Excerpt from The Adelphoe of Terence: With Introduction, Notes and Critical Appendix The text of the present edition of the Adelphoe is substantially that of Dziatzko sedition of the text of the six plays, published at Leipzig in 1884, in the Tauchnitz series. The only departure from that edition, aside from a few matters of punctuation, is in verse 56, where, for the sake of the sense, I have substituted audacter for avt audebit, from Dziatzko sedition of the single play, published in 1881. Dziatzko stext is confessedly the best, and the illustrative quotations from the other plays have in all cases been made from it in the notes. A collation (not published) of the Codex Parisinus, made by Prof. E.M. Pease, came to my hands after the text had gone to press. Had I seen it sooner I should have been tempted to use it, in connection with other apparatus, for a fresh revision of the text of the Adelphoe.
