In a number of passages apparent breaks in the rhythm are due 

 not to the condition of the text but to the punctuation of it. A 

 few cases of this sort may be cited here.^ 

 I. 46. 22 ut quondam Domitius Corbulo dicitur caesus in con- 

 luvione ilia Neroniani saeculi provinciarum fidus defensor 

 et cautus Gardthausen sets a comma after saeculi. 

 96. 19—20 qui graviore motu animi percitus ad corripiendos 

 aliquos septem a Barbatione petierat naves G. sets a 

 comma after aliquos. 

 118. 13 utque fobeliscus) radium imitetur gracilescens paulatim 

 sjiecie quadrata in verticem productus angustum G. 

 punctuates after gracilescens. 

 190. 24 staliant incurvi longe alia quam quae gestu praeferebant 

 et verbis altis mentibus perpensantes. G. sets a comma 

 after altis. 

 210. 28-211. 1 petitusque ballistarum ictibus certis et sagittarum,

' One instance (I. 88. 1) has been already discussed p. 167 n. 2. No 

 note is here taken of mere typographical errors such as II. 139. 16 

 barbarictis prosilrt.it, globus and I. 234. 3 mainis, praedatorias, nor of 'gram- 

 matical ' punctuation where there is no pause {is, qui) and the like.
