1 Mr. Lindsay (Lat. Lang. p. 155) seems to me to misconceive the importance of this passage. It is, no doubt based on some passage in the works of the Greek musician Aristoxenus; but its importance lies in the fact that in order to illustrate a continuous rise and fall of musical pitch in the same syllable (that is the ancient Greek circumflex) Vitruvius chooses Latin words, and these are words which independent evidence assures us were circumflexed.
