[6] relata: with especial reference to the form, as perscripta (Catul. 22.5) to the fact, of the writing. Referre commonly takes in this meanmg the accusative with in; but for the ablative with in see Cic. N. D. 1.12.29Democritus imagines earumque circuitus in deorum numero refert” ; Cic. Rosc. Com. 2.5nomen in codice accepti et expensi relatum” (edd. in codicem), and the ablative may be justified by the fact that here relata does not refer to technical entry in a book, but simply to writing in general.
