Anne ego, inquam, sequar Sasernarum patris et filii libros ac magis putem pertinere, figilinas quem ad modum exerceri oporteat, quam argentifodinas aut alia metalla, quae sine dubio in aliquo agro fiunt? Sed ut neque lapidicinae neque harenariae ad agri culturam pertinent, sic figilinae.
Am I, then, said I, to follow the writings of the elder and the younger Saserna, and consider that how to manage clay-pits is more related to agriculture than mining for silver or other mining such as undoubtedly is carried out on some land? But as quarries for stone or sand-pits are not related to agriculture, so too clay-pits.
