered from many sources. 
 
 I have taken the trouble to analyse the recension of this speech 
 found in S, or ST, with the following results. I have taken into 
 account special errors in S, but have not always regarded those peculiar 
 to T, since this MS. is admittedly inferior and has a very large number 
 of proprii errores in the shape of omissions. I find 
 
 (a) Readings from the Cluniacensis attested by 2b 2 \jr 2 . There 
 are about 107 important cases including most well-known variants of 
 the melior familia. 
 
 (b) Readings attested by 2 only. These are about 250 in number, 
 most of them being minor points — e.g. collocations of words — passed 
 over by the first Italian collators. It is, therefore, obvious that after 
 the collation represented by ^ 2 a fresh and minute examination of 
 the Cluniacensis took place. 
 
INTRODUCTION lv 
 
 (c) Readings supported by d 2 f 2 (sil. 2). These are about thirty 
 in number. Some striking cases have already been mentioned on 
 p. xxxvi, to which I here add, e. g. 
 
 § 6 (542. 24) si b 2 \pST: ac si cett. § 27 (549. 3) Teani Apuli] Teano 
 b^ST, so also B. § 29 (549. 25) auditis (non) sine b^S. § 83 (566. 17)

 ctum) cum iis iudicibus PS: Voc. cum iis iud. (coniunctum) i/A 
 
 This part of the inquiry is somewhat difficult on account of the 
 ravages committed in the margin of 2 in this speech by a person 
 who erased completely or partially a large number of the marginalia. 
 In the cases, however, above mentioned, I could not see any mark of 
 erasures. There are others in which an erasure is noticeable in the 
 margin, which may have obliterated the reading given by b 2 ^ 2 , e.g. 
 
 § 88 (567. 33) (partim) autem 6^ ST. § 89 (568. 9) libeant] iubeant 
 Pij/'ST. § 119 (576. 9) exempli causa ^ST: exemplis cett. 
 
 (d) Readings of ST or S, not supported by 2, or 6 2 \jr 2 - These 
 are about 125 in number, not including certain cases where there is 
 an erasure in the margin of 2, which may conceal the reading of 
 ST, viz. 
 
 § 18 (546. 14) reticeri. § 53 (557. 4) se cum Cleophanto. § 58 (558. 12-14) 
 ut . . . videretur. § 91 (568. 18) iura essent. § 125 (577. 25) manu sua. § 160 
 (589. 22) fingenda esse sibi. § 171 (592. 15) reliquisset. 
 
 The original contributions of S(T) may be classified thus : 
 
 (1) Proprii errores, to which no editor attaches any importance. 
 These are forty-six in number. 
 
 (2) Variety in the collocation of words. Of this there are fifteen 
 cases, the chief being 
 
 § 2 7 (549- 7) nora undecima cum valens in publico ST, edd.: cum hora 
 undecima in publico valens cett. § 156 (588. 14) causam dicit eques Rom. 
 ST, edd. : eques Rom. causam dicit cett. 
 
 (3) Omissions. I noticed thirty-six cases, the most important 
 being

 The influx of corrections and conjectures into ST can best be 
 
INTRODUCTION lvii 
 
 observed in the Supplements, and especially in that at the end of 
 the speech (§§ 193-302), since in this we can control the process by 
 the evidence of the early copies A and it, written in the years 1415 
 and 1416. I draw attention to the following cases

 It follows from this analysis that the recension of .S in this 
 speech is similar to that which it offers in the Miloniana. In both 
 speeches its basis is vulgar, but it has been corrected by variants 
 drawn from the Cluniacensis and from various other sources. If so, 
 the criticism of this speech must proceed on somewhat different lines. 
 Apart from the fragments of the palimpsest (P) there appear to be 
 only two sources of information, viz. M and the readings of the 
 Cluniacensis recorded by the French and Italian collators (2l> 2 ^ 2 ). The 
 readings of ST are superfluous when they agree with these, and where 
 they disagree or are unsupported are to be regarded with suspicion. 
 
 After this digression I proceed to briefly describe other MSS. to 
 which I have called attention, viz. 
 
 t (Pistoiensis, Bibl. Forteguerr. A. 32). Pist. A. 
 
 This MS. contains the speeches pro Milone and pro Sex. Roscio, 
 in addition to those pridie quam in exsilium tret, cum populo gratias 
 egit, cum senatui gratias egit and the Breviarium Sexti Rufi. Its 
 interest lies in the fact that it was written by Sozomenus, the friend 
 of Poggio, who, when at the Council of Constance, made a transcript 
 of Asconius superior to those executed by Poggio and Bartolommeo 
 da Montepulciano. 
 
 The authenticity of <r is beyond question. It is written in the 
 same hand as the Asconius of Sozomenus (Pist. Fort, A. 37) and is 
 signed by Sozomenus. Its contents, however, are disappointing. In 
 [I. 10] i 
 
lviii INTRODUCTION 
 
 the pro Milone it is thoroughly vulgar, and shows no trace of readings 
 taken from the Cluniacensis. In the Rosciana I cannot regard it as an 
 independent transcript. It is true that in this speech there are a few 
 lacunae which indicate that Sozomenus was puzzled by a word, which 
 he found it difficult to read, viz. 
 
 § 59 (45- 2 6) negligentiam] negligin . . . <j. § 66 (47. 23) elui om. <r in lac. 
 (leui 2Ait<1> : leni x</r). § 74 (49. 29) cur om. a- in lac. (quur 2-mp 1 : quire x)- 
 § 128 (65. 3) et ficto] e a-. 
 
 The internal evidence, however, forbids us to consider it a direct 
 or even an early copy. It is very rarely that it agrees with 2 as 
 against the other Italian copies. The chief case is 
 
 a 
 
 § 133 (66. 16) quid praeco enumeraret] quid preconum numerare 2: quid 
 praeco enumerare o- : quid praeco enuntiare x : quid praetium numerare (enum. 
 i/' 2 nuntiare ir) cell. 
 
 As a rule it agrees with the inferior MSS. where they break 
 away from 2A tt, e.g. 
 
 § 31 (38. 20) minae terrores 2^4 ir : in me terrores cr^. § 52 (43. 26) perraro 
 A-n-ip 1 : errario {j/: raro o-^i/' 2 . § 64 (47. 7) tam esse] sa est 2: sane Air : satis 
 est <r>(i/r. § 125 (64. 2) ac (ac || 2) libere ~2A tt: aut libere o-)^- 
 
 We find in 0- some good corrections, e. g. 
 
 § 39 (40. 27) cum officio coniuncta <rxV : om. coniuncta 2^4ttx 1 . § 83 
 (52. 17) ibi a 3 (coni. Steinmetz) : ubi celt. § 134 (67. 1) quam officina <rxf 
 (and 2?) : om. quam 2Att. 
 
 Also, some bad conjectures, e. g. 
 
 § 8 (32. 4) spoliis ex] spoliis sex 2tt : spoliis Sex. A^: spoliis Sex. Roscii 
 "X- § 2 3 (3 6 - I2 ) iudices exturbat tti/' 1 : iudices sex (Sex. A) 2^4 X : Sex. Ro. iud. 
 turbat ar. 
 
 It is hard to suppose that Sozomenus, who produced so faithful 
 a transcript of Asconius, would have allowed himself this license, if he 
 had had the Cluniacensis before him. I do not, therefore, attach much 
 importance to <r, but as being the work of Sozomenus it claims some 
 attention, and it will at least serve the purpose of a parens deteriorum.

 lms is a somewhat puzzling MS. It was thought by Niebuhr 
 
 to be the best of the Lagg. for the pro Sex. Roscio, and both Muller 
 
INTRODUCTION lix 
 
 and Nohl rank it among the better Lagg. for the pro Murena. It 
 contains in addition to these two speeches the so-called Lingonenses: 
 i. e. it is a sylloge of the new orations discovered by Poggio. It is 
 written in several hands, possibly in six or seven. The first writer 
 transcribed the pro Caecina (ff. 1-13 r, f. 13 v being left blank). The 
 speeches de lege agraria are written in a smaller hand, which continues 
 down to ii. 71 siccitate aut in (f. 23 v). A third and rougher hand 
 begins (f. ai r) with § 68 atque hoc carmen, repeating a passage already 
 written by the second scribe. The repetition was corrected by the 
 sign vacat. This writer continues to in Pisonem § 40, this speech 
 coming after those de lege agraria, and is succeeded by a fourth 
 copyist who also repeats at the beginning of f. 34 r a passage already 
 written by his predecessor. The fourth scribe ends in the middle 
 of f. 58 v with Rose. Com. § 19 fraudavit Roscius. Est hoc primum, 
 leaving the rest of the page blank. Vacat has been written across 
 the blank space ; and a note added nihil deficit hie, igitur non debet 
 esse istud spatium x . A fifth writer begins on f. 59 r with est hoc 
 primum, and completes this speech, and on ff. 70 r to 86 r another 
 writer, possibly the same as no. 3, gives the pro Murena : ff. 86 v to 
 90 r are left blank : then the pro Roscio follows in a hand resembling 
 that of the fifth writer. The MS. is mutilated, and ends Rose. § 141 
 hoc indigne fe- . 
 
 Niebuhr supplied Halm with the readings of the Lagg. for §§ 1-25 
 only of the pro Roscio. In these <o has one agreement with V, the 
 palimpsest, viz. § a (30. 9) sim Va> : sum cett. ; a necessary correction, 
 viz. § 11 (3a. 20) eidem a> : idem cett. ; a plausible omission, viz. § 11 
 (32. ao) om. iudex a> (so Halm); and two cases of variety in the 
 collocation of words, viz. § 6 (31. 11) metumque omnem] omnemque 
 metum a> (so Halm) ; § 15 (^. 28) suis omnibus] omnibus suis (so Halm). 
 
 Other readings are quoted by Halm in his Addenda (pp. 1432-3) 
 from a collation made for him by O. Ribbeck 2 , viz. 
 
 § 68 (48. 8) prorupta] praerupta co. § 77 (50. 25) administer] minister u>. 
 § 80 (51. 27) et sanguine] et in sanguine <u. 
 
 ' Mr. F. Madan, to whom I submitted these facts, is of opinion that this portion of the 
 MS. must have been written hurriedly by relays of scribes. It thus happened that the new 
 writer was uncertain where to begin. 
 
 1 In two cases O. Ribbeck wrongly reports the readings of ai, viz. § 118 (6 1, 31) where, 
 according to my collation, it has constant, not constat, and § 129 (65. 6) pertineat, not pertinent. 
 
lx INTRODUCTION 
 
 To these I would add from my own collation of this MS. 
 
 § 48 (42. 23) quod ad to, ed. Crat. : quod 2</>: quo ad cett. § 74 (49. 28) 
 ii u>, coni. Halm: hi cett. § 78 (51. 2) in insidiis to and x< com - Halm: insidiis 
 cett. § 86 (53. n) causa a: om. cett. 
 
 These plausible variants are, however, shown by the consensus of 
 2Att to be due either to conjecture or to accident. Some of them, 
 e. g. those in §§ 6, 15, 77, appear due to the latter cause, and it is 
 singular that importance should have been attached to isolated readings 
 without a full collation of the MS. 
 
 I find in to few special agreements with 2/4. Thus it agrees with 
 them in one only out of the eight cases previously quoted from this 
 speech (p. xli), viz. § 89 patronorum] paternorum SAcpm. It is also 
 very carelessly written, and abounds in omissions. I note a few 
 readings which sufficiently reveal its character. 
 
 § 2 (30. 10-12) ceteros ... in quibus om. o>. ib. (11. 13-15) necesse est . . . 
 dixero om. to. § 3 (30. 15) exire] exigere to. § 6 (31. 5) sexagies] sexagesies a>.

 una in nemo 2ir : una vi nemo AB<f> : una in venio <d. 
 
 In the following case to has an interpolation characteristic of the 
 worst dett., viz. 
 
 § 57 (45- I2 ) Kal. omnis] calomnis "SiAcnr^: calomniis <p: calumpniis u. 
 
 In the pro Murena the tradition of to is purer than in the pro 
 Roscio, being practically identical with that of 7r#. Its affinities are 
 closest with <f>, with which it agrees in eight out of the ten cases 
 previously quoted (pp. xliv, xlv) of difference between ir and cf>, the 
 exceptions being in §§ 58, 90 where it agrees with ti. Its fides is 
 inferior to that of 4>, since sometimes it omits corrupt words without 
 leaving a lacuna, e. g. 
 
 § 32 pugnax et acer et om. to sine lac. § 43 et praetore et om. <o sine lac. 
 
 My general conclusion, therefore, is that to is not reliable in the 
 pro Roscio and superfluous in the pro Murena. It will be understood 
 that I cast no slur upon it in the case of the other speeches which 
 it contains. On the contrary, I consider it to be an early and very 
 authentic copy of these. 
 
INTRODUCTION lxi 
 
 I have also examined a large number of MSS. at Florence, Rome, 
 Milan, Venice, Ravenna, Paris, London, and Oxford, but the results 
 were generally disappointing. One of the more interesting is a Milan 
 MS. (C. 96 Part, sup.) which like to contains a sylloge of the new 
 speeches discovered by Poggio. It once belonged to T. Corbinelli 
 and afterwards to T. V. Pinelli, and was bought at Naples by Cardinal 
 Borromeo in 1609. This seems to be a fairly early copy. Thus 
 Rose. § 30 it has decus in the text with 2A (dedecus in the margin 
 with the other MSS.) and Mur. § 26 aios (aios "2.A : aio cett.). On 
 the whole, however, it did not seem to cast any fresh light upon the 
 text. I was also attracted by an Oxford MS. (Canon. Lat. 304) which 
 contains the pro Murena and pro Sex. Roscio among a number of 
 miscellaneous tracts. This has some interesting readings, e.g. 
 
 Mur. § 7 captio vel accusatio (cattio 2: captio A: accusatio cett.). § 13 
 comspicere (cumspicere S^ 1 : conspicere Air\j/: circumspicere x 2 )- § 3° a ^ 
 honorem depositis (ila x, variant celt.). §51 Cathillina ue erupit (cue erupit 2^, 
 variant cell.). § 56 nobilis (nobis ed. Ven. : nobilis codd. cett.). 
 
