This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ... 2, 54: t vos, 0 lauri, carpam, el te proximo myrte. Wernsdorf, however, observes vicina and firoxima have not the same meaning.

Dicte, now Sethia, was a mountain in the eastern part of Crete, in a cave of which Jupiter was concealed from Saturn. 97 sq. Reverential silence is often mentioned as nature's tribute on the approach of a deity, and the emperor is here said to receive similar homage.
