“Succidia ab suibus cedendis: nam id pecus primum occidere coeperunt domini et ut servarent sallere.”

“An non in magni illius Catonis libro, qui de agri cultura est editus, scripta sunt permulta similia, ut haec, quem ad modum placentam facere oporteat, quo pacto libum, qua ratione pernas sallere?”

1934 translation by W. D. Hooper and Harrison Boyd Ash Why, are there not many such items in the book of the renowned Cato, which he published on the subject of agriculture, such as his recipes for placenta, for libum, and for the salting of hams?
