Note (65) — BOOK V.
James Greive translation
65. Soft thread, acia molli.) Acia occurs no where else but in this single place of Celsus; the translation is agreeable to the sentiments of Rhodius de Acia, cap. 14. and I think it capable of no other sense. It may not be improper however to observe, that in some copies, though they are not of the best authority, acu is read instead of acia, but with no apparent meaning.
