[54] It matters little whether we make this and the next sentence interrogative with most modern editors, or affirmative with Ribbeck. The apparent imitation in Val. F. 3. 300, cited by Cerda, is perhaps in favour of the former. Rom. has ‘exoptatique,’ and so three other copies in Heyne's and Wagner's lists. Heyne under stands ‘nostri’ “a nobis promissi:” but this is hardly necessary.
