Tefrus Jovius is the deity, and Tefro τέμαχος IV 2. τέμενος VIIa. 46. This suggests a like play of words in VIb. 9, where the god Fiso (Fidius) is called Fisouio (qu. Fiducius), and his Mefa spefa are entitled Fisouina, (qu. Fiduciarius). See also on Tursitu to VIIa. 51. 37. Staflarem: see on Ia. 31. 38. Westiciar, gen. Supply Tl, as IIa. 41. In fact scalçeto, the allotted portion, might be added, as VIb. 16. 38, 39. The intimate relation of Persome pue, as statim quòd, protenus ac, is clear.-B. Persnis fust. The composition is regarded by A.K. to prove that Persni-himu Persnis fust are passive deponents; Persnis is assumed Persnitos. -These tenses are also comparable to a Greek verb in -μ. Indeed, when A.K. treat -ni of Persni as added to the pre = sent tense (like (evy-vv-μ), they suggest this theory, and perhaps ought not to find -ni in the past partic. 40. The moment I believed Ententu to mean incendito, I concluded that Pelsatu was comburito and afterwards found it to explain Vb. 11, as well as IIa. 43. I regard this as full verification. That Pelsano IIa. 6, etc., is so widely different, should no more surprise us than the difference of Vello and Vellus, Pecto and Pectus, Uro and Urina, Cremo and Cremorem. 40. 8. Uaso, acc. of conson. decl. may be in apposition to Porse, (as, Urbem quam statuo, vestra est): or if Subra may govern accus. it is governed by Subra, which is its logical relation.-As VIa. 19 the same fire-vessels were to be used on three occasions, so here the festive meat is to be roasted over the same vessel (or vessels, if we make Uasof of it) as.

Combifianciust. We seem to need the 2nd pers. -çius. were the expiatory meats. But dat. pl. Uasus, acc. pl. Uasof, would be irregular. 41. A.K. say of Spahatu, "mit Dehnung für Spâtu." I far more easily believe in a contraction, and that the true root is Spahe or even Spaf; the verb being derived from the noun Spafo. -B. Ander-uomu, has no strict parallel. It may have an adverbial sense, equivalent to Interdum, if Uomu be an ablative. But we twice have the imperat. An-oui-himu VIb. 49; and the sounds O, U admit so easy transposition, that, (Owihimu to Owimu being a recognised step,) one more step to Womu seems a very slight liberty. Guided then by 49, I render Uomu Owimu, jacito: and interpret interjicito, "toss it from time to virgam time."-y. Sersitu (Zersitu) vwToάTW, reverse it; as ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα αιόλλει οι Odyss. 20, 27. 42. Purdito fust. Too abrupt. Cmp. VIIa. 46, which has Enom; and Ib. 38, which has Eno esono, prefixed. 43-46, see notes on Ib. 10-20. The whole of this has been translated by A.K. with remarkable success. I have only added half a dozen words. 48. Eriront, implies a dative Erir, illis. On this ground (I suppose) A.K. so stiffly resist Erus, illis; or rather, never once seem to suspect in it such a sense. Yet neither do they offer any interpn. whatever of Erus, nor is Erir nor Eris anywhere found separate. 49.

One may fancy t lost in Heries, but this is impossible with Ferar. The phenomenon at first inclined me to take Angla as nom. and interpret Combifiatu, convenito, "meet," rather than conspicito, look. I now believe that the ambiguity of the imperative, which may be either 2nd or 3rd p. confused the mind of the engraver, both here and in some other places.-B. It would be satisfactory, if we could obtain a clear etymology of Combifia. I suspect that its root Pifia,-(for B is only euphonic, as the Greeks say tom batéra for τὸν πατέρα,)= Picia Spicia. When σKET turns into Spec, one might almost expect some other language to have Spep. What else is Engl. Peep but Spy Notoriously Spec Späh-en of Germ. Spy. Also Gaelic has dropt s from the root Spec; since Beachd is Speculate, Watch, Spy. If then Pifia really means "to look out," it is probably in form and fact Peep.-7. That Rejicito in two different senses exactly suits each time, implies that we have alighted on the right word. 50. Erihont here Eront of VIb. 24. = = = = our Poi perca arsmatia habiest, Qui virgam militarem habebit, A.K. treat h as a proper part of hont dem; and refer to Gothic Hun, where I cannot follow them. But I see weight in Hontac, inde, as implying that his lost in Erafont, Eront, etc.-B. Aso, evidently some vessel. A.K. suggest Arula, as diminutive of Asa, ara. Yet Eso of the earlier dialect, IV. 15, IIa. 40, is likely to be the same vessel. A basket or coffer was essential to carry frankincense and sacrificial gear. Cmp. the Mandraclo VIb. 4. 51. Seso, with Sueso, VIIb. 1, lead me now to translate final -so by -met. In etm. -so may -pte or -pse of popular Latin; as suâpte culpâ, reapse; if -so conceals isso, ipso. (See esso VIa. 2.) By analogy of Tefe, tibi, we should have Sefe, sibi; yet if Siom were acc. (as Tiom is acc.), perhaps Sefe admitted contraction. Sibimet is the sense we need. 52. Amboltu; in sound is like Ambulato; but that sense does not here suit. We want oculos reflectito; to which An, re, agrees. In Breton and Welsh, Gwel means sight; Welsh, Wela, look; Possibly Anboltu re-spicito.-B. For = {e(re) ecsecrato. pue mers est, fetu uru eturs(i) tahamu.

The Senator was not only enrolled, conscriptus; he was specially summoned to the Senate at every meeting. This may serve, till we get something more certain.-B. The contrast of Nerf, arsmom, Principes, exercitum; here changes to Nerf, jovief. May we not infer that Jovief: juvenes ; the juniores, liable to serve in the army -y. If so, Hostatuf naturally means = Hastatos: :- -the men of military age, whether actually armed for the militia, or Anhostatuf, not so armed. 60. A.K. interpret from Tursitu to the end, as a series of ablatives; then the verb equivalent to Perditote is omitted! I confess I had thought that (as in Latin) the verb might take the number of the nearest nomin. But the plural Fututo in 61 primâ facie discountenances us in taking Tursitu as a verb.-Of the ablatives, four seem pretty clear; if we may trust the Sanscrit lore by which A.K. identify Sauitu with ver. When they refer Ninctu to ningo, I wonder that they do not appeal to vépos for Nepitu.-In the four first ablatives, I look rather to words of moral sense. In the two last I have in mind Soph. Ed.
