Note I.

And parchment with the smoother side displayed.—P. [231].

The students used to write their notes on parchments; the inside, on which they wrote, was white; the other side was hairy, and commonly yellow. Quintilian reproves this custom, and advises rather table-books, lined with wax, and a stile, like that we use in our vellum table-books, as more easy.

Note II.

A fuming-pan thy Lares to appease.—P. [232].
