Seneca's work is named with a specific chapter and used as authority twice
This Seneca, in the 15th chapter of his sixth book on benefits, proves by many instances, which he concludes with the following observation, “the price of every thing must be regulated by the market, and notwithstanding all your praises, it is worth nothing more than it can be sold for.
chapter xii.: on contracts. ¶
The harvest records where a citation is made: the paragraph in the citing book, and the chapter that paragraph stands in. It does not record which page of this text is meant. Where the citing text names a locus, you will find it in the quotation.

- beside a chapter, the passages anchored there. A single citation can quote more than one passage, which is why a row carries two figures: the citations the harvest recorded, and the passages its chapters add up to.
Every row here is derived from the harvest, not curated: the citation ledger holds the whole of it, and the atlas states the method.
