14 BIRT'S EDITION OF fulmine, ivihre, the former referring to Semele alone, the latter to Danae alone, is perhaps a sufficient excuse for the singular exspectans. Whereas any such change of con- struction as exspectant or exs2')ectat for the participle which prevails in the other clauses, ' Non edita Tyndaris — Non fulgens Cassiepia — Non defensa, ' is very unpleasing and forms a harsh break in the regular sequence. 43-44. Castra foro rostris, urbi praeponere castra, Tam procul hoc gnato, tarn ...procul hac patria ? rostris is one of Birt's happiest corrections. B gives the V. Thus : Castra foro castra urbi praeponere castra. In 44 the case is less clear. B gives it thus : lam procul hoc gnato, tam procul hac patria, and both Birt and Vollmer agree in retaining hoc gnato, hac 2^atria. It may perhaps be urged in favour of my haec . . . Haec that it accords with the fondness for repetition of the same word which marks the poem throughout. 51. Nunc celeris Afros fperiurac miha gentis. It is much to be regretted that B here gives an un- certain sound.
