THE AUTHOR DIGRESSES A LITTLE, AND TAKES UP A STITCH WHICH WAS DROPPED
IN THE EARLIER PART OF THIS OPUS.—NOTICES CONCERNING LITERARY AND
DRAMATIC HISTORY, BUT PERTINENT TO THIS PART OF OUR SUBJECT.
_Jam paululum digressus a spectantibus,
Doctis loquar, qui non adeo spectare quam
Audire gestiunt, logosque ponderant,
Examinant, dijudicantque pro suo
Candore vel livore; non latum tamen
Culmum (quod aiunt) dum loquar sapientibus
Loco movebor._
MACROPEDIUS.
