Note 033
The Greek historians afford some faint hints of the
wars of Italy (Menander, in Excerpt. Legat. p. 124, 126.
Theophylact, l. iii. c. 4.) The Latins are more satisfactory; and
especially Paul Warnefrid, (l iii. c. 13 - 34,) who had read the
more ancient histories of Secundus and Gregory of Tours.
Baronius produces some letters of the popes, &c.; and the times
are measured by the accurate scale of Pagi and Muratori.]
