91. _Aulus Gellius' Description of a Dimple._--The poet Gray, writing to
his friend Mr. West, asks him to guess where the following description
of a _dimple_ is found:
"Sigilla in mento inpressa Amoris digitulo
Vestigio demonstrant mollitudinem."
_Lett._ viii. sect. iii. vol. i. p. 261. Mason's
edition. London, 1807.
Mr. West replies in the following letter:
"Your fragment is Aulus Gellius; and both it and your Greek
delicious."
I have never met with it in Aulus Gellius, and should be glad to find
it.
