uenitur10. non enim incertum11 tempus uidetur significare quod plerunque12 in feminino genere inuenimus singularis numeri. Ideo autem diximus ‘plerunque’ quod13 inuenitur14 in usu et pro certo tempore femininum15 et pro incerto masculinum16. Virgilius in II:
- Venit summa dies17…
Lucretius in III:
- non usque adeo permiscuit imis
- Longus summa dies18…
Idem Statius:
…‘hic meridies21,’ certum enim significat tempus diei. Terentius in Adelphis:
…Ceres24 Cereris. Excipitur ‘hic uerres’ appellatiuum cum porcum25 significat.

10. since it is a certain time that it signifies in its plural, therefore it is masculine, for when thou sayest dies the number of days of which thou so speakest is certain. 11. i.e. in the plural. 12. that uncertain time. 14. although this would be regular: uncertainty in it when it is feminine and certainty when it is masculine. 15. (the feminine) to express certain time. 16. the masculine is found to express uncertain time. 17. Panthous said to Aeneas: ‘The certain hour of Troy’s destruction has come’: that is an example for certain time in the feminine. 18. this is an example for the expression of uncertain time by the masculine, for here dies does not express a certain time. 20. another example of (lit. for) uncertainty in the masculine. 23. i.e. when he collected. 24. goddess of wheat.
