Mentula’s as good as thirty acres of meadows,
forty of fields: the rest of it’s marsh.
Why shouldn’t he exceed Croesus in riches,
one who possesses so many assets, in land,
meadows, fields, vast woods and pastures and pools
as far as the Hyperboreans, and Ocean’s seas?
All this is great, but he’s the greatest of all,
not a man, but, in truth, a great projecting Cock.
