Note to GunnLeif Merl I 17VIII

[All]: Cf. DGB 111 (Reeve and Wright 2007, 145.28-30): Praeualebat autem albus draco rubeumque usque ad extremitatem lacus fugabat. At ille, cum se expulsum doluisset, impetum fecit in album ipsumque retro ire coegit ‘The white dragon began to get the upper hand and drove the red to the edge of the pool. But it was irked at being driven back and attacked the white, forcing it back in turn’ (Reeve and Wright 2007, 144).
