Note 281:1 — STRAWBERRY.
Reading edition
It seems probable that the Romans only knew of the Wild Strawberry, of which both Virgil and Ovid speak—
"Qui legitis flores et humi nascentia fraga."—Ecl., ii.
"Contentique cibis nullo cogente creatis Arbuteos fœtus montanaque fraga legebant."—Metam., i, 105.
