Cum porci depulsi sunt a mamma, a quibusdam delici appellantur neque iam lactantes dicuntur, qui a partu decimo die habentur puri, et ab eo appellantur ab antiquis sacres, quod tum ad sacrificium idonei dicuntur primum.
Pigs when weaned are by some people no longer called sucking-pigs, but delici or shoats. On the tenth day after birth they are considered pure, and for that reason the ancients called them sacres, because they are said to be fit for sacrifice first at that age.
