Corresponding Scholia are also found in the fragments of Aarau. As an instance of the way in which the lemmata prove a reading we may take viii. 155, to which there is a scholion, "robumque, i.e. robustum: rufum: unde Hercules robus dictus est"; while an example of a reading being suggested by the interpretation of the scholiast is furnished in the same Satire, line 157, where the scholion on the word Eponam is "quia mulio est qui consul fertur; Epona dea mulionum est." Other examples might easily be collected from the apparatus criticus. The Scholia which Valla published in his edition, though somewhat fuller, have a general resemblance to those in P. Valla himself attributes them to Probus, not of course the Valerius Probus of Berytus, since he flourished in Nero's reign. It does not, however, seem possible to fix their authorship. Valla's Scholia only go as far as Sat. viii. 197. In the apparatus criticus readings in any way suggested or confirmed by the Scholia, whether in P. or the Codex Sangallensis, are symbolised by S. It only remains to notice two interesting fragments of a palimpsest MS. belonging to the interpolated class, but probably going back as far as the fifth or sixth century; these are the so-called Fragmenta Bobiensia (from the Irish monastery of Bobio in N. Italy), now in the Vatican, written in uncials, and containing only Sat. xiv. 323xv. 43.
