1 The alternative that avidum might be pronounced audum (cf. av(i)di in Bacch. 276) may safely be disregarded; the assonance aud- aud- would be too narrow a basis to support the pun. See, however, R. S. Radford (Trans. and Proceed. Amer. Philol. Assoc. xxxvii (1906) p. xxix), who quotes our passage and Bacch. 276 as proving that avi in medial syllables could sound like au. Radford has thus observed the pun, but he does not seem to have interpreted the line accordingly.
