PART n 85
From marginalia on a sentence of Sulpicius' Dialogues (1, 27,
4 tu vero, inquit Postumianus, vel Celtiee aut, si mavis, Gallice
loquere) has come the absurd item in other glossaries (see Thes.
Gloss. S.V.):
Vel Celtiee: gentis cujusdam loquela,
and, apparently, in this one (276, 23):
Celtiee: gens.
Even Phocas' Grammar re-appears in (335, 58):
Vespertilio et (s)tilio unum est,
which seems to reflect the two Corpus items :
Stilio : hraedemuus.
(S 554)
(U 105) Vespertilio
: hraeSemuus.
Both may be referred to some marginal annotation on Phoc.
413, 8 where Phocas had mentioned as example of the declension
-10, -ionis the noun stellio '
lizard,' and the annotator had written
above this word a second example, vespertilio 'bat.' The excerptor
made the same mistake as that described above in Part I, Magistratus:
senatus, and wrote in the 'glossae collectae' Stellio:
vespertilio with the Ags. gloss on vespertilio (as in EE).
The Leyden Glossary entitles us to ascribe to Gregory's
Dialogues (4, 39) the item (283, 35):
Dalmatica: tunica manicis latis.
Nonius Marcellus' 'Corapendiosa Doctrina,' a dictionary of
Republican Latin, was an English possession. The archetype of
all our MSS. seems to have been taken by Alcuin to Tours. Some
leakage
from this source is therefore to be looked for. The item
Colustrum: lac concretum in mammis (278, 61) is identical with
Nonius (84, 7) Colustra: lac concretum in mammis (a passage
marred in the Nonius archetype). But I find no unmistakable
trace (such as a Nonius cluster) of the use of this dictionary.
The EE i item Culina: coquiua may or may not come from this
source. Colmnba's Hymn, the 'Altus' (the hymn which, sung
seven times, made an evil spirit powerless), contains no more
stanzas than the letters of the alphabet. Yet a large number
