Extract

The Dative or Ablative of this ‘plurale tantum’ (Charisius 33, 7 arid 549, I) was used by one of the earlier Republican writers. It is quoted by Ps.-Placidus (see Jouvn. Phil. 34, 254) from a MS. which had the marginal note ‘capillis muliebribus ante, id est a fronte, pendentibus.’ These marginal notes were often direct traditions from the earliest glossographi, the ‘glossematum scriptores,’ who provided material also for Varro and Verrius Flaccus, either directly or through the writings of earlier grammatici.
