Excerpt from The Bacchae of Euripides: With Critical and Explanatory Notes and With Numerous Illustrations From Works of Ancient Art During the same Visit, I endeavoured in vain to find the original of the alleged 'florentine gem' en graved on p. 122 and described on page cl. By the kind assistance, however, of Professor L. A. Milani, the accomplished and obliging keeper of the Etruscan and Classical antiquities, which have been admirably rearranged in their new home in the Via a'ella Colonna, I have been enabled to give on page 258 some ac count of the probable origin of the engraving to which I refer. I may add that the same authority proposes shortly to publish a hitherto unnoticed illustration of the passage of this play where Dionysus is associated with the goddess of Peace (416 which will be looked forward to with interest by scholars and ar chaeologists. I only regret that I feel myself pre cluded for the present from giving any account of the work of art to which I allude, or from including a copy of it among the illustrations to this volume.
