[416] On Georg. i. 109. These words are quoted by Emmenessius, the

editor of the Variorum edition of Virgil, but in the edition of

Servius, Venetiis, 1562, fol., they are not to be found. The Commentary

of Servius may at present be no longer indispensable for explaining

Virgil; but it deserves to be printed once more as completely and

accurately as possible. It contains much useful information, as well as

many fragments of works now lost; and on this account cannot well be

entirely dispensed with.
