Chapter VII

§1. praemium quoddam Harl. 4995, probably following a correction in the Vallensis: primus quid amplius Bn Bg Ioan. Sal. HFTM Harl. 2662, 4950. Amplissimum Stoer.

intrare portum Bn Bg H Ioan. N Sal. and most MSS. Halm adopts Meiser’s conj. instar portus. On this reading the advocate who has nothing but (solam) the scribendi facultas, and who therefore is found wanting at a crisis, is compared to a harbour which seems to promise a refuge to every ship at sea, but which really (owing to rocks and sand-banks) can afford protection only when the sea is calm, and so not praesentissimis quibusque periculis. Neither of the two justifies the expectations formed. But it must be admitted that the comparison of a man to a harbour is awkward. Other suggestions are monstrare portum: instaurare p.: and in terra portum (?) Jeep.

§2. statimque. I follow Krüger (3rd ed.) in the punctuation: see ad loc. The editors print statimque, si non succ.

§3. quae vero patitur, &c. In the text possit (for sit of MSS.) is due to Frotscher, omittere (for mittere) to Bonnell. Ratio (for oratio Bn Bg H Ioan. M) occurs in Harl. 4995. Krüger (3rd ed.), following Gertz, reads quae vero patitur hoc ratio ut quisquam sit orator aliquando? mitto casus: quid, &c. Aliquando he takes as = ‘only sometimes,’ ‘not always’ (i.e. tum demum cum se praeparare potuerit). For mitto casus (‘praeteritio’) he compares v. 10. 92: xi. 2. 25.

§5. quid secundum ac deinceps: so Harl. 4995. The MSS. clearly point to this reading, though Halm and Meister print ac sec. et deinc. Bn and Bg (as also N Ioan. and Sal.) have ac sec. ac dein.: but in Bg above the first ac the letter d appears (evidently for quid, not ad as H), and over the second ac, et is written, and is adopted by HFTM. In place of the first ac Harl. 2662 gives atque, and so Spalding reports Guelf. (with which 2662 is frequently in agreement). The Carcassonensis also has quid secundum.

§6. via dicet ducetur, bHFM Harl. 4950 Burn. 244: ducet ducetur Bn Bg Ioan. Sal. Dorv. Harl. 4995 shows the variant viam discet (as Goth. Voss. 2 Vall.) Meister, following Eussner, inverts the words, reading ducetur, dicet to avoid a ‘tautology’: cp. iii. 7. 15: ix. 4. 120. Bonnet changed ducetur into utetur. Kiderlin cannot believe that Quintilian wrote ducetur ... velut duce, and suggests that certa may have fallen out after serie (Rhein. Mus. 46, p. 24). This gives, he thinks, additional point to the clause introduced by propter quod: men who have had but little practice do not always speak methodically (via), but in telling stories they have no difficulty in keeping to the thread of their discourse, because the sequence of events is ‘a trusty guide.’

§8. paulum, BM Harl. 2662, 4829, 11671, Burn. 244, Dorv.: paululum bHN Ioan. Harl. 4995, 4950, Burn. 243, Bodl.

sed ipsum os coit atque concurrit, Halm, by adding os to the reading of B (Harl. 2662, 4995). sed ipsum os quoque concurrit, Spalding after Gesner. In Ioan. I find sed id ipsum coit atque conc., which may show that we ought to read os ipsum.

elocutioni, b: om. B (also N Ioan. Harl. 2662 Sal.) ‘haud scio an recte,’ Halm.

§9. observatione una, Harl. 4995 M Dorv. and Meister: observationen (-nū Bg) in luna Bn Bg Ioan. N Sal. Harl. 2662, 4829, 11671: observatione (-um H) in una bH: observatione simul Halm.

§13. superfluere video, cum eo quod, Harl. 4995, Voss. 2 Goth. Spald. and most edd.: superfluere video: quodsi Halm, and a later hand in Vall. (Becher): videmus superfluere: cum eo quodsi Meister, followed by Hild and Krüger (3rd ed.). The commonest MS. reading is superfluere cum eo quod (BHFTN Sal. Ioan. Harl. 2662, 4829, 11671, Burn. 243, Bodl., Dorv.), from which video seems to have disappeared: the later hand in Bg gives videantur.