 I could not, however, find that it possessed any independent value. 
 A Vatican MS., which once belonged to the well-known scholar, 
 Sicco Polentone (Pal. Lat. 1478), has on f. 161 after the Ciceronis 
 responsio in Salustium the interesting colophon 
 
 Sicco Polentanus Patavius hoc opus scribi fecit Paduae anno 1413 ad usus 
 eius et posterorum. 
 
 After this, at the end of the MS., comes the pro Murena in a 
 different hand, and without a date. I hoped that this might be an 
 early copy made for Polentone, but on examining it found that it 
 was thoroughly vulgar. 
 
 I have intentionally reserved until now the question as to the 
 connexion of any of the Italian copies with Poggio himself. We 
 know from the passage previously quoted (p. iv) that the Cluniacensis 
 was utilized for a copy of Cicero's speeches made for him in 1427- 
 1428 by his French scribe in Rome. It is possible that this copy 
 may one day be identified, though I have not succeeded in finding 
 it. We may be sure that it would show traces of a fresh examina- 
 tion of the Cluniacensis, such as appears in b, x and -ty, and also that 
 it would contain a number of conjectures. 
 
Ixii INTRODUCTION 
 
 It is, therefore, interesting to observe that some of the marginalia 
 found in' ifr can be traced back to Poggio himself. This may be 
 shown by in Pisonem, § 61 
 
 ratio quidem hercle apparet : argentum o"x«-ai. 
 
 Here Halm notes 'argentum oechete VS : argutum et doctum 
 te thecae EGP : argentum et doctum cum lac. F.' 
 
 V here is the celebrated eighth-century MS., belonging to the 
 Chapter of St. Peter's in Rome (H. 25), which contains the speeches 
 in Pisonem, pro Flacco, pro Fonteio, and the Philippics. It is at first 
 sight surprising to find that the fifteenth-century S agrees with V, 
 while the rest of the MSS. have a monstrous corruption. The 
 solution is as usual provided by f in which we find 
 
 oechete 
 
 et doctum te theije. 
 
 It is now obvious that oechete has been drawn from V, and 
 incorporated by 5. If we ask who the collator of V was, the answer 
 is provided by Poggio's correspondence which shows that he used it 
 in 1428. He says 
 
 Philippicas Ciceronis emendavi cum hoc antiquo codice, qui ita pueriliter 
 scriptus est, ita mendose, ut in iis quae scripsi non coniectura opus fuerit sed 
 divinatione. Nulla est femella tarn rudis tarn insulsa quae non emendatius scrip- 
 sisset, sed scis in talibus me esse satis sagacem. Non potui autem corrigere 
 omnes, quia et duae ultimae deficiunt et in reliquis desunt non nulla . . . Vale, 
 die V Iunii, 1428 '- 
 
 It may be remarked that the copy of the Philippics made by 
 Poggio on this occasion is now at Florence (Laur. XLVIII. 22). It 
 contains the Philippics and Catilinarians with the colophon Scripsit 
 Poggius Romae 2 . In this the variants and supplements taken from V 
 are entered in the margin. The same MS. contains a twelfth-century 
 MS. formerly belonging to S. Marco (S. Marci 268), and once the 
 property of Niccolo Niccoli, into which Niccolo Niccoli has entered 
 the same variants and supplements. These have been incorporated 
 
 1 Tonelli i. 216. 
 
 2 F. Novati, in his valuable work Epistolario di Coluccio Salulati, iii, p. 656, identifies 
 Laur. XLvni. 22 with a MS. of Ciceio written by Poggio for Coluccio in 1403. I cannot agree 
 with this date in view of the passage quoted above. 
 
INTRODUCTION l x iii 
 
 into the text in late Italian MSS., such as the cod. Alani (i) used 
 by Halm 1 . 
 
 It now also becomes obvious from what source b has received 
 the supplement to the pro Flacco, for which Baiter quotes VS only. 
 In b it is entered in the margin, in \fr and 5 it appears in the text. 
 We are, therefore, able to trace the influence of Poggio in b and f, 
 although the intermediate copy containing his corrections has still to 
 be identified. 
 
 We are now in a position to sum up the results arrived at in 
 the course of this inquiry. 
 
 The Abbey of Cluni as early as the eleventh century possessed 
 an ancient MS. containing the speeches pro Milone, pro Cluentio, pro 
 Murena, pro Sex. Roscio, and pro Caelio, apparently in this order. 
 This MS. was unaffected by the orthographical reforms which took 
 place under the reign of Charlemagne, and therefore in all probability 
 anterior to them. If so it cannot have been later than the end of 
 the eighth century, and may have been considerably earlier. At the 
 beginning of the fifteenth century it was very illegible. At this period 
 it was used by the French scribes who produced the cod. S. Victoris 
 (2). The speeches pro Milone, pro Caelio, and pro Cluentio were not 
 transcribed in full from it on account of its illegibility, but a copious 
 collation in the shape of supra-lineal variants, marginalia, and supple- 
 ments was extracted and added to copies taken from a vulgar source. 
 The Rosciana and Mureniana were necessarily copied throughout, 
 since they were known from no other source. The transcript made 
 is remarkable on account of its extraordinary fidelity. Where the 
 original was illegible or corrupt the first writer left a blank which was 
 filled up by a second hand who inserted a facsimile of what he found 
 before him. From the cod. S. Victoris are derived Par. 6369 (Par. 1), 
 an admirable copy with an excellent selection of variants from the 
 marginalia, Par. 7777 (Par. 4) an inferior MS. with a smaller selection, 
 and Wolfenbuttel. 205 (W), a carelessly written MS. in which many 
 of the marginalia have been received into the text. These four MSS. 
 constitute the Gallica familia, 2, the progenitor of the other three, 
 being prior to the discovery made by Poggio. 
 
 1 Cf. Classical Review, xiv, p. 40. The suggestion which I there made was subsequently 
 confirmed by my examination of Laur. xlviii. 22 and S. Marci 268. 
 
Ixiv INTRODUCTION 
 
 The Cluniacensis was found by Poggio in the course of his mission 
 either in 1414, or possibly in 1413, and he contrived to get possession of 
 it. As he did not succeed in obtaining other ancient MSS. of Cicero, 
 which were probably still at Cluni, viz. Clun. 498, the MS. containing 
 the speeches in Catilinam, pro Ligario, pro rege Deiotaro, in Verr. ii 
 and iii, recently discovered by Dr. Peterson at Holkham Hall, and 
 Clun. 49a, containing the Letters to Atticus, which was in all probability 
 the lost Tornaesianus 1 (Z), it may be conjectured that the damaged 
 condition of the MS., and the fact that it had recently been copied, 
 made its owners willing to part with it. The first person to participate 
 in the discovery of Poggio was naturally his colleague in his mission, 
 Bartolommeo da Montepulciano, who made a collection of excerpts from 
 the MS. These were copied from his note-book by the scribe who also 
 reproduced his transcript of Asconius, and survive in Laur. LIV. 5. 
 
 Poggio then sent the MS. to his friends in Florence. The 
 Italians found it difficult to decipher, and did not at once avail them- 
 selves of all its contents. Ioannes Arretinus, the writer of a large MS. 
 finished on Feb. 9, 1415 (Laur. XLVIII. io = A), and the anonymous 
 writer of another MS. written in 1416 (Perus. E. 71=71), contented 
 themselves with copying the two new speeches and the end of the 
 pro Cluentio. They did not use it for the pro Milone, the pro Caelio, 
 or for the other lacunae in the pro Clitentio. It was afterwards examined 
 by other scholars and notably by Poggio himself in 1427. They drew 
 from it the argument to the pro Milone, supplements to the pro Cluentio 
 in the other four lacunae, variants and supplements to both speeches, 
 and also to the pro Caelio. We can trace a gradual influx of readings 
 taken from the Cluniacensis into MSS. written at this period, the 
 intermediate stage being marked by such MSS. as x (Laur. XLVIII. 25), 
 b (S. Marci, 255), and f (Gadd. XC. sup. 69), the last named containing 
 the most complete collection of variants taken from this as well as 
 from other sources. The final stage is marked by such MSS. as S, 
 which like W has incorporated the Apparatus Criticus with the text. 
 
 The results of these conclusions are of great importance. In the 
 pro Sex. Roscio the two MSS. chiefly relied upon have been W and 
 £. It now appears that W is a copy of a copy made from 2, and 
 that 6" is highly composite and tainted by conjecture. In the pro

INTRODUCTION lxv 
 
 Milone the Cluniacensis emerges from the darkness to strengthen the 
 authority of 77(Harl. 2682), and to prove the antiquity of the recension 
 found in that MS. In the pro Cluentio ST are dethroned from the 
 primacy assigned to them, which must now be assigned to the French 
 and Italian marginalia. In the pro Caelio the new evidence is such as 
 to necessitate a fresh revision of the text. 
 
 I do not propose on this occasion to discuss the new readings 
 to be gleaned from the sources which I have indicated. Such a course 
 would considerably increase the size of this volume, and would delay 
 its publication. Also, I am now engaged in editing the various 
 speeches here discussed for the Oxford Classical Texts Series, and 
 hope shortly to publish a text. I therefore reserve all such points, and 
 content myself with giving a few examples to illustrate the inadequacy 
 of Halm's Apparatus Criticus to the pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, 
 due to the inferiority of the MSS. employed by him. In the follow- 
 ing quotations I preserve his nomenclature, i.e. G—W, M — S (in the 
 pro Roscio M 1 = the first and M 2 the second copy of this speech), 
 CEHO\ are worthless Oxford MSS., a — ed. Ascens., C ' = ed. Crat.,

 On the other hand, while much is omitted which is germane to

APPENDIX 
 
 I have reserved for an Appendix some further details concerning 
 the relation of W to 2. The text appears to have degenerated to 
 a singular extent in the course of transmission. This can hardly be 
 due to any difficulty in the hand of 2 which was found perfectly 
 legible by the writer of Par. 6369 (Par. 1). That the writer of W, or 
 of the intermediate copy which separates it from 2, was extraordinarily 
 careless is shown by the fact previously mentioned that in the pro 
 Murena alone an entire line of 2 is omitted in W on four occasions, 
 and that in no less than eleven cases in this speech and the pro Sex. 
 Roscio an omission is due to the accident that the eye of the writer 
 passed from a word in the line above to that immediately underneath 
 it in the line below. 
 
 Apart from this carelessness we find in W a strange confusion 
 of letters, e.g. of 
 
 a and 0. 
 
 maleficio = maleficia, oblatam = ablatam, facto = facta, multo = multa. 
 
 a and e and i. 
 
 putabat = putabit, labentibus = libentibus, emandatio = amandatio, miser- 
 enda = miseranda. 
 
 u, m, n, ui. 
 
 anxerunt = auxerunt, meo = nemo, unus = vivis, uissi = missi, sui = sin, 
 curam = curavi, munerabat = numerabat. 
 
 Various other consonants. 
 
 sespirare = respirare, senatus = cenatus, celum = telurn, issius = istius, 
 ferram = terram, tanti = cauti, crinos = trinos. 
 
 Some of the corruptions are really surprising, e. g. 
 
 Rose. § 12 petimus] penitus. § 26 decern] legem. § 28 ceperunt] operiunt. 
 
Ixviii APPENDIX 
 
 § 30 haec aliis] ab alienis. § 38 deditam] meditani. § 57 alii] vfi. § 59 homines]

 § 75 stuicus stravit] seincustravit. § 78 ais] ab hiis. § 82 quantum] contrarium. 
 § 90 patri] pecori. 
 
 The words inserted by 2 2 in lac. have naturally fared badly, e. g. 
 
 Mur. § 10 quod] cauod 2 2 : cano W. § 55 sum animo] sumanisho 2 2 : 
 sumam huius W. § 66 huiusmodi] huiusmodi odi 2 2 : huiusmodi edii W. § 68 
 obviam] ouiuiam 2 2 : omniam W. 
 
 It will be convenient to append a list of passages in the pro 
 Roscio and pro Murena where we find 
 
 (i) Simple corrections in W, where 2 is corrupt. 
 
 In five cases a necessary correction is found in W sol., viz. 
 
 Rose. § 8 spoliis ex W: spoliis sex 2tt, variant cett. § 23 perditum W: 
 praeditum cett. § 92 tu T. Rosci W: ut Rosci 2: tu Rosci celt. § no fretus 
 mora W: fretumora 2 : fretum ora (hora) celt. Mur. § 48 satietati W: sapietati 
 2 : sapientiae celt. 
 
 In nine others a correction not peculiar to W occurs in it, viz. 
 
 Rose. § 86 quaerenda (causa) wSW: om. causa cett. §101 nos istorum 
 \ji*W: nonistorum 2: istorum celt. § 145 maxima tu uteris SW: maximat veteris 
 2: maxima uteris cell. Mur. § 13 circumspicere -^W: cumspicere 2 : conspicere 
 celt. § 18 pares SW: pare 2^: pari cett. § 25 ediscendis SW, aliquot dell.: 
 discendis u> : eliscendis 2 cett. § 27 quia ^>i// 2 a)W: cuia 2 cett. § 34 ipse Lag. 9, 
 W: ipso 2 cett. § 49 militum (turn) i/» 2 fF: om. turn cett. 
 
 Most of these are easy conjectures and some of them, e. g. Rose. 
 §§ 101, 145, Mur. §§ 13, 18, 48, are clearly based upon the reading of 2. 
 
 (ii) Plausible variants in W, which the evidence of 2 shows to 
 be due to accident or conjecture, viz. 
 
 Rose. § 7 (31. 17) si] nisi W, Halm 2 , Weidner. § 8 (31. 27) illorum] eorum 
 W, prob. Halm. § 13 (33. 13) hunc ipsum] om. ipsum W, Halm in Addendis.

 Most of these are clearly proprii errores of W, though a few may 
 be attempts at correction. 
 Somewhat different are 
 Rose. § 39 (40. 23) luxuria] luxoriae 2, luxurie W, Miiller, Landgraf, where 
 
 the reading of 2 may be due to a combination of variants, i.e. luxorie: also § 75 
 (50. 9) luxuria] luxoriae 2, luxurie, Miiller, Landgraf. 
 
