^{page 40 note 3} We can take the title Ovid Recalled how we please—‘recalled’ from literary exile; or ‘recalled’ to the box in his own defence; or ‘recalled’ to the reader's mind as a memory of school-days. Unfortunately, school-reading is usually confined to the Heroides, Fasti, and Tristia, the very three which Macaulay found ‘least palatable’. Mr. Wilkinson shares his distaste, at any rate for the Heroides.
