Note 101* — FIRST DISCOURSE (continued 4)
A. R. (Alfred Richard) Allinson translation
[101] P. 181:
◆Quotation badly understood. Crissantis, in the Latin verse, is a participle and not a proper noun. (Cf. Juvenal, sat. iv.)
◆Filènes, from Philenus, a courtesan in Lucian.
◆The line should read,
Ipsa Medullinæ frictum crissantis adorat.
