[1] Sed Iulius Atticus praetorto capite et recurvato, ne pastinum 5 effugiat, praedictum semen demersit. Pastinum autem vocant agricolae ferramentum bifurcum, quo semina panguntur. Unde etiam repastinari dictae sunt vineae veteres quae refodiebantur, haec enim propria appellatio restibilis vineti erat; nunc antiquitatis imprudens consuetudo ¹²³⁴⁵ quicquid emoti soli vineis praeparatur, repastinatum vocat. Sed redeamus ⁶ad propositum.
