ura_. Dav. and Ern. made the adj. neuter, and
understanding _sunt_ interpreted "these arguments I am going to urge are
grand, viz. _quanto art_. etc."

Sec.87. _Scilicet_: Germ. "naturlich." _Fabricata sit_: cf. 30, 119, 121 and
N.D. I. 19. _Ne modo_: for _modo ne_, a noticeable use. _Physicis_:
probably neut. _Contra sensus_: he wrote both for and against [Greek:
synetheia]; cf. R. and P. 360 and 368. _Carneadem_: Plut. _Sto. Rep_. 1036
B relates that Carneades in reading the arguments of Chrysippus against the
senses, quoted the address of Andromache to Hector: [Greek: daimonie
phthisei se to son menos]. From Diog. IV. 62 we learn that he thus parodied
the line qu. in n. on 75, [Greek: ei me gar en Chrysippos ouk an en ego].

Sec.88. _Diligentissime_: in 48--53. _Dicebas_: in 52 _imbecillius
adsentiuntur_. _Siccorum_: cf. Cic. _Contra Rullum_ I. 1 _consilia
siccorum_. _Madere_ is common with the meaning "to be drunk," as in Plaut.
_Mostellaria_ I. 4, 6. _Non diceret_: Orelli was induced by Goer. to omit
the verb, with one MS., cf. 15 and I. 13. The omission of a verb in the
subjunctive is, Madv. says on _D.F._ I. 9, impossible; for other ellipses
of the verb see _M.D.F._ V. 63. _Alcmaeo autem_: i.e. Ennius' own Alcmaeon;
cf. 52. _Somnia reri_: the best MSS. have _somniare_. Goer. reads _somnia_,
supplying _non fuisse vera_. I have already remarked on his extraordinary
power of _supplying_. Halm conj. _somnia reprobare_, forgetting that the
verb _reprobare_ belongs to third century Latinity, also _sua visa putare_,
which Bait. adopts. Thinking this too large a departure from the MSS., I
read _reri_, which verb occurred in I. 26, 39. Possibly _putare_, a little
farther on, has got misplaced. _Non id agitur_: these difficulties supply
Sextus with one of his [Greek: tropoi], i.e. [Greek: ho peri tas
peristaseis]; cf. _P.H._ I. 100, also for the treatment of dreams, _ib._ I.
104. _Si modo_, etc.: "if only he dreamed it," i.e. "merely because he
dreamed it." _Aeque ac vigilanti_: = _aeque ac si vigilaret_. Dav. missing
the sense, and pointing out that _when awake_ Ennius did not assent to his
sensations at all, conj. _vigilantis_. Two participles used in very
different ways not unfrequently occur together, see Madv. _Em. Liv._ p.
442. _Ita credit_: MSS. have _illa_, which Dav. altered. Halm would prefer
_credidit_. _Itera dum_, etc.: from the _Iliona_ of Pacuvius; a favourite
quotation with Cic.; see _Ad Att._ XIV. 14, and _
