“non igitur ex alitis involatu nec e cantu sinistro oscinis, ut in nostra disciplina est, nec ex tripudiis solistimis aut soniviis tibi auguror⟳, sed habeo⟳ alia signa quae observem; quae etsi non sunt certiora illis, minus tamen habent vel obscuritatis vel erroris.”

I make a prediction to you, not from the flight of a bird and not from the singing on the left of a bird, in the manner of our system (of augury), nor from the most favorable or noisy eating from the ground (of the sacred birds), but I have other signs that I observe, which though they are not more certain than those, yet nevertheless have less of obscurity or error.

“quae causa eas nuptiis fecit religiosas, tot modis fetu munito, quod est veri similius quam quia cadendo tripudium sonivium faciant.”

It is for this reason that this fruit has been looked upon as a symbol consecrated to marriage, its offspring being thus protected in such manifold ways: an explanation which bears a much greater air of probability than that which would derive it from the rattling which it makes when it bounds from the floor. ― translation from: J. Bostock and H.T. Riley, The Natural History (1855), bk XV, ch. xxiv (xxii)

“Sonivio significat in carmine augurali, sonanti.”

“Sonivium tripudium, ut ait Appius Pulcher, quod sonet, cum pullo⟳ excidit plus, quadrupedive.”
