It is true that there are two or three allusions among the grammarians to passages and verses which are not now found in the six books; allusions which have led to the belief that there were more books, but which, with other considerations, led Spalding, the editor of Quintilian,3 to the suspicion that there were two editions given by the author himself, and that, though the second was generally followed, the first was not quite forgotten.
