In C. vero Fabricii et Q. Aemilii Papi, principum saeculi sui, domibus argentum fuisse confitear oportet: uterque enim patellam deorum <causa> et salinum habuit, sed eo lautius Fabricius quod patellam suam corneo pediculo sustineri voluit.
I ought to confess that there was silver in the houses of C. Fabricius and Q. Aemilius Papus, the leading men of their epoch. Both had a dish for worship of the gods and a salt cellar, but Fabricius was the more luxurious because he had his dish rest on a base of horn.
