The present note is, to some extent, a follow-up to my 2018 WS article in which I discussed the way in which some Late Latin writers, especially of North African origin, use terms denoting the multiples of the as instead of numerals. Here it is demonstrated that the Carthaginian rhetor Favonius Eulogius too belonged to this group of writers. In a locus corruptus in his Disputatio de somnio Scipionis, where all editors starting from the editio princeps print the conjecture decimus ad vicesimum, one should rather read decus ad vi(g)es.