 Rose. § 74 (49. 27) quaero] quaero quos (el in mg quae) 2 : quaeros quos W: 
 quaero per quos suspic. Halm : quaero servos Vahlen.

INTRODUCTION 
 
 THIS study is intended to serve as a supplement to an edition 
 which has recently appeared from the Clarendon Press. It would 
 doubtless have been more convenient if the publications had appeared 
 simultaneously, or if this account of the materials which I have used had 
 preceded my recension. I must, therefore, explain that this Anecdoton 
 is due to an afterthought. I had originally intended to confine myself 
 to a revision of the text, being conscious that there were several prob- 
 lems which I had not solved, and also that any results at which I had 
 arrived were less interesting than those which I submitted in a previous 
 Anecdoton dealing with the Cluniacensis of Poggio. However, while 
 my edition was in the Press, I came somewhat reluctantly to the con- 
 clusion that it was desirable to publish some of my collations for the 
 use of future students of these speeches, and that it might be convenient 
 for me to collect in an accessible form some details which I could not 
 compress into the limits of a Preface. As, perhaps, it is not too much 
 to hope that any one who may care to read this technical discussion 
 will be in possession of my edition, I shall as far as possible refrain 
 from repeating those points which I have already been able to treat 
 adequately. 
 
 The first speeches which I have to discuss are those pro Qidnctio Pro Quinctio, 
 
 „ . , . , , •• • • c i-r*. pro Flacco. 
 
 and pro Flacco. It is, I think, a little surprising, in view of certain tacts 
 to which I have called attention, that the close connexion between the 
 tradition of these two speeches has not previously been remarked. In 
 the Zurich edition Baiter is responsible for both. In the case of the 
 pro Quinctio he was content with the Paris. MSS. which had been collated 
 by Keller. This is interesting to me in view of the conclusion at which 
 I have arrived concerning the provenance of the two speeches. In the 
 pro Flacco he relied chiefly upon two MSS., viz. the Salisburgensis, a 
 late and highly corrected Italian MS., with which I have dealt elsewhere, 1 
 and T, Bernensis 254. I may here remark that T is a French MS., 
 formerly belonging to Notre Dame, to which it was presented by Jean 
 1 Anecdota Oxoniensia x, pp. Hv-lvii.

4 INTRODUCTION 
 
 Courtecuisse, Chancellor of the University of Paris in 1418 and Bishop 
 of Paris in 1420. 1 
 
 I have in my Preface referred to the silence of Italian scholars prior 
 to Antonius Luschus concerning these speeches. Coluccio in 1396, 
 writing to Jean de Montreuil on literary subjects, refers to Andreolo 
 Arese as a discoverer of MSS., 2 and it occurred to me that he might, 
 have brought them to Italy. I have not, however, found anything to 
 support this guess, and I have also looked in vain for any reference to 
 them in the writings of Jean de Montreuil and Nicolas de Clemanges. 
 I venture, however, to hope that some one better equipped for the 
 inquiry than myself will be more successful, since some passages in the 
 pro Flacco are so remarkable that they are likely to be quoted by any 
 one who was acquainted with the speech. 
 S. Marci 255. There is abundant evidence that another MS. belonging to a 
 
 different family was subsequently discovered. This is shown by the 
 marginalia found in b (S. Marci 255). This MS. is posterior to Poggio's 
 discoveries, as it contains the speeches pro Rabirio perduellionis reo and 
 pro Roscio Comoedo : also in the pro Flacco it is supplemented from V, 
 which appears to have come to light about 1425. 3 I was at first 
 disposed to look with some suspicion upon these readings, but now 
 regard them with great respect and term them B. 
 
 In a number of cases B adds passages omitted by the French MSS., 
 the chief representative of which is 2 (Paris. 14749). The genuineness 
 of these supplements is in many cases obvious, and is sometimes proved 
 by other evidence. 
 
 The most convincing cases are : 
 
 Quinct. 53 non statim ad C. Aquilium (aut eorum aliquem qui consuluntur 
 concurrisses ? cum ius amicitiae, societatis, adfinitatis ageretur, cum officii rationem 
 atque existimationis duci conveniret, eo tempore tu non modo ad C. Aquilium) 
 aut L. Lucullum. 
 
 The cause of the omission in 2 is obvious, and the supplement 
 
 1 At the end of the MS. the following note occurs : D. lohan. Brevis Coxae legavit Ecclesiae 
 Parisiensi. The same note is found in a number of MSS. now in the Eibliotheque Nationale 
 (Delisle, Cabinet des MSS., i. p. 429).

 lani, qui moram in Gallia continuam trahit, repperit totum Quintilianum '

INTRODUCTION 5 
 
 given by B is attested by Rufinianus, an author discovered a hundred 
 years later by Beatus Rhenanus. 1 
 
 ib. 92 si causa cum causa contenderet, (nos nostram perfacile cuivis pro- 
 baturos statuebamus ; quod vitae ratio cum ratione vitae decerneret), idcirco .... 
 
 The supplement is here attested by the Turin Palimpsest. 
 
 Flacc. 75 num honestior est civitas Pergamena quam Smyrnae ? An ne (ipsi 
 quidem dicunt. Vellem tantum habere me otii ut possem recitare) psephisma 
 Smyrnaeorum. 
 
 Other cases are : 
 
 Quinct. 10 atque obsecrat ut multis iniuriis iactatam, 33 is posteriore loco 
 diceret, 43 igitur, 46 vi, 73 et complures fuerunt, 81 passuum. 
 
 Flacc. 2 et lectissimorum, 3 civitatis, 32 cursu et, 36 nullam constanliam, 
 41 quoniam (so V), 44 et conficientissima (so V), 89 non, 91 sestertiis. 
 
 I do not wish to lay stress upon the agreement of V in Flacc. 
 41, 44, since these readings may have been taken from V itself. 
 Two cases call for special notice, viz. 
 
 Quinct. 33 quam rem facile a praetore . . . nisi. The lacuna is filled up 
 
 assent 
 
 by B with impetrari spero. Here impelrari spero looks like an attempt to 
 reproduce a corruption found in the original, while impctrassent is a successful 
 correction. 
 
 Quinct. 25. 2 has a lacuna after the words quod ubi ex Publicio. The first 
 hand in b gives quod nisi ex Publicio before a similar lacuna, while the second 
 hand fills up the lacuna with the supplement narratum Naevio esset, non tarn ciio 
 res in conienlionem venisset. These words give a very indifferent sense, and a very 
 bad clausula, as is pointed out by Zielinski (p. 190). It will be noticed that they 
 are incompatible with the reading of 2 (ubi). As b is drawn from a gemellus of 
 S, and rarely differs except where it has incorporated a conjecture, I look upon 
 this supplement as founded upon the reading of the first hand, viz. nisi for ubi. 
 
 Many of the readings given by B are clearly right. I instance the 
 following : 
 
 Quinct. 8 ieceriti?: legerit lb (ita mox). 21 eductus B (so P § 69): 
 educatus 23. 24 Scipione B : spicione 2 : spricione b. ib. Vada Volaterrana B : 
 vadabo laterrana 23. 33 educerent B (cf. Gell. xi. 17): adducerent 23. ib. po- 
 testasque B : testesque 23. 40 petisses et petisses B: petisses si petisses 23. 
 
 1 Sabbadini, Scoperte, p. 171. 
 
6 INTRODUCTION 
 
 47 iactentur B: locentur 23. 48 ex officii B: ea officii 23. 50 indicitur B: 
 dicitur 2 : ducitur 3. 53 vererere -5 (so P and Rufinianus) : verere 23. 58 pro- 
 secuti B: profecti 23. 66 quod edat B : quod dedat 2: quod dederat 3. 
 69 laborant. Aude B (so P) : laboras tu de 23. 76 alius B : aliis 23. 81 vim 
 non B : nimium 23. 85 Lares B (so 2 «§•.) : labores 2 1 : liberos 3. ib. dico 
 Naevium B : edam unum 2 : edicti unum 3. ib. iudicatum solvi satis daturum B : 
 solvi (-vere 3) iudicaturum autem 23. 
 
 The agreement of the Palimpsest with B in §§ 21, 53, 69 is very 
 significant. 
 
 Flacc. 3 iudicum B : iudicium 23. 5 rapitur B (and corr. in 2) : reperitur 2 1 : 
 repetitur 3. 7 hosce B : hostes 23. 10 eum cum B : cum 23. 12 levitatem B : 
 veritatem levitatem 2: vanitatem 3. 23 sed fremitum B, Faemus: et fremitum 
 23. 25 quam 2? : id quod 2 : in qua 3. 31 Atinas pugil B : ut in aspugilo 2 : 
 at pugil 3. 41 criminei?: om. 2 : testimonio 3. 42 profiteatur 2? : profitetur 23. 
 63 alluatur2?: abluatur 23. 65 afferatis B : affertis 23. 69 avertitur 2? : con- 
 vertitur 23. 84 an coemptione B: coemptione 2: vel coemptione 3. 91 
 quacum traiecerat B : quam contra iecerat 2 : quam traiecerat b. 
 
 The following examples will show that B represents the results of 
 a fairly minute collation : 
 
 Quinct. 34 iam informata 23 : informata iam B. 46 id iudicium 23: iudi- 
 cium id B. Flacc 36 et dignitas 23 : ac dignitas B. 57 queri iure 23 : iure 
 queri B. 7 1 et magis 23 : magis B. 
 
 It is interesting to find that not infrequently the agreement of B 
 with 2 shows that the reading of b is due to conjecture, e. g. 
 
 Quinct. 30 possessa sint 22? : possessa sunt 3, celt. 36 perorabo 22?: pero- 
 ravero 3. 58 et Albium et Quintium 22?: et Albii et Quintii 3, celt. 59 laboravit 
 22?: laborabit 3. 75 neglexerint 22? : negligendo 3. 85 latitarit 22?: Iatilaret3. 
 ib. potest 2Z? : posset 3. 99 lx 22? : hoc 3 : sexagesimo cett. 
 
 Flacc. 15 plebes 22?: plebs 3. 17 soli sint 22?: soli sunt b. 38 com- 
 movebor22?: commorabor 3. 40 quia de 22? : qui de 3 (so V). 59 collata 22?: 
 collatam 3. 64 Aeolis . . . Doris 22?: Aeoles . . . Dores b. 74 atque 22?: at 
 qui 3. 104 illam 22?: cum illam 3. 106 ostenditis 22?: ostendetis 3. 
 
 In several of these cases b gives a successful conjecture, although 
 the evidence of B shows that it was not in the archetype. Other 
 
INTRODUCTION 7 
 
 readings of b, probably due to conjecture, have escaped the vigilance of 
 the collator, e. g. 
 
 Flacc. 19 acerbitati, 32 ab Aeno, 36 exoptanda, 105 poterunt. 
 
 I would finally remark that the archetype of B was mutilated 
 in Flacc. 47-55 like the French family. It is true that the lost 
 sections are entered in the margin of b, but they have clearly been 
 copied from V, and contain nothing new except a few trifling corrections. 
 
 The facts which I have put together show that in these speeches 
 2 and B represent two founts. These soon became commingled, with 
 the result that we find a number of contaminated MSS., such as 
 S. Marci 254 ( x ), derived from the French family and corrected 
 from B. 
 
 I now proceed to consider the MSS. used by Keller. 1 He did not CoJd. Keiuri. 
 employ them for the pro Flacco, as he was only interested in the pro 
 Quinctio. I have examined them in both speeches. They are thus 
 arranged by Keller : 
 
 a=Paris. 7788, £=7784, ^=7780, <f=Sorbonne 484 (now Lat. 16226), 
 e =ni4, f=117%, ^=Sorbonne 909 (now Lat. 16228), ^ = 6369, z'=7777, 
 ^=7779- /= 778i, » = 7782, 8=7824. 
 
 He was also furnished by a friend with a collation of the Berne 
 MS., No. 254, already mentioned. 
 
 I found upon examining these MSS. that five of them, viz. aeklm, 
 were written in Italy, the others are in a French hand. One of the 
 Italian MSS.,'£, presents some points of peculiar interest, and must be 
 reserved for subsequent discussion. Three, aim, are derived from the 
 2 stock, but contain some corrections and supplements drawn from B. 
 I was interested to find in a a good copy of the speech pro Rabirio 
 Postumo which I shall refer to later on. The process of contamination 
 has proceeded further in e, a beautiful MS. with fine illuminations, which 
 generally agrees with B and x- 
 
 I now turn to the French MSS. Three of these, viz. kin, are 
 copied from 2. I have already 2 given the evidence for this in the case 
 of 6369 (h) and 7777 (i). The proof is the same in the case of 7824 («), 
 which in the pro Cluentio minutely reproduces the passages inserted into 
 
 1 Semeslrium ad Ciceronem, pp. 200-206. 
 
 2 Anecdota Oxon., x, pp. xv-xvi.

 2 from the Cluniacensis. I quote the following cases : 1 Clu. 103 unos, 
 ib. captanus quam, 127 haberebantur, 130 multitudinem inilicitum. 
 
 The other five, bcdfg, are very closely connected with 2, but do 
 not appear to be copied from it. That b and c are drawn from the same 
 source is pointed out by Keller. Of the remaining three g is the 
 most interesting on account of its contents, which are unusually scanty, 
 viz. pro Plancio, pro Sulla, pro Archia, pro Marcello, pro Ligario, pro 
 rege Deiotaro,pro Cluetitio, pro Quinctio, pro Flacco, ad populum gratias 
 egit. These speeches are found in the same order in d, also a Sorbonne 
 MS., and in f, but in both of these are preceded and followed by 
 other speeches not found in g. The obvious conclusion is that g is 
 copied from an archetype which contained this particular sylloge only, 
 while df are a collection of speeches drawn from more than one source. 
 There is the greatest similarity between 2 and dfg, to which I may add 
 the Bernensis (7). In the pro Quinctio and pro Flacco T is practically 
 a duplicate of 2. I quote the following cases in which 27" agree soli: 
 
 Quinct. 5 ubi consistat ~2,T: ubi res consistat dfg. 40 non adesa iam 27": 
 non adesa iam pecunia dfg. 60 latitat 2 T: om. dfg. 61 vadari compromitti IT: 
 vadarius promitti dfg. 92 adiciatur (sine lac.) 27": adiciatur ante 10 lilt, spatium 
 dfg. 94 vixerunt (sine lac) 27! 
 
