| Liverani (ad loc. cit.) argues that "At the end of line 4 there is a crux interpretum: the codex relates Leonis in ei / vocata, which G.B. De Rossi, Inscriptiones Christianae Urbis Romae Séptimo Saeculo Antiquiores II (Rome, 1888), 55, corrected as Leonis mei I [pro]vocata. All subsequent editors accepted this version, but the solution is unhappy because in this case the initial impersonal form with the third person (Marinianus . . . persolvit) turns into a first person (Leonis mei), which is very difficult to justify". |