Meister seems to be right in retaining cum eo quod, though his adoption of videmus for video is unnecessary, considering mirabor in the same sentence. Cum eo quod (see ad loc.) is defended by Günther (de Conj. Caus. apud Quint. usu: Halle, 1881, p. 24): he holds that it is more probable that video dropped out of the text than that it ‘in illo corrupto cumeo latet’ (Halm). Becher (Phil. Runds. I, n. 51: 1638) denied that ‘cum eo quod’ could mean ‘mit der Einschränkung dass,’ either in Cic. ad Att. vi. 1. 7 or anywhere in Quintilian. He found the necessary limitation in quodsi (‘wenn dagegen’: Cic. ad Fam. xii. 20) and supported Halm’s reading (which is also that of Par. 2. sec. m.), explaining the whole passage as follows: ‘Ich bin kein Freund des extemporierten Vortrages: wenn aber Geist und Wärme belebend wirkt, trifft es sich oft, dass der grösste Fleiss nicht den Erfolg eines extemporierten Vortrages erreichen kann.’ But in his latest paper (Programm des Gymnasiums zu Aurich) he advocates the reading and explanation adopted in the text.

§14. ut Cicero dictitabant. The reading is far from certain, but it seems best to adhere (with Halm) to the oldest MS., Bn, which is in agreement with N Sal. Ioan., Harl. 2662, 11671, and Dorv. The best alternative is ut Cicero dicit aiebant (C, Par. 1, also in margin of Harl. 4950: Bonnell-Meister): b H Bodl. and Burn. 243 give dicit agebant, which shows that the older codex from which b is derived probably had this reading, if indeed it is not a mistake for dictitabant. Bg gives dictabant: Harl. 4995 Goth. Voss. 2, Par. 2, sec. m. aiebant: Regius conjectured ut Cicero ait dictitabant: so ed. Camp, and Meister, cp. xii. 3. 11. For the inclusion of Cicero among the veteres cp. ix. 3. 1 ‘ut omnes veteres et Cicero praecipue.’

§16. tum intendendus. Krüger (3rd ed.) brackets tum (which is omitted in bHM) on the ground that this sentence does not contain, like the next (addit ad dicendum ...) a new thought, but rather (after the parentheses pectus est enim ... mentis, and ideoque imperitis ... non desunt) forms only a further development of what went before (omniaque de quibus dicturi erimus, personae ... recipienda): hence also the repetition of participles, habenda ... recipienda ... intendendus. H. 2662 gives tamen (and is here again in agreement with Guelf.).

addit ad dicendum, B: addiscendum (om. addit) bHFT. The loss of addit seems to have given rise to interpolation: M shows addit ad discendum stimulos habet et dicendorum expectata laus. Bonnell prints Ad dic. etiam pudor stim. habet et dic. exp. aus: so Vall. For the gerund used as subst. cp. pudenda xi. 1. 84: i. 8. 21: praefanda viii. 3. 45: desuescendis iii. 8. 70 and xii. 9. 17 num ex tempore dicendis inseri possit.

§17. pretium, all codd.: praemium Halm, following Regius.

§18. praecepimus, edd. vett, occurs in Harl. 4995 and Vall.²: other codd. praecipimus.

§19. cum ... sint consecuti bHM: cum ... sunt consecuti Bn Bg N. I cannot follow Becher in adopting the indicative here, as at 2 §6 (tradiderunt), where see note. Here cum is more or less causal: there it is antithetical. In point of form the two sentences are no doubt very much alike. Here the meaning seems to be ‘he who wishes to acquire extemporalis facilitas must consider it his duty to arrive at the point where..., seeing that many,’ &c.

Gertz put a full stop at tutior, and for cum read quin, holding that, on the traditional reading (i.e. with extemporalis facilitas as subject), potest would be expected instead of debet. This suggestion is adopted in Krüger’s third edition. H. J. Müller suggested Nam ... sunt consecuti.

§20. tanta esse umquam debet. This conj. of Herzog I find in the cod. Dorv., and receive it into the text; Halm and Krüger adopt Jeep’s tanta sit umquam. Bn Bg N Ioan. Harl. 2662 give tanta esse umquam fiducia: M has tantam esse umquam fiduciam: Vall. esse unquam tantam fid.: Harl. 4995 esse tantam unquam. Regius made the addition of velim after facilitatis: Becher thinks it may have dropped out before ut non. Meister follows: perhaps rather tantam velim (t^m) esse unquam.