 Flacc. 6 laesas 22?: laesae dfg. 20 consurgente 22? : eos surgente def. 
 40 qui efferebatur 22?: qui asserebatur dfg. 65 generaret 27': gfit df: generate 
 
 A number of notes and variants found in the margin of 2 also 
 occur in that of T both in this and in other speeches. That T is a later 
 MS. than 2 is apparent at a glance. It is, however, noticeable that it 
 does not contain the end of the pro Clucntio or the other supplements 
 derived from the Cluniacensis, so that, if copied from 2, this must have 
 taken place before these supplements were inserted. 
 
 It had occurred to me that g, in view of the peculiarity of ks 
 contents, might be the parent, not only of the other allied MSS., but 
 also of 2. I could not, however, find evidence to support this con- 
 jecture. It looks later than 2, though I should not wish to speak 
 confidently upon this point, and in some cases where 2(7) differ from 
 the rest of the group they appear to contain the superior reading, e. g. 
 Quinct. 5, 40, 60 (supra). There is really no new information to be

INTRODUCTION 9 
 
 gathered from dfg, and, as 2 is so important in other speeches, I prefer 
 to follow it as the representative of the French family. My conviction 
 is that all these MSS. are drawn — either wholly as in the case of g, or 
 partly as in that of 2(T)df and the lesser members of the group, such as 
 be — from a common archetype which contained only the speeches found 
 in_§-, and in this order. 
 
 I now turn to a more interesting subject, viz. the second batch of Discoveries of 
 speeches discovered by Poggio, viz. pro Roscio Comoedo, pro Caecina, de Fo ss io - 
 lege agraria contra Rullum i-'ui, pro Rabirio perdicellionis reo, in Pisonem, 
 and pro Rabirio Postumo. Other MSS. have since come to light con- 
 taining the speeches pro Caecina, de lege agraria, and in Pisonem, superior 
 in authority to the MSS. discovered by Poggio. Since, however, a large 
 number of MSS. are descended from Poggio's copy, it is of some interest 
 to make out the family-history of the group even in these orations. The 
 other three speeches are only known from copies descended from 
 Poggio's transcript. 
 
 Prof. Sabbadini assigns the discovery to the year 141 7. J We know 
 from a colophon 2 that Poggio was alone at the time, so that his 
 colleague, Bartolommeo da Montepulciano, who was ill at the time, 3 had 
 no share in the credit which he gained. Similar evidence attests that 
 the Caeciniana was found in, or near, Langres. We know nothing con- 
 cerning the provenance of the other speeches. According to Vespasiano, 
 Poggio was accustomed to state that one MS. which he found was 
 discovered under a heap of refuse. 4 It would seem likely that the 
 mutilated speeches pro Roscio Comoedo, pro Rabirio perd., and pro Rabirio 
 Postumo were in this. I need not here repeat what I have said in my 
 Preface concerning the statements made by Poggio about his transcript, 
 or other references to it after its arrival in Italy. Suffice it to say that 
 there is no MS. in existence which it is possible to identify with the MS. 
 which he describes as written by himself in his own hand. 
 
 No attempt has hitherto been made to classify the very large 
 number of MSS. descended from this lost ancestor, or to trace their 
 affinities. The task indeed is not an inspiring one, since, as they are all

io INTRODUCTION 
 
 descended from one archetype, it is not possible to arrive at much that 
 is novel. All that we can hope to do is to reconstitute Poggio's apograph 
 to some extent by eliminating the corrections and conjectures of copyists 
 and scholars. Until this has been done, it is impossible to criticize such 
 a corrupt document as the speech, pro Rabirio Postumo. 
 
 The Zurich editors paid little attention to the Poggian family in 
 the speeches pro Caecina, de lege agraria, and in Pisonem, though in the 
 case of the de lege agraria this defect was partly remedied by a 
 supplement in the Addenda, giving the readings of Halm's Salisburgensis, 
 and the Milan MS. which I term in, a respectable member of the group. 
 Zumpt, indeed, had printed the collations of Lagomarsini in his edition of 
 the speeches contra Rulliim, but he failed to see the merits of Lag. 39 
 and Lag. 26, and very perversely claimed for Lag. o, a highly corrected 
 MS., special connexion with Poggio's transcript. Baiter used very few 
 MS., all inferior, for the pro Roscio Comoedo. Halm in the pro Rabirio 
 perduellio?iis reo used the variants collected by Lagomarsini, but expresses 
 no opinion as to the merits of his MSS., while in the speech pro Rabirio 
 Postumo he had only late and inferior MSS. In the last speech C. F. W. 
 Midler was furnished by Studemund with the readings of six MSS., 
 none of which has any claim to excellence. 
 
 It is obvious that the criticism of these speeches is inseparably 
 connected, and that the eclectic method of treatment hitherto followed 
 must be wrong. It also, I venture to hold, is self-evident that those 
 MSS. which contain these speeches and no others are likely to be most 
 closely connected with the original apograph of Poggio. 
 
 The MSS. which satisfy these conditions are four in number, viz. 
 Laur. Conv. Soppr. 13 (M), Oxon. Dorvill. 78 (o),Senensis H.VI. 12(5), 
 Laur. XLVIII. 26 (co). The last named also contains the speeches pro 
 Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, but these are a later addition. Two other 
 MSS. belonging to this class were extant until recently, but have now 
 disappeared, viz. cod. S. Michaelis Venet. (v) and cod. Glorieri (g). 
 Of these MSS. Mono were collated by Lagomarsini, who termed them 
 Lagg. 39, 38, 26. To this list may be added Ambros. C. 96 supr. (m), 
 which also contains the pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena, all speeches 
 being written in the same hand. 
 Laur. Conv. Of these M at once arrests attention on account of the remarkable 
 Soppr. 1 3. co l phons which it contains. I refer to the facsimiles for the statements 
 
INTRODUCTION n 
 
 concerning the discoveries of Poggio, and to the collation of the speeches 
 against Rullus for the subscriptions attesting the revision of these by 
 Statilius Maximus. An examination of the MS. justified the expectations 
 with which I approached it. 
 
 I have in my edition described the two hands in which the MS. is 
 written, with what justice the reader will be able to decide from the 
 facsimiles. I would here note that several of the corrections in the 
 earlier part of the MS. proceed from the writer of the Pisoniana. Some 
 of these are supplements where the first scribe omitted a word or several 
 words, e.g. 
 
 Caec. io (argentariam), 19 (usus enim . . . Caesenniae), 20 (expediri . . . 
 descendunt), 22 (fugam), 40 (satis verbis causam), 94 (accepii), 97 (postea 
 . . . iudicaverunt). 
 
 Others are corrections or conjectures, e. g. : 
 
 imo 
 
 Caec 35 p aditu m. 1 : primo aditu m. 2. 36 interdictis m. 1 : interdicit is 
 m. 2. 75 terrae m. 1 : feret m. 2. 
 
 In the Pisoniana all the corrections are made by the writer of the 
 text except three, which are in a thinner hand, viz. Pis. 61 eas] eius m. 1 : 
 i eas m. 2. 88 sed quod . . . succederetur add. m. 2. 89 absolutus m. 1 : 
 obsoletus m. 2. 
 
 The first fact to notice in M is that it has been mutilated. I would 
 call attention to the puzzling index of contents (see facsimile). In this 
 a second hand has added ' Excerptio orthographic guasparini Victorini '. 
 The insertion of 'Delege agraria contra Rullum' after 'Ad populum 
 contra agrariam legem' is due to a third writer, who struck out the missing 
 speeches with the note 'haec deficientibus paginis desiderantur ', and 
 also deleted the Excerptio Victorini. It is obvious that this index 
 cannot have corresponded with the order in M before the mutilation 
 took place, since the colophon to the Pisoniana shows that this speech 
 came last in the book. There is no interval between the pro Caecina and 
 the speeches against Rullus, so the missing speeches cannot have come in 
 there. They must, therefore, have come before the Pisoniana. It is 
 interesting to observe that this is the position which they occupied in 
 the missing MS. (v), described by Mittarelli. The order given in the 
 index to M corresponds exactly with that found in 0. As M and 
 
12 INTRODUCTION 
 
 originally belonged to the same library, that of S. Maria, and appear to 
 have been next to each other on the same shelf, as shown by the library 
 marks, CI. n. 39 and CI. 11. 38, I would suggest that the index was 
 copied into M from 0. The order in co is identical with that of o, while 
 in s the three speeches which have been torn out of M, or separated from it, 
 come first. In m the pro Sex. Roscio and pro Murena come first, and 
 are succeeded by the other speeches in the same order as that found in 
 0(0. This variety in the collocation bears witness to the antiquity of the 
 mutilation. 
 
 When comparing M with osa I was struck by two facts, viz. (i) that 
 these are clearly posterior to it and apparently derived from it, and 
 (ii) that none of them is copied directly from M, but from a missing 
 link. These remarks apply equally to all other members of the Poggian 
 family in the speeches pro Caecina, contra Rullum, and in Pisonem. 
 
 The clearest evidence of descent from M is furnished by s. 1 
 In Rull. ii. 84 for nati in Mis M gives nati nullis and has in the 
 margin c" (i.e. corrigas) in Mis. In s we find nati <f in Mis, where the 
 copyist has received into the text the symbol c s together with the con- 
 jecture. No other origin is possible for o, which regularly adopts 
 alterations of the second hand in M, and provides nothing that is new 
 except a few easy conjectures, e.g. Pis. 95 absolutus est o: absolutus 
 cett. The closest similarity, however, is to be found between M and a>. 
 The most striking case is Caec. 64, where in Mu> a large capital, only 
 employed here, is used, viz. /Xenio, as if at the beginning of a new 
 speech. Also to reproduces in the margin various notes which occur in 
 the margin of M, e. g. Pis. 43 M has the note versus Ennii (so also V, 
 so that it would appear to be an ancient annotation) while <o adds 
 Ennii versns. 2 
 
 1 I would here mention that s omits the following passages, possibly owing to the loss of one 
 or more folios. 
 
 Rab. Post. 15-21 ordinis . . . tu vis ava-. 31-37 illnm cuius . . . quem eorum. 
 
 Rab. perd. 20-26 fit senatus . . . quod arma.

INTRODUCTION 13 
 
 Some of the proprii err ores found in M survive in all three MSS., 
 e. g. Caec. 94 colonus] colunus Mws. Others are found in two, e. g! 
 ./?«//. ii. 83 etiam] etiam etiam Moos, 93 tibicinem] tibiicinem Mas. The 
 following case is interesting : 
 
 o 
 
 Caec. 90 obrutis] ebrutis M: obrutis m: aebulius 0: brulii s. 
 
 A large collection could be made of those preserved by <o only, e. g. 
 
 Caec. 8 vindicarij iudicari Mm\ 21 re om. Mm. 38 talium] talium talium 
 
 pio 
 
 Mm. 65 aucupia] aucu Mm. 96 non potest] non non potest Mm. Rull. i. 11 
 olfecerint] obfecerint Mm. ii. 41 Tyrum] tytum Mm x . 58 hoc aut illo] hec aut 
 illo Mm. 67 sumeret] summeret M l m. Pis. 40 in perpetuum] imperpetuum 
 Mm. 89 obsoletus] absolutus M: absoletus m. 
 
 On the other hand M omits several passages which are found not 
 only in u>os, but in all other MSS. The chief cases are : 
 
 Caec 10 quam ne . . . videatur om. Rull. ii. 40 an . . . aestimabit om. 
 iii. 17 agri . . . consules om. 
 
 In a few instances the collocation of words in M differs from that 
 in all other members of the family, e. g. 
 
 Rull. ii. 24 est ordo M: ordo est celt. 96 positam in montibusA/: in 
 montibus positam cett. iii. 6 haec est M : est haec celt. 
 
 There are also a number of orthographical peculiarities and 
 unimportant slips in M which do not appear in the other MSS. 
 
 The only possible explanation is that there is a missing link, i. e. 
 that a copy of M was supplemented and corrected by reference to 
 Poggio's apograph, and that wos, to say nothing of other MSS., are 
 descended from this. I can only mourn the disappearance of the codex 
 S. Michaelis (v), which might have thrown much light upon the problem. 
 
 There is another and more fruitful method by which it is possible to 
 test the position of M, as compared with other members of the group. 
 
 the speech pro Rabirio perd. He quotes three readings with which he was furnished by Reiffer- 
 scheid from Lag. 39 (i. e. M), viz. § 6 articulum, § 13 et lictor, § 25 quam tu. The speech, however, 
 is one of those which are not now found in M, and which, as the old index shows, were torn out 
 at a very early date. The readings quoted are, however, all found in Lag. 26, and the first in 
 Lag. 26 alone. I, therefore, gather that Reifferscheid, seeing that Lag. 26 was derived from 
 Lag. 39, inadvertently confused the two MSS. 
 
14 
 
 INTRODUCTION 
 
 This is by employing the evidence which is furnished by MSS. subse- 
 quently discovered, and belonging to a different family, viz. TEe in the 
 pro Caecina, Ee in the speeches against Rullus, and P VEe in the in 
 Pisonem} Where the reading of M, or the first hand in M, is supported 
 by these witnesses we may be sure that it faithfully represents the 
 archetype. 
 
 I will give a decisive instance, viz. 
 
 Caec 92 se deiectum] sed fictum TEM 1 : se deiectum M mg., os: sed se 
 deiectum fictum to. 
 
 I add the following instructive cases. It will be noticed that the 
 original reading of M often survives in one or other of the later MSS., 
 most frequently in co. 
 
 Caec. 20 intenderit TEMP : intenderet M 2 , celt. 67 defende T: defendes

 VM l : transibas JIP, cell. 58 triumpharint VHP : triumpharunt JIP, cell. 
 
 In the Pisoniana some marginalia in M, written by the first hand, 
 can be proved by similar evidence to have been in the margin of the 
 MS. discovered by Poggio. 
 
 10 ausus est E, M mg. : ausus esse cett. 20 cymbala P, Mmg., a mg., s : cro- 
 talia celt. 33 quae vis PV, Mmg.: eius celt. 63 sis PV, M sup. lin.: om. celt.

