Note 303 — ADDRESS.
Reading edition
Plautus speaks in the Epidicus (Act III. Sc. iv. 14, 15) of one who obtained great riches by the Duelling Art, meaning the Art of War:—
"Arte duellica Divitias magnas indeptum."
And Horace, in his Odes (Lib. IV. Carm. xv. 4-9), hails the age of Augustus, as at peace, or free from Duels, and with the Temple of Janus closed:—
"Tua, Cæsar, ætas ..... vacuum duellis Janum Quirini clausit."
