Riassunto

Excerpt from An Edict of Diocletian: Fixing a Maximum of Prices Throughout the Roman Empire, A. D. 303

As M. Vescovalt 8 copy is a facsimile, I have followed it lite rally as far as it goes, noting the variantes in the transcripts of Sherard and Bankes as far as they appeared to be of any importance. For the conclusion of the Decree, and the en tire List oi Commodities, l have followed Mr. Bankes's copy, noting the variations in Sherard's, whose transcript does not contain a catalogue half so long as that of Mr. Bankes, nor is it so complete as far as it extends The original copiers or engravers of the Decree having continually confounded B with U or V, and E with E, I have not thought it necessary to follow these errors in the parts taken from Sherard and Bankes, but have written the words in the usual orthography: in like manner I have occasionally corrected, but in this instance not without a sign of indication those evident mistakes of one letter for another, which have been caused either by the ig norance of the original engravers, or by the doubtful appear ance which many of the characters, rudely formed at first, and now half obliterated by time, may have presented to the eyes of the modern transcriber.
