- ^ According to the interpretation of Nisbet, R. G. M. & Hubbard, M. (1970). A Commentary on Horace Odes Book 1, pp. 317–8. Others see it as a dialogue between a passing merchant and the deceased Archytas; but Nisbet and Hubbard argue that the first sentence of the ode rules this out.

- ^ Horace leaves it unclear to whom the ode is addressed; but Nisbet and Hubbard (1978). A Commentary on Horace Odes, Book ii. Oxford, pp. 77–78, argue that it is more likely that Horace is addressing himself rather than an unnamed friend.
- ^ Pronounced with three long vowels: Bārīnē. The name means "the girl from Bari" (Nisbet & Hubbard (1978), A Commentary on Horace Odes, book ii, p. 125.
- ^ In the last stanza Horace advises Murena "In difficult circumstances, appear courageous and brave"; from which Nisbet and Hubbard (1975, pp. 156–157) deduce that the ode was written at a time when Murena's downfall had already begun (he was to be put to death in 22 BC).

- ^ Housman, Journ. Phil. xxxiii, 1914, p. 72 argued that the spelling -aea is correct.
- ^ It has been argued that two of the lines of this ode (17 and 34) are spurious. On this, and on the ode in general, see: Harrison, S. J. (1990). "The Praise Singer: Horace, Censorinus and Odes 4. 8". The Journal of Roman Studies, 80, 31–43.

"'Vergilius' in Horace Odes 4.12", Phoenix, Vol. 73, No. 3/4, pp. 279–292. Fraenkel (Horace, 1957, p. 418) strongly rejected the identification, but Nisbet and Hubbard (1970, p. 40) think it is "probably" the poet.
