090 : ' Hi Soraetis habent arces; ' and id. xi. 785 : * Summe deum, sancti custos Soraetis Apollo; ' and Horace, in Od. i. 9 : ' Vides ut alta stet nive candidum Soracte.' It is this last passage that Byron had in mind in saying that the height is ' not now in snow.' The temple of Apollo on the sum- mit, to which Virgil alludes, is replaced by the modern church of San Silvestro." — Rnlfe.
666. lyric Roman. Horace. See note above.
668, 669. Heaves like a long-swept -wave, etc. Cf. this with Matt...hew Arnold's notable simile in Sohrah and Rusium: — For we are all, like swimmers in the sea, Poised on the top of a huge wave of fate, Which hangs uncertain to which side to fall.
And whether it will heave us up to laud, Or whether it will roll us out to sea.
Back out to sea, to the deep waves of death, We know not, and no search will make us know; Only the event will teach us in its hour.
672. I abhorred, etc. Byron's temperament did not easily accord with the routine of classical studies as pursued at Harrow and at Cambridge.
