Excerpt from De Conpendiosa Doctrina I-III: Edited With Introduction And Critical Apparatus Mr. Onions' text differs from its predecessors in three points; first, in its close adherence to the manuscripts1 second, in being based on a personal collation of all the older mss. Known to exist last, and most important of all, in its use of what is practically a new ms. And one of. The highest value, I mean the corrections in the Florence codex, which are indicated in the critical notes by the sign F3. One point in which he differs from the last editor should be noticed. While Prof. Mueller aimed at presenting Nonius' quotations in their original form, the form in which we may suppose the author to have written them, Mr. Onions seeks only to print the line as Nonius quoted it.

The references in quotations from Plautus are to the new Ritschl edition, in quotations from the Tragic and Comic fragments to Ribbeck's second edition, in quotations from Varro's Menippean Satires to the edition by Buecheler.
