PREFACE.
First Edition 1893 Reprinted 1914
This edition of a play, which contains much wit and humor and comparatively little that is objectionable, is intended for use at school or college.
The text is based on the apparatus criticus of Ritschl, but keeps more closely to the mss. than any previous edition. I have ventured on two original suggestions, namely mussauerim, v. 420, for the obviously corrupt mulcauerini of mss., and esse, mei, v. 753, for ei mihi.
My observations on prosody are mainly derived from the work of others; but I have stated the rule for the 'irrational' use of long or apparently long syllables in an improved form, and have made suggestions of my own upon other points.

INTRODUCTION.
THE PLOT.
It would hardly be an exaggeration to say that the Stichns has no plot at all. Little of the interest would be lost if it were divided up into three parts and the names of the characters changed so as to give three disconnected sets of scenes. It is probable that the play was originally divided into three acts, the second, third, and fourth acts of editors forming one original act. This would give 273 verses to the first original act, 367 verses to the second act, which began with the second canticum, and 135 verses to the last act, which ends with a short canticum. The comparative shortness of Act III. (Act V.) would be made up for by there being in addition to the speeches a considerable amount of business. There is no intrigue, no complication and consequently no proper denouement or solution. But there is plenty of interest, owing to the wit and humor of the various scenes. Several of the characters are types. The old man Antipho is a fussy, selfish, easy-going man of the world. Even his daughters, who disappear after the first act and are rather colorless, are carefully sketched. Gelasimus, the parasite, who is really the central figure of the piece, is a well-executed type of his genus: hungry, greedy, impudent, spiteful and servile. He takes part in scenes which occupy 360 verses, while the title character only takes part in scenes which occupy 187 verses.

INTRODUCTION
INTR OD UCTION

There is not much that is distinctive about the brothers Epi-gnomus and Pamphilippus, but a few delicate touches show us that Pamphilippus has a more generous disposition than his brother. The perverse and impertinent Pinacium is doubtless an accurate specimen of the privileged slave, and Crocotium of the pert and flippant (slave) waiting-maid. Stichus is an uninteresting character, possibly because he is a type, as also no doubt are the other slaves, Sagarinus and Stephanium.
ANALYSIS.
Antipho, an elderly, well-to-do citizen of Athens, wishes his two daughters, Philumena and Pamphila, to give up their respective husbands, Epignomus and Pamphilippus, who having become impoverished have left Athens to seek their fortunes and have not been heard of for more than two years, so that they may marry wealthy men.
Act I.
Scene I. Interior of Philumena's (Epignomus') house. Philumena and her younger sister Pamphila enter from the back part of the house. They discuss their husbands' absence and their father's wish that they should marry again. The first 47 lines, though a dialogue, are ranked as a canticum, owing to the kind and variety of metres.
Scene II. Before Philumena's house. Enter Antipho from the spectators' right with a slave in attendance. He grumbles at his slaves for ten lines, and then dismisses his slave. While Antipho looks after the receding slave, his daughters speak from the house as to how they can best get their own way with him. Then Antipho in a soliloquy of thirteen lines decides upon the best way of managing his daughters, stating that he will let them have their own way to avoid a fuss if they are firm. Then his daughters see him and come out of the house. The three converse outside. At the end of the scene Antipho retires and then Pamphila, whereupon Philumena summons her female slave Crocotium to fetch the parasite Gelasimus, that he may go to the port for news.
Act II.
Scene I. Gelasimus is in a street solus. He soliloquises on his hunger and neediness for 41 verses, when Crocotium enters, and after Gelasimus has soliloquised for 36 more verses, he perceives her, and they converse, and Crocotium gives her message.
Scene II. This scene ought to begin v. 266 instead of v. 274. Scene outside Philumena's house. Gelasimus enters from the spectators' right. As he is wondering what Philumena can want, Pinacium enters on the spectators' left in a tremendous hurry with the news that Epignomus has arrived. He is obviously tipsy. Towards the end of the scene, as Pinacium is knocking at the house door, Gelasimus accosts him and they quarrel.
Scene III. Philumena opens her door and finds Pinacium and Gelasimus outside. Pinacium perversely keeps back his news, but bustles about making preparations for an entertainment, and Gelasimus lays himself out to get an invitation. At last Pinacium tells Philumena of her husband's arrival, and she dismisses the parasite.
ACT III.
Scene I. Interior of Epignomus' house. His slave Stichus, his female musicians and probably his parasites and others, are on the stage. Epignomus enters from the back of the house, returns thanks to his gods, and announces that his good fortune has reconciled him to his father-in-law. Then Stichus asks for a holiday, which he gets, and declares his intention of having a dinner with his friend Sagarinus and their common friend Stephanium.
Scene II. Street outside Epignomus' house. Enter Gelasimus in quest of a meal, to try his luck with Epignomus. To him enters Epignomus from the central door. The scene is occupied with the parasite's ineffectual efforts to secure an invitation.

