[270, 271] The structure of the sentence ‘ut forte’ followed below by ‘horum unum’ is the same as that of v. 488 below: “Uti laeva duo forte gerebat . . . . praefixa hastilia ferro, Horum unum . . . . dirigit.” ‘Ut forte’ 5. 329: comp. ib. 388. With the circumlocution “pulcherrima fratrum corpora” comp. 9. 272, “Bis sex . . . lectissima matrum Corpora.” So Enn. A. 97, “Ter quattor corpora sancta Avium.”
