Publisher Description
Among the 100 three-line hexameter riddles of Symphosius in the Anthologia Latina is one on the snail, No. 18: (1) In line 3 nearly all our MSS have the perplexing concilium; the two variants, consilium and the vox nihili conchilium, each have only slender MS support. (2) Castalio's conchylium is unmetrical (in Latin the y is long) and senseless (the word means 'shellfish').