Act IV.
Scene I. Street before Epignomus' house. Enter Antipho and Pamphilippus, probably from the left. They talk of the dinner which they are going to partake of at Epignomus' house. Then Epignomus enters from the central door, and after salutations Antipho points his moral that 'fortune brings friends' by begging a female musician of Epignomus. He then enters the house through the central door of the stage. Hereupon the brothers see Gelasimus approaching.
Scene II. The scene is unchanged. Epignomus and Pamphilippus are on the stage. To them enters Gelasimus. The scene is occupied by the parasite's abortive efforts to get a dinner out of Pamphilippus. Gelasimus' final failure to achieve the object of his hope is the only approach to a denouement in the play.
act V.
This act is devoted to the preparations for Stichus'feast with Pamphilippus' two slaves and to the feast itself, at the close of which the three slaves dance to the music of a tibicen, whom they have engaged.
PROSODY.
The following remarks will supply all the ordinary student need know about Plautus' adaptations of various Greek metres, so far as regards the Stichus.
§ I. Trochaic tetrameter catalectic verses, trochaici septenarii, admit the tribrach and dactyl in the seven complete feet (but only occasionally in the fourth foot, the dactyl rarely in the seventh), the spondee and anapaest in the first six feet, the proceleusmatic (the spondee resolved into four short syllables) seldom except in the first foot.   There is generally diseresis
INTR OD UCTION xi.
after the fourth foot1. This metre is used for dialogue by Plautus more than iambic senarii.
Trochaic tetrameter acatalectic verses, trochaici octonarii, admit the tribrach (anapaest) as well as the spondee in the eighth foot and dactyls and anapaests in the seventh; but are in other respects like septenarii.   See Pers. 5. I.
Iambic trimeter acatalectic verses, iambici senarii, admit in all feet except the last, the spondee (especially in the fifth foot), the dactyl less freely (not often in the fifth foot), the anapaest (rarely in the third foot), the tribrach (very rarely in the fifth foot), and the proceleusmatic occasionally in the first foot, very rarely elsewhere, hardly ever if ever in the fifth foot. There is generally caesura in the third foot, less frequently in the fourth (as in v. 55). Occasionally there is no caesura as in v. 227, ac periura-tiimculas parasiticas.
Iambic tetrameter catalectic verses, iambici septenarii or comici quadrat^ admit spondees freely, and anapaests, dactyls and tribrachs in the first three feet and in the fifth, sixth, and seventh feet, and occasional proceleusmatics (almost exclusively in the odd places, mostly in the first and fifth). There is generally diaeresis after the fourth foot, the last syllable of which is sometimes short, as if at the end of a verse. When there is no diaeresis there is generally caesura in the fifth foot.
Iambic tetrameter acatalectic verses, iambici octonarii, admit iambics only in the eighth foot, and spondees almost always in the seventh foot, while trisyllabic feet and proceleusmatics are rare. When there is no diaeresis after the fourth foot (which is most often an iambic), there is generally caesura in the fifth foot as in vv. 279, 280.
Iambic dimeter acatalectic verses occur vv. 9—17, 34—36, and combined with catalectic tripodies vv. 3—8.
Anapaestic dimeter acatalectic verses admit spondees, dactyls (especially in the odd places, but see vv. 19, 20) and proceleusmatics occasionally in the odd (but see v. 21) places. They

