The Satires of Juvenal, Persius, Sulpicia, and Lucilius

Note 1733 — BOOK IX.

Lewis Evans translation

"This Fragment is simply an illustration of the rule that the preposition per in composition remains unchanged, unless it stand before the letter L, when by assimilation it is changed into the initial letter of the word: so per lacio becomes pellacio; per labor, pellabor; per luceo, pelluceo."
