Photographs for Aeneid IV are in the possession of my friend and collaborator on Volume III of the "Harvard Servius," Professor Albert H. Travis, of the University of California. They could not be borrowed without serious interference to his work on another phase of the Servius problem.
There are occasional omissions, probably inadvertent, e. g., scholia on A. III, 547 (Th. 435, 10); A. V, 107 (Th. 605, 4); A. V, 209 (Th. 614, 2); A. V, 300 (Th. 619, 17).
E. g., in the binding over fol. 81v (Aen. III, 93-125) and fol. 88r (Aen. III, 522-554), all the DS found in F from "cognomines fecisse" (Th. 361, 19) through "credidisse" (Th. 365, 25), 41 lines in F.
E. g., at A. III, 20 (Th. 339, 23) G omits "nisi in patriis . . . cœptorum (Th. 339, 26) and the 19 lines of DS comment that follow in the left margin of F, to MVLTA MOVENS ANIMO (A. III, 34; Th. 342, 7). Such breaks are found also beginning at Th. 353, 18 (42 lines of F), Th. 376, 8 (17 lines of F), Th. 381, 11 (19 lines of F), et alibi.
On A. V, 413; A. V, 415; and A. V, 416 ("GEMINIS duobus," wrongly printed by Thilo with A. V, 415).
We are not concerned at this point with omission of whole scholia (cf. f.n. no. 19, above) or more extensive omission seemingly resulting from the inability of G to crowd onto his page everything that is in the left margin of F, ad loc. (cf. f.n. no. 21, above.)
E. g., A. III, 321 (Th. 398, 12) inmanior . . . alios] F om. G A. III, 330 (Th. 399, 21) post a Menelao . . . desponsatam (23)] F om. (mg. suppl.) G A. III, 506 (Th. 430, 1) nominati . . . altitudinem] F om. (mg. suppl.) G A. V, 64 (Th. 598, 22) novendiales . . . sepeliebantur] F om. G
E. g., on A. III, 332 (Th. 401, 2); A. III, 426 (Th. 418, 18); A. III, 500 (Th. 428, 24); A. V, 105 (the whole note); A. V, 208 (Th. 618, 17), A. V. 296 (Th. 619, 8); A. V, 484 (Th. 629, 2), and A. V, 613 (Th. 637, 17).
