Namque Ceres fertur fruges, Liberque liquoris
Vitigeni laticem mortalibus instituisse .

Aratus, Phantom. v.
"He, Jupiter, to the human race
Indulgent, prompts to necessary toil
Man provident of life; with kindly signs
The seasons marks, when best to turn the glebe
With spade and plough, to nurse the tender plant,
And cast o' er fostering earth the seeds abroad."
