APPENDIX OF AUTHORS AND WORKS<br />

ascribed to him by Scaliger <strong>and</strong> others {Anth. Lat. 396—463). There is nowadays much<br />

uncertainty, indeed scepticism, about the attribution of most of these pieces. So with<br />

Petronius. Five poems are transmitted under his name or cited as his by Fulgentius<br />

{Anth. Lat. 466,476, 650-1, 690), fourteen are ascribed to him by Scaliger {Anth. Lat.<br />

464—5, 467—75, 477—9), ten by Binet {Anth. Lat. 218, 691—9), who claims to take the<br />

ascription from a manuscript, <strong>and</strong> eight by Baehrens {Anth.. Lat. 700—7). Great doubt<br />

attaches to the last two groups, but there are indications that some at least of the other<br />

pieces may be Petronian.<br />

PRIAPEA<br />

Book of about eighty short poems, in hendecasyllables, elegiacs, <strong>and</strong> choliambs,<br />

addressed to or concerned with Priapus: has sustained some minor damage, but may<br />

otherwise be virtually complete. Commonly regarded as a collection of pieces by<br />

divers authors, assembled in or soon after Augustus' times, it is rather the work of a<br />

single poet, very possibly later than Martial.<br />
