E. T. Merrill, Commentary on Catullus (ed. E. T. Merrill), Poem 34 (search)
A festival hymn to Diana, written, as usual, as if to be sung by a chorus of girls and boys, but whether responsively or not it is impossible to determine. If so, however, vv. 1-4 and 21-24 were doubtless sung by the united chorus, vv. 1-8 and 13-16 by the girls alone, and vv. 9-12 and 17-20 by the boys alone. The composition was perhaps suggested by the annual festival to the Diana of the famous temple on the Aventine, held at the time of full moon (i.e. the Ides) in the month of August. To be compared with this are three odes of Horace: Hor. Carm. 1.21, Hor. Carm. 4.6, and the Carmen SaeculareHor. CS 1ff., in all of which, however, Apollo is celebrated with Diana. On the meter see Intr. 82b. in fide: cf. Hor. Carm. 4.6.33 Deliae tutela deae. integri: modifying both nouns; so also in v. 3. cf. Catul. 61.36
