Havilland Le Mesurier Chepmell translation
If this be meant for S. C. de Bacchanalibus, the quotation is a mistake, as that decree is not later than Plautus: probably instead of “senatus consultum” it ought to be said inscription, or a similar word, as undoubtedly the inscription of the columna rostrata is meant.—Germ. Edit.
