FINIS.
[*] Hanc partem Musicæ disciplinæ Majores mutam nominârunt, quæ ore clauso loquitur, et quibusdam gesticulationibus facit intelligi, quod vix narrante lingua, aut scripturæ textu possit agnosci.
Cassiod, var. 1. 20.
Loquacissimas manus, linguosos digitos, silentium clamosum, expositionem tacitam.
Idem.
[Spelling Notes]
The word “Salii” was consistently printed as Salü; it has been corrected for the e-text. The word “Præsul” was printed in italics and may have read “Prœsul”; it is here given the standard spelling.
A number of words usually spelled with “y” were written with “i” in this text: nimph, mith, simbol; and names such as Pilades, Hilas.
The form “Hetruscans” is used consistently.
Some Variations and Anomalies:
“character” is sometimes spelled “charracter” or “caracter”
“direct” and “dirrect” both occur
“withall” is more common than “withal”
“embarras” is consistently spelled with one “s”
“exagerate” is almost always spelled with one g
“choregraphy” is always written without the second o
“gestual” is not an error for "gestural" but a different word
