NOTANDA.

foot of their respective pages.
Page 1, line 25
Nulla est tam facilis res, quin difficilis siet, Quam invitus
facias—_Terent. Heaut._ iv, vi. 1
“There is nothing so easy, as not to become difficult should you do it
unwillingly.”
P. 1, l. 35. Nam illud verum est M. Catonis oraculum, nihil agendo,
homines male agere discunt. “For that is a true oracle of M. Cato—by doing
nothing, men learn to do ill.”—_Columel._ lib. xi, cap. 1.
P. 5, last line. Ει γουν αηδων ημην, εποιουν τα της αηδονος, ει κυκνος, τα
του κυκνου, νυν δε λογικος ειμι, ὑμνειν με δει τον θεον. “Were I a
nightingale, I would perform the office of a nightingale, or a swan, that
of a swan; but since I am a rational creature, it is right that I should
celebrate the praises of God.”—_Epictet. Dissert._ lib. i, cap. 16.
P. 7, l. 53. Quidam vivere tunc incipiunt, cum desinendum est. Si hoc
judicas mirum, adjiciam quod magis admireris, quidam ante vivere
defecerunt, quam inciperent. “Some then begin to live when they are near
the close of life. If you think this wonderful, I will add what you will
wonder at still more, some have ceased to live before they have begun to
live.”—_Senec. Epist._ xxiii.
P. 9, l. 18. Cicero represents the saying— _Amicorum omnia communia_
(Friends have all things in common)—to be a Greek proverb—_De Offic._ lib.
i, cap. xvi.
