(?Inde quater pastor saturos ubi clauserit haedos?). ? In Prose 3 of the Arcadia, Sannazaro
borrows from Ovid's account of the Palilia in Fasti 4.
7 Cf. the parenthetical ?quis putet hoc?? in line 29, which Sainati, Studi, p. 204,
interprets as an expression of ?Stupor doloroso?.
8 Discussing the opening lines of the Cumae elegy, Sainati, Studi, p. 201, n. 2,
compares Propertius 4. 1. 1-8. For Propertius, I have consulted Propertius, Elegies I-IV, ed.
and comm. Lawrence Richardson, Jr. (Norman, University of Oklahoma Press, 1977).
9 Discussing Sannazaro's ?sentimento delle rovine?, Sainati, Studi, p. 201, cites
Epigram 2. 35 on the ruins of a Campanian theater. The final distich of the epigram echoes
the Cumae elegy: ? Scilicet, heu fati leges, rapit omnia tempus / Et, quae sustulerat, deprimit
ipsa dies.?
10 On Tibullus 2. 5, see David F. Bright, Haec mihi fingebam: Tibullus in his World
(Leiden, E.J. Brill, 1978), ?Messalinum celebrem?, pp. 66-98, with a thorough review of the
bibliography.

11 For the key-word herba, cf. Ovid, Fasti 5. 93 (?arbor et herbae?), Propert
?Collis et herba fuit?), and Sannazaro (16: ?et tegit nerba deos?).
12 I have used P. Vergili Maronis Aeneidos Libri VII-VII, comm. C.J. For
John D. Christie, with an introduction by P.G. Walsh (Glasgow-Oxford, Oxford
Press, 1977). On Ovid's debt to Virgil, see B?rner, Fasten, 1: 24; for Prop
Richardson, p. 415; for Tibullus, see Bright, pp. 67-70.
13 Commenting on this passage (8. 348), Fordyce notes the parallel in Proper
?fictilibus creuere deis haec aurea templa.?
14 Cf. Sannazaro, Epigram, 2. 35. 5-7 (cited in Sainati, Studi, p. 201): ?H
sueta est cun?is Campana iuventus / amphitheatrales laeta videre iocos? / N
plaususque hominum uocesque canorae...??
15 I cannot agree with the interpretation of Kennedy, pp. 77-79, who views the
Sibyl's cave as a sheep-pen (9-10) as a pastoral ?rehabilitation? or ?takeover? of
scene.
16 See Brooks Otis, Virgil: A Study in Civilized Poetry (Oxford, Clarendon Press,
1963), pp. 330-331. His analysis is aptly summarized in P.G. Walsh's Introduction to
Fordyce's commentary, p. xxv: ?... a further subtlety of structure should be noted. The
events at Pallanteum and in the vale of Caere extend over three days. On the first, the events
of the past are presented (102-369); on the second, the events of the present (454-607); and on
the third, the events of the future, especially as depicted on the shield of Aeneas (608-731).?

17 Cf. Tibullus, 2. 25. 23-24, on the walls of Rome: ? Romulus aeternae nondum
formauerat urbis / moenia.?
18 Sainati, Studi, p. 204.
19 Iacopo Sannazaro, Departu virginis, ed. Antonio Altamura (Naples, Casella, 1948),
p. 37.1 read lines 220-221 as a rhetorical question, as I do lines 23-24 of the Cumae elegy: ?Et
querimur, cito si nostrae data tempora vitae / Diffugiunt??

Besides the theme of fate and the nunc-olim antithesis, the phrase
?sub...diruta mole iaces seems to have inspired Sannazaro's hemistich in
line 14: ?subruta mole iacent. 22 In the next century, meditations like