§22. consequi, Spald.: non sequi bH: sequi MC Harl. 4995, 4950: om. Bn, Bg, N Sal. Ioan. Harl. 4829. Becher would omit it, explaining utrumque non dabitur as ‘vim omnem et rebus et verbis intendere.’

§23. satis Krüger (3rd ed.) brackets, considering it to be the result of a dittography, and comparing what follows deinde ... aptabimus vela et disponemus rudentes. It seems however quite genuine.

§24. non labitur. Perhaps the most that can be said for this reading (which is that of Spalding, following earlier edd.) is that it is undoubtedly better than non capitur, which occurs in Bn Bg H Ioan. M and most codd., and is adopted by Halm and Meister. Capitur is explained in the Bonnell-Meister ed. by reference to such phrases as ‘altero oculo capi’ and ‘mens capta’ alongside of ‘mente captus’ in Livy: it is not ‘lamed’ or ‘weakened.’ This can hardly stand. Another reading is rapitur, which Halm thought might be right: but the notion of ‘snatching away’ seems too violent for the context, though appropriate enough in the passages quoted in support, vi. pr. §4 a certissimis rapta fatis, and Hor. Car. iv. 7. 8 quae rapit hora diem. Hild suggests animo (or mente) non labitur: Jeep non carpitur (cp. Sen. Nat. Quaest. 2. 13 totum potest excidere quod potest carpi): Becher non abit (cp. ix. 4. 14 abierit omnis vis, iucunditas, decor). The passage invites emendation: non cadit might stand alongside of Becher’s non abit, or such a future as servabitur or retinebitur could take the place of the negation, though we should then look for deperdet instead of deperdit.

non omnino B and codd.: omnino non Gesner, followed by Halm.

§25. est alia exercitatio, Harl. 2662 (Guelf.), 4995, 4950, 4829, 11671, Burn. 244, M, C, and so Krüger (3rd ed.): est illa BH Bodl. Burn. 243 Dorv.: est et illa Spalding Halm and Meister (cp. ix. 3. 35 est et illud repetendi genus, quod...).

utilior (Halm and Meister, following Spalding and ‘edd. vett.’) Vall.², Harl. 4995: all other codd. utilitatis (Halm: ‘ex utilis magis?). In support of his proposal to read maioris utilitatis, Kiderlin (Blätter f. d. bayer. Gymn. 24, p. 90) compares ii. 4. 20 quod non simplicis utilitatis opus est: and xi. 1. 60 quod est sane summae difficultatis.

§26. quam illa: so all codd. Gertz quam in illa (sc. exercitatione), and so Meister. This is opposed by Becher (Bursian’s Jahresb. 1887, p. 49), ‘Zu componitur ist Subjekt exercitatio cogitandi totasque m. vel silentio (dum tamen ... ipsum) persequendi, d.h. dem Sinne nach tacita oratio, wie dum t. q. dicat i. s. i. zeigt, zu illa ist Subjekt vera oratio; componitur oratio aber ist nicht auffälliger als explicatur exercitatio.’

§27. ut Cicero ... tradit. Krüger (3rd ed.) follows Gertz in transferring this parenthesis to the end of the previous sentence, after ubique. Becher rejects it as a gloss.

aut legendum b M: om. BN Sal.: vel ad legendum Vall. Becher would omit it, on the ground that the whole chapter is concerned only with writing and speech, and even with writing only so far as it promotes the ‘facultas ex tempore dicendi.’

§28. innatans Stoer: unatrans BN Ioan. Sal.: inatrans bH: iura trans Harl. 2662: intrans FM Vall.².

