bubo in aede Fortunae equestris comprehensus inter manus expiravit. Faesulis fremitus terrae auditus. puer ex ancilla natus sine foramine naturae, qua humor emittitur. mulier duplici natura inventa. fax in caelo visa. bos locuta. examen apium in culmine privatae domus consedit. Volaterris sanguinis rivus manavit. Romae lacte pluit. Arretii duo androgyni inventi. pullus gallinaceus quadripes natus. fulmine pleraque icta. supplicatio fuit. populus Cereri et Proserpinae stipem tulit. virgines viginti septem carmen canentes urbem lustraverunt. Medorum in Macedonia gens provinciam cruente vastavit. | An owl was caught in the temple of Fortune by an equestrian and died in his hands. At Faesulae roaring was heard from the earth. A boy was born of a slave-girl without an aperture in his genitals through which urine might pass. A woman was found with two sets of genitalia. A torch was seen in the sky. A bull spoke. A swarm of bees settled on the rooftop of a private house. At Volaterrae a river flowed with blood. At Rome it rained milk. At Arretium two hermaphrodites were found. A farm-yard chicken was born with four-feet. Many places were struck by lightning. There was a ceremony of supplication. The people bore contributions to Ceres and Proserpina. Twenty seven maidens lustrated the city singing a song. In Macedonia the tribe of the Maedi cruelly ravaged the province. |
