in this one needs only to correct conpissent to coe- 

 pissent with Gelenius. On coepi and coeptus sum see 

 Novak, p. 8o.

CLinctantes.

(8) 82. 13 munera curabant Valesius inserted munera: substitute, 



perhaps, munus.

arescentes is perhaps defensible on the assumption that 

 contra is a preposition.
