=% Preface S. t. e. q. v. b. e. Hoc quod dicimus connotat nunc nihil. Ergo cape hoc cum gcano salis. Cur est hoc librum? Non scimus. Non est altus caput-cover, sed quo modo ex sow ' s earibus possimus extrahere pursum silki? Quod voltis nickelo? Ergo Ecce. Handy Literal Translation IF you and the army carry yourselves in good health, receive our felicita- tions. This trifle which you are about to peruse, being a work, neither an abundant-flowing of sharp-edged wit, nor an unspotted offering to the gods; but a rustic laurel dug with unwearying labor from the bristling garden of our spirits: to be quaffed with the shining paternal salt cellar on the loaded board. In the newly-opened spring, when cold moisture descends from the snow-covered hills; and when the willows are prolific with twigs; the little ear-bearing sows come jumping over the teeming earth in flocks, uttering cries to their fettered spouses; then having trapped them with wide-spreading snares and hard-knotted ropes of the unyielding vine; we, their ears having been plucked, of them endeavered to skilfully manufac- ture purses of the Oriental silk. And now is to drink the generous Falernian and beat upon the ground with pulsing foot soaked with ample wine, leaving the dry cracker crumbed in the long-standing urn: and joyous amidst our cups to dance in the soft meadows on wine-skins smeared with oil. and roast the fat entrails upon hazel spits.
