"Patiss."). See J. J. Seal., ' Opusc.' (1612), pt. ii. 240 ; Epist, (1627), 86 (Ep. iii.).

P. 21, n. 9 (7, n. g, ed. 6), " Olim literse ob homines," &c. See Seal, 'Confut. Fab. Burd.,' in ' Opusc.' (1612), pt. ii. 52 (420).

P. 21, n. 11 (7, n. i), "Inter tot mille volumina," &c. See ' Confut. Fab. Burd./ 52 (420). Burton by stopping short in his quotation has given the effect of a more sweeping statement to Scaliger's remark, which ends " immo potius non peior se ipso euadat, si cum aliqua uoluptate perlegerit."

P. 21, n. 12 (7, n. k), the quotation from Palingenius is from bk. vi. 11. 38, 39, of the 1 Zodiacus Vitse.'

P. 21, n. 15 (7, n. m), "Sterile oportet esse ingenium quod in hoc scripturient[i]um pruritu." <fec. A combination of parts of two different sentences from the ' Confutatio ' (p. 53).

P. 23, 1. 7 (8, 1. 22), "sumpsi, non surripui." Cf. Cic., 'Brut.,' 19, 76, "qui a N^vio vel sumpsisti multa, si fateris, vel, si negas, surripuisti."

P. 23, 1. 13 (8, 1. 27), " I do concoquere quod hausi." See Sen., Ep. 84, 6, and cf. Macr., 'Saturn.,' i. prsef. 5-9, where much of this letter of Seneca may be found " lifted." John of Salisbury (' Policrat.,' vii. 10) draws from these sources with the introductory remark, "Vt enim in libro Saturnaliorum, & in epistolis Senecse ad Lucilium legitur."

P. 23, 1. 15 (8, 1. 29), "that of Wecker e Ter." See Eunuchus, prol. 41.

P. 24, 1. 32 (9, 1. 25), " Primus vestrum non sum, nee imus." See Lipsius, 'Ep. Cent, ad Germ, et Gall.,' Ixvii. : " & cum Solone * Neque me esse primum vestrum, aut imum existimo. 5 "

P. 25, n. 2 (9, n. e), "Ut venatores feram e vestigio impresso, virum scriptiuncula. Lips." See 'Ep.,' cent. i. misc. 45, " Veterani vena- tores cervum ex impresso vestigio dinoverint : ego ex scriptiuncula virum."

P. 25, 1. 11 (9, 1. 36), " ut palata sic judicia." See Lips., 'Ep.,' cent. ii. misc. 27 (31 in first edition of this century), " Ut palati inclina- tiones qusedam sunt, quas haud mutes : sic judicii."

P. 26, 1. 6 (10, 1. 9), " Facilia sic putant," &c. Exact reference given in a previous paper.

P. 26, n. 7 (10, n. 1), "Fieri non potest ut quod quisque cogitat, dicat unus. Muretus." See Oratio xxiii. (vol. i. 270 in Frotscher's edition of ' Op. Omn.,' 1834).

P. 27, 1. 3 (10, 1. 34), "Plinius Secundus to Trajan." " Trajan " is a slip of Burton or his printer for Triarius.

P. 27, 1. 19 (10, last line), " 'Twas Seneca's

fate " P. 28, 1. 5 (11, 1. 14), "accumu-

lavit," &c. A. R. S.'s note (p. 28, n. 2) is "All

this is in Lipsius' edition of Seneca, Ant- verpise, 1652." I add the following details :

emsque scriptis" at beginning of Lipsius's 'Seneca' (1652). Lipsius's words "quod me dat in stuporem " are part of his develop- ment of Quintilian's " plurirnum studii." For "the best of Greek and Latin writers in Plutarch's opinion " (27, 1. 21 ; 11, 1. 1), see the extracts from Petrarch's epist. quoted on pp. xxvii, xxviii, of Lipsius's 'Seneca.' On the statements which Petrarch ascribes to Plutarch Lipsius comments, "Unde hsec Petrarcha, nescio." In 27, n. 12 (11, n. u) t Burton refers to Lib. 10 of Fabius [QuintiiianJ. The exact reference is x. i. 129. Quintilian's criticism of Seneca is in 128-31. "Sermo illaboratus " (27, 1. 27 : 11, 1. 7) is from Seneca himself (Ep. 75, 1). The passage (27, 11. 28, 29; 11, 11. 8, 9) quoted very loosely from- A. Gellius (Agellius Lipsius and Burton call him) is from xii. 2, 1. " In partibus spinas & fastidia habet" (27, 30; 11, 9), to which Burton gives the reference " Introduct. ad Sen.," comes from p. iv (Introductio Lectoris) of Lipsius's ' Seneca,' where the statement is made, not of Seneca's works generally, but of the 'De Ira' and 'De BeneficnV From "alise" to "occupantur" (28, 2; 11, 11) is from the same page, while " intricatus," &c., and "parum," &c., are from p. ii. It is characteristic of Shilleto's editing that the error in Burton, " sine copia rerum hoc fecit "

(Lipsius wrote "siue copia siue Stoico-

quodam more "), is passed over without

comment.

P. 28, 1. 31 ; 11, 33, "to divulge secreta Minervce " : Ov., 'Met.,' ii. 749, part of fuller quotation given on p. 421, n. 1 ; 166, last note, where A. K. S. supplies the number of the line.

P. 30, n. 14 ; 12, n. m, the full reference to Palingenius is ' Zod. Vit.,' vi. 35.

P. 31, 1. 18 ; 13, 11, "per ardua glebosa

camporum " is from Apuleius, ' Met.,' i. 2.

P. 31, n. 5 ; 13, n. *, " Hie enim, quod Seneca de Ponto, bos herbam, Ciconia larisam, canis leporem, yirgo flprem legat." (So ed. 6.. The quotation is not given in ed. 4.) A. K. S. gives the reference Sen., Ep. 108, 29 ("in eodem prato bos herbam quserit, canis leporem, ciconia lacertam "). Now to each of the six "manipuli" of his 'Mythologia Christiana' (1619) Johann Valentin Andrea (Andreas) prefixes a quotation from Seneca, that before the first being cited thus : "In eodem prato homo florem quserit, bos herbam, canis leporem, ciconia lacertum." Burton refers to-