 I have found nothing in and j which is supported by external 
 evidence as against M. There are, however, a very few points in which 
 
 1 Mr. S. G. Owen supplied me with a collation of e for (he pro Caecina. In the Pisoniana 
 I used that made by Dr. Strobel. The Rev. H. M. Bannister verified for me several passages in 
 in these speeches and procured for me a photographic reproduction of the orations against 
 Rullus. 
 
INTRODUCTION 15 
 
 it is difficult not to recognize an original reading preserved from the 
 archetype by co, viz. 
 
 Caec. 103 vi homini eu> : virtuti homini M, w mg. In § 88 vi is used for vide- 
 licet (a quo T: a quo loco. vi. celt.), so it looks as if this must have been in the 
 original. 
 
 Rull. ii. 71. For coacervantur (so all other MSS.) 10 gives in the text quoserv 
 and in the margin quoacervantur, which seems an old spelling. 
 
 Pis. 8. For consul (so all other MSS.) o> gives quos, which is corrected in 
 the margin. In § 20 we find consule P : quos (-od Ee) celt., so quos appears to be 
 an old corruption. 
 
 ib. 42 boni viri VEem 1 : boni Mm"', celt. 44 non in poena VEeui 1 : non poena 
 M<J, celt. 
 
 The orthography of M is interesting, especially in the pro Caecina 
 and in the speeches against Rullus, on account of the light which it 
 throws upon the character of the MSS. discovered by Poggio. It will 
 be convenient to take the speeches separately, since the pro Caecina, as 
 we are told in the colophon, was found at Langres, not with the other 
 speeches. 
 
 M preserves a certain number of faulty divisions which do not 
 appear in the other copies, e. g. 
 
 5 parsaliqua (=pars aliqua), 8 adsedelatum ( = ad se delatum), 25 deeo (=de 
 
 eo), 49 delo (= de loco), 54 aucto rem (=auctorem), 102 tu is exte (=tui Sexte, 
 so M in mg.). 
 
 It is, however, clear that the Lingonensis was written in a minuscule 
 hand with a number of contractions. I quote the following : 
 
 Jujo causam stro 
 
 22 p. (=primo), so 35 p , 3° 9 e ( m S- causae), so 40 c~a . . m, 32 magi , 
 39 an (=ante,so i»/Y« mg.), 54 age (i.e. age was in the original (so frequently, 
 
 re re end re r 
 
 e.g. 81 constitue , 83 restitue ), 85 defendi, 88 optat (i.e.** optat), 89 deieceris 
 
 em 
 
 (ex deiec'is), 93 aut. 
 
 M has some odd spellings and slips, some of which also occur in 
 TE, and therefore are without doubt a heritage from the Lingonensis, 
 e.g.' 13 partionis (= partitions), so T, 14 cognotoris (= cognitoris), so T, 
 56 loquntur (= loquuntur), locuntur E> 
 
 1 Immediately afterwards both E and Tgive locuntur (loquuntur M). 
 
16 INTRODUCTION 
 
 In 74 for publico. M gives plublica, so 75, and in 8a for de publico it 
 has deplublico, so this must have been the spelling of the original. 
 
 In the speeches against Rullus there are hardly any faulty divisions. 
 I notice the following : 
 
 i. 4 vendi derunt (=vendiderunt), ii. 19 quod ammodo (=quodam modo), 
 93 septores (=se ptores), iii. 6 con iungitur (=coniungitur), n etiam nesi vieicit 
 (=etiamne si vi eiecit). 
 
 In the third speech the preposition is frequently joined to the 
 following substantive, e. g. 
 
 d 
 
 1 deme (=de me), 2 avobis (=a vobis), 13 apaucorum (=ad paucorum). 
 
 There are a considerable number of archaic spellings in M, some 
 of which also occur in E, or in the other MSS. connected with M. 
 
 I notice the following : 
 
 i. 18 optumi maxumi, so ii. 29 optuma, 96 optumis, and ii. 34 maxumis : 
 ii. 32 ferundus, 93 ferundum, 58 marituma, 91 capiundi, 28 pervorsum. 
 
 The accusative plural in -is survives in the following cases : 
 
 ii. 64 vectigalis, 66, 75, 77 omnis, 66 similis, 77 partis, urbis, 82 sedis, 
 98 pestilentis, 99 civis, gentis, 103 qiialis, talis, iii. 20 venalis. 
 
 That Poggio's MS. was written in a minuscule hand with a number 
 of contractions is clear from the following : 
 
 re re re re re 
 
 i. 7 divende (so ii. 29 iube, ib. gere, 75 obside), 10 fede (= foedere), 
 
 at 
 
 ii. 14 ano {anno, a mistake for ammo), nra (nfa must have been in the original), 
 
 o ni er 
 
 pt. = potestatum, a singular abbreviation, 23 arbitrami, 35 continetur, 40 st sint, 
 
 IT 
 
 85 aceime (i. e. ace'ime). iii. 6 igenio (i. e. lgenio). 
 
 Among noticeable spellings are : 
 
 i. 2 plubicorum ( = publ), so ii. 57 puplicum, 6 oscure (=obscure), 7 lolcum 
 ( = locum), 12 ampliximo (= -issimo). ii. 10 obstentant (so 78), 17 benificium 
 (so frequently), 24 adoloscentia, 25 custudia, 33 intollerantia (so always), 48 lu- 
 
 h 
 
 xuriosos (= -us), 53 Pompeiio, 65 orrido, 87 and 88 delecta (=deleta), 90 oppor- 
 tuna, 95 fraudolenti, 97 luxoriosis, 100 spondederunt. 
 
INTRODUCTION 17 
 
 That there were dittographies and variants in the original appears 
 from i. 6 GN. CN., ii. 21 XX viginti, 103 constistit (a conflation of 
 consistit and constitit). 
 
 These instances will suffice to show that M is so far an unsophisticated 
 MS. preserving many features of the archetype. 
 
 The case is somewhat different in the Pisoniana, since this was 
 written by a competent scholar who emended as he went along. This 
 may be seen from the following : 
 
 26 extintor extinctor, where the first would seem to have been in the original. 
 70 fieri] mg. firi, a corruption thought worthy of record. 7 1 f i philosophia, where 
 filosophia must have been in the original. 92 troh trophea, ib. trohi tropheorum. 
 
 t 
 In some cases he corrected a fault which he had reproduced, e.g. 18 consa, 57 
 
 a i 
 
 transiebas (-iebas V), 62 fructum (a mistake due to an 'open' a), 91 pristanas, 
 
 o 
 
 96 appidis. In 84 the MS. gives fedilissimis (=fide-) : that there was an odd 
 spelling in the original is clear, since by a blunder he shortly after repeats the 
 passage eisque cum fedelissimis. 
 
 There are hardly any abbreviations retained, and the only faulty 
 divisions which I have observed are : 
 
 12 in tegumentis, 40 imperpetuum, 41 ab domini, 90 uti nacheorum (=ut in 
 Achaeorum). 
 
 The rapidity of the writer is shown by the large number of cases in 
 which he has to correct a slip of the pen, e. g. : 
 
 16 expiatoris expiaretis, 20 legibus gionibus, 42 nc ne, 57 fastigium suffragium. 
 
 My general impression is that the MSS. found by Poggio were not 
 of any great antiquity, and probably not anterior to the twelfth century. 
 In the absence of his transcript its place is taken by M, which is ins tar 
 omnium. I have recorded in my edition the readings of osm, using the 
 symbol /i for their consensus, but I attach little importance to them. 
 They merely serve to correct here and there some propria menda of M, 
 which have been rectified in the common ancestor from which they are 
 sprung after reference to Poggio's apograph. It will, of course, be 
 understood that I have not confined myself to these MSS., but have 
 examined a large number of others in many libraries, all of which, 
 although belonging to the same family, are obviously further removed 
 from the fountain head. 
 
 With regard to the circumstances under which M was produced 
 [I. 11] b 
 
z8 INTRODUCTION 
 
 various hypotheses have occurred to me, but none of them are at all 
 satisfactory. The hand in which the earlier part of the MS. is written is 
 an unusual one to me, though I have noted a similar script in a Bologna 
 MS. (Bonon. 463). I had thought at one time that it might be non- 
 Italian, but the words of the colophon seem to prove two things, viz. 
 that it was (i) written in Italy, and (ii) copied from Poggio's transcript. 
 The hand in which the Pisoniana is written is the ordinary matins velox 
 of the time, and I cannot identify it with the hand of Poggio as found in 
 the Madrid MS. X. 81. How it is that the earlier part of this important 
 MS. was entrusted to so clumsy a writer as the first scribe is a mystery 
 which I cannot solve. 
 laur, xlviii I now turn to the three speeches which are not now found in M. 
 
 26 In view of the fact that w is proved to be the most faithful witness 
 
 where we are able to compare it with M, it is only natural to expect that 
 it will turn out to be equally superior to the other copies in these speeches 
 also, where we have not the testimony of M. This expectation is fully 
 borne out by the facts. It exhibits certain good readings, either peculiar 
 to itself, or found in only one or two other MSS., a large number of 
 simple corruptions, often corrected in the margin, while the other MSS. 
 have received the corrections into the text, and eccentric spellings which 
 gave way to the conventional orthography. It occupies in these speeches 
 the position which in the others belongs to M, and in them I term it 12 . 
 I have given some account of 12 in a previous Anecdoton. 1 I there 
 pointed out that it appears to have been written hurriedly by a relay of 
 scribes. On two occasions the new writer repeats a passage already 
 copied by his predecessor, having apparently been uncertain where to 
 begin. As I have re-examined 12 since then, I am able to rectify a point 
 in my previous description. The fourth copyist goes on until the end 
 of the Pisoniana, f. 41 r., in the sixteenth line of the page. Then comes 
 FINIS and the rest of the page is blank, also f. 41 v. A fifth writer 
 begins the speech pro Rabirio Postumo on f. 44 r., and a sixth succeeds 
 on f. 59 r. I stated that ff. 86 v. to 90 r. are left blank. I would now 
 supplement this by saying that the speeches pro Sex. Roscio and pro 
 Murena are obviously an addition to the original MS. 
 
 The marginalia in the case of the pro Caecina, contra Rullum, and 
 in Pisonem are written in the same hand as the text, so it would appear 
 
 1 Anecdota Oxon., x, p. lix. 
 
INTRODUCTION 19 
 
 that they already existed in the MS. which was being copied. In the 
 other speeches they generally proceed from a second hand resembling 
 that used for a portion of the speeches against Rullus (ff. 14 r.-i$ v.), 
 and not unlike that employed by the writer of the Pisoniana, who used 
 somewhat darker ink. It is possible that those in fainter ink may have 
 come from the first of these writers, and those in darker from the second. 
 It is only the first which are important, the others are generally an index 
 of names or notable words which occur in the text. 
 
 Among these marginalia there is one which throws light upon the date 
 of the MS., viz. 
 
 Pis. 61 oechete. a> mg., m. 1. 
 
 This correction can only come from V, which does not appear to 
 have come to light before 1435. 1 I would add to the facts mentioned in 
 my Preface a the further argument that, if V had been known earlier, 
 Poggio could not have claimed to be the discoverer of the Pisoniana. 
 
 An interesting note, which however throws no light upon the date, 
 occurs on Rab. Post. 24 
 
 plane confiteor fieri nihil posse dementius quam scientem in eum locum 
 venire ubi libertatem sis perditurus. 
 
 Here the second corrector adds in blacker ink contra dominum 
 paduanum papamque Io., referring to the imprisonment of the Duke of 
 Padua in 1405 and the deposition of John XXIII by the Council of 
 Constance in H^- 
 
 On one occasion the writer appears to give in the margin a facsimile 
 of what he found in his copy, viz. 
 
 Rab. Post. 4 huic ipsi Alexandrino grandem iam antea pecuniam credidit. 
 These words are omitted in the text, but added in the margin. Above 
 the supplement is crinem with a mark of reference to grandem, and below 
 it pecunia with a reference to pecuniam. These look like corruptions 
 inherited from the archetype. 
 
 The orthography of the MS. is interesting because it does not conform 
 to the practice of Poggio and his circle. Thus michi and nichil are 
 regularly given contrary to the teaching of Barzizza and Poggio, 3 while

 y is used frequently for i, e. g. ymago, ytalia, a practice condemned 
 in the previous generation by Coluccio. 1 Other abnormal spellings are 
 legiptimus, erripi, curnilis, substento, peccunia, condictio, referctus. There 
 are also a number of faulty divisions, which have disappeared from most 
 other MSS., and errors due to confusion of letters. 
 
 With regard to the connexion between 12 and the other MSS., we 
 are met by a similar difficulty to that which exists in the case of M, 
 viz. that there is a missing link. Thus it omits words which are found 
 in all other MSS. and which are clearly genuine. The chief cases are 
 Rose. Com. 29 secum om., 31 et ingeniosior om., $$ in societate om., 
 42 quid is dicit om. ; Rab. Post. 23 et clarum om., ib. 45 tua . . . 
 sestertio om. It also has varieties in collocation, e.g. Rose. Com. 
 44 existimatione bona 12 : bona existimatione cett., ib. 56 condonari 
 potuit suo nomine 12 : suo nomine condonare potuit cett., and proprii 
 errores, e. g. Rab. perd. 7 obicietur esse 12 : obiectum esset (esse \jr) 
 cett. ; Rab. Post. 33 vehementer defendissem ignoras 12 : vehementer 
 ignoras cett. The peculiarities are sometimes shared by one other 
 MS., e.g. Rose. Com. 31 hac de causa om. Sim; Rab. Post. 12 etiam 
 totus 12^: totus etiam cett. If, however, we postulate a missing MS. 
 which has been supplemented and corrected from the original tran- 
 script, 12 may be looked upon as the progenitor of the best MSS. It is 
 in any case the most faithful witness to the readings of the archetype, 
 and the subsequent development of the text is in the main a process of 
 correction and emendation. 
 
 The position which 12 occupies in relation to the MSS. already 
 described, viz. osm, is exactly the same as that which I found to exist in 
 the speeches previously discussed. I have also collated a large number 
 of other MSS. Two of these I have already described in a previous 
 Anecdoton, 1 viz. 
 
 b = S. Marci 255 (Lag. 6). 
 
 f — Laur. (Gadd.) XC. sup. 69. 
 
