shell-fish, purple, is not clear. Perhaps <strong>the</strong> annotation really belonged to<br />
a neighbouring line : et revera quod sericum, quae regum purpura, quae<br />
pictura textricum potest floribus comparari. The flowers referred to are<br />
yellow lilies.<br />
Maforte : scybla (Ep. 14 E 15 ; C. G. L. v 371, 33 ; Corp. M 9). Perhaps<br />
frova Isid. OflF. 2, 20, 6 ipsum velamen vulgo mavortem vocant, id est<br />
Martem, quia signum maritalis dignitatis ac potestatis<br />
in eo est.<br />
Myoparo: <strong>the</strong>bseib (Ep. 14 E 20 ; C. G. L. v 371, 38; Corp. M 208).<br />
Possibly from Orosius Hist. 6, 2, 24 in myoparonem Seleuci piratae, ipso<br />
pirata juvante, transiluit.<br />
Momentum: scytil (Ep. 14 E 25 ; C. G. L. v 371, 43; Corp. M 259).<br />
Since <strong>the</strong> items Mulciber, Miu^x, Magnes seem Abstrusa item.s, <strong>the</strong>re may<br />
be an Abstr.-Abol. batch here, <strong>and</strong> this item may be a re-casting of Abstr.<br />
119, 8 Momentum : stylus in quo momentana.<br />
And in Corpus alone :<br />
(M 197) Mercurium :<br />
vocabant...Paulum vero Mercmium.<br />
Woden.<br />
Presumably from Act. Apost. 14, 11<br />
(M 223) Minaci : hlibendri. Perhaps (with M 224 Mitigat) from Virgil<br />
(Aen. 8, 668 te, Catilina, minaci pendentem scopulo).<br />
(M 227) Mitra : haet. Leid. (i^ 26, 8) suggests for source Isidore Oflf. 2,<br />
5, 2 impone eis mitras.<br />
N<br />
Nomisma : mynit (Ep. 16 A 9 ; C. G. L. v 373, 49 ; Corp. N 144). Pos-<br />
sibly a Bible gloss from Mat. 22,<br />
19 osLendite mihi nomisraa census. From<br />
Leid. (§ 29, 32) we learn that Corp. X 175 Nummismum (for Nomisma) :<br />
solidum, comes from a note on Jerome's Commentary<br />
on Mat<strong>the</strong>w. But<br />
<strong>the</strong>re is an AboUta gloss (127, 15) Xomisma: nummi percussura vel<br />
moneta, <strong>and</strong> an Abstr.-Abol. batch seems to begin <strong>the</strong> N-section in EE.<br />
And in Corpus alone :<br />
(N 46-47) Nazaraei loccas, Xaulum : ferescaet. Perhaps a Bible pair,<br />
from Num. 6, 18 <strong>and</strong> Jon. 1, 3 (et dedit naulum ejus). We should print<br />
Nazaraei : loccas (making <strong>the</strong> English word <strong>the</strong> interjiretation) if it comes<br />
Thren. 4, 7 c<strong>and</strong>idiores Nazaraei ejus nive.<br />
O<br />
Oscillae: totridan (Ep. 16 E 2; C. G. L. v 375, 16; Cori>. O 268). The<br />
correct Latin word is oscillum, Plur. oscilla, which suggests <strong>the</strong> possibility<br />
of Oscilla : etotridan. The locus classicus is Virgil Geo. 2, 388 sq.<br />
Et te, Bacche, vocant per carmina laeta, tibique<br />
Oscilla ex alta suspendunt mollia pinu.<br />
The Erf.2 gloss, ano<strong>the</strong>r puzzle, (C. G. L. v 317, 21) Oscilla: simaria<br />
{(TTjfjiaia Gundermann), id est pei-soua, might be a Virgil item. But Virgi<br />
