The greater part of these notes appeared in 1881 as 'Pars Tertia' of the 'Otium Norvicense.' They are here reprinted, with additions which may be classified under two heads: first, notes which Dr Field at his death left in the final stages of their preparation for publication, and, secondly, supplementary illustrations from classical sources which he had jotted down in the margin of his own copy of the 'Otium.' --from the Preface