 I would here note that b does not contain the pro Rabirio Postutno. 
 It is, as I have already shown, a fairly early copy, probably made soon 
 after 1425, but does not possess any independent value. A large number 
 of corrections are found in V, as its character in other speeches would 
 
 1 i v - 83. 2 Anecdota Oxon., .-., pp. xlvii-liv. 
 
INTRODUCTION 2I 
 
 lead us to expect. A collation of f for a portion of the pro Roscio 
 Comoedo (§§ 1-7, 35, 50-6), made by Mommsen, was used by Baiter. 
 
 Among other MSS. which I have consulted three appear to stand 
 in specially close relation to 12, viz. 
 
 H = Matritensis 10097, formerly Toletanus 100. 14, and containing 
 the book-plate of Cardinal F. Xavier. 
 
 p = Paris. Nouv. Acq. 1564, containing the book-plate of Ercole da 
 Silva. 1 On the last page there is written Iste liber || |] || de Triuultio 
 miles ac ducalis Consiliarius, and lower down Theodorus de Triuultio. 
 
 q = Paris. 7788. This is Keller's a in thepro Quinctio. It is written 
 in a hand similar to those employed in fl, and at the beginning of the 
 Pisoniana it has the note found in 12 (and some other MSS.) referring to 
 Asconius. 
 
 Of these q contains the pro Rabirio Postumo only of these speeches, 
 while \i. and p omit the pro Roscio Comoedo. That there is a special 
 connexion between \i. and q would appear from the fact that in Rab. 
 Post. 34 both MSS. omit the words stultitiam alia iam superior. 
 
 Among omissions peculiar to //. in this speech I would mention the follow- 
 ing : § 12 cum in Gabinium . . . nihil om. ; § 23 sed ego in . . . docto om. ; § 27 nee 
 vero id . . . crimen om. ; § 28 nomine . . . Postumo om. ; and among those peculiar 
 to q § 1 3 ius . . . ordinem quae om. ; § 2 7 crimen vestitus . . . Postumo. In § 4 p 
 gives ptholomeus ut dixit simul ac sensit postumius med. om. 
 
 Among other MSS. which I have collated I would mention : 
 
 t = Senensis H. XI. 61. This is written litteris antiquis, the imita- 
 tion of a Carlovingian hand being unusually successful. In it the process 
 of correction has made great strides, and it contains a number of successful 
 conjectures, e. g. Rab. Post. 46 optat miser ut vel, also some which are 
 highly plausible, e.g. ib. 1 om. opes. It serves as a connecting link 
 between osm and those MSS. which contain the latest feats of Italian 
 ingenuity. 
 
 n = Ambros. C. 121 inf. Muller thought this the best of the six 
 MSS. collated by Studemund, setting it above Ambros. C. 96 supr. (m). 
 In this I cannot agree with him. The readings to which he refers are 
 all due to conjecture, and, as he himself points out, we must not trust 
 those MSS. which 'pro aperte corruptis emendata habeant'. The MS. 
 
 1 Cf. Delisle, Cabinet des MSS., ii. 315. 
 
22 INTRODUCTION 
 
 does not contain the pro Roscio Comoedo. I collated it for the other two 
 speeches, but finally struck out its variants as encumbering my Apparatus 
 to no purpose. 
 
 An extraordinary number of conjectures, sometimes brilliant, are to 
 be found in two MSS. which I must reserve for special treatment later 
 on, viz. 
 
 c = Oxon. Canonici 226. 
 k = Paris. 7779. 
 
 The latter MS. was used by Keller for the speeches pro Quinctio 
 and pro Caecina. I denote the agreement of ck by the symbol g. 
 
 I have also examined other MSS. at Oxford, London, Paris, Milan, 
 Venice, S. Daniele, Bologna, Florence, and Rome, but without result. I 
 noticed some good readings in S. Daniele 60 (e. g. Rab. perd. 20 ede sui 
 ancus), but had not time to make a collation. 
 
 The relation existing between the MSS. which I have described may 
 be shown by the following cases taken from the speeches pro Rabirio 
 perduellionis reo and pro Rabirio Postumo. I omit for this purpose the 
 pro Roscio Comoedo, since it does not occur in npq.

 These instances will suffice to show the priority of 12. My general 
 conclusion is that in these speeches it is instar omnium, like M in those 
 previously discussed. 
 
 A second MS. containing the speeches against Rullus and Piso was Cod. Cusani. 
 shortly afterwards discovered by Nicolas Krebs of Cusa near Treves, called 
 Nicolaus Treverensis or Nicolaus Cusanus by his contemporaries, 1 
 a well-known discoverer and theologian, some of whose books are still to 
 be found in the library of the Hospital of St. Nicholas at Cues. Accord- 
 ing to Sabbadini he went with Cardinal Orsini to Germany in 1425 when 
 twenty-four years of age, and discovered at Cologne a bibliotheca pul- 
 verulenta containing 800 pervetusti codices. Among these MSS., the 
 most famous of which is the Orsini codex of Plautus, was one containing 
 the speeches de lege agraria and the Pisoniana. Nicolaus returned to 
 Rome in May, 1427, with the news of his discovery, left for Cologne at 
 the end of that year, and came back with the MSS. in December, 1429. 2 
 
 It would be natural to expect that the second MS. discovered by 
 Nicolaus would influence the Italian tradition of these speeches. The 
 question, therefore, arises whether the fifteenth-century MSS. of these 
 speeches are all derived from the Poggian fount, or if there is another 
 family. 
 
 With regard to the speeches against Rullus the facts are clear, since 
 
 1 Sabbadini, Scoperte, p. 109. 2 ib. p. 111. Cf. La scuola di Guarino, p. 102. 
 
24 INTRODUCTION 
 
 the collations of Lagomarsini, who used eleven Florentine MSS., have 
 been printed by A. W. Zumpt. They fall into two well-defined groups, 
 the first of which is the Poggian family, consisting of MSS. with some of 
 which I have already dealt, viz. 
 
 Lagg. 9, 20, 26 (u>), 38 (0), 39 (M), and the first hand in Lag. 3 ( x ). 
 
 The second group consists of 
 
 Lagg. 1, 7, 8, 13, 24, and the second hand in Lag. 3. 
 
 It is impossible to derive the second family from the first, since 
 their readings very frequently agree with the independent MSS. Ee, 
 subsequently discovered. No one, however, has attempted to explain 
 its existence. The hypothesis suggested itself to me that these MSS. 
 are connected with the MS. found by Nicolaus. In order to verify this, 
 it was necessary for me to examine these MSS. in the Pisoniana, as Lago- 
 marsini's collations for this speech have not been printed, and have dis- 
 appeared from the library of Vittorio Emanuele. I found that in this 
 speech also Lagg. 1, 7, 8, 13, 24, and the second hand in Lagg. 3 
 continually agree. 1 The phenomena, therefore, appear to verify the 
 hypothesis, and to show that there is a familia Cusana as well as a 
 familia Poggiana. 
 
 I have taken some trouble in endeavouring to make out the develop- 
 ment of this group, which presents various features which at first I found 
 very puzzling. The MS. which appears to be prior to the rest is 
 Lag. 3 (x)- That the basis of the text is derived from the Poggian 
 family is clear. I quote the following agreements with M sol. 
 
 Hull. ii. 17 privaretur. Totiens legibus agrariis curatores constituti sunt. 
 
 In both M and x these words are added in the margin. 
 
 ib. 102 in pace omni] in pace tn omni M: in pace tfi. omni % s °l- 
 
 A considerable number of readings which the evidence of Ee shows 
 to be genuine, and which, therefore, I connect with the cod. Cusani, are 
 found in the text of x- These must have been inserted as marginalia in 
 the MS. from which x has been copied. I instance the following cases 
 0* = Lagg. 9, 20, 26, 38).

 1 Mr. W. Ashbumer supplied me with the readings of Lagg. 1, 8 in a number of passages 
 which I had not time to examine personally. 
 
INTRODUCTION 25 
 
 The first collation of the cod. Cusani appears to have been more 
 minute in the Pisoniana than in the speeches against Rullus. Thus x 
 contains a considerable number of glosses and menda which occur in 
 Ee, e. g. 
 
 Pis. 1 1 conivente] conveniente Ee-%. ib. eo] eo clodio Ee\. 
 
 The proceedings of the second hand in x are very curious. On the 
 one hand he entered a very large number of variants proved by similar 
 evidence to have come from the cod. Cusani, e. g. 
 
 Rull. ii. 103 denuntiavi Ee^ : om. M/jl. ib. turbulenti Ee-^ : turbulentum 
 Mp. ib. constarent Eerf : conflarent Mp. ib. reperto Ee, repeto x 2 : om. Mp. 
 
 On the other he deleted some readings in the text of x, which had 
 previously come into it from the cod. Cusani. This is most frequent in 
 the Pisoniana, which had received a fuller collection of variants from this 
 source than the speeches against Rullus. I instance the following : 
 
 Pis. 11 conveniente Ee^ 1 : conivente x 2 - 19 cum clodio illo Ee-£ : cum 
 illo x 2 - 22 aut vomuerit E^ 1 : an vomuerit x 2 . 38 nonexactas VEe^ 1 : nondum 
 exactas x 2 . ib. Macedonicis VEerf : Macedonibus x 2 - 41 non modo ego VEe-^ : 
 ego non modo x 2 - 42 famae V: fama Eetf : infamia x 2 . 45 recordationem . . .

 59 praeclara V: paratae clara Ee£: paratae x 2 - 81 imperium Py£ : imperio x 2 - 
 
 In all these cases x 2 reverts to the reading of M/x. It will be noticed 
 that some of the banished variants are supported by V and by the 
 Palimpsest (P), as well as by Ee. 
 
 The other members of the group appear to be posterior to x- I 
 style them 11. I have noticed some flaws in them which seem to find an 
 explanation in Xi e - g- 
 
 Rull. iii. 15 nunc] num M^ : in mg. ' deficit ' add. x 2 : om. n. 
 
 The following case is interesting : 
 
 s esset 
 
 Rull. ii. 97 facili sese Mp: facili sese (in mg. facilis sese) x- Here Lagg. 
 1 and 24 have facilis esset with x 2 , while 7, 18, 13 have facilis sese with x mg. 
 
 The corrections and marginalia due to x 2 regularly appear in n. 
 The internal evidence, however, shows that n have received a conside- 
 rable influx of fresh readings from the cod. Cusani, in addition to those 
 adopted from x 2 - There is therefore a missing link between x 2 and the 
 ancestor of n. I quote the following cases : 
 
 Rull. i. 14 facio M^x '■ f acit0 Een - 20 ac stellatem M/j-x- et stellatem Em. 
 
26 INTRODUCTION 
 
 ii. i mihi quidem M^x ■ mihique Em. 3 per se M^x : per sese Em. ib. inferius

 creandis Em. 37 vos de Mpx- nos de Em. 45 vestros M^x'- nostros Een. 
 55 qui hoc Mjxx '■ qui haec En. 
 
 The facts to which I have drawn attention show that the cod. 
 Cusani had so far been examined at least three times by collators in 
 search of variants. There are clear indications in Lag. 24 that a fourth 
 collation took place in the case of the Pisoniana. The history of Lag. 24 
 can be made out with certainty, and is extremely interesting as showing 
 the complicated nature of the problems connected with this group. 
 
 We have proof positive that an ancestor of Lag. 24 was in the 
 speeches against Rullus actually copied from M, since a passage omitted 
 by Lag. 24 occupies exactly one line in M. The passages, however, 
 omitted by M in these speeches (ii. 40, iii. 17) are found in Lag. 24. In 
 the Pisoniana there is similar proof that Lag. 24 is derived from Lag. 13, 
 a member of the n group, the evidence being that a passage which 
 occupies one line in Lag. 13 is added at the foot of the page in Lag. 24. 1 
 It is, therefore, surprising to find that in the Pisoniana Lag. 24, which 
 I term <j>, has a fresh sheaf of readings from the cod. Cusani. These are 
 of two kinds, viz. 
 
 (i) Readings adopted by the first collator which appear in the text 
 of x> but were struck out by x 2 > e - g-

 (ii) New readings supported by Ee or by the Palimpsest (P), which 
 must represent a genuine tradition. There are also agreements with V, 
 but these are not so cogent, as they may possibly have been taken from 
 V. I give the following examples : 
 
 18 relinquis P<j> : non relinquis cett. 31 prosequebantur E<f> : persequebantur 
 cett. 53 tuum pristinum V<j> : pristinum tuum cett. 59 factus V<f> 1 : Actus cett.

 ' Praefat., p. xii. 
 
INTRODUCTION 27 
 
 I, therefore, look upon as the most highly corrected member of 
 the group. 
 
 I am, of course, conscious that the results arrived at by this analysis 
 are not adequate to the labour involved by the examination. The 
 gradual development, however, of the recension is highly instructive as 
 an example of the Italian method of correction by successive marginalia. 
 If it be asked why they did not copy the MS. in toto, instead of extract- 
 ing variae lectiones, I would refer to the treatment of the Cluniacensis by 
 the French scribe in the speeches pro Milone, pro Cluentio, and pro 
 Caelio, and to the continual influx into the Italian MSS. of readings 
 taken from this source, which I have illustrated in a previous Anecdoton. 1 
 
 I have elsewhere said that the familia Cusana is very largely repre- 
 sented in the MSS. which exist in various libraries. I will supply the 
 reader with a simple test by which he can distinguish the strains. The 
 first words of the Pisoniana are in these MSS. given as 
 
 Iamne sentis, bellua, iamne sentis. 
 In M\x. and their fellows as 
 
 lam vides, bellua, iamne sentis. 
 
 He will find that the MSS. which here read iamne sentis belong to 
 the familia Cusana in the speeches against Rullus, and those which have 
 iam vides to the familia Poggiana. 
 
 I now proceed to consider two MSS., which I have reserved for 
 special treatment, viz. 
 
 C = Oxon. Canon. 226. 0x ° n - Canon. 
 
 k = Pans. 7779. Paris. 7779. 
 
 The latter MS., which I have previously referred to in connexion 
 with the pro Quinctio, contains at the end of the volume the following 
 entry : 
 
 De pavye au roy Loys XII. Deo gratias M. 
 
