P. xi (Introduction):
In answer to the question how he managed to write them so quickly he says himself in a letter to Atticus: ἀπόγραφα sunt, minore labore funt; verba tantum adfero, quibus abundo.6For funt read fiunt.
6 Ad Att. xii.52.3.
Pp. 98-99 (1.34.84):
qui et domesticis et forensibus solaciis ornamentisque privatiFor Domesticus read Domesticis.
I have been robbed of the consolations of family life4 and the distinctions of a public career
4 Domesticus refers to the death of his daughter Tullia, forensibus to his inactivity under the absolute rule of Caesar.
