The article examines two problematic instances of hyperbaton in Petronius. In the first, usually corrected conjecturally, the word order is probably sound but corrupted by an interpolation (31.11 fuerunt et thumatula supra craticulam feruentia argenteam [posita]). In the second, the hyperbaton is disrupted by the erroneous displacement of an integration using a signal-word (31.11 aut quod purgamentum in nocte calcasti [in triuio] aut cadaver?), a correctional technique attested elsewhere in the Petronian tradition.

Abstract
The article examines two problematic instances of hyperbaton in Petronius. In the first, usually corrected conjecturally, the word order is probably sound but corrupted by an interpolation (31.11 fuerunt et thumatula supra craticulam feruentia argenteam [posita]). In the second, the hyperbaton is disrupted by the erroneous displacement of an integration using a signal-word (31.11 aut quod purgamentum in nocte calcasti [in triuio] aut cadaver?), a correctional technique attested elsewhere in the Petronian tradition.
