Another hypothesis concerning the grammar and meaning of Inter eils goticum

| St. Petersburg State University
In the Germanic part of the epigram, Inter eils goticum scapia matzia ia drincan, preserved in Codex Salmasianus, it seems most reasonable to isolate scapia and gloss it as the 1st person sg. of the verb corresponding to Gothic skapjan ‘make’.

Intereilsgoticum scapiamatzia iadrincan

Non audet quisquam dignos edicere uersus.

Calliope madido trepidat se iungere Baccho,

Ne pedibus non stet ebria Musa suis.
