1 (Leipzig, 19862). Other cited editions: A.C. Clark (Oxford, 19182); G. Magnaldi (Alessandria, 2008); G. Manuwald (Berlin and New York, 2007); J.T. Ramsey (Cambridge, 2003); D.R. Shackleton Bailey (Chapel Hill, 1986, repr. with slight revisions by J.T. Ramsey and G. Manuwald [Cambridge, MA and London, 2009]).

2 Is the l in the transmitted clarus perhaps an example of reinsertion in the wrong place by a ‘corrector’?

3 Duly registered in Fedeli's apparatus criticus. Shackleton Bailey and Ramsey, too, resort to cruces. Magnaldi ingeniously suggests that cum uinus conceals comminus, which she would insert prior to consulem (Faernus's conjecture, which she adopts, for consul), with a comma following esset. But the adverb is unnecessary, and the interruption of the phrase tamquam si esset consul implausible.

4 Cf. OLD s.v. unus 2b.

5 It is rejected, but without argument, by Fedeli and Magnaldi, who print the transmitted text.
