The Satires of Juvenal, Persius, Sulpicia, and Lucilius

Note 1581 — SULPICIA.

Lewis Evans translation

Prisci Catonis. Priscus is, as Dusa shows on the authority of Plutarch, not the epithet, but the name of Cato, by which he was distinguished. So Horace, iii. Od., xxi., 11, "Narratur et Prisci Catonis sæpe mero caluisse virtus." (But cf. Hor., ii., Ep. ii., 117.)
