Mead, [1906]\nAn intermediate of the parent copy of our Corpus in every probability lay before Fulgentius. Thus we find him (p. 26, 18 H 2) referring to the first sermon, though barbarously enough, in the phrase: \u201cHermes in Opinandre libro,\u201d and quoting from the introductory words; he also quotes (p. 88, 3) some words from C. H., xii. (xiii.), stupidly referring them to Plato, adding in Greek:\nThe human mind is god; if it be good, God [then] doth shower His benefits [upon us].\nAnd twice (p. 85, 21, and p. 74, 11) Fulgentius refers in all probability to the lost ending of \u201cThe Definitions of Asclepius,\u201d in the latter passage telling us, \u201cas Hermes Trismegistus says,\u201d that there were three kinds of music,\u2014namely \u201cadomenon, psallomenon, aulumenon,\u201d\u2014that is, singing, harping, and piping.\n305:1 The date of this Afro-Latin writer cannot be later than the sixth century.\n305:2 Helm (R.), Fabii Planciadis Fulgentii V.
