7 Cf. Cicero, Orator. 62: "Quae nescio cur, cum Graeci ko/mata et kw=la nominent, nos non recte incisa et membra dicamus".
8 Cf. Cicero, de Claris Oratoribus, 44: "Comprehensio et ambitus ille verborum (si sic periodum appellari placet.)".
10 The only apparent difference between membrum and caesum is, that the former is the longer of the two. It is impossible to express the difference in English.