 D. sexto kal. Martias 1459. 
 
 It was also used by Keller for the pro Caecina. In both of these 
 speeches it possesses a large number of striking readings which are 
 without doubt due to conjecture. It has not been used for the other 
 speeches which it contains. 
 
 I was first led to take an interest in it by the Oxford MS. (c), in 
 
 1 Anecdota Oxon., x, pp. xlvi sqq. 
 
28 INTRODUCTION 
 
 which I found a number of emendations which have occurred to various 
 scholars. As I found that in the speeches pro Quinctio and pro Caecina 
 ck generally agree, I collated k in the speeches upon which I have been 
 working, and those contained in a previous volume {pro Sex. Roscio, etc.). 
 The two MSS. are closely connected, but the process of emendation is 
 generally more advanced in k than in c. In a number of cases c 2 = k. 
 
 I have found the following number of notable readings in the 
 speeches which I have just edited. Some occur in one of the two MSS., 
 the majority in both. 
 
 pro Quinctio 49, pro Roscio Comoedo 22, pro Caecina 72, contra Rullum 64, 
 pro Rabirio perduellionis reo 5, pro Flacco 22, in Pisonem 28, pro Rabirio 
 Postumo 20. 
 
 I quote a few of the more noticeable examples. Where c and k 
 agree I use the symbol $.

 while to collate ck, in view of the wealth of evidence, and the Pompeiana 
 in which I found nothing of value. I place in brackets the authority

 I think it probable that several MSS. belonging to this class will 
 come to light in future. It is obvious that Angelius and Naugerius 
 must have derived many of their emendations from this source. 
 Lauredanus makes frequent reference to a MS. which belonged to the Cad. 
 same family, e.g. Rull. ii. 38 quae loca {quae) aedificia cod. Lauredani Lauredani - 
 so k. It is, therefore, not unfair to suppose that other more striking 
 readings which occur in q, for which he does not quote a MS., were 
 borrowed by him from the anonymous Italian critics whose labours are 
 buried in these MSS. Lambinus used a MS. of this class which belonged 
 to St. Denis, e. g. Flacc. 2,4, where he prints a reading et conjiciendarum 
 litterarum diligentissitna which I have only found in k, saying ' huius 
 loci emendatio debetur codici manuscr. ex coenobio divi Dionysii et 
 Adr. Turnebo'. Turnebus in his Adversaria quotes readings charac- Cad. TumeM. 
 teristic of q in the speeches against Rullus and the pro Rabirio Postumo 
 from a vetus codex. As in an unpublished collation of the latter speech 
 which I found in the Bibliotheque Nationale he calls his MS. D, I am 
 inclined to think that he used the same MS. as Lambinus. Graevius 
 quotes freely from a MS. of the same class which belonged to 
 P. Francius, saying of it that he is convinced that it had formerly been 
 used by Turnebus, since it contains all the variants which he quotes in 
 his notes upon the speeches against Rullus. I would illustrate the 
 methods of these scholars from Rull. ii. 93 vegrandi made torridum k : 
 ut grandi macie torridum cett. 
 
 Lauredanus says ' voces hae, ut grandi, vitiose se habent. Neque 
 enim exstat particula quae ut particulae respondeat. Videndum ne 
 vegrandi legi possit '. Lambinus says ' vegrandi hie esse legendum 
 iampridem indicavi '. Turnebus remarks ' melius liber scriptus vegrandi, 
 quo etiam modo, ut ait meus Lodegarius, emendabat Lambinus'. 
 Graevius adds 'in Francii libra planissime legitur vegrandi'. 
 
 As the contributions of Turnebus to the pro Rabirio Postumo are 
 of some importance, I have thought it worth while to print the margin- 
 alia which occur in his copy. Most of the readings are ascribed to D : 
 other cases where he does not use this symbol are conjectures made by 
 
3 2 INTRODUCTION 
 
 himself or mentioned to him by friends. It will be noticed that his most 
 famous conjecture in this speech, viz. § 40 cataplus, is in his rough notes 
 ascribed to D. In his Adversaria he assigns to it atata plus, which 
 seems more likely, although Lambinus claims to have found cataplus in 
 a MS. His note is somewhat characteristic, viz. 
 
 sic scriptum reperi in uno codice Memmiano, quomodo tamen Adr. Turnebus 
 ex alia antiqua scriptura aliquantum depravata legendum coniecerat quae talis est 
 atata plus : tanta est hominis elo-Toxia- 
 
 It is noticeable that in § 35 Turnebus does not quote D for mimorum 
 (so q), while in the Adversaria (I. c.) he says ' mimorum e veteri libro lego '. 
 Lambinus says 
 
 aliquot ante diebus quam hunc locum in codicibus antiquis inspexissem, 
 Adr. Turnebus, collega meus, vir singulari doctrina praeditus, sola coniectura 
 fretus, a nullis exemplaribus veteribus adiutus, divinaverat ita legendum esse, 
 quam ad modum edidi, mimorum argumenla, cuius coniecturam cum ego sola eius 
 auctoritate adductus magnopere probavissem, sequique cogitassem, manus sustuli 
 postquam earn ipsam scripturam reperi in libris Memmianis expressam. 
 
 Neither scholar was aware that mimorum was already printed in the 
 editio Veneta of 147 1. So true is it that nothing is new in criticism. 
 
 The instances given will show that 9 form a quarry which has been 
 used by a number of distinguished scholars who have not been over- 
 careful to record their obligations, while very many conjectures made 
 by numerous critics down to the present day are now shown to have 
 been anticipated. The astonishing fact is that so much should have 
 been done in so short a time. This is especially noticeable in the 
 case of the speeches discovered by Poggio in 1415 and 1417. In a 
 previous Anecdoton I endeavoured to trace the development of what 
 I termed ' the latest Italian recension ' as found in the Salisburgensis, 
 and drew particular attention to the great collection of emendations 
 presented by i/c 2 . I did not then suspect that it was possible to go 
 further. It is now, however, obvious that in c and k we have fresh 
 results of Italian criticism even more considerable than those represented 
 by \p. We have also a terminus ad quern — viz. 1459, as shown by the 
 date of k — within which the process was completed. This period of 
 forty years was one of extraordinary fertility so far as the study of 
 Cicero was concerned, and I should suspect that a similar inquiry would 
 
INTRODUCTION 33 
 
 show the same results in the case of many other Latin authors. It is 
 interesting to notice that k was written just twelve years before the first 
 editions (edd. VR) of Cicero's speeches appeared. The first result of 
 printing was to kill the critical spirit. The feverish activity of the 
 Renaissance subsides, and successive editions reproduce with insignificant 
 alterations the text of the Veneta or the Romana. It is not until forty 
 or fifty years later that Angelius and Naugerius begin to emend once 
 more, largely availing themselves of the results arrived at by their 
 anonymous predecessors quos fama obscura recondit. In the middle of 
 the sixteenth century the great French scholars drew freely from this 
 source, without suspecting that the veteres libri to which they refer 
 merely attest the ingenuity of unknown scholars who had anticipated 
 their results a hundred years before their time.

 THE NUMERALS IN CICERO 
 PRO Q. ROSCIO COMOEDO 
 
 [This paper was written by me when I was at work upon the text of this 
 speech. It was not until some months afterwards that I saw a work by Prof. 
 Pfliiger, of Bonn, from which I found that he, accepting Mommsen's correction in 
 §§ 3 2_ 33» nas drawn conclusions at which Mommsen hints and which I had 
 endeavoured to formulate. Prof. Pfliiger is mainly concerned with the legal 
 aspect of the case, while I approached the question from the textual point of view. 
 I have, therefore, ventured to print my paper as it was originally written, pointing 
 out where I have been anticipated by him.] 
 
 The difficulties which are presented by the figures in the speech 
 pro Roscio Comoedo are well known. Roby says tersely of the speech 
 that its ' difficulty is increased by the frequent mention of different sums 
 of money intimately connected with its very substance, whereon, however, 
 the MSS. maintain no consistent story'. He follows the figures given in 
 Baiter-Halm, but says that he does not trust them. 
 
 The first editor to emend the corruptions presented by the MSS. 
 was Naugerius in the Aldina of 1519. His system still holds the field, 
 and is based upon two principles which appear to be correct. The first 
 is that where the MSS. give liii he reads 1333, and the second that 
 where they give cccliii he emends to CCCI333. These are both 
 simple and natural changes, and doubtless there are many parallels for 
 the corruptions. There is one for the first in Caec. 28, where liii is 
 emended to 1333 by Keller, who is followed by all editors. It is the 
 object of this paper to show that, although the equations of 1333 and 
 CCCI333 with liii and cccliii are generally correct where the MSS. 
 agree in giving these numerals, Naugerius has erred in introducing them 
 in some cases where the MSS. give other forms or symbols, or contradict 
 this emendation. 
 
APPENDIX 35 
 
 It will be convenient to state the facts as briefly as possible, 
 avoiding technical points of law already discussed in various monographs. 
 Q. Roscius, the actor, trained for the stage Panurgus, a slave of 
 C. Fannius. The body of Panurgus, Cicero says, belonged to Fannius 
 and his art to Roscius. Panurgus was killed by a certain Q. Flavius of 
 Tarquinii. Roscius sues Flavius for damage, appointing Fannius his 
 cognitor. Before the case came into court Flavius compounded with 
 Roscius, handing over to him a farm which was at that time in a bad 
 condition and depreciated in value propter rei publicae calamitates, but 
 which afterwards became much more valuable (§ 33). This decisio took 
 place fifteen years 1 before the present proceedings (§ 37). Roscius held 
 that he was acting for himself only in making this compromise, and that 
 his partner, Fannius, remained free to take whatever steps he thought 
 proper against Flavius. Fannius, however, took no action for twelve 
 years ; then, three years before the trial, he brought an action against 
 Roscius before an arbitrator, C. Piso. It is usual to say that he claimed 
 50,000 sesterces. This is founded upon a statement in § 10, quid . . . de 
 his ipsis HS LIII (1333 Naugerius) . . . arbitrum sumpseris, where 
 Cicero is comparing the present claim of Fannius against Roscius and 
 that which he had previously brought against him, and it suits his 
 purpose to minimize the amount of the previous claim. 
 
 Cicero, however, does not mention any figure when he describes the 
 arbitration, § 38, and the language which he uses when stating the difference 
 between an arbitrium and a indicium suggests that the claim was vague 
 and founded on equity quantum aequius melius." 1 In any case Piso showed 
 his conception of what was aequius melius by awarding to Fannius ccciodo 
 (so Naugerius, cccliii codd.), subject to an obligation on the part of 
 Fannius to pay Roscius half of anything which he might himself obtain 
 from Flavius. The figure CCCI333 has provoked much scepticism on 
 account of the belief that Fannius had definitely claimed 50,000 sesterces 
 only, and various emendations have been proposed, viz. CCI33 133 
 (Lambinus) = 15,000, cci33 (Manutius) = 10,000, and 1333 (Ernesti) 
 = 50,000. Roscius paid Fannius half of the award as a first instalment 
 {pensid). This is stated in the MSS. to have been liii, for which

 C 2 
 
36 APPENDIX 
 
 Naugerius gives 1333, as elsewhere where liii is employed. His 
 emendation is accepted by all editors, including those who suspect 
 CCCI333 in § 38. Subsequently, according to Cicero, Fannius brought 
 an action against Flavius, the index being a Roman knight named 
 Cluvius, who awarded him cccliii sesterces (ccci333 Naugerius). 1 This 
 figure is continually repeated in the latter part of the speech. Roscius 
 did not pay Fannius his second instalment {altera pensio) of 50,000 
 sesterces. As Roby points out, he was entitled to receive half of what 
 Fannius had got from Flavius, viz. 50,000 sesterces, and so held that 
 they were quits. 
 
 Fannius now sues Roscius for this sum 1333 (liii coda 1 ., § 12), being 
 half of the whole nomen CCCI333 (cccliii codd., § 4). The case came 
 again before Piso, who on this occasion was no longer an arbiter but 
 a index, and was conducted by a sponsio, SI PARET HS 1333 (liii codd.) 
 dari (§ 11). This figure is frequently repeated, and the correction is 
 universally accepted. 
 
 So far there has been no variety in the reading of the MSS., which 
 give consistently the two figures liii and cccliii. I now come to 
 a passage where there is an important difference (§§ 32, 33). 
 
 Cicero is dealing with the point that Roscius had made a good 
 bargain, since his farm had greatly appreciated in value. He uses the 
 form of a dialogue between the disputants, which in the MSS. appears 
 as follows : 
 
 Fannius. At enim tu tuum negotium gessisli bene. 
 
 Roscius. Gere et tu tuum bene. 
 
 Fannius. Magno z tuam dimidiam partem decidisti. 
 
 Roscius. Magno et tu tuam partem decide. 
 
 Fannius. HS que cccliii tu abstulisti. 
 
 Roscius. Si fit hoc vero 3 HS que tu aufer. 
 
 Naugerius, in the last statement of Fannius, for HS que cccliii 
 reads HS CCCI333, and, in the answer of Roscius, for HS que tu 
 gives HS CCCI333 tu quoque. This is violent surgery, and offers no 
 explanation of the strange corruption que. The first person to see the 
 significance of this word was Mommsen, who interprets it as a corruption 
 
 1 Cluvius was not in court, and his statement was only proved by hearsay evidence. Fannius 
 denied that any such award had been made (§§ 42-56). 
 
 1 (tu) tuam A'augerius. 3 I read sit ita hoc, vcro. 
 
APPENDIX 37 
 
 of Q., i.e. 500,000. The process by which he arrived at this result is 
 interesting. In Hermes iii. 467 (1869) he proposed to give this sense to 
 a symbol Q., which he found in two inscriptions. In Hermes vii. 366 
 (1873) he says that Studemund had referred him to a passage in 
 Priscian, de fig. num. (Keil, p. 407), where it is directly stated that Q. has 
 this meaning, viz. ' quingenta milia per Q., quod est initium nominis et 
 apostrophon I', and quotes a passage in Cicero's Letters, y4z7. ix. 9. 4 
 volui HS Q., where it survives in the MSS. It is interesting to note 
 that Q. here was explained as = quingenta milia by Corradus and other 
 early scholars. Finally, in Hermes xx. 317 (1885), Mommsen refers to 
 the corruption in this passage, and proposes to read the last statement 
 and rejoinder thus : 
 
 Fannius. HS q. ccciodo tu abstulisti. 
 
