Oops -- forgot the last bit. :oops:

Officium autem viri spectabilis ducis Arabia et praesidis habet ita:
The staff of the same most admirable dux of Arabia and praeses (technically a frontier commander) is as follows:

Principem de scola agentum in rebus.
Chief of staff, from the schola of secret agents

Numerarios et adiutores eorum.
Accountants and their assistants

Commentariensem.
A records officer

Adiutorem.
An assistant

A libellis siue subscribendarium.
A receiver of petitions or under-secretary

Exceptores et ceteros officiales.
Scribes and other officials

Item officium praesidis eiusdem provinciae:
And in the office of the praeses of the same province:

Principem de eodem officio.
A chief of staff

Cornicularium.
An adjutant

Ordinarios.
? Regular staff ? (afaik This is the only place where this word appears in the ND)

Commentariensem.
A records officer

Numerarios et adiutores eorum.
Accountants and their assistants

Adiutorem.
An assistant

A libellis siue regerendarium.
A receiver of petitions or confidential clerk

Exceptores et ceteros officiales.

The good news is that (afaik) Peter Brennan is supposedly working on an English translation for Liverpool University Press in the "Translated Texts for Historians" series. I think ... Smile
