1. Atthe end of this $ Br. has mixed up two different stories. In the previous $ the name of the ‘* Duc de Galathas ” is given as Craterei. Solinus has Cintardi ; the Tasoro, correctly for a wonder, Cintarelo.

2. For deus in $ 4 read dens. (See Sundby, p. 130; ed. Renier). — In $ $ Br. séys : “ la femele, devant. xi. anz, et li masles, devant. xv., ne sevent pas que luxure soit, ” Solinus has : “‘ venerem ante annos décem feminae, ante quinque mares nesciunt ”.

3. In $ 2 Br. says : ‘* nulle beste qui atouche a l'ombre de hyene ne se puët movoir dou leu ”. Solinus has ‘ hyaena quodcumque animal ter lustraverit movere se non potest ”.

4. “* Une lame de amors ”, read laine, Solinus has : “ villus amatorius ”. Tesoro, corectly, lana.

BRUNETTO LATINO'S OBLIGATIONS TO SOLINUS 77 unable to echo the words put into his mouth by Dante (/nf. XV, 119):

Siati raccomandato il mio Tesoro.

We have in the course of our article drawn attention to a good many passages of the Tresor where the text requires emendation. In not a few of these the right reading may be fixed, with tolerable certainty, as we have been able to show, by a reference to the corresponding passage in Solinus.
