II. 250: 268 sq.: IV. 522 sqq. (where 528 is rejected by Ribbeck: cf. V. IX. 225, which, however, fulfils the purpose of this comparison): XI. 182 sqq.: 201 sq. (treatments of the fall of night). With κατ᾽ ὠαγανοȋο βεβήκει ἠώς … (Q. I. 826 sq.) should be compared especially ruit oceano nox (V. II. 250), because this may be one of the instances, of which others will be discussed below, of a difficulty in Vergil soluble by reference to the late epics. Possibly both phrases imply an ultimate original in which ὠκεανόσ was still located not only round but above the earth (as in Aesch, . P. V. 128 sqq.: cf. Et. Mag. s.v.:Google ScholarHarrison, J. E., Themis ² [Cambridge, 1927], pp. 456 sq.)Google Scholar. There are, of course, objections to both the usual renderings of V. II. 250: a meaning ‘down from the sky’ agrees with Homeric precedent and with V. III. 508 and VI. 539. V. II. 8 sq.: 268 sq.: IV. 522 sqq.: IX. 222 sq.: XI. 182 sq.: 201 sq. may be retractationes (cf. Guillemin, A. M., L'Originalitéde Virgile [Paris, 1931], PP. 125 sqq.Google Scholar) of a source of Q.

X. 745 sq.( = XII. 309 sq.): Q. II. 605: XII. 459 sqq. ~ V. IV. 167 sq.: and parallels collected by Becker, pass. Cf. also: T. 116 (of Sinon: cf. also T 216) ~ V. I. 482 (of the Trojan Athena: cf. V. VI. 469 [of Dido]): T. 265 (of Sinon) ~ V. III. 613 (of Achaemenides). The incidents of Sinon and Achaemenides are linked by the occurrence of the same line as V. II. 76 and III. 612. Cf. Cesareo, pp. 278 sq. Probably Vergil used material concerning Sinon for the incident of Achaemenides. Cf. also: T. 330 sqq. (of Athena helping the wooden horse forward)~ V. X. 246 sqq. (of Cymodocea helping the ship of Aeneas forward): T. 149 s q.~ V. X. 280 sqq.: T. 310 ~ V.X. 501 sq.: T. 649 sq. ~ V.I. 39 sqq.

^{page 180 note 1} Cf. e.g. the death of Dido on the pyre (V. IV. 504 sqq.: 665 sqq.) and the similar death of Oenone (Q. X. 234 sqq.): the collapse of Dido under emotion (V. IV. 391 sq.) and the collapse of Cassandra (T. 439 sqq.), which seem all the more likely to be from a single original here concerned with Cassandra, because Ovid, (Her. V. 199 sq.Google Scholar) uses to describe the plight of Cassandra words which recall Vergil's expressions about Dido: and such incidents as the tree-felling, for funeral rites in Italy (V. VI. 179 sqq.), and for building the wooden horse (Q. XII. 122 sqq.). The comparison of the departures from Carthage (V. V. 1 sqq.) and from Troy (Q. XIV. 370 sqq.) removes a difficulty in Vergil. The sailors of Aeneas, about to sail from Carthage, put garlands on their ships (V. IV. 418). MrSparrow, John (Half-lines and, Repetitions in Vergil [Oxford, 1931], p. 97)Google Scholar argues that the references cited for garlanding ships are not true parallels, generally because they are not concerned with the start of a voyage. He suggests that V. IV. 418 is a tibicen inserted from Georg. I. 304, where it also occurs, but for the end of a voyage. But there is a parallel, which seems to have been missed, in Quintus, according to whom (XIV. 376) the Achaeans put garlands on their ships when they started on their return from Troy. It is therefore likely that here also Vergil and Quintus are both remembering a corresponding passage in earlier poetry. For the adoptions by Vergil of the form of an incident cf. Conway, R. S. in Martin Classical Lectures, I. (1930: Cambridge, Mass., 1931), pp. 151 sqqGoogle Scholar.

