Vir valde avarus est.
Poma in horto eius pulcherrima sunt,
quasi poma in hortis Alcinoi et in hortis Hesperidum.
Vir poma plurima colligit, sed parce comedit.
Comedere vero non audet, nisi poma iam corrupta sunt.
Vir ille avarus est, sed filius eius liberalis.
Amicos ad pomaria ducit et poma eis dat, dicens,
"Accipite ex his omnia poma quae vultis,
praeter poma corrupta et marcescentia.
Comedere huius modi poma patri meo placet."
Amici huic praecepto libenter obtemperant!
