Note 45 — A. PERSIUS FLACCUS
Reading edition
arcessis = in auxilium vocas (Jahn). Conington’s ‘serve a summons on’ is a caricature. Comp. Ov., Fast., 4, 263, and Petron., 122. Accerso is a rarer form than arcesso, and to be reserved for state occasions, according to Brambach.—fibra: See v. 26.—da fortunare = ut fortunent.—fortunare: used absolutely, as in Afranius, v. 84 (Ribbeck). Fortuno a vox sollemnis in prayers (Jahn).—Penatis: Gods of the Basket and Store.
