imilar subjects. _Ipsa capita_: [Greek: auta ta kephalaia].
_Interrogationis_: the _sorites_ was always in the form of a series of
questions, cf. _De Div._ II. 11 (where Cic. says the Greek word was already
naturalised, so that his proposed trans. _acervalis_ is unnecessary),
_Hortens._ fragm. 47, and n. on 92. _Hoc vocant_: i.e. _hoc genus_, cf.
_D.F._ III. 70 _ex eo genere, quae prosunt_. _Vitiosum_: cf. _D.F._ IV. 50
_ille sorites, quo nihil putatis_ (Stoici) _vitiosius_. Most edd. read
_hos_, which indeed in 136 is a necessary em. for MSS. _hoc_. _Tale visum_:
i.e. _falsum_. _Dormienti_: sc. [Greek: tini]. _Ut probabile sit_, etc.:
cf. 47, 48 and notes. _Primum quidque_: not _quodque_ as Klotz; cf.
_M.D.F._ II. 105, to whose exx. add _De Div._ II. 112, and an instance of
_proximus quisque_ in _De Off._ II. 75. _Vitium_: cf. _vitiosum_ above.

Sec.50. _Omnia deum posse_: this was a principle generally admitted among
Stoics at least, see _De Div._ II. 86. For the line of argument here cf.
_De Div._ II. 106 _fac dare deos, quod absurdum est_. _Eadem_: this does
not mean that the two sensations are merged into one, but merely that when
one of them is present, it cannot be distinguished from the other; see n.
on 40. _Similes_: after this _sunt_ was added by Madv. _In suo genere
essent_: substitute _esse viderentur_ for _essent_, and you get the real
view of the Academic, who would allow that _things in their essence_ are
divisible into sharply-defined _genera_, but would deny that the
_sensations_ which proceed from or are caused by the _things_, are so
divisible.

Sec.51. _Una depulsio_: cf. 128 (_omnium rerum una est definitio
comprehendendi_), _De Div._ II. 136 (_omnium somniorum una ratio est_). _In
quiete_: = _in somno_, a rather poetical usage. _Narravit_: Goer., Orelli,
Klotz alter into _narrat_, most wantonly. _Visus Homerus_, etc.: this
famous dream of Ennius, recorded in his _Annals_, is referred to by Lucr.
I. 124, Cic. _De Rep._ VI. 10 (_Somn. Scip._ c. 1), Hor. _Epist._ II. 1,
50. _Simul ut_: rare in Cic., see Madv. _D.F._ II. 33, who, however, unduly
restricts the usage. In three out of the five passages where he allows it
to stand, the _ut_ precedes a vowel; Cic. therefore used it to avoid
writing _ac_ before a vowel, so that in _D.F._ II. 33 _ut_ should probably
be written (with Manut. and others) for _et_ which Madv. ejects.

Sec.52. _Eorumque_: MSS. om. _que_. Dav. wrote _ac_ before _eorum_, this
howev
