Sin autem prospere cessit, minime manu contingendus pullus erit.Nam laeditur etiam levissimo contactu. Tantum cura adhibebitur, ut et amplo et calido loco cum matre versetur, ne aut frigus adhuc infirmo noceat, aut mater in angustiis eum obterat. Paulatim deinde producendus erit, providendumquc, ne stercore ungulas adurat. Mox cum firmior fuerit, in eadem pascua, in quibus mater est, dimittendus, ne desiderio partus sui laboret equa.
