Quemadmodum
nomenclatori memoriae loco audacia est et, cuicumque nomen non potest reddere, imponit, ita poetae
non putant ad rem pertinere verum dicere, sed aut
necessitate coacti aut decore corrupti id quemque
vocari iubent, quod belle facit ad versum. Nec illis
fraudi est, si aliud in censum detulerunt ; proximus
enim poeta suum illas ferre nomen iubet. Hoc ut
scias ita esse, ecce Thalia, de qua cum maxime
agitur, apud Hesiodum Charis est, apud Homerum
Musa.
