Note 709 — JUVENAL'S SATIRES. (continued 3)
Lewis Evans translation
Mullum. Gifford always renders this by "sur-mullet" ["mugilis" being properly the mullet, of which Holyday gives a drawing, ad x., 317]; Mr. Metcalfe, by "the sea-barbel." Cf. ad iv., 15.
"Nor doubt thy throat of mullets to amerce, While scarce a gudgeon lingers in thy purse." Badham.