generally have diaeresis between the dipodies, but see v. 25. They generally occur in connected systems ending up with a catalectic verse called a paicemiac, see vv. 30, 48, and occasionally varied by a monometer. Two dimeters are often combined into an acatalectic tetrameter, and these tetrameters, anapaestici octonarii, sometimes form a system ending with a septena?'ius.
Anapaestic tetrameter catalectic verses, anapaestici septenarii, admit spondees and dactyls promiscuously, even dactyls before anapaests.
Anapaestic dimeter catalectic verses occur consecutively W. 313—318, 322—325, the three intervening verses being acatalectic dimeters. These catalectic dimeters consist of spondees, one proceleusmatic, and one anapaest.
Bacchiac tetrameters admit 2nd and 4th paeons (— a molossus (-■*-), whence the Ionic a minori and a maiori ("*w-i—, —and choriambus (— ■*—).   In vv. 43, 44 there are two bacchii, three molossi, and three choriambi.
§ 2. The following are special licenses adopted by early Latin dramatists and in particular by Plautus.
Final -s after a short i or u is frequently ignored in scansion, even in the sixth foot of a senarius, e.g. v. 57, Pers. 1, 3, 64, quid nunc? quid est? quin dicis quid factúrus sis?, or the seventh foot of a trochaic tetrameter catalectic verse, e. g. v. 622, nám hic quidem geniům meliorem túum non fades, éamus, tu.
In trochaic, iambic, and anapaestic verses;—(A) any dissyllabic thesis, and (B) a resolved arsis1 which begins with the beginning of a word, can have the second syllable irrational (a long syllable instead of and scanned as a short syllable).

