“Insicia ab eo quod insecta caro, ut in Carmine Saliorum est, quod in extis dicitur nunc prosectum.”

1938 translation by Roland G. Kent Insicia ‘minced meat’ from this, that the meat is insecta ‘cut up,’ just as in the Song of the Salii the word prosicium ‘slice’ is used, for which, in the offering of the vitals, the word prosectum is now used.

“Isicia fiunt marina de cammaris et astacis de lolligine, de sepia, de locusta. Isicium condies pipere, ligustico, cumino, laseris radice.”
