108 THE CORPUS, EPINAL, ERFURT AND LEYDEN GLOSSARIES<br />

pulcherrimus Astur, Astur equo fidens et versicoloribus armis), though it<br />

might be a Festiis gloss of AboHta.<br />

(A 892) Avus :<br />

aeldrafaeder. Since it st<strong>and</strong>s between two Herm. items,;<br />

<strong>the</strong> source is probably Herm. 28, 36 Udnwos: avus.<br />

(A 917) Avena: atae. No safe clue. The preceding item Aviaria<br />

identical with Servius' scholium on Virgil Geo. 2, 430 ;<br />

so probably corneal<br />

from Abstrusa <strong>and</strong> not from <strong>the</strong> Virgil 'glossae collectae' common to Erf. 2,<br />

AfF. <strong>and</strong> Corp. Our item is (to judge from its position) identical with <strong>the</strong><br />

last item of <strong>the</strong> A-chapter in EE, Avena : agrestis harundo (cf. above,<br />

Part I), which in Erf. 2, AiF. shews a fuller form (Avena: herba messibus<br />

noxia vel harundo agrestis), suggestive of a scholium on Virg. Geo. 1, 77<br />

urit enim lini campum seges,<br />

urit avenae.<br />

(A 948) Auspicantur : haelsadon. Probably from Orosius (Hist. 2, 17, 6)<br />

caedem omnium passim futuram occiso Alcibiade auspicantur. The item<br />

Auctionabatur (A 946) is an Orosius item.<br />

(A 951 <strong>and</strong> 954) Auster: sudwind, Usurae: brucende. If <strong>the</strong>se two<br />

come from Orosius, <strong>the</strong> explanation of A 953 (Augur :<br />

on p. 89, must be withdrawn. Orosius uses <strong>the</strong> word often.<br />

Battutum :<br />

B<br />

haelsere) given above,<br />

gibeataen (Ep. 6 A 31 ; C. G. L. v 347, 37 ; Corp. B 17).<br />

Cf. <strong>the</strong> EE i item Battutus : percussus.<br />

Vaccinia : begir (Ep. 6 A 36 ; C. G. L. v 347, 47 ; Corp. B 19). See<br />

below,<br />

on Blattis.<br />

Blitum : clatae (Ep. 6 C 1 ; C. G. L. v 347, 45 ; Corp. B 142). Possibly<br />

a Festus gloss of Abolita.<br />

Blattis : bitulum (Ep. 6 C 1 ; C. G. L. v 347, 46 ; Corp. B 143). Since<br />

<strong>the</strong> case agrees with Virgil (Geo. 4, 343 lucifugis congesta cubilia blattis)<br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> case of Vaccinia (see above) with Virgil (Eel. 2, 18 alba ligustra<br />

cadunt, vaccinia nigra leguntur), it is possible that <strong>the</strong> trio, Vaccinia, Bli-<br />

tum, Blattis make an Abstr.-Abol. group.<br />

Branchiae : cian (Ep. 6 C 22 ; C. G. L. v 348, 13 ; Corp. B 189). A Bible<br />

gloss, from Tob. 6, 4 apprehende branchiam ejus (piscis)<br />

te. Cf. Leid. § 20, 3.<br />

et trahe eum ad<br />

Bubalus: uusend (Ep. 6 C 26 ; C. G. L. v 348, 18; Corp. B 213). A'<br />

Bible gloss, from Amos 6, 13 (numquid arari potest in bubalis?).<br />

And in Corpus alone :<br />

(B 23) Barritus: genung. Goetz supposes a fusion of Barritus..., Bata-<br />

tio (or Bataclatio) : genung. (The next item is <strong>the</strong> Herm. gloss Batat :<br />

geonath.) But it may be a re-casting of <strong>the</strong> Festus (?) gloss of Abolita (24,<br />

29) Barritus ; clamor elephantis. Cf. <strong>the</strong> EE ii item Barrit elephans cima<br />

vocem emittit.<br />

(B 48-50, a Rufinus group) Bacchantes: woedende (5, 16, 10 vesani<br />

et contra fideni Christi bacchantes), Barathrum : dael (5, 15 plurimos de