II. 486 sqq. where it raised difficulties in a controversy between Fowler, Warde and Raper, R. W. [C.R. XXVII. (1913), pp. 13Google Scholar sqq. and 85], to which the solution perhaps lies in the Hesiodic influence and imagination auditive), and possibly to have suggested dira Celaeno at V. III. 211. (The probability is increased if dirus=disus =δīος in some meaning like ‘magically dangerous,’ not ‘bright,’ as δīος is still too often translated [Harrison, J.

Only in Quintus (XIII. 168 sqq.) and the Ilias parua (according to Proclus) is Coroebus killed by Diomedes. Possibly the Ilias parua itself is the source of Quintus here. Vergil, however, could not make Diomedes kill Coroebus, who is for Vergil a very sympathetic character, because Diomedes is friendly to Aeneas afterwards (V. XI. 243 sqq.). Nor could he allow the deed to be done by Neoptolemus (as in the general version), for that would have mitigated the tremendous entry of Neoptolemus, on the heels of Polites. He chose instead Peneleos V. II. 425), a poetical name from one of his available traditions: for Peneleos appears with other Vergilian names at T. 180.

Vergil seems to have found in an original at this place a reference to the sons of Priam and to the death of Polites by a spear, and to have combined an incident, preserved at Q. VIII. 409 sqq., in which Polites escapes an arrow. His use of these ideas is typical.

^{page 187 note 11} Androgeos is otherwise unknown in the Trojan cycle (Heyne, ad loc). When he meets Aeneas, his words indicate that the Achaeans are already burning and pillaging Troy (V. II. 373 sqq.), though there has hardly been time for their work to have proceeded so far (Heinze, p. 27: cf. 73).

^{page 187 note 15} Cf. T. 664 sq. with V. II. 361 sq.: where an Ennian quality sustains the probability that Vergil owes much in the Second Aeneid to the suggestion of Ennius, with whom he also seems to share sometimes the same Greek originals.

^{page 187 note 16} Q. XIII. 81 sqq.

^{page 187 note 17} V. II. 368 sq. I add the suggestion that a common original was followed at V. II. 313, where trumpets are mentioned, and at T. 326 sq., where a supernatural trumpet prophesies war as the horse is drawn into Troy. For V. II. 313 Servius compares an ancient custom of taking cities to the sound of trumpets (recognized apparently at Σ 219): and, during an investigation of the magically regarded incidents of the fall of Troy, I had compared the trumpets used at Jericho for T. 326 sq. (in Class. Phil. XXV. [1930], p. 363Google Scholar, note 2). Cf. the conjecture of Klausen, R. H. (Aeneas und die Penaten [Hamburg, 1840], Vol. II., p. 693)Google Scholar that in the early saga the Heracleidae took Argos in this way: a conjecture which Gruppe, O. (Griechiscke Mythologie und Religionsgeschichte [München, 1906], Vol. II., p. 1199Google Scholar and note 4) thought bold but probably right. Tryphiodorus should have connected the trumpet call with Athena (cf. Gruppe, ibid., for the storm-symbolism of her aegis and the explanation that the trumpets were meant to exert wind pressure on the walls), and with the effective breach of the magic wall to admit the horse (cf. reff. at p. 181, note 6, supr.: T. 302: 330 sqq.: 390): but he attributes the call to Zeus, and considers it only prophetic. Vergil has suppressed these significances, as he has rationalized, apparently, at V. II. 298 a personification of the magic walls, preserved at Q. XII. 510 (where, if I am right, the MSS. reading should be restored), probably from the same original.

^{page 188 note 1} Q. XIII. 300 sqq. Heinze (p. 72) shows that the passage cannot be derived from the Second Aeneid: but in my opinion handbooks or general knowledge will hardly account for the conditions, as Heinze thinks (pp. 72 sq.: 81).
