Qui caprinum gregem constituere vult, in eligendo animadvertat oportet primum aetatem, ut eam paret, quae iam ferre possit fructum, et de iis eam potius, quae diutius; novella enim quam vetus utilior.
One who decides to assemble a flock of goats should, in choosing his animals, have regard first to age, picking those of the age which is already capable of bringing in a profit, and this age preferably the one which can bring it longer; for the young goat is more profitable than the old.
