Note (54) — BOOK V.
James Greive translation
54. If a woman does not conceive.) Si non comprehendit. This sentence has, in some copies, been joined with the former, si concidere vitio locorum, &c. as if comprehendit related to the consistence of the pessus obtained by the honey. There are several other explanations offered, but none of them with any appearance of truth. I thought it capable of no other sense than what I have given in the translation; and was pleased to find this supported by the opinion of Morgagni, Ep. i. p. 18.