The frequent shortenings of the first syllable of tile, illic, &c. and isle, istic, &c. have not been included.
It is to be observed that a majority of the above recorded licenses consist in shortening the final syllable of an iambic word, so that the verbal accent may have cooperated with the
INTR OB UCTION xv
metrical ictus in the shortening, and that there are about seven instances of shortening hic, haec, hoc, /tunc, hanc, hinc, hue after another monosyllable. Also in the following instances words which seem to bear the verbal accent get shortened: tametsi (41), sibi esse (125), which is not a certain case, as sibi and tibi are sometimes completely elided, simiilque (.306, 347), sit eccum (527), perinde (520), uidelicet (555, 557), uel Inter (619), sit interim (704), Age ergo ops- (725), tile, illic, intro, iste, and istic. Nearly all the resolved theses in Plautus which exhibit shortening of a long syllable begin with the beginning of a word. In v. 576 perhaps ne quid adu- should be written. Most of the exceptions are cretic words such as reperi, imperii, maxume, pessume, dignidr; but we find pirque conseruitium, Capt. 2. 1. 53.
The syllables which—not being the final syllable of a dissyllabic word or the second of two consecutive monosyllabic words—are abnormally shortened in Plautus according to the rule given and illustrated above may be classified as follows:
1. Those with short vowels before m, n, I, r and another consonant, especially just after a preposition as e~nimuero, ne'e uoliintate, dd incitas, set interim, simiilque, liipum in s-, dge Zrgoj also inde, nempe, iinde. Perhaps the vowel and the nasal or liquid coalesce into a sonant.
2. Those with short vowels before a double consonant, as eccum, cautllationes1, supellectilis, annonam, uicissatim, esse, ille, Philippos.
3. Those with short vowels followed by a consonantal sound combined with a sibilant as uxor, tamltsi, ex, dtra pix (Capt. 3. 4. 64), ministremus, ipsus, iste, dpsonabo, uetustate, scelesius, magistratus.
4. Monosyllabic prepositions, in composition (as age abdiice, ubi accubes, dumque se Uxornat).
5. Syllables containing the stem vowel of the -a, -e, and i conjugations, as uidelicet, uerebamini, imperd, reperi, amdbo.
Some apparent cases of shortening of a long syllable are probably due to syncope, as uoluptas pronounced uolptas, se-
1 This may be a case of synizesis.
xvi
INTR OD UCTI ON
INTR OD UC TI ON
xvii
nectus pronounced senctus. Such a pronunciation probably began with and was most often applied to oblique cases of uoluptas and senectus (see vv. 532, 568).
In most of the cases in Plautus and Terence in which a long syllable is scanned as a short syllable after a monosyllabic word, the monosyllabic word is either quid (interrogative), a personal pronoun, sed, uel, or ut,—placed in approximate order of frequency.
It is probable that Plautus followed colloquial pronunciation in his scansion.
§ 3. Some arbitrary rules have been laid down as to the prosody of Plautus which may be neglected. E.g. "The trochaic caesura of a dactyl is forbidden, save in the first foot," Yet in v. 58 we find se'ruos hom{o) in the fifth foot of a trochaic tetrameter catalectic. Again we are told that gratiam, gratias, filios, otto are only dissyllabic in anapaestic metres; but see v. 71 and Capt. 3. 5. 64, Ergo db eo petito istam gratiam. ducite, Trin. 4. 1. 2, s, 19. Yet again we are told "An anapaest should not be divided in iambic or trochaic verse, so that its first syllable is the last of a dissyllable or polysyllable, or so that its two first syllables are the two last of a polysyllable." But see v. 85 perplexabilitir earum hodie perpaicefaciam pectora, where the third foot must be either -ter ear- or -iter ea-r-, cf. v. 528.
It is not likely that in v. 625 hie is short before quidem, and this remark is also applicable to iam before quidem v. 62.
§ 4. Plautus makes free use of synizesis and often treats i and « as consonants, thus fusing two syllables into one. This process is indicated throughout the text of this edition by italics. For c&tuit, v. 2 cf. iuix. passim and crep«z't, Aul. 4. 5. 5. The converse process, of making iam a dissyllable after nunc, is found vv. 115, 767, 774.
§ 5. Syncope, or the suppression of a short vowel when it is between two consonants which can be conveniently pronounced together, is used in Plautus more freely than in Classical Latin; as alteri, altera pronounced altri, altra.
§ 6. Hiatus is freely admitted by Plautus, but not often except in the following cases:—
1. At the diaeresis or caesura of a verse, e.g. vv. 71, I ft, 435, 459,461,605.
2. At a change of speakers or a marked pause in the sense, eg. vv. 90, 137, 147, 221, 270, 435.
3. After monosyllables ending in a long vowel, diphthong, or -m, the said monosyllable being scanned as short, e.g. vv. 91, 104, 137, 232, 320, 580, 741, 754-
4. When two vowels of the same character come together,
■vv. 459, 587, 648, 671.
5. After an iambic word, e.g. vv. 71, 344. Exceptional cases also occur as in vv. 180, 576, 731.
8 7. Length by position is not given to a vowel before a consonant followed by r or /.
§ 8. In the time of Plautus many vowels of final syllables retained either regularly or occasionally the original long quantity which they afterwards lost.
E.g. the final -a of ita, of the nominative and accusative neuter plural of nouns as oppida, omnia; the final -e of the ablative of the consonantal declension (note cum luct v. 364, de uesperi, Mil. 4. 2. 5), as Pers. 1. 1. 43, pumicě; the termination -ar of the passive first person singular future and subjunctive, the termination -it of the third person singular perfect indicative active, e.g. optigit, v. 384; -it of the third person singular present indicative active of the fourth conjugation, and of fieri; the third person singular active terminations -at, -et (the quantity of sciat, v. 296, is doubtful); the first person singular present indicative passive of the first conjugation; and the nominative of nouns of which the genitive is -oris exhibit -dr, see v. 147. In Plautus es from sum is a long syllable, see v. 363. Perhaps the nominative -es of nouns which have the genitive ending in -Ms, idis, as hospes, miles, diues, obses, praeses, had the e long down to at least the middle of the second century b. c.
On the other hand we find ne frustra sis, and the nominatives illic, istic regularly, and sometimes hie.
§ 9. Plautus is much addicted to alliteration of all kinds and is not averse to rhyme. See vv. 12,13,31,32 (rhyme), 45, 77, 85, 144, ISO, I51 (rhyme), 2o6> 495 (rhyme).

