Trygaeus

Friends, do you remember the happy life that Peace afforded us formerly; can you recall the splendid baskets of 575 figs, both fresh and dried, the myrtles, the sweet wine, the violets blooming near the spring, and the olives, for which we have wept so much? Worship, adore the goddess 580 for restoring you so many blessings.
