Nec tamen omnimodis conecti posse putandum est omnia; nam volgo fieri portenta videres, semiferas hominum species existere, et altos interdum ramos egigni corpore vivo, multaque conecti terrestria membra marinis, tum flammam taetro spirantis ore Chimaeras pascere naturam per terras omniparentis.
However, it must not be thought that all can be conjoined in all ways: for then you would commonly see monstrosities come into being, shapes of men arising that would be half beasts, lofty branches at times sprouting from a living body, parts of terrestrial creatures often conjoined with creatures of the sea, Chimaeras again, breathing flame from noisome throats, pastured by nature over the lands that produce everything.