MANUSCRIPTS.
The chief authorities for the text of the Stichus are the following :—A. The Codex Ambrosianus (Milan), a palimpsest. The original writing consists of about two-thirds of the plays of Plautus, and is probably as early as A.D. 550, but it is much defaced, and has had a copy of the Vulgate written over it. For the value of its readings, see Index under " Codex A." They are generally superior to those of other MSS., where there is difference ; but this superiority is not invariable, e.g. v. 511, A gives se aput se for te aput se.
B. The Codex Vetus of Camerarius (Vatican), nth century.
C. The Codex Palatinus (Heidelberg), 12th century.
D. The Codex Ursinianus (Vatican), 12th century.
F. The Codex Lipsiensis, 15th century, Leipzig, a manuscript edition full of fifteenth century conjectures, which is chiefly interesting as the basis of Z, the editio princeps (Venice, 1472), and of most early editions.
The Stichus is a version by Plautus of Menander's *iXd-SeX^oi. The scenes are laid at Athens. The play was produced in Rome, in the consulship of P. Sulpicius Galbus Maximus (II.) and C. Aurelius Cotta, B.C. 200.
* This verse may perhaps be an iambicus octonarius.

1. Interior of Philumena's house. Philumena and Pamphila enter from the back part of the house.
The first two verses seem to be trochaic tetrameter catalectic with the ultima of soror an irrational long, i.e. scanned as short. I follow mss. except as to division of lines. For 7th foot cf. Capt. 4. a. 44.   Ritschl and others alter.
suo Strengthens the phrase ex animo.
2. uidua caruit ' Was desolate
through the absence of.' For synezesis see p. xvi. § 4.
3.   factis ' Experience.'
7. soror The original length of the ultima is preserved, cf. v. itf. adside Cf. v. 92, Adside hie, pater. mss. have turn multa before uolo. Ritschl reads,—Set hue, soror, ddsiesdum: \ Void loqui de re uiri. But adesdum is hardly support enough for the enclitic with the hortative conjunctive (adsies being the old form of adsis, cf. Gk. et-qs for &sly\i).

14. officio uti ' Is acting the part of.' Cf. off. fungi, Auct. Her. 4. 34. 46.
18—28. An anapaestic system followed by five anapoestic dimeters. Note the irrational long syllable after metrical accent of dactyl me sórôr s., vv. 18, 20 (cf. nam viri, v. 29 and v. 41); and
the proceleusmatic decet: neque id, v. 28 (cf. v. 47); and Ulum, v. 23, illic, v. 24, istuc, v. 26.
18. uitae... satur ant 'Make me weary of life.' An unsupported use of saturare as if satiare. For the gen. cf. satur with gen. as Ter. Ad. 5. i. 3, omnium rer urn satur.
20. animo Dat. The sense is— 'and do not distress your mind.' The father was threatening literal diuidia as well as diuidia =' vexation' (v. 19).
21. pater The ultima is not lengthened by position.
23. istaec Demonstr. pron. of 2nd pers., like istuc, vv. 26, 107.

46. nos Added by Hermann to complete the anaposstic dimeter.
47. The first and third feet of this parcemiac are proceleusmatics, the syllables -cet and -ris being scanned as short.
48. Philumena undergoes a natural revulsion of feeling, and accordingly makes a mild protest against her younger sister's apparent readiness to dissolve her marriage; but she rapidly reverts (v. 53) to acquiescence in the inevitable. Ritschl puts vv. 48—57 in brackets as spurious.

63. patris The .r is silent. Note two consecutive feet ending in -est.
55. augeor 'I am loaded with.' There is a bitter pleasantry in the phrase, as augere in this sense is generally applied to what is desirable. Pamphila has been repressing her fears and her affection, but now she in her turn changes her tone. Whereupon Philumena, v. 57, is moved by her sister's distress to suggest that they should not give in without some effort to get their own way.
57.   quid facto usus sit ' What
we had better do'; cf. v. 61 quod opust facto. The participle does not govern quid.
58. Before Philumena's house. Enter Antipho with a slave in attendance, seruos Note the insertion of the antecedent in the subordinate part of the relative clause.
59. uoluntate The second syllable is scanned short, perhaps as a nasal sonant.

they retire, whereupon Antipho turns to the audience and towards the close of his soliloquy approaches the door.

281. pedes hortare The admonition at last (after v. 287) has effect so far as a few irregular steps go, but by the time of v. 290 it has lost its efficacy.
lionesta 'Do credit to your tidings by your deeds.'
287. After this verse Pinacium runs slowly and deviously across the stage, but soon changes his mind  and stops again until v.
308, when he turns and recognises the door.
288. turn lixabundum 'Thus sutler-wise.' Gelasimus alludes both to the leisurely aimless progress which the glosses tell us is suggested by lixabundus, and also to the fact that he is probably carrying some food in the basket about which he displays curiosity v. 321.

