     Quo certior, quo magis euicta uis deleteria atque antaphrodiſiaca cicutae, eo innocentior Caffeae potus, eo magis occultum, quod in illo nonnulli quaerunt, ſterilitatis uenenum; Communis fere eſt fabula, quod potus Caffeae, illos, qui hoc delectantur, elumbes atque impotentes reddat, contrarium uero docet experientia, cum plures, qui continuo, ad nauſeam usque Caffeae infuſum hauriunt, maxime alacres, maxime ſolertes in bello ueneris ſint.

     [original: Calpurnia was serving Aunt Alexandra more coffee, and she shook her head at what I thought was a pleading winning look. “You’re still too little,” she said. “I’ll tell you when you ain’t.” I said it might help my stomach.]
