page 407 note 1 The references to Sir Henry Savile's work on pp. xxxviii and lxvii are in a confusion worse confounded by the misnomer ‘Sir George’ on pp. lxx and lxxi. The three volumes of Tacitus ‘made English by several hands’ and published in 1698 were not ‘under the patronage of “the Learned Sir Henry Savile,”’ Casaubon's host at Eton, who died in 1622. In the work of 1698 Savile's translation of the Histories and Agricola, published in 1591, is used only for the first book of the Histories.
page 408 note 1 Where, by the way, ‘Cherusci’ should be ‘Chauci.’ Other slips worthy of note are ‘Greer’ for ‘Greef,’ p. viii; ‘Turanius’ for ‘Turranius,’ p. 14 n.; quingentos for quingenos, p. 16 n.; Vindebona, p. 32 n.; ‘Marquhardt,’ p. 46; ‘shewed’ for ‘shewn,’ i. 51. 2 ; ‘practice’ for ‘practice,’ ii. 33. 1; ‘Vipsanius’ for ‘Vipstanus,’ ii. 51. 1 ; ‘Servius’ for ‘Servaeus,’ ii. 56. 5 ; ‘Antiochῖ;a’ for ‘-īa,’ p. 169 ; ‘brother’ for ‘son,’ iii. 18. 1 ; ‘Detrius’ for ‘Decrius,’ iii. 20. 3 ; ‘Corbulo’ for ‘Sulla,’ iii. 31. 6 ; Aelia for Seia, and Seia for Aelia, p. 259 ; ‘the eunuch Spado,’ iv. 8. 1 and 10. 2 (an odd mistake to make, and an odder to repeat); ‘Gaetae’ for ‘Getae,’ iv. 44. 1 ; ‘Cnaeus,’ iv. 75. 1. N. 3 on p. 134 is attached to the wrong ‘that.’ Why ‘tribunitian ’ (passim)? The printing of the German on p. 316 and of the Greek in several places is very slovenly.

page 409 note 1 There is a muddle in the note on p. 142 : ‘a hundredth per cent. (i.e. 1 percent.).’ By a similar confusion the same expression is translated ‘100,000,000 sesterces’ in vi. 17. 4 and ‘1,000,000 sesterces’ in vi. 45. 2.

page 410 note 2 Tacitus knows nothing of the story in Suetonius, according to which this man tied up his veins again ; and even in that story it was of a disease that he died at last.
