Exempla

“1st century, L. Iunius Moderatus Columella, De Res Rustica, Book VI, Preface, Sect. 3”

And so it is that iumenta and armenta draw their names from the fact that they aid our work either by bringing up burdens or by plowing.

“Aliī nōn Diānae, sed Apollinī Nomiō cōnsecrātum carmen hoc volunt, quō tempore Admētī rēgis pāvit armenta.”

Others want this poem consecrated not to Diana, but to Apollo the Pasturer, when he tended to the draft animals of king Admetus.
