Apparatus criticus

  • Text after Gualtherus, following Gualtherus' indications of hederae and interpuncts ;
  • 3: Gualtherus 1624: VIX.M.XX; Gualtherus 1624[1625]: VIX.MV.XX; as Kaibel suggests, the MV in ligature printed by Gualtherus is presumably a rendering of a poorly legible AN, possibly in ligature.
