Note 1335 — Chapter X · THE ORGANIZATION OF THE COMITIA CENTURIATA
Reading edition
Orat. 46. 156: “Centuriam, ut Censoriae Tabulae loquuntur, fabrum audeo dicere, non fabrorum.” Cicero seems to refer to recent Tabulae Censoriae; though he might quote ancient poets, he was not the man to ransack old documents even to learn the ancient usage of words.
