Page 20. Note 2. A note of Chalmers is quoted in which he says: 'The reader will search in vain for this last passage in the Book of Job. The first clause occurs in chap. xxiv. v. 12. "They have dreamed,” &c., is not in the book of Psalms, although something like it is in the prophecy of Isaiah.' Lord Beauchamp has pointed out that in the Vulgate, with which Pope would have been more familiar than the English version, Psalm lxxv. 6, reads, " Dormierunt somnium suum: nihil invenerunt." The verse is found in Psalm lxxvi. 5, of the English Bible: "The stout-hearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.”

180. Note 1. I have explained the abbreviated words in the text,
'Sir Tho. San. himself,' as if they meant 'Sir Thomas Lyttel-
ton (father of Pope's correspondent), Sandys, and Wyndham
himself.' But I am now inclined to think Sir Tho. San.' is
Sir Thomas Sanderson, one of the secretaries to the Prince
of Wales, and a prominent member of the Opposition.
"Hertfordshire" should be "Herefordshire."

For "Præsigenda," read "præfigenda."

Note 1. ('Latina' suggested as a correction for 'Lavina.') "A curious proof of Pope's own want of practice in Latin verse composition. For Bentley would never have suggested an emendation involving a false quantity." In making this observation I overlooked what Pope says in his prefatory note: "At si quæ sint in hisce castigationibus, de quibus non satis liquet, syllabarum quantitates, #poλeyóμeva nostra Libro ipsi præfigenda, ut consulas moneo." I cannot, however, discover Pope's meaning. Bentley pointed out false quantities made by other scholars, but he did not make them himself. See on this point Professor Jebb's 'Bentley' in the Men of Letters series, p. 215.

Since writing the above words, Professor Jebb, whose opinion I asked, has kindly sent me the following remarks: "The words in the prefatory note to the 'Virgilius Restauratus' are clearly meant, I think, as a sarcastic allusion to Bentley's Dissertation on the Metres of Terence,' in which he justified, on metrical grounds, the very numerous changes which he made in that poet's text, and also in the 'Fables of Phædrus.' If the 'Latina' for 'Lavina' was not the satirist's blunder, it was perhaps intended to suggest that Bentley's metrical subtleties might lead to errors which would be manifest in a metre so familiar as the hexameter. The Terence (with Phædrus) was published in 1726, and the Virgilius Restauratus' was doubtless especially aimed at that book."
