Excerpt from P. Papini Stati Thebais
Silvas atque Achilleidem postquam paucis ante annis recensuìmus, restabat manus multo difficilius atque amplius Thebaidis edendae. Nam in Silvis uno codice contentum esse licuìt, ìn Achilleide paucis. At longe aliter res se habet in Thebaide. Quae cum inde decimo saecula usque ad quin tum decimum saepissme transcripta. Sit, plurimi eius operis codices aetatem tulerunt. Ex his qui mihi innotuerunt qui busque usus textum constitui, prim0 capite describam. Dein cum in duas aberint stirpes (p et w) codices Thebaidis, de codicum altera stirpe agam, tertio capite quae ratio inter cedat inter hanc stirpem et Puteaneum quaerendum crit. In ealce praefafi0nis nomina. Eorum, qui in apparatu critico com memorabuntur, te quo quisque loco sua. Protulerit, indicabo.