 Roscius. Sit hoc verum, HS q. (ccciood) tu aufer. 
 
 He points out that the reference is to the great rise in the value of 
 the farm received by Roscius, which nunc multo phtris est quam time 
 fnit (§ q,^). I wish to propose a modification of Mommsen's emendation. 
 It will be noticed that in the answer of Roscius we have que only, without 
 the numeral cccliii (cccidoo), which Mommsen introduces from the 
 previous line. It appears to me far more likely that HS Q. was the 
 original reading in both cases, and that cccliii was introduced to 
 supply a numeral when the sense of Q. (or -que) was forgotten. I would 
 also remark that 500,000 is more of a round number than 600,000, and 
 therefore more likely to have been used by an advocate. 
 
 Mommsen says briefly that the correction is not without importance 
 in connexion with the various problems presented by the speech. He 
 does not, however, develop the consequences, which I now endeavour to 
 do. 1 So long as CCCI3D3, the correction of Naugerius, is read here, 
 the behaviour both of Roscius and of Fannius is inexplicable. Roscius 
 has a fundus worth 100,000 sesterces. Fannius claims 50,000. The 
 arbitrator awards Fannius 100,000 sesterces, subject to the obligation to 
 repay half of what he might obtain from Flavius. Roby remarks, ' It 
 looks as if we had to allocate the half to remuneration for Fannius' 
 trouble and regard the other 50,000 as Fannius' share of what Roscius 
 
 1 It is at this point that I have been anticipated by Professor Pfliiger. 
 
38 APPENDIX 
 
 received, though why Roscitis should have received nothing for himself is 
 a problem. I do not trust the figures.' Fannius next proceeds to get 
 100,000 sesterces from Flavius, and although he does not pay Roscius 
 half as he was bound to do, ventures to sue him for 50.OCO sesterces, the 
 altera pensio of the amount awarded by Piso. This is all very 
 mysterious. If, however, we read Q. (or Q. ccciood), everything 
 becomes intelligible. Roscius compromises his claim for a farm of no 
 great value. Fannius takes no action. Possibly he did not think 
 Flavius worth powder and shot, or possibly he may have thought that 
 he would get more out of him in money by and by. In course of time 
 it becomes clear that Roscius has made a splendid investment, worth 
 500,000 (or 600,000) sesterces. Fannius now becomes jealous and brings 
 an action against Roscius, claiming a share in this. There must have 
 been some doubt about the facts, since Fannius, as the cognitor of 
 Roscius, had taken a prominent part in the litigation. The contention 
 of Roscius that he had settled his claim without his partner, when that 
 partner was also his cognitor, though possibly true, must have been 
 difficult to prove. Consequently there is nothing surprising in the much- 
 discussed award of Piso, viz. ioo,coo sesterces subject to the rcpromissio 
 of Fannius. On the contrary it seems to accord with the dictates of 
 quantum acquius melius. Fannius, however, still has a grievance. Even 
 after he has himself received 100,000 sesterces from Flavius, it rankles 
 in his mind that Roscius has done so much better than himself. He, 
 therefore, brings an action against Roscius for the second instalment of 
 50,000 sesterces, while denying that he has himself received anything 
 from Flavius. 
 
 There remain two other passages which appear to have been 
 wrongly treated by Naugerius. The first of these is in §§ 28, 39. Cicero 
 is discussing the relative shares of the two partners in Panurgus. He 
 says that Panurgus really belonged entirely to Roscius, ego totum Roscii 
 fuisse contendo, since it was not his facics but his ars that was valuable. 
 The reading of the MSS. is as follows: 
 
 Ex qua parte erat Fannii, non erat HS liii 00 , ex qua parte erat Roscii, 
 amplius erat HS cccliii cccl ; nemo enim ilium ex trunco corporis spectabat, sed 
 ex artificio comico aestimabat; nam ilia membra merere per se non amplius 
 poterant duodecim aeris ; disciplina, quae erat ab hoc tradita, locabat se non 
 minus HS cccliii. O societatem captiosam et indignam ubi alter HS lii 00 , alter 
 
APPENDIX 39 
 
 liii quod sit in societatem adfert. Nisi idcirco moleste pateris quod HS liii go tu 
 ex area proferebas, HS cccliii liii ex disciplina et artificio promebat, 1 
 
 Here it will be noticed that the share of Fannius is placed twice at 
 LIII oo and once at LII oo , a trifling discrepancy. That of Roscius is 
 first given as cccliii cccl, then as cccliii, then as liii, and lastly 
 as cccliii liii. Two things are essential in any scientific treatment 
 of this passage, viz. that the rare symbol oo (=1,000) should be retained, 
 and that the new figures cccliii cccl or cccliii liii should serve 
 as the starting-point in fixing the share of Roscius. Both condi- 
 tions are violated by Naugerius, who throughout gives iddd for the 
 share of Fannius, and ccciddo for that of Roscius. The value given 
 to the fades of Panurgus is quite absurd, since 50,000 sesterces would 
 be a very high price for a slave who possessed unusual accomplishments, 
 while it is essential to Cicero's argument that apart from his ars he was 
 quite worthless. He expresses this by a strong hyperbole, when he 
 says that the limbs of Panurgus could not earn duodecim aeris, i. e. 
 12 asses (Gell. xx. 12). According to Madvig the sesterce was origin- 
 ally equal to i\ asses, and subsequently to 4. If we take the latter 
 figure 12 asses = 3 sesterces, so that Panurgus is treated as non trcssis 
 agaso (Pers. v. 76). 
 
 Baiter first saw the absurdity of this, and emended liii 00 to mi 00 
 (4,000), thus keeping the rare symbol co , and reducing the numeral to 
 a more reasonable figure. Mommsen, however, in the paper already 
 referred to {Hermes xx. 317), objects that 4,000 is always nil milia, or 
 Im, or 00 00 00 00 , and proposes 133 00 (6,000). With regard to the 
 share of Roscius, starting from the corruptions cccliii cccl and 
 cccliii liii, he makes it ccciooo 1333 (150,000), a natural and easy 
 correction, which appears to me clearly right. I do not, however, 
 feel at all convinced by his other conjecture, viz. ioo 00 (6,000). In the 
 first place the figure is a high one. We find in Hor. Ep. ii. 3. 5 that 
 a beautiful verna is only priced at 8,coo sesterces, while a cheap slave 
 is rated at 2,000 sesterces (ib. Sat. ii. 7. 43)- l feel that Panurgus here 
 was meant to be very cheap, especially in view of the statement that he 
 could not earn more than 12 asses a year. The key, I think, is to be 
 
 1 So codd., except two highly corrected MSS. which give {ilk) ex. The editio Romana has 
 {Roscius') promebat. On grounds of rhythm I prefer promebat {Roscius) to this, or to Baiter's 
 conjecture {hie) ex. 
 
4 o APPENDIX 
 
 found in the previous passage (§ 32), where, according to my contention, 
 a numeral (cccliii) has been introduced after the rare symbol Q. 
 I would here read throughout HS so for HS liii 00. It is interesting 
 to notice that in the Digest (xxi. 1. 57, § 1) the price of an ordinary 
 slave without a craft is given as 10 aurei, which, according to Marquardt, 
 who reckons the aureus as = 18 marks, comes to .£9, almost exactly 
 equal to 1,000 sesterces (' = .£8 17J. id.' L. and S.). 1 
 
 The second passage is one where Cicero is discussing the income of 
 Roscius, using this as an argument that he would not stoop to commit 
 a small fraud (§ 23). The reading of the MSS. is : 
 
 qui HS cccliii cccliii cccliii quaestus facere noluit, nam certe HS cccliii 
 cccliii cccliii merere et potuit et debuit, si potest Dionysia HS cccliii cccliii 
 
 merere, is per summam fraudem et malitiam et perfidiam HS liii appetiit 
 
 Decern his annis proximis HS sexagies honestissime consequi potuit : 
 
 noluit. 
 
 Naugerius, according to his recipe, reads CCCI333 for cccliii 
 and I3D3 for liii, and is followed by all editors. There is, however, 
 a most startling discrepancy in these figures, since 300,000 x 10 = 3,000,000 
 (tricies) not 6,000,000 (sexagies). 2 This was noticed by Hotoman, who 
 says that he can find no solution (' neque equidem quem ad modum 
 hunc nodum expediam coniectura assequi possum '). A note of Harduin 
 suggests that in his opinion the income of Roscius must be put at 600,000 
 sesterces a year, but he does not propose any emendation. Schiitz, 
 according to Orelli, suggested HS ID333 CCCL033 (600,000), but no 
 editor seems to have printed this. It appears to me that there are only 
 two alternatives, viz. either to read 6co,ooo, or for decern (x) to read 
 viginti (xx). It is easy to see how the corruption in the first case would 
 arise. If idddd became corrupted (like CCCI333 throughout) to 
 cccliii, then the incomes attributed to Roscius and to Dionysia would 
 be the same. It would then be inevitable to insert a third cccliii, in 
 order to give Roscius the advantage. 
 
 There is other evidence concerning the income of Roscius which 
 though not conclusive, is in favour of 600,000. In Pliny, N. H. vii. 129, 
 editors give cum apud maiores Roscius histrio HS D annua meritasse 
 
 1 Marquardt, Privatleben, p. 171. 
 
 2 I cannot accept the explanation of Budaeus (de Asse, p. 278) that sexagies is used loosely 
 for infmilae pecuniae. Cicero is obviously doing a sum in multiplication. 
 
APPENDIX 4I 
 
 prodatur (i. e. 500,000). Here the MSS. appear to give in. D, of which 
 HS D is the simple and obvious correction. Macrobius, iii. 14. 13, says 
 of him that ' mercedem diurnam de publico mille denarios sine gregalibus 
 solus acceperit\ This, as Hotoman points out, if taken literally, would 
 come to 1,460.000 sesterces a year, a far larger figure. Perhaps, however, 
 Roscius only received this on days when he acted. The sum of 600,000 
 sesterces (£5,400 circa) in itself seems more likely than half the amount. 
 It is difficult to see why a stipend of about £2,700 should have attracted 
 so much attention. 
 
 If the second suggestion, which I threw out, were adopted, viz. that 
 for X minis we should read XX annis, some of the difficulties which have 
 been raised concerning the date of the speech would be affected. As is 
 well known, some critics place this at about 76 B.C., and others at 68 or 
 66 b. C. The question has recently been discussed by Zielinski {Philol 
 Neue Folge, xviii, p. 15, 1905) and Morgan {Harvard Studies, xii, p. 238, 
 1901). The chief evidence is to be found in § 33, where the decisio of 
 Roscius is said to have taken place temporibns eis cum iacerent pretia 
 praediorum, when propter rei p. calamitates omnium possessiones erant 
 incertae, and § ^J, where according to the MSS. this was abhinc annis XV. 
 It is possible to identify this financial crisis with the time of the Social 
 War 91-89 A. D., in which case the earlier date is possible, but no one 
 disputes that the reference to Sulla's proscriptions and his devastation of 
 Etruria in 81 is more natural. Morgan remarks that in Caec. 11 it is 
 said of Caecina that he ' Caesenniae fundum in agro Tarquiniensi vendidit 
 temporibns Mis difficillimis solutionis ', which all editors refer to the events 
 of 81. Now Flavius, as we are told in the speech (§ 32), was an inhabitant 
 of Tarquinii, and it is a fair inference that the fundus which he handed 
 over to Roscius was in the ager Tarquiniensis. If so, it is difficult to 
 resist the conclusion that Cicero is speaking of the same crisis in both 
 places. Most critics, therefore, who argue for the early date accept in 
 § 37 an emendation of Hotoman, viz. IV for XV. It is, however, a most 
 serious objection to this view that the language of Cicero implies a longer 
 period during which the proceedings had lasted. He calls the decisio of 
 Roscius vetus, and contrasts it with the repromissio recens of Fannius 
 (§ 39), and contrasts the time at which the two occurred as iam pridcm 
 and nunc (§ 38). As, however, the repromissio recens was already three 
 years old (§ 37), it seems very odd that he should speak in this way of 
 
4 2 APPENDIX 
 
 a transaction which, if the events are to be crowded into five years, can 
 only have occurred about a year previously. Zielinski, who accepts the 
 emendation of Hotoman, lays great stress upon a suggestion of Warneke, 
 who finds a reason for the action of Roscius in renouncing the profits of 
 his profession in the fact recorded by Macrobius (iii. 14. 13) that he was 
 made an eques by Sulla when dictator [Roscius etiamL. Sullae carissimus 
 fnit ct anulo aureo ab eodem dictators donatus est), and holds that after 
 this he considered it derogatory to his new dignity to act for money. 
 Zielinski develops this view by referring to Cicero's statement in § 23 
 decern his annis proximis, etc., arguing that Cicero, using round numbers, 
 might speak of the interval between 82 and 76 as 10 years, but could 
 not possibly reduce that between 82 and 68 to jo, which, of course, is 
 quite convincing. The suggestion of Warneke, though most attractive, 
 is not entirely cogent, and involves the difficulty that, unless we accept 
 the emendation of Hotoman, we must seek for some other year than 81 
 for the financial crisis. 
 
 A further argument for the later date is found in the fact that an eques, 
 C. Cluvius, is said to have acted as index in the case between Fannius and 
 Flavius (§ 42), and it is argued that an eques cannot have acted in this 
 capacity during the period between the legislation of Sulia and the lex 
 Aurelia passed in 70 B. c. I do not feel this argument convincing, since 
 it is a matter of dispute whether Sulla's law affected private suits as well 
 as indicia publica. The arguments urged in favour of the earlier date by 
 Landgraf, upon linguistic grounds, appear to me to be adequately met by 
 Morgan. There remains an objection to the later date, noticed by Roby, 
 that Cicero alludes to his adnlescentia, an expression which appears odd 
 in the mouth of a man of 40, although in later life, when looking back- 
 wards, he uses it of his action in B. C. 63 [Phil. ii. 118).
