They have the name of Greater or Less Frisii, according to the measure of their strength. For this sense of ex see note 7. For the case of majoribus minoribusque see Z. 421, and H. 387, 1.

Pecunia superabat? at egebas." These four clauses are as concise as can be; but then come the two following sentences uttered in members: "Incurristi amens in columnas: in alienos insanus insanîsti."
