These authorities are good enough for me." Most naturally; for they are true to the law! Dr. Gill is unfortunate in his choice of example. Rhinoceros is correct, according to rule, and Rhinocerus is wrong; the spelling -us does not occur in any classical author (except in a false reading in Lucilius, where -os is now read). Of course, there can be no question about the existence of forms in -os for Greek -of and -on for -ov in a cer- tain class of writers of the Silver Age, when, according to t...hat same Juvenal, Rome was more Greek than Latin. Apuleius occasionally so transliterates; but it is simply one of his many Greek mannerisms. Pliny the Elder is re- sponsible for the most of the transgressions of that law which are to be found in the dictionaries; his reason for such violation of the Latin law is found in his desire to present the technical or scientific words of his Greek original in an untranslated, unchanged form. The same phenomenon, with the same reason underlying, is to be found in the Church Fathers.
