[Footnote 15: For the name and nation, the situation and
manners, of the Sclavonians, see the original evidence of
the vith century, in Procopius, (Goth. l. ii. c. 26, l. iii.
c. 14,) and the emperor Mauritius or Maurice (Stratagemat.
l. ii. c. 5, apud Mascon Annotat. xxxi.) The stratagems of
Maurice have been printed only, as I understand, at the end
of Scheffer's edition of Arrian's Tactics, at Upsal, 1664,
(Fabric. Bibliot. Graec. l. iv. c. 8, tom. iii. p. 278,) a
scarce, and hitherto, to me, an inaccessible book.]
