FOOTNOTES:
[1] _Covinus Cimbricus, sicut hodie utuntur._
[2] In one of the carved monuments Venus stands in an apartment of
a building, seeming to be combing her hair; perhaps from a bath.
However, at Rome was a statue of Venus holding a comb, not an
improper utensil for the goddess of beauty, not a little of which
consists in the hair. Thus says Claudian,
_Thessalico roseos nectebat pectine crines._