§29. an si, Meister (following ed. Camp.): ac si bHFT Burn. 243: an Bn Bg M.

debent, all codd.: debemus Krüger (3rd ed.) after Gertz. Either seems quite appropriate to the conditional use of the participle: ‘when men are debarred from both, they ought all the same,’ &c.

sic dicere. The grounds on which I base this emendation are stated in the note ad loc. Bn Bg HN and most codd. have inicere, which looks as if some copyist had stumbled over the repetition of the letters -ic in what I take to be the original text, whereupon the preceding tamen (or tam̅) would assist the transition to inicere. Cp. the omission of sic in most codd. in ut sic dixerim 2 §15. Halm (after Bursian) wrote id efficere, and so Meister. Other attempted emendations are vincere M, Harl. 4950, Burn. 244 Vall.²: tantum iniicere Harl. 4995: inniti or adniti edd.: id agere Badius: evincere Törnebladh.

§32. et in his: in his Halm and Meister: ne in his BN Ioan. HMC Dorv. Bodl.: ne in iis Harl. 2662: vel in iis Spald.: vel in his Bonnell and Krüger (3rd ed.). I venture on et, which seems to help the antithesis with in hoc genere above: v. ad loc.

velut summas ... conferre. So Bonnell (Lex. p. 139) Halm, Meister, Krüger (3rd ed.). The MSS. vary greatly: vel in summas in (sine bH: sive Harl. 4995) commentarium Bn Bg Dorv. Bodl. Harl 2662: velin summas et (suprascr. in) commentarium N: vel insinuamus sine commendarios M: commentarioram et capita Harl. 4950. Other conjectural emendations are velut in summas commentarium Spald.: mihi quae scr. velut in commentarium summas et c. conf. Zumpt: nec in his quae scrips. velim summas in commentarium et capita conferri Frotscher; vel in his quae scrips. rerum summas (cp. Liv. xl. 29. 11 lectis rerum summis) in commentarios conferre Jeep: ex iis quae scrips. res summas in commentarium et capita conferre, Zambaldi,—(on the ground that with conferre, ex his gives a better sense than in his). To these may perhaps be added et in his quae scrips. velut summas in commentariorum capita conferre.

In the Blätter f. d. bayer. Gymn. (1888) 24, pp. 90-91 Kiderlin discusses the whole passage. Keeping to the reading of the oldest MSS. (ne in his) he proposes ne in his quae scripserimus erremus: ‘damit wir nich bei dem Vortrage dessen, was wir geschrieben haben, den Faden verlieren’: cp. the use of errare xi. 2. 20 and 36. He rejects the various conjectures suggested above for vel in summas on the ground that it is impossible to explain ‘summas in commentarium et capita conferre.’ What is the meaning of ‘entering the chief points in a note-book and heads’ (‘den Hauptinhalt in ein Gedenkbuch und einzelne Hauptabschnitte einzutragen’—Bonnell-Meister)? Can the note-book and the ‘heads’ be conjoined in this way? You can make an entry in your notes, but not in ‘capita’: ‘in ein Gedenkbuch kann man eintragen, in Hauptabschnitte aber nicht.’ Baur’s version is excluded by the order of words: ‘den Hauptinhalt und die einzelnen Punkte in ein Gedenkbuch eintragen.’ Lindner’s is even less satisfactory: ‘welcher zufolge man auch von dem, was man geschrieben hat, den Hauptinhalt nach gewissen Hauptabschnitten eintragen soll.’

Kiderlin thinks the context shows that the essence of Laenas’s advice was to enter the chief points in a memorandum. This demands the elimination of the unmeaning et which wrongly conjoins commentarium and capita. Again as summa and caput are synonyms for ‘Hauptpunkt’ (cp. iii. 11. 27 and vi. 1. 2) one of the two may very well be a gloss: and the vel in vel in summas seems to show that these words were originally a marginal gloss to explain (in) capita. Kiderlin therefore proposes to transform the text as follows: ne in his quae scripserimus erremus [vel in summas] in commentarium capita conferre.

quod non simus, Regius, Frotscher, Becher, Meister, Krüger (3rd ed.): quod simus Bn Bg Ioan. M Dorv.: and so Halm: non simus bHT Bodl. In explanation of quod simus Spalding says ‘ubi satis fidere possumus memoriae ne scribendum quidem esse censeo’; and so Prof. Mayor (Analysis, p. 56), ‘We are even hampered by writing out at all what we intend to commit to memory: bound down to the written words, we are closed against sudden inspirations.’

hic quoque, Bn Bg and most codd.: hoc quoque Harl. 4995: id quoque bHM.
