Plautus, Pseudolus 189: Grain-Mountains and Cattle-Fodder
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 February 2009
Extract
In the most recent edition of this play (Bristol Classical Press, 1987) M. M. Willcock places an obelus before montes with the comment ‘monies and acerui get in each other's way’. But in view of its metaphorical use elsewhere in Plautus (e.g. Aul. 701, Mil. 1065, Mos. 352), prima facie suspicion does not fall on montes.
