XXIV

Non bonus agricolis nec frugibus utilis hospes
Nec magnus forma nec recto nomine dictus
Nec gratus Cereri de multa vivo sagina.

Peck:

To farmers and their crops no useful guest,
Though small, they think me still a mighty pest.
And Ceres loves me not, I eat with too much zest.

Ohl:

No good to farmers, to the crops no useful guest, not great in size nor by my right name called, not pleasing to Ceres, no small store I consume.
