20. To Caecilianus -
What crazy trick is this you do?
Your guests look on amazed and rueful:
You bade them come to dine with you,
And now you gobble every truffle!
What sort of dainty ought to fill
That monstrous maw, you greedy sinner?
You'd eat if I could have my will
The truffles served for Claudius' dinner.