422. eleutheriam Suffers pro-delision; for if the last syllable of the first foot were short, the ictus would fall on the ultima of uolo, so that it could not well be short-
ened. For el. capere (mss.), 'to attain freedom,' Ritschl reads eleutheria iam agere, 'to celebrate a feast of liberty on my arrival at home.'

A COMPANION TO GREEK STUDIES
Edited by Leonard Whibley, M.A.
Second edition.  Royal 8vo.   pp. xxx + 672.   With 5 maps, 141 illustrations and 4 indexes.   i8x. net.
Press Notices
"This work is a kind of encyclopaedia in minimo____The amount of
information gathered into seven hundred pages is a marvel____And,
strange to say, the book is quite pleasant to read in spite of its innumerable facts. The printing is admirable and the volume is well illustrated....Mr Whibley is to be congratulated on his book. The country can produce a body of scholars as careful as the Germans...and their judgment is notably sane."—Guardian
"The scheme of the book is good. It is not a mere collection of interesting miscellanea, but a clear and connected account of Greek life and thought, written by scholars who are intimately acquainted with all the latest developments of the subject....The mass of erudition that is packed between its covers is astonishing....It is thorough in the sense that, in the majority of the articles, at least, the substance of our knowledge is given, the essential points are touched upon, and the theories of first-rate importance are concisely stated."—Saturday Review
"It is a handbook that no one will be ashamed to own and consult, a handbook that will be sure to fill a place not only in libraries designed for the young, but also on the desk of the teacher, and on the shelves of the scholar....It is a good book worthy of English scholarship."
Journal of Education
"The completeness of the scope is obvious. The excellence of the work is guaranteed by the names of the contributors. The volume should be on the Greek library shelves of every school where Greek is seriously taught. Not for reference merely; it will be read with avidity, apart from task-work, by any boy that has the root of the matter in him. The book is beautifully printed and produced."—Educational Times
"This is an admirable book, in design and execution alike....The choice of writers is above reproach....Secondly, the choice of matters is good____Thirdly, the book is readable: it is not merely a work- of reference____The pages are full of illustrations from art, Realien, inscriptions,
manuscripts; the printing is worthy of the Press; and the whole book is good to look upon."—Cambridge Review

A COMPANION TO LATIN STUDIES
Edited by Sir John Edwin Sandys, Litt.D., F.B.A.
Second edition.  Royal 8vo.  pp. xxxv + 891.   With 2 maps, 141 illustrations and 4 indexes,    i&s. net.
Press Notices
"Dr Sandys and his collaborators have produced a notable book of reference, within a manageable compass—The work appears to have been done extremely well, and the immense amount of information is presented tersely and intelligibly....The illustrations are good and adequate."—-Journal of Hellenic Studies
"A useful and erudite work, which represents the best results ot Latin scholarship, and whose bibliographies will be found invaluable to students. The scope of the book is wide. There is no side of intellectual, political or administrative life upon which it does not touch. Ethnology, public antiquities, private antiquities, the army, the arts and literature all have their place in this classical encyclopaedia, whose full indexes make it an admirable work of reference.... We cannot repay the debt we owe to the Romans otherwise than by a loyal understanding of their history and their literature, and to those who ask a guide we can commend no surer one than this widely planned, well executed Companion of Dr Sandys."—Observer
"In the single volume before us it is really possible for the first time to obtain a conspectus of almost all that is definitely known about Roman environment, life, and thought....The Book is a thesaurus of sane learning in a readable form. Varro or Pliny or St Isidore of Seville would have studied it with a growing wonder and enlightenment ; for not Rome only, but the history of all knowledge about Rome, is here recalled to its first beginnings."—Times
"This volume is a complete cyclopaedia of Roman studies; and in nearly 900 pages and half a million words contains the carefully adjusted result of recent inquiries into every department of Latin lore. It is, in a very remarkable degree, accurate, complete and abreast of modern discovery; and we congratulate the University, the contributors, and the editor on the signal success of an ambitious project."
Saturday Review
"This book gives us a masterly brief survey of the antiquities and literature of Rome....Fortunate is the student with A Companion to Latin Studies on his shelves."—Daily News
