DECEMBER. / Delitet in tenebris, dum lux Phœbæa fatiscit, / Cereaq(ue), exanquis lumina portat anus. / Nec tamen illa latens Iudæum porca Decembrem / Arguit, hos iugolos horret Apella sacer. / Sus immunda placet nobis. his vivimus extis. / Dummodo cœnosum proluat vnda pecus. / Optima Sus, quoties tua testamenta resignas. / Me dic, hæredem suminis esse tui.
