Still still I must away the roads are paved the posts are short the days are long 'tis no more than noon I shall be at Fontainebleau before the king Was he going there? not that I know Non enim excursus hic ejus, sed opus ipsum est. Plin. Lib. V. Epist. 6. Si quid urbaniuscule lusum a nobis, per Musas et Charitas et omnium poetarum Numina, Oro te, ne me male capias. A Dedication to a Great Man.

All these statements, moreover, date from a century or more after Gate's death. Cicero, De Off. ii. 25, 89; Colum. vi. praef. 4, comp. ii. 16, 2; Plin.

"Fuit et Ninus, imposita Tigri, ad solis occasum spectans, quondam clarissima." PLIN. H. N. vi. 13.

There is sufficient reason to believe that Ur, the first capital, was a great maritime emporium; and if so, it can scarcely be doubted that to commerce and trade, at the least in part, the early development of Chaldaean greatness was owing. "Ager totius Asiae fertilissimus." PLIN. H. N. vi. 26.

Regia utilitas est==regibus utile est. XLV. Pigrum. Cf. A. 10: pigrum et grave. The Northern or Frozen Ocean, of which T. seems to have heard, though some refer it to the northern part of the Baltic. See Ky. in loc. Hinc. For this reason, viz. quod extremus, etc. In ortus. Plin. Sonum aspici. The aurora borealis, some suppose. Persuasio adjicit.

Military Tribunes with Consular Powers All these insignia probably belonged on their first emergence only to the nobility proper, i. e. to the agnate descendants of curule magistrates; although, after the manner of such decorations, all of them in course of time were extended to a wider circle. II. III. Civic Equality Plin. H. N. xxi. 3, 6. II. III. Praetorship

He nebber t'ink any good look, now-a-day, in a ole wench." "Pliny is half blind. But that is the way with most husbands, Smash; they become blind to the charms of their spouses, after a few years of matrimony."

At that very time on trial, not merely already at that time. Cf. Hand's Tursel. 3, 113. Nostra, sc. of the Senate, of which T. was a member, though abroad at the time. Helvidius was arrested in the senate house, cf. Plin. Ep. 9, 13. This was Helvidius the son, who was put to death by Dom. Visus. Al. divisus. Visus==species, adspectus, Wr. Perfudit. Zeugma. Of Rusticus and Senecio, see 2, note.

Talk wid him he want to come in. What you t'ink?" "Nebber open gate, ole Plin, till mistress tell you. You stay here dere; lean ag'in gate wid all you might; dere; now I go call Miss Maud. She all alone in librarim, and will know what best. Mind you lean ag'in gate well, ole Plin."

The former version accords better with the language of the whole passage. Wr. questions the authority for such a use of referre. But it may be found, e.g. Plin.
