The text itself has been prepared by a comparison of the editions

of 1634 and 1635. It should be borne in mind that Casaubon's is

often rather a paraphrase than a close translation; and it did

not seem worth while to notice every variation or amplification

of the original. In the original editions all that Casaubon

conceives as understood, but not expressed, is enclosed in square

brackets. These brackets are here omitted, as they interfere with

the comfort of the reader; and so have some of the alternative

renderings suggested by the translator. In a few cases, Latin

words in the text have been replaced by English.

Numbers in brackets refer to the Teubner text of Stich, but the

divisions of the text are left unaltered. For some of the

references identified I am indebted to Mr. G. H. Rendall's Marcus

Aurelius.

BOOK II "Both to frequent" (4). Gr. τὸ μή, C. conjectures τὸ μὲ.

The text is probably right: "I did not frequent public lectures,

and I was taught at home."
