Note 78 — ON ABSTINENCE FROM ANIMAL FOOD. BOOK THE THIRD.

Thomas Taylor translation

In the original, μνημην δε καταληψιν αξιωματος παρεληλυθότος, οὗ το παρον εξ αισθησεως κατεληφθη; but for αξιωματος, I read πραγματος. Felicianus also appears to have found this reading in his manuscript copy of this work; for his version of the passage is, “vel memoriam rei præteritæ comprehensionem, quam præsentem sensus perciperat.”
