22 Although written slightly later, “The Life of Horace,” in Alexander Brome’s The
Poems of Horace Consisting of Odes, Satyres, and Epistles, London, 1666, reflects the
practice of reading Horace as a contemporary, in this case treating him as a lapsed
royalist, as someone who had taken the wrong side, only to be pardoned by a
munificent Augustus (A3–A4).
