CHAPTER VII.
[1] Como.
[2] Juv. i. 49.
[3] The correspondence dates from 97 to 108 A.D.
[4] x. 96 (97).
[5] This refers to the malicious charges of acts of cruelty performed at the common meal, often brought against the early believers.
[6] Probably deaconesses.
[7] Ep. II. 13, 4.
[8] Ep. II. 11, 19.
[9] Ep. V. 5, 1.
[10] Ep. VII, 31, 5.
[11] Ep. VI. 15.
[12] An exhaustive list of these minor authors will be found in Teuffel, -- 336-339.
[13] iii. 3l9.
[14] It runs: Cereri sacrum D. Junius Juvenalis tribunus cohortis I.
Delmatarum, II. vir quinquennalis flamen Divi Vespasiani vovit dedicavitque sua pecunia. See Teuffel, -- 326.
[15] Perhaps vii. 90.
[16] xv. 45.
[17] So, at least, says the author of the statement. But the cohort of which Juvenal was prefect was in Britain A.D. 124 under Hadrian. See Teuffel.
[18] _Nuper_ console Junco, xv. 27. Others read _Junio_.
[19] Coleridge's definition of poetry as "the best words in their right places" may be fitly alluded to here. It occurs in the _Table Talk_.
[20] iv. 128; viii. 6, 7; xv. 75.
[21] Except in his poorer satires; certainly never in i. ii. iii. iv. vi.
vii. viii.
[22] The close intimacy between Juvenal and Martial is no great testimony in favour of Juvenal. See Mart. vii. 24.
[23] iii. 61; cf. vi. 186, _sqq._
[24] c.u.m perimit saevos cla.s.sis numerosa tyrannos, vii. 151.
[25] Sat. iv.
[26] Ib. vii. 1-24.
[27] Experiar quid concedatur in illos Quorum Flaminia tegitur cinis atque Latina, i. 170.
[28] x. 66.
[29] viii. 147.
[30] x. 147, _sqq._
[31] iii. 61, 87, 7.
[32] vii. pa.s.s.
[33] i. 32, 158.
[34] vii. 16.
[35] iii. 77-104.
[36] vi. 562, et al.
[37] See especially iii. 30-44.
[38] References, allusions, and imitations of Virgil occur in most of the Satires. For reminiscences of Lucan, cf. Juv. i. 18, 89; xii. 97, 8; with Phars. i. 457; viii. 543; ix. 781, 2.
[39] His praenomen is uncertain; some think it was _Publius_.
[40] N. H. vii. 17.
[41] Hist. i. 1.
[42] Agr. 45.
[43] A. iv. 20.
[44] A. xiv. 12.
[45] De Or. 2.
[46] Ep. vii. 20, 4.
[47] Ep. ii. 1, 6.
[48] Ch. 29 especially, seems an echo of Quintilian.
