consimili ratione herbas quoque saepe decebat et latices dulcis guttas similique sapore mittere, lanigerae quali sunt ubere lactis, scilicet et glebis terrarum saepe friatis herbarum genera et fruges frondesque videri dispertita inter terram latitare minute, postremo in lignis cinerem fumumque videri, cum praefracta forent, ignisque latere minutos.
In the same way it were fitting that herbage also and water should often emit drops sweet and of like flavour to the milk from the udders of fleecy ewes; and assuredly, when clods of earth have been crumbled, various kinds of herbage ought often to be seen, and corn, and leaves, scattered about and lurking amid the earth in small portions; lastly, when wood is broken, smoke and ashes and fire should be seen lurking in small portions.
